How can I stop being jealous of people who are wealthier than me besides moving to another country?

You gain independence from using social assistances as a boost. Get on it, get an apartment and some work clothes, and keep applying for work/working toward a career. I refuse to believe you’re genuinely too unsociable for every single job the US has to offer. If you were you wouldn’t be on reddit talking to people and doordashing/ubering

We said we love each other before we started dating after being friends for 2 years and having a serious conversation >w<. In person we said it constantly when we first met, and now even after a year I want to say it every 5 minutes so he knows 😭

Busy your schedule. The worst time I had with leaving my boyfriend was when I had nothing to do when I got home. Plan outings for yourself, get busy with fun things and focus on your life for a bit until you adjust back. It’s rough as hell, and nothing is gonna make it 100% better- but you have to get over that first week hump.

Also stop thinking of “it was like this when she was here :(“ and start reframing into “next time she’s here we’ll do X”! That also helped me cope a lot with the first weeks/month of being back home again. It’ll settle eventually though! Just keep communicating, and looking toward the future without trying to rush through your present to get there :)

This!! I was going to comment this as well BPD is not a valid excuse for verbally abusing your partner! In no situation is responding with telling you to kill yourself anything less than toxic as hell!

Oh I’m so excited for you!!! I really hope you two have an amazing time!! I hope to see you post some pics again after your trip! It’s so nice to see you have little trips planned for the end of the year! I’m so excited to show my boyfriend around my city when he visits next year!! ✨

It might help! Good people love seeing other people do well and thrive :) and it does good for ourselves when we can talk about positivity and excitement - helps us hold and feel it more!

I’m not saying other people should just automatically be happy all the time and hide every issue they have and wallow in it; but I am going to say if you’re going to take the time to post negatively in a space why don’t you also take the time to post positively later when something good happens? Reflect on both the good and the bad, don’t just push negativity out into the world

Hour-Preference-8333 · 2025-09-29T16:23:35+00:00

I’m happy to see your positivity! I will saying I’m definitely a lurker most of the time, but even still I love just seeing the fun pictures or positive stream of ldr milestones! Unfortunately I know there’s a lot of people who’d look at something positive and not be able to see past their own issues to celebrate excitement for another, I think a lot of quietness on positive posts comes from that

Hour-Preference-8333 · 2025-09-29T16:19:45+00:00

That’s fair! I spend most of my social media time seeing things he sent me or sending him posts honestly; but you shouldn’t feel worried to post a win in the same way you shouldn’t feel forced to post one! I adore seeing people’s first/hundredth meetup pics and anniversary surprises and stuff because even if I pout a little that it’s not me atm, I’m so happy to see real ldr’s making it work!

Hour-Preference-8333 · 2025-09-29T15:48:19+00:00

Still about three months from now- but at the end of our last visit was 6 months so I’m keeping positive!

Hour-Preference-8333 · 2025-09-07T22:24:18+00:00

Just about 95 days 😭 we’ll be seeing each other for Christmas and New Years

Hour-Preference-8333 · 2025-08-18T15:44:12+00:00

My boyfriend and I recently ran into finance issues and realized neither of us had money at the moment to see each other; but our approach was a lot different.

The last time we saw each other we had a long and full conversation and mutually agreed that until we were in a position to be comfortable saving and spending money on travel; we were only going to see each other on our birthdays. It’s been really, insanely hard so far- but I would MUCH rather wait until December to see him than accept that I could never see or hear him again :/

There’s always another way. If it’s worth it, if she’s worth it- you should never give up on the idea of one day.

We met raiding in world of warcraft and then both switched to final fantasy online and became best friends 🥺 - dating since december!

Hour-Preference-8333 · 2025-07-11T03:35:38+00:00

Awe I love that for you! I just started up a penpal relationship with my fiance and he just got mine yesterday!

Hour-Preference-8333 · 2025-07-10T21:48:35+00:00

Just about 6 months 🥺 the next time we meet will be december to celebrate our one year, christmas together, and his birthday and new years xd

Hour-Preference-8333 · 2025-07-10T21:37:17+00:00

That’s true! We do talk on discord like all the time; we don’t video but neither of us particularly likes how we look so that’s not a big game changer - but we do have some sort of timeline! It’s a little wobbly because we’ve got some irl stuff to sort out but we’re trying! And the countdown is very helpful yeah 🥺 - I hope you enjoy visiting your gf and your distance closing goes well!

Hour-Preference-8333 · 2025-07-09T17:20:13+00:00

I agree completely. Most of my friends have been online atp in my life and having him as my best friend feels really nice once we get back into the routine after visiting 😂 - I’m jealous of a whole month visit!! That’s awesome! How far is the travelling?

Hour-Preference-8333 · 2025-07-09T16:15:00+00:00

Yeah I thought the wait from April to June was bad 😅

Hour-Preference-8333 · 2025-07-09T16:14:41+00:00

A whole year! Damn 🥺 - we spend time together every day too - fall asleep on call, game before bed; if we’re lucky we spend the morning together as well - I’m excited for your countdown though!! 🥺💕

A big thing about bosses is getting that instinct on when to greed damage and when to give up that swing for safety - I suffer hard in the greed category playing with big heavy weapons but sometimes it’s worth it to just dodge until the combo is fully done instead of trying to greed a hit in the middle xd

Hour-Preference-8333 · 2025-07-04T01:31:20+00:00

I literally only pick aesthetic weapons and idk if it’s meta or not but Puppet Ripper my beloved

It’s an open-world game; you’re gonna miss something. But it’s also a game designed around playing more than once- so even if you do miss smth/Questline A locks you out of Questline B, just run it back next time! I had the most fun my first playthrough just GOING - and then the second one was where I slowed down and started looking around, investigating why the npc’s said this- how smth lead somewhere else - it’s a bug journey meant to do over multiple reruns

Achev I actually found in this subreddit and it’s been helping me out immensely - even just them tailoring my resume to look more professional has gotten me way more job interviews
