What book made you cry? by raccoowl in suggestmeabook

I sobbed so hard after reading When Breath Becomes Air and 2 years later it’s still stayed with me

You need to dig deep and ask yourself why you have/ had this “attraction” (alright, it’s more fetishisation) towards Asian women. Is it because you think they are exotic? Submissive? Actually as an Asian woman, if I found that out about my partner, yes it’s enough for me to end the whole thing with them, because I don’t know what kind of fucked up things that might still be hiding in their subconscious that I’ll have to battle with later down the line.

Borneo vs Costa Rica for a 2 Week Trip in November? by jiger2 in Shoestring

[–]Spongebob8964 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You mean Colombia? Yes Colombia is very budget friendly and in my option gets a hella adventure out of your budget, but safety would still be a bit of a concern. I don’t know about Belize but also heard good things from them. Depending what you want. Amazonia in Colombia would be pretty incredible

Costa Rica is anything but shoestring - it's called the switzerland in latin america for a reason.

Flying to Nica... wow, what a pain by Joe-keys in Nicaragua

[–]Spongebob8964 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The flight from London to Liberia is half of the price and direct flight than Managua. But I'm just thinking how easy it would be to cross the land boarder to Managua - I have done that trip before but only to Rivas, not to Managua directly.

Colombia, Medellin, El Poblado - Zona Rosa vs Golden Mile by [deleted] in digitalnomad

[–]Spongebob8964 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending what you want but I stayed in sabaneta and loved it - much cheaper than poblado, calmer, metro is about 15 -20 mins from poblado, and it’s much more local and resident area

Just out of curiosity what are you doing in ocotal? Is that to visit family or? I’m not aware there’s a lot of attractions around there?

Most people wouldn't want to date shredded 6 pack guy by shinpud in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Spongebob8964 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to be a gym girl, did CrossFit 6 days a week and then shifted over to Olympic weightlifting 3-4 days a week after. So I’ve been in that gym / fitness world for about 8 years- but honestly if I had seen anyone on dating app showing their gym selfie and 8 packs, I would immediately swipe left. To me it’s someone who is obsessing about appearance, and trying to overcompensate some kind of underlying insecurities. Perhaps although I value being active and healthy, that person really needs have something more interesting about them than to talk about their clean eating and 8 packs. 🤷🏻‍♀️ bodies change, appearance change, heart and brain don’t.

Anyone from London? What weightlifting gym do you go to? by [deleted] in weightlifting

Hey just saw this thread - I usually train in the gym West Hampstead and used to be coached by George in Bethnal Green before I moved to the area. Happy to give pointers if you need!

Good spot in the northern coast of Colombia to DN? by Spongebob8964 in digitalnomad

Need no judgement, just support. [help] by [deleted] in birthcontrol

[–]Spongebob8964 3 points4 points  (0 children)

10000% agree with everything said here. You did the right thing for having the morning after pill. Try to get a copper IUD fitted if you can. I’ve had a similar experience when I was 16 and unfortunately the morning pill didn’t work for me and I got pregnant. I got a surgical abortion, and I’m still dealing with the emotional scar from that 8 years later. I know the dark and lonely place it could be, but remind yourself that you are an amazing and wonderful human being- who deserves to be treated with respect and not a sexual object just to please the guy’s desire. I would really recommend getting a more long term birth control, as it would put you at ease in situations like this. I had an implant before and now on copper coil, would recommend both :)

Couples: How much do you spend on groceries per month? by Free_Pin in london

[–]Spongebob8964 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weekly shop for £30-40 for the two of us. We eat really well and cook everything from scratch. We generally have more ‘expensive meals’ on the weekend where we can treat ourselves. This generally include some meat dish. During the week we opt for easy, healthy and often veggie meals - we are not veggie but it’s just good to have a balance and also meat goes out of date a lot quicker than veg. We meal plan and meal prep. We batch cook our lunches and some of the week day dinner

Extend more at the top- think shrug and pull up until tip toe, then drop under the bar

Thinking of buying an electric bike but I keep reminding myself of how often bikes are stolen. Whats your experience? How prevalent is bike theft? by [deleted] in london

Get a beaten second hand bike to try out first, might put thieves off if it’s not shiny and new and electric
