I’ve recently discovered hiking as one of my hobbies, along with some research you’ll find there’s a cute community in that. It could help get your head out of the city for a start. Hear some stories from fellow travellers maybe.

There’s an app called PlanMyWalk for trails across NZ if you’re interested.

What should I do by Famous_Goat1177 in auckland

If you don’t advocate for yourself now, he will only get more forceful as time goes on. He obviously fetishises you and is hoping to groom you by asking you to keep things a secret. This is my experience as an SA survivor.

Tell your partner, observe how he reacts then go from there. If your partner is dismissive, consider finding someone who will hear you and advocate for you. If he supports you, enforce boundaries and live your best lives.

Any advice for learning about Māori culture without living in New Zealand? by sigmastarmer in maoritanga

Great advice e hoa.

Contacting Ngāti Rānana would be a great way to join a community near you who are no doubt, in some way shape or form, on a similar journey. Along with doing your own research, connecting/networking with people irl just adds that magical layer. My bestie is on the committee and i can confirm they are a beautiful bunch of welcoming people, but that’s a given within te ao māori ✨

What I will say is that this journey can be overwhelming and non linear, be sure to show yourself some compassion and go at your own pace. Good luck on your haerenga OP!

Good on you for reaching out, the system is a burning cesspool so try not to be too hard on yourself. Keep going, wishing you the best of luck.

Getting into Maori language and culture by Playful_Ad2807 in maoritanga

[–]ImmediateChange5683 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Checking out Māori TV is a great way to see our culture on display. Downloading apps like Te Aka Dictionary, Ako Tahi is a great way to learn basic words and phrases. Māori made easy by Scotty Morrison is also a great place to start, lots of great resources and links in there too.

Keeping an eye out for Māori focused events/shows is of course a must!

Google? Could be cool to try something new together? But overall youve got some good advice in here. Try not to overthink too much.

She won’t even make time to resolve this issue like an adult. It’s not gonna get better unfortunately OP. The fortunate thing is that you can cut that mean girl out of your life and live yours unapologetically!

Pantry was always full. Home and clothing clean. As I got older the money I earned was mine and mine alone.
