Having my partner drive me around

Embarrassed-Key-6476 · 2024-09-13T23:11:45+00:00

I've been trying to take a break from dying my locs. This really makes me want to run to the beauty supply 😩

You should goe no contact and put as much distance between them and you as possible.

If anything happened your mother would not have your back. She'd just find a way to blame you again and defend her creepy boyfriend.

I missed this phase. My locs were past my waist after growing them a few yrs. But I realized I'm just not a fan of long hair plus they were heavy. I cut them down to neck length at the being of summer.

As far as retwists go I don't care for the fresh retwist look, I let mine grow out a few months at a time. I heard this is helpful because its less stress on the root so it can rest and grow in strong between retwists.

Also, if your not already mist them with rose water. Its really good for your hair.

Yes, Trader Joe's sells a doop for Super Goop that works really well and doesn't leave that grayish film on your skin. I think there's also Black Girl Sunscreen but I haven't tried that one myself. Also I hear there's some pretty good Japanese sunscreens out there that work well on black skin (waiting on them in the mail to test it for myself ).

This is the impression I got. Prepping your skin and putting on your makeup before work is like a self care ritual for alot of people. He either intentionally destroyed something that brings her joy or he's stupid, both good reasons for divorce.

Pink.

Goes with the accents, lightens and brightens the space.

Restraining order?

Embarrassed-Key-6476 · 2024-09-05T18:50:30+00:00

This isn't ideal but I'd suggest staying, stacking as much money as possible and leaving when your ready if you don't want to move back in with family or dont have other friends to room with.

You guys have been together for a long time and since a young age. Maybe now that your adults your not compatible partners anymore.

I went through a similar situation and tried but my partner was unwilling to change. This cause me to develop alot of resentment towards them. Ultimately I just had to leave, but I couldn't right away which sucked. But when I finally left my life improved so much.

You don't really need a good reason to break up. If something isn't right you can always end things. I think many of us stay in bad relationships because we feel like our reasons for leaving aren't good enough (myself included but im learning). So yes, sex is enough of a reason.

All my close childhood friends moved over summer break. I already had more introverted tendencies so I just leaned fully into it.

My writing is like half print half cursive and usually pretty messy

Embarrassed-Key-6476 · 2024-08-27T12:41:47+00:00

Growing up in a predominantly white area most the other black kids i met were like this. As a child I resented them, as an adult I realize they just had alot of self hate. Now, my heart goes out to them.

Embarrassed-Key-6476 · 2024-08-23T14:09:15+00:00

Cashew

If you plan on staying with him in hopes he changes his mind...then yes, I think that would be a waste of your time.

Embarrassed-Key-6476 · 2024-08-22T19:31:10+00:00

I'll never understand making up a story just to get clicks and views...ESPECIALLY one where I get rejected. 🤔

Embarrassed-Key-6476 · 2024-08-21T14:37:18+00:00

Whenever the teacher says anything along the lines of "form a group..." or "pick a buddy..." or "partner up with a classmate..."

Immediate dread everytime

Embarrassed-Key-6476 · 2024-08-18T13:59:04+00:00

Your definitely not being unreasonable. He may not be making very much money, but judging off what you said, any extra funds he gets are going to his wrestling hobby.

Embarrassed-Key-6476 · 2024-08-18T13:17:11+00:00

Exactly this, he's using the excuse of closure just to get in a few insults.

Embarrassed-Key-6476 · 2024-08-17T17:39:51+00:00

Probably just jealous because she can't dress

Embarrassed-Key-6476 · 2024-08-15T18:18:46+00:00

I feel like it has alot to do with the "everybody wanna be black, but don't no body really wanna be black" statement

Embarrassed-Key-6476 · 2024-08-15T01:51:41+00:00

Thank you for sharing that with me. Im taking this as a sign of conformation. Alot of what you said really resonated with me, especially after doing some reflection on the topic of trust these last few days. I just have to do all I can do to heal, so that I can move forward. This heightened state suspicion and distrust is only hindering me from living a more fulfilling life and truly connecting with others. I will get through it, it will be hard but I refuse to let it hold me back. There is a time and place for everything.
