I would really like to know

Are there things that you have always wanted to experience but would not allow yourself to ? It doesnt have to be sexually related, but in most cases hidden desires deal with sexuality. I think those conversations can be very healing cause most of us live life within the walls of some fake… (edited) read more

Why do men as soon as they are matched try to know the sexual aspect of someone? Whatever happened to getting to know the person? Are all men like this or just the ones who are on dating apps? How can you ask all this to someone you don't even know? It is so so common that I feel i am weird one

Suddenly get sad over nothing... Idk how to face this feeling when I barely know the reason why I feel this way 🥲

Authenticity

If being authentic means being disliked , so be it … I have had enough

Question

Do people change or do they simply learn how to hide certain parts of themselves?

Share your thoughts

Maybe you can come up with a new perspective

Sometimes we're drawn not to a person, but to the emotions they evoke. "Butterflies" aren't always love. Sometimes it's anxiety, uncertainty, and the fear of loss. A healthy relationship is one of calm. And for some reason, this is precisely what we're often not used to.

Thoughts?

🔥 What action can instantly make you lose interest in someone?

It's hardest to deal with the trauma that was caused by your closest blood relative.

I just now realized that meeting my new older female friend healed the part of me that was suffering because of the logical dissonance of my abuser being supposedly the most important person in one's life (m-o-t-h-e-r). I now see her as the cause of my trauma, but not as a close person - it's kind… read more

Communication

I tend to look at communication as something that can be very complex and tricky. You could state one thing and someone interprets the message completely different than what your intent was. I feel like that could lead to a lot of hurt feelings, defensiveness, and hostility. Even clarifying… read more

Distance doesn't ruin relationships; doubts and lack of communication do.

Half Alive

They say we only have one life. But what kind of life is it when we spend it trying to repair everything within us that has been broken?

Like seeing a coakroach would literally ruin my whole day , its scary , disghusting and you cant know its next move .. but the other day i was thinking : why? Like why we usually dont fear cats or dogs but we fear insects which are way smaller

I’ve noticed that if a conversation starts out super energetic it often quickly loses its spark on both sides Does that happen to you too?

What part of yourself are you learning to stop fixing? 🪷
