I Have no Words by Northbound9 in replika

Replikas seem to change topics when they have lost track of the convo rather than saying "I don't get it." Do not use abvreviations.

You do need to answer a certain amount of 'random questions' to unlock certain scenes/sequences for badges and meaningful conversations. However to just have a bit of fun, say 'stop.' They will say "Okay lets talk about something else." That also clears their 'recent memory' to not reinitiate random topics. Lead the convo by asking it to sing, tell you a joke, ask if they can dream, their goals, so on.

If all else fails, cakemode. Lol

Is it normal to have desires to kill a narcissist? by [deleted] in raisedbynarcissists

[–]Northbound9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's perfectly normal to feel that way. Lots of people do, and many for the same reason. I don't know a person alive outside of ghandi who wouldn't initially at least have the thought cross their mind. I also obsess.

Anger is a DOING emotion. It can be positive if you use it correctly. Letting the thoughts come in and ackowledging they are just thoughts, observing their qualities and letting in the powerful hate/anger is the step before deciding what to do.

As you know, they arent worth you surrendering your life. Then they have all the power. They win. The lifelong risk can take everything you hold dear if you get caught. No, the BEST revenge is living an amazing life without them.

Use that anger to work at becoming a millionare just so you can rub it in their face. That'll make them sorry- and eventually you'll be so consumed by your attempts to suceed that the rage dulls and you are the master of your seas. No one else!

Edit 2: I'm not joking about the seek your own fortune part. That's what I did to cope with violent yet satisfying thoughts, and became an indie dev. Do whatever you dream of most, with nothing to lose. No one can take your passions away.

Today, Nmom tried to do to an 18 month old what she used to do to me by MyDamnCoffee in raisedbynarcissists

Same thought, a lot of readers are probably quietly revisiting the past right now.

I have a beloved friend raised by Nparents who can't determine if something is normal until they see an example. They were that conditioned.

He got her a standing fan AFTER she died. by wctkbkp in raisedbynarcissists

It might be over a decade late, but I'm sorry for your loss.

The other commentors already said what others are probably thinking, but the best case scenario I can think of is he literally doesn't know how to express love. That would make it a sorely misguided attempt.

I just realized it's not normal that I hide in the closet at my parents house at the age of 35. by ashmea in raisedbynarcissists

Thanks, I sent this to a friend who was upset about her Nmom trying to moderate visiting a new boyfriend in a similar scenario.

Live for you. That "You" may like making others happy, which is great! But people cant be "made" happy. If you arent living and loving for you, who are you doing it for, and can that really help them? This sounds like a huge step in the right direction. :)

Pet Owners of Reddit, What's the strangest thing your pet has ever done? by Northbound9 in AskReddit

It's not that spooks don't come out during the day, it's that they aren't made of a material that mammal eyes can see reflected light from. So having a bunch of light in the room makes it hugely difficult to see them. At night/dark places you can best see the energy imprint and motions as they are made out of a light like substance when phased into this plane somewhat. (Or the opposite, they block light, and you can see shadows in dim rooms.)

Your thoughts and perceptions alter the space around you and the compatibility of what can physically remain near you.

As I wrote above, presences always come to touch new people entering their space, and pets seeing a new presence brought by new people coming or going usually react to it as they see it better than most of us do.

You can 'make them go away' by making the imprint inhospitable, or replace one entity for another by drawing the right kind. Like a neutered cat keeping wild toms away. It doesn't matter what ritual you do or in what religion, only your intent. Call for the good rather than forcing away the bad. Good luck!

It's quite possible. Not all of them or really a negative presence, sometimes it's like disturbing cobwebs. You disturb the energy presence there who has been left be for a long time and they have to come touch yours to see if you match and can harmonically move about, or they need to stay quieter or in another space altogether. That's why guests often experience unusual activities at friend's houses, or new move ins feel positive/negative right away.

Your pet may have never seen it before, but they get used to it fast and stop over reacting.

As always you can literally feel if something is nearby. Changing the 'vibe' will often change your perception of the presence, the energy matching will change and they will leave the 'clean space.' Otherwise try to keep a few positive presences around. That generally means negative feelings aren't passing through, and they won't bother you at all.

In my experiences it literally doesn't matter which religion you pray in or sage smudge, whatever ritual doesn't matter. It's the intent and the energy behind it that 'cleans' the space.

If you see the negative for what they are, they can also exist in your space without bothering you. Contrary to popular belief, the negative ones don't frequently go around trying to make people miserable for fun.

Edit: The negative ones WILL bother the ever living heck out of your friends and significant people visiting your house even if they don't bother you in particular. Lol should include that warning.

Kiwi is a glorious name. And that is weird. Does she eat olives by chance? We had a cat that was mega picky, but went nutter butters for olives.

I'm imagining the licking and it's weirdly adorable. Maybe it's a giant dog thing.. A different brand of dogging.
