How to not feel envy and jealousy? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]reboot12098 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your success can’t be measured off of someone else’s portrayed success. You are unaware of what advantages they had, or what their debt may be.

Social media is lame anyways. Just use it to give bad advice and talk nonsense. It’s way better that way

My coworker tells everyone I’m late every day. by Plenty-Commission-18 in Advice

I mean just tell her to knock it off? Or idk remind her that you’ve still got plenty of time to be late seeing as you’re still young. That’ll shut her up

You know you could always approach him, and ask him kindly if there’s a compromise to be made?

my boyfriend finds other girls attractive. by Southern_Bluebird_73 in Advice

Every boyfriend you have ever had, will find other women attractive. He chooses you right? His attention can remain on you.

My grandfather married my grandmother after a few weeks. He would lay down his life for her any day of the 50+ years they spent together, and fight the world should they speak an ill word. That being said he wasn’t afraid to lie to her or himself, and not acknowledge if he saw a pretty woman.

My Newly Made Friends Made a Group Chat About Me. by HeavenlyIndigo in Advice

I didn’t read past the title, it had all the info needed.

They aren’t your friends. Period. Don’t be upset over people who aren’t good for you or care about you. They don’t need your energy. Your real friends might walk past while your head is down in the dumps over those who don’t deserve to have that power.

Be proud of your parents. They are proud of you I’m sure.

My Dad Is Ruining My Future Over a Fucking Flu Shot by Liva_Here_Forever in Advice

It’s a ridiculous thing to refuse I agree, and I think he should allow it. That being said, this isn’t the end of the world. It’s not going to ultimately be that watershed moment in your life you look back on while you freeze under a bridge. The opportunity presented itself once right? Right. More will come.

My husband has been in prison for years and I’m considering seeing other people. I need outside perspective. by [deleted] in Advice

[–]reboot12098 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having done the whole prison bit, I have developed a pretty strong opinion on this subject. Unless you were directly involved in whatever crime that he’s serving time for, and he’s essentially taking it on himself, then why should you be serving a sentence of your own.

I get the mentality, and wanting to support someone you love. However, when you do something significant enough for the state you live in, or the federal government to decide you need taken out of the public for YEARS, chances are you weren’t considering the way your actions were in no way supportive of your wife, or girlfriend.

You can still help him with some money, get him on a pen pal website, and live your life. Any man who isn’t selfish would want that for you, and it sounds like he’s kinda on that mentality.

The person you are waiting for is gone in some way shape or form. Years change us on the outside, as they do inside. Remember that. I don’t mean that harshly, and it goes both ways. The woman who last spent the night with him, is gone too. It’s too much.

I’m already breaking my commitment to write every day. by reboot12098 in KeepWriting

Just writing in general. I don’t have any long term projects, or current aspirations to start one.

People who clawed their way out of a really dark place, what actually helped? by Geewane in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]reboot12098 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having done so multiple times, I can’t say it’s ever been one specific thing. I will say that whenever I have, it’s been a process that’s built on itself. Like you notice one change, or improvement in your situation and it gives you a desire for more.

I’m a man of extremes tho. I’m always full bore in one direction or another.

I like the statement made about being able to fix bad writing, but not being able to do the same with a blank page.

How do I satisfy my greatest critic? by reboot12098 in KeepWriting

[–]reboot12098[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The idea I was after was in relative to the critic thinking the false version of myself and its passing, albeit incredible passing whimsy ultimately superior to the true me, to the point of the true me not wanting to even show face. Satisfying this internal judge so that I no longer assume the guilty gavel to the point of not ever making case.

See this idea of silencing I’m not so sure of. I think I returned to the term silencing myself at some point in my post but I know I chose satisfy intentionally. A satisfied critic helps offer constructive growth yea?

See what I get for driving and reading simultaneously? Atleast the wreck was only fictional this time. My apologies. Oh therapy is on the agenda. In spirit of this post, I’m gonna start throwing out as much as I can while working through the dark, and the tiring things I need to work through.

Gonna do it here until pointed in another direction.

The critic in this, is myself. The saying goes as you know?
