I attribute my LD to the episode ‘What was in Blue’s Dream’ from Blue’s Clues. Home sick one day from school, watched this episode, dreamed that episode that night then not only did I know I was dream…

Thank you. This resonates so deeply. The consequences listed are so painfully familiar. An early memory is my mom getting out the phone book, picking up the phone and saying she's calling the orpha…

Yeah, it's fucking hard. I don't think I'll ever get closure because she's never been the sort of person to really make an effort to give that to me. I obviously can't be inside her head and speak for…

Totally a journey but well worth it. For me it’s about getting out of my head / body —> and speaking my fear to put it on a physical plane.

In my possession, I have a lot of antique guns passed down from family members. Like the Derringer my great grandmother carried as a traveling nurse in the early 1900's. And the 38 special her daughte…

Honestly? The question should be how to better understand yourself and what you’re getting out of this relationship.

It might help if you write out all the thoughts and feelings and questions you have in between therapist sessions. And then start with just one of the things to talk about in the session. That way you…

You don't have to do social activities you don't want to do, but if you want to find a romantic partner, you'll have to start getting used to letting people get closer. Getting out of your comfort zon…

35F and wondering if anyone else has dealt with this and if so how they got over it. I’m dating again after getting out of a relationship a few months ago. Been on a few dates with some guys from app…

I think the way that I have survived is due to neglecting my needs, desires, or expectations. In the end, she is never going to be able to be fully vulnerable with me, let me in, or show me love and a…

i don’t think deep diving on this is helping. Fear of rejection and abandonment. Emotionally absent and abusive family coached the belief that love was conditional and that I have prove myself to be…

I need to know who the fuck normalized diagnosing people with a fear of intimacy or commitment just because they don't want to text or see you as often as you want to see them. I get it's softer on ou…

You survived and you are getting out there. Sadly, low expectations are probably a good thing for online dates.

So the thing avoidants are getting out of relationships (that makes them/us stick around) is closeness? But isn't that the case for everyone?

hey all, i’ve (39f) recently started dating a super sweet guy (47m). we’ve been dating for about 3 months, and have just made it *official* things have been moving at a rapid, intense pace, yet a few…

Hey - You remind me of me! I feel like I just started dating in my late 20s and early 30s because during most of my 20s I dealt with health and some mental problems, plus was mainly just to focused on…

First and foremost,let me say it takes courage to do what your about to do. I feel your anxiousness and the lump in the throat but also the butterflies that start when you see the other person. You me…

You may never feel ‘ready’. If you’ve been working on stuff for many years, you are probably more ready than you think. Maybe push yourself in little ways to test the waters and figure out what you th…

I (30M) haven’t been on Hinge in close to a year and really have no desire to go back, but the fact that single women don’t seem to go out in public where I live is really forcing my hand. I thought m…

Good of you for trying! :) In my opinion, the advice of doing things outside is not so much to necessarily to make the activity a dating venue. I feel like the way you seem to have approached it, goi…

Good on you for getting out there! I was in a super LTR and we both would only do stuff together. It was hard to make myself go out alone when we broke up but I feel so much more confident. I'm able t…

as someone who used to practically live in the gym I can't recall ever noticing what anyone else was doing except for when they were sitting on a piece of equipment for an extended period of time with…

A downside I never expected to going through the healing and therapy process. Lately I’ve been feeling miles above most friends and especially above most dating apps matches/dates/flings emotionally a…

I'm... just disappointed. I met someone back in the fall and was very quickly head-over-heels. For background, I don't date often after getting out of a very long-term relationship a few years ago, an…

Is this your knowledge or AI? the AI posts and comments are getting out of hand

I relate to how you’re feeling. Independently, I agree with the last statement. However, and only sharing my personal experience here - I would play myself into the exact same situation, be low-effort…

It’s not a man thing. Women do that too. I personally do it. For me, the relationship is over. I don’t owe my ex anything. I respect them, I cared for them and all but me sleeping with other people o…

Mine are scary but I honestly want another problem with sleep paralysis, purely because I want to experiment with getting out of them. My strategy the two times it happened was to close my eyes and th…

I definitely hear you! Life doesn’t have to be some grand thing though! And that feeling comes from underlying issues like you said. I struggle with similar feelings often. But for me focusing on be…

Honestly my take on my wife is probably different than what a lot of people expect to hear in this sub. I don’t hate her. I’m not angry at her. I still love and respect her very much. We went through…

I like to drink too, but a whole handle of rum regularly is a lot. Also, kids changes the equation drastically. Plus, he knows his partner doesn’t like it and consistently leaves her with all the chil…

God and beings know what’s going to happen in the future and perhaps they dialed you down knowing what would be happening soon, in case you’d take rash actions against others based on your discernment…

From my understanding, when you get a new sim with the same number, it stops the old sim from working. So no one can send text from his old sim. I worked in the industry over 20 years ago, so things m…

I think you should also consider if you are happy? The way you describe your relationship, you seem to be acting like your boyfriend’s mom and caretaker. While he isn’t giving you much back and inste…

Thank you for this. The part about there being no way around it, only through it, really resonates with me. That’s exactly what this feels like right now. It’s a storm of emotions and some days are de…

When I'm not dating someone, I don't do very much besides knit, listen to podcasts, read and play video games and D & D (and my D & D sessions have been done online since we all graduated and moved to…

Everyone is working through something. Why are you even using the apps in the first place, dummy? Because you can't meet someone on your own in real. Are you any more successful than me? I don't know …

Pretty good at helping with falling asleep. I still wake up every night any time between 2 & 4pm & getting out of bed after falling back asleep causes serious drowsiness for me

I get that. When it’s that fresh it’s normal to feel like you don’t want to do anything. You don’t have to force yourself into a big night out or anything. Even something small like a walk, grabbing c…

Two unhealthy things here that aren't deal breakers, but ideally need work to make a healthy relationship. (1) He did some light manipulation by "testing" you rather than just talking to you. That's…

Totally get it. I have felt better overall after getting out of a toxic relationship, but I miss the connection too. Mostly on weekends we used to snuggle up and watch movies, so getting used to doing…

I’m really glad you posted this because it’s something that people don’t talk about enough. I truly believe being in a relationship with a narcissist causes brain damage. After getting out of my nar…

Perhaps try drinking more water. No judgement but if I'm not getting out of bed for 10hrs to at least urinate first thing I need to drink more water.

Yeah your chart gives major sugar baby vibes. This person definitely prefers to rely on other people's funds, the ultimate receiver. Your house of income (2H) is Mars ruled, so you're supposed to be e…
