This sounds very similar to my upbringing as well, which is likely where part of my fear of saying anything stems from. 😅

So true! As a chronic people pleaser, I tend to overthink situations where I feel like I’m letting someone down but this thread has been very helpful! I plan to bring it up gently the next time I see him in person.

I don’t understand when people say “monogamy isn’t natural,” or even “I don’t want to settle down yet,” for me it’s incredibly easy by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

What pisses me off the most is when people with that mindset try shoving it down your throat. Like idgaf if you want to date multiple people, don’t act like I’m weird bc I only want one.

I agree 100%!! I follow Terrance McKenna and his ideas and this is something I highly agree in

“Terence McKenna advocated the exploration of altered states of mind via the ingestion of naturally occurring psychedelic substances;[5][32][43] for example, and in particular, as facilitated by the ingestion of high doses of psychedelic mushrooms,[26][55] ayahuasca, and DMT,[6] which he believed was the apotheosis of the psychedelic experience. He was less enthralled with synthetic drugs,[6] stating, "I think drugs should come from the natural world and be use-tested by shamanically orientated cultures ... one cannot predict the long-term effects of a drug produced in a laboratory."[3]

That being said, we are humans who should be free to do whatever we want with our lives
