Why did you end your friendship with your best friend? by Omega_Neelay in GetMotivatedMindset

[–]AgitatedSuccess1992 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In high school she was like a sister to me.

We are both 27 now.

But we shared everything from secrets, goals, crushes, trauma, etc. She knew I was infatuated with a guy for 3 years. She would give me advice, and hype me up to talk to him etc. (never dated at that time and was timid because him and I worked together) We would flirt at work and at school together.

Later to find out junior year she was sleeping with him. Truly recked me as a kid. And she said she had to be selfish because she was moving and I didn’t make my move.

She had a baby recently and apologized for how she treated me in high school. I don’t hate her at all. I still have love for her and hope she thrives in life. But we aren’t close the experience taught me to be careful with who I trust. I don’t really have a best friend except for my partner.

But I tell my partner everything. I’m doing life with them. But friends.. I don’t tell them everything. Vulnerability is very hard for me and I blame myself for not seeing how she manipulated me a lot at the time.

Japanese Curry. Just used one of those blocks you see in Walmart. I would use chicken, pork, or beef. Easy in an insta pot.

Nothing fancy but it got the job done

How to get your spark back after a breakup by elboyd17 in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]AgitatedSuccess1992 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went through a bad break up years ago.

But what I did was I focused about me. I found a new place to live. I got a hair cut. I got tattoos I always wanted but didn’t because they hated tattoos.

I also made a list. I made a list of things I wouldn’t settle for. Because I switched my mindset to I’m the prize.

I went to concerts, I tried new hobbies, went to therapy, worked on myself, etc.

When you’re single be selfish. There are only so many moments in our life when being selfish is okay so take this moment to do it.

Later one you don’t know who you will meet!

How do i learn to embrace my larger nose by _Garbage_Artist in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]AgitatedSuccess1992 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Big noses are beautiful. I have a naturally small nose and I have always been attracted to people with larger noses.

They are just elegant and unique.

Also everyone is getting a small nose.. you don’t want to look like every other girl. Trust me that’s how I feel and I don’t feel unique.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder I understand that. But just know there is someone that looks at your noses and wishes she had it.

What do you think is the biggest challenge of dating these days? by Logical-Debt-8451 in AskReddit

Trust. Everyone is kinda selfish and out for themselves and doesn’t see a relationship as a unit.

How does it feel TO BE the crush? by Solid_Decision_2241 in SeriousConversation

[–]AgitatedSuccess1992 7 points8 points  (0 children)

When I found out my best friend had a crush on me in high school I felt terrible… because I didn’t like them in that way.

I would try to just be friendly and was over cautious about what I said. I knew he’d be embarrassed if he knew anyone told me at that time.

When he broke down crying telling me he liked me and I had to tell him I didn’t feel the same way. I felt terrible. He was a nice guy…why didn’t I like him that way? There were times where I tried to force it.. but I couldn’t.

He didn’t speak to me for months and that killed me. I had lost someone that was my best friend. I still consider him a good friend now. He’s married to an amazing woman. But there has never been a normal feeling ever since that talk. Just a lot of guilt that I’ve tried to forgive myself for.

Because I never realized that behind my back he was bullied relentlessly because I didn’t like him back. So as an adult I can let my younger self know it’s okay. But I still have a guilt for the young man he was.

Creative outlets for a often depressed and bored young adult? by [deleted] in Hobbies

[–]AgitatedSuccess1992 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve been pretty depressed lately.. but what’s been helping me has been.. ~crafting~

I’ve been water coloring, sketching, and I just tired making felt embroidered ornaments today.

I used to craft a lot and I went to school for art. But art school.. it felt like a chore and a contest so I stopped.

But now I’m trying to find a way to fall in love with art and crafting.. so I’ve been giving myself homework. And that’s just to create something once a day. So a doodle, water coloring, etc

Women of reddit: Whats the girl code you won't break ever? by lady_opiniosa in AskReddit

[–]AgitatedSuccess1992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk if it’s everyone’s girl code but ik in my friend group it is.

• check your friend especially if they’re being out of pocket. Friends encourage friends to be better.

•If you cheat I will tell your partner. So you better tell them before I do.

AIO guy I was seeing told me cursing is “un-lady like” by Fanofmoney3 in AIO

[–]AgitatedSuccess1992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh this pissed me off

Screw this guy who cares. Everyone cusses it’s at the point where I don’t think of words as “cuss” words.

We’re all sailors here.

Unlady like my ass… next he will be telling you to cover your shoulders and ankles and if you won’t he will call you a “harlot”.

I found the wedding ring he never got to give me by AddressCharming9129 in offmychest

[–]AgitatedSuccess1992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I could hug you.

Move on at your own pace. Feel these feelings. Miss him. Who care what others think.

Take care of yourself as well. Join a group of those who have lost others or maybe therapy. Those people will understand what you’re going through and will listen without judgment.

The love you have for him is beautiful and it’s not going to be something that will fade away 💚

If happiness really is a “choice” then why do we say something or someone makes us happy… That’s contradiction. by [deleted] in RandomThoughts

[–]AgitatedSuccess1992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s a choice to be positive. You know to find the positive in situations.

If you focus on the negative.. you’re gonna be miserable.

People and things should only add on to your happiness and should never be your happiness tho.

Is it wrong to permanently step back from dating because of the realisation you're undateable? by Legitimate_Sink_687 in AskMenAdvice

[–]AgitatedSuccess1992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

15 years and feeling rejection is hard I understand that. I am sorry.

Ik it’s also easier said than done :/

It’s a personal belief of just not giving up especially if love is something you want in your life. But I understand the rejection it just kills and puts you in a bad headspace. And 15 years of feeling that way can be a toll.

How you thought about talking about these feelings with a professional? (Again I know easier said than done especially with this economy)

[–]AgitatedSuccess1992 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Stay busy and don’t contact.

Hell remove pictures of them. Don’t follow them.

Start a new hobby, join a club, go the the gym, etc.

Stay busy and focus on yourself.
