So many people have told me I'm quite a gossip guy, which is a reason for not believing in me and not telling me stuff. It makes me feel bad, because I don't know how stfu. And I really want to build better relationships with my friends, and everyone I meet. Because I believe if I don't stop this, I will end up being hated by everyone (and hating everyone as well).

When I’m frustrated or stressed, I always get that “pre cry” sound in my voice when I speak. This usually prompts someone to ask why I’m crying (even if I’m not crying yet, they can tell it’s coming). When someone asks why I’m crying, I just spiral . What is wrong with me and why do I get so emotional so easily? I hate it

A little more than a month ago, I took shrooms for the first time with a couple buddies of mine. During my trip, I kept thinking about my life and why I have felt so miserable for its entirety. Then, I finally realized that I haven't been truly living with the rest of you; I've been living in my head this whole time. I took a few deep breaths, and I finally just let go. I understand that being on shrooms is a big part of this, but it was such a free, satisfying feeling to just accept the moment as it was and deciding to live in it. Since then, I would say that I've generally been happier, but I desperately want that feeling again. I am finally choosing to pursue happiness. I know its possible without shrooms. How can I learn/practice living in and appreciating the moment?

My Girlfriend and I like to dance a lot and we like to do fun figures etc but we don't see ourselves that often and hence my question. How to learn dances for two when we are separate? (we really like folk dances) And how to improve fast in short time?

i recently moved to this city & its been a year now (ive been visiting this city on and off since childhood). however im struggling to memorize the routes. like forexample i live in a housing society here& if i take a different turn than the one i usually take, i cant seem to locate the shop or place im looking for even though everything is connected. no matter how many times I go through different streets, they always feel unfamiliar as if ive never been there before. its frustrating bec i cant seem to form a mental map of the area. i dont understand why my brain isnt processing it properly.

Alright, I don’t really know how I’m going to describe this but I’ll try: So I’ve always considered myself to be pretty funny. Not like a stand up comedian, but I can be with people and make them laugh. However, I’ve noticed that the longer I know someone, the less funny I get with them. I have these friends that I’ve known for years that I talk to individually every day, but I feel like I only get a laugh or two out of all of them combined every day. At first I thought it was because I was just becoming less funny. So I looked up how to be funny, and people recommended watching a lot of comedy, listening to comedy podcasts, and focusing on my timing. I think I could still try this, but have any of you guys done these things and seen results? If so let me know because I think they could help Anyways back to my story. So today, I was doing something with 2 friends and two other people that I’ve spoke to maybe once or twice each. And it’s like being with people I don’t know just rejuvenates me. I was making everybody laugh for the whole duration I was talking to them, and it felt good. But after that I was wondering, why is this? Also, I’m not trying to be funny all the time. I try sometimes, but most of the time, it’s automatic and I don’t have to think about it. But again, this just happens when it’s with people I don’t know so well.

So is there a way that I can fix this? I know I can be really funny, I mean I was proving that to myself today, but do you guys know how I can stay funny? I feel like it’s a really important social aspect and I want to have that going for me. Thank you so much guys!

I wasn’t sure what to flair this as. IWTL how to change the way I think, talk, go about things. In a more positive, broader, and intellectual way. If it makes any sense? Midwest 23f

I'm currently learning french to widen my scope of work and media consumption/production and just fun in general, any speakers want to help me learn day to day words and chats? Also I'm Portuguese

I have horrible handwriting and have always been embarrassed by it. I have half decent stationary too I just can’t right well no matter what. What is the first step to this? and I will get a lot of practice I take lots of notes.

How to make, repair, and plan out clocks, watches, music and jewelry boxes, automatons, astrolabes, windup toys, pendulum machines, mechanical calculators, etc

I have a fairly large yard for my area and it is pretty underused and ugly. I want to learn to create a dense beautiful landscape that is appropriate to my climate (central Florida).

Are there any resources I should be looking at? I want to actually execute not just dabble.

So essentially our school wants us to study like this:

1.Copy their notes from board, ask questions if needed. 2.Go home read notes. 3. Spam past papers 4.Pull up to exam

I have been doing this And I havent been scoring well idk why but my friends are

Communicating overall has been an issue for me and I feel that fear of conflict has always been a sticking point.

Ran into a situation recently between two loved ones where I felt like I could have been more supportive to both parties. In no way do I want to “fix” the problem but not being there has caused me a lot of distress. I want to learn to navigate conflict to feel more competent and strong in dealing with tough times and better relationships for myself as well as others.

Bowling has always seemed like a cool hobby and being able to say “I bowled a 300” would be an accomplishment. But how in the world do you do it and be good at it?

As a GenX, I grew up in the "suck that gut in" mentality. Being told that by parents, coaches, pretty much all of society. After 40+ years of doing it, it has become so ingrained that it is borderline painful to relax my abdomen, and I believe that it has contributed to my poor posture. I used to be obese, but have remedied that through diet modification and physical activity, but muscle memory still pulls my belly in tight, and rounds my shoulder. What are some things I can do to reverse the ingrained habit.

I’ve been writing for years and my dream is to start an online magazine/ quarterly publication that invites other writers to contribute. I finally have the time and energy to do it and my theme is loosely “how traditions and culture adapt and survive in modern contexts”. But apart from that, I have so many questions! What’s the best platform? How do I get my initial readership and my first quality writers? Ideas for revenue models so I can pay writers as soon as possible?

Would love any and all advice, especially from people who’ve run magazines/ worked in this space before!

i have noticed that recently, i get angry easily. it doesn’t erupt or become violent, i just get worked up over things that i come across in my life. and it affects me. for instance, if someone cuts me off without indicating on the road, or if someone hits my chair a few times when walking by. these things used to not bother me. i used to be a lot more carefree and happier. i’m not sure what has happened in recent years, and i can’t identify a particular trigger. the only thing i can really amount it to is that i’ve met some really nasty people who took advantage of me when i was kind and generous, and it has slowly eroded at parts of myself. im not sure if this is a way to protect myself, but i do hate the person i have become and i don’t think it should justify the way i feel and react to situations. i used to act with graciousness and love. i wish to get bits of my old self back, but unfortunately now i’ve lost so much of myself that my mind is a heavy fog when i try to retrace my steps to become the person i used to be. just hope to hear from someone who has struggled similarly thank you

would like to do this for a career as i have had minor experience with it in construction

(Someone tell me if this belongs in the flair personal skills, or if it doesn't really matter)

I want to learn how to stop biting my nails. It is an extremely bad habit that I've had for a while, and I have no idea how I started it, but it's gotten so bad recently that there's almost a "dent" of sorts in my fingernail. The basic advice of putting nail polish on it, or putting a bitter tasting spray on it haven't worked. I can show a picture if needed for any reason.

Recently I posted on here wanting to learn how to flirt and the results for the most part have been insightful and helpful. For that I'd like to express my gratitude 🙏🏼 you guys are a pleasure to have in my life.

One thing I noticed while having these conversations is that I'm decent with one on one conversions but tend to take a passive role in group settings. I want my opinions and my voice to stand out more and matter during group conversations. I also want to refund my conversational threading as I noticed I can be a bit wonky when hoping over from one topic to the next.

Any insight or advice would be greatly appreciated and I hope you guys have a pleasant day ✌🏼

Hi! We had our finals earlier and guess I messed up several pts because well, I forgot the manual doing of some math calculations. Personally, I sometimes find it hard to deal with the basics of some subjects like math so I'd like to ask what are some foundational concepts that are fundamental in general subjects?

E.g. Math- manual computations, percentage

Also, what are the subjects that offer general knowledge? (If I asked the right question)

Thank you and please be kind! English is not my first language and I want to learn :>>

Besides speechify and other such apps. Something more advanced. Thanks!

i have a brain tumer affecting my dextairity so im not sure if that ruins everything but id like advice on getting better dexterity/fine motor controls

Will be adding paragraphs

Okay, so I currently live with my father and stepmother in their small two bed, one bath, house. I love them and I appreciate all that they’ve been doing for me. But I can’t really do this anymore. I’ve been having some groceries delivered to the house a few times. It can be hard to eat at home and spend less money on take out, food delivery trips, and uber trips.

I have found that very often I run on concepts, even if I understand them, because I am in a hurry to move on to the next topic. But this is harmful because I realize that after an hour some of those concepts have not remained. How can I be more calm and peaceful during study?

The town i live in has job opportunities but even with having two job interviews already, places hiring have made it difficult and i have applied anywhere that is hiring, I have called these places that interviewed several times but have had no luck.

I have some knowledge about economics but not expert level, im not a pro at editing but i have slight knowledge. i have watched videos on people giving ideas for ways to earn money like making an amazon affiliate account and advertising on pinterest or another app but i would like to have multiple ways to earn if something doesnt work out. If anyone has suggestions i would gladly appreciate them, thank you for your time.

25F. I have ADHD and severe anxiety (great combo), which makes me a bit of a clumsy ditz. I am constantly accidentally overlooking things, which makes for careless mistakes. For example, I was looking at a recipe, and when I went shopping for the ingredients, I completely forgot (and honestly never even saw on the list) a key ingredient. Another example: I was crocheting 3 rows on a crochet project, but I ended up doing only 2.5 rows, thinking that I was done the 3 rows all around.

Little things like that. And it bothers me so bad because I want to go to university and get a degree in nursing. I don't want to accidentally kill someone because I made a careless mistake.

This wasn't a problem in my life before because I was content with my close friend group, but now that I'm actually hoping to maybe date someone I keep running into this issue where people see me as boring and/or untrustworthy because I clam up around 99% of people. Which is understandable. I'll still talk, but barely, and not with any of my easy-goingness or humor. I have social anxiety.

I'm lucky to have close friends who don't embarrass me, and I can see how much more positively strangers look at me when I'm out in public with them VS when I'm by myself. It's like I get a 20x charm boost. It's like I'm only charming when I feel safe and I just almost never feel safe.
