What about boredom

What about boredom
like how to deal with boredom....?
-stay curious, keep your sense of wonder alive, give yourself something to look forward to by planning activities ahead of time, find out what is causing the boredom in your life and eliminate it if possible (sometimes we might feel bored 'cause of mental/emotional exhaustion too...like not feeling inspired enough about life...?)
-understand that life will sometimes be boring regardless of anything we do...lol but it won't always stay that way. 🙂
No i am saying
What If the person is solid n caring but bore you
Just a thought
I'm pretending to have options btwclick to expand

More then anyone I'm not good for my own mental health. I've been trying to get a refund for years now, but it turns out I'm stuck with myself. Till death do I part.

Hermit life for me
I like my own company
Having seen all the hassle and heartbreak people bring to each other, I choose to opt out...

Is it all doom and gloom though? Surely, there are as many happy love stories as unhappy ones. Random draw of luck maybe, alas, worth the risk.click to expand

I think if he is a peaceful and clean guy, it can be okay to live together. But still not as easy as living alone 💜

I am unwilling to be with someone who is bad for my mental health anymore. I like the sign 🙂
If I would’ve been okay with it, I would’ve stayed married.

Yes. It isn’t about the sign. It’s about him being an alcoholic and wanting to be enabled.. and it had turned me into codependent and making sure he was okay, and that it didn’t matter if I was okay & if my kids were okay. It was far worse once we were in a position of his parents enabling him ( when we moved to Oregon). Anyway once you do the work, you’re not putting yourself back in an unhealthy position.click to expand

That's what I do.
I hang out with good/kind people.
Quality over quantity, always.

I'd be loyal and sign up for either choice. 😆 I don't mind the toxicity. But it just won't be a long relationship. 1-2 years tops before I get bored.click to expand

The danger to this, without self-awareness, is toxic positivity. Some people may equate that post with the need for others to appease them all the time.
I saw this topic earlier and I had a hard time providing a straightforward answer. Some people have to endure living with depression and this may be taxing for other people depending on one's own sympathy level/situation/resiliency/
involvement.
As people get older, there will be add-ons that may weigh differently for everyone. It takes more than self-awareness, part of it requires perspective.
I think it's best to find people who see their own shortcomings and are actively working on themselves.
Personally, I need somebody who understands that everyone has their own crux to carry. I need somebody who's compassionate and acknowledges that possibility even with people deemed most evil by society. Somebody who understands that healing and destruction aren't isolated events, especially if we consider nurture to be the most influential on development.
Anyways, I didn't really answer the question and I forgot it already.

Truth! Toxic won’t be long term or else you’re hurting yourself. It gets old after awhile aka “the Cap” or any other guy I dated since I got divorced 🤷♀️click to expand

I've also learned that I have to pretend that I'm worried about being vulnerable, cause men don't want to risk it by themselves.
Me saying "I'm not worried cause I'm wreckless" isn't a good idea! 😆
I might be about to break your heart too! Chin up buttercup! Let's go have some fun!

very reasonable.
but i feel like people are too busy trying to find the 'right' people. but do they ask: "what am i even offering?" i've had a great weekend with someone. acted, spoke and looked the way i should. i played along even tho lately i've felt like i have nothing substantial to give anyone. plus i imagine being with me is kinda like sitting on a park bench, eating nonfat yogurt at night.
hell i bought my own bench a few days ago so i can sit and eat nonfat yogurt at the comfort of my own living room.
i got nothing to bring to the table. and i'm at peace with that 🤷♀️🤷♀️ #peakmentalhealth

i don't believe that you have nothing substantial to give to anyone...😢
you probably have many endearing traits that you don't even give yourself enough credit for.

Is there a such thing as people bringing good mental health to others? I have my reasons for being a loner. I pick my own self for good mental health.

Oh aight thanks for the clarification. I sincerely hope that you don't mind I chip in this beautiful Taurus lady that I know. By far she's the only one that can bring all those things you've listed and then some. Most of all I pick people who respects my boundaries and she does just that. I pick those that respects my privacy cus I value that with a passion. Some people are fakes about all of those things you listed. They talk a good game and say or maybe even promise to bring those good mental things but show me the complete opposite. This Taurus lady is not only pretty physically but she's real as fuck and I think that outshine her beauty. She can make a darn good friend and the moment we met we clicked instantly. This is why Taurus is my all time favorite sign. Her boyfriend is extremely lucky to have her as a girlfriend I swear. And since she's a fellow introverter, she understands me almost to the point of more than everybody in the world, and respects me too. And you can't beat that. She's the only one that I can think of that brings clarity, ease, compassion and understanding.click to expand

@puzzlepieces
100% with you on that.
i'm all for helping people overcome issues but enabling can be dangerous and ultimately will do more harm than good for the other person. i like these two quotes about what it truly means to help "heal" someone:![]()

she sounds really cool. it's not everyday we come across people who understand us in a way that's magical.
i honestly hope you find another woman just like her. 🙂
just keep on being your authentic self like you are now and you'll attract people who are on the same vibe as you.

Having some variety of self-awareness is definitely preferable to operating ones life in ignorance.What exactly do you feel is necessary to offer that you're not offering?click to expand
