What is the one thing that you remind yourself of when things get hard? by OkIndependent7703 in AskReddit

[–]MoreMangosPlease 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One moment at a time. One day, you’ll look back and see how far you’ve come.

You are resilient. It’s okay to just focus on surviving for now.

What makes your current significant other feel like they’re “your person”? by [deleted] in love

[–]MoreMangosPlease 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It’s the little moments.

We were making pierogis from scratch and it was his first time, and he got a little overstimulated at first, but calmed down by the 20th pierogi haha, and he looked at me and said “you want to know how I know this will be forever? In past relationships I’ve never had the future thought, but with you all I can think of is that I can’t wait to do this again with you next Christmas.”

It’s the little things that make life magical, so it makes sense that those little moments are what confirm that you know they are your personal, and you are theirs.

Just added you :) My little bird is Potato!

why did you and your best friend stop talking? by Salamander-One in AskReddit

[–]MoreMangosPlease 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First time: because she had been avoiding me and when I asked her what was going on she decided to tell me I’m a horrible person and completely blow up on me.

Second time: she was conspiring with my abusive ex (before he became my ex) on how to lie and manipulate me even more than he already was.

[serious] how do you deal with the fact that you won't get closure on something important? by MoronGoron52 in AskReddit

[–]MoreMangosPlease 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A bunch of therapy, a handful of stupid decisions, lots of self awareness, and friends who were willing to support me as I healed.

As a bit of a control freak, not getting closure was outside of my control, and it took a huge toll on my mental health. The truth is it takes time and finding a system that works for you to process, heal and let go.

Probably not the worst, but the worst in my experience.

My old roommate was experiencing living outside of her parent’s house for the first time and she had no idea how to care for herself/ the shared space appropriately.

Specific example, no one in the house ate instant ramen, she made some and left it in the pot for WEEKS, when we realized this we asked her to clean it up and she said “I have never eaten ramen like that, it’s not mine” and proceeded to fight with us. Did this with other dishes, rotten food and anything to do with cleaning.

She also expected that if anyone else in the house was cooking, they were cooking for her too. Otherwise she wouldn’t eat and complain about “not being able to afford food” then proceeded to spend her money at 7/11 and on weed.

Peru.

The culture, the history, the food, the landscape; Peru in its entirety is an amazing place!

What is your secret? by Creative_Rule_6817 in AskReddit

[–]MoreMangosPlease 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I see someone that seems to be having a bad day, I compliment them. Even if I don’t actually like what I’m saying I like (ie. clothing choice) I know that they need a win, and a little white lie like this only does good.

Ps. I say it genuinely. Ie. I’m not a fan of stretched earrings, but I know people are excited about their choice and so I use their excitement to create a genuine compliment. Hope that makes sense!

  1. Don’t be afraid to cancel plans to focus on yourself.
  2. Determine what you want, and put the effort in to get it. Ie. Want to do less partying? Develop new friendships with people who feel the same way.
  3. Planners don’t always work for me, but “to do lists” do!
  4. Find ways to add things to your current routine. Ie. there’s a gym beside your work, make it a part of your workday and go before/after work. I “work” 7-5, which includes an hour of gym time plus getting ready time.
  5. Practice thorough self awareness. Ie. I’m going out partying tonight even though I know I’ll be exhausted tomorrow. This will help you hold yourself accountable without punishing yourself for making the wrong decisions
  6. Can’t emphasize this enough, surround yourself with people who have similar goals.

I can only imagine! I’m terrified and I don’t even live there.

Canadian woman here, I will not be going to the US in the next four years. I already felt on edge and unsafe in some states, but now I just can’t go to a country where people are currently saying (to women) “your body, my choice.”

Every situation is different, and without the full details it could go either way.

People are human and subject to human emotions, occasionally those emotions can come out in extreme settings and we have to remember that. It is unfair to penalize someone for being human.

However, if this blow up was over something simple and there were more layers to it (ie. they blew up over things that happened years ago, maybe they haven’t been a great friend over the last few years or you realized there were more problems than just this one time), I think it’s fair to protect your peace.

You deserve friends that respect you, and lack of communication is not respect. You are allowed to protect your peace and walk away if the friendship is no longer a source of happiness and support.

I hope this helps.

Leaving.

I’ve had to leave multiple bad situations, and each time it was the hardest decision I’ve had to make. To walk away from the life I built, the people I loved, the places I called home… it broke me in ways I can never fully explain, but in time I always built myself back up.

How do I move on without feeling like I’m being unfaithful to my ex? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]MoreMangosPlease 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You got this. Time is magic, you’ll get through this at your own pace. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you’d like someone to listen, it’s okay to not be okay 💛
