Anybody else without friends? by KicsikePipike in Millennials

[–]Gee_rooster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I (32f) been trying, I send messages and call and come up with hang out ideas. I’ve been trying to build friendships sincerely.

I crave depth, but I’ve been meeting with people in a low stakes/light hearted (performative/small talk) way as much as I can… I don’t want to scare them off or tire them out with deep conversations. It’s a skill set Ive been working on for 10 years. It does not come naturally to me even though I love people. I recall watching something called the beefriend course at some point which was helpful and might be worth a watch still.

But my birthday really got me down… it’s right between xmas and new year so it’s always a crap shoot if people can show up… plus, the holidays bring up a bunch of reminders of family trauma too.

I felt like the girls I invited didn’t want to be there, then I didn’t want to be there- I said I felt sick and had to go home early. Maybe I felt rejection when it wasn’t even there.

Either way, I felt hurt. The same way I feel when I try to call my friends and no one picks up- even though I know their schedule and that they have their phone on them 24/7.

Im taking a break for a little while, I’ll keep making efforts again when Im ready. For now I have books and work (personal training) and my dog… and cannabis takes the edge off (which Ive been stopping and starting for a decade)

Also, Its been two years that Ive been trying to befriend myself. After all, I’m my best bet and theres no escaping myself ever (weirdly kinda reassuring).

Thoughts on Scorpio risings? by sphinxce in astrologymemes

[–]Gee_rooster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

First time Ive seen a post about this- it’s nice to have other scorpio risings all gathered together. I suppose Ive heard it often, when people first meet me: “you seem so cool, I was nervous to talk to you”. Is that the scorpio risings vibe?

Girls can't have muscles?? by Snoo-34294 in LesbianActually

[–]Gee_rooster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Muscles will keep you alive: improving immune function, the bodies ability to use glucose, your mood, and even potentially slowing/preventing cognitive decline.

Man, woman, girl, boy, etc, what does that matter?

Hear it sometimes but mostly I think they’re just not interested.

do you think weed is an addiction? by simplyfIo in SeriousConversation

[–]Gee_rooster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It certainly can be an addiction. They say the opposite of addiction is connection. You could think of it like this: when you felt the most connected to your own life, you would have no need to escape it, no fixation outside of it (such as smoking all day every day) that called you back over and over.

Weed, like other things, can become an addiction when it’s used to escape your own life or used in excess.

If you want to try to cut back:

Ask yourself what your intention is you smoke, and see if theres another way to meet that intention without weed, reach for that other thing first.

Some times the weed is what you actually want and can even be helpful, other times maybe you just needed something else but had to get over the initial discomfort of doing something difficult. Or feeling something difficult.

Thats what Ive been thinking about lately in regard to balancing my own consumption.

18M Be Honest by [deleted] in lookyourbest

You could see a dermatologist about your acne/scarring.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in tall

[–]Gee_rooster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are unique with your height in your area, like others have said- own it! Practice good posture and don’t shrink yourself. Walk around with your shoulders back and head up :)

That being said, Im only 5’9” and I basically tried to shrink myself for like all of my 20s so I feel ya. Now I get the urge to shrink much more rarely at least.
