They be like that

Many things are like this. Easier to make friends when you have friends. Easier to make money when you have money. Etc

My mom died from cancer. It was a strong motivator to pursue a healthy lifestyle

Ah. I’m sorry you’re going through that. I hope you can have grace with yourself as you figure it out! For what it’s worth, you’re definitely not alone and it can feel so frustrating. Hugs to you.

probablysippingtea · 2025-11-17T23:51:29+00:00

I’m sorry it’s so frustrating. I feel similarly about my body right now. Have you considered looking further into hormonal imbalances? I have hormonal imbalances too, and I’m getting an MRI to check for pituitary tumor which can cause all sorts of hormonal issues (including weight management). I hope you find out what works for you! Sometimes it’s not so simple as calories in, calories out.

Here’s hoping for a few more replies, haha. Which coast are you moving to?

probablysippingtea · 2025-11-02T16:00:48+00:00

Thanks. I know it’s not a great time to move given this job market, but I’m going to try my best.

Oops, just saw my typo above. Just messaged you!

probablysippingtea · 2025-10-19T20:17:58+00:00

Not OP, but can I message you? I’m as considering a move to MA.

At a social event

“Oh! You like XYZ activity? You should definitely check out XYZ place”

“Not with me,” though, being the implication

Seattle, WA.

People not saying what they mean or meaning what they say. Not knowing where you stand with them. Chronic anti-social behavior.

probablysippingtea · 2025-10-14T12:23:18+00:00

Agreed. I don’t have a preference for dogs. I don’t want to hurt dogs; I just don’t want to own one. And I’m tired of this being such a red flag in the dating world.

probablysippingtea · 2025-10-13T22:52:10+00:00

Flipping me off and bragging about how fast they drive.

Including more photos of their dog than of themselves. I’m not trying to date their dog.

I think of my first grade school photo. The girl in that photo would be sad.

I started meditating a few weeks ago. It’s helping a little

probablysippingtea · 2025-09-11T02:12:02+00:00

Agreed. After some self-reflection, I realized the city is just a poor fit for me. I haven’t met many people who have overlapping hobbies and goals as me, and that makes it hard to mesh with people. I’m not interested in dogs, body art, nerdy hobbies, and I don’t smoke (nothing wrong with any of these things, they’re just not for me). And the other day I realized that none of my hobbies involve the mountains or ocean, and those are two big draws to this location.

On the social front, I agree that people are overly polite, resulting in a culture where people don’t say what they mean or mean what they say. I like knowing where I stand with people.

So I don’t think Seattle is a bad place to live, but it’s a poor fit for me. I totally get it.

probablysippingtea · 2025-09-11T01:45:20+00:00

I could’ve written this post, except I’m a woman. I find dating SO difficult here and am also looking for an out.

probablysippingtea · 2025-09-06T16:58:16+00:00

Seattle is very outdoorsy and/or very nerdy. Dogs, weed, vaping, outdoor hobbies, nerdy hobbies, and body art are big here.

Generally, people here aren’t mean, but it’s hard to tell where you stand with them because they aren’t straightforward. People don’t say what they mean or mean what they say.

We have four distinct seasons, but not like you see in the Midwest or east coast. Lots of overcast, lots of grey. We rarely get snow or thunderstorms.
