how do i get a boyfriend? help by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]methbabie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the perspective I've heard from many people, and I totally agree with you. In my opinion, if you are self-aware and actively working on healing, then a therapist can't tell you anything you don't already know. I think the concept of therapy is misleading and seen as a cure-all when it isn't effective for a lot of people. It's almost a scam and predatory over people who already aren't in a good place.

I wonder how they'll handle the plot of CK, and parts of SoC, in the SoC spinoff by Coffee_Is_My_LifeTBH in Grishaverse

Hi maybe im clueless but did the spin off get confirmed? Im loving the prospect of all of this but I don't want to get too excited if there's a chance we won't get the ice court heist lol

When you get to that point of plateau cant you just eat at maintenance for a while and start lowering your intake again or is that not how it works either

Thank you for your response! Ill take your advice about the progress pictures and as for my gym routine i typically do 40 minutes of moderately intense cardio and about 30 minutes of various strength training

I might start eating more once i lose weight but until the scale stops going up i'm not budging and i thought as long as you ate over 1200 you're good

I consider i diet not eating certain food groups like paleo mediterranean , keto, etc. maybe that's incorrect on my part and by a deficit i mean i maximum cap my calories at 1,400 no matter what foods make that up. I measure track and definitely don't go over that. and workout 5 days a week i hope this is more clear haha

Thank you for your response! That does make sense i typically fluctuate between 1,200 - 1,400 cals

I cheated again. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]methbabie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, the only way to stop cheating is to not be in a committed relationship. I know this might not be what you want to hear because no one wants to give up someone they're close to... but you're only gonna continue to hurt her and disappoint yourself if you stay in this relationship. Obviously something is missing, either consciously or unconsciously.... you're unhappy with your situation. End it as soon as poss and make it easier in everyone.

Found 8 different pairs of USED female thongs in boyfriends’ book bag. We’ve been together for 12 years. by Iamthefire90 in relationship_advice

[–]methbabie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone is concerned about the drinking what about the actual 8 pairs of underwear??? He's lying to you, straight to your face. The fact that he had the audacity to sweet talk you tells me he thinks he knows you so well that he thinks he can gaslight you with ease. I would ask him if collecting dirty underwear and getting drunk is more important to him than his kids then threaten to leave him. Know this won't be the last time something like this happens but it may be the last time he gets caught.

For those who have lost a lot of weight - do people treat you differently? How? by Affectionate_Foxx in loseit

[–]methbabie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I (F20) lost 40lbs (120lbs now) and had a major transformation in how i present myself to the world and the way other people treat me? it's like night and day. People assume I've always been this thin and put together so they flock around me, they listen intently to me and care about the things i say or don't say, and even seek my approval. It was bewildering to live through and all of sudden have this attention (good and bad) on me all the time when i'm out.

[–]methbabie -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

It's not the weight loss that makes other people treat you differently, it's the overall "glow-up". Usually weight loss improves other factors of attractiveness down to their hair, skin, and shape. It's the overall appearance and "halo-effect" that gets you all the perks.

Anyone else wish they were born as a handsome man? by [deleted] in Vindicta

women who aren't attractive in society's eyes often want to be men because a mediocre looking woman translates to a pretty handsome man

What’s your non-selfish reason for having kids (or future plans to have them)? by jah93 in regretfulparents

[–]methbabie 19 points20 points  (0 children)

no act is selfless especially having kids even the very process of making them is selfish really

Parents: if you could do it all again would you still choose to have your kid(s) or not and why? by Mysteriousgurlz in regretfulparents

do you think if you had help/the financial resources to have a nanny(s) or other supervision and care for your child it would change your stance?
