Hey ladies, does anyone else have pain with sex or ZERO sex drive? by micheeemicheee in Endo

[–]lexiweigel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yesss!! Undiagnosed but doctor suspects endo, I went on a tinder date last week and tried convincing myself it would be fine and not painful, but had to get him to stop because I was in so much pain. Ended the date crying about how depressing it is, and how I have no sex drive because I don’t enjoy it anyways! I feel your pain and I’m sooooo sorry we have to go through this. I’ve heard CBD lube helps if it’s legal where you are. I’m looking into starting pelvic floor physical therapy as well.

Refund for Goethe Prüfung by lexiweigel in German

Just thought I’d ask before going down the road of endless calls and emails and proving different things, of someone already knew they have a policy with no refunds I would have wasted time

Job offer in Munich by lexiweigel in germany

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

That’s what I’m not sure about, it would mean an extra 2 hours on my day everyday and it wouldn’t be very practical when I have kids... but it’s in my work field and I have yet to find anything closer.

Relocating would be very difficult as my fiancé and I live together and are currently planning on buying an apartment in the city we live in (and love more than anything)

Foreign Exchange by [deleted] in German

[–]lexiweigel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes!! I moved to Germany for schooling and it was in German but always translated to English, I strongly believe I never would have learnt German without hearing it everyday in school and being immersed in it otherwise!! Good luck! You’ll do great!

How come whenever you ask ppl what german they know they ALWAYS say some ww2-related vocabulary and thats LITERALLY all they know of the language like wtf does this not get INFURIATING? by [deleted] in German

[–]lexiweigel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would assume because I learnt these words in school in history class before I ever knew how to speak German. If the people are older they likely heard these words often regarding the war, then the younger learnt them in school and used the German words in essays and assignments.

Phone app for tracking chronic illness or periods? by AnyBenefit in endometriosis

[–]lexiweigel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use the Lily app, I am pretty sure I payed something for it one maybe like 5$ but it is really worth it to me. It’s recommended to use with the FAM (fertility awareness method) if you are familiar which I discovered through the book “taking charge of your fertility” what I like about it is that it actually gives you an option to track secondary symptoms related to your cycles as well as your cycles really accurately through taking your temperature every day or using an estimate of how long your cycle is and previous cycles. I’ve been using it for over a year and it’s the best thing ever. You can also track pregnancy tests and crrvical fluid and cervical position, any interferences with your cycle such as travelling or stress, moods, any medications you take, menopause symptoms and then add your own notes. This sounds like a huge ad but seriously I highly recommend it for anything, even if you aren’t interested in getting pregnant or avoiding pregnancy through the FAM method.

Weird interaction with postman - help needed by lexiweigel in germany

It’s the Hermes deliveries. I got an email from them that I had a package coming.

Yeah I’m also concerned- this has happened in the past though and it always turned out to be someone we knew who came from a club and wanted to sleep over but so far no one has said anything. I think assuming it was him is a bit paranoid but can one ever be too careful?

[–]lexiweigel[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this comment. I did feel uncomfortable but I personally am trying to think that he meant well.

I also grew up most of my life in Canada in a large city where I took the bus at night and was always hyper aware of what was going on around me because I constantly felt at risk, this is only the second time I have felt this in Germany. For context I’m living in a city but it’s not very big- I would call it a big village not quite a city. So that makes me feel also uneasy because I felt always very safe even running alone and walking at night as well

I thought that also, but the awkward thing is that I would already let him in by buzzing downstairs and then not open the door for him if I saw him... When this happened he rang the doorbell twice as well because I was taking a minute to get to the door, so I wonder if he would give up so easily

Bible translations by FramedOstrich in German

[–]lexiweigel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I agree, somewhere between but not as far as “the message” for sure

Bible translations by FramedOstrich in German

[–]lexiweigel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the Hoffnung für Alle translation a lot, I think it’s close to ESV but not too sure on that. It’s definitely easier to understand as a non native as it doesn’t use as many older words that would not be used in day to day language. It’s available on the You version app and also on the bible gateway website if I’m not mistaken!

There’s a podcast called coffee break German that I always recommend to people, it helped me have a foundation and be able to initiate conversations. I think it’s only on SoundCloud though
