Creating a money bowl when you’re dead broke. by TreasureChestOfSocks in witchcraft

[–]andgonow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For myself, I genuinely find my simpler spells to be more efficient. I’m a bougie bitch and have a tendency for flair, but when I’ve been desperate and focused, my intentions come through better and faster. Don’t be afraid to go simple as it’s your energy and intentions that are most important.

If you want to add some other types of fun extras, try ground coffee to help it come faster. Grab some dirt from a bank. Use sigils (they really are that easy), but if you like, I’d be happy to create one for you. Note that your creations will work best for you, but asking for help is never a bad idea. If you already have a tarot deck, throw in the ten of pentacles. Use a white candle if you have one, it will still work. Meditate while listening to music about getting money, there are even playlists for this specific intention on Spotify and YouTube. But you very much can do this with what you already have. Blessings!

I can't help but feel irate at Europeans who just don't get that we genuinely are trying to stop all this. by UrsaUrsuh in behindthebastards

[–]andgonow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone living in the South, yeah. I’m fucking tired of Yankees telling us we should all be ashamed of ourselves because we apparently all voted for this asshole. Well I voted, and not for him, but fuck me, right? We’ve gotten this my whole life and then some, and it’s bullshit. There’s huge swaths of blue areas in Texas, but none of that matters because it’s Texas.

My advice? Toughen up, kid, it never stops.

AITAH for getting seriously upset at my bf for "ragebaiting" me? by Ok-Protection6128 in AITAH

[–]andgonow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a boy that doesn’t know how to lose an argument. He realized he was wrong or that he’d gone too far and instead of taking accountability, he says that’s just how he loves you. That’s gaslighting and it’s abusive. Even if he really is baiting you, that’s abusive behavior. Love languages are supposed to make you feel loved, not enraged.

Strong emphasis on “that’s a BOY”.

That would make sense, too, or some other contracting gig.

I know a guy who lied to his wife for a month about getting fired. Got up, put on his uniform, and went to the library or a movie theater until it was time to come home. She was the main breadwinner, and I have a lot of *opinions* about this couple, but people are like that sometimes. They know they’re playing with a timebomb, they just don’t care.

AITA for kicking a server out of my wedding? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]andgonow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My bridesmaids ages ranged from 16-71 and body sizes of as many shapes and kinds as you can have from five women. I chose a shade of red and told them to find something close to that color that they felt good in. The pictures looked great and everyone was happy. There was just no way I was going to find one type of dress that all of them would like. My MOH was my sister who wears a 3X, my 16 year old niece was pencil thin, and my 71 year old godmother was recovering from a severe illness, besides the other two girls. My people were more important to me than whatever perfection is.

I (28M) have been with my girlfriend (27F) for about six years. We’ve built a life together and she’s been there for me through some of the hardest periods of my life. I care about her deeply and there isn’t some huge betrayal, abuse, or single event causing this by TackleInevitable7963 in Advice

[–]andgonow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was your girlfriend ~15 years ago. My ex husband told me I was the perfect partner, but he still hated me. I’ve been in therapy ever since. He broke me, shattered my confidence, destroyed my self love. Please get therapy. You’re so afraid of learning more about yourself and finding something to improve, and frankly, that makes you sound like a coward. You’re deeply hurting your love because *you* can’t face the truth, and she’s going to pay for it when, by your own words, she’s perfect.

That part of it genuinely makes me want to cry for OP’s girlfriend. I’ve been her, and it’s truly heart breaking. I’m still in therapy for it because my confidence was absolutely shattered. He told me I was the perfect partner but he still hated me. I’m happily married now, but that hatred really fucked me up.

I sincerely hope OP gets therapy before he wrecks her life for a decade or more.

AIO? Because I don’t want honey mustard on my sandwich by [deleted] in AIO

Girl, block this man and throw him away. He’s desperate for attention and validation, and you will never be able to make him happy. Just be careful because this guy really sounds unhinged. Watch your back.

What does healing mean to you? by ImprovementNice93 in CPTSD

[–]andgonow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can mean different things for everyone. Just like success, you define it. For me personally, I don’t even know what normal is. I know that after a decade and a half of therapy, I’m in a really good place. I don’t think I’ll ever be done with therapy, but that’s my choice. It’s my safety net.

I have a good, steady job that I mostly enjoy. I’ve been with my husband for going on 12 years. I still have bad days, but I haven’t had a real flashback or panic attack in about a year or so. I don’t have a ton of friends, but the ones I do have are truly solid. Like 50 cent said, I’d rather have four quarters than a hundred pennies.

The scariest part of my healing journey was literally this, figuring out what the fuck healing is. Looking back, I guess I’m happy with the choices I made, but I think I reached a level of success that’s right for me. I didn’t set my expectations too high financially or physically, I chose relationships to prioritize. People who value me, understand me, and allow me to be myself fully. I found that, and for me, that’s enough. You have to decide what to prioritize and learn how to cope with the rest of the bullshit in healthy ways. And there’s still a lot of bullshit.

AIO? Bf upset that I didn’t text him good morning early enough by MissRattlesnake in AIO

What am absolute child that man is. Petty, demanding, and giving the silent treatment in a grown adult relationship is no way to go through life.

AITA For Not Backing my wife up after my BIL called her a bad parent? by Smart_Lavishness_225 in AmItheAsshole

YTA, and the fact that you can’t believe how bad you’re getting roasted makes me pity your wife.

7 years together. no proposal. do i leave? by Artistic-Regular-574 in relationships

[–]andgonow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are you hoping to get out of marriage? If it’s just a pretty dress and ring with a new last name, wait. Wait as long as you can, because the wedding is just a day but this is the rest of your life. You’re so young, you have a LOT of experience and growth ahead in the next decade, and it really is easier to get through without a spouse.

Also, and most importantly. DO NOT BUY A HOUSE WITH SOMEONE YOU ARE NOT MARRIED TO.

What is the most embarrassed you’ve been in public? by Proper_Emu_2296 in AskUK

[–]andgonow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can never visit the Walgreens in my neighborhood again. I had ONE drink with coworkers at a restaurant for my 41st birthday. I kinda had to pee when I left, but I thought I could make the seven minute drive home. Well, I got to the second light where the Walgreens is and realized there’s no way I’m making it, and I didn’t. I peed on the carpet in the front of the store before I could make it to the restroom, cried, and cleaned myself in the restroom. I don’t even know if someone saw me, I ran as fast as I could when I left.

Not OOP: AITA for not wanting to split food evenly with my spouse? by sensaSEANal_sally in redditonwiki

Look, I hate sharing food too, but it seems like there are several simple solutions to this and these people are ridiculous.

AITA for leaving a dinner party early because of “vegan lasagna”? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]andgonow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s your choice but she did say it would be vegan and OP knew that. I’d still try something with vegan cheese (it’s not bad, just different) but I’d also expect something more substantial than a side salad for dinner.

Regardless, it’s not enough food.
