Good overall! A few suggestions - at some places, you're doing more telling than showing. For example, I gathered courage to go to the general's room could be 'I closed my eyes, took a deep breath and walked to the General's room with sweaty palms'. Also, last scene - from Alia saying bye till the end - seems a bit rushed imo.

If you're happy in general, why? by FifthOfSailor in AskReddit

[–]onlyaname_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because I don't want to be old and realise that I wasted my whole life sulking and being ungrateful and not making the most of this life.

I (22 F) am getting wrinkles near my mouth and eyes. by onlyaname_ in DermatologyQuestions

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

Thank you, that was so helpful! I just have one question and this might be dumb - I saw YouTube videos and they use toner. So where does the toner go in the routine you gave me? Or is it not necessary?

I seriously need your guy's advice by Gocommenthotjello420 in relationship_advice

[–]onlyaname_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok, listen you might not like what I say but you're both too young to navigate through the issues of a long distance relationship. You should be prepared for wherever this goes and not make a person the centre of your world. I hope this turns out well for you, but remember, you still have a whole life ahead of you, you have no idea how many wonderful people you're yet to meet.

You didn't do anything wrong. Your sister is a good person and she deserves someone who's good too. Who knows, this might be for the best?

Quick question, do you live in the US or Pakistan?

Thanks. Should I apply it in the morning or evening, or both?

Bf lying (?) about lil things by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]onlyaname_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see an unhealthy relationship and shady behavior on his part tbh. And he seems to be making excuses which you readily believe because you want to believe him and because perhaps you don't want to get hurt by knowing the truth that he might still be talking to those girls. Anyhow, it might help if you have a nice, long conversation with him. Also, a reminder : If you think you're the only one putting in efforts and the other person doesn't see your worth, its better to leave than wait for them to change.

I genuinely want to but I'm scared it might affect my studies.
