OP, some helpful advice for once: start focusing on enjoying your life and loving yourself first and foremost. It's a sad reality but a reality nonetheless that most people in life -- in fact probably…

People are everything. They're fickle, they're stupid, they're disagreeable, they shove you away at times, they're not solid...but they're also beautiful, and dependeable, and deep like the sea, and e…

I’ve had two aspects of this come up in therapy.  I’m kind of surprised how much I have to describe to my therapist about what Jonice Webb calls the Fatal Flaw—the conviction that there is something …

I saw that post not long ago and I had to block as many people as possible. I made the mistake of trying to suggest avoidants are not always the problem under another video and it was met with the pre…

This group here seems like a reasonable example. It's moderated in such a way that random anxious people can't just hijack the sub, blaming us for their bf/gf breaking up with them. Avoidant-leaning f…

It was a loose suggestion that everyone come in costume, I wasn't expecting anyone else to dress up, but everyone did! So I was snow white, my best friend was Rapunzel, one of our oldest friends found…

He was such a cutie pie. Evil, but a cutie pie.

>The main thing they all agree upon is that the world is all suffering Not a single one says that. That's your interpretation, and the first indicator to you that your interpretation is biased is som…

Fair point. No one *is* evil, for evil is a no-thing. It cannot create or bring good into being; it is a lack of good, truth, and beauty. People *do* evil things. Hurt people hurt people.

Op, you are awesome for this but i have a question: 1. Certain personality disorders by their actions inflict hurt or harm to others: Anti Social and to an extent NPD. When the result of the action i…

I'm sorry you had a bad relationship. You do you. The vast majority of people's exes are not evil, just as the vast majority of people are not evil. Exaggerating the prevalence of evil just reinforce…

I see what you’re saying, but in my mind, the overall actions of a person are a factor. If somebody is a murderer, but they’re a great husband and father, and philanthropist, are they a good person? …

I was in a relationship like this. I told my ex gf a lot of the things your husband told you. She left me in the end for reasons that you said — she had been unkind and terrible to me, and she shouldn…

I'm so sorry that 20 years of your life has been put into this woman. She is so evil, also the fact you had to compromise gifts and not show your love languages accordingly. The fact she was pacing ar…

The Stoic universe operates as a singular, rational organism governed by Pneuma, a divine breath or reason that structures all matter. This universal reason, or Logos, is perfect and consistent. Howev…

Every single one of your points could be an avoidant, and that does not make them a narcissist. Intent behind their actions needs to be known. Avoidants are heavily traumatized, their parents showed t…

The first time I made 6 figures was because the company I worked for KNEW how important goal setting and enjoying the journey was. I made a goal of $120K and surpassed it by $40K. I was in a 100% comm…

This just proves to me that avoidants are inhuman and basically evil. What makes them evil is that their intentions aren’t to be evil, but the impact is. Its fcked beyond belief. Don’t worry, he has…

The depraved, evil, and shameless manner in which my ex stole everything from the house, then tried to subject me (and her next husband) to financial ruin.

I can relate. I already bought the champagne I'm going to pop when I get the news someday. No-contact is the only way with these people. They are irredeemable evil, I don't know how else to say it.

Thanks bro 🥰✨... I hope I can do the same for myself too... Congratulations on making it this far 🙌 It's a hard pill to swallow that your own family can be this evil, and despite them being alive y…

As a husband of 25 years and a dad to 3 girls I am pleading with you to leave this so called man and take time away from dating to find yourself. I understand you carry guilt about having a ex husban…

What you say about manipulation not always being a negative is true. A lot of the time, the situations I want to manipulate are things like getting a subordinate a raise, or getting compost bins insta…

I'm relieved that the monsters who did extremely vile shit to my mom, and caused her to give me CPTSD, have died. It's a huge relief to know they're not polluting this world anymore. Most likely they …

Wait’ll you try to breastfeed. Many, many women have trouble and have to rely on formula in part, or instead. I’d put money on him being evil, unsympathetic, and controlling then, too. That period is …

Certainly! In different ways than you, but yes. My parents weren't evil, but they weren't emotionally healthy enough to teach me how to be. And so yes, I definitely had to teach myself some things and…

Intelligence is to know of a thing. Wisdom is to have experienced it. Past experiences have brought you wisdom and with that wisdom, a window into the worst parts of people. Money itself isn’t evil, b…

This makes sense to me surprisingly. In life They bring imbalance by creating corruptions that should not have happened, by tipping the scale to the side of insanity. They perpetuate evil. Think of s…
