Trying to be nice. I really dislike the Reddit style aggressive comments. If you are rude I will block and ban you.

  • Many muslim families don’t allow dating, go straight to marriage. Being in the West doesn’t change one’s religion. That’s kind of a bozo comment. Assuming you can figure that out after a year, your question is because your feelings are hurt. I dated a Viet girl in high school that similarly didn’t want to tell her family since her father didn’t allow it. It felt like she didn’t care as I did. So I understand your feelings.

    Are you gonna marry her? Would you convert for her? Then things will change. If not this is how it is.









  • Thanks that’s very helpful! I like how you approach lists. Even breaking them down sometimes feels like too much.

    It’s interesting that you make the comparison to addiction. Quitting alcohol and starting a task that feels too big honestly does feel quite similar. Maybe because they’re both linked to dopamine?

    I find if I start and get in the zone I can do anything. Also, weird side note I find after I have a drink in the evening I weirdly have a ton of motivation but then am slightly impaired lol
