2024.05.17 13:26 Legal_Sir5311 AITA for telling my birth father’s wife that I exist
https://www.reddit.com/ComfortLevelPod/s/xTqnXTJpHA Here’s an update!
I (27F) was given up for adoption at birth. I had an amazing childhood, my adoptive family was amazing and I have no negative feelings towards my adoption. I believe it was a blessing, and I am beyond thankful for how my turned out. 4 years ago I discovered who my birth mother was through 23&me. I eventually met her and her husband, and it was amazing. Our relationship is growing, and I am very happy with the reunion. When meeting her, she explained how she got pregnant by basically a 1 night stand in college. She told my birth father and he wanted nothing to do with me. She made the decision to give me up. She told her husband and her two children about me, and she wants me to meet them and be a bigger part of her life. My birth father (from what she told me) never told anyone about me. After meeting her, I contacted him on Facebook. He never responded back and I send various messages thoughout the years. I don’t know what kind of relationship I want from him. I guess I would like an acknowledgment that I exist. I would like to know a little bit about his life, so I can know who I came from. If he doesn’t want contact or a relationship past that, I can accept that. But I am angry that he ignores my multiple attempts to contact him. Obviously no response from him means he wants nothing from me. But I think he should at the least tell me that instead of ignoring me. So a few days ago I was googling him, and I came across his wife’s name. I found her phone number online. I messaged her, told her I was trying to get into contact with her husband and to let him know I will continue to reach out until I get a response. She said she would let him know. I did not say that I was his daughter, as I thought that was his secret to share. The next day my birth mother contacted me and said my birth dad contacted her, asking him to call her. She has reached out to him when she met me and he ignored her. I believe he contacted yer because he wants her to tell me to leave him alone. She said she will support me whatever I decide. She did not respond to him. It made me angry that he reached out to her but still has yet to contact me. So I texted the wife again and told her I was her husbands birth daughter and that I was adopted from birth. Should I not have told her? AITA for exposing that secret to his wife?
UPDATE: so this happened two days after I originally made this post, it just took a while for me to update. My birth dad ended up sending me an email. Basically it said he never saw my messages and would like to email with me back and forth to navigate this difficult and relationship. He claimed he never saw my messages, but they were clearly opened and read on messenger throughout the years. He claimed that he would like to get to know me, but wasn’t sure how to begin.
I’ve had spoken to his older brother a few weeks prior on Facebook. They knew nothing about me, and had no way of contacting him. They said he moved away from the family many years ago and would try to reach out to him for me, but not to have high hopes. They sent photos of the extended family. They asked me about my life, requested photos and overall were very nice. I got the impression that my birthdad was kind of the black sheep of the family. Anyways, after reading his email and taking time to process my own emotions, I came to the conclusion that I was the asshole. I should have never reached out to his wife. I was upset and emotional, and believed I had a right to continue pushing. Who was he to ignore me? But, I did not like how I behaved. I hurt his wife by exposing his secret, and I think that was really shitty of me to do. Regardless of who he was to me, I had no right to potentially blow up his entire life.
I believe he only reached out because his wife found out and pressured him to contact me. Why else would he ignore me for years, then act like he was open to something immediately after his wife found out? these are assumptions, as I do not know his real motivations.
I have decided to not pursue a relationship further. It was causing a lot of sleepless nights, anxiety and I started to question my worth. I decided my life was better and I was happier before pushing this man for a relationship he clearly does not want. Honestly, that might make me a bigger asshole. But, I am happier now, and I honestly believe he is relieved I haven’t reach out since. What do you think? AITA for not reaching out after receiving his email? Or is it better to just move on?

2024.05.17 13:22 anndomi Sinabihan ako ng kawork ko na boring daw buhay ko kasi hindi ako umiinom
Di ko maintindihan kung bakit parang na judge na yung pagkatao ko dahil lang di ako sumasama sa kanila uminom hahahahaha. Nakakainis lang din kasi yung other reason nya is hindi daw kasi ako masyadong nagpopost/story sa instagram and facebook? Anong klaseng dahilan yon.
Halos every week kasi silang umiinom at twice lang ako nakasama, hindi talaga yun para sakin.
Hindi rin ako komportable sa mga topic nila (one of them is yung pinaglilink nila yung dalawa naming kawork knowing na in a relationship yung isa)
Sana magets nila na hindi lang naman sa pag inom pwedeng mag enjoy, i like music kaya mahilig ako pumunta sa music fest at concerts.
Nakakalungkot lang din na parang di na kami ganon kaclose tulad ng dati, di na rin ako makarelate sa topics nila
Di ko alam if san pwede magpost ng rants/ share ng story, pa inform ako para dun na ko magpost next time hahahaha

Hello!
I am looking for a person with whom we can connect with and build a relationship together. Befriend each other from the start, spend time together, have new experiences, be it new to both or teach each other different things. Nerd out about stuff we like, support each other and slowly build our own world. The end goal that I envision and would love to achieve is just some basic, yet, intimate moments, that I believe both would enjoy, like:
About hobbies, I have a lot of hobbies and interests. My main hobbies would be working out, I'm a gym rat, I love working out. Gaming, I enjoy playing video games, board games, just games in general during my free time. Watching videos, streams, shows, movies, anime. I watch Youtube daily. a lot of different stuff. I enjoy watching true crime, like JCS, cam footage, documentaries and etc., games, reviews, news, memes and honestly, pretty much everything, mostly just go off of recommended or something I was waiting for. Besides videos, I mainly watch anime. I love all kinds. TV shows and movies not that much, due to either watching alone is not that interesting, or already watched everything I liked and no new parts, seasons, episodes came out yet. I enjoy listening to music, my taste is all over the place, genre doesn't really matter, I just have to like the song, I also like writing, started writing a story some time back and still in the process of combining all the elements, though it's a very slow process due to time and how much actually gets invested into that. And generally I am artsy, I enjoy imagining and creating. There are more interests, like learning languages for example, or drawing maybe, but they are something I do from time to time maybe, or during different moods, but these are mostly my main hobbies that I do day to day.
My main values are communication and effort. I believe anything can be achieved if both parties put the same amount of effort towards each other. That's how a true relationship will be built. In my eyes, communication is key to everything. I am a non-judgemental person, and always want and willing to talk everything through, so every opinion is heard, every view is understood and both parties are satisfied. Without clear and well communication, everything will just fall apart piece by piece, especially if the communication and effort is one sided.
Your location or distance doesn't matter. My age range is 18 - 35.
If any of this caught your interest, feel free to reach out!

- Having lazy days, where both stay in and do nothing all day, except eat snacks, or maybe order take out, watch shows/movies/anime etc. and just enjoy the time.
- Having game nights, with dim lights, slow, calm, not too loud music, maybe from a playlist that both made, playing board games, something like chess maybe or something we randomly bought at a store the other day, because we thought it looked interesting (and in actuality the board game ends up uninteresting and we just put it back in the box, on a shelf and never touch it again). Video games are also an option, sitting on the couch with two controllers, or whatever else both desire at that time.
- Cook together dishes we both like, or have cooking disasters. Decide to try out a new recipe that both never tried before, completely mess everything up, maybe burn it, maybe miss something, and just laugh about how dumb we are, leave it for next time and just order take out instead.
- Shopping together, for stuff we need and don't need. Occasionally purchasing something goofy or dumb, because in the moment it was funny or interesting. (Yes, like that board game, that's still on the shelf over there by the way, collecting dust).
- Maybe having a mutual collection of something, like figurines, magnets, or something nerdy. Stuff from shows, movies, anime, books, games etc.
- Teaching each other different things, supporting and motivating each other throughout everything.

2024.05.17 13:12 Unique_Relief_5601 Adrenaline is a Hell of a Drug pt. 10/???
Pri’Darya, Alcoranth Male, Pirate Captain
Oh where did it all go wrong? Me crew is dead, and my boy was brutally murdered.
In this void of sensation, I am only left with my thoughts. That stun baton has completely paralyzed me, and I know I’m being taken to a cryopod for holding, so I may as well dwell on my thoughts.
Was it taking the job where we messed up? No, I don’t think so. It was probably the bait. It worked too well. We caught too big of a Trorish.
I sigh internally as I can feel them lifting me up somewhere.
And we had such a good plan too. Well it wasn’t my plan, it was my boy’s plan. To send out a drone ship with a fake weapon system as a decoy so we can sneak up on them, it worked so well that they actually thought it was us.
I can feel them placing me down on a soft platform as a shadow seems to begin looming over me.
That Altrin girl could have gone for a pretty credit if we got her, but what the hells was that rifle she was using? I thought a fully automatic BYR was impossible due to the recoil and explosive payloads. But that white… whatever she was… She is completely terrifying. I thought she would just sell for a lot more since she kept her fur in good condition, so I thought she was just an assistant to that Altrin girl. Never in me life, would I expect a pretty girl like that to be so… terrifyingly deadly.
The air begins to turn cold.
Ah, I’m out of time to think… At least wherever I end up, I hope I don’t see that white furred girl again.
Cerelia, Altrin Female, Captain of The Opal Star
I sigh as we finish escorting the remaining crew to their quarters or work quarters, taking in consideration to take longer routes around the ship to avoid bodies that we haven’t had time to clean up yet. There were a few crewmembers we had to either escort back to their work areas or to communal areas due to bodies that we couldn’t avoid.
It’s going to be a long few days…
My attention is grabbed by my wrist data pad as I get a call from Triwt.
“Hey, Triwt, how are things going on your end?” I ask with a tiredness in my voice as I’ve been awake for roughly 13 or so hours now.
“Well, we’ve managed to move the majority of the bodies. Galactic Law doesn’t allow for spacing bodies.”
“It would be an easier clean up if we could.”
“Yes, but we still have to obey the law.”
We both sigh at the same time while I use my other hand to rub my face, trying to make my exhaustion go away with such a pointless attempt.
“Right, right…” I sigh again before continuing to speak, “Anyways, I’m setting up an autopilot course to take us to Verglas.”
“Verglas?”
“Yeah, sending you the information now.”
There’s a moment of silence from Triwt before she speaks, “You’re kidding me, right?”
“I wish I was.”
“An ice covered planet?
“Mhm.”
“Known to snow almost all the time?”
“Yes, but the cities and spaceport are built around a natural heat signature.”
“... You’re lucky I have a snow coat and that I have fur, but my fur isn’t really good at keeping out the cold.”
I hear her sigh on her end before I chime in.
“Wanna go meet up at Med Bay 07? Check in on Jordan?”
“Jordan? My my, Captain I didn’t know you were interested in him where you're already shortening his name.”
“It’s not like that! He said it was weird to hear everyone saying his ‘full name’ and prefers being called by his ‘first name’.” I huff in slight annoyance and embarrassment.
“Ah okay, does that mean we should all refer to him as Jordan then?”
“I believe so if that’s what he wishes.”
I mean I felt special when he wanted me to call him Jordan, but oh well.
“Okay, I’ll see you there, Cerelia.”
I slowly walk down the hall. It’s been quarantined due to the fact that there’s still blood and bullets on the walls and floor of the corridor. It seems that the trail of blood from Jordan has gone from red to more of a brownish black color.
I look up at a sign in the hallway that reads, “MEDICAL ROOM 07” which I smirk a little.
I always find it funny that despite it being a medical room, everyone calls it a Med Bay. I wonder where that name for it came from.
“Hey Triwt, I’m here-” I cut myself off as before me in the room is Triwt, Lys, and every crew member from the compromised safe room. Well all except for R’dorn.
I’m glad that prick isn’t here, but I wasn’t expecting everyone else to be here.
“Oh uh, hey everyone. Are we all here to see, Jordan Cores?”
Lys nods and speaks up, “Yes, and Triwt did inform us about his name preference. It’s a little bit weird, but we can do it if it’s what he wishes.”
I admit, I was almost a little bit annoyed that others were calling him Jordan now, but I have to let that emotion go for now as I’m here to see how he’s recovering, not to try and be an overprotective mother. I nod and walk over to the stasis regeneration tube as I look inside.
Part of me is glad that his arms and hands have already been fixed, but…
Not everything is going to be truly healed 100%.
I think to myself as I can see the formations of scars on his skin tissue. I noticed it the first time, but I don’t think he noticed it himself when he woke up after his first big injury. His wrists and knuckles are the most scarred, due to probably when he was punching that orange Alcoranth, but his wrists are from when he broke out of his restraints when we first found him.
Not the best memory to think back on… It hasn’t even been a full day yet. Oh, and where is Jordan going to sleep?
I then slowly bring myself to look at his face, which is almost finished healing. There’s a scar on his chin and a scar leading to under his right ear where the shot left his head. It’s not a major scar except for the entrance and exit wounds, but it’s still somewhat noticeable. If anything the white tissue of the scars make it stand out against his [tan] skin.
If only we had some higher grade Stasis Regeneration Tubes, maybe we could heal those scars as well… All we can do now is wait…
Jordan Cores, Human Male, Part-Time Security Worker
I take in a deep breath, gasping for air as I sit straight up in a cold sweat, holding onto my face and chest. My heart beats quickly and I sit there panting. I quickly check myself to make sure I’m not missing any body parts or anything.
“That is not an okay feeling!” I say aloud before shuddering.
It’s hard to describe how it feels to be in pain, everything slightly red in my vision, I was hearing my own heart thumping in my chest all the while I couldn’t hear out of my right ear, and then in the blink of an eye everything is fine, there’s no more pain just the sensation that something is missing while sitting on a bed of some sort surrounded by aliens.
Oh right the aliens.
OH RIGHT THE ALIENS
I turn my head and look around me, and while I’m a little panicked, I’m able to calm down as most of them are sitting further back or standing near the walls. The only ones closer to me are Lys, Cerelia, and I think the white snake lady is Triwt if I remember correctly.
“Um… good morning?” I ask nervously as I look around the room. “Is it even morning?”
“No, it’s technically the middle of the night, Jordan.” Cerelia says as she puts her paw on my head and rubs my hair like my parents used to when I was younger. “But, we all wanted to be sure you would be fine when waking up and it would be cruel to leave you alone when waking up. That, and these crewmembers wanted to express their thanks for protecting them. Though, hopefully next time it won’t be such a violent display.”
“S-Sorry, I wasn’t really thinking when that happened.”
“To be fair you were shot in the head. I think they were more scared that you seemingly came back to life.”
“Y-Yeah… Uh, if it’s okay, can I maybe say hi to them then?” I ask, peering around her shoulder to look at the other crew members. She nods and steps to the side as a line forms of aliens who want to speak to me.
I never expected to spend the next 20 minutes receiving thanks from complete strangers, aliens nonetheless, but it was still nice. I also apologized if I potentially scared them for what they saw me do.
Also aliens apparently hug. A lot.
That would probably explain why Cerelia was petting my head as well…
The last person I expected to approach me was Triwt.
She slithered up to me and offered me one of her four hands, which I accepted, gently shaking it before she pulled me into a hug like the last 13 people did. After a few seconds she lets me go.
“Jordan, since you will probably be with us for a while, could I potentially offer you a job while you are on this ship?”
“H-Huh? A job?”
Triwt, Female Valis-Trobat Hybrid, Security Commander
I try to stay focused on giving Jordan this job offer, but something is really distracting me, especially with our upcoming destination of Verglas.
Goddess, he is super warm…
And that is Chapter 10! I know it's probably a bit more on the boring side, but it's to try and set up our trip to Verglas (which is a thin coating of ice on a rock. Ice Rock. Ice Planet)! I really liked the suggestions of an ice planet so thats where we're heading. Major Cities and spaceports are built on natural heat signatures which cause a lot of natural hot springs (ooo fun!). Also for our theorizers, no, Pri'Darya will not be recurring, I just wanted to give him a name and their side of things in the aftermath.
Also it's time for Jordan to finally get a job! It hasn't been a full day and Triwt wants him on her team! This also means I can have an excuse for him to be around Lys and Cerelia more often. That being said, does Jordan get his own room, or does he have to bunkbed with somebody?

Oh where did it all go wrong? Me crew is dead, and my boy was brutally murdered.
In this void of sensation, I am only left with my thoughts. That stun baton has completely paralyzed me, and I know I’m being taken to a cryopod for holding, so I may as well dwell on my thoughts.
Was it taking the job where we messed up? No, I don’t think so. It was probably the bait. It worked too well. We caught too big of a Trorish.
I sigh internally as I can feel them lifting me up somewhere.
And we had such a good plan too. Well it wasn’t my plan, it was my boy’s plan. To send out a drone ship with a fake weapon system as a decoy so we can sneak up on them, it worked so well that they actually thought it was us.
I can feel them placing me down on a soft platform as a shadow seems to begin looming over me.
That Altrin girl could have gone for a pretty credit if we got her, but what the hells was that rifle she was using? I thought a fully automatic BYR was impossible due to the recoil and explosive payloads. But that white… whatever she was… She is completely terrifying. I thought she would just sell for a lot more since she kept her fur in good condition, so I thought she was just an assistant to that Altrin girl. Never in me life, would I expect a pretty girl like that to be so… terrifyingly deadly.
The air begins to turn cold.
Ah, I’m out of time to think… At least wherever I end up, I hope I don’t see that white furred girl again.
I sigh as we finish escorting the remaining crew to their quarters or work quarters, taking in consideration to take longer routes around the ship to avoid bodies that we haven’t had time to clean up yet. There were a few crewmembers we had to either escort back to their work areas or to communal areas due to bodies that we couldn’t avoid.
It’s going to be a long few days…
My attention is grabbed by my wrist data pad as I get a call from Triwt.
“Hey, Triwt, how are things going on your end?” I ask with a tiredness in my voice as I’ve been awake for roughly 13 or so hours now.
“Well, we’ve managed to move the majority of the bodies. Galactic Law doesn’t allow for spacing bodies.”
“It would be an easier clean up if we could.”
“Yes, but we still have to obey the law.”
We both sigh at the same time while I use my other hand to rub my face, trying to make my exhaustion go away with such a pointless attempt.
“Right, right…” I sigh again before continuing to speak, “Anyways, I’m setting up an autopilot course to take us to Verglas.”
“Verglas?”
“Yeah, sending you the information now.”
There’s a moment of silence from Triwt before she speaks, “You’re kidding me, right?”
“I wish I was.”
“An ice covered planet?
“Mhm.”
“Known to snow almost all the time?”
“Yes, but the cities and spaceport are built around a natural heat signature.”
“... You’re lucky I have a snow coat and that I have fur, but my fur isn’t really good at keeping out the cold.”
I hear her sigh on her end before I chime in.
“Wanna go meet up at Med Bay 07? Check in on Jordan?”
“Jordan? My my, Captain I didn’t know you were interested in him where you're already shortening his name.”
“It’s not like that! He said it was weird to hear everyone saying his ‘full name’ and prefers being called by his ‘first name’.” I huff in slight annoyance and embarrassment.
“Ah okay, does that mean we should all refer to him as Jordan then?”
“I believe so if that’s what he wishes.”
I mean I felt special when he wanted me to call him Jordan, but oh well.
“Okay, I’ll see you there, Cerelia.”
I slowly walk down the hall. It’s been quarantined due to the fact that there’s still blood and bullets on the walls and floor of the corridor. It seems that the trail of blood from Jordan has gone from red to more of a brownish black color.
I look up at a sign in the hallway that reads, “MEDICAL ROOM 07” which I smirk a little.
I always find it funny that despite it being a medical room, everyone calls it a Med Bay. I wonder where that name for it came from.
“Hey Triwt, I’m here-” I cut myself off as before me in the room is Triwt, Lys, and every crew member from the compromised safe room. Well all except for R’dorn.
I’m glad that prick isn’t here, but I wasn’t expecting everyone else to be here.
“Oh uh, hey everyone. Are we all here to see, Jordan Cores?”
Lys nods and speaks up, “Yes, and Triwt did inform us about his name preference. It’s a little bit weird, but we can do it if it’s what he wishes.”
I admit, I was almost a little bit annoyed that others were calling him Jordan now, but I have to let that emotion go for now as I’m here to see how he’s recovering, not to try and be an overprotective mother. I nod and walk over to the stasis regeneration tube as I look inside.
Part of me is glad that his arms and hands have already been fixed, but…
Not everything is going to be truly healed 100%.
I think to myself as I can see the formations of scars on his skin tissue. I noticed it the first time, but I don’t think he noticed it himself when he woke up after his first big injury. His wrists and knuckles are the most scarred, due to probably when he was punching that orange Alcoranth, but his wrists are from when he broke out of his restraints when we first found him.
Not the best memory to think back on… It hasn’t even been a full day yet. Oh, and where is Jordan going to sleep?
I then slowly bring myself to look at his face, which is almost finished healing. There’s a scar on his chin and a scar leading to under his right ear where the shot left his head. It’s not a major scar except for the entrance and exit wounds, but it’s still somewhat noticeable. If anything the white tissue of the scars make it stand out against his [tan] skin.
If only we had some higher grade Stasis Regeneration Tubes, maybe we could heal those scars as well… All we can do now is wait…
I take in a deep breath, gasping for air as I sit straight up in a cold sweat, holding onto my face and chest. My heart beats quickly and I sit there panting. I quickly check myself to make sure I’m not missing any body parts or anything.
“That is not an okay feeling!” I say aloud before shuddering.
It’s hard to describe how it feels to be in pain, everything slightly red in my vision, I was hearing my own heart thumping in my chest all the while I couldn’t hear out of my right ear, and then in the blink of an eye everything is fine, there’s no more pain just the sensation that something is missing while sitting on a bed of some sort surrounded by aliens.
Oh right the aliens.
OH RIGHT THE ALIENS
I turn my head and look around me, and while I’m a little panicked, I’m able to calm down as most of them are sitting further back or standing near the walls. The only ones closer to me are Lys, Cerelia, and I think the white snake lady is Triwt if I remember correctly.
“Um… good morning?” I ask nervously as I look around the room. “Is it even morning?”
“No, it’s technically the middle of the night, Jordan.” Cerelia says as she puts her paw on my head and rubs my hair like my parents used to when I was younger. “But, we all wanted to be sure you would be fine when waking up and it would be cruel to leave you alone when waking up. That, and these crewmembers wanted to express their thanks for protecting them. Though, hopefully next time it won’t be such a violent display.”
“S-Sorry, I wasn’t really thinking when that happened.”
“To be fair you were shot in the head. I think they were more scared that you seemingly came back to life.”
“Y-Yeah… Uh, if it’s okay, can I maybe say hi to them then?” I ask, peering around her shoulder to look at the other crew members. She nods and steps to the side as a line forms of aliens who want to speak to me.
I never expected to spend the next 20 minutes receiving thanks from complete strangers, aliens nonetheless, but it was still nice. I also apologized if I potentially scared them for what they saw me do.
Also aliens apparently hug. A lot.
That would probably explain why Cerelia was petting my head as well…
The last person I expected to approach me was Triwt.
She slithered up to me and offered me one of her four hands, which I accepted, gently shaking it before she pulled me into a hug like the last 13 people did. After a few seconds she lets me go.
“Jordan, since you will probably be with us for a while, could I potentially offer you a job while you are on this ship?”

2024.05.17 13:10 Theroadnottaken188 My boyfriend always blames me for the way I act
I just needed to get this off my chest as it has been bothering me a lot lately. Boyfriend ‘M24’ and I ‘F22’ have been living together for about 2 years now. We’ve had a lot of ups and downs. The first year I was working at a place very toxic to my mental health and he has held the same job for a while now. I used to come home really upset and lash out at him for a lot of things but I’ve improved a lot (albeit only recently) due to getting a new job and working on my mental health and being aware. I am his longest relationship and he is my first. He means a great deal to me and we get along super well when we are both in good moods and when there is nothing wrong. We agreed to work on our communication from both sides and I do see he makes effort from time to time and he does attempt to fix whatever issue I have right away. Yet, no matter what I try or do he will always find something that is “bothering him” with my behaviour and try to modify it by telling me it is bothering him. If i do not show the will to fix it as it may be a very minor issue or he says it in a joking manner he will get mad and say “Again you don’t listen to me/you never listen/why do you do “preceeds to say something that has happened that we fixed or that wasn’t a problem in the moment” and as much as I would like to make hin feel at ease or that I care about his feelings it’s like I am walking on eggshells. He also has had a pattern of blame shifting for a while now and now it has crossed the line over minor things… I opened a bottle of pickled beetroot wrong and he accidentally spilled it and as I said be was clumsy he said he made that minor mistake because I was the one who opened it wrong even though he saw it yesterday and were laughing about how I opened it weird (poked a little hole in the lid) Then he got angry and when I asked him why he said because of the way I act and my behaviour because i Got anxious earlier because we bickered over something small and instead of adressing that he blamed he was upset because pf my behaviour because I told him to fix his blame shifting. Am I being too harsh with him? Should I not have said anything? I told him I cannot help it if is going to keep finding faults within my acting everyday and I warned him that I did it before and it did not make me happy and he said that he will. Plainly. We almost came close to breaking up twice. What should I do and how can I make him feel better?

2024.05.17 13:08 Seekingpurposelol Will I ever love again?
It’s been a few months since we’ve broken up and I’m going to the process of dating again and I hate it so much. I can’t find a connection with anyone I’ve dated…… I’ve gone on multiple dates with multiple different girls since my last relationship and it always just ends up with us having meaningless sex and me staring at the ceiling afterwards just wondering when, if ever I’ll stop thinking of her. I truly don’t know if I’ll ever stop feeling so alone. I hate to admit it but I’m a good looking guy(trust me it wasn’t always like this, grew up fat but then I started working out and got into shape but still kept the funny from growing up insecure) so dating around has never been an issue for me ….. it seems like dating is only making me feel worst than I already do but isn’t that what you’re supposed to do after a break up? Make new connections and focus on yourself? Why isn’t any of this making me feel better??? I just don’t get it. Will I ever be able to connect with anyone ever again? Even though I initiated the conversation of breaking up, it was very mutual, it just took someone to finally say it. We were together for a few years and it wasn’t always happy and dandy but we loved each other at the end of each day. We broke up for a few reasons but one of them was because of a condition she had that made it very hard for us to be intimate. I just can’t seem to shake the feeling that if she never got that condition that we wouldn’t have broken up. I’m not looking for anyone to tell me if I’m right or wrong…. I’m just here to vent and maybe get some real advice. I don’t know how to maneuver around this mentally. I’ve cried and cried some more and nothing seems to make me feel better. I just miss her and what we had with my whole being. I feel so stupid for letting her go. She was an amazing person inside and out who probably won’t be alone for a long time(good women never are) but without her it feels like I’ll be alone forever.

2024.05.17 13:06 ummolay Why do guys feel the need to start doing boyfriend things with you then MONTHS down the line say they don’t want a relationship?
I stopped talking to a guy a few months ago I was ‘taking things slow’ with. When I met him he told me he wanted a relationship in the short future and I believed him and agreed on working towards things slowly. He asked me to travel across the country to go see him so I did, not for him but because I genuinely wanted to go and the area seemed interesting, I still don’t regret going. The entire time he called me beautiful and pet names like ‘baby’ etc.
When I came home I told him I missed him and he THEN told me that I was moving too fast for him and he doesn’t want to hurt my feelings because he isn’t ready for relationship and that he actually just wants to be friends. I was a bit surprised and confused but I agreed to be friends but on the terms that we DON’T have sexual relations. When I said this he went absolutely nuts on me and stopped talking to me shortly after.
I moved on and not too long back he began stalking my social media by liking all my selfies and watching my stories after 2 months of silence.
Now I’m on the other side I’ve realised this guy basically lied to me to get what he wanted from me and go. I don’t feel used but I’m quite shocked how people can feel little shame or remorse for lying and gaslighting others. Isn’t it exhausting wasting not only your OWN but someone else’s time by keeping false promises that’s only inevitably going to back fire
Has anybody else been anything like this? Hearing your story would really help me

2024.05.17 13:04 Afraid_Alternative35 What self-limiting narratives have you overcome?
Neurodivergents & neurotypicals alike both suffer from self-limiting narratives.
The power of belief is strong -- If we believe we can't do something, that will often be the deciding factor on whether that thing is done. We are the stories we tell ourselves.
For neurodivergent people, these challenges are tenfold, as there are significantly greater, all too real, challenges that we have to fight through, and these can reinforce the self-limiting beliefs we hold. Especially in the age of social media, where self-limiting beliefs of others are all too often stated as unquestionable fact, and thus, can become more easily engrained.
It was one of the few benefits of growing up before the larger awareness of ADHD & Autism. Don't get me wrong, the downsides were tremendous, but not having a million voices whispering in my ear that I couldn't do something helped to ingrain a mindset of perceived limits as obstacles to overcome. That my symptoms could be improved. That I could learn social skills, time management & how to organise things, even if the barriers were higher for me than others.
I didn't start that way, however. Even without social media constantly reinforcing my self-doubt, I still had overcome a great many barriers. And the first opponent I needed to beat was the jailer inside my brain. That voice telling me that I couldn't do things because I was autistic. That things were hopeless.
It was a long, hard-fought battle.
With every victory, however, that voice inside me grew a little quieter. As I made friends, performed in plays & films, told stories, had sex, developed meaningful relationships, both romantic & platonic. As my empathy grew, and my ability to read & understand people blossomed beyond even a lot of neurotypicals, the voice in my head that told me I was beyond these things slowly sewed its mouth shut.
Was it easy? Fuck no, I'm racked with trauma that I'm still sorting out. I hope that, as we continue to progress a society, we can continue to create pathways that allow neurodivergent people to grow & thrive without the constant fear & imposter syndrome that I had to endure to become the person I am now. Don't get me wrong, I love who I am now, but I had to endure a lot to get there. A lot that could have been mitigated with the right support. That's not to say that I had zero support, but so often, the "comfort" people would provide would often come in the form of a well-meaning, but damaging: "Have you thought about giving up?"
I do truly believe it is beneficial for us neurodivergent folks to challenge ourselves, and to push the limits of what we believe to be possible. And we should be encouraged to challenge ourselves. Support needs to be that right blend. Not enabling the defeatist attitudes that will ultimately sabotage us, but not being abusive in how hard we're pushed either.
Neither approach will result in a desirable outcome, and it is only by gently, but firmly pushing someone's challenge line, that we can see real progress.
I had to self-motivate for most of my life, and it was exhausting. Rewarding, ultimately, but tiring.
I hope in the future, we can strike that balance & give future neurodivergents the structure they need to push themselves in healthy ways, and go beyond what they ever thought they were capable of.
So, what self-limiting beliefs have you overcome? What narratives did you used to believe? Or others used to tell you, that you were ultimately able to overcome?
Do you feel that you overcame these limits in a healthy way? Or were you forced to wade through the muck to get the other side?
I'm seriously curious because I do think that, at least sometimes, we've gotta give our potential to evolve & grow more credit while also acknowledging the great challenges that come with having brains wired like ours.

2024.05.17 13:03 VERONICAMARK44 Confusing feelings
I (26M) met this girl (24F) on hinge and things took off quite quickly and intense, we stayed up late to talk for days straight, we talked about everything passionately. She thought i was funny and charming, i thought she was interesting and genuine. She was always busy with work but still made time to reply and stay, i was the same way. The chemistry was unmatched, the sex talk and flirting overwhelmed me constantly in a good way. Everything really seemed better when I think about her, my work was less dull and things I hated suddenly seemed okay. She emphasized her interest in me plenty of times.
But i had to move for work temporarily and we couldn’t set up a date before i left so we were just texting and she even suggested she’d meet me half way, it was no big deal to her. She seemed quite serious about it too, not just a joke. And she kept saying how she liked me a lot and she could feel the feeling was mutual. I agreed.
But as long as i stepped up and tried to arrange a date, i wasn’t asking her to date me, just a casual meet up to see each other. It turned into an argument and then she told me she’s not that into me, and that I’m in this way deeper than she is, and that she’s not ready for a relationship. I mean we joked about dating and nasty stuffs we’d do to each other but i never emphasized that i was serious, just casual texting and flirting, like she was. Her attitude was completely different since i mention the date. Still tried to reply to me, but the way she talked was less flirty and passionate. She said her job is draining and she had family and friends to hang with and stuffs that but she tried her best to respond.
After that night we agreed to be friends for a while. I asked her why the feelings changed she said she thought there’d be romantic feelings towards me, but i didn’t happen, she just saw me as a friend now. I asked why still keep me as friend and make effort to text me everyday then, she said I’m too an interesting person to just let go and that’s just who she is when it comes to treating a friend.
I don’t get it, things were sexually heated before, we talked about things like exes, relationships downturns and deep shit in the past and really bonded. I even said i was with some chicks and she said she wasnt worried cause she knew the feeling is mutual, “i have confidence between us”. Now she “doesn’t feel romantic feelings” for me.
It was all within two weeks. I ended it, told her how i felt and let go. But i never felt this way before, even stronger than my last most serious relationship, struck by lightning type of feeling. She put LTR on her OLD profile and then said turnt out she wasn’t ready for a relationship, but before i brought up the date discussion, i swear she was acting like a gf, the lovey dovey language and names calling and the way she was so excited and reactive about anything i said.
Can someone help me make sense of this? Did i move too fast too intensely and freaked her out? Or is she just exhausted with work and life and can’t handle another relationship? Commitment issues?
TLDR: Met a girl on Hinge, had a thunderstruck type of feeling about her. Feeling was mutual until i mentioned a date. Her attitude changed and said she doesn’t feel a romantic feeling with me, wanna be friends instead. Did i freak her out or she has commitment issue?

I considered him a funny vampire, his relationship with that 3,000 year old vampire (whose name I just forgot) was funny even though it didn't last long.
Everybody was sucking Bill's blood and it was frustrating not to see him get any space, and Jessica even hissed at him.
It was iconic though when the ceiling was opened, Sara was on the top, and he said "I LOVE YOU"
Sara smiled, and then he said
"JASON!"
and burned 😂

2024.05.17 12:55 ThrowRA_1416 How did things go so horribly wrong with my (M44) brother (M42) and his wife?
This is my very first post here so apologies in advance for anything that I'm doing wrong.
I've been married for 9 years. My wife (40) is stunning, intelligent and everything that I (or anyone) could ever ask for. My parents were very happy when I introduced her to them, as was my brother. I had almost given up on marriage for various reasons but having this woman fall in love with me was better than my wildest dreams! My brother is a couple of years younger than I and was married before I met my wife.
When I introduced my wife(then girlfriend) to my brother and sister-in-law, she was very cold. She made no effort to try to get to know my wife and didn't even attend our wedding. She flew down to our hometown a month before our wedding but was adamant about not attending the wedding. She later told my mother that it was because she hadn't been consulted for any of the wedding preparations!
8 years down the line things have only become worse with my brother.
My father passed away a few years ago and my sister-in-law was a complete nightmare. In what was already a very difficult time for a family, she created a scene saying that she was "ignored" , that everyone likes my wife more because she's prettier, and even went so far to allege that my brother and my wife were having an affair. My brother was understandably furious at her while my wife has always maintained a dignified silence and doesn't believe in retorts. She is bewildered and extremely upset at the way that thing have turned out and if you ask me I still don't know what exactly has gone wrong. My wife has never even had a conversation with my sister-in-law and feels very upset about the fact that our daughter has never got to meet or interact with her cousins.
My brother appears to have a miserable married life, walks on eggshells around her and from what little I have seen of his kids, they are not doing too well either.
SIL calls my mother from time to time and complains about my wife, saying that everyone can't get enough of her, and how she(SIL) is the victim. She says the nastiest things, conjures up scenarios in her head and then decides that they are facts. I will definitely get hauled over the coals for saying this but SIL is obese and not a great looker.
A couple of years ago, my wife told me to speak to my brother and ask him what the problem really is. She said if needed she is ready to apologize to SIL for anything that might have offended her, for the simple fact that all of us should get a long for the sake of the children. My brother kept asking for "more time", as he put it and at the end of it said, his wife doesn't want any communication with us.
My brother on his past attempted a few feeble phone calls over the years which have now completely stopped. He now says he and the kids will only speak to us if SHE is spoken to first, and we try to get on her good side. The entitlement and arrogance is mind boggling!
Holidays are now spent in isolation and there is hardly any relationship between my brother and I.
Does anyone have any advice on how to make things better? I am clueless about what to do and I really don't know where and how things have gone so horribly wrong

2024.05.17 12:53 RileyRoo22 an add-on to my bio I think idk
I have no idea where to start let’s just try
I’ve always admired the femboy/trap lifestyle and the community’s a big part for me when got Facebook and I was allowed on it by my parents I’ve been a low-key part of a lot of the epic Memes and funny gay shit that’s come of it and I love it
I’m not a contributor, but I grew up enjoying it and when I turned 17, I officially started doing something and to be honest, I haven’t looked back but my process was growing out my hair I just didn’t feel comfortable and when I had my Facebook account hacked and I lost it, I kind of recoiled and became even more shy from doing a lot of stuff i did
I ended up moving house and focusing on a relationship and my job which took a good 6 years and when I finally came back, a lot of stuff has changed which is understandable…
but it so hard to find where I left off and I would like to find the traditional femboys my age that I grew up admiring so I can feel like I’m not old I’m not out of place and I can move forward with my own kind I’m moving to America soon and a lot of this stuff happens there so Id really like to have irl friends one day
I’m going to try and just start posting what I used to do again so if you’re reading this and you’re 26 and can relate to this somehow be cool hear from you
I know I’m talking to myself right now, but I’m too shy to post this anywhere else so I guess here is better than no where
Reddits scary for me but I’m not trying to be anonymous. I’m just trying to be honest…

2024.05.17 12:41 Impressive-Wash8435 Any other entertaining mostly self contained comics like King Shark, Sandman?
I’ve just got into the DC comics literally starting from scratch with a DC Infinite subscription.
I loved King Shark series it was funny, short, and not at all convoluted.
I also started reading Alan Moore’s Swamp Thing run which is AMAZING.
I have read some of the Rebirth one shot issues to introduce the characters
Dc Universe Rebirth
Aquaman
Wonder Woman
Batman
Nightwing
Superman
Deathstroke
Suicide Squad
And a lot of them particularly Superman seemed really convoluted with people coming through time and different dimensions it was a bit much for me. I am a simple individual and I just want to read stories that are more focussed on the character.
I did enjoy Suicide Squad rebirth and Wonder Woman maybe promising.
I’m also reading Sandman which is its own thing and I really enjoy.
I’m just wondering if the main line comics simply aren’t for me or if I need to give them more of a chance? It feels like the stories are being over complicated for the sake of it. When for me I’d be happy with just super hero faces different threat every issue 😝

2024.05.17 12:41 Turbulent_Action3539 Together, We Stand Strong
Hey everyone,
I want to share a bit of my journey with you, and why I believe we're on the right track. I'm someone who hasn't had an easy life. I've had to work extremely hard to get where I am today. And now, we find ourselves in a challenging situation, waiting for the GME share price to hopefully increase.
In the past few days, like many of you, I've been torn between selling, holding, or buying more shares. But today, I've made my decision, and I want to share it with you.
I'm not worried. In fact, for some funny reason, I feel excited. This excitement comes from knowing that we are all in this together. We might not have all the information, but one thing is clear: today doesn't mean it's over.
I stand with you all. There were moments when I considered backing out. But seeing the incredible support we have for each other, I realized that this is more than just about money. It's about solidarity and fighting for a common cause. It's about standing up against the hedge funds and shorts who have been manipulating the market for too long.
I want to apologize for any confusion I may have caused earlier days by suggesting to sell. I was uncertain, but now I am fully locked in. We are making a statement, and our unity is our strength. Let's keep pushing forward, supporting each other every step of the way. This is our battle to win, and we will not back down.
Together, we are unstoppable. Hold the line!

2024.05.17 12:38 bueno1991 Scared of social media
Why I’m afraid of posting or tweeting in front of my friends and followers ? Been like this for a very long time, I debated many times to delete friends off all social media, like I did with facebook but then I made new friends and its happened again on IG and Twitter, but I’m scared even tho we don’t speak anymore.
I’m scared to be myself online, I had to perfect everything like grammar, scared to tweet too much, I had to find perfect retweet posts in the order, like as if i am perfectionist, for them to enjoy so they would think I’m cool and funny but I can’t even hold conversations and poor vocabulary because people never asks about myself or talk about anything first, I always do everything for them like be their therapist and would drop everything for them because i thought that’s what friends are for, but they never invite me for anything so I cut off many friends but I have few friends left that admitted that we aren’t close or friends, but still staying in touch anyways since they haven’t done anything wrong to me and was nice to me but still I know nothing about them because they don’t like to talk about it, but they knew everything about me. I made a biggest mistake of being vulnerable in front of them once like crying, and they listened to me this day like getting alll tea but then they was disappeared for days saying they are going on a trip and will get back to me but never did, they came back and then working, it it turned into two years, because they was busy working or going on trips, so I stopped bringing it up.
Im scared if I delete all of them off social media and I see them in person again…

2024.05.17 12:38 Kunal_Sen 40 Years of Sharaabi
 | After Amitabh Bachchan’s near fatal accident and before his ill-fated stint in politics and between the big blockbusters Coolie (1983) and Mard (1985) made by Manmohan Desai, his arch rival, there is also the Prakash Mehra hit Sharaabi, another Bachchan starrer. Indeed, even by Mehra’s own standards, set by the super blockbuster Muqaddar Ka Sikandar, blockbuster Namak Halaal, and super hits Zanjeer, Hera Pheri and Laawaris, Sharaabi seems lesser but it was made with remarkable difficulties and remains his last success as a filmmaker. This post is an ode to the product and the pain in its production. submitted by Kunal_Sen to bollywood [link] [comments] The Poster THE STORY The origins story of Sharaabi has three versions and the truth lies somewhere in between. The first and best known one is that the film is a version of the English film Arthur. The second account comes straight from the horse’s mouth and suggests the idea was born in, if not out of, thin air. “We were on the World Tour of 1983, the very first of its kind for the Industry and having performed in almost 10 cities in US and London, flying to Trinidad & Tobago from NYC, when Prakash Mehra also travelling with me, suggests we should do a film based on a father son relationship where the son is an alcoholic.” - Amitabh Bachchan Lastly, the story goes that while shooting in the outdoors for Laawaris, Mehra made friends with the hotel owner who fascinated him as a functioning alcoholic who ran a successful business as well. Mehra’s arch-rival Desai alluded that the friendship was likely based on kinship. “Only a Sharaabi can make a film called Sharaabi,” Desai said in the press back then. Mehra’s reply can’t be reprinted. But his films always had autobiographical elements. The music director Anand ji said that like his films’ orphaned or neglected heroes, Mehra too faced abandonment issues because when he was young, his father had become a sadhu. THE HERO “… blew my hand off with a Diwali bomb .. took me 2 months to move my thumb to my index finger.” - Amitabh Bachchan Still recovering from the grievous injury on the sets of Coolie in the July of ’82, which forced Bachchan first to wear special belts around his stomach to basically prevent his guts from spilling out and then long shirts and coats to hide the scars, an accident involving a spurious Anaar on Diwali day of 1983 meant that Bachchan lost most of his skin, webbing and use of fingers on his left hand (and Bachchan is left-handed). But he worked through immense pain and improvised by hiding his injured hand in pockets, creating the iconic look from the film, though in one song, the blood and bandage is woven into the narrative. Hiding Pain THE HEROINE This was the time when there was a heroine crisis in Amitabh Bachchan’s screen life. Hema Malini had started a family and cut down on work. Parveen Babi was unwell. Jaya Bachchan had retired. Reportedly, Raj Babbar made it difficult for Smita Patil to be available for Bachchan’s projects. There were doubts over Shabana Azmi’s commercial potential. And Mehra had had date problems with Rakhee in the past. While Zeenat Aman had worked with the duo in Laawaris, Sharaabi’s role of a Hindustani dancer was different. In stepped Jaya Prada. THE SCRIPT Bachchan’s idea and insistence to speak the lines in a drawl-like fashion of a drunkard and Mehra’s concern about pacing brought about the brilliant joint decision to keep the lines sharp and short so that Bachchan could draw them out. The fact that his character Vicky in the film was also a budding poet seeking vazan in his spoken creations that he would only find later, like an older-day Janardan Jordan (of Rockstar fame), meant that there also had to a graph along with the meter. Kader Khan memorably put pen to paper. THE SONGS Kishore Kumar was Bachchan’s voice in Mehra’s films. But when Sharaabi went on floors, a cold war was brewing. Some time ago, Kishore had expected Bachchan to agree to a cameo in a film called Mamta Ki Chhaon Mein but influenced by Desai, who had a long-running feud with Kishore over monetary issues and artistic differences despite their collaborative success, Bachchan declined. Kishore announced he wouldn’t sing for Bachchan again, leaving Sharaabi’s pre-production in crisis. It was Bappi Lahiri, Kishore’s nephew and Mehra’s Namak Halaal music director, who brought the icons together for Sharaabi. The truce wouldn’t last long though. Kishore got upset that Bachchan got playback credit before him for singing the rap section (“There was a cat…” ) in his “Jahaan Chaar Yaar” unlike their jugalbandi in “My Name in Anthony Gonsalves” in Desai’s Amar Akbar Anthony where Bachchan had dubbed the English-speaking portions. Kishore’s work in Sharaabi was historic enough to earn him all the nominations at that year’s Filmfare Awards for Best Playback Singer (Male), a record number. Kishore would win for “Manzilein Apni Jagah Hain”. Unlike Namak Halaal’s Pag Ghunghroo, he even performed the classical alaap himself before the Log Kehte Hain Main Sharaabi Hoon section of the Salaame-E-Ishq Meri Jaan-like song “Mujhe Naulakha Mangwa De Re”. RJ Rahoul has a great take on the making of Intehaa Ho Gayi in which it’s impossible to detect when Bachchan’s dialogues end and Kishore’s singing starts. Despite their differences off screen, they were that close on it. ... Sharaabi would win its year's Filmfares only in the Music Category but time has also marked Vicky Kapoor as one of Amitabh Bachchan's iconic roles and perhaps his greatest performance in the 1980s. |

TWINFLAMES #AWAKENING #KUNDALINI
Twin Flame Kundalini Activation: Signs of Kundalini AwakeningSpiritual Awakening can be a gentle process or sometimes it can be brought on intensely. More and more people are experiencing this awakening as we proceed through the cosmic energy that is literally activating our light bodies and our DNA. It can be a very confusing and even fear-filled process when we don’t understand what is happening. We are propelled into places both within and external that we have never before experienced. Many people have thought themselves going crazy or losing hold of reality and in a way that is true. This energy allows us to see the truth of the nature of our existence in human form. Veils are lifted and illumination takes place. They call this ‘Enlightenment”
Our kundalini energy lies dormant at the base of our spine, a slumbering snake in eternal sleep. It is said that our DNA was genetically altered at the time of our creation so that we would remain unaware of our own power as creators and to keep us imprisoned in this 3D construct. There is some in depth information on this and I will leave a link at the end for you to explore further. I just wanted to present a few of the signs and symptoms that indicate your kundalini has been activated.
In regards to twin flames, a part of the purpose of union is to activate the kundalini energy in each other for full union and expression of the third Divine energy the union creates. This activation is key as many of the twins have one twin at a slightly accelerated rate of vibration than the other. I believe this is why there is the separation phase once they find each other. They both need to readjust and assimilate this new energy activation and come to a place of balance and awareness individually. This activation forces them to do all the necessary shedding, clearing and healing of anything that no longer serves their shared purpose. Understanding what you are going through can make the journey a little less confusing and uncomfortable.
It helps to know that all the crazy things you are going through are actually Divinely intended at this time and will bring you into alignment for your ascension.
Some symptoms in no particular order:
Seeing/Feeling Energy: seeing orbs of light within peripheral vision…prickly or tingling sensations…a pulsing, tremor or vibrating sensation, tracers, after images among objects or people…unexplained warmth in the hands or feet…seeing colors of frequency. Emotional Upheaval: You will experience the extreme polarity of emotions moving from euphoria to depression as if your emotions are completely out of your control. This is the result of your hormones changing through your endocrine system. Identity Crisis: An isolation builds where you can no longer understand yourself, who you are, what is your path or reality itself. It is the essence of dissociation. There becomes a deep fear that you cannot deal with material reality as everyone around you is still in illusion. This is where the ego starts losing it’s bearings over your consciousness. The Urge to Create: You want to explore things creatively, cooking, music, art, poetry, writing etc. One instance of awakening is you are becoming more in tune with your subconscious and releasing the mind into the imagination. We create our reality with the power of our thoughts. This is the Universe giving us a sign to start creating literally and figuratively.
Increase in Psychic Abilities: When we awaken our senses, they not only become sharper but your intuition is guiding you more than you ever thought possible. You start to listen to your gut instinct…synchronicity and patterns become too strong to ignore…you start predicting events before they happen…knowing things before you you even knew them…precognitive dreaming.
In Tune with Celestial Events: When our consciousness changes we become more in tune with frequency and in turn the frequency of the earth. When we are aware we start to notice the subtle patterns especially during the moon phases and astrological alignments. Since everything is connected through the ripple effect, we are effected in magnitude during these events. Past Life Memories: Our long term memory is returning. These are deep suppressed memories within our soul blueprint and encoded in our DNA. We are seeing glimpses of who we were within various lifetimes. Past life memories for some occur in flashbacks, visions, daydreams or glimpse into the past. It is a memory so vivid and real that it brings confusion because you know it is not from this current time line.
Flashes into Other Realities: The feeling as if you are living in multiple realities at once or parallel lives. Time is more fluid as past, present and future merge as one. You will feel as if straddled between worlds or moving into different realities all together. It activates a very disoriented feeling of not being grounded because you are opening yourself to different timelines of perceived reality.
Seeing a Person’s True Form: It is like the concept of the mirror into seeing other’s reflections of their past lives through their own energy aura. As we become stronger, sometimes we can see loved ones or even strangers with a superimposed face enabling something from their past life or parallel life to come through to us. Anxiety/Panic Attacks: The flow of energy can be overwhelming as the ego loses it’s grip. This can cause your brain to move faster than the body enabling a concept called ‘black hole’ thinking. (please check out that link, it is important) Your perception is changing and with that comes a desire to fall into a cycle of past and future thinking enabling fear and loss.
No Low Vibes: There is an innate desire to surround yourself with ‘like minded’ people and healthy relationships. You simply cannot tolerate lower vibration environments, duality behavior or toxic unhealthy relationships any longer.Your body is longing to move away from the 3D dualistic concepts completely. You come into alignment with the higher energies of the new paradigm.
Rapid Synchronicity: Synchronicity begins increasing rapid;ly, certain number sequences begin to haunt you…11:11, 1212, 111, 333, 444, 555, 666, 777. You begin to experience increased deja-vu, dreams taking form or certain archetypal symbols appear in your life. The symbols work in a way that is similar to Jungian psychology. The symbols help awaken us.
Clarity of Communication: You feel more in tune listening to the silence. You are not going crazy, but you feel a desire to speak with this ‘inner voice’ or listen to the silence. Many experience meeting their spirit guides or having angelic communication this way. Channeling becomes innate and natural to us as we open ourselves up to being connected to the higher spiritual realms.
Time Dilation: The concept of how we view time changes completely. WE are operating from a a unified sense of past-present-future perception. The time is now. Your consciousness is striving for a present mindset. Time doesn’t feel like it has a structure anymore, it is very fluid. Left-brain Short Circuit: Consciousness is going through a rewiring of sorts, so everything our right hemisphere operates on will be heightened. This means our empathy, our spatial memory, psychic abilities and our ability to experience through vision will be magnified. Whereas the left hemisphere will tune down. Brain fog, memory lapses and no focus will be prevalent.
Feeling Disconnected: Your consciousness is wanting you to look within for answers. As your frequency shifts, your interests and relationships will change, you attract what you are. Old friendships and relationships will fall away for more soulful aligned relationships. We are releasing our karmic bonds from our soul family. Sometimes we must let go in order to grow and evolve. Looking Within: This could be a desire from out of the blue to mediate, talking to yourself or being more introspective with your thoughts rather than voicing your opinion all the time, hermit mode. You basically become more telepathic and in tune with your thought perceptions of the world around you. You are becoming an observer of your thoughts and feelings, a watcher between worlds.
Moments of Elation: Once you awaken you feel more at peace with yourself and your reality. This creates moments of bliss and euphoria. You are able to see beyond the illusions of separation and knowing that you are never alone. We are all connected and guided by the Universe within.
