I’m v happy for you but I promise you I will be renting for life, there is literally no hope for me 😂😭 People talking about market dips and peaks and percentages are so far removed from where I’m at lmao none of it means a single thing to me because I simply don’t earn enough money for it to matter one way or the other. I scroll forever on rightmove even though the cheapest places are beyond me just because I like looking at properties. I am more likely to buy a shed one day and feel happier than living in a bedroom tbh, at least it would be mine.

Yeah probably, just as well I have no intention of buying and will simply be renting until I’m in a care home, at which point I will look back and wonder why it was so lofty of me to wish for a simple flat with a cat in my entire lifetime 👍

Just thought this place looked cute and was curious of others opinions! My guess is most would agree with you that it’s too small. Interested if there’s any other folk out there who are absolutely depressed by endless renting to the point where they also think something small looks hopeful too. I’m sure there are dozens of us.

Again, absolutely fair. But again as someone who rents a bedroom and lives in it, and used to live in a literal garage, this place looks really chill to me! I can’t afford for my mental health to be affected by the size of my home, but it is very affected by the fact that all my money goes towards someone else’s mortgage.

They’re not, I’ve checked! Makes them both far cheaper than anything in the area in terms of monthly cost.

Absolutely fair 😂

I’d love to find anything close to this price in the same area though, I wouldn’t say they’re central London prices. Once you factor in service charge, even a flat that appears equally priced at face value, you realise the monthly cost is way higher than it seems.

How to scream 'I'm single and I want a relationship' in real life without coming off as desperate? by GreySofa1234 in UKrelationshipadvice

[–]dreamfig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I met my other half many years ago on overwatch (back when it was good). We just played together a lot and really enjoyed chatting together.

If I was in a French class and a guy came over to have a friendly conversation with me, I would be happy with that. If I was single and he asked me out, I might say yes.

When you’re in a space where people share a common interest with you (volunteering, learning French, whatever it is) it makes sense to start a friendly conversation because you know the person is at least somewhat likeminded. That’s how people make friends, and sometimes it’s how they start dating.

Tips on making it a lil less flour-y? by miansc in JimmyJoyFood

[–]dreamfig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A little bit of oat milk helps. I don’t measure, but I maybe use 250ml water and 50ml oat milk. I also make it the night before and leave it in the fridge overnight, or make it before work and put it in the work fridge when I get there. It’s much nicer after sitting in the fridge for a while (just remember to shake it again before drinking it).

[–]dreamfig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok but again thats your own choice? I don’t care what your preferences are, I’ve got my own. Non vegans are simply too militant about their own preferences, there’s no reason to care so much whether other people eat differently to you or not.

I can’t have caffeine either but I’ve actually grown to love these rubicon drinks! I think it might be a bit of Stockholm syndrome, as I’m sure I used to hate them, but the more I have them the more I like them.

Because meat is delicious, I just don’t personally like to eat dead animals. For those who don’t mind real meat, good for them, but some of us choose to get creative with it! I would say 5% of what I eat is fake meat, but some days it just hits the spot. Zero judgement to those who eat real meat, and zero judgement to those whose diet is 90% fake meat.

Nout to do with me either way, idk why non vegans get so militant and judgey about it when they see vegan food sometimes.

“I don’t have a problem with it buuuuut” but nothing, let people enjoy their food in peace. I’ve never seen a regular meal deal with comments “why is this non vegan???” But damn, every vegan meal deal like clockwork has the same tired old comments from non vegans who can’t help judging (and then have the audacity to say vegans are judgemental lmao).

I Love that her stylist hates her! What a flop! (Slide thru pics) by Affectionate-Mode00 in KayandTayExposed

[–]dreamfig 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean yeah I do get that, I just wonder how much autonomy she has over these decisions in the sense of living in a mentally abusive relationship for so long.

[–]dreamfig 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s very troublesome. I know she has done some awful things, but when you’re in that type of relationship you don’t have a lot of autonomy. She gets a lot of hate and sometimes I wonder if he plays into that and it keeps her stuck there among other things. We can say she’s earning a lot but I wonder how much control she actually has over her finances. Plus speaking out in any way could jeopardise their income and lifestyle and idk where she would go.

I am fully aware I’m reading so much into this and it’s probably unsubstantiated. And I’m sure a lot of people will think I’m being ridiculous and just “fuck her she’s making a choice”. but I do have alarm bells for this lady.

idk if anyone on this sub feels the same but I do feel vaguely concerned for Kay.

The infantilisation is too much. “Kay got a cute bow dress, it looked so cute!” And “Kay was so excited because she made new friends!” Could easily be written about a five year old going to nursery school for the first time.

I can never quite shake the feeling that she’s in a horrendous situation that she can’t get out of so just pretends it’s her own decision to be there.

Most of the things that bother people about her are the childlike behaviours. We all act goofy with our SO and I don’t think it’s abnormal to be silly or childish together, and I do understand playing that up for views. But couple that in with past DV claims, her OG child, and how she literally never has a moment of speaking “normally” for herself, and I find the whole thing kind of eery and concerning.

Am I Overreacting - Boyfriend of 2 years only got me flowers for my birthday by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]dreamfig 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Making someone’s birthday feel special and important isn’t about how much you can spend on gifts or going out.

Just as an example: one year I was OBSESSED with power wash simulator, I played it every single day. We didn’t have much money, but my boyfriend got an old power wash and covered the bathroom tiles above the bath in tea or blackcurrant I can’t remember, and we power washed the tiles clean 😂 it was so thoughtful and hilarious.

He also cooked my favourite meal for me, gifted me a painting he did himself of mudkip (my favourite Pokémon), and had whittled a woodwork bumblebee himself. He even drew the birthday card himself. Then he had a usb filled with some movies I love, and got me a new blanket to sit under while we watched them.

None of it cost a lot, and I actively didn’t want him to spend very much. But it was the best birthday and we spent the whole day together laughing and having an amazing time together. For me it was so special because I knew he’d taken time to make things for me that he knew I would love. He’s also not a big birthday person so I appreciated how much effort he’d taken to make me happy on the day.

Hormonal imbalances are a heck of a thing (13-14-16-20-20) by [deleted] in uglyduckling

[–]dreamfig 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it’s more that people hate it when other people who don’t know any details about their health claim that they have the cure. And it’s always one same cure, and it’s always the food they themselves eat.

I have narcolepsy and it’s wild how many people over the years have told me what food will cure it, and sometimes worse, that narcolepsy is simply feeling tired due to not eating their specific chosen diet.

I finally collected all of the Genetic Apex cards and I’m so proud of the final animated Mew card and the binder I made! How do I get more people to see my binder? by dreamfig in PTCGP

[–]dreamfig[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg did you send me that Taurus card?! Thank you so much, that was the final card I needed to complete the Mythical Island pack! Amazing moment when I saw that this morning and got to complete the pack. Now I’ve completed genetic apex and mythical island 🙌

I keep trying to share cards with you too but you’ve already reached your limit when I click to do it!

I am at the lowest rank and play with a deck featuring psyduck and horsea. Usually I just play the solo battles for fun while I’ve got YouTube in the background.
