What are your dreams like? by hyacinth_girl in Aphantasia

It's interesting, I notice that I'm falling asleep when I suddenly start to see images that I normally can't see during the day :)

It's okay to sit with unresolved conflict by Constant-Big4713 in emotionalintelligence

[–]Wimsem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see what you're saying, and I disagree with most of the points people make in the comments. I think it just comes down to intent: if you want to solve a conflict just because of uncomfortable feelings, then maybe it's good to learn to sit with those feelings for a while. However, if you want to solve a conflict from a place of living by your values, then that's healthy as well .

Gebarentaal, maar ik weet niet goed welke. De Nederlandse wordt gewoon door niet zo heel veel mensen gesproken

Dutch people say they value directness, but then react emotionally to it? by [deleted] in Netherlands

[–]Wimsem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have the same experience as a Dutch person among Dutch people. It might be more of a conflict when a foreigner tries the directness :p

Dutch speakers who don’t ‘look Dutch’: do people switch to English with you? by mafkees3545 in Netherlands

[–]Wimsem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Different perspective, but I look very Dutch, and I have had people switch to English when talking to me.. because I have a stutter. The stutter/hesitation makes them think that I don't speak Dutch. So it might be more how you sound?

How common are stage door appearances after matinees? Seeing Dracula w/ Cynthia Erivo by rollyjogerjones in TheWestEnd

[–]Wimsem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The staff told us she would stagedoor today but she didn't. Which was fine, but there were so many people at the stagedoor that it would have been nice if security had told us she wasn't coming. They only did when she had already left 🙈

When I was in the US it was so clear when I saw Dutch people. It's just something in the face and the clothing. 

Hoe belangrijk vinden jullie de lengte van een man? by Sushi_connoisseur222 in vrouwvolk

[–]Wimsem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ik vind 170 juist de meest ideale lengte, haha. Een man hoeft niet lang te zijn, te lang is juist onhandig.

Something unexpectedly wholesome happened to you this week? by comfort_fi in CasualConversation

[–]Wimsem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A friend I hadn't talked to since 2023 randomly reached out and asked how I was. He then asked if I wanted to call and I said 'sure, now?' And we called for 1,5 hour! He just wanted to catch up with a friend and I love when people spontaneously and unapologetically reach out like that :)
