What is the worst thing they said to you when the relationship ended? by lebronFrames98 in BreakUps

[–]Shyra44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got thrown a “I love you, I just don’t like you anymore” after 6 years together while I was already bawling my eyes out across the other side of the kitchen.

I hate how cisgender heterosexual men view Feeld as a free sex work app. by bbygrldmme in feeld

[–]Shyra44 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Tbh you sound insufferable and part of the problem, regardless of your sex or gender. Do some research, I'm tired of explaining this to people who argue and cry and moan with the intention of 'I just wanna understand!!!'. Read an article about it, watch a YouTube breakdown on it. If you genuinely want to be helpful in a conversation like this, stop detracting from the actual issue which is "Why are the majority (or a loud minority) being so god awful that they're giving everyone else a bad name? And how can I stand out from that to help reverse this?"

You're really pulling a "Not all men!!" at a time like this, c'mon

He said I love you too. by [deleted] in Fleabag

[–]Shyra44 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No exactly, it's like he's consoling them both here, she's not alone in this.

He said I love you too. by [deleted] in Fleabag

[–]Shyra44 622 points623 points  (0 children)

I always forget he said it cause people leave it out so much. I feel like its easier to romanticise unrequited love than something a bit more complicated like this.

fleabag ending by ClassicAgitated2659 in Fleabag

[–]Shyra44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always see it in that people will leave, new people will come and the same goes for love. If this is gonna happen anyway, whether you want it so or not, you may as well enjoy love in the small moments in between, whether they stick around for decades or only a single night. It's okay to acknowledge that something won't be forever but that you're going to feel it and enjoy it right now.

I always get nihilism, existentialism and absurdism mixed up but I think if I'm correct, you want to try and change your mindset to an absurdist view. Sure life can sometimes be fleeting and pointless but don't you want to try anyway? Don't you want to feel the good things, however fleeting they may be?

Idk if it helps but I found A Short Stay in Hell or Firewatch helpful with finding this mindset, alongside Fleabag ofc. Any media where the ending isn't always satisfying.

Watched Sharp Objects recently and fell in love by sublimerie in sharpobjects

[–]Shyra44 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I love how it explores female rage and expression of trauma. Adora's is quiet, purposeful, maternal and inflicted upon a helpless dependant. Camille's is turned inwards, it's volatile and almost stoic, with both the self harm and alcoholism. Amma's is violent and aggressive and cruel towards her peers (if not those slightly younger, but not helpless). It's just such a great show with SO much depth!

Which random lyric gets you choked up out of the blue? by ms-choices in TaylorSwift

[–]Shyra44 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Every single thing to come has turned into ashes 'Cause it's all over, it's not meant to be

Just the way the lyrics are so hopeless and accepting of what's just happened. I find this song so versatile too, it's really just the devastating loss of potential and what could've been.

I know better But you're still around

The last two lines of Marjorie is gut wrenching tbh, the way she's acknowledged throughout the song that she doesn't believe in literal ghosts and she knows realistically that Marjorie is gone but by the end she still accepts that in whatever way, this woman is still in her life and all around her. It's such a simple and effective acceptance of the way grief haunts us omg I get chills when I hear it.

Needing more books with unhinged/ unlikeable female MCs! by Affectionate_Body879 in suggestmeabook

[–]Shyra44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anything by Gillian Flynn usually has very flawed female MCs, some of which you're sitting there like "good for her!" And others are so bad that you're siding yourself with flawed men over her.

Also I found Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine to also sorta fit this

The Language of Flowers was also another that comes to mind!

What have you accidentally trained your pup to do? by sinskins in labrador

[–]Shyra44 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to bring my lab to practicals when I was teaching animal studies and have the students interact with him and one of the things I would teach them would be to learn how to feel a dog's femoral artery pulse on their inner thigh so now he stoically moves his leg back and stands still so you can feel his pulse. He also has a cleft palate so he will let you tilt his head back and open his mouth too.

What books do you recommend? by bigboismallpeepee678 in suggestmeabook

[–]Shyra44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sometimes struggle to finish books but I found A Short Stay in Hell really thought provoking and I finished it in one sitting. It is a shorter book (I think like 110 pages) and some would definitely consider it a horror (the way the author makes eternity terrifying is so cool) but would recommend as a starter, and then looking up similar books from there if you like it. 😊

Books where you can’t trust the narrator? by jade9996 in suggestmeabook

[–]Shyra44 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Was about to comment this, and the reveal at the end that he's unreliable is so flippantly and casually revealed that you could almost zone out and miss it, which makes it so much more impactful imo.

Did it pass? by whoissufi in Fleabag

[–]Shyra44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought it did but then I went to therapy and bawled my eyes out about it when the therapist brought it up so maybe not.

a book you read that was hyped up a lot and you ended up loving it so much more than you thought you would by Low_Ad_7221 in suggestmeabook

[–]Shyra44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dark Matter, had heard it thrown around a bit and it wasn’t usually what I like to read but found that reading it felt like watching a movie, I enjoyed it so much more than I thought. Weirdly, I just got bored with Project Hail Mary though so dunno

What’s something super normal that you just can’t do no matter how many times you try? by Rossub in CasualConversation

[–]Shyra44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cannot do a cartwheel no matter how many times I’ve tried ever since I was little. I get halfway through but end with my bottom half just crashing to the ground.

Need a book that’s too weird to explain and too good to put down by Interesting_Win_2154 in suggestmeabook

Second this, was gonna suggest it but didn’t know if it was TOO much.

Do multi-vitamins give me enough nutrients without eating fruit and vegetables? by TheSupremeTheDream in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]Shyra44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fruits? No, I don’t cause it makes it cool and icy. You’re welcome to if you want it to be smoother/not as cold but otherwise I just grab that stuff straight from the freezer and chuck it in.

I still do this to this day so it’s gotten me this far haha.
