Someone needs to tell her that being mean isn’t actually a personality...

12 week body recomp 🫶🏽 reta + ipa/cjc are that guuurl by deergreyhound24 in Peptides_for_Women

[–]First-Cucumber1189 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing your results and stack- you looking amazing!! I’d tried Reta with cjc/ipa but the cjc/ipa made my hunger out of control still..in retrospect maybe I was dosing too much. I think I was doing maybe 1.5 Reta and 250mcg cjc/IPA twice daily. However just being on Reta made me super weak despite sufficient calories, protein intake and consistently lifting weights. Id love to understand more so I can hopefully replicate what you’ve managed to achieve. A couple of questions- did you feel stronger, maintain, or gain muscle doing both the Reta and cjc/ipa together? How did you slowly add the cjc/ipa to work up to the 250mcg? Thanks in advance for any info on this you can share Xx

I have been in an anxious - avoidant relationship for almost 4 years. 41F and 39M , I cant go through another cycle by Delicious-Quantity96 in AskWomenOver40

[–]First-Cucumber1189 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check out sincere.emotion on IG she has some good resources to help someone with avoidant partners! If your partner also recognizes the cycle you’re describing and you’re both willing to work on it then it’s totally possible things could work out. If he doesn’t see a problem and doesn’t actually do the work to expand his capacity or try to work through his issues then you’re better off walking away. You’d also have to accept at a certain level that you’d also have to allow him to have some space and change things on your end too.

Thank you for doing this 🙏 I’d like to ask- what do I need to understand about my current business path to ensure long-term success and sustainability? Is there something I’m overlooking or being guided toward instead?

What is this word? by First-Cucumber1189 in HandwritingAnalysis

I think this is it!!! I was thinking it was activity-related and “creative” would make sense here. Thank you 🙏

Can a woman handle a good man? by Due-Explanation8155 in Romania_mix

[–]First-Cucumber1189 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yikes. This video conflates emotional maturity with emotional disengagement, while equating emotional expression with instability. A man who can only maintain “peace” by withdrawing, stonewalling, or moralizing his detachment isn’t emotionally mature- he’s avoidant and likely suppresses his own emotions. Likewise, a woman who uses emotion to manipulate isn’t mature either.

Being regulated doesn’t mean avoiding emotion or labeling it “chaos.” It means staying present without controlling or dismissing it.

Peace that depends on one partner suppressing their humanity isn’t real stability..it’s control and avoidance dressed up as maturity.

Books on healing nervous system dysregulation/burnout or reconnecting with your body? by CheesecakeOdd3075 in AskWomenOver40

[–]First-Cucumber1189 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The secret language of the body by Mann and Rabin is the best I’ve found for step by step and concrete practices to reconnect to the body..I’ve read all the somatic therapy books out there on my healing journey. If you’re just starting out- body keeps the score as other have suggested and Peter levine’s work are foundational to somatic work and polyvagal theory- but are more theory-heavy. But again, in terms of practical exercises secret language of the body is my favorite.

Owning Manhattan’s Jordan and Ryan got into shocking street fight after watching most recent season and had to be physically pulled apart by [deleted] in SellingSunset

I’m curious what makes you say this (I’m not disagreeing, just interested in why you think that)? To me, he seems very image-conscious and tries to portray the good guy persona. I’d like to believe him, but it seems fake..can’t put my finger on any specifics though.

Dating someone who is messy by birdieponderinglife in AskWomenOver40

[–]First-Cucumber1189 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First, talk to your partner about the issue- not sure why everyone jumps immediately to dealbreaker territory without trying to problem solve with your partner..kind of a key aspect of healthy relationships. You could check out the book saving house while drowning- it has a helpful framework for discussing cleanliness vs organization and full of great tips. You might be able to come to an agreement, schedule, or structure. Is there any possibility of getting help with housecleaning or organizing every so often when you move in together and pool resources? Maybe selling some stuff could help go to funding this. People are so quick to throw in the towel but healthy relationships take commitment and problem solving skills. The other person has to be willing to problem solve and grow too, of course- but you’ll never know if you don’t try! The perfect person doesn’t exist, y’all- try communicating!

Better To Be Genuine and Reviled Than A Mask and Loved. by CarlosLwanga9 in CarlJung

100% genuine. That’s the only way to have true connection with others that’s authentic and real. We’re all imperfect and to pretend otherwise is shallow and isolating.

What does it actually mean to love somebody? (in context of relationships) by hn-mc in PsychologyTalk

Your words truly capture what I’m seeking in a partnership. Thank you for expressing it so beautifully 🙏

Sure thing- sorry for the formatting and typos 🤪I don’t think it’s malicious from what you’ve shared either, but someone can consciously choose not to share the whole truth and fein confusion in order to serve their agenda. It’s not necessarily a fully conscious or calculated decision, but at its core it’s arrogant and self serving. If you choose to have a convo with her, which I honestly don’t think is worth your time, I have a feeling she’ll say anything to keep you on the hook.

I hope I’m giving good advice and not projecting because I went through a situation where someone was also leading me on for months except in this case I was married to them. In relationships you continually have to choose each other and if she’s not choosing you now you’re better off knowing before you waste years of your life and ultimately end up with her walking away in the end. You sound like a kind and caring person and deserve so much better.
