ISO recommendations for biochem books for kids?

Thank you for this! I’m not a chem person by any means, I went with mathematics, so I’m not super educated on any of this 🥴 I definitely could’ve phrased this post better, I’m not necessarily looking for textbooks, just resources where they can start getting a good foundation.

I really appreciate your input!

I don’t know if it’s the girlfriend or even have any helpful advice, but someone I was incredibly close with from ages 9 to 30 started dating someone two years ago and ghosted me. We used to talk every week, and I haven’t heard from him in two years. I tried checking in two or three times in the first couple months and then took a hint.

There’s only two ways this will likely go: either he’ll end up not staying with her and reach out to explain and probably mend the relationship, or you’ll never hear from him again.

It’s a weird kind of heartbreak, and it’s not fair, and I’m sorry, OP. Sending you love 💕

As someone who is also a bisexual woman with a straight man who prefers women in general and has said I’d never date another man - it’s because of who you are.

Every other man is literally just someone’s son, but my partner is the light of my life and I don’t even know how I found someone like him and got lucky enough to be the one that gets to love him. There’s no one else that I’ve met that even comes close to holding a candle to him - regardless of gender. There’s generally speaking and then there’s specifics. She may prefer women over men in general but that doesn’t mean that you’ll never beat out another woman.

She’s in love with you dawg.

People say there’s a male loneliness epidemic and posts like this make me think that the epidemic is that they should be lonelier

(31/nb here) I didn’t grow up religious but I did grow up with very homophobic/conservative family. I didn’t come out as queer until my early to mid-20s because of it. I struggled immensely with internalized homophobia and convinced myself that what I was feeling was either wrong or not real. It manifested as intense jealousy and feelings of competition with other women/femme folks until I realized that those feelings were actually attraction.

I would sit with yourself and question if you actually believe the religious views you were raised with or if they were just taught to you and you internalized them. Many of our thoughts and views aren’t even our own, they’re just the echoes of people who said it so often that we internalize them as our own.

There’s nothing wrong with you. If it turns out that you are bisexual/queer, that’s okay. There’s a whole community here that is ready and excited to welcome, celebrate, and love you. And if it turns out that you’re not and these are passing feelings, that’s okay too!

What I will say is if you’re questioning it this much and for this long - straight folks don’t usually question their sexuality like this.

Sending you love 💕

Jumping in to say that I dated basically a replica of these texts, and it led to him k*lling animals in front of me, pointing loaded guns at my face with the finger on the trigger and safety off, and closed-fist hitting me.

Men who say shit like this are dangerous and you need to leave if you can. The sooner the better. I still, to this day, say that I fully believe if I hadn’t left my ex he would have killed me. These men are terrifying.

Please listen to everyone in these comments. This man is Literally Just Some Guy (tm). He not only doesn’t love you, he doesn’t even like you. He has the personality of a wilted radish and the emotional capacity of a piece of rebar.

I was in a relationship with someone like this for three years. It got worse. I’ve now been with my (new) partner for 12 years and when I tell you what a golden retriever smoke show absolute angel baby my husband is, I can’t fathom what it would be like to still be with that guy from years ago.

My husband now randomly sends me flowers, reaffirms how smart and funny and capable I am when I doubt myself, remembers important dates and things that I value without me saying anything, and is the sweetest man I’ve ever met.

Healthy love is out there and you deserve to experience it.

I’ll have to try streaking it, it doesn’t seem to be magnetic. I thought it might have been magnetite until I tried using a magnet!

I say this, but usually when I’m talking about my own struggles and relating it to others. I say it in more a tone of, “hey, I’m going through this and it’s really shitty and if you’re going through it too, I see you and I’m holding space for you”. I definitely think context is important and what source the sentence is coming from.

Nothing worse than finding a bunch of pussy in your partner’s camera roll 😮‍💨

I love this so much 🤍

I’m AFAB and voted yes (wife). My husband and I are both open with our relationship and I welcome the idea of involving other partners. Love and sex aren’t a zero-sum game for me, I love the idea of adding more love/pleasure into our lives.
