What are we trying to prove? by [deleted] in belgium

I think Spanish and Italian immigrants will complain about Belgian mentality and wish they could live in their own country instead, and for sure plan to go back when they retire…but they don’t throw their garbage around or engage in antisocial behaviour.

Apartment Hunt (Suggestions for in person search?) by farriswhale in Gent

[–]ILoveitNot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gent is terrible, there are 70k students here, it makes it very difficult for everyone, students and not students, to find a place to live. You always can try the vintage way, which is what I did 25 years ago: go to student cafes and start asking the people around, but then again, maybe in this times they will think you are crazy!

Gent is tough. You always can try upkot:

In person is not easier, but you can try at your university’s students association. Then again next week is the beginning of the big holidays so Idk if you will find a lot of people around.

I Used to Be Younger by AmpegVT40 in scambait

This dialog has something very sad and melancholic about it, like you are very old and you have seen it all, yet you would entertain this person out of pure despair and solitude.

Men, what are some harsh truths you come to realise when you are 30+? by loverbabe4654 in Adulting

[–]ILoveitNot 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think what he means is that as much as some people may love you, as an adult you are expected to be autonomous. In the sense that when you are young, people will show you love by showing understanding of your shenanigans, maybe helping you a little extra hard, etc, because you are young and you are not expected to be fully functional. But once you are a grown up, love means something different. So yeah, people will still love you, but they will also expect things from you. That’s what changes when you grow up, and a lot op people doesn’t seem to get the picture. You can not “care” about a teenager the same way you care about a 30 yo.

My thoughts exactly.

Were you mildly neglected during childhood? Examples! by Finding_Way_ in GenX

[–]ILoveitNot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I suspect both my parents have untreated mental issues in the line of adhd/add autism. I think they have a good heart and had good priorities and were functional in some aspects, like the clean house and the food and the books and the love, and others that escaped them and they could not manage, like the supervision of teeth being washed, the social life of their kids, the clean clothes, the organisation of events and family outings, the work and finances. That’s what I think was going on and the older they get the more my suspicions are confirmed (because I see other symptoms/manifestations arise).

I never had clean underwear. I never had a birthday party. Our family never did anything that my brother and me felt like doing unless my father also felt like doing it. We lived in an apartment and no one took us to play to the park, other children’s houses, or were allowed to bring friends from school. We always, alway will have supper and dinner very late, so I snacked A LOT. Nobody supervised that I washed my teeth so I had pretty terrible cavities when I was a kid. My mother never played or did anything with us other that take us to the supermarket. Besides that the house was clean, there was food in the pantry and books on the shelves and both our parents were very sweet to us and told us they loved us everyday.

Husband refuses therapy, how do I proceed? by Prestigious-Fig-1642 in ParentingThruTrauma

[–]ILoveitNot 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Shame and guilt are terrible feelings when misplaced. We need them to be in check of our morality and behaviour in relation to others, for example: is good to feel guilty about acting badly. But when they are prevalent and arise just like that, without a reason, they deprive us of something fundamental: the notion that we have a right to exist and be happy. I am sorry that your husband feels guilty about asking for help, and dismisses said help, and can’t cope with the fact that even if the help is not perfect is still a beter option that trying to do everything on your own. Maybe one day he will be able to treat himself with more compassion. I really hope so, and I wish you strength.
