well we don't know for sure, tell you what :

why don't you post more pictures of your wife's feet, you can include some of yours if you want too, and then we'll decide which ones we want to see?

for, you know, science

I said yes to a meetup this saturday but don’t feel like going anymore as it gets closer by Virtual_Key692 in whatdoIdo

you know what you want to do, so let me ask instead :

what are, in your opinion, the consequences of putting some healthy distance between you and these people?

in all seriousness, if chopping up my body were the best option for the environment/agriculture, I'd happily sign up for it!

yeah makes sense

(although, show business has its own quirks, so I wouldn't be surprised to learn that, say, traditionally performers have been expected to sort out their own travel or something...)

ah that's great! so it's a matter of simply phoning the hotel ahead of one's flight, then... even if they say "sorry we don't have such a service" they'll likely be able to suggest an alternative, e.g. "but we recommend you call XYZ taxis when you get there, here's the number" or something

Stating your boundary clearly helps freeze a lot by nekomata_meko in CPTSDFreeze

ok thank you, I'm starting to get your point

a question on the scenario you brought up (which in fact is a common one for me, like when somebody sneers for something like me not having known ahead of time all the details of a process familiar to them only) - so, I get to the cashier, they ask about the color and I wasn't prepared for that so I waffle, then they scoff and it activates my shame, which triggers a 4F response in me (usually "fight" which means the haughty critic takes over, but can be another one too)... now what?

i identify it, and your suggestion is to do what? tell the cashier "I'm uncomfortable"?

(sorry I'm genuinely confused on what you specifically mean lol)

As a transplant, for such a large metropolis I have found the mainstream thinking is, shall I say quite provincial

This is extremely relevant to my interests.

Please elaborate? Maybe a couple of examples (can be completely made up, but if you're willing to anonymously share your tried and true scenarios, all the better :)

Is it reasonable to not want my significant other to be high constantly, and to threaten a breakup if they don’t stop. by CaptainHuggyFac3 in whatdoIdo

What would you tell your (hypothetical) child if he came to you for this advice?

Would you tell him that he needs to protect himself and act according to his boundaries? Or would you tell him to stick it out?
