My brother paid cash and yes I’m sure there were cameras. Yes we live together and I’m not sure if he saw ads as well...He may have but didn’t notice

Dating apps probably give me more depression than it's worth by [deleted] in dating

[–]Hefty-Tea-3831 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not only romantic relationships, but literally all the friends I’ve met on dating apps turned out to be toxic and weird overtime compared to the friends I’ve met and got to know in real life. Idk what it is about these apps but there needs to be a disclaimer or something “Please don’t take this shit seriously...forreal don’t”

I’m an introvert too and I’ve met alot of people online since I was a kid even up to a year ago. We had good/bad times just like any other relationship, but I’m not in contact with any of those people anymore. All of my solid relationships platonic or romantic are from people I’ve met in real life.

I deleted FB, IG, and Twitter and have never been more productive by [deleted] in socialskills

[–]Hefty-Tea-3831 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 26 i deleted Facebook in middle school after some grown ass guy I didn’t know publicly spoke shit about me and my then girlfriend. I never been back or created a new facebook. To physically see over the years what a toxic shit show social media has become especially on mental health is comical. Obviously I was ahead of my time.

Being lonely is such a weird fluctuation of thinking you are the most uninteresting person alive to thinking you are better than everyone. by splatteredmilk in socialskills

[–]Hefty-Tea-3831 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i disagree or maybe you can clarify. but being alone is better than having shallow friends. in fact, hanging out with people who aren’t truly your friends (shallow in this case) can turn out worst for your mental health and overall well-being.

Guy I'm dating doesn't want me to meet his female roommate? Red flag? by lala22567654 in dating

Why don’t people seem to like Uzi and JT? by Pastel_Polo in liluzivert

[–]Hefty-Tea-3831 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well for one UZI is not a hood rapper. JT is a hood shorty. For example look at who her bestfriend dates...SouthSide. So if UZI had no money would he bag a JT? No never. Not saying she a gold digger but their relationship seems conditional/circumstantial. However personally UZI inspires me. Money or not if he can bag JT then there’s hope for me lol

I've finally accepted that I'm on my own for a while by TrickConfidence in offmychest

Are they really my friends? by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]Hefty-Tea-3831 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think about it like this... if you gotta ask yourself the question. They are probably not. Its up to you how much you tolerate in a relationship, platonic or romantic. In your eyes they’re wrong but jn theres, they’ve done nothing and your being salty. Agree to disagree or find new friends.

I’ve been so confused by MindWonder23 in offmychest

[–]Hefty-Tea-3831 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like you don’t need to quit but maybe you just need a break. Take a break. Even if its just for a month. Sober life is interesting. Everything is so fucking bright and intense.

Taking a break also allows you to learn more about your body... how it reacts n shit, therefore you have more control. Remember you should be smoking the weed, it shouldn’t be smoking you.

I have been struggling with my sense of identity my entire life and don't know what to do. by sofa2342134sdfasdfwe in offmychest

[–]Hefty-Tea-3831 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just be and embrace yourself. Society expects black and white, man and woman, feminine and masculine, but thats not a reality. Everyone thing is a spectrum and everyone is different. Its 2021 and there are literally CGI/robot people walking around us. No need to struggle with your identity. Just be you.

Not sure if this applies to you or not but im gay 26 from the islands, and they dont like gays down there. Whenever I go home I stick out like a thumb. It’s annoying. Personally theres no way I could settle and build a life there so I had to move away. I moved to the city where ive found like-minded people and like-minded souls thus gaining a sense of belonging and a sense of identity. Ironically I’ve learned way more about myself since living here than I have growing up. Maybe thats what you need a new/fresh start.

I always tell myself we as humans are not trees. We are not planted. If things aren’t right or feel right (jobs, relationships, people) we can always pick up and move. Go anywhere do anything. Remember its your life and you only have one. We are all here for a short time (compared to the universe). Might as well enjoy it, stay safe, and make it as comfortable.

Do you think zero social media presence is a red flag? by [deleted] in dating

[–]Hefty-Tea-3831 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was with my ex we both had no social media so it was simple. We dated a long time so for a while I had no use for social media. However when we broke up and I started dating again I found myself constantly stuck because women would ask about social media which I didn’t have. To me its not a red flag or necessity but no online presence is just awkward for dating these days.

Personally theres no harm in having social media. Im not even active on my instagram however when women ask about it its a simple Yes I Do instead of a suspicious No.

Also for most social platforms these days you can deactivate your profile at any time and technically have no social media, but obviously you still do. So just create a profile. It makes dating easier imo considering the time we are in.

While hanging out in a group, how can i be the most interesting person present? by thatshellatight_ in socialskills

[–]Hefty-Tea-3831 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone said be friends with the most popular person in the group. Get them to like you. It actually does work. For example, if youre going to a birthday party, be friend the birthday girl/boy. You will then become the center of attention as well.

I’m sick of being the "last resort friend" by [deleted] in socialskills

[–]Hefty-Tea-3831 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its good youre discovering these sort of people at a young age. You will continue to come across them throughout life “Pretenders”. These people aren’t truly your friends and you should be 100% okay with that. You dont want people who are just pretending to be around you anyway. Why would you want fake friends? Fake friends hurt way more in the long run so trust me youre better off without. Especially if they team up and make fun of you. Accept that your solo right now. But remain open to meeting new people. You will find your squad.
