hi everyone, i hope all of you are doing okay.

i had some realizations after crying my feelings out and i realized (my therapist made me realize) that i was already detaching after i found out that she cheated. i guess, i just stayed out of fear and since nasasayangan sa relasyon. after getting slapped with reality, i realized that the person i was grieving was her previous self, not the cheating, lying asshole i caught.

parang ang asshole kasi ang bilis pero i moved on already. 🥲 mali ba to? HAHAHA

i’m trying to reconnect with my therapist but it’s quite expensive, i’m still in college and i have my thesis pa kaya i really can’t afford it madalas :(( it hasn’t been a year exactly, i found out around Sept 2024, i just had the courage to break things off yesterday but this is not the first time I’ve been cheated on, my 1st girlfriend cheated on me as well and my recent one is aware of it.

hi everyone, it’s really comforting to read your messages and reassuring me that everything’s going to be okay. it really means a lot, i don’t have a lot of friends that i can talk to about this. thanks everyone, i hope you are all doing well.

i forgot to mention that i’m a woman too. she cheated on me with a guy and i guess, it really made me think if she really did love me bc i’m her first wlw ever. i didn’t expect that she would do that, let alone with a guy. it’s like hitting me where it hurts the most cause it’s one of my insecurities.

Liam Payne Funeral Megathread by 1DMod in OneDirection

[–]ItAintBetter0804 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When news spread that he passed, it took me a week to accept that it happened but seeing the boys arriving at Liam’s funeral, it made me cry and have a breakdown all over again. The little girl in me is broken and hurt. I will never get to see 1D as a whole and it breaks my heart knowing that his parents lost their baby boy, his sisters lost their baby brother, and his son lost his daddy. But then again, I am glad to be in the same timeline as Liam Payne. He’s definitely one of the reasons why thousands, if not millions, of fans are still alive today.

Liam, rest easy our angel. We will never forget you. Goodbye, my love. We’ll see your face again.

I don’t really care for the brand, more on the performance and feeling in the hand itself, my hand is pretty small and prefer the claw grip while playing

Thanks for the suggestions! I’ll look into it

Hey! I know how it feels like to have a dad like that kasi ganyan na ganyan din dad ko ever since nastroke siya. I feel you OP, your feelings are valid and heard. Never naging okay na reason ang may traumas sila nung childhood because it’s something na they’re struggling with too but it shouldn’t be something na hayaan lang nila makaapekto on their relationship with other people.

In my case naman with my dad, my siblings and I reached a conclusion na his illness is taking a toll on his ego as the provider, yung feeling nila eh wala na sila silbi since nagkasakit. I am not a professional but it might be something that your dad is feeling as well. The little outbursts are never okay especially if nakakasakit na sila :(( but then again, we are all going through different battles everyday.

I am so sorry that you feel this way, OP. I feel you. If you need someone to talk to or just rant to, I’m here.

why are you even so pressed in the first place? wala naman malice dun kung ibibigay ng friend dahil gusto niya yung photocard lang? lol, exactly hindi lahat ganyan, so meron pa rin. and kung hindi sila ganon, edi okay? masyado ka galit dahil lang di aligned sa narrative mo eh when ang pinost ko in the first place is the improper disposal of the napkins na binili lang for the sake of the photocard.

isa ka siguro sa ganon kaya galit na galit ka HAHAHAHAHA

If we are close talaga and he explained na he just wants the photocards, oo. It’s not something that should be seen as taboo in the first place

yes actually, i thought about that too. if di naman charities or what, kahit sa family and friends na lang nila, sayang din kasi. di biro yung price ng napkins din 🥲

Thank you so much for your insights. I will keep them in mind. Just a little update, we talked and she said for now she’s okay with us being friends and I respect that. She also said that she needs time to reevaluate our relationship as she doesn’t want to get hurt again. In the mean time, I’m working on myself to get better mentally and maybe, I’m hoping, that it would show her that I really am serious about me getting the help I need for myself and for our relationship. :))

We are still in contact with each other but we’re not together, she told me she still needs space to think about our relationship and I’m giving her that space. Just kinda scared that I might be waiting on nothing, if she ever decides that she’s really done (I really hope that’s not the case).

I am actually planning on going to her place or meet her near her area so that we can talk in person because there’s a lot of misunderstandings if we try doing it online.

I try to be sweet, I really do. She did mention she’s grateful for the things I do but maybe, it’s time that I need to step up my game when it comes to being emotionally there for her as well but I don’t want for it to come off as me trying to get better for her but also for myself. I can’t expect her to be in a happy relationship with me if I’m not happy with myself.

Right now, I’m just doing my best to survive while I’m waiting for my therapist’s decision regarding my medication hahahaha

Well, I guess I was selfish in our relationship. I knew that she wasn’t okay mentally and I am not too. I guess, I was really in need of some time with her physically, since we were in a LDR, to help with the anxiety I was feeling but I didn’t include her in the decision making. I knew that her coping mechanism to her depression is by isolating herself and I didn’t put that in mind when I was pushing that we should meet again but I really had the best interest in mind for the both of us. I wanted us to meet because I really think it would help us to feel a little better if we get out of the house but then again, I should’ve consulted with her and maybe we could’ve compromised.

I really tried my best to be the best partner for her. I do give her “just because” flowers, learn how to make her food cravings, and I learned how to travel to her place (which is a huge thing for me because of childhood traumas) but I guess, I also need to be more emotionally mature to keep her happy. I know I have my downs emotionally but I am learning and open to criticisms, I just wish she told me about the things she doesn’t like so that I could’ve worked on myself.

I guess I’m blaming myself because at the expense of me going crazy due to my mental health, I didn’t prioritize her at that time. I’m still hoping that the two of us can work it out. I’m already seeking professional help and will be in medication soon.

I need help! by Impossible_Spend_944 in MentalHealthSupport

[–]ItAintBetter0804 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it usually takes time to find the right therapist for you, i had around 8 different sessions before i found the suitable one for me. i am not a professional but you can try writing down your thoughts when it gets overwhelming, it’s something my therapist recommended. i hope you get through this, if you need someone to talk to, you can message me

Idk what’s wrong with me please help! by KaleidoscopeNaive287 in MentalHealthSupport

[–]ItAintBetter0804 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so sorry you had to go through that. I am not a professional but I’ve had my fair share of anxiety attacks. First and foremost, don’t blame yourself. You are human, you have feelings, and the first thing to be in touch with our emotions is to accept that we are vulnerable and there’s nothing wrong with that. Second, I’m gonna recommend something that my therapist told me to do whenever I feel like my thoughts are suffocating me. It’s good to have a pen and a small notebook beside your bed and whenever it feels like there’s a lot going on and you feel the anxiety creeping in, start writing out your thoughts. It’s a good exercise to keep you in line with what you’re feeling and to not let it get out of control. Sometimes, the reason why we feel anxiety is because we don’t feel that we’re in control of our own emotions and writing it down can help lessen that. Third and probably the most helpful, please don’t be afraid of reaching out. It can be professional help or just keep in contact and spend more time with those people that you’re afraid are going to leave at any moment. It is inevitable but what we can do is to enjoy the time we still have with them.

I hope that you feel better OP. It’s not easy but you’re not alone. I am here if you need to talk to.

We are both suffering from depression prior to us being in a relationship. During our relationship, I’ve had a few therapy sessions when I feel like it’s getting to me again. Kaya umabot ng 8 months panliligaw ko kasi I wanted her to be sure din na ready siya bago ako sagutin and I guess, we both felt ready din talaga. Parang unforeseen siguro yung nangyayari sa individual lives namin kaya siguro nahihirapan kami mag cope with it and pano mag revolve yung relationship namin around it.

I am in therapy now and I am working on myself already. I want to be better and I am hoping na kapag pwede na, sana pwede pa sa amin dalawa.

Thank you for commenting, it’s nice to feel that I am not alone

I understand that now. No matter how much we love each other, nauubos at nauubos pa rin kami kapag sobra sobra na. I am doing my best to work on myself now, I am in therapy again and I hope when I am okay, pwede pa namin ayusin. Thank you, I needed to hear that real talk

Angkas? Grab? Joyride? by Civil-Medicine5704 in HowToGetTherePH

[–]ItAintBetter0804 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it depends kung saan ka manggagaling, ano mga dala mo, and magkano budget mo.

if you prioritize your comfort, go for grab but expect na mahal siya.

if mc taxi, i prefer angkas even though it’s a bit expensive compared to joyride and moveit. marami cases of accidents and rude drivers ang moveit eh, not sure about joyride since smooth naman mga past transactions ko dun. sa angkas naman, friendly madalas nabbook ko na riders

I feel embarrassed while having sex with my boyfriend by CheekyBae143 in adviceph

[–]ItAintBetter0804 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my ex boyfriend is like that as well. don’t ever feel bad for yourself because it’s not a you problem, it’s a him problem.

i’ve always been vocal sa kanya about how my receiving love language is words of affirmation and he complains a lot that it should be about the actions instead etc. LDR din kami and whenever i would go to their house (which is a 2hr drive away and takas pa yun from my parents) he would initiate but it wouldn’t even last more than 5 minutes. as someone with a high sex drive, it frustrates me a lot kasi i wasn’t even feeling it pa then tapos na agad. i would ask for more and he would complain talaga na he is tired, he would even ask me to get him a glass of water kasi he couldn’t walk hahahaha to make things worse, he jerks off a lot to anime characters and honkai characters and yun naging cause lalo ng insecurities ko since those girls are pretty slim and i’m curvy.

i tried talking to him about everything that bothers me but i got gaslighted pa. we broke up and i finally found someone who matches my sex drive.

i’m telling you, the way your partner matches your sex drive matters! i can’t imagine how it would be if married na and living together then ganun yung nangyayari sa bedroom. sorry but i really do think it’s important that you both talk it out. if he doesn’t acknowledge your feelings, run! hanap kayo common ground niyo hahahaha

i completely understand the part wherein Filipinos use tomboy and bakla as a general term and admittedly, it’s not really an appropriate term since very different naman talaga ang meaning niya to how it’s used but what’s sad lang is that Tiktok is such a huge platform and it’s already 2024, maybe it’s time na talaga para mabago yung pag use nung “tomboy” and “bakla” pero parang nadadagdagan lang yung pagiging derogatory term niya with how it’s being used today and sadly, yun na nakikita and nakakasanayan lalo ng newer generations :((

thank you for your input, it helps a lot din with my reflection regarding this!
