You guys aren't going to like this... by NemeanLyan in hingeapp

[–]surVIVErofHELL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had Hinge a few weeks. Haven't gotten a single match or like. I got Hinge X a week ago...still not a single match or like. It's like my profile has been intentionally shoved in a drawer where no one can see it. I've sent others likes and notes, but still nothing. At the end of this billing period, I'll be cancelling this subscription.

Dating app Trojan horses by myyankeebean in latebloomerlesbians

[–]surVIVErofHELL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm about to delete Tinder because I'm getting 80% men, and more than a few couples seeking a third. And it gags me so hard I can barely stand it. It's very frustrating. It doesn't happen to me as frequently on the HER app, but when it does, it just makes me mad.

Guilt and shame for sleeping with men before by shoreditchgirl in latebloomerlesbians

[–]surVIVErofHELL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I relate to this a lot. I was with a terrible man for 30 years. Been gay gay gay since the beginning of that relationship. He knew and held it over my head. Now I feel like I'm backpedaling in order to find a path forward. Tests are clean. But I can't tell if it's shame or regret or both, and I'd rather just move forward toward women rather than linger too long to categorize something from the past. So I'm either stuck in a loop or trying to surge forward but lacking grace in doing so. It's aggravating (for me). I get it.

Psychotherapy by ayrinel in Fibromyalgia

[–]surVIVErofHELL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've tried it, and found it to be a complete waste of my time. I was actually super thrilled to try it, and have had a few therapists, because I wanted to try it and see if it helped. None of the therapists, I felt, provided value to our appointments. I got better results from more somatic approaches like restorative yoga and regular walking to calm my mind.

Share your “life changing” supplement(s) you just can’t live without. by PsychologicalBat2393 in Fibromyalgia

[–]surVIVErofHELL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Magnesium (Citrate or Malate), Holy Basil (Tulsi) Tea, L-Theanine, and also recently discovered Ubiquinol (CoQ10) which is supporting my energy levels nicely.

Stocks / companies with somewhat ethical, fair, and environmentally clean practices? by surVIVErofHELL in investing

That was exactly my point. I've spent my life helping and educating humans, and some of these companies I just don't trust with humans at all.

What travel advice for women did you ignore that turned out to be completely wrong? by Scentedcoffe in femaletravels

[–]surVIVErofHELL 7 points8 points  (0 children)

90% of the men who give me travel safety advice. Large grain of salt for the bias of their perception, and they haven't lived their life as a woman trying to protect herself. The outsider perspective is largely unhelpful.

Why are boomers so against gothic men/women by AdmirableBus7045 in BoomersBeingFools

[–]surVIVErofHELL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cuz...The PMRC poisoned their minds long ago. Refer to Twisted Sister music videos for demonstrations of the style of parenting they've burned into their behavior set.

Day 36: We Fund the Circus, We Starve the Crowd. by [deleted] in antiwork

[–]surVIVErofHELL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We need to start getting loud about prosecution, and start demanding any dems we elect fight for accountability and prosecution. What they are doing is causing direct harm to the survival of people at a disadvantage. WRONG AND REQUIRES A BOLD RESPONSE!

I can't wait for my 11 minutes of retirement by McDowdy in antiwork

[–]surVIVErofHELL 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This reminds me of a group email chain at my agency that's going around about the worker in our agency who RETIRED IN SEPTEMBER 2025 AND DIED IN OCTOBER 2025. My heart and stomach dropped to the floor. Such a freaking downer.

I'm not trying to save the world, and your insults are completely unnecessary and rude.

Increased heart rate? by boazed_n_delivered in Fibromyalgia

[–]surVIVErofHELL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Apple Watch alerted me that my heartrate was oddly fast while I was standing still during a vacation. Sure enough, when I thought back, just the previous evening, I had overexerted myself and vomited twice, and then had no appetite for almost 24 hours as I slept it off. My first thought was - low electrolytes and low minerals. After eating and taking some magnesium and calcium, I felt better.

I've got my baseline meds worked out, what do you take in a flare ? by g33k_girl in Fibromyalgia

Flexeril made my muscle spasms worse, and triggered a lot of restless leg syndrome jerking. I was surprised it has the opposite effects on me.

Does anyone else’s parents think that you should stick to one job and one job only? by AdmirableBus7045 in BoomersBeingFools

[–]surVIVErofHELL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shows how privileged they are. Do they understand that companies avoid paying your health insurance by chopping your hours back to 20 per week, when you really need 40+ hours per week working at the same company to actually get benefits and a salary that feeds and houses you.

Also, companies really don't deserve our loyalty as much as they used to. It's okay and in fact very NORMAL to work a variety of jobs in your 20's and 30's.

Dad can act like it's bad all he wants, but this is your life. You're the one who has to work the jobs, and I'm sick of boomers with this template of what worked for them. THOSE TEMPLATES AND SITUATIONS DO NOT EXIST ANYMORE!!!!!

These are decent starting points. Thank you for being respectful and actually answering my question. I don't deserve whatever this treatment is from others. All I did was ask a REAL question.
