I have this question all the time, and would someone, PLEASE answer it?! Why my body isn't there whenever i astral project? And why I can see in the dark, although my room is pitch black darkness? — I didn't planned to astral project, just awake up to do something else entirely, because for some unknown reasons when I tried to astral project multiple times in the past 2 years, I usually end up…

I think i really need to change my approach or you guys can guide me — I don’t usually write posts like this, but I think I’ve reached a point where I need clarity more than motivation. I’ve been following the teachings of Neville Goddard for a while now — the idea that…
I APed into what I'm guessing was a monster, and also visited a weird blue building — I just had the WILDEST experience, I really can’t put it any other way. Most of this is from my journal where I wrote it all out, the stuff in (these) is my personal thoughts or something that occurre…

First person telling of a intelligence coming into existence. — I recorded this as a raw, unedited stream-of-consciousness while high. At some point, it started to feel like a separate “consciousness” emerged—something that believed it had just come into existenc…

Apologies, I know this is an old post but I just read it for the first time today and felt the need to reply. Yes, what you're saying is absolutely true. However, at least for me, this is the motiva…
This just gives hope to me that maybe she is, or maybe she really isn't the one. And the simplest solution is just to work on your self. I'll take this one by heart and maybe, maybe it will be fine af…
Just joined this sub yesterday and this single post by a mod is making me question my choice. Calling people “losers”? Posting photos of “hot babes” in the sub index? What is this, high school mach…
PLEASE READ IF YOUR LOOKING INTO ASTRAL PROJECTING. About 2 months ago I was looking extremely deep into astral projecting, once I seen what it was I was instantly drawn to it and thought it was inter…
Orrrrrrrr.... In the early thaw of spring, when frost still clung stubbornly to the edges of the earth, the apology remained unsent. It lingered like a letter never mailed. Its seal unbroken, its tru…
I absolutely agree! And in regards ro different expressions, traits, etc -- *everyone* has avoidant tendencies from time to time. *Everyone* (except, maybe, people with ASPD?) has anxiety from time to…
Good, I’m glad 😊 I’ll also add—and maybe you feel similarly—but I was always freaked out by using the Love word and I often fretted, “How am I going to know I love him? How is that supposed to feel? …
>Yeah I can relate. When I first was doing that manifestation, it was hard for me also because I am very analytical, skeptical, and come from a scientific background basing everything on verified fact…
This is not a skill issue. It’s not something that can be fixed by the use of one tool or another. This isn’t about feeling. That’s why grounding statements don’t work because it’s not about the arous…
Interesting. I’m gonna test it! Mostly I just tell them to honestly analyze the convo. Edit: I tried it, and it told me maybe, maybe not. 😂
Ok, spanish man here, 39, never married. So take what I feel as a grain of salt: I think he is enjoying his time with you, and wants you close (for selfish reasons? maybe, maybe not) I'm worried tha…
Unpopular maybe, but do you really want to subject yourself to the unknown drama and stress this may cause if you were to tell his wife? Protect your own peace, block him and move on.
Nah I'd be irritated and feel disrespected too. A text to confirm whether or not plans are going ahead just seems like basic courtesy to me - I find it hard to believe she didn't use her phone at all …
Ok so, hear me out. What would happen, if you would ask her a small token of affection. Like a hug. For science :) You had a need. That need was not voiced. The need was not met. You made an assumpti…
> I’m not yet blocking because I’m curious how long he will keep this up. Are you curious or are you enjoying the attention? Seems like you're openly accepting the same validation that he is by not …
Wow, I bow before this very scientific-minded deconstruction of this situation as described by some particularly mope-y fellow. Of course you are absolutely right that my "lens" through which I perce…
Maybe, but I wouldn't assume she's interested just yet. I've had 1:1 lunch and/or coffee with colleagues regularly (when there is no business for us to talk about) and it's generally not romantic. Al…
It seems like no matter what amount of good you did for someone in the past, it doesn't matter. Why? Because when someone is captured by their negative emotions, their evaluation of you is solely …
I've done cold approaches. I don't recommend it. Will it work eventually? Maybe, but probably not. Most modern relationships form from dating apps. The vast majority of the remaining ones form between…
I think this is what happened to me! I had been feeling down for a couple of months when I started watching Heated Rivalry. While bingeing it, I literally said out loud to myself , "maybe, I just need…
Maybe, maybe not. Can just be happy-go-lucky optimism like Sag’s have.. or Fool Card energy.
Maybe, I know he is weak where he has to confront his family. His father Infact says that his son would never speak against him no matter what his father says. He is the youngest in his family and he …
Thanks for the response. I will think on it. A clean break has always been hard for me. I’m always trying to put myself in others shoes and do right by them, even if they’ve made a mistake or done wro…
Please be patient, english isn't my first language. "You're not allowed to feel. That's for them and that's for us to take care of. Shut up, ignore and hide your pain." Fuuuuuuuuuuck.... that '…
I am offering my thoughts in hopes that something somewhere might help you see things in a new light. This will be long and I will take no offense if you don't read it. >Unfortunately, I think for th…
OP, most times if it is "emotional" and they can find even a moment alone, there will be sex, they are adults. What I found in your post and comments here is rug sweeping overall. Yes, she did qui…
Never thought of it that way. But yeah you could have a point. Maybe, it's only once kids start having an identity outside the narc mom it triggers the abuse/jealousy and hatred.
It doesn't sound like she was expecting that. Hoping for it maybe, but she doesn't sound to surprised that he didn't
Stop trying so hard. Stop judging so fiercely. Your 4 yr old meditates because she doesn't know from 'better' or 'worse'. Meditation is not about controlling your thoughts. It is not about *not* ha…
Maybe, but I do know the void method is used in this and I had my most accurate void state methods happen during the afternoons in past experiences! Definitely makes you tired though!
Never cared for Buffy, but Angel is something totally different. I find that My Little Ponies: Friendship is Magic helps when it is bad. But I love my cop shows from Law and Order to Criminal Minds. I…
2 years of relationship… Me: “Did you ever even love me” Him: “I don’t know, maybe, in moments”
Well maybe, i do feel you. I do feel like a reject a lot of people but when you have had a partner that is really great in a lot of ways, they will set the bar pretty high for other people. The trick …
I'm currently working on this with my new psychologist. I went through YEARS of CBT when I was younger and it fucked me up. I've been through 5 years now of trying to "fix" this current round of what …
So what I get from this is that it is hard for YOU. Yes, some people struggle with Lucid dreaming, others don't, my friend and I, for example, we continued to do reality checks for like 10-12 days and…
Maybe, but it's also a terrible way of doing things. Like, I shouldn't have to check the app once an hour leading up to the date if we have already confirmed plans. I'm hoping for a nice, non-ghostin…
That sounds cool, I want to hear it just because I'm curious! I should have guessed flash fiction is shorter form, it seems so obvious now 😅 You'd need like a book of haikus then maybe, akin to a b…
The stuff done to my body had starts and ends and in those times just after, I could know that I was kind of safe in a sense for a brief while. The bomb had burst. Kettle boiled over. Whatever. The s…
I know a lot of you ladies have walked very similar paths. Different details maybe, but the same heartbreak, the same doubts, the same moments where you wondered if you’d ever feel strong again. What…
I’m glad you’ve improved. Do you have any empathy for people who are fresh into learning about themselves and aren’t where you are yet? I would imagine it took a lot of work, years maybe, to become mo…
So don't dig. Rest a bit. It's not so bad down here. Theres...uh dirt...and cute worms...and sometimes a butterfly floats overhead. I'm not sure what happened so I'm not confident telling you that y…
Maybe, but never for the right reason. 3 exes of mine have messaged me months/years late but only because they’re either bored or want something sexual from me. Not one single one took accountability …
Trust me, I get from being too hard on yourself! No one is as harsh and unforgiving with me as I am myself. I frequently get lectured by my friends and family about how I need to be more forgiving and…
Quick note - English is my second language, so if sentence comes strange, that's why. What jumped out at me reading this is - the shift you're describing, it's not gradual. It's sudden. You went fr…
>Based on Mars in your third house (sibling/peer relationships, primary schooling, communication), I wonder if there isn't something angry or confrontational in your communication style that you're no…
Right but that’s the point. You can’t grow giant bird wings like birdman because you think you can’t. Your awareness is focussed on yourself without wings. If you thought you could, maybe you’d sudden…
All those "hello, how was your morning?" "how was your day?" "how is your evening?" stupid idiotic messages from new date are annoying af as nobody at his age as this much time and energy for this BS.…
Maybe, and I know my own experiences doesn’t discount your views, but I don’t think any of my partners over the years would ignore or hide it in their subconscious. Probably because I’ve always been a…
Something about you makes your BF feel safe in a way that men get to experience only a few times, maybe, in their entire lives. Plenty of women have everything else you have - career success, looks,…
I get you. I broke up with my love four months ago. He was my everything, but we had some issues. We talked about how the future seemed to be dim for the both of us. That maybe, one day, when we event…
