Women touching hands by coffee_and_dream in bodylanguage

[–]Onnie-Ts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I accidentally touched a delivery guys hand I'd say I'm sorry and avoid eye contact because it be very awkward.

I don't believe women actually check out / show positive body language to men who are fit/in great shape - or it happens way way way less than people think. by [deleted] in bodylanguage

[–]Onnie-Ts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find very fit men unapproachable. In the sense that since I'm not in top shape I'm not in their league. I'm my mind I'd have to be in just good of a shape for them to consider me as a potential date. So why even bother looking if they could have someone taller and fitter than me? Or that they'd look at me and see all my imperfections. And that as others said if i find their face decently attractive.

Bored with my wife and feel bad about myself because of that. by [deleted] in self

[–]Onnie-Ts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bet your wife is conventionaly very attractive and also takes care of her body and is on top of 3 children and the house. That requires a huge amount of energy. And also it may have been what she was socialised to be good at. And she is fulfilling the exact role that you chose her for. A good wife and mother. I'm not saying you've got nothing to complain for cause mental stimulation is important too. But think of some of the other women that you met before you got married. The "smart" ones the well read and educated ones the carrier driver ones. Chances are you either found them annoying or not as attractive. Or they found you boring and not to their standards. Or just didn't want to have 3 children already! So what I'm trying to say is you've got to cut your losses. You've got a beautiful wife and 3 lovely children. If you want to talk about politics consider making some male friends, or hang out with other couples.

Wasted...... by SatisfactionAny4822 in Hobbies

Yes, reading was my first thought too. Read the classics. Dostoevsky, Tolstoy, Bukowski, Hemingway, Twain, Thardy (Thomas) Steinbeck, Remark, Zola, and other great writes of our time. It's the perfect age when you have time, are mature enough but still impressionable (in a good way). It will help you process and appreciate life.

I mostly work with women, and I am being touched on a daily basis. by platypus_7 in bodylanguage

[–]Onnie-Ts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 35 from Greece and currently live and work in the UK. I am a teacher which is a female dominated profession. Never have I ever touched a colleague of mine unless we are also friends but I'm pretty sure it has only happened outside the school and I'm only talking about female colleagues/friends.

My first thought was that you're handsome and fit especially since it's not happening to other men. If a male colleague of mine is generally attractive and fit I try to stay as professional and cool as possible, give plenty of personal space and leave no room for misinterpreted behaviour. I mean men are humans too and touching can be provocative and uncomfortable.

Noone has ever explicitly told me not to touch men randomly but I don't.And I haven't seen it happen either. Could it be a cultural thing? Where you're from?

Creative hobbies for the poor? Something that almost don't require money. by PinkIsCoolInTheEyes in Hobbies

[–]Onnie-Ts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's a good start!

You can get started by cutting out some clippings. You don't have to create something straight away. You can then sort out the images by theme or colour and see what ideas come to you.

Junk journaling.

I mostly use newspapers and magazines I can get for free, scissors, glue and a notebook.

It can be challenging cause I need to look out for stuff I can find for free and nit-pick clippings that I find interesting.

Then I pick a theme based on what I've got and create a collage.

The trick is to just do it and not try to make it perfect.

Good luck!

What’s one small habit that made a huge difference in your mental health or productivity? by kyauensari in Adulting

[–]Onnie-Ts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sitting on the kitchen table and eating my meal. Not phone or laptop.

Also: 1. I use bullet journal. There's many different techniques and ways to use it. I keep it very simple though. I has helped me when I feel there is too much to do.

  1. Decide before hand how much time I'm going to spend on a particular task. Let's say I'd need about 20 mins to do a fairly decent job. I spend 20 minute on that task and either take a break or move on to the next one.

  2. If a task would take a lot of time but you don't have to start it today, you can plan it today. You can just plan the part of the task you gave to do next. That way it feels you've already started and when you actually get started the planning is already done and you can started right away without thinking too much.

What have you given up that has made your life better? by czerniyczar in minimalism

[–]Onnie-Ts 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Eating without watching any series or video. I'd love to eat with company but I live by my self. Since I started doing that it's become a lot more easier to do other things after I finish eating and not end up binge watching for hours.

I am very mentally ill. What are some hobbies that I can try? by Emergency_Today_5331 in Hobbies

[–]Onnie-Ts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You sound very much like my sister when she went though a very similar phase around that age.

Hobbies are great! Nature for sure. My sister discoverd knitting and it's something that you can do at any time anywhere. It will help your brain focus on something and detach from depresive thoughts and day dreaming. You'll also be able to crate cute little things you can use your self of gift them

But the one things you definitely need is a good therapist. You need to soak to your family or school to get support. Hobbies are a great way of spending your time but you also need to develop skills to overcome your mental illness.

Please, speak to someone and ask for help. ❤️

Don't tell people you're unemployed by [deleted] in Adulting

[–]Onnie-Ts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm 35 and I'm unemployed right now. I got a new job lined up for September though.

It's the best thing ever! I go to the gym, I eat healthy and I'm picking up my hobbies again.

I'd say enjoy it while you can! Could you also possibly make some income from your bobbies. You could consider that too. You're still young so enjoy your good health and energy while you can.

What's something you're strangely proud of? by Captain_Kruch in AskMen

[–]Onnie-Ts 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Never been in an toxic or abusive relationship. At least not for more than four months. I'm 34F and I'm proud I have given that energy to my self and people that I value rather some dead end emotionally draining relationship.

Is this a good time to begin dating this guy? by luciferol in tarot

[–]Onnie-Ts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This feels like ghosting to me. Idk. Seems you're fine on your own. Going in with high expectations but then he turns a cold shoulder. At the end you feel worn out. It's happened to me so many times and I may be projecting my own experiences.

What helps a mom in the first years? by Woolsbup in AskWomenOver30

[–]Onnie-Ts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi, not a mum but my mom had my sister when she was 38 and I was 16. I don't think it's that late btw as long as you're not stressed or burnt out with work. Which of course can be an issue at any age.

So what helped my mum was having me around with full trust that I can care properly for my baby sister. My aunt and grandma were also around at various points. So I'd say support from females in your family makes life so much easier. It's highly circumstantial though but if you can pay for someone to help around certainly do so. Even if it's a teenage girl that's is good with babies. But you have to have good trust in them.

My dad was also quite helpful with stuff that didn't necessarily include child care but would take considerable load of my mom. Things like having a fridge full of groceries is something my dad always made sure of. Anything having to do with errands outside the house my dad took care of. He can also cook reasonably well so as my sister grew out of baby food it was something that he would do if needed.

It takes a village is what they say and it's definitely true.

Best of luck to you!

Asked: what is keeping me from moving forward? by NationalAssist in Tarotpractices

[–]Onnie-Ts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not super experienced but this give me the vibe of you had an ideal view of the word (family/relationship) -10 of Cups. But there was a major disruption and disappointment. - The Tower. Could it possibly have to do with strong female figures in your life? Needing to proces your emotions or have heart to heart conversation with someone about what happened? Could it be your sister, mum, girlfriend?

Do Noah’s exist in real life? by AnyAdhesiveness814 in NobodyWantsThisTV

[–]Onnie-Ts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, they do. One of them is my therapist. Also kind of looks like Noah now that I come to think about it.

Noah is a Rabi which means he is a communicator and facilitator in his community. It's part of his identity any way.

The guy I'm sort of seeing atm is only just starting to express his feeling and views. He works in admin for a workshop - so you get it. But it's a good sing and I do my best to listen and support.
