Gentle reminder that you cannot be vulnerable with everyone.

Gentle reminder that you cannot be vulnerable with everyone.

Everything came out of a bag, a can, or a bottle. Leftover salad put on a high fiber low carb wrap topped with packaged applewood smoked tuna drizzled with sweet onion teriyaki sauce & a side of canned dolmades.

Feeling ashamed that I expressed vulnerability I should not have in a situation I shouldn't have and it ended terribly.

What is a reasonable price to ask for a series 6 GPS + cellular?

It's the 44 screen. It's basically in perfect condition, the only reason I am getting rid of it is because I found an open box 11 with longer battery life and sleep apnea detection. I was also sick of charging it every day and it didn't always last a full day. I need to be able to wear one when I'm asleep, too.

Anyway, what do you think is a reasonable price if I include the charger and a band vs band without charger?

Thank you!

Girl Dinner on the floor tonight. Someone gave me kindness I didn't deserve and I can't stop crying

I have not cried in a good long while and I actually thought my medication took away my ability to cry or feel deeply for a bit there and that maybe I'd gone flat. Yet here I am, hours later, still crying into my canned grape leaves, organic dried mango, and sour jellybeans.

Anybody else go batshit crazy when switched from 200-300? Asking for a friend

Am I really this insane or do I need to contact my doctor right away? Lol

A spring mix salad with Mirepoix and Bragg's organic dressing and marinade because I'm too emotionally drained to cut veggies & a handful of gluten free crackers because I don't have croutons. Vanilla Nurri protein shake that doesn't taste like the "melted vanilla ice cream" the reviewers lied about 🙃

ETA: for the dudes in my DMs trying to change my mind, sorry you guys didn't show up in the last 37 years. I think I gave you plenty of time 😂. I'm not interested in emotional connection anymore (at least for the forseeable future). My ex barely touched me while we dated and then handed all that repressed desire to some absolute fucking bridge troll. it's like if you couldn't get turned on for me, but you could get turned on for THAT- what does that say about me? I know it's a weird way to think but that's what my brain says haha Also, it will be very unlikely that I have children due to a condition my doctors left untreated my entire life so I gotta find something to keep me busy. 🤷‍♀️

ETA2: OMG thank you for the award, y'all hyping me up is building up my confidence which has been beaten into the ground 💖😂🤣

FINAL BOSS ETA: thank you for all the awards and encouragement. I got the HPV vaccine in my 20s and I'm getting the new and improved version soon, per my doctor's recommendation. I will be very safe. My sexless relationship made me feel super insecure (and the insecurity didn't even start there), so when men flirt with me I have a hard time believing them. Some guy kissed me last year and I spiraled 🤣 All of you telling me to get it made me think of that subway card you punch when you buy something and then eventually get a free sub... like I should have a s!ut punch card from ages 30-44 and punch it out as I go Lmaoooooooo

▲ 48 r/BigSur

(37/F solo traveler)

First let me start out with visiting Big Sur has been a goal of mine since 2012. A close friend of mine lives about 7 hours from Big Sur and I'm visiting them this summer. Friend decided they no longer want to do the Big Sur trip and I was pretty devastated. I do a lot of experiences alone in life and this was something I was looking forward to sharing with someone I care about.

Rather than let resentment build up, I just decided to do the trip by myself and subtract a few days from my visit with my friend. I rented a place in Carmel-by-the-Sea for one night (the same day I get into town after the 7-hour trip from San Diego).

I know I won't be able to do a lot in 1 day, but my plan is to get to Carmel by late afternoon. Check out a few things in Carmel then go back to the hotel before dark. Rest, then start my 1 day in Big Sur.

If I have less than a day at Big Sur, where are the safest and most memorable places I can go as a solo female traveler in Big Sur SP? I really want to include Pfeiffer beach in my itinerary.) Are there any specific dangers I need to be aware of as I travel the coastline from San Diego to Big Sur?

How can I ease my family's worries about me doing this part of the trip alone?

Thanks!

Edit: NP to SP for the particular folks
