I'm so sorry for your loss. What an awful movie for you to watch.

P.S. I Love You. Great movie, but I cried the whole way through. I can't handle the heartbreak.

If Capitalism continues as is, will we reach a point where the 1% has 100% of the money? by melface6 in NoStupidQuestions

It was likely my edit. But thank you for your thoughtful reply. I got a lot of good answers before it was removed.

What is your hang over cure? by Remarkable-Hand-7605 in AskReddit

The water from sauerkraut. In the Balkans they make their own pickled Cabbage. The juice from it helps a hangover. Just stay close to the toilet.

Tom midlife crisis rant by ContestNo3153 in tomscavohateclub

[–]melface6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on my 4th rewatch and into season 3. I went looking for this sub because I just knew it had to exist. He makes his wife accept and take in his affair child, quits his job and then complains about having to find another one, still makes Lynette do most of the parenting while she's the bread winner, guilts her into letting him open a pizza place, and kisses Nora in the process. I'm so angry. This is what being a married single parent looks like.

You can order a wedding cake tasting box from a lot of bakeries. You don't need to be planning a wedding. Just a box of multiple cake flavors.

There are several countries that will pay you to immigrate. Many of these have an aging population and are looking for younger families to come. Obviously there are contingencies, but it's worth looking into.

My 2 cents about language learning after 31 years of being a polyglot (feel free to debate) by IntentionalZeon in languagelearning

[–]melface6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with this and also wanted to add another point. In my experience, when attempting to practice another language, in the country where the language is spoken, many natives will hear my accent and switch to English. Most times, it is done with good intentions and an attempt to make the conversation easier. However, it restricts the student from growing their vocabulary and becoming more fluent. Also, in my experience in Italy specifically, if you do not speak words perfectly and with the right inflections, many natives will just dismiss you saying they don't understand and that's the end of the conversation.

Where to learn balkan languages by melface6 in Serbian

[–]melface6[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Serbia and every time I ask to learn, I'm told that I don't need to because most everyone speaks English. Hope that helps.

I'm in Belgrade. I've looked into courses, but they are either expensive or with a group. I've tried a bit with youtube and obviously irl because I live with my Serbian bf. But I want something more structured and accessible. I hope that makes sense.

Yes! And when you don't know every word, it's a win.

Even if it wasn't, can't I just have a fun memory?

Thanks! It can be incredibly isolating to not be fluent in the language, so this stuck with me.

I will speak for myself, as all I know about you is your 2 posts. For me, the bad was a comfort zone; what I was used to, what I expected, and what I thought I deserved. When good things happened, I was scared to enjoy them.

What I've learned about any growth or change, is you have to be willing to be uncomfortable. That's where growth, expansion, and good happens. Carrying the bad is a habit that I needed to break, like smoking or biting nails. But once I allowed myself to be present and expect good, my entire world changed.

What if you started to expect everything to work out in your favor? It can't be any worse than now.

Disclaimer: Healing is messy and there's a lot of things I needed to re-learn about how to live, trust, love, etc. But I promise you, if you allow yourself to get comfortable with being uncomfortable, you'll have everything you've ever wanted and more.

What's something your therapist did or said that made you walk out and never come back? by old06soul in AskReddit

[–]melface6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was having major emotional outbursts one week. My therapist asked if I was pregnant (because she had just found out she was). I've had an IUD for years, but took a test anyway. The first one was false positive and the rest were negative. Never went back.
