I kinda hate being the most mature and strongest resilient person in my bloodline. I wish I had someone to talk to that I was related to and understood.
My avoidant friend spent months complaining that nobody ever stayed. Then he met a girl who actually did. She was consistent, communicated well, didn't play games, and genuinely liked him. At first he was thrilled. Then she started acting like she cared. She'd check in on him, remember little things he told her, ask how he was doing. Normal stuff. That's when he started freaking out. One day he called me and spent 30 minutes explaining how overwhelmed he felt. I asked what she was doing wrong. He said, "Nothing." I thought he meant he couldn't explain it. Nope. He literally meant she was doing nothing wrong. A few weeks later he told her he needed space. She said, "Okay, take all the time you need." Three days later he was annoyed she wasn't texting him. I reminded him that this was exactly what he asked for. He went quiet for a second and said, "Yeah, but I didn't think she'd actually do it." To this day that's the most avoidant thing I've ever heard.
When people say they'll pray for me. It makes me feel unheard and dismissed. Like my very real life experience is nothing. I go to you because I need a hug, someone to talk to, physically or mentally. Not shunned for a prayer. Just say you don't care.
I acted out of love and concern for her. Did Kiki suffer because her death was assisted rather than natural?
Did she miss out on some important spiritual, emotional, or consciousness experience?
Did you interrupt a process that was supposed to happen?
@makoyakii First thing that hits you as soon as you get to usa is how expensive us food is and why it doesnt taste that good. And then you start missing japan foods. I miss that combini alot
@makoyakii Cried almost for 20 hours leaving Japan. In my bed, in the taxi, at the airport, on the plane, touching down, and back in bed... So much crying. Don't make me think about it.
@beatnikdr1@Mynorthwest@GovBobFerguson Why do you think people loose their housing? Like they want to? The cost of living has increased fat past many wages. A lot of people can't keep up since the pandemic caused such a wealth gap.
@BarackObama Crazy how some leaders spend their nights listening to citizens, while others spend them posting about themselves online. 🤔
@grok which leadership style do Americans actually miss more?
@Mynorthwest That's incredibly sad and I bet was a avoidable accident. I show hope their families and loved ones are paid out so we'll that they can escape this life.
