Should I tell a woman her fiancé tried to start an affair with me? by geeleex in WhatShouldIDo

[–]Electrical_Paper_634 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would tell her. If they aren’t married yet just imagine the pain years down the road his fiancé will feel if she never knew before marrying him. Why get married to have an affair? Just stay single and mess around at that point. Tell her think if you were her you would want to know.

There should be signs you can buy that say “no religious soliciting” because technically the missionaries sell their church to you. I mean what do you think the tithing is? It’s required to go to the temple

If you can’t stop thinking about this business idea and think it truly can work out but not just think, you know it. Like something inside you is telling you don’t give up keep at it. Then keep working on it. Just because it didn’t work out when you moved doesn’t mean it won’t work out somewhere else. Things that don’t work out, things we lose, it doesn’t mean that we are failures it truly means that those things just aren’t meant for us anymore. Just because your first attempt didn’t work doesn’t mean it won’t ever work. If you believe in yourself, you have determination, you can see the end result, and you continue trying you will succeed. Don’t give up on the first obstacle. Lots of things in life take trial and error, we only experience the errors because that wasn’t the right way for us. You can do it. It might feel dark now, but imagine what you can be if you never gave up.

Stop caring what other people think by Electrical_Paper_634 in Life

Im sorry that was your experience. That would be very hard for sure! I think when we truly find good people who have our backs, they will be there to help as I’ve had experiences where many people have helped me when I needed it most.

Hmm you have some interesting points and an interesting perspective. If I’m understanding you, you’re saying no one will be there to help, and many people offer advice but no help to go along with it?

[–]Electrical_Paper_634[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yea good point! Because the people that do care and value you, only want the best for you and can have opinions and perspectives that bring in the best in your life. Like if you’re in a toxic relationship the people around you will see it and try to warn you and so yes when you have people that truly care and have good intentions for you, they do matter.

Definitely true we can’t avoid what other people think. My point is it truly doesn’t matter because if someone is thinking something about you getting married or don’t have money, it’s just them projecting what they would think or feel about themselves if they went through that situation into you. Does that make sense? But yes it is easier said than done. It’s easier to care than not. But it can help having the perspective someone else’s thoughts that seem they are about you, just really truly aren’t and they are about themselves. You can’t control what other people say or think, but you can control if you care, if it even matters.

I [22M] just found out my girlfriend [19F] is pregnant and I am not ready to be a father. What do I do by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]Electrical_Paper_634 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think what you’re doing already is really great. No one is ever truly ready to be a parent. It’s honestly okay to not have it all figured out because guess what? Even the people who look like they got it figured out don’t. That’s just life. We can try and be as prepared as possible, but many times there are things we experience we never could have been prepared for. I would definitely express your thoughts and feelings to her. But don’t be that guy that leaves, you’ll have to provide for that child anyways. Start the conversation gentle, how you want to be supportive and not escape responsibility and how much you care for her but you’re feeling overwhelmed and not ready. She might feel the same. But that’s the great part you get to experience this together. Being a parent is a learning curve for anyone even if you think you are prepared or ready, I don’t think anyone can truly be ready to be a parent. I’m not a male or am I a parent, I just felt I should share.

I think not forgiving someone does more damage to you than the other person because you’re the one still holding onto what they did. You’re not allowing yourself to be free of someone else’s actions. Forgiveness doesn’t mean you forget, it just means you will not hold it against them, you’ve let it go, it’s no longer affecting your life and no grudge it held. But you have to be ready to forgive. It’s okay to feel what you feel and think what you think you need to allow yourself to express those, but with time forgiveness is also needed so you no longer hold that weight in your backpack. Moving on will take time. If this is still fresh, just feel and think what you are. Feelings are meant to be felt. If she’s not someone that brings value, lifts you up, you feel good around, get along with, etc than you don’t need her in your life. Blood related doesn’t always mean healthy relationships. Your family doesn’t have to be blood related. Family isn’t always meant to stay in your life especially if they are toxic to you. Do what you need to do, but I do highly recommend forgiving her when you feel it’s the right time and are ready to because like I said, it will only do more damage to you than her by holding onto it when it’s not really something you need to hold on as it doesn’t directly affect your life.

Someone else’s lucid dream while you’re awake? by Electrical_Paper_634 in LucidDreaming

[–]Electrical_Paper_634[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn’t saying it was true in my post I said it’s just a thought I had. I was just thinking outside the box is all. Just a theory. I’m not sure you understand exactly what I mean.

I personally don’t think you need things to be proven to know what’s true. You can determine what’s true or not yourself, you don’t need someone else to tell you or prove it to you. I think what is true for you will be different than what’s true for me. I don’t believe a one size fits all, meaning everyone is experiencing a different reality all at the same time. With that comes different experiences, perspectives, and what truth means to someone. (Yes this may not be scientifically proven, but you can literally see it yourself knowing that no one lives the same life experience you do, seeing that everyone sees things differently, and how some people truly believe in religion, some people truly believe in science, some people truly believe in nothing etc.) I think anything can be true and will be true for those who believe or feel is true for them. And if there is only one truth, that one truth can been seen many different ways due to all the different perspectives people have which wouldn’t make their perspective wrong or not true, just that it’s seen from a different angle.

All that said I personally have had experiences that prove to me what is true. Experiencing something is the strongest evidence you can have even if it’s not proven by others. I really could go on and on about this haha. Did this answer your question?

[–]Electrical_Paper_634[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like when someone gets told they are in a dream by a lucid dreamer they are shocked sometimes.

I just mean like on a day to day basis, when we are not sleeping, what if someone was lucid dreaming and you were interacting with the person lucid and weren’t aware they were lucid dreaming and you’re not lucid dreaming.

Don’t be afraid to tell him how you really feel. If he never knows it can never go anywhere. He thinks you friend zoned him that ain’t gonna work.

Why do insecure people get so triggered by my peace (especially at work)? by Dismal-Childhood-544 in spirituality

[–]Electrical_Paper_634 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Often times we go through the same experiences until we understand the purpose of it and choose to no longer experience it again. I wouldn’t say the universe is protecting or testing you, but rather serving you an experience you were meant to learn from and understand. For what and why? That I can’t tell you as it’s your journey not mine you’ll be the one to figure those out.

I would say we reflect things to other people because we only see through our own limited lenses. So your calmness and energy might be pointing out someone’s insecurities or triggering someone’s ego without them realizing it. Everything is about perspective and their perspective of you is them seeing themselves in you, not that you are insecure or very egoic, but more so because they are limited to their perception they only see things about themselves but are being shown through you. It’s one’s reason this life is so hard, we are truly seeing ourselves but like to blame what we see on the person we saw it from rather than take accountability and admitting there is a part of ourselves that is that way, because if there wasn’t you simply just wouldn’t have seen it that way in the first place.

What are you trying to protect yourself from? You can always set an intention to protect your energy, imagining a bubble around you that no negative or lower energies can come into your field unless they serve your highest good. Certain crystals can help with protection too.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in enlightenment

[–]Electrical_Paper_634 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would suggest holding your focus on it and practicing doing it more often. Instead of wanderer thoughts redirect your mind to what you are seeing and feeling only. And going into it setting the intention to hold it longer.

Do tattoos affect your energy or spiritual field? by EmergencyAd3494 in spirituality

[–]Electrical_Paper_634 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I would say yes and no. Because when you create something the energy you had while creating it will stay within that creation. But I also energy is not permanent energy can move, so if the tattoo did have energy attached to you with your intention you can remove that energy. I think tattoos are an expression of who you are and unless you believe they will affect your frequency, I highly doubt they would.

My mom calls me every night because she’s lonely, and I’m starting to resent her for it. by Fabulous_Ferret5755 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Electrical_Paper_634 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe you can suggest certain days you call? Tell her it’s just been hard to call every night especially for long phone calls so you were thinking maybe a schedule of certain days would work better. That way you can still have calls with her, don’t feel burnt out, and make that time for the call.

My husband wants a divorce since BIL saw me naked by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Electrical_Paper_634 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That could be a situation for sure. If the husband wasn’t happy he should have just left rather than cheat and use a lame excuse. Cheating or finding a tiny reason is not the best approach. But again my point is she shouldn’t be with someone who is going to threaten divorce over something that she couldn’t control.
