I live in a weird little country. It's in Europe, but it feels like it's in Africa. I found matcha tea once and can't find it ever since. Luckily we do have access to www.ebay.co.uk and www.aliexpress.com Anyone ordered matcha and/or other "superfoods" from one of these services?

Nasty stench fumes, rancid... My guess is you're either trolling or blowing it out of proportion. If what you're saying is true, it is you who chose this. You can always gift her a perfume or something of that manner.

It means you have over 50 posts. Next milestone is 100, go!

It's a bit of a reality check though, isn't it? A polar opposite to the mindset we're nurturing here. Not everyone is nice.

Relax, nothing is under control.

What does "hot" mean? A person who won the genetic lottery? A person that presents herself as desirable? A person with high charisma? A person paying extreme attention to her looks? A person with high sexual energy? It's all in the eye of the beholder. What you find hot I might not, and vice versa. Wow, it rhymes. Either way, it's a gross oversimplification and generalization. The question is why are you asking this question? Are you insecure around girls you find attractive?

More then anything it's about being well hydrated. Drink 2-3 liters of water a day. Sleep is important as well, both in quality and quantity. You will also need to eat lots of fruits and veggies for the essential vitamins. Yes, you can get rashes, pimple outbreaks, baldness and other kinds of illnesses from your neurotic thoughts alone. Calm it down by meditating, it helps a lot.

It arrived today, I'm very satisfied with quality as well as the amount!

Been eating in a 6 hour window for about a year. It feels great after you get acclimated to it. Found a better variation though: Working out 6 days a week, I also eat well 6 days a week, no fasting. Trying to maximize growth. On my resting day, instead of doing a cheat day or something silly like that, I fast on water for 36 hours straight. It is producing insane results. I am melting away while growing muscle, it seems unreal... I find it easier to be really hungry for a day then a little hungry every day. In 36 I should be melting away 3000-4000 cal, and it sure as hell shows. No muscle loss, in fact the opposite. As far as protein goes, a protein shake after a workout is more then enough. This is assuming you protein from food sources during the rest of the day. I don't think anyone really needs BCAA or anything other supplement, but you can try it and see how it goes. This is assuming you want o have a beach body, not a pro body builder body, that's a whole different ballgame. Keep ripping and luck soldier.

Moderation is key, always. Whenever you feel you need to do anything, just stop. You need to be in the driving seat. That said, if it feels good, drink up.

"The way of the superior man" by David Deida talks about this exactly. Really changed my views on sexuality.

@Argue Use this anger to give a "fuck you" to this industry. You are bigger then this. @Journey That's awesome, good job. I did the same thing recently, threw away half of my stuff. Feels empowering. I hadn't cleaned up my hard drive though, a good point there... Good luck to both of you. You seem like intelligent people, so I know you'll find a away to outgrow this. P.S. Argue, you can use the journal section of the forum for accountability purposes.

@Argue Realize how much time you are putting into it. Realize life is passing by you. If you choose to practice any other skill you'd be a God at it. Instead, you waste away doing daily quests and other boring nonsense you didn't even sign up for. It's all worthless.

@Journey Yep, your guild depending on you, it's a sense of duty alright. I just got fed up with it all at one point, couldn't do it anymore... Fuck your dailies, fuck your repainted items, fuck this. Like a small nervous breakdown. Stayed contact with my closest friends via social networks, but I never returned to the game. Not without sin though, I still play Dota from time to time... Are you trying to stop now or is it already in the past?

This. I had a raid/pvp schedule for every day of the week. Sounds absurd now, but I was actually trying to fit in real life around WoW instead of vice versa. Funniest bit was when you finally get that set you're farming for three months, a new patch comes out and all of a sudden it means nothing. It's all about the next thing.

@kalter000 Well said, probably the most crucial aspect.

I'm sure we can all relate to this one...

What's the earliest you've meditated relative to waking up? How do you do it? Can you do it without caffeine? I am not a morning person, so every bit of advice will help... Thanks.

You mean cooking in bulk and heating it up later?

Could be, it's hard to say really. It probably lowers the quality of the forum a bit, assuming it's the case. I'm sure they'll get bored of it eventually. In the meantime, here's some rep for you!

This is really, really weird... This should be an honor. From what I can tell you are a normal girl, with healthy sexual appetites. He's obviously got some issues. The problem is that he's the only one that can work on that, no amount of effort on your part can fix that. Ask your self if he is making you happy, the way he is now. Don't expect any radical changes, but rather see if you can accept it. If you really like him, give it some time, but don't waste your life away on people who don't care. I'd say he's either gay or has serious emotional issues with intimacy.

It is perfectly normal to have a "chattering monkey" in your mind while you meditate. Your goal is not to to kill him, but to keep him under control. Or at least more control. This is one of many automatic systems in our machinery, it's ok. Pay attention to your emotions while this is happening. Your emotions manifest them self in physical symptoms, meaning you can feel them with your body as they come and go. The more aware you are of your emotions, the easier it is to control and contain them.

@Donald It's true, so just accept it and don't come back to that thought. Self pity is a terrible, destructive emotion. Being more aware, it is us that need to find understanding for them, not vice versa. It's our privilege. I have one person in my immediate surroundings that I can discuss this stuff with. Others I try to influence trough my own example and positive behavior. But don't waste time on people that don't want that. Life is short, and there's an infinite number of things we want to do ourselves.

Regarding her behavior, she will never change, just accept that. If you are ok with how she is, great, but if you constantly feel the need to change her, it will inevitably lead to resentment. Beauty is a relative thing. I feel the most important thing here is not genetics or natural beauty, but effort. Looks always fade in time, but if a person cares, he/she will make an effort to look as good as possible. I've met a lot of women, young and old that don't have a pretty face, but have charisma off the charts due to always smelling good, dressing well, having a nice figure, manners. Especially important if she's someone you consider spending your life with. You are obviously having doubts. Ask yourself: Does this person make me happy, exactly the way she is? This is what it comes down to, always.
