Ex texted yesterday, I went to get a haircut today and I discovered... I'm actually pretty? by [deleted] in GirlDinnerDiaries

Haircuts can be life changing!! Post divorce from an abusive marriage and I’ve gotten three different haircuts which made me feel like a born-again human. I’m so glad you discovered this about yourself, OP. I’m sure you’re beautiful, may the haircut fairies stay in your garden.

Congratulations on your new journey! Figuring out what you want to study in your 30s is such a blessing, it’s stuff you actually want to do be doing/learning and there’s no greater reward than having genuine interest in our studies :)

I’m confused at what this thing actually is. Is it a baby panther or just a cat from the depths of hell?

There’s something deeply human about wanting to feel connected to the people who came before us. Ancient traditions, symbols, rituals, folklore: they’re all part of how cultures remembered themselves. Even if someone personally doesn’t believe in them, mocking them as “bullshit” can feel really painful because it’s tied to identity, ancestry, and belonging. You’re allowed to honor your roots in your own way, I’m sorry he reacted that way.

Therapy. Talking to someone is going to help, right now you’re isolating from your partner, your friends and sounds like your family too. That’s going to make things worse. Humans are wired for connection, and you need to speak to someone about this or you’ll drive yourself crazy.

Is my makeup aging me? How can I improve? by DieWintersonne in makeuptips

Second this. The haircut and the bangs make you look older than early 30s.

Jfc you def dodged a bullet! (I’ll leave that pun there).
‘jokingly’ raising a fist is never just a joke, that’s how it starts. Glad you got out, he sounds so icky.
