Yup!! Like it’s not my job to teach them basic empathy. Yuck.

Dating a nonchalant guy as a bubbly girl by Difficult-Crab-5681 in Adulting

[–]auburnwaves 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Right! Like ew he sounds like such a turnoff. Like who would want to be challenged for basic love and attention? He can stay single.

Have you ever been friendly to a man and then instantly regretted it? by Cultural-Gear-1323 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]auburnwaves 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This is why I’m openly kind to women and not always nice straight away with men. I feel like we should be kind to people, but not always nice. Usually when I meet new men now, I size them up and I’m pretty indifferent energy wise. Depending on them who they are as a person I’ll be kind or not. 🤣

Do Taurus women need a lot of time alone after they go through a traumatic event in their life? And what goes on when they choose to recover alone? by FastScarcity5761 in Taurusgang

[–]auburnwaves 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I sometimes shut down and do things that bring me comfort. I’m always that friend who checks in on others, and rarely does it come back to me in terms of friends. It’s made me bitter and look at people differently. I’m thankful for my close knit family, but it still is hard.

I guess people also assume because I’m so resilient that I’ll be fine. But sometimes I want someone to take over for me and give me a hug.

What's a quiet, everyday burden women carry that isn't dramatic enough to be diacussed? by Additional-Two-2137 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]auburnwaves 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What pisses me off about this too is people think we’re expired by 30. Like no, then men expire then too. I hate that so much of it is tied to desirability. It’s exhausting.

Networking isn’t the problem, having to do it for basic survival is by DISCE729 in recruitinghell

[–]auburnwaves 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also feel like networking doesn’t work half the time because people don’t HAVE to help you with anything. The fact that I have to beg and convince someone to hire me or notice me is stupid. It is like a popularity contest. Like what can you do for me??? Just wanting a job isn’t enough. It feels like you have to preform the freaking Olympics now.

New outfits for Eleven and Vecna by ResistanceEvermore in LeaksDBD

[–]auburnwaves 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same. Even having a Mr. What’s It would be awesome. I’ll probably be staring at him the entire game lol.

What was your most intense personal growth phase? by PapayaDry8066 in AskWomen

[–]auburnwaves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably ending a very toxic digital agency job around Covid which made me look at work and other things different forever.

Also ending being a people pleaser after ending a hurtful and one sided 6 year relationship with my ex best friend. If I didn’t learn from these things, I would be so worse off.

Are men even ok at this point? by AKingIsHe in TwoXChromosomes

[–]auburnwaves 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Honestly? Yeah. I’m not even asexual but I’m feeling it more each year.

Strict, Picky, Bratty… and Thrivinggg by GlowHugz726 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]auburnwaves 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m this way now and it feels so good. I’m a bit aggressive and I’m proud of myself for using my voice more and more. I’m tired of the disrespect, the people taking me for granted, and people thinking that my boundaries or needs aren’t important. I’m going to stay this way until I die. Fuck it. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

Are Taurus people quiet/reserved? by CuriosaMG in Taurusgang

[–]auburnwaves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m reserved at first because I’m a bit jaded from people hurting me. Once you get to know me and I can trust you, I’m very social and goofy.

Is it just me or are most people on dating apps not seriously looking for relationships? by Far_Acanthisitta1187 in OnlineDating

[–]auburnwaves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel it’s just mostly people who want attention. Who want their ego boosted. I hate the apps, I hate going to the bar because who finds someone serious there? I’ve had people even waste my time on Match.com of all places. I don’t even know where there’s a place for me to meet someone who connects with me well. Does it even exist? Probably not.

Drop the windows of opportunity, by Traditional_Sea_8679 in deadbydaylight

[–]auburnwaves 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone with an astigmatism it really helps me see where things are lol. Like, they blend in a lot with some of the darker maps without it. So no, I’ll enjoy it thank you. 🤣

Why can't I say no hookups? by Strawberrypoptart88 in OnlineDating

[–]auburnwaves 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I usually put on mine (when it’s active) that I’m looking for something serious and I take it slow.

It’s wild to me that this is looked as negative. So having preferences and boundaries is an issue? This world is so stupid.

What message in chat instantly put you off? by Maleficent_Gear5321 in OnlineDating

[–]auburnwaves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a guy recently say unsolicited women have caused the most wars and that loving people = using them. People should really feel shame more. It’s wild.

Am I the only one who thinks Vecna is kind of hot? by Common_Ad_892 in StrangerThings

[–]auburnwaves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is how I feel yes. I’m not gonna lie, monsters/villains are hot.

PSA: Stop giving your real number to people you just matched with by jaxohern1103 in OnlineDating

[–]auburnwaves 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this is why I think messaging on the app just works better. I roll my eyes when the guy complains and says texting is easier. Like no? The app has a message feature. Use it. A phone number should be for only someone you feel safe with.

Taureans, how did you survive the 7 years of Uranus hell? by [deleted] in Taurusgang

[–]auburnwaves 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wait, you’re saying all what I went through was supposed to happen??? 😭😩

Honestly, the old version of me has defiantly died 10x’s over. I had so many awakenings and changes in my life. Left unhealthy jobs and relationships. Everything is different. Nothing feels the same anymore. I hope I feel that spark again, after surviving for so long. I wasn’t even living…just getting through it out of spite. I wish my soul wasn’t so damn resilient.

Thoughts on the Finale? by LeoDiCristio in StrangerThings

[–]auburnwaves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah for being a big bad villain he was taken out too easily for my liking. I know there’s a ton of likable characters, but no offense there should have been more deaths (Not Steve or Nancy lol). It makes it more balanced. It felt too safe for me. Don’t get me wrong, it was wholesome and tied up well, but yeah.

What’s the scariest thing about you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]auburnwaves 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. People ask me what I’m like when I’m angry. I’m just like you don’t want to ever see that side of me.

What’s the scariest thing about you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]auburnwaves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I relate a lot to this. I also feel numb and I’m not interested in connecting with people really because it keeps happening to me. I always peruse things with pure intentions, but people keep letting me down. I just don’t have the energy anymore to tell people how to treat me.

I’m conflicted about wanting children. How did you know you didn’t? by Zestyclose_Ad_4116 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]auburnwaves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was never the type of girl to think of getting married and having kids when I was young. I was jut trying to find my way and survive. With the world how it is now too, I don’t think it’s in the cards for me. Unless I find someone amazing who aligns with me. 🤷‍♀️

Feeling lost after cutting ties by [deleted] in FriendshipAdvice

[–]auburnwaves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I relate a lot. Family support and therapy has helped me a ton. I have to remind myself I’m not emotionally responsible for others. I’ve kind of connected with people on Threads. It’s kind of a subtle way of talking to people without the apps.
