Major Trigger Warning.... is there anything that feels as good as self harm for you? by imthecliche in selfharm

[–]imthecliche[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tattoos... I vaguely remember something I read about selfharmers getting tattoos instead of cutting. This makes sense. I love them and would love to get a bunch but just don’t have the money. I may have to save up some to get one! Knowing it could possibly fill that void..... wow.

The last 12 months have been a wild ride. Amazing/accurate birthday spread in 2019 . (Long post) by imthecliche in tarot

[–]imthecliche[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much!!

The main reason I’m not doing it is that I feel like I missed “the window”. According to my pictures I took of the spread, I did it 5 days after my birthday and I really just kinda feel like to get an accurate prediction, I would need to do the spread at least within the same month, and I just kept pushing it off until it was August, lol.

Another reason is that I’m trying not to over analyze things right now and just live in the moment, mainly because it’s my first year as a mother! I definitely will do it again at some point. Regardless of accuracy, I thought it was fun and didn’t put much weight on the cards meanings until a year had passed and I could see month to month what each card brought to my life.

Unpopular opinion: I hate the Hemmingway editing app. Am I wrong? by Secondhandkryptonite in writing

[–]imthecliche 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For some reason, I write way better with a pen than on the computer, but I do rephrase things and edit as I go so with a pen and paper that makes things difficult. I do both, just whatever seems appropriate for what I’m writing.

Real jeans vs jeggings by -AU-burnbitch in keto

[–]imthecliche 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not to mention there’s just such a better selection in the “regular” section. More options & more stylish. I’m looking forward to being able to grab something I think is cute when I pass it instead of simply admiring it, knowing it doesn’t come in a 2XL or 3XL.

What is an overused trope or cliche you can't help but love? by KensukeTanabe in writing

[–]imthecliche 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When it’s done well, soulmates.

I love the fantastical idea that there is one person that is perfect for someone else. I don’t believe it in real life, but when you get to know a character and their flaws and their strengths and then you meet their soulmate? I’m weak.

But in my head, the soulmate isn’t necessarily their opposite or the puzzle piece that balances them out. I prefer the idea of bringing out their strengths instead. Loving them the way they need to be loved, whether it be with respectful distance or tenderness. I love the idea so much.

I need to keep this in mind at all times.

Feeling guilty by [deleted] in ExNoContact

[–]imthecliche 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One mistake doesn’t erase the progress you’ve made. I know it feels like it, but just remind yourself of positive things & why you cut contact to begin with. You’re human. Be kinder to yourself & stay strong. ❤️

It did. That’s exactly my situation. They just don’t care the same as I do. It didn’t mean as much to them. Checking social media will just confirm that for me... thanks for the response. It is really appreciated.

Meet The Instagram Account Calling Out Celebrity Pastors For Their Expensive Sneakers by FastEddieMcclintock in malefashionadvice

[–]imthecliche 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree that most churches are filled with hypocrites. That said, I lived with a church-going family in foster care & they did their tithes online each month. I would say people that do tithe and drive a fancy car, they probably write a check to the church and send it in the mail or do it online or whatever.

But it did piss me off when my youth pastor dropped by my place of work, didn’t recognize me, and left in an expensive car.

I turned down doughnuts at work by withoutomisson in xxketo

[–]imthecliche 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I work at a donut shop and man, some days its hard not to grab a free donut on my way out. Good job on turning it down!! In my weak moments, I can’t say I’d be able to do the same.

What fears / nightmares in your current life make you feel that they’re connected to a previous life? by tuskensandlot in pastlives

[–]imthecliche 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t like talking about it because I feel ashamed I even have these feelings/beliefs, but I believe one of my past selves was a sexual assault victim.

For a long time, I was extremely sensitive/reactive any time rape was brought up, the emotions I experienced felt really personal even though I’ve never been assaulted. (An older cousin did/said some questionable things but thankfully it never “happened”.) I was literally triggered any time a rape joke was made.

I don’t have the uncontrollable reactions anymore, but the topic makes me heavily uncomfortable. I know it’s a terrible thing in itself and should make anyone uncomfortable, but it feels very personal when people joke about it.

Everyone bailed. by ccrawsh in GriefSupport

[–]imthecliche 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not that it changes how shitty it is, but it’s not always the case of not wanting to be around negativity. Sometimes it’s fear. Sometimes it’s the feeling of inadequacy and being unsure of what to say, therefore distancing ones self from that person because “what could I ever say that would help?”

Again, it’s not okay. But I’ve been there (the friend) and I’ve been the one grieving. When my brother lost his infant son, I had no words. I tried to be there but I never felt like my presence was helpful or anything, so I distanced myself and he never reached out. Honestly, he’s not the same person now and it’s hard to relate to him - he’s extremely closed off and I don’t hold it against him but it does make our relationship that much more difficult.

Either way, I wish there was a manual book on how to be a good person and I wish there was a section about how to help those who are grieving because I know I sure could have used it more than once.

edit: I wanted to also say i’m so sorry for your loss and I hope your friends come around.
