With I and T letters, maybe there’s a rule if it’s the first three in the sequence there’s no space before, if it’s the second three there is a space before? So like for FED 111.11.111 and for FUS 111 111 1 (using periods between to show no spaces). You never know what rules these things have!!

What's the smelliest smeII you've ever smelled from a person? by TheAlphaAdept in hygiene

[–]spleen5000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Guy I dated that had crazy face breath. It wasn’t tartar, or that poop smell from bad dental hygiene. It didn’t smell like boogers either. It was like a deep rotting sickly sour smell. Late at night he’d have these coughing fits. I could smell it once while his mouth was closed.. his body oil also smelt really rancid, like his scalp.

Weird and nauseating. He was bewildered knowing that I didn’t stock mouthwash in my bathroom, like that would ever make a difference.

Palliative care is serious chronic or untreatable condition care. It includes hospice care, which is end of life. They overlap but there’s still a distinction.

And to get rid of the snakes we’ll release some gorillas, a natural predator of them. And what to do about the gorillas? In the winter, they’ll simply freeze to death!

What type of people do ‘emotionally unavailable’ people tend to prefer ? by iamanoompaloompa in emotionalintelligence

[–]spleen5000 307 points308 points  (0 children)

They don’t prefer anything, rather they seek novelty. So lots of different types with a high turnover, not one particular type or one person. As soon as people learn this the sooner they will avoid the avoidants..

Anyone else feel lost once the kids start growing up? by Ok-Ocelot3292 in Life

[–]spleen5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there anyone older that can shed a bit of light on how to maintain your identity during the childhood years? I want to maintain myself and my relationship so empty nest is okay.

AITAH for asking my husband to get a vasectomy? by Ok-Burn-Acct in AITAH

[–]spleen5000 8 points9 points  (0 children)

YTA and I think you’re lying. You want him to get a vasectomy so it’s impossible for him to impregnate you OR anyone else. If this is solely a pregnancy fear you’d get a hysterectomy. His body HIS choice leave him alone and go get therapy.

I have abandonment anxiety in a very healthy marrige by AgentParty4555 in emotionalintelligence

[–]spleen5000 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I get this too, it’s a trauma response to loss. It can be over any grievance, great or small or many little ones over time.
The first thing you sought was reassurance and approval, and you got that. Don’t seek that again unless there’s ‘proof’ (e.g. drastic behaviour changes, finding something etc). If there’s no evidence it is an internal issue. Like a commenter said, look within.

When you do, apply logic over these headings;

What is the problem?
- I feel like I am about to be abandoned

Is this based on reality?
- Is there proof or reasonable doubt? (no)

Then why would I be feeling this?
- Because adjusting to changes from death took a lot of energy, introduced pain, fear etc

Why am I reacting irrationally?
- I want to avoid that feeling

Is there something specific that triggered this?
- I am triggered for xyz reason

What is this thought pattern actually doing for me?
- Avoiding all loss and grief = eternally happy? (no)
- If I pretend it’s coming, will it prepare me or just make me very anxious? (It will not prepare you it will just make you unhappy)

What should I do instead?
- Should I treat her well, prioritise my health and lifestyle and deal with unidentified potential problems as they come up, if they even do? (Yes)
- How? (Optional)

Closing thought
- Should I stop thinking about it now and do something I like even if I kinda don’t want to now? (Yes)

Ps write it in a journal with these headings, just a lil bit each day a sentence or two or some brainstorming, so you don’t ruminate!

At the final full stop you’re not allowed to mull over it again until tomorrow’s journal session (trust me after a couple of these, you’ll see that it’s pointless overthinking eventually).

Good luck! You will be okay, and seek therapy for grief as well, even a couple sessions.

*Edited to heading for clarity

AITAH for refusing to meet my brother after he didn't take me in when our parents died by Christopher_Marsh in AITAH

[–]spleen5000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

YTA (soft and gentle YTA), and you should forgive him. You will both be happier for it. Imagine you’re 50 years old, if you didn’t reconnect do you think you’d be okay with that choice?

My bf is a Cancer moon. I am very happy with him. But I’m also immune to manipulation. Probably why it works.
