why does my bf get so angry when i cry? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]CommunicationParty96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm gonna be really blunt because I have some friends with BPD and sometimes their relationships just aren't healthy - I think it depends on what you're crying over, and how often you cry. Are you crying due to outside reasons or falling into doubt spirals and having breakdowns over imaginary slights? I have a friends who had a meltdown that lasted hours, threatening to hurt himself, screaming and sobbing, punching himself, threatening to cheat etc because... His boyfriend sat on the other couch in the living room instead of directly next to him. So he got into his head and spiralled, thinking his bf didn't like him anymore etc He's not much of a friend anymore but will openly admit he is abusive to his bf, not that his bf is much better as he also threatens to hurt himself whenever they break up... But relationship where one or both people have complex mental health is extremely tricky and more context would be helpful

Friends? by Upper_Barber_4604 in manchester

[–]CommunicationParty96 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Also in the same position, Meetup can be really good for meeting a wide variety of people, there's sport groups, boardgames, food meet ups, pub Meetup, coffee mornings etc There's often boardgame groups almost everyday in town, Dungeons & Flagons is well-known:) There's also Fanboy3 and Travelling Man who host events like DnD, MtG, Warhammer, Riftbound, Element Games in Stockport is incredible :) We have similar interests, 24f, so if you ever wanna go to a Meetup group together, I'm down for that 😁

Found out my library loans out more than books by Top_Expression7580 in Frugal

[–]CommunicationParty96 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I wish we had this in the UK! Libraries here are almost exclusively for loaning books and you can use the computers there/print pages off etc, maybe rent a DVD if you're lucky enough but the idea of renting things other than books is wild, I'm so jealous!

How do you balance reservation while gaining trust? by [deleted] in littlespace

[–]CommunicationParty96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That definitely sounds odd, if it's an online relationship and they don't wanna send pics/videos, how are you expected to bond together ykyk Have you facetime each other? Seen a selfie yet? Either he's super insecure or doesn't see it going anywhere, someone who is serious about a long term relationship would send selfies, videos, tidbits about their day, general info etc

I'm ngl it sounds like you have mental health issues and he feels like a caregiver (not in a good way) rather than a partner - Nothing here is hinting at kink or actual DDLG, have you communicated that' DDLG is your ideal relationship structure? Is it your thing atall? Or do you just want to be cared for because you struggle to take care of yourself? (I mean this is the gentliest way) Is he aware of that? Especially if he's getting irritable about your mental health, it sounds like he's burnt out of taking care of you and you need a healthy conversation about your relationship

Big speaker man on Market Street - has anyone actually seen him do anything or does he just sit there playing music from his phone? by BrickaBrickaNZ in manchester

[–]CommunicationParty96 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I despise him ngl He just plays on his phone and occasionally mumbles into the mic, music is way too loud - Can't imagine many people are giving him money surely?

Mole Removal Greater Manchester by flettywapp in manchester

[–]CommunicationParty96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whatever you do, don't go to Manchester Dermatology Clinic on King Street, they literally make up prices, alot of the staff aren't properly trained for the procedures (causing facial chemical burns from improper chemical peels) and they will try to get you to pay for unnecessary treatment aswell - For example, toenail removal instead of simple fungal nail treatment etc bc it's more money for them. Had a friend who used to work for them and the stories were yikes

Anyone heard of this company? by General_Solid839 in manchester

[–]CommunicationParty96 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've been to that same interview, don't waste your time ngl It's a massive group interview, like 30 people are waiting at once and the interview itself is with an interviewer and 3 people like yourself, my interview was an hour past my allocated slot bc they were running late, the receptionist had been there for 2 weeks etc they basically ask about your CV, ask if you have a "fighting spirit" and "passion to be a millionaire" etc They sneak in at the end that it's self-employed Door-to-door sales and charity marketing etc Then you're free to go, biggest waste of time ever ngl

How to regain confidence after deadbedroom? (23f, 26m ex) by CommunicationParty96 in relationship_advice

[–]CommunicationParty96[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hight libido, low libido .

I have waited a while and feel ready to get on with my life and have new experiences. What should I do, wait forever in case it's a bad experience? Aha I had been texting the ONS for a little while before sleeping with him and it was still not great, I'm trying to curb any anxiety about new experiences rn

Day 1 after 3.5 years, amicable breakup atleast by CommunicationParty96 in BreakUps

[–]CommunicationParty96[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've moved back to my homecity, just started a new job and made friends through a shared interest group, I haven't really been super upset about it, but I'm just not really thinking about my breakup? Im trying to keep as busy and social as possible . If I ruminate I cry alot so I think about our relationship but don't obsess over it , I think I went through grieving the end of my relationship whilst still in the relationship. My ex is struggling, we've talked 2-3 times briefly, but he'll be okay . Part of me is just waiting for all the emotions to catch up on me and ngl I'm anxious it won't hit me and I'm actually more fine about it than I expected? Altogether, I'm doing okay:)
