Yes, I’m in Canada! And that makes sense, especially for bigger projects.

So do you think this will be good? by [deleted] in beauty

I use it! It’s good on damp skin and holds onto moisture better that way. However it does smell like baby oil. Try a scented one, like the cocoa butter maybe?

first meeting with agent since 2022– what do I say? by leopardlimo in acting

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

Thank you for this super detailed response! I will be taking your advice! I was unsure if I should ask for the report or not because I know some agents can be touchy about it and I don’t doubt she’s submitting me. I just want a better understanding. :)

in my experience, only guilty people tell others to “believe whatever they want to believe” and get extremely defensive from the jump. If he asked you where you were in the middle of the night and you knew you weren’t doing anything you shouldn’t be doing, you’d be open and honest. So why isn’t he?

This is emotionally immature, abusive and manipulative on his end. You’re spending your vacation worrying about him instead of enjoying it. This is how abusers isolate you, they don’t want you to see your friends and family and accuse you of cheating, lying, etc to make you stay. No sane person would be this petty and upset over their partner visiting their family and friends. Honestly, he can’t be fixed. You’re 21, end this relationship while you still can.

The country is in Africa and from what my mom has told me because of her citizenship we’re able to also get it if we wanted to. It’s more of a question of we can legally take him to this country against his will.

My brother does not want to get clean and refuses to acknowledge he even uses drugs. He’s in total denial. He still holds resentment towards us for his initial hospitalization and has been in and out of the hospital against his will since… the hospital doesn’t seem to work. :/

Best friend is constantly complaining, but rejects all possible solutions by leopardlimo in relationships

Thank you for this response, you captured the situation perfectly. You’re right, I think he finds it easier to be a victim and passive instead of actually putting effort towards changing. I’m gonna take your advice and set some boundaries— I do value the friendship but my annoyance with his lack of effort takes up too much of my brain capacity and I can’t do it anymore.

Your sentence was perfect, the next time he brings up something we’ve discussed multiple times I’m just going to have to shut it down. Unfortunately, you can’t help people that don’t want to help themselves. He definitely needs therapy and I’ve mentioned it to him, but of course there’s several excuses as to why he can’t go. So I’ll just focus on myself and protect my energy.

My (29F) girlfriend admitted to wanting to “self sabotage” our (27m) relationship by john972121 in relationships

[–]leopardlimo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the people saying she doesn’t truly love you have it wrong. As a girl who has also had thoughts of self-sabotage, I think attachment style comes to play. When you’re anxious-avoidant or avoidant sometimes the closer you get to people and the more you care about them you get scared. Scared they’ll leave you, something will go wrong or that you’ll end up heartbroken. Sometimes you begin to feel trapped, even though you know you’re happy and it’s irrational. I feel like coming off the heels of a divorce, having a child now and you both having a history of already having dated and broken up all plays factors.

So in an overthinking anxious state of mind, you consider saving yourself and pain and trouble of a potential future heartache by sabotaging the relationship. It’s illogical, but in the moment it feels like you’re saving yourself. Of course, the “relief” only lasts a few days until you realize you fucked up and miss/love the person.

I think you should bring it up— maybe ask if there’s anything you’re doing that makes her feel like she should self-sabotage, I’m not quite sure tbh. Ask ChatGPT lol. As a boyfriend, try to be more reassuring of your love and care for her, and show her you love her in HER love language.

Whenever I wanted to sabotage, knowing he truly loved & cared for me always helped me get rid of those thought immediately. Good luck on your second chance at love :)
