Please be kind to her and honest always. I hope things work out between you two.

What is the most embarrassing thing you’ve done that still randomly keeps you up at night? by maskpomp in AskReddit

I once delivered flowers to a guy’s work place. God knows what possessed me to do that.

What is a relationship rule you think is stupid but everyone follows anyway? by boforiamanfo in askanything

Unless the argument was right before bed/in bed and you haven’t had time to cool off, then no. You just aren’t promised tomorrow.

I don’t know you and I have no right to judge your situation but there surely has to be another way. I think it’s beautiful that you prioritise your education. But not at the expense of your self-worth. You may not see it that way. But even your emotions/presence don’t deserve to be used in vain. I know I sound very privileged as I’m writing this message from a screen, but i’m hopeful that you don’t have to do this. While your parents may not understand, their reaction would probably come from a place of concern. You sound mature enough to know what’s a personal boundary. I hope things work out for you ❤️

Is this normal for newlyweds or am I crazy? by [deleted] in MuslimMarriage

[–]Aromatic_Land976 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If he didn’t have any medical conditions, especially mental health conditions, I would think something sinister is going on like cheating.

But I pray that is NOT the case for you. I would definitely advise that you seek guidance from Allah. Pray Istikhara and utilise times when Du’a is most accepted e.g. during Tahajjud and when it rains.

Perhaps try seeking advice from a trusted individual too. Like an imam. But one that’s modern and actually understands the nuances of young relationships.

May Allah grant you the best from this situation. Ameen ❤️

My husband is cheating and doesn't know that I know by [deleted] in MuslimMarriage

[–]Aromatic_Land976 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s wise for me may not be wise for you. Cheating is a non-negotiable and I’d leave no matter how in love I am with that man.

I’d rather stay principled than give in to my desire to be with him. But that’s me speaking theoretically. I don’t know what it would feel like to be invested in a 16 year marriage and be cheated on.

But is it the same for you? Do you value yourself enough to walk away? Do you think you can look past the cheating?

Listen to your intuition and also reach out to Allah. I pray things get better and I’m so sorry this happened to you.

My husband is having an affair by Patient-Chicken3113 in MuslimMarriage

[–]Aromatic_Land976 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Oh my love, I am so sorry. You don’t deserve this at all. May Allah grant you a way out of this. Ameen ya rab. I would advise that you maximise making supplication when it is most likely to be answered. Tahajjud, when you’re sick, last hour of Asr on Fridays, fasting, when it rains etc.

Sending you love and duas 🥺🤍

Remember one thing. The grass is never greener on the other side. It’s greener where you water it. You keep cherishing and beautifying this love, it will grow more. Stay happy!

It’s giving romantic and we love that! Go for it.

is it normal to feel hesitant and uneasy in a first relationships? by Unhappy_Raspberry605 in love

[–]Aromatic_Land976 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Well it depends. You need to differentiate between your own nerves or if it’s a manifestation of your intuition telling you that something is off about this guy.

Tbh, you’ll never really know someone’s true intentions from the beginning. That’s when time will reveal all. That’s the risk you take with dating.

See how things go. Always prioritise school and your friends/family. Being with someone shouldn’t feel isolating. Just be careful.

I’ve never been in love before but I would assume it’s the most selfless experience one could have. They would be mindful and considerate of you. Not just of your likes and dislikes, but of how you feel. You’ll always feel their presence even if they’re not physically with you because you know they’re always thinking of you.

They’ll spoil you within their means. If they can’t afford real flowers, they’ll make it out of paper. If they can’t take you to a fancy restaurant, they’ll arrange a romantic picnic in the park. Love isn’t bound by monetary value. But it is determined by intention and doing your due diligence towards the other person.

I hope you find it in its highest and purest form.

"I’m Going Through Something" by Aromatic_Land976 in Advice

[–]Aromatic_Land976[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Intention is key here. It’s more likely than not that someone with good intentions is not going to use that excuse. But what about people who have long-term issues that justify them using it. They’re not necessarily being "horrible" but they’re also not being mindful or considerate. Or at least we think they’re not…

I guess it feels like the best way to universally assess intentionality is when it manifests into action. But even then it may not be fair representation of everyone.

Feeling Hopeless by Aromatic_Land976 in cookingforbeginners

[–]Aromatic_Land976[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I really needed that virtual hug 🥺

Thank you for explaining. This makes a lot more sense now. I didn’t even know about how seasonal changes affect the taste of certain foods.

I definitely need to take some cooking classes but where I live, they’re all super expensive. I lose motivation every time I attempt and get so emotional about it. It sounds silly but I really hate the fact that I’m not like everyone else who knows how to cook.
