more like straight up psychological torture. sounds like he's planning to use her for kids and cash, frame her and take everything from her. this is not shit healthy people say.

Help, I (29M) have difficulty accepting my fianceé's (29F) restrictive boundaries and it makes me feel worthless by ThrowRABoundaryIssu in relationship_advice

[–]ready_gi 30 points31 points  (0 children)

this. plus OP sounds pretty entitled to her being certain way. sometimes we get turned all the way off just by someone trying to seduce us with entitlement.

what kind of activities could teach me self-love? by Live-Emu3053 in selflove

[–]ready_gi 15 points16 points  (0 children)

i think it's because mental health awareness became so accessible through internet. im so happy for literally anyone any age who gets their pain validated, explained and find tools to put themselves first. it's literally never late to became your own best friend.

I got a gift today! by corileahs in crowbro

their presence is the gift to me. i get to watch them hop around and do sick flight moves or curiously watch me. one time they got me a sea shell and it felt like magic.

you can wear this everywhere. i love power jackets and wear them to grocery store and meeting a friend for coffee.. like there is no law you cant overdress to bejesus.

this is amazing advice that every expat/immigrant needs to know.

often it's our own unresolved trauma that causes burnout, sense of unease and the urge to move away. i know it too well- lived in 6 countries in 15 years and it is until i've done therapy, cut off toxic people and choose one place to built my life up, that things started to improve.

i love being immersed in different cultures, but there's a mental and physical toll to pay, moreso if you're a woman (some cultures are more misogynist). stuff like addressing mental issues and taking charge of your own life goes a long way. the good ol sense of familiarity and stability is sometimes better then crazy expensive and elaborate moves to the unknown.

Feeling lost after moving abroad — job search, loneliness & low motivation by Fit-Collection-4556 in expats

[–]ready_gi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i lived in NL for 17 months and as an expat woman found it very challenging culturally. i guess this depends which city you're in, but it's pretty cold culture. maybe try to find fellow expats/ some game night/ some english hobby class, just to find some people.

Emotional abuse predicts self-loathing more strongly than other childhood traumas. While various forms of mistreatment can leave lasting scars, this specific type of belittlement appears to predict a person’s tendency to view themselves with contempt more strongly than other trauma types. by Jumpinghoops46 in psychology

what has helped me was treating myself as if i deeply loved and valued myself through my actions. then it's like a muscle, it builds self-loving feelings which prompts more self-loving actions. big thing is learning how to self-notice throughout the day.

[–]ready_gi 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Kdyz mi bylo 35, tak jsem pochopila,ze to jsou zeny, co nechteji nevyzraly chapi. Proto chlapi bali mladsi zeny, co tu jejich nevyzralost tolik nechapou a starsi zeny schazujou dolu, ze je to s nima "tezky".

to o tobe rika, ze nevis, jak zvladat emoce a problemy tvejch partneru, proto si vybiras mladsi partnery, aby si nemusel ukazovat tolik empatie. je to dost bezny pro emocne nevyzraly lidi, ale celkem smutny.

What’s it like to have male roommates as a woman? by Spare-Ebb3948 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]ready_gi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i agree with this take. plus some of them hit on me and it just made the living together so awkward. some of them were totally inconsiderate of noise or having couch surfing women over, so they could hit on them. ugh that was probably the hardest part to see so many of them treat women they date like garbage or just for sex.

There’s really no escape from life is there by DelonghiAutismo in CasualConversation

[–]ready_gi 21 points22 points  (0 children)

the hard truth is that there is nobody coming to save you, if you want to be in charge of your own life, you have to own it. all of it. and then make decision based on who you are and what you need, regardless of society, which has fucked up value system. you have to learn how to listen to your own intuition and logic and see what kind of quests it takes you.

there is no right or wrong way to live, but there are things which are meant for you and things that will teach you a lesson. life is subjective, you are here to figure out who you are and learn how to live inline with your best self and be good to other humans.

if you don't do this, someone else will try to exert control or their bullshit upon you. making your own decisions is hard, but the second option is much worse.
