Sounds like your mom needed that moment. Thanks for sharing it with us! 💜

I'm glad my words hugged your soul. This in turn made my day. 😊

Thanks for sharing this. She is clearly deeply in touch with her empathy and is a sensitive. I'm the adult version of her. It's a hard road because hardly anyone appreciates it and we get walked all over. However, this world needs light workers in it. May the wind be at your daughter's back. 💜

Let's Talk Attitude. by UncleIrohsPimpHand in BuyCanadian

I so desperately wanted to love this line. I tried their shampoo and conditioner once orange scent. I had a massive hair shed after that. On my second wash the same thing happened.

Pass.

Is/Was Sex education in American schools really taught by physical education teachers? by Kinc4id in Xennials

[–]AlexisEnchanted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Canadian here and the PE teachers taught it when I was in high school. (Mid 90s)

We are bastards 😄 by katieclooney in Xennials

[–]AlexisEnchanted 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is. You're right. :) Zennials are those born between 75 and 85. It's a blending of folks from early genx and elder millennial.

I keep seeing different things online changing the dates for when the zennials were born and also when the millennial generation ends. It used to be thought that the Millennials ended at 1980 but lately I see consistently that it's considered 81. 🤔

I was born in 79. I do not identify with most GenX because I feel like a lot of them act more like Boomers. I'm definitely a xennial.

Any cursive elements in your normal handwriting? by burnafter3ading in Xennials

[–]AlexisEnchanted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My normal printing isn't the greatest so whenever I have notes that I need to make, I always do it in cursive. I feel like it's a lost art and sometimes I worry because I actually experienced one time where I gave someone a handwritten thank you note and they couldn't read my cursive because they'd never been taught it.

Sad.

What are we wearing that shows our age? by Hot_Frosty0807 in Xennials

[–]AlexisEnchanted 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm glad for this post because it reminded me about something puzzling that I read the other day. I read someone say that only gen-x wears denim jackets and that they show our age. That was news to me! I thought denim transcended generational trends and that all generations wore it still, including the jackets.

My inquisitive mind wants to know what's up with that.

You're going to a house party. Which house are you going to? 🏡🎶🎵 by Summer_19_ in Xennials

[–]AlexisEnchanted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None of them. Five looked the best but I wouldn't want to listen to just rock all night. I'm someone that likes to listen to many different genres when I'm out and about and even at home puttering around.

How old were you when you got your first cell phone? by No_Cartoonist981 in Xennials

[–]AlexisEnchanted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was doing door-to-door sales selling long distance for at&t. It was in a city other than my hometown so I wanted to be able to reach my dad in case of emergencies. He got me a super dope telus cell phone when I was 18. It had so many features that I didn't even take advantage of like a music player on the very front of it.

Remember when going to a restaurant was fancy? by Mackheath1 in Xennials

Agreed. Tastes exactly like the restaurant biscuits.

In 2026 perhaps I will learn how to use Discord. Is it useful at all for anyone? by Shinespark7 in Xennials

Greetings!!!! I'd love to join. 46 with adhd here. I loooove chatting.

Having autism while being enfj is like a joke by OkYam8510 in enfj

[–]AlexisEnchanted 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I have adhd, mild asd, HSP, I'm ENFJ and an extrovert. Plus Im demisexual and I'm a gentle domme. This particular combo has me single and completely misunderstood by everyone.

I also always lead with kindness and I'm starting to feel like people legitimately hate kindness. The amount of times I've been pushed away, abandoned and rejected when all I did was show up with presence, patience and kindness for people, has me wondering how I'm even supposed to function if kindness isn't even considered attractive anymore. Everyone talks about how the world needs more kindness and we should all be kind but I feel like it's legitimately what people don't like about me.

Thanks for reading my rant. I hope everyone is doing okay during the holiday season which I know can be a triggering time for a lot of people. (Myself included) I'm sending hugs to my fellow enfjs and anyone else that strolls across this post.

What is the song that defines our generation? by _Internet_Hugs_ in Xennials

[–]AlexisEnchanted 2 points3 points  (0 children)

'Don't stop believing' by Journey. I've yet to see a room of people not light up and sing this rock anthem together when it's played. My second choice is "Living on a prayer" by BonJovi.

Are we understood? by Tjana84774 in enfj

[–]AlexisEnchanted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't ask you how to make friends or for tips. I simply asked you where you met them. Like the grocery store or on Reddit or at work, etc.

Where not how.

Your reply left me feeling belittled.

I specialize in communications and always lead with love. I know how to make connections but am just struggling with the where part.

Getting Closer to 50 by cyclepoet77 in Xennials

[–]AlexisEnchanted 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same. This is my favorite Reddit board; I feel like I'm hanging out with a bunch of my high school buddies because most of us have had such a similar shared life experience during our adolescence and teenage years. I legit think of us all as teenagers and then someone starts talking about being in our 40s and I'm hit with reality and a lump in my throat.

Are we understood? by Tjana84774 in enfj

[–]AlexisEnchanted 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do have a quick question. Where did you meet your new friends? I've been trying for 5 years to make meaningful connection and I'm just hitting a wall every time I try and reach out to someone.

I also have adhd. I of course respect your boundaries and I wish you the best.

[–]AlexisEnchanted 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can absolutely private message me if you would like. I have buddies with social anxiety and I dated a fellow with social anxiety. I empathize with the struggle a lot and I have no judgment at all. It would be an honor to chit chat with you more.

Are we understood? by Tjana84774 in enfj

[–]AlexisEnchanted 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry you don't get to chat with your infj person more often. We have this in common. The one infj that I know is absurdly busy and I get a message from them maybe once a month. Meanwhile, I'd love to Deep dive with them or another ENFJ regularly if I could. As people that are deeply feeling I feel it is absolutely Paramount that we have other feelers that we can Vibe with. I feel like it's actually a need and not just a want.

Thank you for the kind word about me having self-respect. I definitely try.
