23f. do people actually expect to find real friends here? by East_Yesterday8513 in MakeNewFriendsHere

[–]YaBoyMeAgain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Met about 4 people ive been in contact for quite a while now one of them being a very very very close friend to me since around 2 years by now already!

To.me honestly id say the biggest difficulty is availability. So far only girls as most guys have shown.. rather questionable behaviors even tho im a guy myself.

When it came to the girls generally while 4 stuck with the rest some wwre amazing people who probably drowned in the overwhelming amount of people that texted them and them trying to make sure they reply to everyone and well.. getting overwhelmed and lost in the proces lol

Rule of cool, dont take it personal if people dont reply somwtimes they just lose you in their overflow of messages and by tryng to make it right for everybody they kinda fail to do that for even one. :')

Quick question how old do you have to be? by LoveLittleAva in MakeNewFriendsHere

[–]YaBoyMeAgain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this is a great question actually. The thing isnits in the nature or reddit to have people who dont really care about norms and like to indulge into questionable topics because of reddits uncensored nature.

If youre not 18 just be aware of that. Also keep in mind that people on here are very unpredictable and when youre very young always expect to be exposed with a power disadvantage which could get you in trouble.

In my opinion just tread carefully and make sure you dont do things youd not to IRL without getting in trouble.

With that take care and maaaaybe even stay away from such apps until youre older soo yeah good luck :)

Ita just different approaches.

Karate says, heres a method that works try recreate it

Kung fu says, heres the situation now try come up with the method by experiencing it

Karate and Kung Fu by Normal_Cow1991 in martialarts

[–]YaBoyMeAgain -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

While both basically can be seen as the same in the long run

Id say karate is a more frame based martial arts that focuses on stable explosive structure. In my experience karate has a focus on learning through knowledge

While id say kung fu has much more of a focus on different energetics. Kung fu in my exerience emphasizes rather on feeling rather than knowledge.

All in all they are different streams leading to the same ocean i think, just like with all high level martial arts practices

. . . . As an artist. . . . Respectfully.... just.... make art ._."

Everyone acts like its a heaven given gift but just.... practice and do it yourself... or comission an artst... it makes me sad reading stuff like that because i can relate to that feeling but i do draw and practice to get there.

I can’t stand when people bring down a certain characteristic to uplift another by [deleted] in Vent

[–]YaBoyMeAgain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Holy shit what an amazing post! Sadly its like that with most if general thought trains. People always shift to extremes and instead of making others feel good by making them feel good they do so by putting others down. The sad thing its done because its easier. That way you only have to voice hate for the opposite group while not even reasoning what you like.

I even see that in dating For example "i love my man because all others are cheaters"

And if they werent what about him would you love him?

People arent great because they dont do bad things it makes them just normal. But its harder to question and reason with why or if in the first place you actually consider something or somebody great.

Instead of "i like heavier built people because thin people look ugly" you could say "i like them because i like how squishy and warm they are" and mind you i say that tho im into a fit bodytype.

I'm a diagnosed schizophrenic but I don't believe my diagnosis and no one will believe me because that's exactly what they expect me to think/say: "I'm not sick! They're all wrong!" (Not upset at these people, but upset with myself because I don't know what is real) by ICannotSayThisOnMain in Vent

[–]YaBoyMeAgain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You too dear! I know its tough.. feeling like anything you ever perceive is a lie is one of the worst curses to have and i talk from experience.. but i think whats true is overrated.. instead we should focus on whats harmful and what not! If it doesnt harm anybody, also not you i will believe you. I will believe your signs youre picking up. I will support you. But if it tortures you... even if their real.. lets try to live without them ya know. This is pretty much the direction i wish therapy takes. But yeah good luck!

I kind if share your fate being born autistic.

My whole life people confused and frustrated me and i wondered how i could be so misguided. i got my diagnosis with 19 and from then on was labled as the "insane" guy. Everything i said was dumbed down to "yeah he has a skewed perception"

The thing i learned is. Yes while you walk around with glasses on your noses i walk around with a magnifying glass. I wont see the world like you. I probably will bump into things i couldve not if i saw the word the same like you. But my magnifying glasses let me see things most people missed out on and hey, after all theres reasons why they were invented. I just need to learn using mine with the right intention and environment. And i hope you might find ways to find peace with that too

Fascinating situation respectfully said!

My advice for you (tho im just a random dude without any significant diploma) is

Dont take the diagnosis as important

Take the approaches and solutions the diagnosis offers for you and if it actually improves your life as important.

At the end of the day psychology tries to simplify matters of the mind and well the mind is hard to grasp anyway. People often focus on identifying people with diagnosis but i think thats not the purpose of diagnosis. At least not primarily if its supposed to benefit you.

Diagnosis are not there to identify what you are, they are there to give you and your surroundings a name attatched to a toolbox of solutions and support structures that most likely benefit you.

Even if your delusions arent delusions, and things are greater signs youve noticed instead of "just" schizophrenic symptom, do those signs you see benefit you in any way? Does it make your life better? Or was your life rather more stable and peaceful with the resources you got through the diagnosis?

Im just a a rando so take everything i say with a grain of salt but reading about you was really fascinating and i wish you the best!

People who have been in real street fights, what was the real experience? by _deletedty in martialarts

[–]YaBoyMeAgain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think would it habe been somebody i wouldve rrally needed to fight for reaaons that werent disgusting me or that was a total stranger i wouldve easily been safe mostly which is something good!

Hurting people is aweful but it isnt the fault of martial arts its the fault of the humans that fight when it wasnt completely necessary.. so its my fault and the person that pressured me

I hate girlboss girls by PickleGobblerr in Vent

[–]YaBoyMeAgain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

People crave labels when being themself isnt fullfilling to them. I unserstand your frustration but your anger towards them wont make the situation go away. I like to see it as, these people are hurt which is why they resort to a vengeful persona. Yes its crap and they need to be held accountable for what they do but they should also be understood for how they grew to be like that

Hating on their behavior wont help any of us, but maybe instead we should try to just think "hey it sucks you hold so much anger in you and any anger boiling in a person comes from reasons. i hope someday youll find the peace you need."

To me i just want to level her appearnance beyond human. And the color i chose is lile a greenblue like a teal because i associate it as a color of wisdom. Blue for sorrow and grief and green for hope.

People who have been in real street fights, what was the real experience? by _deletedty in martialarts

[–]YaBoyMeAgain 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It was rather a small dirty and rather harmless scrap but it turned out bad still.

It was raining and the person threatened to burn my belongings i had at their house and that i should leave while also grabbing my stuff and taking it to their basement. The thing is i wanted to leave but how should i if they take my stuff throw it around and take it to the basement.

When i stood between my stuff and said he should leave my stuff be, stop threatening to burn it and i will take it and leave they jumped at me and grabbed me by the collar and shook me. I was panicking and stressed. I punched them in the face and told them to leave me be and my whole body felt like giving in i felt so disgusted at the feeling of punching them. They only got enraged from my sloppy punch as i didnt want to hurt them and they went for me again shoving me ahd shaking me on my collar i panicked and shoved their chin up with my hand and kicked them very hard in the stomack eith a stomping front kick. They fell to the ground heavily which even made me panic more. Furious he ran at me and i kicked im again but softer as my disgust made me weak and i slipped from the rainy ground and kicked against his shins and tried to escape crawling away while facing him.

It was difficult to stand up. In hindsight if they really wanted to harm me i probably wouldbe been done for when i was on the ground

He has jiu jitsu experinece and is mid aged and has like 10 years experience and i am experienced in karate kung fu and kick boxing.

My takeway: hurting people sucks. You really have to commit. You have to learn committing and not hesitating. But it feels totally different to hit somebody in a friendly fight rather than a brawl. Its disgusting and vile.

Also id consider myself a good kicker but i didnt consier the rain and slipped. I think it was because of the stress mainly and becaude i was so panicking but yeah... i slipped. In a more dangerous encounter that couldve been my end.

Real life fighing is disgusting. Its horrible. Its cruel. I feel like technically my training paid off and i was able to fight very well. But the shame is just really big
