about a week ago I dreamed I had sex with my mom and last night I dreamed my mom had a dick (non-sexual) and my alcoholic narcissistic uncle was making fun of her (almost said him)/me. Wtf.

What It’s Like To Not Love Your Body
Feeling Lonely?. >If you're single, doesn't mean you're not in a relationship - you're just focussing on your most important relationship, the relationship with yourself....being lonely is a mindset, not a situation.
Next time you're in transit, walking, whatever, you might like to try not to look at people to see if it will drain your will-power.

Your Nature is Unconditional Happiness
You cannot create happiness; you can only reveal the happiness that is already inside of you. Your very nature is unconditional happiness.
Things I learned from a men's fitness magazine (jan 2016): (1) first 3 bites of food taste get then it's all over. So, when you give into temptation proportion appropriately (2) wearing suits at work improves your career prospects (3) hungry women pick up on less romantic cues
Despite how great hiring sex is, I would probably have more fun spending the equivelant amount going to a concert like this. Now I don't feel like I'm supressing my desire, just choosing the most pleasant options in life.
The whole universe culminates in my subjective personal experience. What a unifying thought.
I'm tired of all these fucgurls
can you share tips for how I can improve my relationship with myself? no my handsome friend, you already know how to love. I know that because there are people on this planet already enjoying your love every single day. All you gotta do, is point some of that love. Be nice to yourself, compliment yourself, trust yourself. Make time for yourself, act as if you are your own best friend...it is tricky to execute...'you do not need to be loved, not at the cost of yourself.'

Magneto, I love that quote!
So I finally overcame my habit of checking out people,compulsively thanks to the wisdom of realising relationships are about compromise, hard work, and growth, rather than love at first site, and dramatic vulnerability.
When I feeling like looking up dumb stuff on youtube, instead I'll look up this

I tried using wheat vinegar apple flavour from a Korean store to get rid of the lint in my wash, but it didn't work.
I feel a power differentia whenever I’m around someone who hasn’t been open and vulnerable around me and I have.
That seems sane to me. You do indeed have a power differential.
However, being able to be vulnerable like that is really a strength.
Meh, not really. To me it's backward thinking. Being so strong that it doesn't matter if you're vulnerable to other is the real strength.
If it's worth saying, but not worth its own post (even in Discussion), then it goes here.
