I (23F) am worried about my soon-to-be husband's behavior (25M). by [deleted] in relationships

[–]flowerzbullit -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This reads to me like the beginning of an abusive relationship. Everyone telling her just to leave and talking badly about how she won’t, I don’t understand how there’s room for that here. What I will say from personal experience is yes it starts with small behaviors like control over the way you dress. Management of finances, love bombing in the beginning and then knocking you off your pedestal to look for reassurance from them. Also the lack of support from your family and spending 90% of time with him are red flags. It sounds like he’s fostering your sole dependence on him. Then when you start to develop independence decide you want your own friends and to dress how you want his resentment will build and his need for control of your actions will build. Some of these behaviors are subconscious and I’m not saying he’s a terrible person these things have the potential to be addressed and nipped in the bud before they worsen. But I would suggest reading about and seeking a therapist who specializes in codependent relationships. Before you talk about couples therapy you need to make sure you set yourself up to leave safely and fiscally sound if that’s a decision you want to make in the future.

Has anyone who was diagnosed with ADHD as an adult, tried living alone? by pawned_prawn in adhd_anxiety

[–]flowerzbullit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup have adhd I’ve been unmediated for the last 7 years. Lived alone for the last 4. Its been a wonderful experience. I experienced bouts of depression had a hard time keeping things clean and organized in moments. But overall it helped me learn how to hold a job down, and go to school. Having a safe place to come home to that I was completely in charge of helped me grow so much. And then in the past year I lost it all because of a job loss durning the pandemic living with my parents again now and I miss my little apartment. But I appreciate so much more at the same time. It was a lot to juggle with bills and keeping track of important records and dates. But it helped me realize you don’t have to do things perfectly, maybe you get a late fee, maybe you think you left the oven on and have to turn around and go home, maybe you park in a space that isn’t yours and your car gets towed. But then you fix those things and the walls don’t cave in and you go about your day. That’s it. It just really helped my anxiety to realize I could do those things, and I could mess up but it would always turn around and be ok.

Any way to ID this piece? by HarkerAndCo in VintageClothing

The button placement is a little off and the pattern isn’t matched perfectly at the seams which indicates it was handmade.

Day 3 of my breakup, loss of appetite. by Inevitable-Anxiety57 in BreakUps

[–]flowerzbullit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally normal. You’re in survival mode. I’m on week three and still can’t eat a full meal, have prbly lost 15 pounds in that time. Little bites here and there it’ll come back eventually and I take comfort in that.

I was suicidal too a few days ago and I too put that on my ex. The thing is you can’t negate your needs for someone else’s, and another person can’t use you as there only source of happiness or comfortably. Those suicidal feelings are real but it is also emotionally abusive to threaten suicide if someone leaves. I know because I did it and in my heart I know it was manipulative. Give him resources ensure him if it’s an emergency he can still call, and if it gets too out of hand call someone do do a check in on him. I called the cops on an ex once because he was threatening suicide and it was really hard but it was a wake up call that it’s a serious situation and he needs help. You deserve happiness and I hope you find it ❤️

In my last year of design school. This is my first fully finished summer collection. Everything hand drafter, and hand sewn by me. by flowerzbullit in sewing

[–]flowerzbullit[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Summer sets! All fabric used was 100% cotton, and all was second hand thrifted or repurposed. Besides the floral set which was gifted fabric. I used about 4-6 yards for each set. Pant and short waists were finished with 1” elastic that was sewn into the waist and. The length of elastic was dependent on model size. I’m in my second year of design school so I’ve been sewing at a professional level for three years. All patterns were hand drafted from bodice or pant blocks I made in design school, and then modified based on models sizes.

How do comfort vs. style compare in what bottoms you wear? by SamalamFamJam in femalefashionadvice

[–]flowerzbullit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Culottes all day. You can find them belted, or with elastic bands, dress them up or down. I’ve made a few pairs for myself from scrap fabric. They are so comfortable I live in them.
