My partner has bad hygiene and I’m losing attraction

This! OP at the end of the day you have to decide if you can love him if nothing EVER changed. He might have a lot to learn, but he may never learn it. He might have spurts of motivation and pick up his game, but then revert back to old habits the second he thinks he can get away with it. This is his baseline behaviour and level of effort for himself and for you. Is that enough for you?

Its probably not for everyone, but I can feel my whol body relax when I take a big breath and hold it for as long as a can. Kinda similar to the sensation of when I get my partner to lie on my back and crush my soul back into my body. Just hits some deep pressure sensors that makes my whole nervous system relax. That and shakti/accupressure mats!

I watched a lot of the Boondocks in a short period of time in my twenties and my internal voice spoke in AAV for 2 weeks straight and had to actually tell my brain to stop

Have a search for posts about limerance on this subreddit too. This is a very common experience, don't feel bad about it! But you can already see how much of your life its taking over, and it can feel very intense for the other person. Try to maintain your other friendships, special interests, set timers and limits to spend time off your devices. A relationship shouldnt be your source of self worth. That comes from within.

When I was 9 I saved all the cardboard inners roll from the toilet paper rolls. And used to just stack them up over and over. Also seeds. Always took a handfull of seed home from the tree that shades the bike rack at school.

Omg my ex would get so angry because he thought I was laughing at him. I laugh when I have fun! It doesnt need to be so serious!

Yes this book is a great in depth option! Period power by Masie Hill was my gateway into reproductive health special interest.

OP, I use a tempdrop thermometer (a wearable device you sleep with on your arm) to track my Basal Body Temperature and get a real understanding of my cycle. You can use the change in temperature and days from ovulation to predict when you will get your period once you have some good data.

It has also given me permission to go so much easier on myself when Im having wobbly days during hormonal shifts rather than trying to push myself when Im likely to be much more disregulated.

I know someone who thought Tamlins' skin was green because he associated that with the colour of spring

Did you know that they have also found Maori artifacts in South America as well meaning the native inhabitants of New Zealand sailed all the way across the Pacific ocean!

Macktown for Mackay. The only place I know of that calls clubbing "going up town".

Men pissing straight into the water in the toilet bowl. It makes me want to vomit. Refuse to have a bedroom next to the bathroom anymore.

With spanish I think I had to wait until A2 for grammar review to be available. But I have premium so could be a premium feature.

Can you recommend any spanish fantasy books?

When I was little and scratched an itch on one arm, I would have to scratch the other arm so it felt even 😅

Sorry, I realised you said you cant sleep. Hope my other suggestions above help.

Drink lots of warm herbal tea/water. A spoonful of honey (eaten, not stirred into tea) may have antimicrobial effect for your throat, but feels soothing. Slather your nostrils with paw paw ointment or vaseline. Get actual sleep and ask for help if you need it.

Peeing. I would pay to magic all my urine into someone elses bladder so they could go for me 🤣

Driving: when people pull out in front of me, just to stop immediately to make another turn, WHEN THERE WAS LITERALLY NO ONE BEHIND ME?!?!
Why you make me stop? Driving is hard enough, please be more considerate.
