  • How to make my instagram art account cohesive?

    Hi! How to create cohesive IG account if one is drawing figures, painting landscapes, florals and abstract using different color schemes and media? I don't want to resign to one style or only show fraction what moves my work forward. How to do this? Should I post drawing, painting, drawing, painting, or should I post batches of 10 images (ie: 10 drawings, 10 paintings)?

    I would like to be honest about my art and what I do, but also keep my account visually pleasing. Any advice? Thank you!

  • When will I get maternal instinct?

    I've been waiting for a while, but it is not coming, my clock is ticking, I'm 33. I didn't have a healthy relationship with my mom and she left me for 7 yrs when I was 12, she was abusive and bipolar, told me many nasty things how she regrets being my mother, there was lots of abuse that made me stronger than most people I know. I still love her in my own way as I believe there is good in her as well. I think sad past is blocking me from developing any maternal instincts. What if I deliver and regret it the second it happens, or fail miserably, or feel I lost my life to some pooping and screaming creature that will send me to assisted living when I'm old? My family says it is the biggest mistake to have kids because there are too many people anyway. I won't get any help from my or my hubby's family. My mom already said not to count on her for help and that I should have an abortion if I get pregnant. However, when I see kids I get that fuzzy feeling of innocence and joy.

  • Would you keep this politically charged friend or run?

    My BFF of 16 years is not tolerating my husband's political views. They don't have any political discussions but yet she is very aggressive about it. Because of that I was disinvited from my own birthday that she was organizing for me on the beach. My hubby is tolerant of any political views and you can have conversation about anything with him. He was always respectful etc.

    Also my other friend told me that when she got drunk, she got very angry said that she will "f*ck him up" for his views when she sees him next time. I don't think she remembers what she said because she blacked out, I wasn't present in the situation. I don't think she knows that I know nor she remembers what she said. I saw her few days before that and she was acting nice and normal like we still are seeing each other on the beach for my bday.

    There was also other situation a month ago where we have been planning a group trip for 5 moths. She was ok 3 hours before she arrived, then all the sudden she pretended she doesn't know us, because my husband wore a trump hat. She was sleeping at the camp site next to us, didn't say "hi", didn't stop by, she wrote me some angry texts at night when she got drunk again. A week later, we had "the talk" to clarify (initiated by me, not her!) and it seemed to me that we were cool until my bday surprise. I hate to give up on my BFF but I don't know how to reason with her anymore (she's 38).

  • When losing weight do fat cells shrink or disappear?

    I read somewhere that fat cells are shrinking in volume during the weight loss process, meaning the number of them is the same. Also fat cells are dividing once they achieve 4 times their mass into more cells that's why previously fat people have trouble keeping that weight off because they carry many more fat cells. Is this true? Don't they die off after some time?

  • Is it ok to leave someone behind when hiking?

    I went with my best friend and her hubby for a hike on a path which I don't know. I was excited for that trip that we will make nice memories together and check out some new places. They hike in a very fast pace and I can't keep up with them. I have an average hiking speed, they hike like hounds like it is a race where your life depends on it on who makes it first to the top. I have a medical condition, and extra 50lbs to carry vs. my friend, she knows that. They went ahead and just left me behind, disappeared on the horizon and left me without a map, reception or idea where I'm going. They said they will wait for me on the trail. It took me 20 minutes to get to them and the moment I did they already rested and went ahead again... I felt it was a bit rude and I didn't feel safe, as there are black bears and not many tourists. I confronted my friend telling her I really felt uncomfortable about this, she responded that everyone wants to enjoy mountains, go in their own pace and their purpose is to get tired and push themselves (talk about fitshaming). She said that nobody should hold anyone back. What do you think?

  • Is it offensive if you untag yourself from pictures of food or places?

    I hate when my friends tag me as a plate of pasta that they just ate or some random jokes they find online. They tag my name and all my fb friends can see it. I find it annoying plus I have more serious people who are my friends and I don't find it mature. My friend tagged me as another meal on the table. I "liked" and untagged myself as I was not in the picture. Then she texted me about it and got offended for it. She took it very personally. (she's 40) After I told her I don't like it and I always untag myself to keep my fb clean, she got passive aggressive with me and said "ok but it is weird".

  • How to deal with friends who love to blow money?

    My besties love hanging out with me BUT it is always in fancy restaurants, wineries or trips. When I offer to meet for a walk, picnic or I invite them to come over for dinner or drinks, they fuss that they want to be where people are in restaurants and bars, ideally with Michelin stars or some presidential level venues. I can't blow $300-$400 per weekend like they do and they refuse to accept it. They live by YOLO philosophy, which I partially share, however that doesn't mean I have to blow all the money I'm making for fancy food and drinks. When I tell them I am on the budget, they call me a cheapo, talk about YOLO and make fun of a fact that I am trying to save up for my first apartment and make a slave out of myself. I am in my early 30s, they are approaching 40s and live from paycheck to paycheck in 1 bedroom rental apartments. How to keep the relationship and/or reason with them without losing my mind?

  • Why I don't have a maternal instinct?

    I'm 30. I'm married. Waiting for my maternal instinct to kick in. I'm disgusted with babies and kids. Many of them are spoiled and not disciplined enough. My friends have kids. I don't see the point. My mom left me for 7 years when I was a kid, she punched me sometimes and since early childhood told me that I ruined her future because she had me and she should have aborted me. She tells me that kids are the biggest mistake to have and to not to count on her when I have one. I should immediately abort as soon as I get pregnant. I got over that but I don't see myself as a good mother. When will I want to have kids?
