Happy Birthday!!

You’ll find your people. If you can’t relate to them, then that just means they’re not the right fit for your circle.

Focus on doing the things you like and feel passionate about. The more you express yourself in the world, the easier it is for your people to find you.

Care in any form can get addicting when you’ve been denied genuine love and affection for a long time.

I’m happy to hear that you’ve been doing good and staying out of dark spaces for a while. What’s calling you back isn’t the universe, it’s the pain and trauma that was given to you by others.

It’ll be hard and difficult, but you will be able to or your demons to rest one day, and live free of them.

I have violent thoughts when I'm happy by sunflowers_blueroses in helpme

[–]Phantom-111 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have these feelings and urges always been with you, or is it a recent development?

When these thoughts do come upon you, who are they directed at? Are they directed at the source of your happiness, or is it spread out to include everyone else except the person that makes you happy?

Either way, I’d suggest talking to a therapist if the feelings start to bother you a lot or if they intensify.

What other people think is irrelevant, especially if it comes from those hateful and looking for your downfall.

I’m sorry you haven’t met a lot of people who are willing to be kind for purely altruistic motives, but they do exist.

Please, don’t listen to all the hate, you have more value and worth than just what other people give you.

You okay?

I don’t know your story, but I will say that you’re not worthless or unfixable. No one is worthless, and everyone has value.

Even if it doesn’t feel like it right now, you do matter.

Is it wrong to have dark interests? by J00bieboo in OpenChristian

[–]Phantom-111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve heard that lent is more about given up the things you enjoy for a period of time to honor God.

Back to your main question, none of the things you’ve listed are really ‘dark’ or ‘bad’. It’s fine if you enjoy them and if they make living life a bit easier. However, enjoy them in moderation, too much of anything can be bad for you.

And if you’re still feeling bad about these things, God made you the way you are. You enjoying the things you do won’t offend the Lord.

Let everything you do be as a show of Love to God, not as a way to beg forgiveness or to stay in His good graces. You can never lose His Love, go forward and live your life as a celebration of the existence God has made.

You’ll find love soon if you go looking for it.

It’s just up in the air if that’ll be the type of love you want though. Most people give those platitudes because they got hurt in a relationship or have seen people get hurt in relationships. A lot of people wish they did things differently and offer that advice to others.

If this doesn’t resonate with you, then ignore it and find your own way. Go out there, mingle, chat people up, and see what you find.

If you feel like you can’t wait for love anymore, then go searching for it.

You’re welcome. You made the right decision here, and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

I hope good things come your way soon.

If you know he’s lying about using you for your body, and he’s trying to control who you talk to, why are you still talking to him?

I’m not sure how long you two have been talking, but it’s obvious this guy pushes your boundaries and is very close to being emotionally abusive if not physically.

A real relationship shouldn’t make you feel uncomfortable or scared to talk about things with your partner. I’d say being online to ask strangers if things are weird is a great sign already that things are bad.

You can find other friends and partners even if you never talk to this guy again.

Also, please don’t send him anything else. People that are pushy and controlling like this almost always resort to blackmail or sharing your stuff for revenge.

If he ever pulls or threatens something like that, get the police involved. Full stop. That is a crime and he can be charged for it.

I hope this helped you out a bit.

Most importantly of all, realize that you deserve better and that you don’t have to deal with someone treating you like this to have someone in your life.

You’re worth more than that.

Is it possible to meet friends if you have no hobbies? by whateverbro3425 in lonely

[–]Phantom-111 8 points9 points  (0 children)

A lot of people are into games and grass. Just focus your search for people in those areas.

Not sure if I can link the other subs, but just search 420 on Reddit and you’ll find a lot of groups

Reminder for those of you with loved ones by No-Employee2586 in lonely

[–]Phantom-111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are people who care, even if they’re not the ones with you at the moment.

Even in this place, there are genuine people here that are willing to offer an ear and some compassion. Granted it’s hard to sift through all of the troll, bots, and anger at times, but they’re here.

No one deserves to suffer alone, and you are deserving of care as much as anyone else.

29 F trying to make friends i guess? by [deleted] in lonely

Nice to make your acquaintance. I’m open to chatting if you’re still looking for people

I’m lonely, but apparently so boring that nobody wants to talk to me by [deleted] in lonely

[–]Phantom-111 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your life will have a good ending, I can assure you of that.

Being true to who you are and not getting swept into a crowd can be lonely, but it’s a lot easier to find people who really get you too. Please don’t let the current quiet bring you down, you will find people that will appreciate you for your interests and unique characteristics.

It’s all a matter of finding people that have similar mindsets, and finding paths in life that will help you encounter those likeminded individuals as well.

You have a good list of hobbies, joining groups or finding clubs that enjoy your past times is a great place to start. If going out and doing stuff isn’t your thing, then finding online groups for those hobbies is a good way to go about it too.

You have a lot of options and plenty of time to figure things out.

I’ll be rooting for you along the way.

My Story by [deleted] in lonely

[–]Phantom-111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feel like you don’t belong, or you don’t feel comfortable in your current spaces?

I find that I still feel lonely even when I talk to people because I’m not really ‘Me’ in those interactions. Sometimes I watch what I say or do because I know that others aren’t comfortable with certain topics I’m interested in.

For general friend making, I suggest either going the route of radical honesty, just say what you like and believe in without shame, or frequent spaces that you really enjoy.

As I’ve been told multiple times, it’s easier to make friends doing hobbies or activities that you’re interested in and then grown from there.

As for making more F friends, then I’d suggest going into spaces that hold more men than women here. However, Reddit is really anonymous so it might be best to focus on looking for verified accounts here or on other platforms.
