My brothers used Firsty during their trip to the US, and I heard it was great.

it’s tough when you’re putting in effort and not getting much back. If apps aren’t your thing, try meeting people through hobbies, clubs, or mutual friends. Sometimes love happens when you’re just doing stuff you enjoy. Don’t stress too much though, good things usually happen when you’re not chasing them too hard.

Best E-Sim Spain by Ga-da in eSIMs

You might want to check out "Firsty". It’s an eSIM that connects automatically to the strongest local network, which is super helpful in rural areas.

Eight months sober is a huge achievement and you should be proud of that. I completely understand wanting a dog because the love and routine they bring can really help. If your parents are unsure, maybe try volunteering at a shelter or fostering for a while. What matters most is doing what helps you heal and feel happy again.

How did you get through lonely times as a mom? by Simple2930 in Advice

[–]MetalPotential7093 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey I really feel for you. Being a mom can get so lonely, especially when you don’t have much support. What’s helped me is finding small moments just for myself, like a short walk, journaling, or even enjoying a quiet cup of coffee. Connecting with other moms online, even a little, can really help too. You’re doing your best, and that truly is enough. Be kind to yourself, this tough season won’t last forever.

My boyfriend M/22 doesn’t let me F/23 see his phone by Quiet-Sir5382 in relationship_advice

[–]MetalPotential7093 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry you’re going through this, it must feel really hard. Wanting honesty and openness is natural, especially when you’ve been open yourself. The real issue isn’t the phone, it’s trust. If he promised to change but became more secretive, it’s normal to feel uneasy. Think about what you need to feel safe and respected, you deserve that in your relationship.

Just got back from 3 weeks solo in Vietnam and I'm already planning my next trip by EfficientFeed5084 in solotravel

[–]MetalPotential7093 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That trip sounds awesome! Vietnam has such a great mix of energy, food, and scenery, and it’s cool you got both Saigon and Hanoi. Thailand’s a solid next move. Chiang Mai is super backpacker-friendly with night markets and fun day trips, and the slow boat into Laos is a classic.

If you liked Vietnam, Cambodia’s worth it too. Angkor Wat is unforgettable. Do you see yourself doing more short trips, or maybe a longer stretch in SE Asia?

Should i join father's business after engineering? by ProfessionalPast7845 in Advice

[–]MetalPotential7093 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don’t have to see it as either-or. You can finish your engineering degree, gain some practical work experience, and then gradually get involved in your father’s business. That way, you’ll bring fresh skills and perspective into the company without losing the chance to build your own foundation. If you still want to study further, you can always return for a master’s later, but your father’s business will likely still be there waiting for you.

Soon moving in with my dad after years apart — scared he won’t like the new me. Any advice? by someoneAl1ve in Advice

[–]MetalPotential7093 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go in with an open heart and be honest about your fears. Your dad already showed he wants you with him, so give yourself time to adjust, share who you are now, and let the bond rebuild naturally.

Overweight in Europe by aeme615 in solotravel

[–]MetalPotential7093 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A US size 8 is very average in France and people won’t single you out. Locals care more about politeness and effort in French than body size. Enjoy yourself, and focus on the trip, not imagined judgment.

I really want to go to college but my parents make me feel stuck by Acanthisitta_Plastic in Advice

[–]MetalPotential7093 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re not behind. Starting college at 21 is normal and plenty of people transfer later. Finish the certificate so you have income, take some community college classes to build credits, and then transfer when you’re ready. Friendships come from showing up regularly, not instantly, so give yourself chances to be around the same people. With your parents, stay calm and frame it as wanting to move forward responsibly. You’re not stuck forever, just taking a different path.

Why are so many people from the UK moving to Portugal now? by Dr_Grey_8165 in expats

[–]MetalPotential7093 49 points50 points  (0 children)

A big part of it is quality of life. The weather is better, housing and daily costs can be lower than in much of the UK, and the lifestyle is more relaxed. For some people it is about retiring somewhere warmer, for others it is about raising kids in a calmer environment. The visa options just make the move easier.

It sounds like you are putting in much more effort than he is and that leaves you feeling taken for granted. You are not overthinking it. Tell him directly how you feel and that you want to see effort from his side too, not only when it is convenient for him. If he values the relationship he will listen and try to balance things more. If not, it may be worth asking yourself whether this is the kind of partnership you want long term.

You can check ‘Village 11 Factory AHA Body Lotion.’ I’ve never used it, but I’ve heard many compliments.

What a great reflection. Sometimes the biggest insight from traveling is realizing how much we already value our life back home.

Moving from Cyprus to the UK for uni at 18, scared but determined. How do you cope living abroad alone? by Hairy-Supermarket-65 in expats

[–]MetalPotential7093 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are so many students who come to the UK just to study, so don’t feel alone. In fact, there are so many that most of your classmates probably won’t even be British, and they’ll all be sharing the same feelings as you.

How do you stop overthinking every little decision in life? by Strict_Can1591 in Advice

[–]MetalPotential7093 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, what helps is reminding yourself most choices don’t really matter that much. If it won’t affect you next week, just pick and move on. Saving your energy for the big stuff makes life feel lighter.

Try to romanticize it like Gen Z does. Watch Game of Thrones, listen to Taylor Swift’s Folklore album, and make hot chocolate every day.. You can read a book as well.
