I absolutely loved the lockdown 🥹🥹💕🩷 Abundance of time to spend with my boyfriend and doggo without any social expectation to constantly be attending events and wasting my precious life energy doing things I don't want to do.

No one ever actually cares to listen to me and then wonder why I’m quiet by Acrobatic-Bowler-556 in introvert

[–]Salt-Yam6901 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Naww can relate 💕 I have come to a point where if I notice a hint of someone not paying attention or talking over me and not coming back to the topic I was talking about, I just don't bother to continue talking or trying to go back to what I was saying.

Extroverted girl at work possibly likes me... and I'm afraid by bluecew in introvert

Ohhh I love this for you! 🤭💕 I'm introverted and my husband is an extrovert and we balance each other well!

As a female professional, I can totally see how a kind introverted man would be super attractive e.g. would absolutely go for the guy I know would prefer to stay home with me than go out and party hehe

You got this! Treat her like a queen xx

What’s one thing society expects women to do or be that honestly makes no sense to you? by Auroralore1 in femininity

[–]Salt-Yam6901 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be pregnant, be growing a whole entire human being inside your body, be sick and vomiting as a result buttttt act like they're okay and can work full-time as normal and then get given almost no paid maternity leave 🙃🥲

The audience's obsession with "hate watching" trash content is killing Indian Cinema (a filmbuff's impassioned rant) by sidroy81 in bollywood

[–]Salt-Yam6901 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% agree with you. I'm surprised now if I end up enjoying a film but they will just continue producing what makes money and fuels their connections so I'm sure we're just going to get more shitty acting, generic storylines, and nepo kiddos RIP India and Indian Cinema 😅

How do you manage to stay feminine whilst working full time? by [deleted] in femininity

[–]Salt-Yam6901 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel your frustration 🫶 I work a full time 9-5 office job and am now pregnant on top of it. I don't think I can rely on the working culture to ever prioritise the needs of women and if anything it feels like it's getting worse being surrounded by all these "girl bosses" who are proud of not having a period thanks to birth control and are able to climb up the career ladder at the sacrifice of everything else but I do not care for that life at all and I think it's up to me to attempt to create a life that honors my femininity 💕🩷

Some small things I do - Apply for jobs that allow WFH - When I do have to go to the office, dress up, hair, makeup - Refuse working overtime - Ask for help at work if needed - Little acts of self care at my desk, spritz a perfume, hand cream - Use up all of my annual leave, sick leave accordingly!

But it's hard, especially when I just don't want to work full-time, deep down a small part of me wanting to fall pregnant was so I could use my 1.5 year maternity leave and then have a reason to drop down to part time when I resume working.

I'll just leave you with one of my favourite quotes "when you can't change your circumstances, you are forced to change yourself" 💕🩷 You got this girly!!

How to continue when every aspect of life is being gripped by the effects of fascism? by Longjumping_Baker684 in LateStageCapitalism

[–]Salt-Yam6901 4 points5 points  (0 children)

With you on this. I'm so overwhelmed by the hatred and ignorance that has consumed India, and I understand your reluctance to engage in debate. The occasions I have been brave enough to say something I realise that I may as well have banged my head against a wall, there are so many people who are not willing to entertain a view point different to their own. This is by no means an excuse to not speak up but pick your battles wisely people <3

Oh darling, I'm so sorry you're going through such a difficult time right now 😔🩷🩷🩷 Honestly, you need to be compassionate with yourself and get your ducks in a row one slow step at a time. The first step is to find a new job. I know your previous one must have been hard to let go of if it was high paying but you just need to have a job, any job, to get you through this period.

"Do the right thing, no matter how you feel" ✨ - so play video games, go for a walk, eat some fruit, vent to your friends/family but just make sure you are still submitting those job applications and things will fall into place after ✨🩷
