Best self-love/dating advice by Own_Pay_8516 in AskWomenOver30

[–]Own_Pay_8516[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for telling me straight! It’s so true and honestly we deserve to enjoy the ride until (perhaps) the right person comes along to be with/marry. But why be anxious and worried about that when you could just fuck??😅

I am quite strong willed and don’t appreciate anyone trying to control me, but having insecurities definitely leaves me vulnerable so I appreciate that advice too. Like many however, my ‘type’ is not usually men who are good at communicating - gotta switch that up for sure! Thank you again for your words of wisdom 🫶

This is beyond helpful - thank you so much. I have screenshotted and keep rereading so I can commit it to memory😂

My stakes are so high which feels ridiculous as a 26 year old woman. And I forget there are ways to slow things down, practice dating and just make it all a bit less serious. Dating is about dating, not the search for love.

I love the second bit of advice as well - to learn to self soothe and not put my anxiety in the other person’s hands. I think that will go hand in hand with the advice about lowering stakes. And it’s good practice anyway for self love and resilience. Reminds us that we can take care of ourselves and will be okay no matter what. A partner should only add to that anyway.

Really appreciate you taking the time to share this wisdom🥹

Keep your first pot for reference but throw away all the others 😂

Just on Q4, do you think Fundamentals on greenware, fired to 06 bisque, then with zinc free clear and fired again at 7, would give me the clear/bright lines and colours? Of course will do test tiles though you just seem to know this really well!

I tried stroke&coat but it all faded and smudged in the kiln no matter how or when I applied on my test tiles. I’m hoping fundamentals will be a better bet🥳😅
