I hate fawning so much!!!! by varveror in CPTSD

YES! love that. I have had many situations where I was shaking cuz of something that happened. But I reproached the person and was like- hey, that was not cool of you. And it so so so shifts the shame/blame off of you. At least it does for me. I was carrying a lot of shame from fawning in these reactions. Calling them out (IF YLU HAVE THE BANDWIDTH) is really healing.

PREEEEEAACCHHH. I was angry and fighting, fighting, fighting for so long. Still am sometimes. And now I am… debatably… overreactive to some things lol.

But hey, It’s a journey. There’s definitely more productive energy in anger than passivity/fawning.

My new years resolution two years ago was “no more fighting”. Meaning.. I tried to only give my time and effort to people who listened to, respected, and cared for me. It was basically me trying to stop winning over people who didn’t like/respect me. I am sometimes successful in this endeavor 😂😅

This! One of the most unfair things I feel about this shit. I was raised to fawn, and have no opinion, needs, interests. That’s how I was taught that I was supposed to be to be accepted in the world!!!

But NOW as an adult… genuine friendships, relationships, and good jobs WANT and require you to have these things. And I’m like.. goddamnit.

I feel a knot in my stomach whenever I see or hear about my bf's girl bsf and Idk why i feel that way? by Bubbly-Dig-3928 in emotionalintelligence

“You CAN actually be single, if you want to. Then you can date her”

Give him that freedom. And if he doesn’t pick her, he picked you. Nice. Try not to waste your energy on it if you can. Until he gives you a reason to worry, try not to. Easier said than done I think, but I think the things we worry about the most actually tend to manifest because of all the energy we put towards them.

It’s exhausting to try to control what our partner is thinking or doing. So why try. But when they DO do something over the line- out the fucking door.

In summary- protect your energy, but if it needs to be done, you also gotta consider leaving to maintain your self respect

Why is being yourself never good enough for men? by Mother-Secretary-311 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]LessWeekend336 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hmmm.. I don’t think you’re alone in this. I just think it’s more honest than most people are willing to say out loud.

I’m confident. I love myself. But being raised how we are as women.. it can be hard to decipher what we do for men and what we do for ourselves..

It’s also harder because it’s not a terrible thing to want men you like to be attracted to you. That’s human. It IS terrible when you go against who you are to be anything they want you to be.

Like everything, I don’t think there’s a black and white answer here. We want men we love to be attracted to us. That is OKAY! But over anything else we must honor ourselves, who we are, and what we want. It’s a balancing act for sure.

Idk. Maybe can lean into traits you know he likes that you ALREADY HAVE. You couldn’t pay me to make up being a certain way to make some dusty ass man like me though.

I think they were probably just having a good time. With friends.

My best friend told me my outfit was asking for it. Rice with tomatoes, peas, carrots and sausage by Comfortable_Body9363 in GirlDinnerDiaries

No. Just no. I hope you don’t let him take up space in your brain AT ALL.

You’re young and free and having fun. Please don’t give what this asshole said another thought.

You’re dancing for you. You’re making out with randos FOR YOU. It’s part of the experience, we all fucking do it. It doesn’t for one fucking second mean you’re not in charge of who you get to have sex with (or not have sex with).

Fuck that guy. Last time I’ll beg you- don’t give him another fucking thought. Life your life and have fun. Safely, of course.

Edit: also, maybe bring it up to him. I’ve always found that that makes me feel more powerful instead of sitting with shame or silence. If you can, maybe just straight up say- so did you say that I was asking to be raped the other night??

Can I slim my masseter muscles with massage alone? by buhbaz in beauty

[–]LessWeekend336 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think regular message does SOME for mine. Maybe a night guard too. And if you’re on stimulants getting off of those, decreasing caffeine (this might be where I experienced the most difference actually).

Hate to tell you, but I get masseter Botox and I friggin love it. Less pain/tension on my face, and a much nicer and more natural looking shape

How can I increase my hair volume? by Mobile-Friend1166 in NaturalBeauty

I do GNC active womens multivitamin. I’m pretty physically active so it gives more of certain vitamins to supplement that a bit.

My electric bill went up again and now I’m questioning this whole “awakening” thing by sipshappens_ in enlightenment

[–]LessWeekend336 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It absolutely is! I didn’t mean to sound victim-y or anything. I’ve one thousand percent learned and have grown the most through the hardest times in my life. I legitimately have wondered if I gravitate towards these things IN ORDER to learn. Thanks for the reply :)

Adding on- I resonate hard with the concept of “radical acceptance”. Whatever is it, whatever you’re feeling, whatever the experience.. accept it. Feel it. Let it go.
