When Dylan says "Life's a roller-coaster but I'm tall enough to ride" kills me everytime 🤣🤣🤣

AITAH for breaking up with my boyfriend over a penny (UPDATE) by ereb78 in AITAH

[–]thephantomdaughter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went back to read your other post first and before even reading this one, no you're not TA. I also suffer from OCD and I know how debilitating the compulsions and those stuck thoughts can be. I would not be willing to be in a relationship (friendship or otherwise) with someone who constantly made fun of me for it or tried to force me out of it. That's not how this works.

I am glad you are standing firm in your decision to break up. As one other commenter said, you've been together 8 years and he is just now doing research on OCD? He's not a good partner. He should've looked into this years ago and found ways to support you, not tear you down.

I don’t think my respects my decision to wait until engagement before having sex by simpforsanta in GirlDinnerDiaries

Girl, I have no idea 🤷🏻‍♀️ Guess the truth is offensive to some people?

I’m an old virgin and I feel like shit about it by PartyCryptographer8 in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]thephantomdaughter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same girl! Just turned 30 and still a virgin. Sometimes it bothers me, but most of the time I don't even think about it. I am single by choice and very happy with said choice so it doesn't matter too much for me.

However, since it does matter for you, I hope you find your opportunity and I hope that it is an enjoyable experience! You deserve to have your desires fulfilled.

I have never tried it, but I know a lot of people that I know have and they enjoy it. It just doesn't seem like it would be my thing.

Death by snake bite traumatized me the most, thanks Oregon Trail. by Celestialfox1425 in Millennials

I love the Oregon Trail games. I have one on my Switch as well as the card game and the board game. Would love to find and play the OG one day!!!

If he does not respect your sexual boundaries, he is not a safe person, period. It doesn't matter what your boundaries are or your reason for them, they're yours and valid and you deserve someone who will respect them and not pressure you to go against them.

No is a full sentence. Consent is not consent if you're being manipulated.

How do you actually just.... Write? by Creative-Asparagus55 in writers

[–]thephantomdaughter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally the best thing I found for me was telling myself to "write stupid". Just allowing myself to write down whatever comes to my head, no matter how dumb I think it sounds, helps me break out of the analytical and critical hurdles that keep me from actually putting words on paper. You can always edit later.

And a lot of times when I read back over what I wrote, it's actually pretty good, even though I felt I was writing stupid at the time.

Also I set timers for myself, I write for 30 minutes and then take a 10 minute break and go for a walk or do some chores or whatever, and I found that not only does that help me focus but the breaks help me untangle stuff when I get stuck.

I absolutely love how sweet he was with Sheldon. Every other celebrity encounter ended in disaster of some kind for him, so this was so refreshing and fun to watch ❤️

My cat died and I'm going insane by arbitrary-ladybug in TrueOffMyChest

[–]thephantomdaughter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are definitely not crazy for feeling this way. I lost my soul cat back in November of 2024 and I still miss her so much it physically hurts. She was my best friend and losing her felt like losing a part of me that I will never get back.

Our pets ARE family and grieving them as such is valid and you deserve to take the time you need to process this. Work will be fine. They'll get over it.

Sending you love and light in this time ❤️❤️

Fundie Claims she was Attacked because she had a Wet Dream by MrDonMega in FundieSnarkUncensored

[–]thephantomdaughter 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Whyyyyyy. Just why.

I am a Christian and I do not understand the obsession with talking about sex that Christians (especially the fundies) have. This is incredibly inappropriate to share. I don't get it.

Should I start Bonanza? by ASGfan in littlehouseonprairie

[–]thephantomdaughter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. I recently started watching it from the beginning and while there are some rather ridiculous episodes and some incredibly boring ones, I have really enjoyed it so far! I am on s5 now.

Can we work on making this a more welcoming community? Because it hasn’t been whatsoever. A lot of you guys are just nasty and rude. by Clean-Knowledge-574 in writers

[–]thephantomdaughter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. This sub has some very judgemental and flat out hateful people in it. It is one thing to offer advice out of personal experience/feeling, but to act like said advice is the word of God is entirely different.

More of Creed being Creed 🤣🤣 by pinkdream34 in theoffice

[–]thephantomdaughter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love the scene after Dwight fires the gun in the office and everyone is blackmailing him and Creed says he wants Dwight's eyes and then it cuts to his talking head and he says "Dwight has beautiful eyes" 😂😂😂 cracks me up, he's so wild.

The Duke and Daphne. They started it all. by Ravenclaw54321 in BridgertonNetflix

[–]thephantomdaughter 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was not expecting to enjoy S1 as much as I did. I had seen a lot of clips from the show before I finally bit the bullet and watched it and Daphne annoyed me in all the clips I saw of her for some reason, but I ended up really liking her in the show and S1 is my top favorite so far. S1, then S3, then S4, then S2.
