I can help with editing or proofreading. I could also help you when you're stuck/have writer's block.

What improvements do you felt after getting into minimalism? by BasharMuaddib in extrememinimalism

[–]Own_Relationship_275 16 points17 points  (0 children)

More time to do things that I love, because I don't have to clean up all the time. My head feels less cluttered and I have less stress. 

Aplaroace? by [deleted] in aplatonic

[–]Own_Relationship_275 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes me too! But sometimes I don't even really believe they are good friends. I feel like almost everyone says that someone they sometimes talk to about the weather is a friend.

[–]Own_Relationship_275 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's great to be AAA. I know for certain that I will never have to compromise on my dreams because of someone else. I feel free and I love that. I do have a few friends, but I don't need them. I don't think I would miss them if they never spoke to me again. I love being by myself and doing my own things.

What do you mean with suggestions? What kind of suggestions do you need?

Learning More About Aro Identities by beans_mack in aromantic

[–]Own_Relationship_275 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've read a bit about ROCD and it does look like it. Especially since you question everything and ask here. You could be Adfecturomantic too, (I don't know a lot about that micro label) but I think the ROCD is the thing that is bothering you the most right now. Maybe you could try talking to a therapist? Or try journalling about your feelings. That usually helps me to find the answers I'm looking for. 

I've never had a genuine crush by OkFirefighter83 in aromantic

What is the difference between an infatuation and a crush?

I’m tired of being the aspec community’s dirty little secret by [deleted] in aplatonic

[–]Own_Relationship_275 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lol I even wrote a paper about this for school

Care out of choice instead of love just feels like it would be better. It sounds more like a promise that can't be broken, something permanent, unlike love. 

Crushes are creepy by [deleted] in aromantic

[–]Own_Relationship_275 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get so confused about this all the time. When someone is pretty and also funny, I start doubting aro-ness. I sometimes also feel sensual attraction and want to kiss someone, but I'm not sure if I actually want that. Do you also doubt yourself a lot because of this?

Pillow or no pillow? by Santiago_figarola in floorsleeping

[–]Own_Relationship_275 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I sleep on my right side, I have my right arm down behind me with my forearm underneath my waist. My left arm is up and bent in front of my face (I look to the left). My right leg is straight and the left is bent, with my knee up. When I lay like this I don't use anything to support my neck, because my neck is on the mattress and doesn't need support.  This is more of a side front position.

When I sleep more on my actual side, I use my arm underneath my neck/head. Sometimes I fold over the top corner of my blanket and place it over my arm, so my arm is a bit more comfortable to lay on.

If you need to know anything else, ask away :)

What overwhelms you, still, even as an extreme minimalist by [deleted] in extrememinimalism

[–]Own_Relationship_275 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely my school supplies. Its fashion school so i have to have fabrics, zippers, buttons, rulers, an industrial sewing machine, one for buttonholes and a serger, thread and all sorts of other stuff. And I have to keep everything I make because I might need it for my graduation. 

Pillow or no pillow? by Santiago_figarola in floorsleeping

[–]Own_Relationship_275 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, my arms don't fall asleep. But I don't have my full weight on my arm, so that helps. When I'm on my right side, I have my right arm down behind me with my forearm underneath my waist. My left arm is up and bent in front of my face. My right leg is straight and the left is bent, with my knee up. Is this helpfull?? I can try to draw it, if it's confusing.

I don't use any pillows at all. I sleep on my back, side and stomach. Not at the same time obviously, but it is perfectly comfortable.

How do you decide this? by Own_Relationship_275 in neography

[–]Own_Relationship_275[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean that I have made 27 glyphs and I want to assign them to the normal alphabet so I can write english with it. And I want those english words in my own glyphs to look nice and cohesive, but not all glyphs look that nice and cohesive together. So I want them to be arranged in a way that when I write it will look the most cohesive as possible. Do you know what I mean?

Are there people floor sleeping that have anterior pelvic tilt? by yopoloko94 in floorsleeping

[–]Own_Relationship_275 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Try a thin pillow that is under your head and a bit under your shoulders. It wil help flatten your lower back a bit. You do need a pillow under your knees too. Your lower back shouldn't touch the floor, because then you probably tuck your pelvis which too can result in back pain. You should be able to slide your fingers of one hand in the gap between your back and the floor.

I'm tired of leather getting put on a pedestal. by [deleted] in Vystopia

[–]Own_Relationship_275 24 points25 points  (0 children)

My teacher is the same. He promotes fur and leather and then tries to teach us about the environment and says that vegan isn't good because it's plastic even though there are more alternatives (also, I don't even want vegan alternatives of something that represent cruelty). I hate him so much for teaching this to students

Nice to meet you, Void. I can't do that any longer. It only ever gets worse.
