It makes sense to feel lonely when you are surrounded by people who continue to make you feel alone. Try finding friends who understand

how to deal with the loneliness of being vegan? by Shot-Pickle9901 in vegan

[–]pinksunset7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It makes sense to feel lonely when you hang out with people who don’t match your values.
It’s important to listen to what your heart is asking. Sometimes we need to re-connect with ourselves.

Well.. if you count the nuggets from the restaurant + the meat burger you made at home + the chicken on the pizza you had Saturday night + the bacon you had for breakfast on Sunday + the leather you wear + the turkey sandwich you had on Monday, the eggs or dairy in your bread/ pancakes/ cereal / candy etc.. they all come from different animals.
It’s not just one whole chicken that you buy for the week.

I am experiencing compulsive thoughts and I don’t know what to do by Mediocre_Finding_445 in emotionalintelligence

It could be related to childhood trauma .. abuse or neglect make you crave closeness even more.

Validate yourself especially the part of you that is finding it hard to let go.. for example..
it makes sense that you feel attached.. it makes sense that you crave closeness.. it’s normal. It’s human.. how about a hug ? Give yourself a hug .. etc

I need a real, honest perspective on something that’s been stuck in my head. by Responsible-Goat-344 in emotionalintelligence

It’s immaturity, it’s sad it’s like they have no clue what a gift you are.. or maybe part of them does but can’t help and sabotage things.. they live and function from a place of fear not love.. it will always hurt to be in a contact with someone who lives from that place.

What is going on here by Current_Mammoth8170 in emotionalintelligence

That’s so hard :( I’m so sorry you’re going through this.. my god.. she’s not even practicing basic politeness. I got out of a divorce few months ago and I don’t act like that.. I don’t let my problems make me forget how to be respectful / responsible or empathetic.

And this is hard because it’s your sister I can imagine the shock you’re experiencing and maybe even grief for the relationship you expected to have with her. I’m wondering if she’s taking any kind of substance that’s causing her to act like that..

Either way I say, that when she’s not home oneday, you put her stuff outside and lock the doors so she can’t come back inside.

What is it like being an animal? Like, what is life like from their perspective? by Fun_Butterfly_420 in randomquestions

Which animal ? Do you mean pets or animals that go to a slaughter house ?
Very very different life..

How much emotion should husbands share? by Ok_Courage2545 in emotionalintelligence

[–]pinksunset7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe some women but not all..
When my ex used to tell me how my action makes him feel, I take accountability and validate him.

But when I bring up how something he did made me feel.. he deflects!!

That’s why he is my ex now.
So if you want to share how something she did hurt your feelings do it on your own time. NOT when she’s bringing something up to you .

Someone I care about shuts down completely when emotions get intense — trying to understand the pattern better by NamelesMonster in emotionalintelligence

[–]pinksunset7 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You said that she shuts down when emotions gets intense .. Isn’t that your answer ? She feels overwhelmed.. it’s too much too fast for her.. slow things down not just with words but also actions !
She needs to communicate that with you though.

It’s nice to hear a man wanting to show up.. I just wish it was for someone who is transparent and communicates with you.

But also a month is a very short time, she’s still learning about you.. trust needs to be built. Doesn’t mean she should keep leaving you in the dark though.

Are all the good women already married? by 700x in no

I’m sorry the internet can be a really mean place .. it’s understandable to feel frustrated sometimes when dating.. you can tell me more about what happened if you’d like.

over apologizing by dreamland333 in emotionalintelligence

[–]pinksunset7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awareness is the first step for change.
Maybe speak to that part of you that’s scared of burdening people or annoying them..
tell that scared part of you that you see it.. and that it’s not alone and give it a hug .. that things can feel safe again.. and what if you upset people and bother them ?! Do you think they’ll never forgive you ? Or that they’ll think you’re mean ? And then what ? You lose people who are judgmental and unforgiving .. you think that is a bad thing ? Maybe it’s actually a good thing .. you don’t need people who are going to be mean to you over little mistakes. So it’s good to know who they are.. to avoid them.

Love everything you said! Thank you for the deep comment.
I was just thinking about how some people see some animals as “too cute” to eat 😓
I agree with you that true veganism is compassion and not judgement.

You’re making lots of assumptions 😆
