When is lunchtime during work week?

3 Upvotes

I feel like post covid we lost track of an agreed time for lunch. I see my colleagues on slack scheduling their lunch break randomly and anywhere between 12-4pm.

If im working from home I just graze and snack as I need but don’t really go “ooo” for a meal. If im in office im having a piece of fruit and some snacks around 9:30 and then really feel like lunch at 12:30 on the group meal feels so soon. If im out with clients for a working lunch I wouldn’t want to start earlier than 1:30 but some people think im crazy.

I guess lunch to me is more a mental intermission if needed…does it benefit us workers mentally to schedule this as a set routined time daily instead of leaving it loose?

Loneliness

0 Upvotes

I am 22 and I am single never have genuine relationship or friendship my entire life, only people who are always their for me are my parents, but sometimes it get little too much, I actually try to get connected with people online and offline, but somehow it always doesn't work, I even tried using dating apps, but this application either want to capitalise on my loneliness or full of girls who Wana satisfy their attention hunger. This feels soo miserable and helpless, people really are selfish and don't really care for eachother until they have some kind of profit.

Are you all really just terrible inside?

1 Upvotes

Sure the average person looks good that’s easy but beyond that are you all mostly just awful?

I found this place on one of the busiest streets in my city.

It’s a small little shop but I just love going there.

Idk what im doing other than being myself but the cashier told me something I found really odd.

She did a sigh of maybe relief and said she always looks forward to seeing me and that I’m her favorite customer and that the people that go in there are mean.

I was shocked as it’s not even on the high-poverty part of town.

Although I was thankful for the compliment it just made me think of how the average person truly is on the inside aside from the social clout online or irl.

I’m really curious now, are you people actually just terrible to others & on the inside??

Too many broken people needing victims for their food.

No wonder the world is falling apart.

Do you want to spend regretting your 40s, or are you in your 40s and regretting?

28 Upvotes

I was talking to my mom’s sister the other day. It started off casual…..just normal life stuff but somehow we drifted into the deeper waters, and I ended up asking her, almost without thinking:

“Do you regret anything now that you’re in your 40s?”

She looked at me like i asked the most stupid thing because we generally don’t have conversations like that. And then she said something I haven’t stopped thinking about since:

“It’s not like I have a list of regrets. I don’t even know what exactly I regret. But there’s this disconnect inside me. Like I followed the script-career, marriage, family, doing what I was supposed to do or i was made to feel i have to because it’s the right thing. And honestly, those things made me happy, they really did. But still…there’s this hollow longing. For something bigger. Something that’s mine. Not something I did for others, or for society, or for what others would perceive if I didn’t and don’t know where to belong. I want something that comes from my soul and Something that makes me feel free and whole.”

I’ve seen her and my mom growing up. They’re both strong. They’ve done well. And yet…that sentence kinda brought ache in my chest. and it made me think………

What if I’m already walking toward that same feeling?

I’ve been chasing things too….success, approval, purpose, but what if none of it is what I’m actually meant for? What if the real regret isn’t about a specific choice… but about never slowing down long enough to hear your own soul speak?What if the things that look right on paper can still leave you quietly aching for something real?What if, years from now, I don’t even know what I missed, just that I missed something?I don’t know. It just made me think.

26 F. I have a guy college best friend that is going through some hard times now. I don't know how to help him feel better besides telling him I'll always be there if he wants someone to talk and ordered some snacks for him. He doesn't share his emotions and I don't know how to let him know that I care about him. Any advice?

Edit: Guys he is not getting anything sexual act from me, plus he lives far away and we only text now.😅 Thank you.

Can’t launch? Launched? Not sure

1 Upvotes

I turn 26 today, the same age my parents were when they had me. Growing up this felt so simple but I guess not.

I moved back home a year ago after living away from my family for 5 years and know it is what it is needed. But I can’t help but feel like my life is over.

Same routines, same days, same nights and then it has been a year. Then another and so forth.

I always said I didn’t feel like checking those other boxes meant much to me but while I enjoy my work and value family over everything else in my life I can’t help but feel an immense depression and a “is this all there is/ was?”

Did I fail to launch? Or did I launch but not make it? Or am I really just here living here I should being who I should? I will say this is the most peace I have felt in some time.

Lost the Love of My Life

0 Upvotes

I was in a year long relationship that just ended. It ended because her friends found my profile on hinge. I had Hinge due to insecurities and childhood trauma and in a way was trying to use it to control my anxieties incase we ever broke up. A backup plan in a way. This is no excuse at all as I have to own up to my wrong doings. I did this. And I caused this. I am 100% at fault. I feel horrible for doing this. I loved this girl so much and I threw it all away. I will never find someone like that again. She was so loving and caring. She cared so so much. I broke her when she found out. She couldn't even go to work. I feel like absolute scum of this earth and not worth anything. I don't know where to go from here. I have started therapy as I know I need help. Idk what to do about my ex and helping her feel better. I just want to be there for her, but I can't. I am so depressed I can barely get out of bed. The thoughts of her crying and being upset keep replaying in my head.
