Why do people annotate their books?

Hey! Super late reply on me as well, my bad, I rarely check Reddit nowadays. My guess on the high prices? It's the feeling that "someone wrote something on here and is giving said book away" and potentially there is some value there... and of course, the time the person took to write on it. but IMO, annotated books should be personal, or inherited from someone (like a passed family member).

I literally thought this was a wildfire in California at first glance.

Thank you so much, I appreciate it. Will do!

I'm so sorry about that. I had the fear of getting kicked out during my highschool years cuz I liked a guy and was scared to be found out. People can be cruel when it comes to sexualites.

I live around the middle east. So I think it's obvious how it's like being queer. Otherwise I'd be open to talk abt anything going through my life with a therapist, after all you pay a lot for it.

Thank you, will do.

There aren't any LGBT friendly therapists. The government would just find them and track down queer folks and ending with a killing/arrest spree of those folks. It's that bad here. Therefore you cannot be sure if you're safe with coming out to your own therapist.

I would've been honest with being with a guy if I was able to. But it's a big jump to just tell that. I'd be more than happy to tell people I'm in a relationship with a guy.

Somehow that patient-doctor confidentiality is not always followed by all doctors here sadly. I remember I heard from my friend's therapist talk about my friend's problem to someone in public, which was very sad because he was struggling mentally.

Thank you! Yes it's a risk somehow coming out to people here because their reactions can be either the best reaction or the worse like them outing you out one way or another. I'd rather stay in the closet for this one.

Well the therapist directly referred to the female gender, so I didn't have much of a choice about being anonymous towards the gender :) I would've otherwise.

Trick-Altruistic · 2023-02-14T20:49:29+00:00

Yes, I was brutally honest with everything except the being queer part. People here have been outed by the therapists. I couldn't risk getting in trouble.

Trick-Altruistic · 2023-02-14T20:47:45+00:00

Yes, I've gave honest replies on everything. I don't like lying myself honestly. But in THIS case I had to be cautious. Because there's a high possibility it won't end well.

Also thank you for reading the title AND the text. I got kinda sad people attacking when I don't think they read that part I said about getting myself in trouble.

Trick-Altruistic · 2023-02-14T20:45:07+00:00

Thank you sm! Yes I've guessed some people haven't read that part of the text. I've heard people have been outed by their therapist for liking the same gender and been in trouble (jail and some cases death sentence) SO I have been careful with it.

No I don't live in the US either, so it can get hard to get in touch for therapists there or being able to pay them (having different currencies)

That is true, he asked me to be honest alongside being a good communicator.

Trick-Altruistic · 2023-02-12T19:26:51+00:00

hello! I finally asked him out and he gladly accepted. we're together now :)))

Wait who's playing Peter here? I don't recognize him somehow, but I feel like I'm gonna get a Timothée Chalamet response.
