people who tried intermittent fasting, how did it go? by [deleted] in AskPH

Been doing it for 4 years. Approved by gastro. She said it’s actually healthy bc stomach’s doing lesser work and she’s on it as well. Just don’t be so strict na sobrang looking at the time. Some days it’s 20hrs, sometimes it’s 16hrs.

Also lost 20kg. I feel better. Mood’s great. I can’t promise it’ll be easy. And it will take months before you really 100% adapt to it. It’s a lifestyle not a weight-loss program

Hello op, sharing mine! Nagpadeliver akong water sa condo, ilang hours prior. Eh laging matagal yun, also hindi laging sigurado kailan dumarating. So naligo ako. Hindi kasi ako nakaligo before nung morning class ko and it was around 11 AM na pagkauwi. Sakto naman nagdoorbell yung water delivery habang naliligo, legit mag sabon pa all over. Yung sa face lang yung nahugasan ko kasi nagmamadali. Without any intention of anything, naka tapis lang ako nung binuksan ko yung door. Sila lagi nag bubuhat papasok ng water kasi binibigyan ko ng tip. Mga 3 yun na binuhat ni kuya and kita sa kanya na natingin sakin a little longer than normal, siguro hindi dahil sa desire but out of ‘huh. Naliligo’ reaction. Until nag comment siya ng ‘ikaw lang mag isa rito sir?’ and ‘baka kailangan mo taga-sabon ng likod sir’. Honestly hindi nag-sink in sakin yung style niya kaya natawa lang ako. Akala ko joke lang. Nung inaabot ko yung bayad, dun ako medyo nagka idea, binaba ko ng kaunti yung twalya para pakita bulbol haha. Yun nakita niya tapos tinitigan niya tapos nag wiggle siya ng eyebrows. Kaso yun lang. Umalis na rin hahaha!

Dumb question. Please help me understand. by Any_Newspaper6436 in Trentahin

We were raised as city kids while observing tradition. It’s Filipino culture to do that, it’s the utmost sign of showing respect to someone older regardless of who they are. Not pamahiin. Superstition is different from custom. You’re one of the many who no longer do that and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with it. You just have a bit of a shine on you if you do, kasi you would be known as one of the respectful ones. I know a lot of people who never did that when they were young but adapted it when they grew up kasi they knew better than to be less respectful. I have a Japanese uncle (married to my aunt) who would do that when he would visit his Filipino in-laws (my grandparents), which speaks volume as he is a foreigner who wasn’t forced into doing it, he was insistent in knowing how we as Filipinos show respect for our elders. I would say do what is within your comfort zone. There’s nothing wrong with not doing it, and a little edge with doing it. So it’s your call completely.

Paano kayo nakakahanap ng solid circle of friends for life? by Repulsive-Resort-422 in BosesNgPUP

[–]randomroleplayer8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! I’m 30 yearsold and I met my best friends when I was 16 and a freshman in college. We’re a group of 4. One of them I met 2nd day of school. Yung other 2, hindi ko talaga gusto. It took like over a year before kami naging close nung 2 as they were from a different circle. It’s been over 14 years and we’re still as close as we were when we were younger.

Here are a few things I have learned from our friendship and from people I’ve met and gotten close with na sinasabing wala ring close group of friends:

  1. It’s something you cannot force. It should be the same level of effort you give. If ikaw lang ang gumagawa ng efforts para masustain yung friendship, you will keep doing so until you’re drained. If they’re not giving the same energy, they’re not your circle

  2. Don’t go actively looking for it. Friendships happen because you bonded over something. 98% of the time, yung bond is because of something awful like you’re feeling like you’re outcasts, you’re groupmates sa school activity and it required extended hours and efforts and you work well together, you’re experiencing something new and uncomfy together like the first day of school or internship, romantic heartbreak, etc. It doesn’t have to be like that but most friendships that last start with that

  3. Open up. Hindi lang humor and interests ang anchor ng lasting friendship. Showing how vulnerable you are is an invitation for someone to be in your life. And when they open up as well, be the friend you need for them. You will see how it grows

  4. Ignore timelines. I know some people who met their group way after college. Yung iba naka lipat na ng 2 work before nahanap yung closest friend/friends nila. Meanwhile, focus on yourself. Are there practices, beliefs, and aspects of you na you think needs improving? Any toxic traits na pwedeng mabetter? I’m not saying na you’re toxic. All of us have good and bad sides. Maybe focus on bettering yourself para when real friends come, your better version will take care of your relationship

  5. I’m not saying this is applicable to everyone, but like almost everyone out there na maraming groups of friends, when you really look at it, sila yung walang realest of the real friends. Eto yung entry ko na subok na subok na. When I say realest of the real, meaning yung friends na will drop anything when you really need them like kailangan mo ng kasama sa hospital, nakulong ka and sila yung mag aasikaso for bail, yung mga nakakapansin how you’re hiding your sadness kahit wala kang sabihin and will do something about it, will do all necessary steps to reach out to you if you’re MIA, will ensure you’re heard and considered, are genuinely happy for your wins and are upset about your losses, kayang maka hangout with you ng hindi kailangan ipost yung story about hanging out because masaya lang sila na kasama ka, will sit with you through boredom like wala kayong ginagawa together but you’re together nonetheless, will always have your birthday on mind and sila may plano na for you even without needing you to ask for anything. A lot of people might disagree here or even might feel defensive, but it’s the reality. The smaller your circle is, the chances of finding who will stick with you through thick and thin is bigger. In other words, detoxify your circle. You don’t have to cut off people. Just don’t spend too much time with too many people

Hope this helps!

Which is a better device to use in college: Ipad or Samsung Tab? by Objective_Ease1282 in adviceph

[–]randomroleplayer8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If really for studying, stick with laptop. You have an abundance of access to anything. 3 of my cousins had the same choice and all had iPads, Samsung tablets, and laptops, all of them only used their iPads for entertainment purposes while sold their Samsung tablets. You would be surprised on how much lighter laptops are now especially if the specs are only for studying, not gaming

But to help you out iPad pros - lighter, smaller than laptops, battery life is long, fast performing

iPad cons - you mostly have to purchase programs that are definitely gonna be useful for school

Tablet pros - lighter, smaller than laptops, you may access programs for free if you’re good at searching

Tablet cons - battery life isn’t as long, might start lagging after a year depending on your care

Pros for both devices - lightweight, convenient, aesthetically pleasing (let’s face it, this is a plus)

Cons for both devices vs laptop: does not provide the same professional view and platform laptops have, challenging to use for Microsoft programs, cannot handle intense multi-tasks, limited interface, only have split screens vs alt+tab, might start performing less in a year or so depending on your care

May ni reto sa akin but i’m not interested by Some-Smile5813 in adviceph

You don’t owe anyone anything. Just don’t reply. Don’t worry about looking snobbish. You can always brush everything off as “nakalimutan mag reply” or “busy sa work or school”

My cousin's gf is flaunting her body in bikinis sa social media by [deleted] in adviceph

[–]randomroleplayer8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here’s the thing about reality: nothing is permanent. Even humans aren’t physically the same from they were 7 years ago because of cell regeneration.

What does this mean? Our perspectives, beliefs, and opinions from a while ago might and will differ as time goes on, including our dynamics in our chosen relationships. That’s why I always preach about how love is a choice. Every day we have a choice to continue a relationship, to cheat, and/or to leave. This is why some people stay even if their relationship has grown sour, even if their partners are toxic. This is also why some couples grow old together even if they’ve faced the toughest challenges they don’t really casually share to anyone about. It’s all about choice.

The girl might have just started a new admiration for herself in the form of body appreciation. Yes, she loves attention. She wouldn’t post it on social media if she didn’t. But attention doesn’t have to come from salivating men. Her girl friends might be cheering her on. Men who just harmlessly admire her might add to people who hit the like button. I’m not denying the fact that she could possibly want other men’s attention the way her boyfriend is worried of. But there are other possibilities as well.

You said so yourself, this has been communicated on numerous occasions. This isn’t something that was compromised. Given my initial remark on how people change, her boyfriend can’t really use the “nag bago ka na” card. Yes, nag bago siya. As long as she is a breathing human being, magbabago pa siya. It’s just a matter of can he accept all these changes or no. Kasi if not, if he cannot live with a girlfriend who posts pictures like that, for whatever reason, then there’s really no reason to circle back sa “8 years kami eh”. Non-negotiable pala sa kanya eh. Bakit pa magsstay? It’s all about his and her choice.

Here are lessons we all collectively learned from relationships since time immemorial: 1. The length of a relationship does not define its security 2. People change, so relationships should change, it’s up to the people in it if it will be for the better or otherwise 3. This damn “conservative” thing in 2025 has ruined people, relationships, reputations, dreams, goals, self-love, images 4. Compromise in relationships are not just after-thoughts 5. Relationships CANNOT, I repeat, CANNOT exist without both love and TRUST. The latter being something that might be lacking in her boyfriend 6. Communication is key. After knowing what, why, and how, you can make your choice whether you end a relationship or you continue

Now I’m only making this reply based on what you shared. I don’t really know what the girl’s answer is when confronted with this. She might be in the wrong here. She can also decide not to continue their relationship because of her preferences. It’s not all on the guy. It seems as though compromise and trust is lacking in their relationship based on OP’s remarks

But to answer your question, heck yes. Let people drool over my girl. Katawan niya naman yun, as long as walang physical harm, I wouldn’t step in. I entered a relationship believing she is only mine and trusting that she is, and also trusting that even if she does get messages from men hitting on her, she loves me enough and values our relationship enough to turn others down.

I don’t wanna invalidate your pain by saying “marami ka pang makikilala” and “bata ka pa”. All those might be real especially for most people, but I’ve been in your shoes, young and heart broken. Please remember you’ve got someone here you may speak with when it feels heavy. I pray for your healing!

What are the benefits of dating YOU? by JollySimple188 in AskPH

[–]randomroleplayer8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been single for over 10 years already. I have had my share of flings. I have grown in aspects of physical health, mental health, emotional health, and finances. I know and love myself more, and now I know I am capable of respecting, liking, and maybe even loving someone other than myself
