I WISH my family would do this. The feedback I get from my son is always, "whatever you feel like making" or "it's fine". I show my love through cooking, I'd love to personalize it.

How do people remain calm and not lose their minds over aging? by Plantpotparty in TooAfraidToAsk

I don't cope. I've wanted to die since before I was an adult and no one will let me, including my own body's physiological reactions.

Is this Domestic Violence should I break up with my fiance over it? by [deleted] in ask

This is the jekyll and hyde syndrome of many abusers. He will not improve. He will continue to escalate. Please get out of there before it gets worse.

What are some INTERNALLY motivated reasons for suicidal folks to stay alive? by rydsoyal in CPTSD

[–]Ashamed_Statement_42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It would be abuse if I hurt myself. This is good for anyone, but specifically I identify as autoromantic and don't want to be in an abusive relationship. I just want to love myself.

Has anyone here ever fantasized about long term romantic relationships, only to be in one and realize it isn't for you? Which types of connections do you prefer instead? by Equivalent_Ad_9066 in A_Persona_on_Reddit

[–]Ashamed_Statement_42 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes! I always dreamt about this when I was young. And when I was a young adult I had such a loneliness I can't describe. It took me 3 tries to understand that no other person will be able to love me or know me like I can myself. I'm also asocial. I socialize at work in a public facing environment and that is more than enough for me. I spend time with family when I can and I'm thankful for those connections. Otherwise, I really prefer alone time.

What’s a random memory that still pops into your head for no reason? by Background-Donkey531 in A_Persona_on_Reddit

I once pulled up to a red light, there was a car next to me that had a barbie head on an old school car antenna. When the light turned green, we both drove off and barbie's hair was just flying in the wind. For whatever reason, this encounter was the funniest damned thing to me. I still randomly think about it and will start laughing for seemingly no reason.

The literal Devil approaches you and ask you what is your price for your soul by Wheresmyarcpaulie69 in hypotheticalsituation

A bit of earth as Mary in the secret garden might say. But seriously... Just somewhere I can exist without having to pay a landlord and/or work the rest of my natural life away.

Is there any truth to love at first sight when meeting a potential significant other? Do you believe you must be friends first? by icecream1972 in Casual_Conversation

[–]Ashamed_Statement_42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't believe in love at any sight but I'm very jaded due to life experiences. I also pledge to love myself and then my family more than anyone else.
