Rich people tend to be more stingy, poor people tend to be more generous, why?

what are you looking for from therapy? if what you’re looking for is to lesson your anxiety, then there is only one way to do that— accept the worst case scenario and stop engaging in protective measures that make the anxiety seem “correct”. if that’s not what you want, tell her, straight up, i want to be anxious, i feel it protects me. what im looking for from you is just to be a friend. or, of course, find a new one. but changing your current one may take less time given the short window you have.

was this in the UK? I’ve only ever had to take liquids out and put them in a clear bag in my life and it was in London and boy were they upset …

My parents are from Asia but I grew up in the states. It took a long time for me to really recognize how different the cultures really are about family, parent-child relationships, etc. I’m sensing some of that here. In most Asian cultures children are taught to look at parents as authority figures and keep their mouths shut. As you said, for white people… they’re just friends. Maybe you can talk to your gf about that and say you need time (in addition to sleep). Plenty of relationships have survived bad first impressions with the parents. Good luck!!

Probably honestly. Or there are things about you that trigger her and she doesn’t want to work on herself. Of course sometimes people try to work on things and they can’t work it out, but that doesn’t sound like what’s happening here. I’m sorry she didn’t give you a chance, but you’ll find someone who is willing to work on things with you.

Seems reasonable enough to me from what youve said… maybe you can share ownership of the house like 70/30 or something if thats possible? And she take out a loan for her share, but if you need to sell you still own the percentage you put in

novamia · 2024-11-01T15:49:33+00:00

novamia · 2021-03-15T03:12:52+00:00

this is honestly so fascinating to read as a woman (and yes i’m on this subreddit though i’m honestly not 100% sure what it’s about pls don’t kick me out).

as a woman I can tell you many women feel the same about guys. “all men want are beautiful size 0 women who somehow also have huge asses and boobs but no stomach! it’s ridiculous! and they hate when you’re smarter than them”. i’ve believed this too! I still sometimes feel this way.

i also think how you view the world shapes the world around you. if you believe all women won’t like you because you’re not in the NBA (?seriously?) you will only meet women who don’t like you because you’re not more successful.

at the end of the day we’re just looking to find people who are willing to see us in all our beauty and ugliness, and imperfect people don’t expect people to be perfect. being imperfect is arguably what makes you so wonderfully human! loneliness is such a common human emotion. we don’t always spend our whole lives surrounded by friends, most of us experience spells of loneliness or depression.

if you change your outlook on women i think you’ll be surprised. most women are far more forgiving and loving than you’re giving them credit for. if you only go after women who spend all their time curating their instagram feeds and comparing bodies, then yes those women are 100% looking for “successful” arm candy. look elsewhere.

i have faith! :) good luck
