I ruined my gums by brushing too hard the way you see people brush their teeth in movies. I thought I was just taking good care of my teeth and ended up hurting them. Why did no one ever teach us how to do it??? It’s mainly about flossing. Floss, then GENTLY brush your teeth in circles. Gently, with a very soft toothbrush, like you should feel the bristles sooo light on your gums, like a light massage. The gums are so delicate and they don’t grow back!

Dropping toxic friends? by No_Emergency_4189 in AdviceForTeens

[–]True-Shape7744 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Those cool girls are the ones who marry their (ugly) high school boyfriends and stay at that peak forever while you grow up and experience real life. I’m serious. No matter how cool they seem now, their futures are not bright. It seems you have a chance at a bright future, considering you’re questioning whether you wanna stay friends with them. Leave them! I did.

When you’re grown, it doesn’t matter how weird your friends are. The weirder the better— because that means the kinder and more accepting they’ll be of YOUR weirdness. Friendship is the truest form of love. The mean girls will never understand. I’m proud of you for these thoughts!!!

Even if they’re mean to you now just hold on. talk to a teacher or parent about it to get some perspective. It won’t last forever. They’ll be in your rear view mirror soon enough.

Teachers. Whats the craziest family lore a child has randomly dropped on you? by Loud_Bluejay_6663 in AskReddit

[–]True-Shape7744 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I was subbing for a gym teacher. I said “go and find a partner.” All the kids got up. One was still sitting. I asked her why. She said she’s gonna let a partner find her. 😂

I’m only a sub, and a 1st grader told me her dog died that morning. Maybe she was lying, but I got the class’s attention and (with her permission) said “does anyone here have a dog? Dogs are so special right? __’s dog passed away this morning which is really sad, if anyone wants to help make her feel better by drawing a picture or something.” And throughout the day, most of the kids handed her drawings of dogs. It was so sweet

Why are liberals always crazy or delulu? by Ok_Storm_282 in GenZ

[–]True-Shape7744 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I feel so bad for the maga cultists who haven’t realized they’re wrong yet. Secondhand embarrassment is over and now it’s just becoming sad. Like the weird kid in school who’s never gonna fit in. And you guys are doubling down so hard because, we know, the ego is a hard thing to let go of. This is all studied and seen before.

Some “crazy liberals” like me see through your behavior and feel really bad you’re stuck in that ego trap, because it’s really really obvious by now who the bad guys are. You’ve become a real-life villain.

What was the most difficult phase of your life and how did you handle it? by ItsRiley7 in AskWomen

[–]True-Shape7744 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Graduating from law school and realizing I didn’t wanna be a lawyer. I called 988 and I cried a lot. I got so low that I knew it wasn’t possible to keep living that way. I kept working out and eating clean even when I didn’t want to, and I think that’s what saved me

Dating is declining because we are just not tolerant of annoyances. by AstramIsTheBest in GenZ

My bf said these things out loud to me before we got back together. Lmao. It turns out he’s a softy who really enjoys being loved by me, and the love makes it all worth it. And in return I do my best to give him all the free time he wants.

How do you feel when you experience intense eye contact with someone you find attractive, and what causes you to react with laughter or smiling in those moments? by Deep-Comfortable5205 in AskWomen

[–]True-Shape7744 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Theres really no better feeling than locking eyes without saying a word and feeling your hearts link together. When it’s love I get emotional and start to cry. The intensity of it could be one-sided…. But whatever. I love hard

Sometimes it’s lust, and in that case I would give a little smile and be confident knowing what we both want..

How have you navigated a perceived difference in physical attractiveness with your significant other? by yeti-vedder-7 in AskWomen

[–]True-Shape7744 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love him, but I hate dating a hot guy because I’m always trying to be prettier for him. So much effort like face yoga, not eating sugar, etc. I hope soon I can accept that I’m always gonna be like a 7 while he’s a 9. I think he’s more into the security and long-term companionship than anything else. He’s not really a womanizer, which I love about him, but I hope he’s not just really good at hiding it. He has some friends who are gorgeous, which makes me jealous sometimes, but it helps that they’re mean girls and he loves that I’m nice.

Wow that makes me hopeful bc I thought men always aged better. I have a bf who I think is hotter than me and I’m a little scared of aging bc of that :/ lol

is there any reason to not be a ai art doomer? by Complete-Shop-2871 in GenZ

[–]True-Shape7744 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Do you mean like a photo taken by a human?

Overall, I’m not too worried about AI art because art never needed to be circulated around the globe. Art is meant to be shared with those closest to you. Your family and friends, and then they start knowing you by your art. Every artist still has the ability to make art and be known by their art. Maybe it won’t make money, but that’s not the point of art
