Official Kiwifarms Uplifting Each Other Thread - Support group for women

[Otterly]

heard once that in a lot of fatal road range incidents, the aggressor's windows are rolled down, indicating that they had no working AC in their vehicles and were trying to cool down before the incident.

The murder rate and violent crime goes up as the temperature does, it’s a known effect.

Heat sucks, luckily where I am we don’t get much of it but when we do I suffer.

It feels weird being single again, I haven’t been since my mid-20’s.

It’s nice being alone properly for a long while.

Seconding others who say to be purposefully single again for a while. It takes some time to get yourself together IME. Bit well done for leaving, doesn’t sound like a healthy situation.
I am feeling very down about what’s going on in the UK, it seems like the whole country is falling to bits and going full retard surveillance state.
Also have a family member determined to kill themselves via substance abuse.
Not much i can do about either of those things, the former is out of my control and the latter I’ve been trying for a while to help and nothing has changed. Pffffft.

I think he might have bipolar honestly. His mood is all over the place. All my family and friends have told me the same thing, even if he does kill himself it’s not my fault. I’ve told him to go to a doctor about him potentially having bipolar but he won’t, he has been let down by the NHS pretty badly mentally.

I am still in contact with him, we will remain friends. He seems to be doing weirdly fine. This could be a manic episode though.

Yeah, mental health services are terrible right now, there’s very little help available . Pretty rough.

I'm so sick of the thirst. It's really bad here. I've encountered thirst just about everywhere. Even the ER last year. I was sexually harassed for hours. Through two and a half Friday films on the TV. I know I should have said something. But I didn't want to encounter this guy in the neighborhood. From what the staff was saying he was a serial patient that would come in, refuse triage and bother people until his daughter came to pick him up. I guess they can't turn anyone away from the ER and he seemed mentally ill.

Today I was walking back from the supermarket and this guy slowed down his car and kept trying to get me to come in. There was nobody around. I've had this happen before in that area and I had to take the back streets away from the main road so it would be more likely people would be outside or I could knock on a door. I literally had to walk to a school once because I figured this guy wouldn't dare follow me there so close to dismissal. I once followed an old lady because I was hoping the guy would think we were together. These are all different guys by the way.

Even in the winter where I'm wearing a coat or bulky layers it still happens. I've seen women in hijab groped. It's like some men have no boundaries at all and view women as meat. I never remember it this bad. There's trafficker issues here. But I think most of it is guys with insane levels of thirst who are too inept to actually get any women who don't cost money. WTF makes men think that some random woman wants to take a ride with them? And after you say no multiple times they still follow you.

I've had these guys come up to me and say "Are you ok?". I think this is some kind of lingo for "Let me pretend to help you right on the first flight to Dubai". They are fishing for any vulnerable female they can find. Where I live is really bad. If you are on the main road after dark and are female people assume you are a prostitute or vulnerable. There is no way for me to bypass said road to get anywhere. It must be crossed. You just try to hurry home. Thank God the laundromat is brightly lit and open until 10pm. Because when it closes it's pitch black.

Don't be afraid to talk about your interests, no matter how cringe it might be. People who care about you will be more than willing to listen, even if they've never heard about what you're talking about.

 

[missnaptime]

be proud of yourself and your capability to keep going - you have survived 100% of your bad days, and if things are tough, know that this won't last forever and better times will await you soon! please be compassionate with yourself and remember to take care of your emotional and physical health.

 

[crazedaze]

Wow, women are so awesome and cool. You are capable of so much, I mean, can you imagine getting mati because people are telling each other nice supportive things on the internet? Me neither. Just one of the reasons I love women so much hope you ladies have a wonderful joyous day

 

[grenouille crétine]

I am so grateful that even after years of pooning out, I feel safe and welcome in women’s spaces. I love complimenting random women on a cool bag or shirt, etc and I love how often other women do it too, unprompted, or immediately return the compliment with something nice about me, and it always feels genuine. I love when there is some male being creepy or disruptive that other women are brave and say/do something, and I love being able to be that woman for others when they need it too. I love being in a space with other women talking and working and just existing, free and happy and safe. I love reading the words of women I have never and will never meet, in books and poems and internet posts, and whether I share her experience or not, feeling like there is now a thread across the universe tying us together in some small, intangible way.

It’s not easy being female sometimes. But other women make it all worth it.

You sound like this isn't your first rodeo, but with regards to the family member needing help: if they don't want it, they will not accept it. That whole old adage of leading a horse to water is pretty true; if it doesn't want to drink, it won't drink. I hope your family member manages to want to be helped with their issue though. It's extremely difficult and exhausting to try and help those that do not want it or aren't ready for it. So, take care of yourself and don't let dealing with this burn your candle on both ends.

As for the UK - I always have a funny feeling it's the front-runner of a lot of other EU countries. I'm fairly certain our government is also going in your direction and it's terrifying.

I'm tired of how difficult it seems to form healthy friendships with men. I went over to a friend's house to play some games. His house was a dump, save for the two shelves' worth of figurines. I don't want to sound powerlevely, so I'll just say that he invaded my personal space for the entire time I was there. He also claimed he was suicidal for not having a girlfriend when he'd have a much easier time finding one if he didn't limit his dating pool to only asian women.

The real kicker is that when I told my friends about it, they said it's because "men don't get complimented so they think any form of affection means you like them!" Are you kidding me?

I had a guy that invaded my personal space a lot at a church dance as a teenager. Luckily it was mainly my arms, but it was still uncomfortable. We teach the concept of personal space to toddlers, yet some adult moids can’t handle basic decorum. We really need etiquette classes for moids in particular. So many things women get naturally socialized to do aren’t enforced nearly as often with men.

 

[Palm Tree Corpse]

Moids are pornsick animals with no moral compass when it comes to getting their rocks off. PL?: I caught my own father watching daughterswap porn. I'm sick.

 

[JambledUpWords]

Moid hands wrote this post. What are your hobbies and hobbies that you deem interesting? Big booba in vidya?

Moid hobbies:

• Vidya
• Anime
• Crypto
• History (but only WWII, or possibly American Civil War)
• Porn
• AI porn
• Inserting themselves into women’s spaces like troons

 

[Meursault's gun]

Anyway, most women I have met are considerably more intellectually stimulating than the average male, and most have incredibly interesting and peculiar hobbies. Chances are that YOU reading this have at least one as well. Keep at it, you will inspire countless women throughout your lifetime.

 

[Not a bee]

Oh, since I'm here:

You don't have to put up a "nice" front to moids, especially online. They will take your kindness for granted. They will discard you once they figure out you don't have a crush on them. Also you being nice = having a crush on them in their eyes.

Just be honest. You don't have to be rude, unless you want to, but yeah. You're not a bitch because you're not nice to moids.

 

[The Jewel of the Nile]

Chances are that YOU reading this have at least one as well.

Let's all list our hobbies then, I'd love to read about them
A couple of mine:
-sewing
- historical sewing
-repairing antique sewing machines
- horse riding (I want to learn more about the art of dressage)

 

[missnaptime]

anyway back to wholesomeposting. you deserve nice things and to look and feel beautiful. not for any subpar moid but for yourself and to accentuate your own confidence. if that means wearing a lipstick and makeup? great - if that means chucking on a moisturiser and taking a little more care with your skincare, or just learning to do it at all to make yourself feel better, if that's your thing? absolutely do it. self love doesn't have to come in big boombastic waves and programs. it can be something small.

you deserve to give yourself the care you give to others in the world <3

(you also deserve good naps)

 

[Palm Tree Corpse]

Sewing and DIY are also some of mine. I'm a digital artist who occasionally makes money off of it, and I am very passionate about music. I have a CD collection, I can play the piano, and I'm working on learning bass.

since we're on the 'let's talk about our hobbies' train, here's some of mine!

- floriography and making custom bouquets for the people i love - floriography is the victorian (and modern) practice of 'the language of flowers'; where flowers have symbolic meanings behind them. i like making custom bouquets that say unique things and look pretty for the people in my life!
- knitting, crotcheting, sewing
- vintage makeup
- vintage fashion circa 1890-1960
- video gaming

and more lol, i tend to not have a lot of free time because i like a lot of things haha. i also want to learn how to play the lute, as i think its a beautiful historical instrument.
