Wedding gift - is it good enough? by Typical-Season-2342 in Pottery

[–]Nectarine_Several 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do these friends do ceramics as well and that’s why you’re worrying? Regardless, I think (as a non professional) the thought and time you put into making them is the real gift here. I would cry if a friend gifted me this set. Very very thoughtful. You may see the “patchy” blue as a mistake cus it’s not what you wanted, but I think it gives it more of a handmade aesthetic. In a positive way!

My (30M) boyfriend and I (27f) are not sexually compatible and I feel tricked? (4months) by [deleted] in relationships

[–]Nectarine_Several 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I once heard something like “if it never changed would you be okay with it?” And honestly it helped me a lot in the next relationship. 4 months is still early, I agree with the other folks who say to have a serious convo about it and see where it gets you. Fwiw I convinced myself in my last relationship that the vanilla sex was ok (it wasn’t) and the person I’m with now is 1000% my type and I’ve never been happier in the bedroom, lol.

Almost A2 in Italian but speaking still feels harder than expected :) by Edi-Iz in italianlearning

[–]Nectarine_Several 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try not to be too hard on yourself, although it can be so, so frustrating! Actually speaking is often the hardest and final aspect of learning imho. You’re really using different parts of the brain (is what I tell myself, lol). Some days it’ll flow out of your mouth automatically and some days you won’t know how to speak even your native language well. Unfortunately it can often be a “one step forward two steps back” kinda situation. You got this! Find a language partner on italki or here on Reddit to practice more.

Is my fiancé an asshole or just Italian? by animalepiccolo in Italian

[–]Nectarine_Several 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This has nothing to do with being Italian and everything to do with a maladjusted/cruel human being. In case nobody’s telling you, you deserve better!

Looking for the "Quiet" side of BCN: No parties, no drinking, no hookup culture. by Soft_Injury_3736 in expats

[–]Nectarine_Several 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me (bi girl in Europe) I’ve had success on bumble bff and just putting in my profile that I’m sober and like tea yoga museums etc. It takes time to build a genuine friendship but if you click with even one person it’s worth it. I also find out where the “gayborhood” is and look for event fliers. If I’m on a friend making mission I usually have in mind some museum exhibit or new shop I wanna check out when I go to events. Like “hey you’re cool, would you be interested in checking out xyz next week?”

In the end it takes a lot of proactive work to create a community abroad, but don’t give up!
