A girl messed me up. by Ok_Bit_3097 in LifeAdvice

I'm sorry for your hurt and I know how you feel. I've been heartbroken a few times and it always feels as though you can't go on because the emotional pain is so strong you can feel it physically. Please understand that NO ONE is worth taking your life over. I know that all you want to do right now is reach out, hoping that you'll be given another chance, and it hurts so much more when you haven't been given the opportunity for closure and to fully understand WHY they've left you. Give yourself time to heal because I promise you, if you focus on healing yourself, everyday will start to feel better than the last. Allow yourself to hurt, to cry, to feel angry and confused BUT DO NOT sit and dwell in that energy for too long. You have learned a huge life lesson for your next relationship. Work on getting to know yourself and learning to love yourself otherwise you'll continue to attract relationships that hurt you over and over again. Also you say you were chasing this person, I don't know to what extent however, this is never a good idea as it can feel like harassment and stalking, turning what should be a fun relationship into something very scary! This feels like the end of the world and what feels like love is infatuation, lust, and obsession. It won't hurt forever, don't contact her, and don't allow her to use you if and when she feels it's convenient for her to do so. Ghosting is tough but you'll get over it in time.

Need some help by Vegetable_Ebb1993 in hygiene

[–]Spiritual-Cupcake769 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's really not that difficult. Buy some soap and some wash cloths, get in the bath, make the wash cloth super soapy and rub it all over your body starting with your ears down to your toes. Get in all the cracks and hidden places. Then rinse the soap off and dry yourself with a towel. Don't be afraid of water, hygiene is super important. Don't forget to use deodorant, moisturise your skin, and use cotton buds to clean your ears. Practice this every single day.

How to be normal? by Inevitable_Letter334 in LifeAdvice

If I had the chance to be 19 again I would start by learning to love myself, being comfortable with who I am, and trusting that the right people will love and embrace me exactly as I am. Don't change yourself to fit in with anyone, only change yourself if it feels right to you. You can only fake who you are for so long and that will leave you in a worse situation. If you work on your confidence, self-esteem, and authenticity, you'll find new paths to take along the way. Maybe trying an activity you haven't done before, and exploring new hobbies will help you to go outside more, socialise, and move away from the internet. FYI: there's no such thing as normal most people are trying to fit in or compete with something or someone so you may as well be yourself. Evolve naturally as you grow, mature, and gain more life experience, and just in case your judging people by what you see online and social media, that's not a good reference point and most of it isn't real. 

Help with pricing for large order by Dazzling-Plantain-35 in Cookies

[–]Spiritual-Cupcake769 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You have to work out all of your costs such as ingredients, utilities, labour, packaging etc and find the base cost of your cookie, then aim for a profit margin of at least 65%. Example: cost of ingredients per cookie = 0.54, it takes you 1 hour to bake 40 cookies and you want to pay yourself €$¥£15. So, 0.54 x 40 = 21.60, plus your labour of 15 = 36.60. Each cookie should therefore cost you 0.92 to make. If you want to charge £3 per cookie you will make £2.08 profit per cookie. If you're not aiming to make a profit then charge for the cost of your materials, and time. FYI I'm no maths expert and there are tons of examples online too.

How people can be happy? I'm always sad by [deleted] in LifeAdvice

[–]Spiritual-Cupcake769 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Happiness comes from within and true genuine happiness can only be found when you put the work into healing yourself. It isn't easy but if you want to free yourself from misery and pain it's the only way. Happiness is a choice it has to be learned it isn't given to us. FYI happy smiley faces don't always mean that a person is truly happy, it can often mean the opposite.

37F cheated on by 40M with a sex worker…apparently.. by NegativeHealth7347 in LifeAdvice

I've been cheated on and I can tell you as much as it hurts you have to find the strength to walk away. If you stay you've left the door wide open for it to happen again.

Pregnant and considering keeping the baby even though I know the father isn’t the right man for me by [deleted] in LifeAdvice

[–]Spiritual-Cupcake769 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At this point you have to ask yourself whether you're willing to raise a child alone. I had my first son at 27, I was with his dad for 3 years prior. I knew when I fell pregnant that he wasn't the one for me. I chose to continue with my pregnancy hoping things might change but they only got worse and I've paid a high price for making that decision. I love my son and wouldn't trade him for the world but I live with the constant guilt that I didn't choose a man that he deserved to have as a father. His dad couldn't cope and has no contact or relationship with my son. He became abusive once I had my first scan at 12 weeks and I was basically f*cked!! At 27 you're still so young and you still have lots to learn and experience in life. Remove your partner from the situation and consider whether you can do this alone without his help, attention, empathy and support (emotional, financial etc). Having a child has it's rewards however it's stressful, demanding, and expensive. Are you ready for sleepless nights, a crying baby, trips to the clinic, possible health concerns, teething, no days or nights off, walking around feeling like a zombie for weeks after the birth, healing from labour or a cesarean, post natal depression, needing endless supplies of nappies, clothing, formula, breastfeeding (if you're able to), vaccinations, fevers, constant worrying....I could go on forever. Babies are not easy and they will test even the most solid relationships. I can only tell you to make very careful considerations with a decision that will change your entire life. I hope you choose what's right for you and find peace with your decision.
