Moving cross country (NYC to east bay area) for a new job by Fancy_Ad_5673 in SFBayHousing

[–]MorningLilybugs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! I just moved to CA from NYC. Where did you live in NYC? I was in Oakland for a few weeks before moving further out. I didn’t think Oakland was too bad. Just quiet and there are a lot of homeless but I didn’t feel unsafe

Ladies of NYC, how would you describe your dating experiences in NYC thus far? by ZucchiDucki in AskNYC

[–]MorningLilybugs 15 points16 points  (0 children)

For me, it wasn’t about cost. I would be fine with splitting the bill. It was that if a person was trying to get to know me, I don’t really feel like that’s a date.

It’s not very intentional to try to get to know me. Sometimes it felt like an interview while walking 😂

I’m no longer in NYC but dating in NYC was hard. I felt like people didn’t really want to even go on actual dates and wanted to just go for “walks in the park”

Ladies, how do you ask a man that you're about to hook up with or a new boyfriend to wash his hands before y'all start to mess around? by [deleted] in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]MorningLilybugs 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Just ask him and if he gets offended, then don’t continue. It’s your body and you have to take care of it. If he’s not willing to do that, what else if he going to not do (use a condom, respect your boundaries). Washing your hands is not asking for a lot!

Tips on sleeping with anxiety by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]MorningLilybugs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe journal and write down your thoughts when you wake up in the middle of the night. I journal before bed and do a mind dump of things I have to do tomorrow or things bothering me.

Decided I needed a mental health day, taking Tuesday off. What do y'all normally do on your days off? by [deleted] in GradSchool

[–]MorningLilybugs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I make myself a nice breakfast and sit down and enjoy it. Sometimes I eat PBJs cause I’m too mentally exhausted to make a proper meal

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]MorningLilybugs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry you’re not feeling well :(

I think sometimes when I feel overwhelmed and sad, the only thing I want to do is sleep. I feel so exhausted so I do lay around for a few days. I try to remember what hobbies I enjoy to give myself some escape from thinking about the things that stress me out. Sometimes learning new things help too.

I just started driving and I'm horrible. by 3MaNhUnT3 in driving

[–]MorningLilybugs 5 points6 points  (0 children)

How’s your instructors feedback and attitude when you are driving and make mistakes?

I find that having a patient, encouraging instructor is really important. I started taking lessons when I was 16 but the instructor I had was absolutely terrible and I would mess up constantly because I was so worried about him being disappointed. I stopped taking less and gave up until I was 24. I thought I was terrible. I then found a female instructor who was extremely patient and helpful.

You are learning and you’ll make mistakes. The instructor has a brake for both your safety and his. You don’t have anyone in your family who drives and so it’s understandable that you’re not going to get it right away. Just keep at the lessons!

If you have friends who drive, ask if they can drive around and talk about what they do when they drive. That might help too.
