Envy is okay to feel, it’s a human emotion. It’s how you respond to it that can make a difference. You need to force yourself to have a positive outlook (if you struggle with this, affirmations can help trick your brain into thinking more positively over time, especially when you say them out loud). Once you start getting hope again, figure out......   reply

Hey, chicks before dicks. Even if you care about him, he shouldn’t threaten you like that. Don’t sacrifice a potential lifelong friendship for a dill weed that only likes the concept of a romantic partner. The fact that he is treating you like this makes me doubt that he cares about you as a person. I know that it’s hard to hear, but it’s d......   reply

I got about 12/1600+ back, but I’ve been slowly rebuilding and actually adding stuff to lists this time to make it easier in case this happens again :/   reply

Yeah, 104F is horrible w/o AC, especially with humidity. The only time I was forced to deal with that much heat was in Arizona (but it was 114F dry heat, so it barely counts) or when or AC used to break in the summer. Please get cold towels (wet, ideally dipped in ice), and drink a ton of cold water (ideally with ice). If y’all are in an area wi......   reply

I had an opportunity to study abroad a couple years ago which led me to start learning Italian. I’ve recently switched my minor to Italian in an effort to take my learning for seriously. Learning styles will be different for everyone. What I’ve found works for my reading and listening comprehension is listening to music or podcasts in your ta......   reply

I want to start going to the gym again, I miss having muscles (I stopped lifting and sports and have been slowly degrading from there)   reply

I don’t like when people think I’m younger. People keep asking if my sister and I are twins (I’m 2 years older), and it just gets on my nerves for some reason   reply

I always think I did really well on a test, then I get it back and it’s filled with stupid mistakes   reply

Mudslides (basically a milkshake and can be frozen or classic), any sort of daiquiri, or pina coladas. If you want something a bit less sweet, a Moscow mule (or any sort of mule) is a good alternative. It might also be a good idea to have some apple juices as an N/A alternative or beers just in case he decides to be anti cocktail   1 reply

I know I often mistake thirst for hunger. Are you drinking enough water? The general recommendation for active people is half your body weight (lbs) in fluid oz. (Ex: if I weigh 120lbs, I need to drink 60floz of water a day to stay hydrated). Also, aim for more protein heavy meals. Protein increases satiation, so you can go longer in between meals.......   1 reply

I low key just turn them off and approach the situation very logically. When I have time, I watch or read something very sad, happy, etc (just something that invokes strong emotions) to make myself cry out all the built up chemicals in my head from suppressing stuff. Not sure if it’s healthy, but it keeps me from slapping a bitch or overreacting ......   reply

I follow people who have read a bunch of stuff that I enjoyed. When I need good recs, I can just see what they have been up to lately   reply

Looks don’t matter. Even if it’s something you are self conscious about, someone else might absolutely love it. Everyone has different tastes and personality tends to trump looks. I’ve gone on dates with some people who weren’t my type solely because they made me laugh or we had similar interests. Asking for a number doesn’t mean you have......   reply

Caesar used to walk around the senate wearing red, leather knee-highs saying it was the fashion during the kingdom era (Rome was a kingdom before all the Republic and Empire stuff started)   reply
