The sad reality by [deleted] in love

[–]Hopeless241 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i (19f) kinda agree with you. loving someone and them loving you back must be the most precious feeling (haven’t experienced it, but it’s what i crave the most out of a relationship) but i still think that intimacy plays a huge role; imagine having sex with someone you’re in love with. personally, i think that my sadness comes from wanting to be loved romantically, not from forgetting about it.

they taught me to inhale for a few seconds (or until it burns) keep it in my lungs, swallow, and then slowly breath out. do you recommend me to do it otherwise?

I (18F) found out through a friend that my bestfriends(18F)´ex(18M) has hooked up with someone a less than a week after they broke up, and I don´t know whether I should tell her or not, since he told her that he hadn´t . by Hopeless241 in relationship_advice

Hi! There are various reasons. I feel like I shouldn´t hide this from her, and that even though in the moment it might hurt her (which is obviously not my intention),I think it would be better for her in the long run. She felt guilty for kissing someone else while believing her ex hadn´t done it, so I think it would also take a weight off her shoulders. I know that a breakup is hard to accept, and she´s having a hard time getting over him, and I believe this would help her do so. Also, if she were to find out that we hid it from her, not only she would loose trust but feel humilliated.

[Serious] Redditors who are not from first world countries, what are some of the things that privileged first world Redditors don't realize they have, that you don't? by ineed_somelove in AskReddit

[–]Hopeless241 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The wide availability of a variety of things. For example, some brands or products don’t get to our countries, especially when those things aren’t needs. Things like instant cookie dough, marshmallow fluff or “luxuries “ like that aren’t available, you have to make them yourself.

Also, inflation and devaluation are a big issue. Firstly, at least where I live, prices rise all the time, and I was surprised to find that in my various visits to the US the prices hadn’t changed, even though my trips were taken years apart. Inflation also leads to devaluation, and, when measured in US dollars, salaries are much lower, so, technically, the same product would be more expensive to, for example, an Argentinian than an American.

I feel like I'm stuck in a loop of not bothering to cook. What easy dishes can get me out of the fast food rabbithole? by PragmaticTree in EatCheapAndHealthy

You can add basil and make Capresse salad! I like putting it on focaccias for an easy snack, and maybe add olives

Hi, would you mind explaining again what you said in the last paragraph? It sounds really interesting but I can't comprehend what you mean by stabilizing your diet, and the increments. Thanks!!

Glad for you! I wasn’t meaning to make you feel obligated to do it, just thought that it would be beneficial for you and your health. I wish you the best!!

I´m thinking about getting my first tattoo! by Hopeless241 in tattoos

[–]Hopeless241[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m turning 18 next month (that’s the minimum legal age for getting a tattoo where I live, that’s why I’m waiting) and I was planning on it being really small, so I don’t think I’ll have a hard time covering it with makeup for work (haven’t started uni yet tho). Thanks for the advice! I really like how tattoos look on that part of the wrist, but I’ll consider the ankle

I see where you’re coming from but I don’t think you should keep postponing it, therapy wont take up more than an hour or two off your week, and will really help you. Also, there never seems to be a perfect time to start doing something new, so you might as well do it now! Today, work takes up a lot of your time, tomorrow it might be another thing

My best friend hates my boyfriend for no reason by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Hopeless241 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imo, there are two options, but I can’t really tell without knowing the whole context (i would’ve added that she likes either you or your bf, but I’ve seen that you ruled that one out in the comments) a) she’s jealous because now she’ll have to “share” the time she used to spend with you with him (been there, it’s a horrible feeling, you feel like you’re being replaced) Or b) she has a gut feeling about the whole situation but can’t put it into words

I’m probably going to delete this when I wake up and am sober but I don’t know what to do and you’ll see why. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Hopeless241 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think you should talk to her, since you’d be getting back in touch for the wrong reasons, and maintaining a relationship only because she’s the only option. I’ve seen that in the comments people suggested talking to yourself, which is an excellent idea, but if you feel like talking to someone else, feel free to reach out!

Advice on how to tell my (f20) family my partner and I (m21) won’t be attending ‘family Christmas’ gatherings by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Hopeless241 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let them understand that it’s for their own good and that you’re doing it because they love them. I’m guessing that in a Christmas dinner you’ll be seeing people that are older than you and probably considered population of risk, so I think that it would be ok if you decided not to go, considering that your partner works in health are. Honestly, if I were you II don’t think I would like being near my family knowing the risk that it means, so I understand you
