Tysm for posting this compendium and summary. I can feel your sense of kindness and willingness to share with others when so many might gatekeep or be hostile. ❤️
Then why does MC recommend NC during SP missions? Because, many times, that is the appropriate conventional action, at that moment. Either because they are increasingly fearful of you, or unfairly ho…
I question myself, for sure, which only leads me to ignore the initial red flags (love bombing, rushing to intimacy and commitment, neediness, etc.) I tell myself that I am being paranoid, that I am…
Thank you. This research at least is not wedded to what is seems to me to be a very over simplified model. I've just read the abstract and will chew through the rest of it. Then look at what else …
I've been in these scenarios a good few times in a good few ways. And I have some hostile opinions on it as well as some good ones. So scenarios. Indian CTO or VP is hired, and almost immediately, …
No, I’m not suggesting that. Not what I said. Your tone seems defensive and, at times, hostile. This discussion is not productive for me. I wish you well.
Maybe because you came right out the gate with immediately questioning what kind of emotional support capacity I could possibly have *because* I’m FA/DA. I told you that was insulting. It’s telling th…
Working something out thru conversation IS dealing with conflict. That's exactly the healthy way to do it. Not all conflicts are hostile. (but all hostility is a conflict. Just a little deductive reas…
It's a normal way to feel considering the mixed signals. Online dating kind of has a different set of social conduct rules than normal life, which people have to get used to when they rely on the apps…
I'm surprised to hear that you know only one other gay trans man. Is the trans population in London smaller than in other major cities? Is the mainstream queer culture there less open to trans people …
Went to a 30-50's valentines singles event over the weekend. It was pretty miserable if I'm being blunt. Talked to some other men there, but it wasn't really something I'm glad I bit the bullet on do…
Divorces with a lot of shared assets can take YEARS to resolve if the parties are hostile. I think it depends a lot on the situation. I have been with my current partner for several years and she to…
I haven't followed this issue at all but just wanted to add nytimes is a China-skeptic if not hostile (at least the editorial board), wapo was more pro business.
I’m not looking forward to the end of experience. It seems like whatever hostile thing is directed at me wants me to become pure bliss so it can extract it from me. I just want an end to suffering. Th…
No one is forcing you to participate in any discussion or engage with the post, I'm clearly not the most informed and I said as much in the thread, I've been led to believe my response to medical weed…
There's no way I'd deal with his nonsense. I have absolutely 0 pity and would tell him I'm not even interested in friendship at this point. I'd tell my friends I'm not going to hang around someone who…
Yes. having lived in Africa for a good bit, everyone doubts you are american. theres some pros and there are some cons. if you are east asian, a lot of them assume you are chinese, and some have a ten…
Agreed, I need to work on being less hostile. I won't delete because it's evidence of my own personal growth, which might be good for myself to look back on and others to read.
Times have changed. It's cool to embrace your culture and ethnicity now, since the 2010s, it seems. As a 2nd gen, genxer who grew up in a KKK town, even without being authentically Asian I was constan…
That’s a reply worth keeping for sure. We can all learn to be less hostile. Thank you for being candid and open.
surely you just bring it up to him but don't address it in a way you're attacking his chat gpt, if he has labeled it as an important key to his life then any criticism towards may come off as hostile
You're right. Believing that "life is suffering" is probably the most horrible way of living (there may be reasons for thinking that of course), because most of our experiences are based on what we b…
My experience has been very similar to yours. There was a period in my development when I was going into the training with passion. I had a stack of exercises i would do early in the morning and late …
Dude I'm a Filipino living in the Philippines but we still refer to Chinese New Year despite the majority of my country being hostile to China. Stop accepting any reason to normalize de-Sinicization f…
You called his bluff and he's freaking out. He expected you to give in, and when you didn't he's now getting repeatedly hit with the reality that he is losing all his leverage over you. Since it appea…
To be fair, the first thing I'd say is there's nothing wrong with your friendship standards. We live times of such empty value to the word "friend" or "friendship" - something even shown by how social…
I'm a 1.5th Gen East Asian American and a Gen Z, Idk if your definition of boy would fit for teenager? Or just kid under age 12? I came to US around 13 so already a teenager, I went to a middle class…
Last week, I took a chance on matching with a man who looked much older (15+ years) than his profile suggested. Turns out the hair is a fun genetic trait! I’m so happy I did, he has so many qualities …
\*I'm also weary of using words like toxic, they are overused and thrown around flippantly. I suppose I meant people we are forced to spend time around but cause stress and anguish in our lives. At …
This resonates with me. The first councillor simply asked her how she thought one of the things made me feel, aaand we didn’t go back. The second one at session 6 asked her what she actually wanted (c…
I did, back when I was a kid and I didn't have a strong sense of what I'm about. so I internalized what other people said about me instead. I'm in my 30s. Assume everyone who says hostile things abou…
Honestly, if she’s already insisting on divorce so she can be with the affair partner, I would stop fighting it. Go talk to a good attorney immediately and get everything drawn up so you can protect y…
Fucking hell that's grim. Honestly don't think that's the case here she's not exactly sneaking out or hiding her phone, just proper hostile to me. But you've got me thinking now. Might keep my ears op…
Yes I've experienced this however the strong reaction that you had and I had is related to psi and energetic mechanics in play that humans deal with in many NHI interactions. I don't automatically ass…
I've worked with experieners who've had reptilian contact, bad, neutral and good and there is a big contrast between those experiences and the type of stuff the Internet talks about where beings are r…
Completely same here. I did so much emotional and behavioral work. I knew that I wasn’t the main issue but if I wanted any chance of us being healthy I had to do a lot better on my end modulating my e…
Speaking from my own personal experience, but I believe there are multiple factors at play: 1. Awareness has a double edged sword. We are more aware of how common Shitty Life Syndrome is, so we feel …
I am just saying if everyone says manifesting is limitless and we can manifest anything we desire then why limit ourselves to what we see as "more realistic" instead of reaching for the stars? Its fin…
I’m going through a separation right now. My only concern is my future relationship with my 9 years old daughter. My ex declared to end the marriage in a hostile manner. We’ll see. Thank you for shari…
They want to divide and conquer unfortunately. Most governments in the world right now are not helping their citizens. So, we take it out on each other. Neighbours fighting each other and more host…
Worried she'll help them again? OP, it's not an uncertainty, it's an absolute. Your wife's sister is going to drain her dry, probably for the rest of their lives. Unless you wife is willing to set bo…
Same. Mine too. Aggressive, angry, hostile and emotionally violent. Can you explain about the inner monologue part? Gosh the more you share, the more I'm discovering whatever damages I endured, which…
I hope this won't come across too harsh but the reason it's a pattern now is because you didn't say anything, multiple times in a row, and instead did stuff yourself that you resented doing. The resul…
My family was heavily impacted by both generational trauma and our various marginalized identities, but to me, this post is truly not it. I’m not comfortable with any argument that essentially softens…
Yes, emotional stability! I dated this man for 7 months and it was filled with green flags. We had our first major conflict and he totally shut down and got hostile. Wasn't even capable of a conver…
I agree. Coffeeshops in my city are wfh outposts w hostile furniture and I don’t enjoy them with anybody ever. And when I’ve done them anyway, it’s always this vibe of just wanting to make sure I’m no…
Well there's also another element: she's *just that good*. I don't think anyone would care if Eileen Gu was an also-ran; it's the combination of competing for a country that many Americans see as a r…
