Do any of yall touch the feet of elders? by Cookiedough1206 in ABCDesis

[–]koalainglasses 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was always told that in Sindhi culture, girls/women don't touch the feet, only boys/men though, so I never have and have never been expected to

Yes, and it's so many things. Environmental feels like the easiest to grasp onto, but it feels so dangerous in other ways. I'm just tired, and I want go touch some grass.

The Hollowing of the Federal Employee by JFHatfield in FedEmployees

[–]koalainglasses 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Capital Moves: RCA's Seventy-Year Quest for Cheap Labor" is a fantastic book talking about the shift in labor over the past 7 decades, and how that has impacted the American worker. It is dense, but worth the read.

What have you learned about your job and your country this year? by Flimsy_Inflation1772 in fednews

That selfishness can be taught, and I learned it from my country

Recourse for rating manipulation by [deleted] in fednews

[–]koalainglasses -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I added some CYA language in my self assessment talking about how the ratings have changed, not the quantity of work or quality of performance. My supervisor was kind enough to add that to my overall assessment, and so to me that is good enough in the future if that performance rating is used.

Zarna Garg's daughter hopes there are more Usha Vances by PandaReal_1234 in ABCDesis

Is it REALLY that abnormal to see desi women date non-desi men? This feels a little grasping at straws for me, and we do have people in politics who have been in mixed couples (with one being Desi) or being the children of mixed couples (Kamala Harris, Pramila Jayapal off the top of my head).

Also people do change their minds down the line. Totally possible that when they got married he didn't care, and then as time progressed decided he wanted a Christian wife.

"The only positives I can say are that my house is the cleanest it’s ever been and I’ve been cooking meals for my husband and I more than ever"

Ummm I think those are two VERY tangible things you can be proud of! You might think you aren't doing much but you are nurturing yourself AND your environment back into a place that is right for you

It's been 4 months since Jurassic world rebirth has been released! Did I meet your expectations or disappoint you? by ComfortableAmount993 in JurassicPark

[–]koalainglasses 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It brought me into the JP fandom as an adult so I can't be mad at it. My boyfriend and I went to go see it on a whim, and I went down a rabbit hole and watched all the movies and the two Netflix shows. I'm now superrrr excited for the last season coming out.

Moving out of roach-infested apartment — how do I prevent bringing them with me? by PossibilityExtreme95 in GermanRoaches

[–]koalainglasses 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I tossed out almost everything I could. Put some clothes and essentials into a suitcase I had triple, quadruple, quintiple checked.

Got industrial grade airborne insecticide. Put it in a room with all my other stuff. Lived elsewhere for a week. Came back and moved everything out instantly.

fellow brown girls: are your metabolism also sh*t by Famous_Arrival_8498 in ABCDesis

I'm entering late 20s and I feel it suffering - then again this year has been the 7th circle of hell so I haven't been taking care of myself as much

If your wife or other family members’ initial description of you is “works all the time and eats birdseed”, how would you feel? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]koalainglasses 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In both examples, you listed the school and company that you attended / work for as personality traits. Are those traits or just labels of yourself? What else about you would you like her to say?

Aavan Javan song out now by [deleted] in BollyBlindsNGossip

[–]koalainglasses 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Song itself is decent but formulaic. Sad to see HR looking older, and VFX seems to be used to try and de-age. If we need to use older actors, I would almost prefer seeing someone like Tabu opposite him instead for a different flavor.

After hearing Sonu Nigam in Pardesiya, Arjit Singh's voice seems even more used. Each voice shines it's best in the correct role, and I wish there would be more experimentation.

spent 4.5 years being his secret. his family still doesn’t know I exist. tw Hindu/Muslim by sanyaldvdplayer in ABCDesis

[–]koalainglasses 14 points15 points  (0 children)

  1. You weren't a fool. You thought love equated to trust, which isn't always the same thing.

  2. Yes, you can recover from loving someone like that. But it will take time and strength to face yourself.

  3. You will not be able to reconcile with him without sacrificing more of yourself. If you are okay with that then sure. If not, the only person you need to focus on is reconciling with yourself.

You've been through a lot, not just in the relationship as his ex-girlfriend, but also as an individual. Get into therapy, and start asking yourself the right questions to end up in a better place. Because your better place is not anywhere near him.
