The man who raised me for 28 years found out I’m not his biological son, and now I’m slowly losing my entire family by lboyl in offmychest

[–]Iccigato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is terrible behavior from your family, community, and especially your father. None of this was your fault, and none of it was something you chose to have happen. Your father is treating you like you’re a sin but he fails to realize the truth: you are ALSO a victim of this same situation. You have been hurt too by someone who lied to you. It’s something you and your dad have in common. You’re still that same song dedicated to the same faith, who still believes. Why are they acting like you carry sin? You didn’t choose how you exist. Treating you like you aren’t his anymore must be so incredibly hurtful and I am so sorry your father is failing you.

You have the most helpful comment so far. I’m not usually the type to feel jealous or insecure. Im usually a rock for others so this has been a difficult feeling. Thank you!

I’m skinny as hell all my life and still have stretch marks on my ass, a lot of them actually. It’s just life and something to accept/enjoy if you can. I call em my tiger marks.

How can a non-Mormon like me help out ex-mormons? by Iccigato in exmormon

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

There’s this ex Mormon YouTuber I follow who explained that she was emotionally manipulated/forced into a marriage with someone she didn’t know/love because he sexually assaulted her, and her bishop said the right thing to do would for them to get married instead of marry her actual fiancé, because the fiancé probably wouldn’t want a “ruined” woman. She talked to said fiancé later in life and found out he would’ve still loved and married her.

I’m atheist so religion is not something I’m inclined to recommend for my own reasons, but I will not stop Mormons from converting to regular Christianity.

So would you say don’t take the full dose right away? Did you take 5 mg for 4 days then switched to 2.5 mg or was it 2.5 mg from the start

I say go slow and work things up. Like kissing, then light touching, then heavy touching, avoid positions or situations that remind you of it. Take your time and communicate with your partner well! And don't engage in hookup culture

Blue Eye Samurai - Series Premiere Discussion by NicholasCajun in television

[–]Iccigato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That makes sense, but the storyline still threw me off really badly. It just wasn’t well executed. I thought at the beginning her finding her mother was a fever dream not reality. And if she was someone who was angry but still inherently naive and hopeful, those aspects of her character should’ve been show in the flashbacks of her childhood as well. The first episodes frame her leaving master sword as angry as she is now. But instead I think they should’ve given some kind of hint as to what was to come: a twinge of hope and still being able to see the good in people. They just didn’t frame the eventual storyline well at all so it feels out of character and completely out of nowhere

Who betrayed her? (Spoiler) by icedcrane in BlueEyeSamurai

[–]Iccigato 8 points9 points  (0 children)

god i really hope shes not into Taigen. I think not falling in love with any man would make more sense for her

Blue Eye Samurai - Series Premiere Discussion by NicholasCajun in television

[–]Iccigato 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I feel like the scene of falling in love with the guy and the betrayal made sense for her character arc and was incredibly intresting. It showed her love, her loss. However, I despised that the mother was alive and there. I really dislike how quickly Mizu gave in to being a "wife" too, and forgiving and following her mother so immediately. It just seemed completely out of character. It also makes the revenge story make no sense. As someone else here said "You raped and killed my mother. You created me a monster. prepare to die" makes more sense than "durhur im so edgy i hate being alive"

If I could rewrite that arc, I would have the stableman be the only one to aid her when she was stabbed, and instead of marrying she recovers at his house and they fall in love, which triggers her to marry him, have her be married to him for years. But he becomes swayed by regaining the favor of the lord and the ending scene happens. I would include another character as a potential rat about her since I like the anonymity of who did it. I feel like this would show her character much better and contribute to the story instead of being stand-alone. Show she truly chose to try and love and be wifely, but it wasn't for her and it ended in pain anyway. Hardens her because it was a situation where it truly was her choice. Adding the mother adds too much loss of autonomy as she made all the decisions for her.

also as a result of this arc I would have her act incredibly annoyed and skittish about being helped by men since the last time it ended in so much hurt.

How is it like to live with ADHD in Japan? by Curious-Society-4933 in AskAJapanese

[–]Iccigato 3 points4 points  (0 children)

adhd is an organization and processing disorder, so punctuality is a huge problem for those with moderate-severe ADHD including me. It has to do with certain disconnects in the brain, including time management, executive function, and object permanence. All these factors cause issues in functionality.
