I don't know if it's just me, but I've always felt a lot more embarrassed talking about failed friendships than failed relationships. A romantic breakup can happen for a number of reasons that don't have anything to do with you. But if someone doesn't want to be your friend, they just plain don't like you, which is a much more brutal rejection IMO. The thing is though, I know hardly anyone who hasn't gone through a friend breakup. For proof please read this, and this and this. Friendships come and go. You grow, you change, you fall out, you maybe make up. It's all part of life.What I'm trying to say is: you're not alone. This year, I've made new friends, but I've also had some of my worst friend breakups to date. It was shit. But I'm ok. Every day, I get more OK. And believe me, you will be OK too.
The behavior of dinosaurs is shrouded in mystery separated by millions of years. But, judging from these comics, which are simply called "Dinos and Comics," they're much more mentally mature and less cold-blooded than you might've thought! There's much to learn from the conversations and thoughts that these reptiles have: they observe the absurdity and paradoxes of mental illness, share their emotions openly, and last but not least, they know how to comfort each other and inspire positive feelings. The comic inadvertently makes you wish these types of mentally evolved dinosaurs had survived to this day, because we need them more than ever. But in a sense they are here, and with us, sharing nuggets of wisdom through a few comic panels that this wonderful collective created. Without further ado, forget about your problems for a moment, and immerse yourself into something that the creators call "Dino Therapy." Enjoy!
Merriam Webster dictionary defines a meme as an idea, behavior, style, or usage that spreads from person to person within a culture. And it’s no secret that they have become the unofficial fuel of the internet. From Bernie’s mittens and Pence’s fly to the year 2020 and the ship stuck in the Suez Canal, everything gets turned into a meme. And while they’re often fun and give us a much-needed cringe fix, sometimes they get a little harsh and cross the line.
Anyone can have a happy relationship if they put in the work. Sometimes the small things like what you say to your partner on a day to day basis really matters. Because according to experts and research, couples in happier relationships tend to say…
Realizations that I’ll be sharing here. Mainly, that having no friends (has) a lot to do with authenticity, or the lack thereof in my case.
