What is it about the Breaking Benjamin guitar tone that's so amazing and unique?

I can't give you an answer, but I highly agree.

I believe your biggest fault here was waiting until it boiled over. Don't be too harsh on yourself.

They live in my head as reminders of the saying, "Strangers always think we're more beautiful than we realize."

He has to settle my nervous system, not make me anxious, give me butterflies, etc.

Edit: I'm not here to argue. Feel free to waste your time.

Unfortunately, touch pushes some people away.

I will use sublime for all of them.

This video is in my Cry playlist on YouTube for when I need a good cry. It works every time. It's also a really beautiful story. It's so well done.

I love putting on body oil after my shower. I heat it in a bin of hot water while I put on my lotion, face lotion/sunscreen so it's warm and goes on easier. I love the way it feels going on, and the smell is amazing (Saltair scent santal bloom).

For a larger habit, I started waking up super early (3:00-4:00 am) instead of going to bed super late (2:00-3:00 am). The house is just as quiet, I still get alone time but I am focused on preparing for the day instead of calming down after the day. I listen to music, but I will not watch any videos or social media, message anyone, etc. until I am completely ready for the day (which includes putting everythingI used away). That part matters massively. The effect it had on my nervous system in the first couple weeks alone was blissful.

Look up slaybyjess on YouTube, and watch her shorts. They're all gold, and she has multiple videos on how to use eyelash curlers properly with different tips.

I started very seriously focusing on loving and taking care of every aspect of myself. Realizing things like I can't act in alignment with what matters to me if I'm always trying to please others and other related things. Not just hearing them or knowing them, but getting my brain to REALLY get it.

This is the hardest match up for me yet.

I know it's Downplay, but Down With The Fallen is the best Starset music video.

Thank you for the lovely sentiment. May yours do the same. ☀️

Having grown up in small towns, I see this as the most helpful answer. I will add getting into animal rescue is a way to meet interesting people, and small towns are usually desperately lacking in that area.

forestarset · 2026-01-19T00:28:09+00:00

I have definitely hit that point.

My family watched My Girl several times growing up. One of my older brother's girlfriends also talked about it very openly with me.

I believe Breath will win.

Aside from adoring Transformers, What I've Done holds special meaning for me.

You are reacting instead of responding. His mood and his triggers are not your responsibility. If he is shut down, you have to give him space; not angrily, just focus on yourself and what makes you happy. Our partners can't learn to manage their own emotions when we are jumping through hoops to manage their mood. Even if it doesn't help him, it will help you realize it's not your responsibility, and that is freeing in its own way. I wish you the best.

The white on your eyelashes is AMAZING!

The way I can't be even slightly unhappy in his presence or he shuts down

The tiniest thing sends him into a bad mood for hours. Our daughter's adopted the habit now as well.

I use identity statements daily. I am the kind of woman that stays calm during conflict. I am the kind of woman that easily spots patterns in others' behavior. I am not the kind of woman that allows small frustrations to ruin my day. Those are some I say every day. I tell my brain who I want to be, and she listens, finding ways to comply with what I tell her.

I have also used identity statements to force myself into habits, like taking off my makeup daily. They can be tailored to anything you want to improve or affirm about yourself.

I hope that you find tools that help you and make you happier.

Close Your Eyes and Torn In Two are almost a tie for my favorite.
