You can evaluate for yourself what category you fall mostly in, are you the one who feels challenged when being alone, or with other people, and let that guide you regarding what situation to seek out for growth. So personally I find it easy to be alone. I am able to get sufficient stimulation from other activities than irl socializing. I don’t have much fomo at all, because I don’t create/crave much of an identity around being someone who “has a life” (in conventional sense) - this could be aspect of why you feel “left out “ (or I am completely wrong here) You may try to identify what are the blocks and neurosises inside you that are obstacles in your journey (could be for example internalized peer pressure like you mention) and does it help you to be alone to overcome them, or does it help you to socialize to overcome them. Or it can be both in different situations . So then you actively seek out the kind of situation (in this case socializing or being alone) that gets you in the direction you wanna develop in So you can see alone time and socializing as an opportunity for growth, and use accordingly . If you’re into that kinda approach to life . But also don’t obsess neurotically about it, if you miss either (socializing in your case or alone time) then understand sometimes life circumstances happen and we are put in sub optimal situations. Take this moment as it is and see what can you do from this moment, rather than stressing about what could’ve been….

I stand by it it’s just i feel it rather sounds like something a mom would say

🤣

You’re good too thanks and yes I’d agree

😆Jung would be proud

I could answer but maybe it’s sensitive topic for him so ill let him answer

Omg that’s so cute to me that you put in this effort to figure this out 🥺😭 I have been wanting to try healthier desserts, I wanna try this sometime

I think humans first and foremost seek well being. It just happens to be that living a lie can hurt so it can make it seem they’re seeking truth. If you found out enlightenment would cause you hell, would you still pursue it? I think a big factor in the motivation of this pursuit of “truth” is because you think it’s gonna make you happier. Nothing wrong with that. Maybe it happens to be that truth does make you happier (if enlightenment is like som say). In a way that’s good news for us because then we can fulfill that need for well being while at the same time feeling like we’re pursuing the highest thing

Yea I guessed that I just got a funny thought 😆

Congrats 😊 There’s lot of opportunity for growth and development in relationship, that can increase stability, communication and long term happiness. It’s nice when both people are open to try to improve.

That water bill 😭

That’s great! I sometimes bring my arms over my head and back to release some tension in my upper body and it helps to a certain degree so I can see how that video can help. My neck/spine issue is related to compression of the spine. So the number one thing that has helped me the most is lifting my head straight up with my arms and holding for a long time (it decompresses the spine).

I dont think people intrinsically value Christmas in itself, its real meaning, unless they’re genuinely religious. Plenty celebrate, enjoy and value Christmas for the events that are used to celebrate it, in particular the gathering of families. It may come with emotional attachments, nostalgia, comfort etc But those things you could do any day, so I’m similar to you, im indifferent to Christmas in and of itself, I mostly just like being on holiday (meaning not having to work/study) during that time.

It can be held as ideal, but it’s important to be honest with yourself when you do judge, believe/disbelieve something or even hold it as true/not true. If you are presented with any kind of statement, you might notice that for many things you will lean in one direction or the other in terms of if you believe it or not. It’s like how it’s rare you’re truly neutral about something, for most things you’ll have a preference, even if it’s subtle, for it or not. You can adopt a kind of meta view that anything you experience is still happening within your limited perspective, so it might not be absolute. It still doesn’t disprove things like “trans fat is unhealthy” in this “relative” reality but it can create some form of detachment to your views because you recognize for example that a lot has to do with definitions …

I am also like this. When my body feels stiff, it distracts me mentally, makes me less present and attentive to what’s going on outside me, makes it harder for me to sit still to study and focus. I have problems with my spine, so I am extremely tense in my neck/traps/jaw etc 24/7 But 30 minutes neck stretching a day is the only thing that has given me significant improvement Not only that, but I feel uglier when my body feels off. The combo of increased blood flow from running then stretching is best imo. You feel softer and more like your body is able to be used and assist you properly in life instead of distracting you with unpleasant sensations

Maybe everyone knows of it already but it’s one of my favorite songs ever

Well I didn’t read the responses talking about rayman I just saw the post about gta 6 so I remember playing older versions in my past and i remember the strip clubs so i assumed gta 6 would have it So I joked about the delay being unfortunate because i wanted to visit the strip club And then you said rayman, meaning if I wanted to visit the clubs in rayman too, i didn’t know what it was so i googled and it said its a game. So i joked that “that too” meaning yea i wanna go to the clubs in Rayman too Hope you can sleep now jk

Well never make a joke again then #burn

That’s unfortunate, I wanted to go to the strip club

It’s cool how the diet that seems healthiest for a lot of people also is better for planet and animals simultaneously

I know that (I imagine someone reading this convo and reacting like “well I can tell why she doesn’t have many friends 😂”)
