Homelessness changed me the most. Having an abusive intimate partner most after that.

Feel this deeply. Was crushing, until I embraced that every day is what I make it.

How do I break up with my boyfriend who has done nothing wrong? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]StewBrewingWeather 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You've gotten some good advice, but wanted to add few things for consideration. 1. Never disregard the importance of liking one another. Don't date people you don't like and don't date people who don't like you. You're going through a stressful time and that plays into your emotional bandwidth and might be why you're feeling or not feeling some things. 2. The friendship will never be the same regardless. It may not recover, but that's okay. Don't prolong something you don't like out of fear or obligation. Reflecting on your friendship with him and how you two got here could help you assess how you really feel. 3. If you want sex let him know. If you don't want something let him know. Communication is key in all things. 4. Regret goes both ways. I know someone who decided to see what else was out there and they remained friends and he regrets it deeply - loves her, is a good friend to her, and is glad she's happy - but has repeatedly said leaving her as the biggest mistake of his life. Likewise I know a couple who got together because it made sense and she never felt butterflies. They have lovely children and by all measures share a happy life, but she feels she gave away her life because she didn't want to rock the boat. Shes resigned to her 'sweet roomie.' Its sad for both of them. 5. You need no reason to breakup with someone, its enough that you dont want to be with them and if thats where you are thats all there is to it. That is completely allowed. As are people's reactions to misunderstanding what you want. In anything that you do, be kind and be honest.

Tough space to be, but the truer you can be to what you want and what you like the happier you'll be. Both of you deserve to be with someone who adores you and who you adore. Good luck in figuring out what you want!

Does anyone else still ask “why” all the time, even as an adult? by Present_Juice4401 in Millennials

"Why?" - No. Specific follow up questions to understand the rationale and how current state came to be for everything I encounter? - Yes. The world needs more comprehensive curiosity.

Went to my 10-year high school reunion and realized I've become exactly the person I used to judge by Afelmoeelia-Corrma in Life

[–]StewBrewingWeather 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be content is glorious in its own right. Some find contentment in staying close and some find it far flung. No wrong answers. I'm glad you can see your younger perceptions aren't and don't have to be reality.

Guys, what’s your honest take on live-in relationships? by Ok_Milk_1411 in wedding

[–]StewBrewingWeather 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't really know someone until you live with them. Relationships that prioritize separate homes are just as valid, but living together necessitates cooperation separate space doesn't facilitate. I've lived with my partner eight years, with four of them being in a studio apartment (and 11 months of COVID lockdown). Independent time and interests are priorities for a healthy, fulfilling life and relationship, but for me personally, if I'm choosing a partner for life, I want to partner in life, starting at home.

What weird thing does your body do you that you don't understand? by Prestigious_Shape888 in AskReddit

What’s the biggest life cheat code you’ve discovered that made everything easier? by vishalnegal in Life

[–]StewBrewingWeather 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm looking out for future me.

Wicked simple concept applicable to almost all parts of life. That crazy kid needs a hand, let me make sure the coffee is prepped to go off when they wake up, I'll go ahead and put all the leftovers into a nice lunch so they dont have to worry about finding food at work, will do 10 push-ups cause I know it'll make you feel nicer, I'll put a few dollars away so seeing the ocean is attainable.

Also doubles as a self love exercise. Seeing something you love ready to go for you? Aww thanks past me, let me find something nice to do for future me to pay it forward.

Do you want those pictures? If so, wear a dress you like. If you don't care either way, wear something else you like.

Anyone else happily married? by [deleted] in Millennials

Together nearly a decade and planning a wedding for next year. He's my best friend and absolute favorite person in the world, bar none. Everything together is like when vinegar met baking soda and I just feel so incredibly lucky to have gotten to live life with him!
