  • So I started to feel extremely lonely about a month ago. That feeling coincides with falling in love with a person, that is close to me and that person wasn't interested in entering a relationship with me. That alone is something to chew on But that feeling of lack and loneliness stayed even weeks after I talked openly about my feelings for that person. It's not just rejection; it's also that I feel in love for the first time. (I mean violently, past the point of return. I am also a late bloomer.) I desire romantic love now. That is my new need. That article changed my perspective on the matter.

  • Cab you tell me more about that? I don't have experience with non monogamous relationships, but I always assumed that it is exhausting. At least when you don't just sleep with each other but also share your emotions.

  • There have been a couple of debunking videos about stoicism lately. I think there is a danger in the deterministic nature of some teachers to consolidate conservative thinking. But you can also put a progressive spin on it. There are some stoic teachers who tell you how to look at the world from a mainly objective point of view, but act nonetheless. "Yes, I know the world is tuff, yes I am in pain/hurt/weak, but I will do what has to be done anyway." It is a sort of call for action that doesn't depend on motivation.
