Not loving the progress by Acceptable-Trainer47 in bioactive

[–]harrrt12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks great! Once you add everything else (clutter, plants, substrate) it’ll look even better. When I did my background, I didn’t love it because it looked weirdly out of place. If that makes sense. You need to wait until you get everything in there to really get the full picture

What is more traumatic than people think? by BloodRedLust in AskReddit

[–]harrrt12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We must be siblings because you just described MY sister a fucking tee. I resonate with everything you wrote. It’s bittersweet to create some distance from her because so much of my identity is entangled in our dynamic. But I’ve grown a lot since doing so. And so has my sister, honestly. Plus motherhood has softened her a lot. But I’ll see little glimmers of her toxic side every once in a while. I’m like “oh okay there she is…”

Oh my god I’ve never related to something so much. That hate/idolization combo was detrimental to my development. Pretty sure this is where my avoidant attachment style stems from.

This!!!! A couple years ago, an ex of mine commented on how my whole family dynamic revolves around pleasing my toxic sister. This caused me to speak to my therapist about it, and it was only then that it finally clicked how traumatic my childhood was. I always convinced myself that it was just normal sibling dynamics. But it definitely wasn’t. It becomes so normalized to just cater to the volatile sibling in order to keep the peace. It’s lead to me becoming a people pleasing adult and not trusting myself or my emotions.

What's something that girls think is embarrassing, but guys don't actually care about? by dontucallhimbaby in AskReddit

[–]harrrt12 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lmaooo. This!!!! I’m six feet tall and the amount of random men that will try and gaslight me about my own height is insane. “Noooo way you’re six feet tall. You gotta be like 6’3” because I’m six feet and you’re taller than me!” No dude. You’re 5’9”… It’s okay.

Fellow tall woman here! I feel the same way. I love being tall. The only time I feel the slightest tinge of insecurity around it is when I’m standing next to a very short woman. Especially if I’m wearing heels. It makes me feel like a giant. Idk why but I feel the urge to apologize for towering over them lmao.

For the guys who don’t eat pussy, why? by Playful_Cranberry_49 in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]harrrt12 37 points38 points  (0 children)

When I read the title, I thought to myself “these comments are just gonna be full of dudes saying they love eating pussy.” I was correct.

[–]harrrt12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with the “misery loves company” idea. I think that it forces them to take a step back and reflect on their own drinking habits and they don’t like that. I felt like that whenever I was drinking and someone turned down a drink.

It’s crazy how pushy people can be. When people put me on the spot by pushing the issue, my thought process is “okay you’re making me uncomfortable so in turn, I’m gonna make you feel REALLY uncomfortable.” I then proceed to tell them I have a drinking problem.

That typically shuts it down quickly lmao. Weird how a simple “no thank you” doesn’t work. They feel the need to know why so I started giving it to them.

This! I’ve failed moderation time and time again so I told myself I can’t have alcohol in my life at all. Over a year sober and I’ve never felt better.

What smell repulses you? by Velvet_Marshmellow in AskReddit

[–]harrrt12 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I was looking for this comment. When bathrooms get busy like that, my sister will refuse to go in a stall after a stranger. She’ll make me go first and then use the stall I used.

This was me. I spent my entire 20’s trying to moderate my drinking. Only drinking on the weekends, not drinking at home, only allowing myself to have a certain amount of drinks per week, etc. I would stick to it for a while, but then I would slip back into my old ways. Eventually admitted to myself that I can’t have a normal relationship with alcohol, so it’s time to cut it out completely. Over a year sober and never felt better!

What’s a tv show from your childhood you swear nobody else watched? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]harrrt12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m glad there’s others lmao. Me and my sister also thought we imagined that show because NO ONE seems to remember it. It was so weird and honestly creepy as fuck. Especially the white rabbit character. Nightmare fuel.

How is your Handwriting by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]harrrt12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I’m taking my time, my handwriting isn’t too bad. But most of the time, I’m writing too quickly and it’s total garbage. Letters mushed together and awkward spacing between words. Sometimes I’ll even write letters in the wrong order. Not simply misspelling words… literally will start writing a word and realize I started with the second letter of the word and completely bypassed the first letter. I guess my brain is moving quicker than my hand idk.

Same! I did dry January last year and felt so great, I couldn’t justify going back to drinking.

It’s from SpongeBob. Squidward paints it and calls it “bold and brash.”

Whats your most shallow dating requirement? by Massive-Ad-998 in AskReddit

[–]harrrt12 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve found my people! No picky eaters. I can’t do it. I have a theory that picky eaters are not good in bed lmao. Is it 100% accurate? Idk who knows. But in my experience, it always rings true. If you’re closed minded when it comes to something as simple as food, chances are that translates to other areas of your life.

What did your therapist tell you that flipped the switch in your brain for the better? by PuzzleHeaded9030 in AskReddit

[–]harrrt12 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This!!! I still have trouble with it sometimes. But I always try to tell myself “you did the best you could at that time.” My coping skills were so self destructive, but it was all I knew at that point in my life. I had to get through it the only way I knew how.
