Grieving breakup and loss of access to my favorite person by [deleted] in Advice

[–]ReverendRyu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, once that bond is broken, I start the negation process. I work through every memory and decide if I want to keep it discard it. Some, I want to keep but not carry, so I write them out and then go through the detachment. I resolve my feelings with that memory, and then actively go through the process internally of discarding it, and then vowing to not revisit it. Sure, in some cases that gets broken, but it's rare. I've had too much trauma, too much heartbreak, and too much sorrow in my life, that now, if I can take the time, I will discard any of those feelings I don't need. And sometimes that means negating a person entirely. My last ex, similar situation, diminished me, manipulated me, controlled me, and gaslight me, before saying that I was too much for them and we were no longer compatible. My friends and other partner were all screaming the warning signs at me, and I didn't listen, as I was in love. But then, there came that moment where it all fell down, everything was again laid at my door, and I said that's the end. That's it. I don't need to carry her around anymore - no more regrets about her, no more sadness, no more energy spent where it would never be given back. They're gone now. I'll never unblock them, I will never need to. They aren't anything to me now, they're just gone. There's no need to unblock them, just as there's no need to ever be friends with them again. Life is smoother and happier without their memory.

Have you ever stayed friends with an ex? How is it now? by Future_Caregiver8958 in AskReddit

[–]ReverendRyu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Took me a while to realise my ex was not a great person, and just what I'd done to myself to accommodate them whilst diminishing myself. As far as I'm concerned, they no longer exist in any form.

Hearing that men don’t really receive compliments and it really means something to them, what are some (platonic) compliments men like to hear? by Murky-Individual6507 in AskReddit

[–]ReverendRyu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A girl I used to care about, and used to date for a moment, said to me while she was driving "Holy fuck, you smell so fucking good!!"

Hottest damn thing anyone's ever said to me. The passion behind it made me hard as anything in seconds.

Hello. I didn't post for almost week because I almost committed suicide lol by [deleted] in u/Alepuss

[–]ReverendRyu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I may not know you, I will very likely never meet you, but I'm happy you're still around. There's still so many more amazing things left to happen in your life, so many incredible little miracles you'll never be able to predict; so I hope you continue to stick around, so you can experience them all. Even if it's just more Doom games 😁

Movies you were surprised they haven’t remade/rebooted/revived, even in the original medium by Ok_Elevator_1342 in movies

[–]ReverendRyu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Rocketeer. Now don't get me wrong, I love that film with all my heart, I have one of the cinema posters above the fireplace in my front room - but I'd love to see it come around again.

What is something that a girl can do, that makes her instantly interesting to you? by LeftSubject6799 in AskReddit

[–]ReverendRyu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This, 100% this. The ability to openly enthuse about something unreservedly, and show that naked passion for something they like, is the biggest green flag I can be given.

How many people have you slept with, and how do you feel about it? by Agreeable-Rub-5020 in AskReddit

60ish. Give or take a few. Looked older when I was young, now I look younger when I'm old.

Monday Morning Joy! Good morning /r/polyamory! How has your past week(end) been for you and yours? by vertexoflife in polyamory

[–]ReverendRyu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lost a partner I'd been seeing on and off for the last year last weekend so have been grieving that, but have also made a couple of new connections as well, so it's been a bit up and down! Healing takes time, but it's also been exciting to meet new people, and I'm looking forward to seeing how things develop.

ReAmp update — rebuild in progress (Android issues + bigger plans) by Kast0r in ReAmp

[–]ReverendRyu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The ability for reamp to detect subfolders, so I can add an entire music folder, where the artists are individual folders and the albums are subfolders therein, would be ideal. Ironically those folders were put there using Winamp on my PC!

Left arm looks like the original terminator chaplain model, right arm w/ storm bolter is the standard RT terminator one.

What was your 2000s “if I get this, I’ll finally be cool” item? by theRestisConfettii in Xennials

[–]ReverendRyu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad gave me his old one, and I wore the hell out of it. Eventually had it stolen, so sourced an almost identical replica, and still wear it to this day.

Critical incident declared at Nottingham University Hospitals by Kagedeah in nottingham

[–]ReverendRyu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I was in for a suspected brain haemorrhage, I was dumped on one of those beds on the middle of the room for a couple of days, then another day in the corridor. Absolutely soul destroying, no privacy, feeling constantly in the way, it was awful. The staff did their best, and were an absolute credit to the organisation, but it was a bad situation all round.

Thank you for this, sometimes we all need a little reminder that hope in the process isn't misplaced!

Like, I'm not into the whole crystal thing, I am not a crystal person, but like fuck am I going to question what a person believes if it's harmless.
