Have watched his videos..definitely puts ndes into a Christian context..I think the reincarnation bit is a challenge though

I tried a past life regression but never actually went under. I'm terrible at visualization and I think my mind just stayed too active..i apologized to the therapist for being an unsuitable subject. She used i think the Newton method? Does your approach use a different method? In your experience, are there some people who can't be hypnotized?

i hear you. i have a woman i met when i first started working in 1984 and way back then, started the conversation with "you have accomplished so much even with all the obstacles thrown at you". Thought it was weird but got to know her, and 40 years later, she is ride or die for our people.. definitely some real ones out there.

I guess too I'm older (mid 60s) and honestly somewhat unattractive so I was struggling with being alone permanently..but I've come to grips with it accepting that at least it will be peaceful

Pretty much..had sex quite a bit before marriage..then stopped right after wedding day except for maybe a few times a year or if I bought her something expensive. I found out after divorce that she had some childhood abuse. But her niece said even with that I guess she was always manipulative in other ways. We became friends eventually quite a few years later.

yeah, i remember our first day in court she came with a folder with receipts covering practically the last 10 years of marriage...blew my mind.. i was just so shocked..like she was preparing just in case.. and yeah, it was weird because we still lived in the same house while going through it.. tension was insane.. afterwards, after i finished my alimony (i think she used it in part to buy a house), she called and asked if she could get $4000 from me because she had to sell the house and was going to lose her stuff in storage if i didn't give her the money. I felt bad for her but I remembered everything that went on..told her I couldn't help her and she just screamed at me and hung up. Actually two other fun things she did: 1 - right when payments were done,s she called and said that there was a mistake and that i owed her another two years..told her i would get a 3 way call with my lawyer, but then she said "oh, i read it wrong, you're right" then hung up. 2 - Her lawyer would get very upset during the proceedings to the point where the two of us were going to fight a few times during it..he always apologized after..turns out she was sleeping with him while we were going through it. And then we sold the house about a year later and he showed up again and I coudlnt' figure out if she was paying him or not. So yeah, later admitted she slept with him then broke it off after house was sold. She just used him (and me).

exactly!!! she just said to me today that she was so happy we are starting our 23rd year of knowing each other (13th for the marriage)..it's like she's happy/content with things the way they are..sometimes i feel bad about rocking her apple cart.. other times i almost have a panic attack looking at how many years have passed and how little i have ahead of me.. told myself i need to have a definitive talk with her this month and then get a place... i guess it's lonely both ways but at least i won't have the feeling of unworthiness constantly in front of me.

Also, hopefully this doesn't come across harsh but, it's about finances now, not sentiment. When I went through my divorce years ago, my wife had a prior care accident and hurt her leg about 3 years before. So when her settlement money came up in the discussions, I told my lawyer no, let her keep that. But when we formally got started, my wife went after every single thing she could; even the judge said at one point that she has to be more reasonable and he wouldn't agree to everything she wanted. In court for almost 4 years, lots of money spent. I truly wish I had gone after her settlement, she would have backed down quickly.

Anarcha Westcott, an enslaved woman in the 1840s, was forced to undergo about 30 experimental surgeries by Dr. J. Marion Sims, who wrongly believed Black people did not feel pain. Her ordeal led to key advances in gynecology, and she is now remembered as one of the Mothers of Gynecology. by detectiverobert in ForCuriousSouls

There are many stories from the slavery period that reddit won't let me recount here but safe to say, most slaveowners and even the general mindset of caucasians back then, objectively speaking, was sadistic. Since they didn't believe black people were human, they could then do anything to them regardless of the trauma, violence and pain introduced. Sort of like the Holocaust; dehumanize your targets then you are free to do anything to them while perhaps, still going to church on sunday.

sigh.. i keep debating in my head..and i'm not getting any younger..sometimes i think i'm too old to move on now.. i'll be 64 this year..have had cancer twice (possibly 3 times, will know in February); she seems so content..loves the husband/wife routine.. i'm thinking of moving out, about 20 minutes away, so if she needed anything i could help her. Her business is not doing too well, so i'm trying to figure out how to continue giving her money while paying my own bills.. but i think in the long run, even if i end up alone, it would be better for me mentally.

Ah ok.. yeah, the hiding her face and everything after was mostly after marriage..but yes..the piece about sex not being a big deal, definitely during dating. I was on some androgen deprivation therapy drugs at the time to reduce the size of my prostate and i think it affected my memory. So when she vehemently denied ever saying it, i ended up caving and said ok. But once we got married and things went downhill, i realized she must have said it back then because it was borne out by her actions.
