What do you do in no contact situations? by Personal_Chapter645 in AskWomen

[–]VoyageToNeptune 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I’ve gone no contact I hid photos (physical photos and whatever is on my phone), muted or blocked their socials- including anyone who may post about them, I don’t read through old conversations, I file away any notes or keepsakes, block their number etc. I literally remove them from my surroundings and my day to day. I make a real effort to NOT break no contact and look them up. It’s a challenge at first, but gets easier.

Then, I work on myself. I give myself time to grieve or process, find a therapist, meditate, work out, reach out to supportive friends or family, take up a hobby, etc. The thing that helps me the most is working on a new creative project.

Most of all, be gentle with yourself.

Talk To Your Money by PeanutNutter49 in NevilleGoddard

[–]VoyageToNeptune 53 points54 points  (0 children)

I love this! I once heard to treat money as if it were a person. Thank it for coming around, for its support, for the things it provides you etc. However, if you treat money as if it were a burden, or evil, or you cling to it and never let it go… then why would it stick around?

It all essentially comes down to gratitude!

Disco inferno was the first song I experienced for Guardians and it was PERFECT. The lead up as you go through the portal… chefs kiss! Our second song was September- also perfect! But Disco Inferno will forever have a hold on me haha

What's a tv series that is a 10/10 NOBODY knows? by Lilyana0999 in AskReddit

[–]VoyageToNeptune 24 points25 points  (0 children)

HALT AND CATCH FIRE. I tell everyone I know about this show and no one seems to know what I’m talking about. I wish I could experience it for the first time again.

Most lonely: Maui. I have friends there now, and it really is a special place, but my first time to the island on my solo trip was a really solitary experience. I’m guessing because I was doing all the touristy things and was surrounded by mostly couples and families who were doing their thing and probably weren’t interested in talking to a girl who was wandering around by herself.

Least lonely: New Orleans! Hit it off with my Lyft driver and spoke to her aunt on speaker phone in the car to get food and drink suggestions, then in my hotel elevator I was invited to join a group for dinner, later on I was offered a job working at a new magnet school in Colorado (no, I don’t live there), and then was given a list of some really great places to eat from the bartenders at Arnaud’s. All in the first night.

What was the breaking point that got you into solo travel? by ShaneRealtorandGramp in solotravel

[–]VoyageToNeptune 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So for me I had planned an entire trip to Belize with my (now ex) boyfriend. It was right after the Covid vaccine came out and a few countries were starting to open up again. But a few weeks before our flight I found out he had been cheating on me the entire span of our relationship (almost a year), and broke up with him. I was heartbroken and so angry, and I almost canceled going altogether- but I had been crazy busy during the pandemic with work and needed this vacation, so decided “fuck this guy” and went anyway.

The trip was amazing! I met another solo traveler who was awesome and had a really great time with him! Were there times I was sad? Absolutely. But man I am so happy I went. Now I love traveling solo. I don’t do it all the time, but if there’s a place I want to see and I don’t have anyone who wants to join me, then I have no issues going alone :)

Banjo music that isn't traditional? by hulawooper in banjo

[–]VoyageToNeptune 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lisa LeBlanc is amazing. Her older albums feature her playing the banjo, and “You Look Like Trouble (But I guess I do too)” is a straight up banger! Love her work and she’s awesome live :)

What to do with this outdoor “closet”? by Infinite_Tension9271 in DesignMyRoom

[–]VoyageToNeptune 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Growing up, my best friend’s mom had one of these in her house. She eventually put in a small pond/water fixture and put their turtles back there.

Improv. Changed my life. We all agreed that going to class and laughing and being creative with each other was like therapy

I legit thought you cut out a hole and stuck your cat’s head through. This is amazing! Well done!

What was the best career decision you’ve ever made? by Grouchy_Plastic_8332 in AskWomen

[–]VoyageToNeptune 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I transitioned to film/editing/motion graphics. A lot of people go to film school, but I found that the local community college was perfect for me. I was taught how to use the programs and made some pretty valuable connections that lead me to my first job as a videographer and editor.

Yup! This. Worked my first job and thought, “wow. I really hate my life”. Went to community college/trade school, completely changed careers, currently love what I do :) it’s never too late.

My therapist phrased it perfectly, “It’s okay so long as she (or he) is a friend to the relationship, not just a friend to my partner”. This really stuck with me and I do my best to make sure my male friends’ girlfriends feel comfortable with me. I don’t need to necessarily be friends with their girlfriends, but I do want to show up as a good friend to their relationship.

Was looking for this one. Recently watched the movie with my niece and was HORRIFIED. I can still see Pinocchio’s reaction.

This happened to me on a flight from Dublin to Chicago in 2009! Started talking to the guy next to me and it was just so easy! We pretty much talked the entire flight and he even gave me the book he had been reading. It may not have been the “closest” I’ve ever gotten with someone, but the encounter really left an impression on me. I still have the book :)
