Hard pill to swallow but when you do this, NT people just think ur making it about urself (you are)
The solution is to be curious about the other person, and ask questions. When they reciprocate, then you can relate. Theres a certain rhythm that you have to keep up.
Here's a few more teen pics. Some of you had fun with these before and even DM'd me about it. My high school rewrote their dress code after I left. I found too many loopholes that pissed off the midwestern WASP adults and they waited until I was gone to fix it lmao
The weirdest flex has to be “it’s leather”
You mean the skin of a gentle animal that was brutally killed, then treated with toxic chromium and then coated in (guess what?) plastic.
And also yes excess sodium can bloat you but hyponatremia can bloat you too so you have to make sure ALL of your electrolytes are balanced and make sure you're drinking enough water. You can use cronometer to help you track your electrolyte intake if needed
It's because most ultraprocessed foods are very high in salt so if you mostly eat ultraprocessed foods you'll end up having loads of issues like high blood pressure, but the thing is that people will overcompensate and give themselves hyponatremia so you need a healthy balance
Basically just eat less ultraprocessed foods and don't completely eliminate salt from your diet because that can send you straight to the ER. I feel so sick and fatigued every time I don't eat enough salt so please be careful esp since it's summer!!
there's also a difference between venting to your close friends about a frustrating situation vs carelessly slandering someone to random people. learning to judge the nuance and being able to provide an appropriate response is also something you have to learn.
maybe it'll help someone out there but the best lesson I learned in my 20s was to surround myself with great friends who weren't afraid of confrontation & being upfront with how they felt and open-minded in those hard conversations. dealing with indirect people who refuse to address problems directly and yet still talk about the issue behind your back to others will be a big source of anxiety & the pit in your stomach regarding friendships. there's a lot of wonderful people out there, but you absolutely do have to look ✨
i’m not even saying that as a Vibe…. i really think identifying too hard with victimhood when you get hurt in relationships can make you lose your sense of Integrity and start being weird
people have no problem with synthetic fibres and happily flex goretex jackets and shoes until they hear the word “vegan”. Obviously plastic is bad, but that’s seemingly not the reason why people have an issue with “vegan leather”
