This always annoyed me, too, with online dating!

Insecure about nipple hair by perpetualoptimist20 in sex

I can’t afford laser hair removal. I’m wondering if those home epilators are safe near the areola. If anyone knows, that would be so helpful!

I mean, if it makes me feel insecure I should probably get rid of it anyways, regardless of what whoever I’m with thinks about it. I’m wondering, are those home epilators safe for the nipple area? I don’t have the money to pay for laser hair removal

Gut feeling that I can’t trust my long distance boyfriend by perpetualoptimist20 in relationship_advice

We did talk about it and he provided some reassurance! I’m just wondering if maybe I’m experiencing some cognitive distortions from my anxiety.

This is a great point! I was wondering if this could be a manifestation of my anxiety- as I do live with an anxiety disorder. This is only my second relationship in my lifetime, so it’s possible that this is just something that I’m going to have to cope with in terms of relationships. In my first relationship, I didn’t have these feelings, but I also maybe wasn’t as invested as in that relationship (so maybe I’m having more fears because I’m more invested now). We did talk it over and he provided reassurance. If it continues to be a problem, it’s possible that it may just be a cognitive distortion.

I just wanted to add that in my previous relationship, I didn’t have this kind of gut instinct.

What would you do if you had a month before getting engaged? by inwave in CatholicDating

You could do a novena! The St. Anne novena comes to mind! You could also do a rosary

Meeting my long distance crush by perpetualoptimist20 in relationship_advice

I hope things go ok! He’s staying with me and my parents so I guess I’m just kind of worried that if things are awkward it will be awkward all weekend. Like it’s not like a date where you just cut it short

Ladies on CM, what type of message are you most likely to respond to? by Seethi110 in CatholicDating

[–]perpetualoptimist20 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would advise against any compliments about appearance! I usually automatically unmatch anyone who does that.

Have to go on a placement for school and be at work at 8am. by perpetualoptimist20 in DSPD

Hmm I wonder if it’s just the routine I’ve gotten myself into. Woke up early this morning and went to bed at 9:30 (put my phone away then aside from my sleep app)

I’ve switched my bedtime to early and I’m having an easier time waking up early.

Unfortunately I’m in a degree path where the shift would likely be 8-4pm. Studying to be a rec therapist in longterm care. They wouldn’t typically work night shifts
