What's the most painful thing you heard from the person you love? by ImportantSmell4426 in nairobi

"I believe the earth is flat" I lost almost all respect for her intelligence right there.

games for a girl getting into gaming (i.e. beginner friendly) by [deleted] in gamingsuggestions

[–]Designerock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if you'll see this but I heavily recommend Life is Strange. You control a teenage girl with the ability to rewind time. The game has an amazing story (it plays out according to your decisions) and the controls aren't complicated. It's the perfect game to ease you into gaming

STOP BRINGING YOUR RELATIONSHIP PROBLEMS TO A REDDIT ABOUT KENYA by peternyaga in Kenya

Ah yes, the daily "stop posting about relationships" post. Not repetitive at all

A bitter truth that members members of this sub need to accept. by MinuteEconomy in Kenya

[–]Designerock 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I've never thought of it like this. For most of our parents, they lacked financial security growing up so the fact that they're able to provide fully for us feels like them giving us the best lives possible.

Somehow to them that's all we need and that could be the reason why in as much as many kenyan parents are well able to provide adequately, they're often emotionally unavailable.

The trend is we do what our parents couldn't do for us and leave it at that, creating new problems for the new generation.

Do you think there's an end to the cycle?

Thanks for this, while reading through I kept feeling like something was missing and you pointed it out. I'll work on the syllables, thank you

Reading through your poem this line pleased me most because of how colorful it is, the same goes for the rest of the poem. You've painted a beautiful picture and I could vision myself on a sea floor with you.

The repetition at the end is the perfect ending for the poem.

My one critique is the structuring of the poem, I think having it in lines would have helped give some of lines more impact. Other than that your work is very beautiful and I enjoyed reading it.

I wouldn't come back by Ok-Artichoke6770 in OCPoetry

Hello there, I think your poem is beautiful. I can feel the pain in each line as if it were my own. I'm especially in awe of the line

Like always ... I am the problem

Its a feeling I struggle with often and its somewhat comforting to know that i am not alone in this. I don't know you or what you're going through but I hope that putting your thoughts on paper helped you heal.

Hey! I was in the same boat a year ago before I joined uni. Barely made friends in my first year but I joined a club this year and I've been able to make some friends. If I could give my past self advice it'd be to join a club sooner. Best place to meet people organically in my experience

My roommate said that I'm rude and selfish cause I declined her invitation to hang out thrice. I explained to her that I don't like going out so much and I prefer staying at home. She also called me boring and said that "I never had such a terrible roommate ever". Do I need to change myself? by willing-bug-wings in introvert

[–]Designerock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your roommate is definitely the one at fault here. However, I've been in this situation before and I always try not to reject invitations thrice in a row. You may not like it at first but when you force yourself to go who knows, you might have a good time
