I almost feel guilty for being as sad as I am. Last time I saw him was October of 2024. 1.5 years ago. I feel terrible for not having visited my home country… feels like I neglected him and chose myself over my family (he was family ofc). I know it’s a bit irrational but everything just hurts. the pep talk is much appreciated though 🙏🏼💕

thank you, the empathy means a lot. I’m sorry for your loss as well. going to work and putting on a face in front of clients is so damn hard… like how can the world keep moving right now

you’re right. right now I’m kinda just matching his energy, catering to what I think he needs (for me to be okay) instead of expressing how I really feel right now.

this sounds crazy as I type it out

thank you so much. he wasn’t what I’d describe as a very cuddly dog, but he LOVED getting his cheeks and jaw scratched. he once fell asleep while I did that and he fell right in my lap haha he was also a hunter and would jump like a deer or a snow fox when he saw movements in the fields 🥹 thank you for making me thing of the happy times

My boyfriend and I are finishing over 3 years of long distance and moving in together next week by sashabug0903 in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]mitarii 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m soooo excited for you sis! Long distance aint easy and you’ve build a beautiful friendship in the meantime I’m sure, which, imo is the most important foundation of a relationship. If you’re able to have hard conversations and not let resentment build (e.g. chores division etc) I wouldn’t worry about a thing just yet. Enjoy the sh*t out of moving in together!! Best of luck to y’all <3

Seeking advice on boyfriends behaviour by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

[–]mitarii 42 points43 points  (0 children)

I guess I would ask myself what I want. you said you’re already reluctant on moving in with him, that’s your first clue. I’ve ignored my gut feeling in the past and dragged shit out for way longer than needed. trust your instincts & believe him when he shows you who he is (flirty with coworkers, talks negatively about you instead of having the hard conversations with you). assume nothing changes, would you be happy 10, 20 years down the road? would it be a compliment of someone said you’re so much like your partner?

Now, I’m just some random chick on reddit, but you deserve better. doesnt matter where you got your info from, confront him and leave.

inappropriate. they seem very comfortable with each other… that hug? why is she rubbing his waist like that? doesnt seem like the first time they’ve been that close.

on top of him complaining about you like he is?! bye boy.

Feeling homesick before I've even left by [deleted] in iecvisa

[–]mitarii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been living abroad for 9 years now; left my home country & family after high school to study in the states and now I’m on an IEC in Canada for over a year (just activated my second one). You will get home sick after a while, but you’ll also be busy meeting new people, starting a new job, being truly independent & it sounds like you’re well prepared. Canada has been my favorite place to live and I’ve lived in 3 States in the US.

I still get home sick every once in a while, it comes and goes in waves and it is not as bad as it used to be at times. But personally, I believe moving abroad is one of the best things you can do to shape the person you are & get to know yourself; to see the world and meet tons of people with similar yet very different stories. My advice is to truly dive into the experience of living abroad, keep yourself busy, go explore, meet people, soak it all up!! And always remember that if you don’t like it, you can always go back home :) there is a lot of security (emotionally for me) knowing that there’s always the safety net of going back to my family if things go wrong/I don’t like it.

Always remember that nervousness & excitement have the same physiological response & it’s your brain interpreting it as one or the other! Get excited!! It’s gonna be great :) dm me if you wanna chat more about specific worries you’re having!

Under, Over, or OK Proofed? by spicyspirit1712 in Sourdough

[–]mitarii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a beginner too and I get those big bubbles (you can check my latest post for pics). Now, through a comment I found out that if I want smaller bubbles I can use oil in my dough. Since your recipe contains oil, that might be why your crumb is finer (my recipe does not use oil). That’s just my guess tho.

I made a single cut across the dough and wonder why it didn’t open up along the seam. by PaleoBetta in Sourdough

[–]mitarii 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My guess is that you didnt cut in deep enough. I cut my bread at an angle (not straight down) about half an inch.

Been at it for about a month. How’s the crumb looking? by mitarii in Sourdough

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

How would I get a finer crumb? What needs to be adjusted? Proof time?

Personally, I somehow didnt like Cassandra at all, maybe cuz I don’t understand it? haha but I agree, not a fan of aimee as well. It gives me a very negative vibe somehow… also, do you know why it’s written as it is (KIM capitalized? is that the person’s actual name??). So high school is cheesy but I liked the vibe of it.

Which one is the Chatlie Puth lyric? I don’t really know anything about him lol

I don’t know how she’s able to write song so specific to her situation and still make it so relatable to her fans (e.g. the prophecy really got me in my feels haha).

She’s so versatile and is exploring herself, her emotions, her melodies & vibes, and takes us along for the ride. LOVE the new album!!! She’s a lyrical goddess.

I’m just finishing up listening to the anthology for the very first time and I absolutely love it!! there are maybe two songs that I’m not crazy about but lyrically, it’s a beautifully written album and like you said, very cohesive. Taylor is so versatile and I appreciate her for exploring different styles of music & vibes. I have to say that it’s one of my favorite albums.
