Around the start of middle school or a little earlier I saw a counselor at one of my summer camps and just looked at his eyes. I was incredibly confused and intimidated by the feeling of attraction and questioned why the hell I was feeling this unique emotion towards men. At the time I understood myself to be a guy (definitely not anymore lol but I’m not willing to do the argument over how “gender” is created) and it took me a WHILE to figure out… fuck… that was attraction. Does anyone else feel that theyre attracted to one gender in a very different way from another? That was a source of tension for me when I was figuring out my sexuality.

yeah you would know, glizzyguzzler

can you define daddy issues in any concrete way? this is not an official term at all so I’d be cautious seeking opinions on it online. I feel for you regardless and I struggle with some of these traits, though I don’t think theyre simplistic enough to be ascribed to a relationship with a particular parent or similar

I love the look of the beaches in Australia, hope I get to go soon! nice pictures!!

Answer: I understand your pain, but also no one on Lemmy is qualified to help you in any way. Get off the internet. When using Lemmy is not serving you, dont come back to Lemmy expecting it to suddenly serve you.

MEEOOWWW!!!

Look into the concept of codependency. One should never be in a relationship DESPITE their wellbeing.

Frankly, having dealt with situations like this before, this level of attachment should be walked away from or cut off. Amelia seemingly needs to get over this and I don’t even know that theres a charitable solution to this where everyone wins. I’ve always governed myself with the philosophy that I should look after myself. This can superficially sound selfish but it’s because I can’t take care of other if I’m not nearing my best. If Amelia is this dependent on Ana, for both of their sakes, I think the tie should be severed or minimized. This sounds cruel, I understand. How does Ana feel? Does she feel burdened by this? If so, it sounds like we have our answer.

Both of them are fucking insane. To devote this much energy to weirdos on the internet is deranged. They both need to devote their energy to better things, as evidenced by the fact that I had to press “show context” on their comment thread so many times I lost patience. I thought everyone on Lemmy was better than this. I dont care what the original cause of the disagreement was at this rate because EVERY step of the way, one of them couldve turned on do not disturb or gone to an alt account or SOMETHING. If either of you are seeing this, you can do better. Flying Squid specifically? Threatening suicide is the number one way to look immature (of every kind), especially over a stranger on the internet. Do. Better.

Edit: If someone could give a kind description of what the drama was even all about, I’d appreciate it. I can’t bear to dig through either of their histories.

tell me, are your human rights personally challenged by the trump administration? mine are, and I would like to maintain what rights I have now

Can you elaborate on what specifically bothered you? I didn’t notice anything when I read it but it was a good while ago

I’m sure you’ve read or heard this before, but project hail mary is great. The whole bobiverse series was incredibly satisfying to read and the 5th book is out recently in the form of an audio book. Low pressure, low commitment series thats just full of engineering porn.

how do I get this asking for a friend

I’d encourage you to not go down this rabbit hole

I had a dream somewhat recently, maybe 8 months ago where I was a woman and was living by myself mostly independent and completely happy with it. I felt so much hope for my future and thats often not something I experience. That carried me through the rest of the day, visualizing myself as a woman being able to live mostly by myself and content with it.

absolutely, this studio is still located in ukraine largely and the game is great, REALLY consider if you need to pirate this

also it is quite unoptimized so if you’d like to pirate for the sake of testing if it runs on your PC go for it but REALLY REALLY REALLY those dudes deserve the money

I’ve heard that as well as restarted
