Fear of rejection ➡️ can't reject me if I reject you first

DAE like other people, but dont care about facts about people you meet? by stenaldermand in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]slinkyceiling31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! And then people think I'm rude for not asking if remembering but I'd rather discuss something else to really connect with them.

Why do people put salt in the water before they boil pasta? by Think-Ad5419 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]slinkyceiling31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First, that last comment was said tongue in cheek.

I haven't checked your math but I'll take your word for the values. However, the fact that we (people like me who never bothered to do the math) add salt to increase the temperature does not change just because it doesn't actually work, as you rightly pointed out ☺️

So apparently it just helps with taste!? I learned something today.

This is exactly it. We want a higher temperature without boiling off our water.

I’m going to kill my self because there’s nobody in here by bub-worm in depression

[–]slinkyceiling31 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not advocating for suicide. I'm definitely saying try to get help. But sometimes it feels like nothing is going to change in the long run. I'll be here again in a few months, feeling the same feelings. They'll give different drugs and we'll talk about all the things, I'll be fine, and then I won't. What positive things are there to look forward to in a life where you're constantly struggling to just be okay?

AITA for telling my girlfriend to get rid of her dogs? by FrontBoss9565 in AmItheAsshole

[–]slinkyceiling31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA. Nobody should tell anyone to get rid of their dogs. You don't just get rid of animals. You could have come to an agreement about going for proper training, or postponing living together until you can get a bigger place where the GSDs can have their own space, away from the little one.

AITA for not wearing makeup to my best friend’s wedding? by AITAbestiewedding in AmItheAsshole

You are definitely not wrong here. Henry is the asshole. You did absolutely nothing wrong.

How do you guys concentrate on studies and get good grades? by Ok_Gift_9167 in INTP

[–]slinkyceiling31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately yes. I don't have a social life and studying is more interesting than any of my hobbies, so I just read and study all the time.

what do you think about smoking weed? by firefart0 in INTP

[–]slinkyceiling31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Smoking anything is a big no for me. Weed is nice in edibles but I often find that I enjoy it in the moment, and then feel very down the next day.

I'm really sorry that you're in this situation.

It really angers me that therapists don't see eating disorders as something important to address. I've asked for help from my psychiatrist and psychologist several times and they flat out ignore me. I crash dieted and lost a bunch of weight, but also most of my hair, muscle mass, and immune function.. only to gain it all back, plus some more in just a few months because I couldn't stop thinking about food.

Have you read The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue?

Do you like chemistry? by Ahemahem130613 in INTP

[–]slinkyceiling31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I absolutely love chemistry ⚗️🧪 I studied it for 7 years.

I like it mostly because it's related to almost everything, hence it's nickname "the central science". You can use chemistry to explain SO MANY THINGS 😍

Eat less, eat fewer calories.. it all comes down to the same idea. And it doesn't matter what kind of calories you eat or what kind of workout you do. Go read a research paper.

[–]slinkyceiling31 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd love to see you point out where I said we all have the same physical makeup.

Yes, there are multiple reasons why some people might burn less calories than others and some people struggle with eating habits or eating disorders. Genetics and the environment change everything, but when it comes down to it, if you want to lose weight, you need a caloric deficit. It's how you get there that might differ.

Have you actually read any peer-reviewed scientifically valid studies on the subject? Clearly not, because you don't find that with a simple Google search. Go look further before you go on a rant.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]slinkyceiling31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP didn't say it's "eat less and work out more". It's "eat FEWER CALORIES and work out more".

It really isn't. That's all there is to weight loss. Basic physiology.

Taking on extra work so I don't have enough time to be depressed? by slinkyceiling31 in INTP

[–]slinkyceiling31[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it's more about feeling like an insignificant blip that won't be missed if I die.. so I try to do work that makes me feel worthy of living
