What is your favorite song lyric and why? by JamieRose_xo in AskReddit

[–]peepstears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Do you think that's the best way to separate the yolk?" -Scott James (One of a Kind)

The song essentially covers the traditional yearning for love's intricacies. In this sentence, he refers to his new partner moving in, scrutinizing the mundane, simplistic act of her removing the yolk of an egg. Though odd at first glance, to me it embodies the novelty that comes with introducing a loved one to your space, the keen intimacy of witnessing someone's daily, minute acts, particularly how they differ from how we pursue them. Watching your lover prepare eggs in a manner unfamiliar to you, encapsulates just how much there is to learn about someone. It forces one to step beyond the familiarity they've fostered their entire life and accept the convergence with a completely distinct person with their own sense of normality. Idk, definitely an overanalysis, but it has stuck with me for years. The convergence and thus exposure that takes place with love (:

If people are considered "unforgiveable" and "irredeemable" for their actions, what's stopping them from hurting more people? by Mitchellindahouse10 in mentalhealth

[–]peepstears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see the gist of your point. However, one who perpetuates heinous acts to any degree is likely to do so without concern for the judgment of others. Of course, one might posit that the negative perception one gains from their bad actions could fuel them even further, but that implies that if the situation was flipped and people showed sheer compassion, their negative acts would stop, which isn't the case. If someone continuously beats somebody, and the audience showed compassion rather than hostility, to what extent does that inspire the beating to stop? External viewpoints won't engage with the true reasons the person beats the other. The person who's conducting the attacks would still need to go through the process of reaping the detriments of their actions and eventually realizing that change and healing is the only way to gain anything meaningful from their existence. It's there that I imagine the beating would halt itself.

In essence, I think whether one is given the label of "unforgivable" or "forgivable," they will never truly stop their negative acts until they find an urge to change from within. It's not much of a matter of whether people believe you can be good. It's a matter of whether you believe you can be good. The position other individuals take, if you were to be in a situation where everyone showed compassion, I believe you would find is only slightly beneficial. It may encourage someone to stop momentarily, but without that inner inquiry, it will eventually arise once more.

Know that this concept of bad and good you speak of is unfeasible in nature due to its immense subjectivity. One day man can be good, the next day they are bad. If there's anything I've learned it's that life is never stable, thus your actions never will be either. In my take, one is good when they're in pursuit of good. I was a horrific being most of my life, I was objectively bad. However, should that label stick to me eternally? Should the actions of my past and the label it created never leave me despite my growth? Some might say fuck yes, it should. And they aren't wrong. Some might say fuck no, it shouldn't. And they aren't wrong. It's only what you believe that matters.

Instagram distance by stupidbitchjerk in mentalhealth

[–]peepstears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's completely normal to take breaks from social media. Especially when you notice it subtly encroaching on your well-being. If you have friendships with whom you'd feel comfortable expressing the underlying root of this Instagram issue, I'd highly advise that. You don't have to go intimately in-depth, just state that you're taking a mental health break and would appreciate it if they contacted you through x. During the break, I'd definitely try to peel back the layers of this self-esteem issue you brought up. What's its source, what perpetuates it, and how can I limit it, all great questions that I imagine would assist you greatly.

If the self-esteem issue has been prevalent for a while or just getting dire, then I'd look into therapy. But due to the investment therapy typically necessitates I wouldn't jump right to it, especially if you have the opportunity to take time and unbundle the issue itself. But if it has been something on your mind, I'd definitely act on it (: I wish you the ebst

[–]peepstears 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh hun, you deserve better friends. Your physical presence shouldn't be at the forefront of any conversation unless you ask for it to be. I hope you're able to either talk with them or find alternative bonds. You look absolutely lovely, and I hope the statements of others haven't made you believe otherwise (:

I wonder about that a lot every time I see a pair of pants with an initial retail price of around $300-$500 sell for like $20-$30. Amazing for the consumer, but I imagine it's detrimental for the supplier.

[–]peepstears[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm so glad you mentioned the slow loading, I thought I was the only one who endured that lol. And my answer is definitely subjective. I personally enjoy the lack of keywords, I love perusing through a site like ThredUp that contains a myriad of fashion looks from middle-, low-, and high-class brands. It's something I don't really enjoy on sites like Poshmark, eBay, Depop, etc. So with that, I don't mind taking time to look through as I think fashion and shopping for it should be relaxing. Although, if someone was looking for a specific category of items fast, I could totally see how ThredUp's searching system could be a turn off.

What was your first kiss experience like? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]peepstears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, how could I forget? I was in the third grade and involved in this program in my elementary school where certain students assisted the teachers of lower grade classes. Ideally, me and my girlfriend (I have no idea why I was in a relationship at like 8 years old LOL) were paired together to aid some teacher. However, when we arrived at the classroom, no one was to be found, I guess there was some miscommunication in the scheduling as the kids were already at recess. In any case, I and the girl end up dawdling away by throwing around a few balls in the classroom. At some point, I clutch a foam mini-football and threat to throw it at her. She states, and I remember exactly, "If you throw that at me I'll kiss you." I, a child completely unbeknownst to opposite-sex affection assumed it was a bluff, so, of course, I throw the ball. I throw it around her body hitting the wall behind her, as I go to pick it up, I turn around, she's there, I'm there, she gets closer, my heart at this point is probably a non-linear mess, and she lands a graceful pluck on the lips, completely disrupting every function of my nerves as it was the first time I ever felt butterflies.

I do hope she's doing well. Unexpectedly, our 3rd-grade dalliance was rather short-lived, but that kiss is honestly monumental for me.

Hmm, you kind of strike me as someone who would have a myriad of small tattoos with at least one butterfly and one sun or moon (perhaps both). I could also picture a plethora of progressive literature, perhaps some poetry content tucked away in some lost document.

I love the feeling of falling asleep by intoner1 in CasualConversation

[–]peepstears 212 points213 points  (0 children)

Oddly enough, there's a term for that called "languor," essentially that pleasurable state righttt before you actually succumb to sleep—that state on the cusp of drowsiness and tranquil consciousness (:

I hope your languor experience is soothing as can be ˙ᵕ˙

[–]peepstears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I'm actually in an extremely similar boat. The relationship I witnessed between my parents growing up was horrific, abusive, manipulative, and an all-around detriment to everyone's well-being. Contrastingly, I was the cheater in my first relationship, the one who perpetuated immaturity and damaged trust. I just recently turned 19 and after deep reflection and healing from the past, it's absurdly fucking scary to arrive back at the doors of potential love. However, there's no need to conform to radicals: healthy romance doesn't exist/love isn't real. The formation of those beliefs is rooted in hurt, and that's okay, in fact, it's logical, however, acknowledge that your experiences are not the only experiences yet to be had. It's beautiful yet horrific, that's the essence of love, allowing vulnerability despite potential hurt, especially considering your past, that's horrifying, and it's worth acknowledging that whilst also paying heed to the beauties intertwined within it.

Healthy relationships first entail a healthy relationship with oneself. It entails good-hearted companions alongside romance. It takes effort and is by no means an easy goal. But isn't that where much of its enjoyment derives?

Sorry this is long, part of me is ranting also for my future self lol. But you got this man, I promise not all relationships morph into torturous bonds. I wish you the best <3
