Does this make sense to anyone?
oh even the LSU flasher i told about in other thread like i heard the story and felt bad for him tbh
That was the story that got me thinking about it. And thats another thing women mock.. men who cry
yep, they want a guy to show emotion and be sensitive but if he cries or is low or hurting they make fun of him
most girls want a guy to be a rock is all. sure if he sheds a tear occasionally they might be amazed by it. because rocks don't cry. it'd be amazing and rare to see.
if he's a bucket full of water all the time that's nothing special. some women, not all, might kick that bucket over just to see the water come out.
if you're a guy you just gotta accept that. it's as sure as the sunrise.
you’re not wrong2 -

eta: oop wrong meme gimme sec
eta2: heres the right one but left wrong one bc it funny too
Haha I like both of those. No one ever asks me anymore what my favorite Platonic solid is 😕 but I so want to use that sometime!
FOR THE RECORD, it's a dodecahedron. Y'all don't care...

If you give it some bread it will return the favor with supplemental medical insurance.
Bread is bad for birds. It is better to bring a bag of mixed frozen veggies like peas and give them that.
I give my ducks and geese romaine lettuce everyday.....with a little dandelion mixed in.
Nice. Take pics of them please.

100% it's a low blow. Like if you're not attracted to (any trait) why point it out and trash it, especially publicly? It's a you "thing"...and that's ok...but when spoken in a derogatory or potentially shaming situation...
its mean spirited, and definitely a lack of ingenuity. But (I'm going all literal now) you did say "we" and that isn't you
and most often isn't me, I hope.
...that being said, I hate looking at feet, almost everyones (there is one pair of feet I like!)
(not trying to breeze over your thought @caco_ethes ...just point out my own hypocrisy)

It just dawned on me that I don't actually talk to anyone at work. Other than this one guy friend. The other one works on day shift. I only talk to one person here on MFP, because he's a great support friend.
I enjoy small circles, less stuff to deal with.3 -
I feel like I am in a different place than my friends...feels a little lonely right now.0

I'm tired
I don't want to be at work
First week back at school is a pain in the *kitten* - SO much domestic crappery, I hate it
I have just signed up to do a French A level, and all I want to do is study that + go out on my bike in the sunshine + sleep.
That is all.1 -

Not to get all Oprah on you, but people seem to have an emotional energy and many of them leave me feeling drained and deflated.3

I am not sure about you first phrase but people do have energy and most aren’t aware on how to manage it. When one is down people tend to stay away unless they are popular or something but only for a bit bc it will pull them down too. You can even feel it in post

I shouldn't try to workout before I wake up or had my coffee. I tried to put on my neoprene workout suit backwards.0

The most vivid dream I've ever had involved a cobra about to attack my mom. I started kicking it and woke up in bed, violently kicking with my heart pounding out of my chest. 😵 So scary!2 -

Yikes that is scary.
I know these snakes are "harmless", but I've had this dream before where I am the iguana.
