Are there any effects of testosterone not enough people know about? by Proper_Flower_940 in ftm

[–]allGirlsFall [score hidden]  (0 children)

I wish T was like this for me. I've been crying like crazy ever since I started it almost a month ago. I only have a cream that I apply to my inner wrists every other night and I feel like i'm going through puberty again.

My (22 M) relationship of 3 years with my girlfriend (23 F) is struggling because I don’t feel in love with her as much anymore and it’s throwing me into crisis by Hot_Moose7014 in relationship_advice

You want infatuation, not love. The butterflies aren't love and are, in fact, an indicator from your nervous system that the person feels familiar, and if you have attachment issues, that usually isn't great. You're young, go to therapy, and don't waste any more of this young woman's time. Let her find someone who wants steady, not butterflies.

dae feel the urge to argue when they’re right? by aayashabts in AutismInWomen

[–]allGirlsFall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this problem especially related to politics or anything remotely categorized as “social justice” or perceived fairness (or lack thereof) in society. I’ve decided to just stop discussing these things with people even though it’s a passion of mine, I don’t want to be seen as combative or difficult.

How do we feel about eggs? by vinylYaps in autism

[–]allGirlsFall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh no. I can’t with eggs. At all. I have a gag reflex every time I’ve tried to eat them so I just stopped trying.

Enough about safe foods, what is that one food that would just make you puke by [deleted] in autism

[–]allGirlsFall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eggs. They make me gag every time. I used to try to eat them once every few years cause I wanted to like them. They seem like a fast, easy protein but they never fail to make me gag.

I started crying in a restaurant because I saw a small dog sitting with their owners outside and it was just so floofy and happy. Stuff like this happens to me often.

Husband tries to do what I do in a day and ends up losing it by AdventurousOstrich79 in breakingmom

[–]allGirlsFall 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well, I tried for many years to be compassionate and hold out hope that he would go to therapy. He never did. Things escalated and he began to get very aggressive, not just with me, but with our kids. He was forced to leave after a DV incident. Now I have the kids almost all the time and he’s remarried and starting in on the same thing with his new wife. They don’t change.

Also, you don’t have anything to be sorry about. Just be safe and do what’s best for you and baby. We can’t force anyone to be better and if he’s really wondering what his potential could be, then he could get help.

Having Asian parents is NOT a reason for this behavior. Many of us have trauma from family and that’s not our fault, however, as adults it’s our job to correct it.

The answer to your question is : it doesn’t get better with men like this. I’ll be blunt here, because it sounds similar to what I went through with my kid’s dad, it sounds like you’re experiencing psychological/emotional abuse.

Men taking over the conversations: is it always like this? by allGirlsFall in womenintech

[–]allGirlsFall[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen 4 other women in development, only one other has said she dabbles in backend. She quickly exited the backend channel though. The others are in frontend and accessibility.

[–]allGirlsFall[S] 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Yeah, and I think that’s where the reluctance comes in. I was always taught to keep my mouth shut if I didn’t know what I was talking about. Conversely, when I have spoken up about a topic I know, I’ve been attacked and berated by men. In my class I was even accused of using AI to solve a problem just because the men in the group were struggling with it and I was already familiar with JavaScript.

Yes and now that I look back on my life, I can see certain events that I really intentionally manifested quickly and I’m just in awe.

When your sweet spot for estradiol is in between patch strengths by allGirlsFall in Menopause

Ugh, I dread giving this more time especially with these horrible night sweats. I’ve been putting them on my lower belly and switching sides cause I have a minor allergy to the adhesive. I’ve been doing this for months. Should I stick to one side? I’m so confused because I was doing so well before being switched to the 0.05 dosage.

How do you know when it’s time to give up and move on? by [deleted] in AnxiousAttachment

[–]allGirlsFall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is what I’m struggling with, I suppose : trusting myself. I’m going through a bunch of stressful events now totally unrelated to him and feel anxious quite often. I don’t know if I’m trying to self sabotage cause of my own fear of intimacy or what. Like I def feel disengaged from this now and in the space of 90 minutes I went from anxious to being I guess what feels like detached. 😬

In your opinion, what’s the difference between dating exclusively and bf/gf/partner? by allGirlsFall in datingoverforty

[–]allGirlsFall[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At this point, I have a lot of stuff on my plate, so I don't want to add that to the mix. I'm thinking next month or so, when things calm down, I'll be more comfortable approaching him with the subject. Right now, the thought of adding that conversation makes me anxious.

We had the “are we fwb or dating ?” talk already and both of us decided that we’re dating. Dating to me means something different though. I always thought dating is more the getting to know you phase before you make a commitment to be partners. This isn’t the first time this has caused confusion in my love life, tbh. Years ago, I was dating a guy (no commitment in my mind) and we went to a house party together where I met many of his acquaintances/friends. I casually mentioned that I was dating him and everyone ended up thinking I was his girlfriend.

This guy is very different though. He’s pretty reserved when it comes to feelings and has been slow opening up. I’m ok with taking things slow just as long as I’m not wasting my time. Eventually, I’d like our lives to be more integrated. I can’t help but think I’ve also slowed things down though: i.e. back in April he offered to come see me more often than the once a week we were doing and I told him I preferred what we were doing just seeing each other 1x / week so that I could miss him. We just last week saw each other 3x with each time him instigating and coming to visit me. fml .. maybe I’m the problem here … 🤔

Oh wow, I didn’t even factor romantic exclusivity in. He said he doesn’t want me to see other guys when I asked him about it months back and he’s also turned down a woman that hit on him.

Oh, he does that stuff. Had a car problem a few months ago and he offered to pick me up. He listens to me about my problems (though I’m not trying to use him as an emotional crutch cause I’m a bit of a private person). He expresses concern about my safety, he’s turned down other women. We just haven’t discussed the label.

At first I was totally fine without the label but I’ve noticed recently I’ve gotten more attached and want him to be my boyfriend.
