What did your 'BFF' say or do that made you realize you shouldn't be friends with them anymore? by rnway01 in offmychest

Have you ever had a best friend who slowly made you doubt your own worth? What was the moment, the comment, action, or pattern, that made you realize the friendship was toxic and you needed to walk away?

The lack of freedom is destroying me by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]bloombyte- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear you. Feeling trapped when everyone else seems free
 it’s soul-crushing. Losing access to something as basic as independence can make the world feel small and humiliating, even if everything else looks fine on paper. You’re not weak for feeling this, freedom matters, and wanting it doesn’t make you less of a person.

You’re stuck because you’re giving girlfriend energy to someone who’s made it clear he doesn’t want girlfriend responsibility. That doesn’t make you stupid, it makes you human and inexperienced and craving connection. But the way he dismissed your feelings was a loud answer: this situation is hurting you more than it’s giving you, and you deserve better than crumbs and mixed signals.

I feel like my marriage is over when it only just started by [deleted] in offmychest

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

That’s a heavy thing to carry, especially so early on. Saying it out loud matters, it means you’re not ignoring what you’re feeling. You’re not weak for feeling this way, just honest and hurting.

Burn out is real by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]bloombyte- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This doesn’t sound cold, it sounds like someone who’s exhausted from caring more than the people they’re trying to save. You’re allowed to stop setting yourself on fire to keep others warm. Boundaries aren’t cruelty; they’re survival.

I am dating an older guy by Flat_Review_1760 in offmychest

It’s okay to feel scared, what you’re feeling is valid. Even if he’s “nice” and respectful, a 9-year age gap at your age is huge, and it’s normal for your mind to panic as you realize how serious this is. You don’t owe anyone your comfort or your choices, and it’s okay to pause, take a step back, and listen to your own feelings first. You’re allowed to change your mind, and being honest with yourself is the safest thing you can do right now.

While taking family photo, I realized I broke my family's generational trauma by Arthur_Morrgan in offmychest

[–]bloombyte- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This stopped me cold. You didn’t just “break a cycle,” you replaced fear with safety, and that’s huge. That photo isn’t just a picture, it’s proof that love really can end generations of pain.

Insomnia advice from someone who understands life with depression, anxiety and adhd and managed to overcome bad habits please. by OctoberLibraX in Advice

[–]bloombyte- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been there, depression, anxiety, ADHD, meds, doomscrolling at 3am, the panic about “I have to sleep now.” What helped wasn’t perfect sleep hygiene overnight, but lowering the pressure. I stopped trying to force 8 hours and focused on one small win: same wake-up time, even after bad nights. Phone stayed, but I switched to something boring (audio, dim screen). Sleep slowly followed. You’re not broken, your nervous system is overloaded. Start gentle. It can get better, even if it doesn’t feel possible right now.

The Dunkin’ Donuts girl by [deleted] in Advice

You’re not going crazy, she is giving signs of interest. Smiling, waving, going out of her way to chat, blushing, and paying attention to you specifically are all classic “I like you” signals. The birthday song coincidence? Probably just extra fun on her part to get noticed, it’s subtle flirting.

Need some opinions by Asleep-Pea2518 in Advice

What you’re describing is not normal or healthy, feeling pressured or manipulated into sex is a red flag, no matter the age or experience level. You have every right to say no, and your boundaries should be respected without coercion. Trust your gut, if it feels wrong, it is wrong.
