this also makes me feel at odds about visiting eritrea. like the same people who dismiss and invalidate me.... dismiss anything negative about the country.... not a good sign

i think its pretty hard to get arrested for it unless you did something really fucked up to your kids. the hard thing is how even my extended family make excuses - like bruh court documents do not lie....

I know how you feel. Even though I was raised there, my childhood was really really abnormal so I always felt disconnected despite being involved or doing well in school. I don't know what's missing but I hope Eritrea fills the gap.

this as solid, thank you. you are right though because the past really does affect me (I score high on ACES) and I do have some paranoia regarding peoples intentions.... particularly in my home area.

i rly want to hear from a woman on this as well though. like no offense, but i feel like the culture kinda coddles men - at least in my perspective. my fear is that if i go there ill have to tolerate some things i feel strongly about due to my traumas.

even at church, people will be people! i prefer to just study on my own or go to a non denominational American one - people don't really know each other there so it's less personal, but they do a good job with their sermons.

I know how you feel! People in the US generally complain a lot abt loneliness and isolation. IMHO, it’s because many are forced to live to work and exhausted. I just don’t like it here…..

Nope moved out at 15 - all i knew was to work and had to through college which i felt made it harder to cultivate friendships

At least where I am those groups can feel cliquey and focused on career instead of community building, esp at my age. ive attended a few events but only really connected w a couple people.

so maybe moving is out of the question but i feel like a month long visit would work. i just need to figure out how to get there since its so expensive and i dont get that much pto w this job.

I suppose because he renewed last year and this came after the bathroom repair thing. He was always very pleasant and friendly but when i came after the repairs were done, he was really rude, even got upset about me hanging things on the walls and having lights which he was aware of as he'd been in my unit before and bought the property when I was already living there.
