What is something you completely changed your opinion on after you experienced it?

Cats. I was always strictly a Dog Person, but then I had cat ownership foisted upon me, and not only do I love my two little dudes to bits, I like cats in general now, too.

Similar thing with me. I didn't mind cats, I'd just never had much personal experience with them (outside of seeing friends' cats run around their houses). Our family had always had dogs, too.

But then my mom and I adopted a cat and she was the sweetest thing and we fell in love with her pretty darn quick and now I would be more than happy to have another cat someday :).

(Still love dogs, too, though. I'll take either one as a pet. Or both :p.)

You know those stories where girls are on vacation or out with friends and they end up getting kidnapped or whatever? I always used to wonder what friends would just leave you alone like that. The Natalee Holloway case in particular.

Fortunately none of my friends was ever kidnapped, but I was on a trip with a friend and due to half panic, half just not thinking, we went our separate ways while on our way to a particular place. She never showed up, and for hours I was convinced she'd been murdered or something, and I realized how easily things can get confusing and bad things happen as a result. And we weren't even drunk, just flustered - oftentimes the people in these stories have been drinking.

(Not to mention it comes close to victim blaming.)

I totally get this. I once went out with two friends and some other people they knew. The three of us were going to spend the night at Friend A's house after because it was too far for me and friend B to go home. Friend B was going through a nasty break-up after being together for gazillions of years so she was acting up a bit, flirting and getting drunk. It wasn't completely surprising that she wanted to stay and we wanted to go. But Friend A and B knew plenty of other people there and figured it was safe. I don't really sleep all that well in strange surroundings and I was supposed to share a bed with Friend B so I kept expecting to be woken up by her coming in. But she never showed. I didn't know what to do. She was an adult, and maybe she had let Friend A know...But basically I barely slept all night. I told Friend A about it the next morning and she just rolled her eyes and said 'yeah she probably went home with that guy' and that I was 'such a mom'. And yes, she had gone home with a guy and it turned out fine, but I still thought it was weird that worrying was considered weird. I'd want people to worry if I stayed gone all night without letting people know.

A similar thing happened to me with a relative once. I was up all night expecting to hear them return and at one point I thought I was going to vomit I was that worried. Turned out they'd just stayed the night with a friend and returned safely the next day. I don't think I've ever told them how much it affected me.

I didn't use to think white privilege was a thing. But then, even people who are supposed to be your friends, and who have made it very clear they're not racist or prejudiced, end up disappointing you with my nigga jokes. And then they wonder why I don't laugh. Like it's somehow my obligation to make them feel better about what they just did.

"C'mon, it's a joke! Lighten up!" Sure buddy. Sure.
