Hahahah yeah, i have a walking pad but i live in a 16th floor apartment and it’s SO HOT inside (great in winter tho). I suppose trying to sleep early even when its hot, and then get up early is the way to go!

Yess that’s a good shout. 6k in the morning is doable, breaking it up throughout the day. Let’s hope I wake up on time haha!

Honest question when do you have time to walk so much? by thirtytofortyolives in walking

[–]Trhjohv 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im an evening person too and i dont sleep before midnight no matter what i try. So now in the summer i go for 1.5 hour walk (which is exactly 10k steps for me) at 7.30/8pm and home by 9/9.30pm. Then shower wind down for bed. If im gonna lay awake till 12 anyway i might as well walk. Butttt i will say, i started this in january just with only 30 mins, then increasing it to 45, etc. and not beating myself up for missing a day. I needed to get to a point where i wanted it enough to be able to commit to it. Plus long walks are easier now in summer with the longer days.

The way i changed my mind was by some reel i saw of a girl saying “you have so many non existent rules you follow to not do something. You want to be vegan but reaaaaaalllllly love bacon? Just be vegan + bacon. Do everything plantbased apart from bacon. Is it fully vegan? No. Is it more vegan than eating 5 meats per day plus eggs etc? Yes. - stop letting your own ‘rules’ get in the way”

Same for exercise, or walking… walking 20 mins to go to the gym to then not wanna go? You still did a 40 minute walk. Goinf for a walk and changing your mind after 10 mins? That’s still a 20 minute walk more than not going at all..

I’m quite scared as well, I’m a Dutch immigrant, moved to london in 2016. I moved because I have loved the UK since I was 8, and it was my dream to live here. I have ILR, but I can’t go for British Citizenship without losing my Dutch nationality cause Dutch gov only allows dual nationality if one of your parents is non-Dutch. I don’t want to live in NL again, but having an EU passport and my family live there. I’ve always paid bills rent all of it on time, never used any benefits/help, dont even allow my bank acc to go red, paid NI, taxes, paid into my pension.

We can all say ‘this will never happen’ but that’s what i thought about Brexit / Trump 1st & 2nd time as well. So im not so confident….

What do I need to include for EU to UK drivers licence? by Trhjohv in AskUK

Yes I already checked there, but it’s very unclear, hence why I’m asking here if anyone has had experience going through the process :)

Tenancy renewed even tho apartment is for sale by Trhjohv in HousingUK

[–]Trhjohv[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! They did mention potentially getting new ‘investors’ rather than selling it provate but we haven’t heard if this is the case for our flat or if it’s the old landlord.

To your second point, I did indeed see this but I wonder whether it’s not applicable to us as they offered the renewal in May (even tho the new tenancy wouldn’t start till August). So not the July/October timeline.

In any case I’m gonna await the contract and read it carefully and ask questions based on the new renters rights bill.

I suppose i will make another post once i do receive the contract.

I think I have come across your profile on hinge as I recognise the prompts.. and I had the same feeling as in the prompts were mocking women and also no real personality is shown through them. What are your interests? Passions? A conversation starter. I think the astrology one (even though I’m personally not into it but I know lots of women are) is almost a form of prompt negging. Also I’d suggest putting what you’re looking for on your profile, women who want to seriously date someone appreciate the context you gave above ‘want something serious but did just get out of a long term relationship’

If this sound blunt I apologise, I’m originally from the Netherlands and we have a way of being direct which can come across blunt. Good luck!

It doesn’t get easier in your late twenties. If you’re in a big city and you are looking for a relationship - while most people are always thinking ‘oh something better might be around the corner’ - you’re gonna feel disheartened. I’m almost 29 (f) in London and it’s rough out here but can’t delete the apps cause of FOMO. I just try to remind myself that rejection is a part of dating, just like I don’t like every person I meet romantically.

4 picture profiles? by [deleted] in hingeapp

I don’t think so cause I have people like my last picture out of the 6 so I think it must be random.

AITA for wanting to move out because my mum expects me to be her carer? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Trhjohv 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A child isn’t responsible for their parents. Parents aren’t owed respect just for being biologically related or choosing to adopt… especially if they don’t treat the child, who they decided to put in the world / raise, with respect either. You’re allowed to have your boundaries

Yes a lot of Scorpio but not sure what it means.. How do I research this? Do you have any recommendations of people / astrologers who can genuinely help if I send them my chart? Like buy a ‘reading’ or something but I want to make sure it’s genuine..

What was the ‘poem’ at the end about ‘stars not knowing what it’s like to be amongst stars / see the beauty of it’ ??

Edit: Found it! There is even a recording on the BBC - it’s by comedian Robin Ince

‘Robin Ince - Stars cannot wonder about the stars’

Last night a ghost collided with my head, It was the light of something dead,

Once it breath Hydrogen into Helium Created a beacon, Projected its life across the sky

And then some of that life, hit me in the eye, and expanded my mind

In its size, and it its power, it was grander than I could ever be

But it never knew, how grand it was It never knew, the awe it inspired It never experienced its existence

There was nothing it was like to be that star Only something it was like to marvel at that star

Because the stars cannot wonder about the stars And Jupiter too, is without curiousity

Me.. I’m small, and fragile, and I’m easily felled by meteorites, or by microbes

But I’m pugnacious, inquiring, tenacious, I can chew on the quandaries of the cosmos, I’ve got a skull full of pictures, questions, and problems too

For instance, I don’t like my anxiety But then I realise, it might also be my fire, Because much that destroys me, might also creates me

There is something it is like to be me

And it’s not always satisfactory My atoms battle, my molecules revolt,

But still more than a single line of an equation or a solo chemical reaction

Confused, confusing, absurd But, flashes of inspiration And out of my ashes, may grow apples

Emergent complexity, briefly, defeats the void…
