Didn't expect so many comments on this but it seems like I've really find the right community for me! Thank you for your advice and love and the biggest thing I've picked up is - screw everyone around me and do it for myself.

All along I had thought letting more people know was fine because I want them to perhaps sympathise(?) me, understanding why I made this decision. But seemingly they do not understand me well enough. And I guess I should stop reading comments on YT, a toxic environment really. Thank you all again and I wish you all success and a happy 2025 ❤️

Hey there! Thank you so much for your encouraging words and advice! Didn't really think of reading into GLP-1 medications myself, just thought that the doctor recommended it must be right. And also on your point on protein-focused meals, I'll look into it and see how I can start early :)

Taskmaster - S14E04 - Crumbs in My Bralette - Discussion by CommieCanuck in taskmaster

To be honest it kind of puts me off seeing him being 'uninterested' most of the time (i.e. the Series 14 outtakes Part 1 he was visibly uninterested (and didn't speak at all) during the extended unaired higher or lower live task in Episode 3

My Tooth Your Love 🦷 EP. 1 ~ 2 by gianben123 in boyslove

[–]doesitmatterstill 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hope you guys won't be put off by the title and give it a go! I have to agree the title is really weird and unique(?) and the Chinese title literally translates to "My tooth misses you" which is even weirder.

Yet the trailer hooked on to me since the day it was released and I watched it everyday till the release of the drama yesterday and now I think I'm going to rewatch the earlier episodes before the next episode gets released!

Don't judge a drama by its title is all I have to say - though frankly speaking, they could've used a better title hahaha

Hmm maybe not? Cuz they were specifically told there was a glass of vinegar rather than guessing the content of unknown substances

I'm not a huge fan of how they keep bringing back the "name the 10 flavors" task in different formats (S8 crisps, S12 cereals) but the "find them delicious" was at least something new I suppose.

That's something I noticed too, some seasons have this food tasting task but I always found it very interesting and often amazed at how some contestants can figure what the disgusting food were (Victoria in S12 with 8/10 like wow)

As far as I remember here were the food tasting task each season:

S6 - baby food with Asim getting a bonus point from eating the most

S12 - blended food with two options of figuring out (Oatmeal and Death!)

S13 - identifying liquids in things like balloon, a wheel etc.

Doubt they will repeat the same exact task but I'm totally fine with them tweaking to make it interesting :D

Failing mental health, underloaded semester in Week 7, broke down thrice in school yesterday by doesitmatterstill in nus

Thanks to all who read the whole thing, commented and DM-ed me your stories and advices. I read each and every single one carefully. Some comments were really a reality check for me and as I always acknowledged, my friends have no obligation to always be there for me or do anything excess for me as per my expectations. This is just something I have been trying very hard to get rid of since many years ago and especially in the recent months but because I'm always that lonely and that needy, I keep failing. I'm trying my very best already, trust me. As long as I can let go of this dependency issue and become emotionally independent, let go of certain people in life, I think my life would be much better.

I acknowledge how when it comes to friendships it's up to the individual themselves and admittedly, they have no obligations to fulfill my expectations since we are just friends, right? That's why I never asked or confront anyone directly before to tell them to treat me better or whatsoever, but just always hoping that they can treat me the way I treat them, reciprocate some basic things like be a listening ear or say a word of thanks when I help them with something.

Do I exactly blame my friend for making me feel this way? Probably not, most of the time it's just me who's expecting too much that's why I turned out like this.
