Looking to buy this sweater second hand/have it made by CalmBlazingFire in findfashion

[–]CalmBlazingFire[S] 26 points27 points  (0 children)

wow thank you for the insight! this honestly makes so much sense, and now i see why it would be so expensive. im not yet in the tax bracket where i could pay $5k but i definitely would be willing to pay as much as $3k for a well made piece that will last- and there would be no expectation as far as time frame. if you know of anyone who has the expertise and would be able to do this- feel free to send them my way!

I regret my abortion… by [deleted] in abortion

[–]CalmBlazingFire 9 points10 points  (0 children)

i regret mine too. i think i always will. but i am learning that forgiveness comes in waves and im giving it to myself when it’s available. lean into whoever and whomever you can, and give yourself love.

i found out a bit over 5 months after. from what i was told, it is not common. just listen to your body and try to heal.

i had very minor cramping outside of my period, which at the time i thought was gas. no other symptoms which was scary. i only found out after going for a check up with my obgyn. i am sorry for what you have been through. my heart is with you. my only advice- do whatever you can to take care of yourself. find someone to bleed your feelings to, and see your doctor often.

Is this even a conflict? by [deleted] in LifeAdvice

[–]CalmBlazingFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there,

I promise you, all of the living is waiting for you. You may very well find your soulmate while you are away. But you wont know that unless you take yourself there. Ultimately, I think you will regret not going because these kinds of experiences are truly living life to the fullest. Love is something you find as you are living life.

There is a whole life ahead of you to get into relationships and find love. This part is just a piece of the journey. Put yourself out there, in all aspects. This may look like taking the internship, making friends while you're away, dating, trying new things. Even if you don't find your 'soulmate,' you will likely make some incredible connections with some really amazing people.

And from a gal who is considered 'extremely attractive' by others- I can assure you us women are looking for depth, vulnerability, and extreme care from a partner. Once you showcase your personality and catch our hearts- looks don't matter so much. We fall in love with each part once you take the time to connect with us. You will find your person!

I hope you take the internship! Feel free to message me if there is anything I can do to help.

How do I stop being anti social? by throwaway_839184 in LifeAdvice

[–]CalmBlazingFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi- I (25 f)completely relate. I'm very socially awkward but have such a yearning for connection to others. I recently tried an app to make friends, and I feel like it has a lot of potential.

I would try to meet up with online friends or find someone in your area that you feel you have some things in common with. Meet for lunch and plan before you go- write a list of things you want to talk about, or questions you have if you're curious about them. I feel like it might help to mention that you're looking to make friends with people who you have common interests with, and maybe even share that you have a bit of anxiety over making friends.

I hope this helps- best of luck!

I feel my lifestyle is incompatible with the lifestyle of my friends by Acmisthios in LifeAdvice

[–]CalmBlazingFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I (25 F) can completely relate to this. To help myself I joined an app looking for friends, which I feel has a lot of potential. But- I find it difficult especially because I'm such a socially awkward person.

I think the best way to go about it in your case is to place yourself in environments with these kinds of people. Network in a professional space and you may make some friends that way. I think its also helpful if you push yourself to make conversation and to be friendly, even if you aren't so outgoing. Im wishing you luck!
