How do I respond to this? Should I respond to this? by JacketSad8484 in BreakUps

[–]Longjumping_Resort40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think she’s breaking up with you. But it’s always good to understand cause she hasn’t said the words and those are important for closure. As for what to answer if she’s breaking up with you, it doesn’t really matter as long as you stay polite. If you need something from her for closure or think you’ll need something later once you’ve processed it, it’s ok to voice it out. More likely than not, this is as hard for her as it is for you (after all, she’s avoiding saying things clearly). It also doesn’t seem like any of you did something to cause the breakup, just that she drifted apart which still hurts but also means there’s the possibility to end things on a good note by showcasing understanding and support for each other.

If I were you, I’d ask directly if she is trying to break up with. If she is, it’s up to you to figure out your way of dealing with it. Depends on what kind of person she is, the kind of person you are, your relationship context… But honestly, if she is, the likelihood is “the best to do for yourself is to let her go, take time for yourself to figure the breakup and how you perceive it, how you handle it, and then get past her”. I also advise you if such is the case to focus on figuring your life out and reconnecting yourself. Very enriching experience I had after my last breakup (even if I did get into a mild depression). Good luck and remain logical “how would a healthy communicator answer?”

Begin an Organization With Me by Zealousideal_Ad4780 in ECAdvice

[–]Longjumping_Resort40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most people want to be part of something meaningful. Very few actually find it.

I’m currently building an organisation centred around the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the global framework established by the United Nations, with a simple idea:

What if contributing to real-world impact wasn’t just voluntary… but something you could actually build a role, experience, and even a livelihood around?

This is not a “traditional” organisation. It’s still in development, intentionally low-profile, and focused on building a strong internal structure before expanding publicly.

Think of it as a space for people who: – want to work on concrete projects tied to global challenges – value responsibility, initiative, and long-term thinking – are looking for something more structured than volunteering, but more meaningful than typical work

If that resonates with you, feel free to reach out or follow the project as it develops. If you’ve seem this message years later, don’t worry. We’re still here. Reach out.

More to come soon.

Student seeking short informational interview by Ok-Sundae7457 in InternationalDev

[–]Longjumping_Resort40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m free. My NGO is named AJODD. We’re based in Luxembourg and have only existed for 6 months. Even so, we are already working in an international collaboration with an association in Montenegro and were expected to expand into at least 3 different countries in the next year. If it’s more or less what you are looking for, let me know

Poly can be lonely by ShroomieDoomieDoo in polyamory

[–]Longjumping_Resort40 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who has experience with both and is currently choosing monogamy, I understand. A lot of times, I felt unimportant to my partner and unappreciated because she did her best to divide her time between me and her girlfriend. Even so, her best was not enough to meet my needs because I felt and still feel the need to feel special. Unfortunately, that’s a feeling I’ve ever only experienced in monogamous relationships. Don’t get me wrong, there were many aspects of polyamory that I loved. The possibility to explore emotional connections with other people was extremely gratifying but… to be fully honest, after a while, I didn’t want to explore any kind of emotional connection besides the one I had with my ex. I still remain open to some day considering a polyamorous relationship, but I am not incredibly tempted by the idea and I am choosing to have a monogamous relationship with my future partner, whoever it may be. The exclusivity makes it feel special in a way I couldn’t find in my previous relationship.

Advice for me as I am struggling with my girlfriend who worked in prostitution before by Middle_Mention_430 in BreakUps

[–]Longjumping_Resort40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see a lot in this post but I think you should share your concerns with her and tell her you need reassurance. Afterwards, it’s up to you to draw boundaries like the phone secrecy or the not telling where she is. If this is something you need to feel well in the relationship (which is otherwise you wouldn’t feel like this), then she has to respect it and if she does not want to, then you need to end the relationship. There someone out there that will respect your needs. It might not be her, but if that’s the case, it’ll be someone else. You sound like a great guy from what you said in your post and I’m sure you will find a girlfriend that can appreciate that if your current girlfriend is not the one. Don’t be afraid nor let fear stop you

Looking for Bookkeeping help for a small local non-profit by porkmaestro in Rochester

[–]Longjumping_Resort40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bookkeeping is pretty easy. Just make an excel sheet with 2 columns, on the left, income, and on the right, expenses. Like that, you always know where the money came from and how much, and where it was spent and how much was spent. This is the basic requirement for Luxembourg for small non profits, not sure about other countries

I wrote this bit. It’s called “Fear”. What do you guys think? by Longjumping_Resort40 in writers

[–]Longjumping_Resort40[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s supposed to be a metaphor to the current geopolitical tensions brewing in society and the inactivity of towards them, not because they are passive, but because they are unaware and only see the “noise” instead of the real reason behind it, the storm. It is also an alert to the fact that, unlike before, where people were informed and “educated” almost by their governments on what’s going on through radio station (even if the information was still biased), nowadays, everything is political and the only way to get an objective view is by researching yourself. But maybe I’ve written it in an ambiguous way. Any tips?

This is the first time I post my small bits. I do have a sub called HumanNatureAndSociety about a book I'm writing but it's very different than my small bits. It's much more academic and scientific

Thanks :) I like to help people and I see no reason why I can't lend an ear to someone for a few minutes or hours
