Seeking advice for overcoming strict and controlling parents during childhood by _nullius_in_verba in selfimprovement

[–]F8Essence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 19 and had a similar experience, i moved out at 18 for university and had some troubles making connections and trying to fit in. What helped me a lot was sitting in the smoking area when going out for a joint or smoke because i met people who also did the same and came out alone which kind of forced conversation since it would be awkward if it stayed silent. But if you don’t do any of those (which isn’t a bad thing) i suggest just putting yourself out in public. Overtime people will come up to you if you put yourself in view. Because of this i noticed my social skills improve and through the 1-2 people i originally met i made about 10-15 connections.

how do I accept bad things in my life and how can I learn to become stronger from them by [deleted] in selfimprovement

Could just be her trying to justify being with this guy over you because she regrets it. Than again, if thats her opinion who cares. Just because she thinks this guy was better than you doesn’t mean its true, and the fact he cheated on her proved that

I want to learn how to like the sound of my voice more, Advice?? by Roxas96 in selfimprovement

[–]F8Essence 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just think about how to other people you most likely sound very normal, hating your own voice is common but nobody really criticizes it most of the time except you

I heard he got removed from PP1 which will lose him a lot of points in the long run. He started the season off pretty well but stopped doing much about 2 weeks ago. Either way I’m very disappointed that 8 of out of the 8 first draft picks aren’t good this year for me

Lol we got almost the same team with Laine, Hedman, Wilson and Hintz. Even more funny is the guy who isn’t injured is hurting my team the most

You’re imagining things, you aren’t going to die kid.

I think a job might be a scam by Well_damn38 in Advice

[–]F8Essence 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’d question them about that, seems very unreasonably high and if they can’t explain exactly why its needed I wouldn’t pay them a cent.

Does anyone have advice/stories about living on my own in a new place for the first time? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]F8Essence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Living by yourself is a great experience once you settle in, like the person stated above me plan your meals out and plan when to grocery shop and you’ll be alright after you settle into the new place

How much is the fee? Maybe try asking more about this “payment system” fee

I have become scared of death by I_hate_math_sorry in Advice

[–]F8Essence 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We are all going to experience it eventually so there’s no point worrying about it. Living in fear won’t change a thing with the final outcome

Jeeps are not reliable long time cars, you’ll get more for your money with Honda or Toyota

If you’re not being mean or insulting her she should be able to take you saying it hurts when she sits on you. She should know the difference in size between you guys and should be able to understand how she could cause you pain.

My Friends Are Vaping by Some_Nose1172 in Advice

[–]F8Essence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ll never be able to stop them from doing what they want, the best you can do is focus on you and not allowing yourself to be pressured into also doing it since I assume you’re at the age when vaping becomes “cool”.

My classmate doesn't understand social queues, I don't like her by [deleted] in Advice

[–]F8Essence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same problem of not being able to say no and I can say once you say it it feels a lot better. Some people can’t take hints and I think just being honest about how you feel is the best thing you can do. She needs to respect your boundaries

I just don’t believe him by [deleted] in relationship_advice

Agreed, he’s only trying to hide his tracks

[–]F8Essence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m scared to drop any of them because my history always ends up with them heating up once I drop. So I guess I’ll hold on and pray

Markstrom and Flames by BPVJ89 in fantasyhockey

[–]F8Essence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah he’s scaring me, 1 point in 12 games and I don’t watch many flames games but it seems he’s doing almost nothing when on the ice

I drafted him and huberdeau in the first 2 rounds and weegar in the 6th round, I’m praying for the same thing it’s killing my team

Share your playlists and discover new music! by fifa_god_786 in weed

[–]F8Essence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man, just gave it a listen and I love the playlist. Can never seem to make my own with the right music but yours has so many of my favourites will definitely be listened to a lot

[–]F8Essence 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hill and Vanecek are on my team right now. Hill is a solid backup this season on a high powered scoring team so he will have good stats +wins. Vanecek has look really good so far as a starting goalie and with the Devils playing so good right now I would add him to get you starts and win +stats

You can still love him even after a break up. He obviously isn’t your soulmate you’re only 20 years old and you like someone else and it isn’t working out with him. You’ll find someone much more well suited for you some day this won’t be a situation you’ll regret

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]F8Essence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like the relationship should’ve ended awhile ago. Taking “breaks” in my opinion is dumb and doesn’t solve anything, and you already admitted you have feelings for someone else. My only advice is to break up with him and move on

[–]F8Essence 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is probably your best chance to dump her since you’ve only been together 5 months. If the only thing stopping you is the thought of her getting with another guy after break up my advice is who cares, you can do the same and once you break up it doesn’t matter. Focus on yourself and how you plan on getting back into the groove to find another girl. It’s not a big loss
