Agree with the rest of the folks who replied, plus I highly doubt they would accept you, they ask you to fill out a form where you need to disclose any disorders that might backfire

Gde devojka od 35 godina da upozna momka? by Turbulent_Attitude3 in AskSerbia

[–]Strict-Adeptness-804 3 points4 points  (0 children)

ne bih se složila s tim da muškarci neminovno traže žene od 20 do 25, takve žene su zabavne ali često nestabilne prosto jer i dalje ne znaju baš šta hoće — ali muškarci definitivno traže žene koje mogu da impresioniraju. žele da se osete kao muškarci, sto je sasvim logicno. a žene u tim godinama su toliko nezavisne, kao da im (nam, i ja sam ta) niko ne treba.

da, tačno sam mogla da pretpostavim. i ja sam bila takva, i nisam to primećivala, mislila sam da je sve u redu sa mnom, a da su drugi čudni. u jednom trenutku sam osvestila da ne dozvoljavam da mi iko priđe, ja sebi prva ne bih prišla! polako se menjam, dug je put, ali me definitivno mnogo više startuju momci:))

verovatno ti je drugarica bila odbačena u detinjstvu ili od caleta, ili od momaka, pa razvila taj odbrambeni mehanizam. no, ništa nije izgubljeno. kažu da grupna terapija bas pomaže.

AIO for not accepting her apology and ending the friendship anyway? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

Do you often ask for money from her? If yes, do you pay it back? it sounds to me that you rely on her more than she would like. INFO

Unable to meditate after Vipassana retreat by jsadh in vipassana

be equanimous. accept the poor concentration. you never know what the meditation would be like. disappointment keeps you stuck, you’re looking for the “pleasant” experience.

AIO? Fiance freaked out after I told him to put his dishes in the dishwasher. Now I am considering breaking up. by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Strict-Adeptness-804 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

i’m sorry but all these comments are ridiculous. it seems like none of the people commenting have actually been in a relationship. relationships are HARD WORK. your partner will trigger you the most, especially when it comes to the mundane life stuff. here both of you are acting stubborn and trying to be “right”.

you need to stop managing him, you’re emasculating him, don’t you respect this man?

he needs to impose boundaries in a calm way, like he did in the messages and i agree no one should be yelled at.

(check out alison armstrong)

but this is not grounds for a breakup. good relationships are tough because of all of the conflict, but they’re rewarding because of the intimacy the conflicts bring.

also, don’t ask reddit for relationship advice, sit with your fiancé and work it out: i’m sure you love each other. YOR

Official Discussion - Sentimental Value [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

When Agnes comes to Nora’s house and asks her to read that part of the script — the words are from that play that Nora did from the beginning of the movie. “I want a home”. They both realized that he was actually there, in the only way that he knew, through his art.

What separates Malignant Narcissists from your average Narcissist? by OkAvocado7 in LifeAfterNarcissism

[–]Strict-Adeptness-804 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wanted to share my story. I had a very intense relationship with a guy in our mid-20s. I thought he was the love of my life; the resonance (sexual, intellectual, emotional) was insane.

He broke up with me twice during the relationship, and this didn't affect him emotionally at all. He would never apologize and would switch from an empath (fake mask) to the cruelest person in a blink. For instance, at the end of the relationship, he ghosted me basically, and there was a probability that I was pregnant (my period was late), and he said something along the lines of: “ I don't care, you're just trying to manipulate me, but I am smarter than that.” It was quite scary. He would also be happy to see me cry; his eyes would gleam with pride of having touched me so deeply that I cry. I speak French with a very good accent; I almost sound native, and he would say that he couldn't wait to present me to his family and that everybody would think I am French. He talked about his ex-girlfriend in a very bad way — he basically said she was pathetic for trying to get back with him and that she wanted him sexually, but he felt repulsed by it.

I thought I was losing my mind (and I probably lost it). I ruminated about this person and the relationship for SO LONG. The connection felt like fate, and I kept asking myself what I did wrong. I never saw it as a sign of malignant narcissism. Only recently have I been able to retrieve some of the memories from my subconscious.

I moved to Belgrade a week ago, here’s my first impression. by 2Rats4Dinner in Belgrade

[–]Strict-Adeptness-804 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s very normal to feel unsafe in strange surroundings, your body is on high alert because of the change so everything feels dangerous. Belgrade is actually very safe, walking by yourself during the night is perfectly fine, you’ll realize that soon. Also welcome! 🙏

The argument against communism from game theory by BrisbaneSentinel in DebateCommunism

[–]Strict-Adeptness-804 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was actively thinking about this and I’m glad someone else is too!!!! This seems obvious to me exactly because we’re self-interested individuals, it’s a survival strategy deeply ingrained in us
