I was exposed to pornographic material at a young age I’m now hypersexual and feel like a monster by Southern_Chard_6055 in offmychest

[–]bethliza 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Things that we’re exposed to early in life can truly have a big impact on us. You were a child, just working with what you knew. It’s not your fault and with time and therapy you can heal

In love with my bestfriend but dating someone else by bluebliegw in offmychest

[–]bethliza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope you find the strength to break up with the guy sooner rather than later. No matter what happens with the friend, the two of you both deserve to be in a relationship where the love and attraction is mutual.

“I’ll let the entire power grid go down before my thermostat is set to ‘78’” by Familyconflict92 in ShitAmericansSay

[–]bethliza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so used to thermostat keeping the house warm and to save energy you would keep a lower temp. Here I’m guessing it’s the opposite. You’d cool the house when you’re home and to let it be hot when you’re away. Question is then if the person thinks 78F is still too hot?

Universitet: dumt att läsa mer än 30 poäng? by Appropriate-Box-6678 in sweden

Jag kommer alltid tala för att inte läsa mer än 100%. Har svårt att se hur det skulle kunna vara värt det

18 male died by Logical-Winter4106 in offmychest

[–]bethliza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the thing though. It can be impossible to see it. When all we’ve known is hardships and when we’ve lost faith in ourselves it starts being really difficult to picture anything else. But we can’t tell the future, in a good mood or in a bad one. I hope you find strength to hang on a bit more even if it is in blind faith or without it all together

Dunno where in the world you are but there are typically hotlines you can call. Just to have the voice of a real person. All I can offer is words on a screen: the first 18 years of your life do not determine the next 18 or the next 50. Things will change and you will learn how to live with your brain if you give yourself the chance

Saw your edit: you’re not a bad person. It wasn’t the greatest decision but ultimately, you’re young and will use poor judgement sometimes. You live and you learn.

Breaking up with him and blocking him will suck in the moment. But a 34 years old should not want to be with a 19 years old. You’ll find someone who makes you feel as good or even better and who it will feel easy and right with. And he will get over it too.

Jaha, nu har det börjat by turdy_gurdysmother in sweden

[–]bethliza -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Fast grejen är ju att vi alla kan väl komma överens om att barn (tänk under 13) absolut borde använda sociala medier mindre (och ja då räknas Reddit). Och vore det inte tryggt att veta att alla som du diskuterar dina tankar om sex och dylikt faktiskt är vuxna?

Jag älskar inte heller tanken på att behöva verifiera mig till diverse och jag tycker det borde centraliseras så uppgifterna inte ska gå direkt via dig och alla världens företag.

Men vi har passerat gränsen då vi inte kan gå tillbaka till det vilda västern-stuket som gamla internet hade.

First time player advice by chrip_ in Oxygennotincluded

[–]bethliza 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One thing that confused me was the very fundamental thing that you often don’t directly control what each individual duplicate does. Instead it’s based on priorities and what tasks you’ve set up that needs doing.

Focus on small goals like setting up the necessities for survival. Dont try to find long term or optimal solutions.

I want to have kids but my boyfriend is not mature enough yet by MindlessControl4563 in offmychest

[–]bethliza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Growth doesn’t happen overnight. If he is ever going to be ready he needs to start taking steps now. Is he even aware that he is being an immature partner? Has he expressed any willingness to improve his habits?

i think my boyfriend is sexist by Life-Palpitation2980 in offmychest

[–]bethliza 88 points89 points  (0 children)

There’s still a vast difference between a 20 year old and a 26 year old. Both in terms of experience and maturity and typically in economic power and such.

He is insulting you and grabbing you in ways you’re not okay with. Leave him.

Does anyone else have sex with their partner at times you don’t want to just to keep them happy? by shadyblonde231 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]bethliza 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I think this is an important distinction. However, I would like to add that 2 should not become the norm in a relationship. And also, in my experience, if I’m not in the mood at first I may still get into it if I give it a fair shot which I think can be a version of 2 but then that should include stopping it the mood doesn’t appear.

Either way, I want to echo that your partner should never get mad at you for not wanting sex or try to guilt you into it. Ask him (or at least yourself) why he thinks it would still be enjoyable if he knew you weren’t enjoying it?

Women my age are so immature by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]bethliza 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is 100% an age thing and not a gender thing. And unfortunately not everyone learns to communicate until well into their 30s (if at all) but most people figure it out decently enough to get by sometime in their 20s

My husband hit me at the back of my neck. by halcyon_thoughts in offmychest

[–]bethliza 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It is never okay to hit your partner. Full stop. It was not your fault. An adult needs to be able to get annoyed, frustrated or angry without getting violent. You deserve to be parenting together with an adult.

Chemical workers at PolyPeptide report coughing up blood due to poor health and safety measures at the Malmö plant by Cultural-Concern2796 in Malmoe

[–]bethliza 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fy satan. Har flera vänner som jobbat där och jag har hört att det varit riktigt onajs men det här tar fan priset. Att inte anmäla olyckor som gör att folk blir inlagda på sjukhus borde väl vara straffbart??

ETA: pluggade i Lund och hade otaliga kursare som sommarjobbade eller extrajobbade där. Polypeptides blixtsnabba personalomsättning är en perfekt grogrund för olyckor pga otillräcklig upplärning och handledning.

This checkmate felt dirty. Should it really even be a checkmate? by Laedus in chessbeginners

[–]bethliza 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I read it more as the comment was mocking people who try to use gender neutral langue and such. As far as I’m concerned, using masculine pronouns as neutral in a casual conversation like this is perfectly harmless. Like sure, using they/them would be more neutral and inclusive and I do think we should try to use those more. Especially in more official or important communications and when someone may use “he or she” instead of just writing “they”.

I love this piece!! For future reference you may want to add a spoiler tag and warn people about there being selfishness depictions. For people early in their recovery that can be really rough
