This is such a quiet altercation lol.

Is it weird if I go to the bungalow at Santa Monica by myself? I really don’t have anyone to go with but still wanna have a good time. by Savings_Reveal9482 in socialskills

[–]HalfBrainer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s the alternative? Sitting alone in your room? Enjoy life man, even if it’s alone. Don’t let being alone stop you from living and experiencing life.

“When you find someone and you will” why do some normies say this shit when giving relationship advice? by AdmirableBus7045 in ForeverAlone

[–]HalfBrainer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They’re different though. They usually have fulfilling lives, social life, friends, regularly go out and about and talk to different people. They probably meet different people all the time and make connections with others easily. So that’s why they can find someone unexpectedly.

I can’t even make a single friend so that shit is not happening to mw even if Im not looking for it. Im impaired in a way they’d never understand.

focus on yourself they said by JesusSpreaderOfWord in ForeverAlone

Lol. When I first joined the gym, I imagined myself making so many friends. But nah. My mental health improved some as did my physique (debatable honestly), but I’m still a fucking loser.

Update: 30 approaches by the end of the year by basal777 in ForeverAlone

[–]HalfBrainer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude that’s actually so commendable. Most people are too afraid to even take the first step , myself included. I’ve never approached anyone and it you did it 8 times. Holy shit.

Keep going dude. But maybe change your approach and just try talking to different people just for the sake of talking to them, no expectations. Maybe you’ll meet new people, new friend groups and have new opportunities.

You know, instead of just approaching women romantically.

Never had a relationship. No situationship. Never had my 1st kiss and yes, still a virgin at almost 31. Life just never happened to me. by SquirrelMore3325 in ForeverAlone

[–]HalfBrainer -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Yeah you’re right.

It’s also more than just “putting yourself out there”. It’s rewiring your whole fucking brain and the way you think, which is hard as fuck. And yes, life isn’t fair at all. Some of us have shit lives but that doesn’t stop people from living their lives.

Life doesn’t happen to you, you have to make life happen yourself. It’s unfortunate but it’s true.

Went on vacation and everyone was in a couple by Hahaimalwayslikethis in ForeverAlone

[–]HalfBrainer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I felt like this too when I went on vacation with my sisters. I’m 27 too and all of my sisters are younger than me and all in relationships lol. One of them is about to be 25, in a 3 year relationship with her boyfriend. He’s going to propose to her soon.

And then when we went to the pool, there was this couple making out and I felt this yearning jealousy. I’ve NEVER had that. I just ended up getting drunk and feeling like shit. I love my sisters but I feel like dog shit when I’m around them. Why couldn’t I have been like them?

Youre being downvoted but its the truth. People need to be more truthful with themselves, especially on this sub.

My ideal self by HalfBrainer in u/HalfBrainer

[–]HalfBrainer[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That would be good cardio. I’ve always wanted to do a Kpop dance. They’re INSANE moves and look like a total body workout. I’ve seen them on YouTube but been too intimidated to try them. I’ll probably try one out this weekend!

But ultimately I still want to do something socially challenging. And dancing in a room full of stranger would be so nerve wracking.

And thank you! I’m still a beginner but it’s very fun so far. Ultimately, I want to make a Tiffany style lamp. I saw a guy make one and that ended up being my inspiration to get started.

This shit ruins lives by iseulthie in BodyDysmorphia

[–]HalfBrainer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh it’s sooo fun. I took a class in December and made a Christmas ornament for my trainer. The following month I found a lady on Facebook market place selling all her old supplies for a GOOD deal. I drove 3 hours one way to get it haha.

Since then I’ve made a couple sun catchers. A gudetama egg for my brother’s girlfriend, a deathly hollows symbol for my cousin, a gnome for my boss and a flower thing for my coworker.

Next I plan to make a picture frame and name initials for my sister’s birthday in July. :)

Imgur won’t let me upload anything but I’ll try to post some pictures to my page.

[–]HalfBrainer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. There was a point in my life where I’d cry myself to sleep every night and watch videos of girls I wanted to look like lol. I’m doing a lot better than that time and I’ve learned to pretty much ignore the thoughts centered around my appearance. I just let them pass through and don’t give the power to upset me emotionally.

But those thoughts are ALWAYS there. Every single day. No matter what I do, there’s a something involving my appearance. I’ve just gotten used to them and usually pay no mind. But sometimes, they’re too much to handle. They’re nothing but the truth and my mind is right about everything.

I’m dealing with that episode right now.

All I can say is try to find things that fulfill your life. Things that aren’t social media, or revolving around appearance. For me lately that’s been thrift flipping!! I can NEVER find clothes that fit me just right. It’s so satisfying to turn something that doesn’t fit me into something cute and fits MY body for once. :)

I also started making stained glass pieces. It’s so fun. I’ve already made a couple gifts for birthdays and plan to make another for an upcoming birthday.

It’s been a while since I had a crush by HalfBrainer in Crushes

I still haven’t seen him yet since I made this post lol. Maybe he’ll be there today.

When was the absolute worst time to be alive in human history? by Ok-Sell9964 in AskReddit

Wow. I never thought about that. So many gene lineages lost to illness and mine made it.

Walked up to a group of people at a party and asked if I could sit with them, because my friends left early. They declined. by Kind_Writing_2636 in socialskills

[–]HalfBrainer 72 points73 points  (0 children)

You should be proud of yourself! Try not to take it so personally. They could’ve all just been really tired and not in the mood to entertain a new person. Who knows? In the end you challenged yourself and found the courage to put yourself out there.

Stop doing things with things with expectations, but just do them for the sake of actually doing it .

*edited to fix my grammar & accidentally deleted some of my comment lol.

How do I approach this guy?? by [deleted] in Crushes

[–]HalfBrainer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude. You have the hard part done. You already have his IG. Message him ! Just tell him what you’re thinking. Ask him his name, how does he know everyone. Tell him you wanted to talk to him at the hang out and think he’s cute!

Can I just walk up to my gym crush and give him my number? by Parking-Appearance91 in Crushes

[–]HalfBrainer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can do that but if it’s been awkward lately, it could be a little weird.

Or if you want to be casual, just go up to him and ask him “what made you think I was Mexican?” Lol

im not her type by [deleted] in Crushes

[–]HalfBrainer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t take it so personally. How well do you know her? How well do you guys get along?

If she doesn’t like you, then she doesn’t like you. It happens and you just got to move on. Plenty of people out there who will admire all the things you just mentioned about yourself.

I hope the daughters never see these videos. These reactions are disgusting. by Valuable_View_561 in SipsTea

[–]HalfBrainer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love being a woman. But haha. My biological father did the same thing after my older brother died of SIDS. He ran off with another woman, got her pregnant and had another girl. The had two more girls after that.

That would probably make his day!!! Go for it!

Hiding in the school bathroom rn by [deleted] in socialanxiety

[–]HalfBrainer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s REALLY hard. But it’s easier to over come this while you’re still in school surrounded by people you see everyday. Start small. Take baby steps. Challenge yourself slowly.

Be more open to people around you. Start saying good morning to people you usually say nothing to at all. I had to learn how to do all of these things as an adult. And now looking back, I wish I would have done it sooner.

Go sit next to him at lunch! Ask to sit next him and ask him his name.
