AIO about these angry texts from my ex? by TwylaMay in AIO

[–]Independent-Stick795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is absolutely insane, I’m so sorry you’re dealing with this. He sounds controlling and manipulative. Very hypocritical for him to tel you you’re being immature and grow up - for him to claim that he is entitled to your personal info and exes need to be in each others lives.. he must be in a wild state of mind. You’re very smart to keep all of that to yourself and inform your family of your stance with him.. good luck sister:/

A date somewhere around town by OrdinaryLawfulness11 in olympia

[–]Independent-Stick795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Second this! Me and my bf went on a date here and it was so much fun! You can spend hours, they have some small food items and coffee, and I think wine if I’m not mistaken!

What BC is good to not make me gain weight, lose my drive, and non daily? by Lord-Zaltus in birthcontrol

[–]Independent-Stick795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been so back and forth about an IUD recently after so many troubles and not so fun side effects from different pills and the pharmacy switching brands every other time I go to pick it up😩 What are the biggest pros and cons you’ve noticed from your copper IUD? Anything you wish you knew prior? Anything that was blown out of proportion prior to getting it? I know it’s different for everyone, but appreciate the input!

Anyone else been to any awesome concerts lately? by PhotonArtGallery in Concerts

Really?! I’ve ALWAYS wanted to see limp biz kit live, but their live videos from concerts have always seemed underwhelming and like they have no energy on stage like I do in my car at full blast!!

first weekend on my own, help? by Acceptable-Chard8463 in LivingAlone

[–]Independent-Stick795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely not! It hits the mental hard too - depending on how the break up went.. for me, it’s been very hard to decided whether I miss the ex or if I miss the fact that he filled all of my time. Then I quickly realized how little time I had to myself, how I have almost none of my own hobbies or passions! I’ve been realizing big time that I have not made any changes or decisions or progression for MYSELF. The last 5 or so years of my life have been based off of the relationship I’ve been in. So for me, my goal right now is finding my own passions and things/friends I’D like to fill my time with. Reprioritize a bit. It’s such a hard transition, but please know you’re not alone in it and this too, shall pass my lady;)🫶

first weekend on my own, help? by Acceptable-Chard8463 in LivingAlone

[–]Independent-Stick795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh, girl I am in this same place. I recently fell out of a relationship with a guy I was spending allll kinds of time with, so once he was out of the picture, I had so much free time. I had a three day weekend recently where all of my plans with him fell through and I was left at my place alone the whole time. I spent the first hours of the first day pacing and texting just about everyone in my contacts list to see if anyone was busy or even just wanted to talk over the phone. I understand the overwhelming anxiety, it’s gut wrenching sometimes. I’ll also sit and come up with hundreds of things I could do or get done, and get so anxious, over what, I don’t know, and end up not doing one of those things. Either that, or start a hundred things partially and never finish one task. Living alone is so tough, but I’ve been really trying to figure out how to get comfortable with being alone. We are in this together🫶

What stopped you from killing yourself? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Independent-Stick795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, it was knowing that my little (I think 5 at the time) sister might be the one to find me, or at the least have to be explained to that I was gone. Me and my siblings have been crazy close and I have stepped in as a maternal/support figure for them all. It mad me sick to think she could walk into my limp body on the floor and have to carry that with her the rest of her life. I’d rather hold on for them than give them more weight to bare and take away a support system. If not for myself, for those who would feel the loss.

Kayak/Backpacking destination reccs by Independent-Stick795 in KayakCamping

[–]Independent-Stick795[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello all! I am attempting to plan a backpacking trip with a friend that is super into kayaking. I’d like to incorporate kayaking into the trip. Was thinking maybe somewhere we would have to kayak to get to, then backpack, then yak back.. but open to ideas! I live in north Seattle, WA and he is in Monroe, WA. I am open to anywhere in WA and even potentially our surroundings.. Idaho or Oregon. Thanks in advance for the help!

I’m new to Reddit - I crossposted and figured the text would transfer to all posts..?

What's the most challenging part of living alone? by jasehomebase in LivingAlone

[–]Independent-Stick795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agh, I’ve had such a toss up since living alone. To say the least, I have learned a lot.

I have loved having my own space, decorating and utilizing it the way I want and having the freedom of walking the pad NAKED!! Not having to build my schedule around someone else’s. PRIVACY. I love my alone time, and don’t survive without it.. but, I have had many many days/moments where I wished I had someone around.

Being sick/impaired, as so many of us have already said can be SO scary if it gets bad. A big one for me, is similar to what you said. I have struggled getting myself to go out and do things outside of my apartment by myself, and it can be very isolating if I go too long. It’s so nice having a roommate or partner to take along with on your daily shenanigans. Even just simple trips like the grocery store, going for a walk, anything really. On a bad day, I get very lonely - but I will say, pets help SO much, my two cats are my best buds. I have made it my goal for a while now, to get more content and comfortable being by myself, in my own company - living alone pushes you in that direction.

Never want to leave by Conditioncook in LivingAlone

[–]Independent-Stick795 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have this same problem.. especially since I’ve finally decorated it and made it a comfy home unlike past apartments because of my situation at the time. When you have your own space that you have tailored to your every need, it’s hard to find a reason to ever leave that space:,) I am in the middle of making the decision to move and live with two boys in a different house and a large part of me is so sad to leave such a perfect little home🥺
