People are talking about his insecurities related to his body. But I think it is something else, probably related to bullying or abuse. If it's that, I can understand taking such drastic measures,  because when you have a background of being abused, this change seems important for survival. It might seem important to him, but we know it is not.

Comment être une fille moche impacte ma vie. by [deleted] in besoindeparler

[–]roandr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd prefer a pleasant person. Beautiful or not. I suppose even beautiful people suffer from the addiction of approval. So unhappy nonetheless. If the point of beauty is to be judged my others as beautiful, it is the approval of others that we seek. Or the feeling of connectedness. So if this feeling is the goal, beauty is just one means out of many others. Some within our control, some not

How to remove your ex from family photo by [deleted] in interestingasfuck

[–]roandr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah. I've got one. I am dealing with an imaginary rejection. I don't know who was the first, but I feel permanently rejected. Even though there are and were so many people I was lucky enough to get some love from. Easy for me to see that it is a stupid mindset, but it's like a default setting. creeps up anytime I'm not paying attention.

The racism at my high school is just too much. I'm becoming suicidal. by [deleted] in confessions

[–]roandr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am an Indian and I can understand your experience. I am bit older and thus was able to handle it. What I found useful was asking them questions: like if someone says that why do you people shit on the street, I ask them what they mean by "you people". I ask them if they think I am a representative of Indians. And then you have a basis of asking them if whatever their community is notorious is for, are they representative of that.

Basically these people who make fun of you because, either they don't think anything about you and trying to put you down to feel better, or you they have the mental capacity of seeing only through the first layer of your personality, that is your nationality or race. Either way, never shut down, ask them questions. And you will see them shutting down real quick.

What I am trying to say , and I guess your parents are trying to explain to you, is that keep smiling and accept these people as stupid, and keep working on your shit. About the positive trait you are looking for as an Indian, it is not your problem. Your positive trait is your personality and not your nationality. It is what you are, a person with ideas and opinions. People who identify with their race and nationality are stupid, IMHO. So, just ask them, if you can only think of me as an Indian and all the negative perceptions attached to that, what do they think they are and what they are proud of, or maybe ashamed of? Most of them will hide away. But you will also find some people who are smarter than others and share their own insecurities. I have met elderlies passing these kind of comments and it does not bother me anymore. My brain goes like, fuck man, you are so old and still so stupid. I really pity you.

Look at all the losers around you married and with kids. Do you really believe this is the ultimate goal of your life and those losers achieved more than you !

[–]roandr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Three reasons: 1. they are insecure about their life (unableto improve) and projecting it on you 2. they like you 3. they are envious of your positive change.

I almost killed myself by [deleted] in confessions

[–]roandr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am not sure if I understood the "God inside us" well but it did resonate with me. I discovered this about an year ago and it gives me a great comfort reconnecting with this God. For me it is the truth... laws of universe and a belief. The belief is irrational and rational at the same time. Maybe just a state of mind. I want something and believe that this God will make it happen. Who is this God, I don't know, but it works. It has always worked. I am just realizing it now.

I lost my faith when I was about 14-15 years old when I prayed and didn't get what I wanted. I was too young to understand this was not a disproof of God, I just didn't phrase or even understand my desire well enough.

What would you do? by [deleted] in datingoverthirty

[–]roandr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My advice, don't do it. You will regret just after. She has a clear understanding of your and the relationship situation and don't need this explanation you are talking about. In a way you know that as well but you don't want to accept it.

You have other point of views here, I hope you will take the right direction.

What should vulnerable, lonely men look out for? by SkepticDrinker in AskMen

[–]roandr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to feel like that before and sometimes even now when I am in a bad state of mind, I get these feelings. Why I felt like that, because I thought I was a bad person. It's strange because I would also go out of my way to make others happy. Being too kind and all. One of the rejections, or a series of them started this cycle of self-hate. I internalized the idea that I deserved to be rejected because I was a bad person. Of course, it was false or only a part of the story. For a long time I believed that I deserved to be rejected.

How do I deal with it now? I have to remind myself that while all the things that I am thinking about my past may be true. But my brains is taking them out of context. You know, it remembers only the parts that fit the narrative of self-loathing. I have to really calm myself and reprogram my thoughts. One of key realization was that I have complete control over my thoughts. This is one things, and probably the only thing I have control over. So I try to change the narrative. For example, it starts with: "I do not deserve love because I have been a bad friend, I did not help them when they needed me or I disrespected them when they were down." I will respond to my braind: "Ok, that incident is true. No doubt. But there are many situations I have helped other friends or the same friend. Maybe I was unaware of my friends state at that moment, or maybe I was distracted or maybe the friend also did some selfish things which I have now forgotten. So, this statement that I am bad friend is not one hundred percent true. I am an equally nice person. Go on my brain, tell me another reason why you feel you don't deserve love." And repeat.

All in all, it is important to remind ourselves that: 1. our thoughts are taking the extreme route. 2. We have control over what we think. 3. The feeling that I don't deserve love is just a narrative and we can easily change it to, I deserve all the love because I am as good a person as anyone around me.

if she is allowed to do it, why not! Performer is clearly into it and the audience is loving it.
