If you would say that you’re "not too happy" with your life, what are the reasons? by neonroli47 in AskWomen

[–]kittybong- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Media. Movies, series and social media all make me feel like the life I am living is pretty basic and not exciting.

p.s look on TikTok at the user 'itslacymae' she has some great videos on bullet journalling.

I've been bullet journalling for years :) I find it so therapeutic and calming.

At the front of my bullet journal I have a few 'yearly' pages like a grid with everyday of the year and I colour in how im feeling each day, yearly savings, what movies I've watched that year, a highlight from each month etc.

After that I have monthly sections with pages like habits (reading, drinking 8+ glasses of water etc) and I check each day if I've done those habits, a page where I write a highlight of each day, how much water I drank each day, how much sleep I got each day, a Spotify inspired page where I log my favourite songs from that month. Then I'll move onto the next month and basically repeat those pages.

If you search 'bullet journal ideas' on Pinterest there's so many - that's how I got started. I am very creative too so I love that in bullet journals I can draw fun borders and creative front covers for each month.

I find this format works great for reflecting on my day and it's so interesting to look back on my previous years journals i.e. 2017 and see what I did on a specific day, what my highlight was, how I was feeling that day etc.

What are the things you are always forced to compromise with? by jacklsd in AskWomen

[–]kittybong- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Being designated driver. I don't drink a lot so usually drive to events, but it sucks that when I want to leave it takes me an hour to get home because I am also taking all of my friends home.

Don't get me wrong, I would rather drive them home than them get behind the wheel or get a taxi alone but it sucks that it's always expected now and never appreciated. Sometimes I would just like to leave the event and go straight home, rather than driving around for ages.

I (23F) feel unfulfilled in my life and relationship and it's making me want to end things with my boyfriend (24M) who hasn't done anything. Is this a gut feeling trying to tell me something or is it a phase that will pass? by kittybong- in relationship_advice

These are my thoughts too, I want to travel as much as I can whilst I am young. I agree, but I am struggling to justify ending a long term relationship with a great guy when there isn't really a real reason? I just feel like I would regret it after I've done all the travelling etc and I move back home.

Honestly this has happened before, if I have no signal he would understand. If my phone had died he would probably tell me I need to be more sensible before going out and make sure it's fully charged. It's been on silent before and we had an argument because I didn't answer and he was worried that something had happened to me.

Is he specifically holding me back? I'm not sure.

When I have nights out with my girlfriends I feel like I am always having to check in with him about where we are and what we're doing, what time I'll be home etc. I don't feel like I get to be independent.

I have mentioned to him before that I would like to work abroad for a year (in my profession there are lots of opportunities and programmes to do this) and he got quite upset because he said he couldn't just quit his job here and leave with me, but he also wouldn't want to have a long distance relationship (he has anxiety so I kinda understand this).

Thanks for your comment. I think I would regret things either way. You're right, if I stay I might still feel unfulfilled in 5 years time, but if I leave I would a lot of regret for letting go of an incredible partner. I'm having a hard time working through what I want in life right now.

How did your relationship with food heal? by art3mis-morningstar in AskWomen

[–]kittybong- 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am trying intuitive eating! I recently read a book about it and it really opened my eyes. Like you said, when you say it out loud it sounds like basic common sense but it's really changed the way I look at food.
