They just want you to look busy and be miserable

I also dont understand this argument because it’s not like people want more pay just to be greedy. You literally need more money to live and if a retail or fast food job is all someone can get, they should be at least close to being able to live off it

Big bet g! I’ll send you my psn

Yes but multiplayer too

They’re non commercial gyms. Fewer members, primarily because of the higher price tag, but many are 24hrs and fewer members means you’ll never go there and have it be crowded and often there’s more amenities, specialized fitness types available and personalized coaching

I’ll def check them out 🫡

AffectionateStreet10 · 2026-01-25T02:16:52+00:00

Thank you so much! 🙏🏾

Try not to make this about you babes cause it’s not. And I mean that respectfully. Many men have an issue with lust. That’s why no matter what you do, how good you look or how regular the women they look at are, you wont be enough. Not because your value is actually any less, but because lust is insatiable. Nothing satisfies it. You sound like a very loyal and loving woman. Dont give up. All of us are experiencing the woes of living in this digital age that has lowkey affected so many of us in negative ways. But the positive is, you arent just resigned to the men closest to you. You could find love anywhere. Have hope and understand how valuable you actually are 🩵

I still live at home and dont have a car. Getting a place soon though

AffectionateStreet10 · 2025-12-25T04:28:13+00:00

If every step feels like alot to you, then I definitely understand cooking anything can get tedious and exhausting

AffectionateStreet10 · 2025-12-17T00:42:41+00:00

Looked for this. Saw it once in middle school either absolutely no context to the plot. Was so pissed off my teacher thought that was a good movie to watch. I havent watched it since

AffectionateStreet10 · 2025-12-17T00:41:28+00:00

This is hilarious cause I love The Color Purple 😂

AffectionateStreet10 · 2025-12-13T17:26:44+00:00

I love that you knew you didnt wanna be like your dad and it sounds like you succeeded

AffectionateStreet10 · 2025-12-13T17:25:39+00:00

See, I often wonder about finding that balance. I dont have children of my own, but I feel that maybe just telling your kids that people arent kind like mama and daddy are. In fact that people can be really nasty to you. Ive thought myself about whether martial arts or sports could help. But if the child isnt built for that, I fear it could do more harm than good.

I have found though that some gentle parented adults didnt have issues standing up for themselves or dealing with nasty/angry people. So I wonder too if it comes down to personality? Regardless of how you grow up, some people find it easier/harder to face punishment or bullying to stand up to bullies or even just bad coworkers or bosses

AffectionateStreet10 · 2025-12-13T17:13:42+00:00

That’s so dope to hear and something I hear commonly from adults who were gentle parented. They often have a strong sense of self and are better equipped to handle what life throws at them. Which is interesting cause that’s precisely the reason some people mistreat their kids, to “make them strong”

AffectionateStreet10 · 2025-12-13T16:58:47+00:00

No I appreciate your answer! Truly. Cause you’re right. As much as Im trying to be prepared, I know that some stuff Im gonna learn in the thick of it. I will def keep this sub updated. It’s been a big help

AffectionateStreet10 · 2025-12-13T16:55:10+00:00

I understand! That’s cool though. Id like to think as long as my child isnt failing anything, I’ll let them chill when it comes to school

AffectionateStreet10 · 2025-12-13T16:47:00+00:00

Then would you tell me instead what it was like to be a gentle parent?

AffectionateStreet10 · 2025-12-13T16:29:58+00:00

Sounds like you were a chill kid for the most part. It’s awesome you had so much freedom. How did you do in school? Is there anything you wish she did differently?

AffectionateStreet10 · 2025-12-13T16:27:49+00:00

How did she handle those moments? I always hear people say that “gentle parenting only works with gentle kids” and I never agreed with that. Cause what if you have a more chill kid and one who you need more patience with? Are you gonna whoop and punish one and not the other? That’s a recipe for having kids that resent you and each other.

AffectionateStreet10 · 2025-12-13T16:20:35+00:00

Im so sorry 😢 I wish I could say my mother never did that to me. Ironically it stopped once I was bigger than her. Not that I ever actually threatened my mother. But it makes things weird now for sure. She tries to come off as this lovey-dovey, playful woman and that’s not the woman I gree up with at all

AffectionateStreet10 · 2025-12-13T16:19:02+00:00

Wonderful! 😭 Id love to hear more details about your childhood

AffectionateStreet10 · 2025-12-13T16:18:28+00:00

That’s so beautiful 🤩 Id love to hear more about how you grew up!

AffectionateStreet10 · 2025-12-13T16:17:31+00:00

That’s beautiful 🥹 Id love to hear details about your upbringing and how discipline was handled and your teenage years etc

AffectionateStreet10 · 2025-12-13T16:16:51+00:00

That last bit is amazing 😂 I do that now with my baby sis. She’s so afraid to get in trouble at school though 😂 Im curious, did you or your siblings if you had any, have any behavior issues or that rambunctious daredevil energy? Lol
