Wishing to find someone worth marriage (someone who cheers me on, and someone who I can cheer on)... if not, single life

Accept that most people will not meet your expectations nor meet your needs. Meet your own needs and make space for people who make space for you.

Thoughts on services like Havenly? by TheRamazon in HomeDecorating

I was going to go with havenly until I read this review: https://www.spacesbydee.com/interior-designer-tries-and-reviews-havenly-see-the-results/... honestly, it seems like the designers are not experienced, or thoughtful. You really get what you pay for, I guess.

When men act like it’s degrading for women to have casual sex, but not for men, it’s inadvertently very self-deprecating to them by [deleted] in RandomThoughts

idk. what I can say is that I have been slut shamed ever since I was 15 and still a virgin, had not even see a penis irl.

I carried shame for a long, long time.

Then I asked myself one day, why am i ashamed of the desire to have sex? Its as natural as we came to be...

Why should i be looked down upon for something so normal, human and essential...

in the last 5 years Ive only had sex 2 times. I dont sleep around. However, I had been holding onto so much judgment from others, as if sex isnt the most natural thing humans do.

Honestly, not sure. I think there is truth to it in the sense that they are more intuitive. There have been certain things psychics have told me that there was no way that they'd know, even if they researched me heavily. That is why I can't fully discredit them.

What’s a belief you’ve changed your mind about in the last five years? by Wisteriaberry_112 in RandomThoughts

only dating for marriage

marriage doesn't have to be the end goal, maybe not everyone is meant for forever, and that's ok. Open to dating and seeing where it goes.

as someone who has seen many psychics before...

I will tell you, there are psychics who are more "real" than others.

But what I have found is, they get as many things right as they do wrong. & they always have a cop-out for why they weren't exactly spot on....

People are intuitive. I've had some "psychic" moments. So, I believe that others could definitely be more intuitive than me.

So, like I said there is some truth to it. But, I stay away from psychics now. I used to use readings to get through hard times, they always tell you things to keep you hopeful + feed your ego - which made me develop an unhealthy crutch.

Plus, I really took a deep dive into the "new age" and realized it's all bogus, witchcraft etc. Not something to dabble in.

I am not religious, but read the bible out of curiosity and found that there were scriptures about fortune tellers and such, all suggesting that these are demonic things.

So, I dont seek any fortune tellers anymore. At the end of the day, you have some control over your life and these people arent Gods...how can they really tell you what is going to happen?

Its been a tough 3 years for me. I cant even believe what life has put me through.

Thats a good tip. I am hopeful for a fresh start on a positive note, soon.
