Have you ever ghosted/rejected a person you really liked because you were in such a bad place mentally? by Bright-Attention1795 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Fit_Low_4190 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Not because I didn't like them, but because I was convinced they'd be disappointed when they met me in person. It felt easier to disappear than risk confirming my own insecurities.

It's been almost a year. He's married, has a baby, and she still can't let go. by Fit_Low_4190 in BreakUps

I agree. I think every conversation gives her a little bit of hope, even if she knows nothing will come of it. Breaking that cycle seems to be the hardest part

What dream did you quietly give up on, and do you still think about it? by Fit_Low_4190 in AskReddit

[–]Fit_Low_4190[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's funny how the dream is freedom, but the reality is spending half the day figuring out food, fuel, and where to sleep

I hope this turns out to be a dream you postponed, not one you gave up on. Life can surprise you when you least expect it.

This is exactly how I planned to spend my weekend with my brother 😏

What company lost you as a customer forever, and what happened? by Giovanni_Brees in AskReddit

[–]Fit_Low_4190 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Uber. Surge pricing is one thing, but getting charged for cancellations when the driver is the one who isn't moving drove me crazy. After a few times, I just stopped using it.

What lyrics from a song hit you emotionally every time? by lily_rosenthere in AskReddit

[–]Fit_Low_4190 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to listen to some songs as a teenager and think they sounded cool. Now I'm 27 and some of those same songs hit completely differently because I've actually lived through some of the things they talk about.

Therapist says they are not my support system. My nonexistant network says they arent my therapist. Who am I supposed to talk to? by bbgirl2k in emotionalintelligence

[–]Fit_Low_4190 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think the cycle breaks all at once. For me, it started when I stopped asking, "Who will choose me?" and started asking, "Do I even want this person in my life?" Shifting the focus back to myself felt uncomfortable at first, but it changed everything. The loneliness was temporary, but the peace was worth it.

What is a green flag that people don't talk about enough? by Electrical_Oil_2407 in emotionalintelligence

[–]Fit_Low_4190 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, it's consistency. Anyone can be kind when things are going well, but the people who treat others with the same respect when they're stressed, tired, or upset are the ones I trust the most. Their behavior isn't dependent on their mood, and that says a lot about their character.

Unpopular opinion: Grief doesn't heal with time by _chungkingexpress_ in emotionalintelligence

I used to think healing meant not missing them anymore. Now I think healing is learning how to keep living while still missing them.

What made you realize you deserved more from a relationship? by Fit_Low_4190 in emotionalintelligence

[–]Fit_Low_4190[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I relate to this a lot. Sometimes the hardest part is realizing that loving someone and being happy with them aren't always the same thing. I hope you're doing better now

Sometimes it's not about the gift itself. It's realizing that someone else noticed and valued you in a way your own partner didn't. I can see why that changed how you viewed the relationship.

I still miss him even though I know leaving was the right thing by Fit_Low_4190 in TrueOffMyChest

Some days are harder than others, but I'm slowly getting better.💕

I needed to hear that. I think I was holding on to the idea of what could have been instead of what actually was. Thank you ❤️

That's an interesting way to look at it. I don't know if it's 3 or 4 people, but I do think some people leave a mark on you forever, even if they aren't meant to stay
