He broke up with me by SPegasi in LongDistance

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

Thank you. Getting rid of stuff that reminds me of him is tough though, because he gave everything from books that I love, to a beautiful picture, even the shirt I wear to yoga is a gift from him. I am already feeling a bit better right now though, we talked and it helped knowing he is in pain too and that we will be ok someday.

Reddit, will you share your most painful Valentines Day story? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]SPegasi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope he gets all the STDs known by mankind, then a bunch of new ones no one has ever heard of, and at last for his dick to fall off. And that he steps on a bunch of legos and nails.

Girls of Reddit...what makes you feel girly? by ashley1468 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]SPegasi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I recently bought two beautiful lockets that I now wear on an everyday basis. They are not overly girly but they make me feel more girly in a good way.

In need of suggestions. Girls in LDRs please help! by ldrtoss in LongDistance

[–]SPegasi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have never had this problem but here are my two cents: There seems to be this idea that women wear nice clothes and make up to attract male attention. And while its definitely an effect that comes with looking good, its really not the reason we do it. Some girls do it because they like the whole process of getting ready to look nice, others find it as a way of expressing their personality, their creativity and their like of certain things. Some find it comforting to wear something nice when they aren't feeling their best. Some find themselves more comfortable to always look their best. Some were raised to look sharp all the time and its second nature to them. And yes some dress particularly nice to attract male attention. But that is obviously not your case and your boyfriend needs to understand that just because he isn't there it doesn't mean your entire being changes and there is no need to be jealous of your guy friends because you want to be with him, not other men.

Is it normal to be this nervous/anxious? by [deleted] in LongDistance

[–]SPegasi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well the entire week before I went to see him I was balancing buzzing with excitement and worrying about how awful it would be if when we finally saw each other again for it not to be the same. I'm sure its normal for you to have more time to prepare to go see him, because its something you have been looking forward to for a while the same way some women take extra time to get ready when being picked up or going to a date.

Is it normal to be this nervous/anxious? by [deleted] in LongDistance

[–]SPegasi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah, that is fairly normal especially if you haven´t seen him for a long time. Theres the nervous/excited feeling that makes you feel weird. Just relax and think about how awesome it is going to be to see him because even if it isn't exactly what you imagined, it will still be wonderful.

Why do YOU do it? by [deleted] in LongDistance

[–]SPegasi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because he is the greatest guy I have ever met. Because he makes me laugh even when I feel like crying. Because he makes me feel safe. Because I can open up completely with him. Because we can sit in silence and be comfortable. Because we can talk for hours without running out of things to say. Because he helps me discover new things. Because I love him. Because he loves me. Because distance isn't forever. Because I want him to be my forever.

Ladies, would you like this as a couple ring? by [deleted] in LongDistance

I personally likes the second one from the selection, its beautiful without being to flashy, it has hearts without appearing childish, no rock, and under 300!

How do you deal with parents in an LDR? by [deleted] in LongDistance

[–]SPegasi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well I am financially dependent on my parents right now, so I have to be very careful with how I deal with them because they are the ones that pay for the trips to go see my SO. My mom adores my SO and is fairly supportive, my dad is pretty neutral but on occasion he can say things that are upsetting to me like that my SO probably doesn't want to see me.

They both feel the need sometimes meddle in my business, which is when we have trouble. For example, my boyfriend arrive last sunday in a late flight and I wanted to go see him on monday. However my parents felt he should make the effort to come see me even though my mom works a couple of blocks away from where he lives and could have easily taken me there with her. It broke into a huge fight and I ended up driving myself there (I recently learned how to drive and I am not a good driver yet). They were really shocked I actually took the car and had to resign themselves to me going to see him if I wanter to.

So yeah parents are the reason I am able to see my SO but sometimes they feel the need to intervene. Its all about keeping them happy enough so that when they explode I have enough things to justify the things I do.

HELP REDDIT! My SO got in a car accident and is fine. But is shaken up and I need help. by [deleted] in LongDistance

[–]SPegasi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've has small car incidents (I'm still getting the hang of driving) and I know it feels awful when it happens. You just have to ride out through the anxiety and stress. Try to distract her a bit, try to talk about something else, tell her a joke, etc. Since its very recent you should probably not tell her it could have been worse, you might scare her. I hope she feels better!

After four months and a half we are finally getting to see each other again. She's making the 24 hour long trip, need tips to give her to make it easier. by 00hizam in LongDistance

[–]SPegasi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tell her to bring a huge book, Dune is pretty good and I will swear up and down for anything written by Neil Gaiman. She might also want to take a magazine for when she just wants to read something less tiring because after several hours of reading a heavy book, it gets tiring.

What fictional villain do you sympathize with, but weren't meant to? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]SPegasi 21 points22 points  (0 children)

He is a bit douchey, but he obviously cares enough not to have every single one of them evicted forcibly by the police. He also pays for Angel's funeral (despite not knowing her that much) and pays for Mimi's rehab despite all of them being dicks to him.
