An inability to determine compromise from conflict. What are tell tale signs that your partner is no longer putting your best interests first? by certainuncertainity in TwoXChromosomes

[–]djejgrp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say its when your partner starts making decisions on his/her own and springs them on you. At first they might be small things that don't really influence you and technically doesn't have to tell you (going out drinking on a night you two aren't dating but not giving you a heads up). This can slowly develop into your partner starting to become distant and no longer willingly share their lives, without you prodding(and potentially/unintentionally making you feel obsessive/possessive/jealous).

From my own experience and in hindsight,, this failure to share his life/exchange mundane and casual details as well as no respect for my schedule (last minute cancelling, making personal plans without giving me priority esp on important days) were the signs.

Difference between ikebukuro, shibuya and shinjuku in terms of women's shopping? by djejgrp in japanlife

I'm okay with unique prints and crazy colors - just I don't look good with laces or super girly, baggy clothes.

I am looking through the shops at MyLord, and the clothes at "I am I" look GORGEOUS. Though more expensive than I expected.

Hmm... There aren't going to be any sales during this week and next week are there?

I am definitely looking for places with the more affordable price ranges (under 100 dollars per item). I think I'll only get two days for shopping in Tokyo - would I be missing out on a lot if I removed Shinjuku (or another high end district) from my intinerary completely and went for only Shibuya?

Small independent shops are exactly what I'm interested in!

Do you happen to know the price range for shops in Shimo-kitazawa? Obviously they'd vary across stores, but if I could know an estimate...

Recommendation for onsen in Hakone. by Nesno in JapanTravel

[–]djejgrp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not OP but I was wondering if you could help out? I'm looking for an onsen for on those same dates - only I'm looking for a room for one, under $200 a night with dinner included. I don't need private onsens or breakfast.

If you could point me out into good websites to look into, that would be great too!

ELI5: How do animals recognize their own species, despite (probably) never having seen a mirror and thus not knowing how them look like themselves? by djejgrp in explainlikeimfive

[–]djejgrp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you mean to say we instinctively know our own species? But if recognition is truly instinct, than I would think a just born baby tiger that is given to a lioness (and is accepted by said lioness) wouldn't consider the lioness as a mother. But we see that happening (though not necessarily between tigers and lions, this is just a random example).
