  1. Idk, everytime he addresses me as God I somehow feel... seen. Like he actually knows me. Its weird I know, because he is just a guy on a screen. But never felt like someone understands me as intimately as he does!
  2. You want to to notice the jealousy and then welcome it, accept it and feel it completely. More on that here, Integrating Emotions (You can skip Step 1). Something else you can do which is also part of Emotional Mastery is to shine light on the mindset surrounding your situation. Explore why you are feeling jealous when your roomate has sex. Not everyone will feel that way in this situation. What do they think differently about this stuff? How could your roomate having sex actually be something positive and good for your life?
  3. You miss out a lot of information. Like how old you are, how long you've been together etc. From the little you told us I can just say that making fun about others in your relationship can be toxic and not really mature. Maybe your ex felt bad for him, or you had the vibe that you had to downplay a friend because you felt threatend.
  4. Yep, thanks for sharing on the blog also! I've been eating Lindt 85% in ungodly amounts the last year Its the mild one but still think the lead poisoning will be similar/same to the other one. Knew about cadmium already. There are several ways to get it down. Volcanic soil is bad, so plants from as far away as possible to volcanos is best. Then the PH of the soil in which the cocoa tree is planted plays a big role in the amount of cadmium absorbed in the bean. Unfortunately brands like Lindt aren't really transparent about where they source from. Anyone knows where to get Mast chocolate in Europe, seems like they closed their business in London?
  5. I think this depends on the type of people you are. Clearly this is not working how it is now, so I would either get two different rooms to work in (we use the kitchen sometimes to work in). Or for more long time solution. From the money you save by living together rent an office space nearby. They can come quite cheap and you can also do coworking where you can network with other people. Her actions could be an indicator that she has fear of commitment. Think anxious attachment style. But that's just a guess from afar.
  6. These kind of decisions I found can be best made with abrupt personality change. You think about and then come to the conclusion that you are now that person who is not eating crap and meditates every day. The key factor is, if you want it or not You make a logical and emotional decision to be that person. That means if you decide for it, you will never again want it the other way. So you have to let go of the part of you that used to do it different. You will from that point on never feel like your old self. It is a big sacrifice, you will feel it. Out of that a new identity is born.
  7. Most women don't understand men psychology and vice versa. And even if they understand, that doesn't mean they act on that understanding.
  8. You are in for a rude awakening
  9. Depends on what you are looking for. You want to find a good relationship: Then enjoy the date but be very cautious with how she handles the situation and see if there are any signs that she fails your standards for a serious relationship. You are not looking for a relationship: Just go on the date and enjoy. Don't bring up the boyfriend if you don't feel like it. If you are not looking for something serious with her then it is none of your business. Be truthful with your intentions, don't lie to her (should be common sense).
  10. Yeah it takes courage (same as being truthful). In your scenario the partner that grew up could also end the relationship. Why is he still in it, if he is so grown up and doesn't love them anymore? So this is actually a situation in which a lot of fuck ups happened (both not facing the fact that the relationship has effectively ended a long time ago) before someone decides to cheat.
  11. No one said you have to measure it objectively. Of course value will be very subjective. Some people will value what you do a little, some will not value it at all. But some people will place huge value on what you do. You just have to find those people and figure out how to help them even more. If you are not willing to do that, why should society hand out extra rewards to you?
  12. Oftentimes it's one of the later symptoms of a relationship turning bad a long time ago. So if you think the relationship isn't good anymore just end it before you cheat. But if you think the relationship can be saved be truthful to your partner about what you do and how you see things.
  13. Ah I see, thought you where still talking about the game you played against the computer. Sounds good, could be something to build on.
  14. Enjoyed that reading Which knight moves? Why did you decide to teach chess, is that your LP?
  15. I would ask myself why even play WoW. Aren’t there better things to do? But I also bought the collectors edition back in 2004 and played the beta
  16. Interesting, how was the relationship between your parents when you grew up?
  17. Haha yes, I know what you mean! It's a bit like candy right? You can still Grow out of it. After all there are plenty of beautiful women out there. Also the whole package is important. I'd much rather be alone than dealing with a raging Victoria Secret model in a bad mood, throwing tantrums and stuff.
  18. Agree with @LastThursday You set the standards for what works and what doesn't work for you. That being said as a men it is attractive when you can be with your emotions. Whatever comes up frustration, anger, sadness. Let it all out. But you are comfortable with holding the emotion in your body. Grounding the situation so to speak.
  19. Obliterating your old self that you do not want and becoming the new self you want to be. Your new life will come from the way you are.
  20. Yeah you respect money by not wasting it. And having money around is helpful. Especially if you want peace of mind. I think it is a very personal topic. Some people with a steady job will have a different relationship with money than people who are self employed. Also be mindful of all the ways you keep money away from you, because you are afraid of it and its implications. ❤️
  21. Liberation can only exist when you have its opposite: enslavement. Like good and bad, it is an illusion and doesn't exist in Reality.
  22. Yes, also by bringing awareness to emotions and resistance towards that behavioral change. And bringing awareness to the identification with it. And bringing awareness to the structure of your surroundings. And to the beliefs you hold about it.
  23. No, try Self-deconstruction and Self-Love instead. Regarding Tate, look up the AGFLAP-CAP Emotional Chart. By getting angry at him for making fun of you, you might climb up a few ladders. But it's still far from optimal. Find out ways to climb higher once you are done with this stage.
  24. Please use the old thread instead of making a new one.
