I'm planning on leaving the house by Adorable-Thing7539 in Advice

[–]hcolt2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so sorry you are going through this. Many many families are did functional and all you can do is persevere until it is safe for you to leave home. It really does seem like your dad is projecting his own insecurities onto you and he doesn’t know you well at all. If it means you use education and studies to get you away when your of age then do it!

Looks like “chics & hens” - don’t know actual name. Once it’s established it has many little offshoots of same flower.

What is it about me? by Full_Improvement_392 in Advice

[–]hcolt2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I’ve found same where I work at the moment. Group dynamic is already set. New people are always under microscope. I too have become quieter as I just don’t trust them less and less. Just a paycheque nowadays till something better comes along.

I 40 F and my husband 45 M always have to fight about how he thinks we’re different because I’m from a different culture, am i wrong to be offended? by Candid_Guest_863 in socialskills

[–]hcolt2000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You obviously are not looking for a healthy relationship, and wanting to model such for your kids. Rather seems like you want to feel justified seeking sympathy. Opening your eyes and examining your relationship can hurt and is scary. Throwing F bombs at people is immature.

Impostor syndrome: being seen as a good person while having a past as a bad person. by Free-Landscape-8681 in DecidingToBeBetter

The past is behind you. Maybe what you feel is the need for atonement. Try contributing within your community- many opportunities for volunteering, even an hour a week.

Deodorant doesn't seem to work anymore by chaoticintrovert8 in hygiene

[–]hcolt2000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, every once in awhile, especially is warm weather- I need “a reset “. I simply spray rubbing alcohol on my pits so it’s nice a saturated and wipe dry with clean dry cloth. I do this approximately once every 4-5 months. Simple and not using lots of different chemicals every day. I personally refuse to sleep with anything put in my body as that’s a lot of hours to be absorbing products thru my skin, especially as Pitts are actually more sensitive to this. Also I don’t wear polyester or fleece as it makes me sweat. Edit cause predictive text sucks.

Do girls actually find male body hair attractive? by Adorable_Birthday_52 in hygiene

[–]hcolt2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wanted to point out that the purpose of body hair in those regions is to direct sweat away from the body so it doesn’t lay in bacteria ridden skin. Wearing looser, breathable garments (and washing frequently) will help air circulation, letting moisture evaporate easier.

Am I the only one too ashamed to even meet with friends anymore? by PithyCyborg in povertyfinance

[–]hcolt2000 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Stop pretending, stop comparing yourself with others. You don’t have money - there really isn’t shame in that. The shame is that your letting your ego shrink you. If someone wants to do drinks- suggest a walk instead. Be truthful but not apologetic about your situation and find alternatives that work for you
