I agree!

Thank you!

This is very interesting. I’m an extrovert, and 2 folks I love are introverted / shy. To the point they have anxiety attacks, one is under the care of a psychologist and a psychiatrist.

I think the key point is you arrived at that epiphany in your own time. I would never want to force an introvert or shy person to “get there” with something like this.

I see exactly what you are driving at. The issue is if you actually live with anxiety this seems so completely un-do-able that it won’t get done. I have a somewhat introverted teen with an anxiety disorder and we definitely do not do anything full scale this direction, nor would her counselor or psychologist…

Tahini has a decidedly strong flavor—I wouldn’t recommend for this recipe.

You’re a national hero, thank you for this.

Thank you for this--I am a systems for long term progress kind of woman. I have always, always hated “goals”.

THIS, a thousand times!

This a thousand times—you’ve seen elsewhere me posting I’m 48. I do not regret any instance of not calling, texting, etc. the person who was trying to ghost me.

Yup and then you go and get it! That’s the key, don’t you go without. Was the last one masterful at massages? Fine, save up, and go get yourself a professional massage. Do it more than once.

I’m so sorry—you honestly deserve so much better. And the sad truth is that this is one that all women have to struggle with, the sooner we learn to move on from the ghosting douchebag the better. I totally support your intelligence, beauty, and lovability—and the right people do too!

Ouch. See my other post—this isn’t accidental behavior. Block him now, grieve and move on. Don’t keep diminishing yourself.

So at 48, this is what I can say: some folks have advised you call or text him; I totally don’t recommend it. You know what reality is, and you know exactly what you are witnessing; you are not imagining this. Every time we keep reaching back out to someone who is not reaching for us in equal measure, it becomes more…

I was surprised that they didn’t rotate the blades backward much earlier in the climb up the hill—I would think that it would be easier to drive without wind catching at the blade as the tip of the blade moves forward? Maybe I’m not visualizing all of this correctly.

OMG this is my community—and my daughter went to school with and is friends with that young lady. What’s even funnier, they moved here from the mid-West!

I know I have yellow undertones, but orange-reds = orange on me. I end up with cooler tones to counteract that effect.

Thanks. Working single mom, also in school and my job is sedentary. I wish I had time to sit on the couch eating chips!

As someone who is trying to avoid diabetes, I’ve actually been wondering about how to stretch out the profound blood sugar stabilizing effects of weight lifting, and while I actually prefer to do full body rather than an arm day then leg day, etc. it’s occurred to me that blood sugar benefits could be dramatically…

I’m menopausal. You can pry the AC from the cold dead fingers of everyone in my household.
