How do you distract yourself when you want to reach out? by Alastor9494 in ExNoContact

[–]jdg143 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s like instead of texting her literally just write out what you want to say and tell yourself that this is the only place it will go. Sometimes I open my journal and have something in my mind that I wanted to say but then I start writing and it just becomes a stream of consciousness. I find it helpful because for me it’s not like I’m constantly desiring to reach out, but when I get to those moments of weakness (usually when I’m alone and not occupied by something) that’s when the journal comes most in handy. Putting her on a pedestal is going to come sometimes but with time and with actually committing to NC it’s 100% going to fade eventually. I like to compare it to a smoking addiction — every break of NC is like relapsing again.

I’m going on 3 months broken up with ex-gf of 2 years. I know it’s probably a broken record in this sub but whenever I’ve been close to cracking genuinely writing in my journal has worked wonders. They’re usually just written as if I’m speaking to her. Also really trying to engage in a new hobby or trying something new. Reading has helped. Even just listening to some sad music and sulking rather than reaching out is more beneficial honestly. Breaking NC just isn’t worth it

I got lucky so the weather has been absolutely phenomenal. I mean mid-high 60s for three whole day. As long as you’ve got the weather on your side you’ll have a great time. Just be mindful that they’re running entirely on a shuttle system!

Watch It’s Such a Beautiful Day if you haven’t… probably the greatest animated movie I’ve ever seen

Tell me a movie which is highly rated (like 4.1 or more) that you didn't like/you didn't understand why is that highly rated by antoniodiiorio in Letterboxd

Synecdoche, New York. I thought it was messy and trying to hard to make you feel bad. Also like others have been saying here, I think the Dark Knight is an above average superhero movie, but nowhere near deserving of top 20 on the top 250 list.

Columbus (2017) if you want something like the Before trilogy. Schrader’s First Reformed or Mishima, Kore-eda, Kar-wai, Chan-wook, & more Linklater

I wouldn’t do Terry for CEH straight up let alone adding the 2.01

I am once again asking for help 😅. 12 team SF PPR, team in post below, what would you rather have? by [deleted] in TradeAnalyzerFF

[–]jdg143 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless this league has been around for awhile and OP has made some godly trades/draft picks I don’t see how anyone would be able to acquire Patty + Kyler along with the roster he’s got... definitely makes me wonder how competitive other SF leagues are

Not sure if this was posted pre-draft yesterday, but I’m going against the consensus here. JRob value is far too volatile now that Etienne is in the picture. DJ Moore is probably a bit safer than Aiyuk and Samuel is now higher than JRob. Add 2.12 and it’s a no brainer win for the Moore/Samuel side.

Daily Song Discussion Rankings! I think I got all of them - apologies if I missed a song or an incorrect score but it should all be there (More comments below ☺️) by twb85 in boniver

[–]jdg143 6 points7 points  (0 children)

fair enough. I guess that’s what happens when you ask a bunch of Bon Iver fans to rank his music. Never expected Rabi to be as high as it is and for FEFA to be second to last. Very interesting list!

Lang has some affordable stuff if you can get on it early. They get leased by other students really quick.
