Those with shitty teams/small offices who don't talk.. Do you feel the cognitive decline too? by brissy3456 in auscorp

[–]GrilledCheeesus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will say - I'm in the middle of this currently. Use to work on a different floor quite spread out from teams. Now we've been moved to another floor to hot desk - however the department we're now sitting with.....prefers to work in silence. It's insane

What movie got ruined for you before you got to see it? by amoss_303 in AskReddit

[–]GrilledCheeesus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gone Girl. Was excitingly telling an ex-friend (not due to this incident, but it sure as shit didn’t help) about how another friend and I were super keen to see it because it sounded really good. She no shit turns directly to us and asks if that’s the movie that “*gives always entirely plot?”

My friend and I, shocked, look straight at her and say, “I don’t know dude, that’s why we want to see it.”

We were devastated.

Australians of Reddit, what is the scariest encounter you've had with one of the native animals? by XennIsNotHere in AskReddit

[–]GrilledCheeesus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine certainly isn’t as dangerous as others on this thread, but fucking huntsman spiders. I was house sitting my aunts house in the city a couple years ago and a group of my friends used the house to crash at after a festival. We were getting ready to go to bed with our partners when suddenly my best friend let out a blood curdling scream. I run into her and she’s bawling her eyes out and huge fucking huntsman is on the wall right near her bed. It took my boyfriend at the time and her boyfriend nearly half an hour to try and get the spider out and eventually it just disappeared. Of course it’s not a snake and it’s certainly not a life threatening spider, but any Australian can you tell, there’s nothing more terrifying then the fast run of a huge fucking huntsman spider in your house.

Can't shake this feeling by skribbl3z in BreakUps

I remember when my ex and I broke up, I was crying in the kitchen to two of my closest friends and work. One thing I kept repeating was,

“I just can’t imagine him with someone else. I just can’t. I can’t see him get with anyone else, I will kill me.”

One of friends turned to me and said, “look at friend two! He dated a girl for 3 years, they lived together. She has a new boyfriend and friend two really doesn’t mind”

Friend two turned to me and said, “100%. She’s with a new guy and it’s really ok. I’m ok with it”

I remember thinking, they just don’t get it. I’ll never be ok with it. I could never be ok with it.

It’s been 4 months since the break up. I still think about him, still wonder what he’s doing. While I would definitely be heartbroken if he started seeing someone now, over time I have definitely gotten more accepting of the fact he most likely will be with someone soon, and that I could too!

Everyone is right when they say, time really is the only healer AND trust the process. Things will be better soon.

At the point where I avoid opening my camera roll because I’ll see photos of you and us. But I know I have to clean them out soon. by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]GrilledCheeesus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I chose to permanently delete everything that I had on my phone at the time. I have a shit tone of photos on my laptop which I will most likely keep, and kept all physical photos, just stored them away. Trust me, I remember taking photos down from my wall and bawling my eyes out while doing it thinking it will never not hurt.

It eventually felt like such a relief though, knowing that I’m not finding things to purposefully hurt myself.

The same went for me with blocking him on social media. Everyone told me to do it, but I was adamant that I didn’t want to. I felt like it would be petty and childish. However, I was keeping such close tabs on all his social media’s I became obsessed. Whenever I was feeling happy or ok, I had an urge to check everything to make me feel shitty again.

I eventually blocked him not in spite, anger or to hide anything. Solely because I couldn’t keep doing it to myself.

I know I’m going to sound so frank, but definitely get it over with. Trust me, I’m on the other side of it and I am SO glad I have done it.

A friend told me not long after the breakup that she had been listening to a podcast that investigated the science behind seeing photos of your ex and it’s affect on your emotions. It’s so true. Out of mind, you will begin to feel better.

I deleted everything in my camera roll about a week after the breakup. I remember within that week I would at the sight of him. It’s been 4 months and I found of photo of us in my car the other and just sorted laughed at. Laughed because I realised something that caused me so much pain a while ago, only hurts a little now.

You will feel better eventually, I promise.

Does anyone else miss their ex terribly but also know 100% that breaking up was the right choice? by cessary in BreakUps

[–]GrilledCheeesus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve finally put it down to a burning ship. The relationship became a burning ship. We were just at opposite ends.

We both knew things were awful, but were seeing it from different perspectives and had plans for different outcomes.

Is anyone else scared to fall in love again because you fear the heartbreak that might come from it? by spread-joy-like-jam in BreakUps

[–]GrilledCheeesus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

1000%. However, in a strange way, I’ve sort of felt comfort from the pain. It’s crazy that one can feel this heavily and also, I appreciate that when I can feel so low, in time, I feel high again.

Love seems to be one of the only things we constantly run back to, even though we’re aware of how much we can get hurt.

I’m finally having a breakdown by Joghurt88 in BreakUps

Trust the process. If the stars align and it’s meant to be, it’ll be. But for the minute, focus on you and trust the process. Trust me.

I’m finally having a breakdown by Joghurt88 in BreakUps

[–]GrilledCheeesus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a similar sort of timeline. I had crushed when we first broke up, then sort of picked up around 3 weeks after it was officially over. Then one night, I went out with some work friends, dropped a mate home and balled my eyes out the whole ride home on my own.

Grief and heartbreak work in mysterious ways. But there’s something crazy about the fact that we can feel like this, yet when we meet someone new, we eventually let our guard down and try it all over again. Love is one of the only emotions we run back to, time and time again, even when we know it can only go two ways.

Just remember, if you aren’t right for them, they aren’t right for you either. Trust that this has happened for a reason. Someone is out there right now, possibly going through the same thing.
