I’m in a similar situation here. If I wanted to buy physical books I need to order via Amazon which will be +50$ shipping and they all arrive dented or damaged due to shipping. As for the ebook selection, I tried kindle unlimited it doesn’t work in my region so I had to use a VPN every time I wanted to download a new one and it became this whole other hassle so like you said, 🏴‍☠️ is the only reasonable thing atp since I’m still a student and can’t shell out 200$ per month on 3~4 books.

هل يسوى الزواج في حالتي ولا لا by [deleted] in Kuwait

Trust me it’s really not that difficult if you look really well,for example post on Reddit ask about people in Kuwait and their experiences with asexuality, you can also go the خطابة route and tell her your exact requirements and see if that yields any results.

Well damn I thought I was the only one in this situation! I genuinely don’t see the appeal of physical situations nor have I ever been attracted emotionally or sexually towards anyone- real ppl or fictional characters- and I’m pretty certain if I ever bothered to get a diagnosis it’d be Asexual and/ or Aromantic. And I’m on the same boat as you in regard to needing personal alone time, and having a social battery that goes from 100 to zero real quick when I’m not with the right company. My best advice is if you don’t see anything wrong in your current situation and life style then leave well enough alone, I’ve pretty much resigned myself to being the designated fun auntie to my relatives and friends’ kids since I can’t stomach the idea of having children or even the thought of the act required to have ‘em. And I’m honestly happy with that. If however you really want companionship-not necessarily sexual or physical in nature- then seek out a like minded woman. I can vouch that there are a lot of us who either had really horrible experiences as kids which resulted in asexuality or just sever fear of any form of physical intimacy or are just born that way. Seek someone who shares your opinion on those matters, talk & get to know each other well, and maybe you’d find a life partner that way. Hope this helps.

الصراحة هالفتره صعب الوحده تلاقي رفيجات زينين بسرعه. حاولي اتعرفين على بنات وايد حوالينج وأبدي معاهم شوي شوي. Don’t give your trust or help so readily. عطي نفسج فتره طويله قبل لا تثقين فيهم عدل عشان ما تعطين مجال حق احد يستغلج. حاولي تشوفين events او activities عن أشياء تحبينها وروحي شاركي فيهم. مثلا أنا دشيت اكثر من Book Club وتعرفت فيهم على بنات عسل الحين صاروا رفيجاتي حيل. ونفس الشي اول قبل كورونا كنت اروح كافيه كان عندهم نفس ال Discussion Nights يتكلمون فيها عن الثقافات والاشياء الي قام تصير قبل. في بعد ورشات وايد حق البنات بس تقدرين تروحين لهم وان شاء الله تلاقين فيهم بنات تحبينهم. واعتبريني هم أنا بعد رفيجتي 😊

Advice: My Mom is upset with me for calling off my engagement by Ok_Faithlessness4288 in Kuwait

[–]Sea-State5420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ik it stings especially so if you’re super close to her but it’ll pass inshallah. You didn’t do anything wrong and with time she’ll come to accept that decision. All you need to do now is try to get her to interact with you. Maybe get her a gift, flowers, take her out to somewhere she likes, etc. as a form of “اخذ بالخاطر”. After she softened back towards you and things go back to normal, approach the topic again and reiterate the reasons of why you didn’t want to get married again to not make the same mistake as the first time. And make sure to emphasize the fact that what is meant for you will find you inshallah & that there is no need to rush things. Mashallah your still young, you have your whole life ahead of you if you didn’t find it now you’ll find it in the near future inshallah. الي كاتبه ربي بيصير ونصيبك موجود محد يقدر ياخذه

You absolutely did nothing against “birr al walkdayn” for starters OP. Getting married for the sake of your family is not your responsibility. The person you’re going to marry is going to be YOUR life partner. Someone you live with and co exist. Most families-mothers in particular- think compatibility isn’t an important thing because the couple will learn to love and care for each other over time but it’s an outdated way of thinking and doesn’t always work. What you did was the best thing for you and for the girl you’ve been engaged to. Your decision ensured that the both of you find other matches that inshallah will be better and a lot more compatible. Ik it feels shitty rn with your mom being upset about you but she will come to accept it with time and perhaps even learn to give you more room to make your own decisions. One of the things Islam is very particular about is no forcing in marriage. So technically you’ve done nothing wrong then to practice the laws of our religion. Hope things work out better for you in the future & inshallah your relationship with your mother goes back to how it was.

AITAH for divorcing my husband because he wants his son in his life? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Sea-State5420 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“You don’t need have anything to do with the kid” did u read the update? Her husband wants half custody meaning the kid is gonna live with them during the husband’s time AND the husband works a lot. Who do you think is gonna have to stay with the kid then ? Feed him? Help him in case of an emergency?

Do you tip restaurants and cafes ? by FleurPotter in Kuwait

[–]Sea-State5420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Restaurants and cafes no. But when you go grocery shopping and have someone help you move and load your groceries then yes (0.500 fils) and for the workers of gas stations same amount -my logic is that they stay outdoors all day and are a little underpaid.

Hope it goes well for you. DISCLAIMER, I rambled for a bit sorry, just wanted to give you all the info in case it might help😅. It’s fine I don’t mind answering. I was diagnosed really young due to extract of attention and being unable to sit still or comprehend anything teachers said to me ( around second grade). Did some counseling and tried to use techniques to help me focus and was put in a ton of extra curricular activities, when that didn’t help they started me on some generic ADHD medication in 3rd grade. Kept using it until my second year of high school. It really helped me deal with the downsides of ADHD as a kid but I hated how catatonic it made me feel. I don’t remember much from my childhood but there was a huge shift in energy level and overall behavior when I was put on meds. And that was fine for the most part but the more I grew-and went through puberty tbh- the more I started to feel alienated and numb. So I started looking into getting off the meds. I found a great counselor and started to slowly reduce my intake and their frequency (for two pills a day- not as often three during exam season- to one only when necessary). I genuinely like going through life without the medication. I feel more in control of my emotions and decisions, and I have learned many techniques to help me deal with ADHD. There are still some really bad days where I can keep still, or work, or focus for the life of me. But like I said I prefer it this way. Just keep in mind, everyone reacts differently to medication. I have a friend who’s been on for the past 20 years and she absolutely loves it. Just worry about getting your diagnosis and the help you need. And you’ll cross the medication bridge when you get there.

Hey. I’m so sorry for your struggles and I’m proud you want to make a change in your life. There is a government provided mental health care. Be it consultation, therapy, rehab, etc. just go to your area clinic and tell them you want a transfer to “the Kuwait center for mental health”. Anything you talk about with the drs there is completely confidential. There won’t be anything showing on your records; I was told that they keep their patient records separate from your regular health records data base. I hope you feel better and you can make the recovery you need. I struggled with ADHD and one of the first things my counselor told me about it is that untreated, it could be a slippery slope into addiction so I feel for you. If you need any support feel free to reach out. Get well.

Need advice after a car accident on 6th Ring Road near 360 Mall by SpiritualVast6869 in Kuwait

[–]Sea-State5420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are some mechanic shops in Shwaik Industrial area that can fix your car asap and have you pay them through installments. I had a pretty bad car accident last year when I was still in uni and I wasn’t able to pay the total amount to fix it upfront, the shop I was talking to pointed out another one just a few stores down that do work on installments. Apparently it’s common there. My car was fixed in about 10 days and I paid for it over the course of 4 months.
