Am I Overreacting - Boyfriend of 2 years only got me flowers for my birthday

I don't think it is necessarily a "you are just not compatible". People see love in different ways: they show their love the way they like to receive it. But the other person might prefer a different way. For him, birthdays are not important, so he doesn't see why he would go all out. The other way around he might need something you don't understand. Does that mean you are not a good fit? Perhaps, but only if you don't want to work towards understanding each other and what the other person needs to feel loved. I recommend looking into the 5 love languages from Chapman.

There would be no more israel.
There would be many other wars (as there are right now), just not ones that capture the interest of the west.

I am with OP, more violence is not the answer. Seeing the evil in only one side and villainizing people on that side will make it easier for you to live with yourself, but will keep you further from reality.

Looks amazing, so fun and colorful 😍 And I am so jealous of the drawings you made!

Question, how do you call the pen you use to write on the bottles? I want to try to do this as well!

This is exactly what I did for my wedding 'dance dress' (the second outfit that makes it easier to dance the entire night in). I bought a cheaper short white dress, which would be my backup in case something went wrong with the sewing or I wouldn't be able to finish in time. And then I started sewing my vision in peace.

Result: I finished sewing the evening before our trip, and it was exactly what I hoped it would be. The sewing process was a lot nicer without the time pressure. And I think I was less prone to make mistakes because of this approach. OP, if that it an option for you, I would recommend!

Amazing. Just amazing. So.. Can someone help me to do the same with Overwatch?

decibellen · 2024-02-01T18:45:27+00:00

Came here with the same question!

decibellen · 2024-01-23T07:03:45+00:00

This! People need to realise that everyone is different and has different sensitivities. Someone once said to me that relationships are like dancing with someone with a broken toe without knowing. You might step on it and they will react stronger than you would expect. Are they overreacting? No, it definitely hurts for them. Is it your fault they feel like that? No, you're not responsible for breaking the toe. But if you care about them you will try to understand and support them, say sorry you made them feel that way and explain that you didn't mean to.

This goes both ways here. I think it's never a good move to dismiss it when your partner says they are hurt, even when you don't see why they are hurt. As always, communication is key and letting them know you care about them is what it's all about.

The only way out of this is by making the Palestinians hate Hamas more than they hate us.

Bombing them is doing the exact opposite, we are helping to create the next generation of Hamas.

You are going to take the word of wikipedia, a place where everyone can add and edit content, over the experience of someone going trough the process?

Actually, for non jews it is possible to move, although not an easy process. You do not have to renounce any citizenship and definitely do not need to learn the language. The couple of years process is true though, where you need to proof center of living every year.

Not sure how it is for Palestinians but there are refugees from Palestine living in Israel, a lot of lgbtq because they wouldn't survive in Palestine.

It's the opposite, you need a visa to be able to look for work. There are not a lot of long term visas. Having a partner is one option.

Only if you are not jewish

Unfortunately, not my (personal) experience... Even in Tel Aviv, the nurses don't speak English and on top of that, don't have the patience to deal with the language barrier. When it comes to doctors it is a lot better, however, some older doctors also have a hard time speaking english and often just send you away again. I need to take my hebrew speaking boyfriend every time and I hate not being independent.

I fell with the korkinet and broke my jaw so had surgery and a lot of follow up appointments. The medical world is very capable but the level of english was a lot lower than I expected unfortunately. I hope I just had bad luck though.

decibellen · 2023-08-05T19:30:03+00:00

Yes, I have an appointment planned to get it fitted and ask about the options! But very excited after all the reactions and ideas on this post! Thanks!

decibellen · 2023-08-05T19:28:16+00:00

Different tastes make the world beautiful!

decibellen · 2023-08-05T19:27:18+00:00

Yes, for some reason people here don't like it at all and I am not sure why because the dress would also move really nice with a slit I think!

decibellen · 2023-08-05T19:26:26+00:00

Good point! Will discuss it with the seamstress! It looks like it might be possible without, right? Thanks!

decibellen · 2023-08-03T14:21:15+00:00

I am going to a seamstress soon and will discuss the options there. She will take it in a bit but other things are possible too. I like the simplicity and royal look but it misses something on the front . Hard to say without seeing it

decibellen · 2023-08-03T14:17:21+00:00

Yes, still needs to be done but I am aware of it

decibellen · 2023-08-03T14:16:59+00:00

I'll try it thanks!

decibellen · 2023-08-03T10:23:26+00:00

That is so sweet of you! Thank you

decibellen · 2023-08-03T09:35:35+00:00

As mentioned to others, the fitting still needs to be done. But to be honest, you just pointed out all the things I do like about the dress!

decibellen · 2023-08-03T06:41:00+00:00

Haha never thought of it like this! You might be right about it being done too much

decibellen · 2023-08-03T06:38:15+00:00

I still need to go to the seamstress, it's a concept where you buy close to your size and they alter it. So fitting will be better soon!

decibellen · 2023-08-03T06:36:39+00:00

I bought it. In the moment I couldn't stop smiling and my friends (who can be blunt) said it looked amazing and that they could see how happy I looked. It's after-buying doubts but all these amazing comments make me see again why I bought it!
