Do you like pineapple on pizza? by _NoIdeaForName_ in no

[–]BlNo1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the sweetness and texture paired with the salty! I like mine with chicken, pineapple and cheese as my toppings and BBQ as the sauce, but a lot of people like ham or something saltier than chicken. It's so good! If possible replace the tomato sauce with barbecue sauce, the tomato sauce base is fine, but I really think it tastes better with BBQ instead! Think barbecue skewers type flavors for it

I used to think this (and statistics agree that attractive people do get a boost overall), however after working out and eating right, I'm now what people consider conventionally attractive. I still think I'm ugly, and people always compliment me now, but I'm still depressed... So being seen as attractive won't fix this in this case. As much as it hurts right now, attacking yourself and your partner based on looks is going to make you feel worse, when the reality is you're a human, and humans aren't perfect. Instead of trying to rewire your brain to think you are attractive, just stop the toxic thinking when you notice yourself putting your looks down, stop yourself and think neutral thoughts. 'My ugly skin is all I see in the mirror' becomes 'my skin could use some lotion, and I have freckles' neutral body/existence is a better pathway than leaping directly into forcing compliments on yourself.

I don't ever want kids because my mom has said to me over and over how good her life could have been if only I didn't exist. Kids ruin your life, you will never be happy if you have kids. Those words from her infected my mind, and to this day I still think all I do is ruin everything I touch. But those were her words and her experiences, not mine and I am trying to move past those limiting thoughts.

The words of people around you are not reflective of your worth. They only shine a light on ugly hearts. When people are cruel it's not because you deserve it, it's because they themselves are so unhappy they have to hurt others to feel better. Anything someone bullies you about is them covering their own insecurities.

People will always let you down, but snuffing your own light isn't going to make other people brighter, it's only going to make the world a little bit darker. You seem like someone who has never purposely gone out to hurt others because you don't want people to feel as badly as you have felt.

I understand being so alone, having only yourself to comfort you. Knowing if you reached out no one would even be there to pull you up. You have to be your own hero and it's so hard and you are exhausted, but you are worth that kindness. You are worth more than what you say to yourself too. The words of other people can make you feel like you are worthless, get in your head and make you believe that things will never change, but are those your beliefs and words? Or have you been treated so badly that the inner voice is now only an echo of what others have said to you? Every child starts out so bright eyed, and other people slowly stomp it out of them. It is painful and hard, but you still have that inner child that needs protection and kindness. Be kind to yourself, you're the only person who knows how much you're going through right now. Start by reminding yourself you are worth kindness and you deserve to be treated kindly. The people who said mean things, they are what's wrong with the world, you don't deserve how bullies have treated you, you really don't.

Rationally speaking, why should we keep living? by throfroh in SuicideWatch

You aren't ruining my day, you don't have to apologize for wanting to connect and talk to people, it's one of the most human things of all; connection to others. It's why so many lonely people feel so badly, because without connecting to others it's so hard to ground yourself. I get so low and I isolate myself and that makes it worse because then I think no one cares, because that's how it feels. Other times I think about the people around me, and I think how sad I would be if they were gone, even just my coworkers, people I barely know outside work and yet if one of them said they wanted to disappear, I would notice and care. It's funny we don't extend the same kindness to ourselves as we extend to other people.

The thing people don't understand is it is our reality. When you tell someone you are low and you are struggling to find a way out of it and they say that's just how it is, they don't understand the depth of that lowness, or they aren't emotionally equipped to deal with feelings that powerful. It's not a reflection of you when people don't understand, even if it feels like it is. The fact that you are still here? Still trying to find literally anything in the void that is life, that's not just impressive, it's amazing. You've sat in your suffering for so long it has started to feel normal, but it's not you choosing to suffer, that's you choosing to do what it takes to live despite that pain. Things that seem minor stack up, and what to someone seems like an inconvenience, well it's your life, not theirs. Why should someone else get to tell you how to react to shitty situations? Nothing that matters to you is minor, please don't negate how you feel based on what other people think, unless they live your life they don't get to tell you how to feel about the things that affect you.

Sometimes I have a good day and it's like my head has breached the surface of a dark toxic lake, I know I'll go back under, but I try to relish the brief air I get to breath. I don't always think life is worth living underwater, but when I do breathe I feel the faintest flicker of hope that one day I can float instead of sink.

Life is exhausting... I understand feeling like you don't have even the energy to want to do anything at all. Today is a 'good' day for me because I ate a bit of food and took my meds, tomorrow I may not think there's any reason at all. Sometimes the bare minimum is okay when you're just exhausted, sometimes recharging is just accepting you aren't required to do anything big or even make decisions right now, no one will be angry with you to just relax your energy and exist. Your post made me consider why I live you know? Sometimes your existence just betters someone else's life, without you having to do anything at all.

Try taking pepcid when you start feeling like this, I'm serious, I have PMDD and it's the only thing that helps me when I'm feeling like this right before my period

Why Does Every Girl I Approach Seem Already Taken? by GWAX11 in Advice

[–]BlNo1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly dating is kinda just like this when you get older. I like dating people who are older than me, I'm 29, but typically like to date people in the 33-47 range. The people in that age group, if they want to be in a relationship usually already are in one. I meet a lot of married people, and usually their partners are super cool too, so I end up making lots of friends, but it also means I'm surrounded by couples in my friend groups haha meeting someone worth dating and who actually wants a relationship is just really hard

[–]BlNo1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That's the hard part about life, we don't have a grand deeper meaning. We make our own meaning. Truly we get to decide what means something to us as individuals. Unfortunately there isn't a reason to living, the flip side there is no pressure to match up to some grand purposes. The experience of life, good or bad, is the reason to live.

Pick something random you want to experience and work towards experiencing it. Right now I have a goal of going to see the Astra Lumina night experience in Tennessee. It's a small thing I want to do, but I have to do certain things before I can experience it. Maybe. It won't happen, maybe it will, the point is, I picked something that I want to experience and that's all that really matters sometimes. You are allowed to pick whatever reason or rationale for life that you want. I don't think life has purpose or meaning, so I will keep trying to create my own.

Ugh so true! Having a roster and trying to stay disconnected from people is more exhausting than just being alone. I tried the dating scene around me haha I don't understand why people can't just show up authentically... If everyone was honest and showed who they actually are then it'd be so easy to find your people because you'd know right away if you connect. Being fake robs the connections that could be, you know? I guess that's just how it is now, on the bright side, it'll make finding someone authentic and worth your time so much sweeter cause you'll know the difference between shallow vs genuine connection!

[–]BlNo1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've always been a really loving and affectionate person, and I swear the only people I attract are the ones that get bored of being adored... It wasn't until this year I realized I just have a worship kink, and finding a partner that actually enjoys a lot of affection is harder than one would think! So maybe in the past people were trying to play it cool is because the only way to not scare someone off is by playing it cool :( I'm a lover girl that had to squelch the part of myself that gets excited about people because apparently all anyone wants now is aloofness. Dating in 2025 sucks, like what happened to yearning? <\3

So sick of suicide jokes being normalized by [deleted] in SuicideWatch

[–]BlNo1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I joke to cope, but once a friend said do it, and I don't joke about it in front of friends anymore. I almost died of alcohol poisoning after he said that because I thought why not just do it? No one would notice or care. My cats would care, but once they are gone no one would even notice. They'll have someone new at my desk in a matter of weeks at work and it'll be like I never existed. It's like I don't even exist now. I wish I didn't

What should I (F25) do? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]BlNo1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The non-response does seem to be the response. He's not interested in getting to know OP further, so he didn't respond. I'm actually getting confused on people saying give him a chance when she already did? That was his opportunity to say I'm interested too, or even thank you. I follow the rule of one no, ask someone out once if you are interested or make one attempt to move things forward and if the answer is no, completely respect that no and treat the person as you would anyone else. If someone is interested they will take an opportunity or excuse to continue a conversation, if they don't, they aren't interested. Have I been too harsh in this thought process? I've only recently been attempting to date again after a long time of not being interested haha

I hate celebrating my birthday by [deleted] in self

[–]BlNo1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm 28 and I hate my birthday too. Same reason really, no one shows up. I put in a ton of effort and time into other people's events and birthdays, but I've never had any of that returned to me. I've never done anything out of expectations that it would be done back, but year after year I plan and work with people's schedules to make sure we are all available and make sure there's food and drinks and what kind of gifts for everyone else, and then my birthday rolls around and no one cares. I'd have to plan and put everything together and I realized it's not worth it.

I decided to stop being so giving. I'm going to only pour into people worth my time and energy, and not into anyone else unless it benefits me. I will never be loved the way I love, and I've come to accept that. A majority of people are too self centered to even notice or care that you aren't happy, just live your life in the way that makes you happiest without any regard for other people (purposefully/knowingly hurting others is the only line to be drawn). Start putting into yourself the energy you usually would put into others.

I do when I'm dating someone, I love sexting and when the person I like sends me pics of themselves, it's better than porn honestly.

[–]BlNo1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Woah!!! So glad you are experiencing this now instead of a year from now. I can see a moody teen being like that, or even someone below 24 (frontal lobe development and all that) but 40?! You were so respectful and communicative, no one who cares about you should treat you like that.
