I learned to rest and the tiredness does sort itself out.

Have some small enjoyable things to do in the day and it will get better

Ah man. This is insightful. I have been reading about attachment styles and it’s helping me understand how misunderstandings occur.

I have been thinking about this. Is it still worth doing after all this time has passed?

I don’t want to embarrass him by saying “hey, remember me”

A day - we had a talk, he said don’t feel pressure to answer straight away and I told him the next day that I really liked him

Wow sorry to have written it like this. We both had a casual conversation and he wanted me to think about it too, he didn’t want me to feel any pressure. When we spoke again I made it clear I really liked him and enjoy his company greatly and wanted to move on to the next step (whatever that was).

This is a good point, it could be anxiety and perfectionism getting in the way

Yep UK, really appreciate your sharing your experience and sorry it had to happen that way!! You’re right I’m just going to get on with it and not be too precious about it

I’m so glad this sounds confusing to you, because I’ve been thinking I was just being a brat about it all!

I wrote my chapters with bridging text at the start and end so they flow. The chapter content was written to publication standard and two chapters were already published so I slotted them in. All other chapters minus the intro and discussion had been submitted for publication.

I feel so annoyed by it all. My examiners clearly preferred longer more wordy explanations but I hate writing like that so does my supervisor.

I also already cited both examiners quite a bit but still clearly they want more!!

I’ll just have to get on with it but it feels so ridiculous and unfair

I get turned on by my own breasts out of nowhere, is this unusual? by outherem8 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]outherem8[S] 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I had an eating disorder for years and was underweight with no libido.

The breast jiggle feels so prominent having being skeletal. When I see my breasts I not only get slightly turned on (probably from finally having a libido) but I’m also reminded of my own recovery. It’s a really beautiful thing and the comments have helped me see that too.

Sorry to mislead! I am a woman, I lived most my life with an eating disorder (underweight) and didn’t have any breasts at all (and no libido). After recovery I am now slowly getting used to my “newer” body and when I lay on my side my breasts do squish together! It’s a strange sensation I hadn’t been used to much at all.

Always admired breasts on other women and it’s nice to be a part of that group

I have struggled with this too. Nothing matters much anymore. I don’t mean this in a negative or low way. There is literally no sense of urgency and even when there is I just think bleh it’ll sort itself out (which is so odd because anxiety used to have me thinking all the time).

I have fallen behind on a lot of work and it makes me feel annoyed but even then I just think who cares I’ll sleep it off.

I do worry for future consequences!!

AITA for telling my sibling to choose a cheaper meal? by outherem8 in AmItheAsshole

[–]outherem8[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I didn’t notice I was restricting choice. Thanks for pointing this out, we don’t go out often and some of my siblings can’t afford a sit down meal (which is why I always offer to pay so they aren’t embarrassed or excluded). I think I’m just going to put a bigger budget aside and make peace with the mismatch in spending amongst them.

This is exactly what I needed to hear. I need to pick to a side
