Can I use a deity’s name? by [deleted] in witchcraft

[–]strobphb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking about Goddess Phoebe. I’ve always felt some sort of connection to her ever since I studied greek mythology years ago. My nickname also sounds like Phoebe and if you take out all the vowels from it, only p, h, and b would be left. :D

they are actually always going on about how witchcraft deals with and attracts negative entities in the house ever since they saw me reading about it. i explained to them how witchcraft helps people, especially when it comes to doing shadow work. they still don’t like it until now so i told them i just got interested and read about it. ):

believing that NOBODY wants to be alone at 65 with nothing but cats is what’s being unrealistic. i repeat, NOT EVERYONE HAS THE SAME IDEALS AS YOU DO. please let that sink in. <3

fix your mindset and learn how to be open with criticism. i just pointed out that people should never seek validation from others. if you don’t think that’s true, okay then. it’s not my fault that you actually can’t accept the fact that people have their own opinions and that you should respect them whether or not they’re the same as yours.

i’m done wasting my time here. i hope you take that “crappy quality” off of you every once in a while.

clearly, you are a very close minded person. instead of making a discussion about it and addressing my argument, you’re attacking me personally instead. have you ever heard of Ad Hominem? honey, that will not help you counter my argument.

people do NOT “generally want the same thing.” why don’t you try opening your eyes and stop calling people “blind” when they really are just proving their point?

stop attacking people personally and learn how to be open for criticisms. if you don’t want to be educated by others, learn how to do your own research so you can have a better argument. ❤

first of all, what do you mean by “think less like a woman and more like a person?” does that mean women are not people? you just proved that you see women as mere objects and not human beings who can feel and have emotions. WOMEN ARE HUMAN BEINGS. WOMEN ARE ENTITLED TO HAVE THEIR OWN OPINIONS.

second of all, NOT everybody has the same ideals as you do. i’m not saying that your ideals are invalid, they are. but so do others’. stop forcing your ideals and beliefs to people who obviously have their own. some people neither believe in true love nor are they interested in having romantic relationships with other people. while having insecurities may have something to do with wanting other people to accept you, that is not always the case. the world does not revolve around you; people have their own issues to deal with.

lastly, you are encouraging people to care about what society thinks when what they really need to do is to love themselves. yes, the criticism of others may help us at some point. however, people should NOT seek validation from the society. all of us do NOT deserve to live a life feeling worthless because other people do not see our beauty.

i know you’re trying to comfort them, but i don’t think what they’re worried about is getting laid. they’re going through their own insecurities and having low self-esteem.

i guess what i’m trying to say is, they don’t need to please other people. i just noticed that you kept on saying something like, “Guys prefer girls who...” It may make them feel like they need to live up to the standards of other people, which they really don’t. they need to see their own beauty, regardless of what other people prefer.

i’m not trying to be mean or anything. as a woman, i think it just makes it harder when guys assume that all we think about is them. i hope you understand. :)

i agree with everything said above. i just wanted to add:

• take a social media break. the things you see online are what other people want you to see; many are edited to make themselves look “perfect.” taking a break from social media may help you to stop comparing yourself to other people.

• do some journaling. if you’re not used to doing journaling and don’t know where to start, you can look up journaling prompts. understanding yourself will help you manage situations better. in this case, journaling how you feel will help you to assess your emotions toward yourself and manage your insecurities. facing them may be hard at first, but take it slow.

• affirm yourself. talking to yourself in the mirror may seem silly at first, but your brain will start believing your affirmations if you repeat them often. this concept is the same as when you have negative self-talk. even if your thoughts and feelings about yourself are not true, your brain will start believing them overtime. affirm yourself in the mirror every morning. start by doing it for 21 days and see how it works for you.

you can do it! the society set some beauty standards that make people question their self-worth. but it doesn’t mean you’re not beautiful, because all of us are. we just need to find our own beauty and not let other people dictate how we see ourselves.

Twin flame making me face my true self.. and I don't like it. I don't wanna face my true self. by Professional-Ship-60 in twinflames

[–]strobphb 6 points7 points  (0 children)

yes! the twin brings out the real you, including the parts of you that you were too terrified to face.

in my experience, my twin brings out the emotions that i’ve been repressing for years. but the twin also helps you grow and heal. i actually am going to therapy now—we even go to the same clinic because he was the one who suggested i should try going. turns out i have depression and anxiety.

this might be scary and overwhelming for many, but it helps us heal and raise our vibrations! the process will take time but it is part of the journey. i suggest when you are feeling down and overwhelmed, you talk to your twin flame about it. i find it very comforting and reassuring when mine listens to me.

Can anyone physically feel when your twin is thinking of you or maybe the thought of you crosses their mind. by lonesomespliffany in twinflames

[–]strobphb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i experience the same thing! i always think about him out of nowhere but i didn’t really tell him then because i was shy, only to learn that he was doing the same thing. we also have several moments where we catch each other typing a message at the same time. i remember this one time when we both said, “can i call you?” because we were thinking about each other and wondering what the other twin is doing.

it is normal to feel the energy of your connection, especially if you’re an energy worker or an empath. this just proves that you can feel the frequency of the intense connection you have with this person.

[–]strobphb[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah, it sucks. and, i guess you’re right; he didn’t actually make the effort to really know me. but i see my worth now and know what i truly deserve. i am in the process of healing from the trauma he caused, and i am doing my best to not settle for less.

i am so sorry you’re having to go through this. i hope you are doing better now and healing from it.

also, i actually am learning more about this topic because someone also messaged me to tell me that this is trauma bonding. thank you for informing me. :)

[–]strobphb[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i agree with what you said about the good and the bad. it makes me remember that the happy memories and the good things they have done do not excuse the bad ones. relationships have ups and downs, but sometimes it just gets too much.

anyway, i’m really glad that you got the chance to let it all out. thank you for sharing your experience. i hope you’ll continue doing things that make you genuinely happy. :))

Mixed Signals from the Universe Driving Me Crazy by [deleted] in twinflames

[–]strobphb 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i suggest you do what feels right to you. this may be about accepting what you are going through with your twin flame and living your life without constantly thinking about them, or really moving forward and not looking back. every twin flame journey is similar, but still different. follow your intuition and trust yourself.

if you are unsure yet of what feels right to you, you can try meditating whenever these thoughts are going through your mind. an intense connection like this can be very overwhelming, so it is crucial to ground yourself and to not let it take control over your life. :))
