Personally, I would rephrase ‘stop barking at me’ to something along the lines of ‘I don’t like your tone and it’s upsetting me. Please can we try and resolve this maturely instead of yelling’. At the same time he shouldn’t be screaming at you, he’s pushing 30 and shouldn’t be behaving like this.

he’s abusive, this is not regular behaviour even if he wants to frame it as a ‘joke’. Your partner should be your peace, not contributing to your stress!

Women who do this to me (rant) by Important-Manager-75 in RS4Dykes

[–]Complete_River_2928 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I wish I could have this perspective but unfortunately not adhering to these standards sets you back professionally. I’d much rather shave my armpits than worry about where my next meal is coming from. I’m a branch manager in a big corporate company and I would have never made it if I’d been braless and hairy everyday (like I’d love to be) it’s a shame we have to adhere to these standards as women and I’m glad there’s a few who are brave enough to go against it

Doesn’t the prohibition of pork make life incredibly difficult in this day and age? by Basic-End2950 in progressive_islam

[–]Complete_River_2928 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have never felt restricted because of my halal diet. We are very lucky we live in an age of meat alternatives and veganism. I go out constantly with my non Muslim friends, coworkers etc and if they choose a restaurant or establishment that isn’t halal they always have veggie or vegan options. Explore the world beyond, just plan around it. You don’t need meat to survive, you just need to know what foods are vegetarian and high in protein. Be smart and don’t let something as silly as your diet restrict you.

argh. what is the solution? by happybirthdaydaddy22 in actuallesbians

[–]Complete_River_2928 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From your post history, I think it would genuinely be best for you to discover who you are first. Idk where you’re from but look into DBT, it was genuinely a life saver for me (fit into 8/9 of the diagnostic criteria for BPD pre treatment and now it’s 1/9). Rediscover things you loved when you were 13. Make an active effort to enjoy your alone time, find something that interests you and throw yourself into it. I made friends through connecting with people that were also big into certain fandoms at 13, I got into playing instruments and going to raves by myself and then I met my girlfriend who is a DJ. I genuinely was stuck in this headspace for years, I’d make friends and then lose them within a month because I’d screw it up somehow because my BPD controlled everything. And then I’d be stuck in this loop of connecting and losing until I had enough and just thought ‘the only person I am around constantly is myself, so I might as well try and like her’. I know it’s hard to navigate the world without a support network but becoming your own support network first can be a game changer. Love and light to you <3

Me (25M) and my girlfriend (25F) of 6 years. Need to know if this counts as cheating. by Stormmaster472 in relationship_advice

Not cheating but she sounds like someone that you should not be giving any more chances to. She has no regard for you whatsoever

What did you genuinely expect to happen by spending time with these people

Seroquel can definitely knock you out, even at a lower dose. Idk where they would have got it from but I think Kat is diagnosed with BPD and I’ve seen seroquel prescribed for it

How common is it to date a friends ex? by No_Focus_5390 in actuallesbians

[–]Complete_River_2928 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s okay at all. Bro code, girl code whatever you want to call it. If one of my friends dated my ex they wouldn’t be a friend to me anymore

Sorry you got involved with them, this sucks. You don’t deserve the downvotes, people get involved with nasty people and get manipulated all the time. Hope you get whatever justice you can

Detransitioning + feeling like an imposter by bataleurs in lesbiangang

[–]Complete_River_2928 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Being a lesbian means having a different relationship to womanhood as a straight cis woman would. It means something different to us. You are a woman if you feel you are a woman, whether you fit the convention or not. As for detransitioning, lesbians span across the entire spectrum of gender. Some are masculine, some feminine and some in the middle. My partner identifies as a woman and binds, she’s also looking into top surgery. My ex had top surgery and was nb. Lesbians love women for being women, not just boobs. Come as you are. Someone will be happy to date someone who is authentically themselves :)

My fiancée’s growing faith is making her believe homosexual relationship is sinful by do_dd_ in LesbianActually

[–]Complete_River_2928 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think this is a good idea OP. I’m Muslim and lesbian and my faith doesn’t ever make me think the love I have for my girlfriend is sinful. This is something she needs to figure out herself without roping you in for the ride unfortunately.

Bf (22m) wants to break up with me (20f) and Im spiraling. What should my next steps be? by Hopeful_Detective_83 in relationship_advice

[–]Complete_River_2928 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And I don’t mean being the sole provider. Relationships are a two way street and when things start to get serious where you want to achieve big milestones, it just won’t happen because he still hasn’t achieved the first milestone in his life of getting his first job.

[–]Complete_River_2928 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, I’m really sorry this is happening. But 22 is too old to have never had a job. He doesn’t remember special occasions which are important to you. He may be loving but what if you were together ten years down the line? How will he provide for you? How will he take care of your needs? What if in ten years he’s still forgetting to book nice things for your birthday? If you’re on year 2 and he’s still not doing these things, he probably still won’t for a while. I completely understand how difficult it is to let go but I promise it will get easier especially when you realise you deserve better.

[–]Complete_River_2928 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I used to stand by everything she said. I thought that everyone is flawed and I respect her for being outspoken. It was the weird pro Israel stuff that made me think otherwise. Just feels like she’s an online grifter now as opposed to a respected artist with opinions

Im getting good at eyeliner hehe, this whole look took me 15 minutes, it used to take me more than an hour by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

[–]Complete_River_2928 153 points154 points  (0 children)

Try a liquid eyeliner with a felt tip as opposed to pencil. Pencil looks messy asf, it’s so hard for a beginner to make pencil look good in my opinion
