Is there an app to use on iPhones? I was thinking for a while to switch to it, but I don’t know what could I use for iPhone to access the emails.

"Love in the Time of Cholera" by Gabriel García Márquez, and all of his books. Such a different way of writing.

So why keep men out of commenting? I mean, it is a public space, they can read it. I agree that they have to be respectful, as we also should, but supportive men are to be celebrated, not silenced.

Oh, I did not know we are women only. And how would we know the gender of the poster?

Thanks for the link, interesting read( I read the transcript). A section here:

VOLPE: Yeah. Yeah. Like Harris said, it's an easy solution. And you know, speaking of, like, some of these people, like Andrew Tate, like, their messages of, like, you know, you need to have women around you only to dominate them. And, like, those sort of messages, I think, are very appealing for men who feel like their place in the world is being threatened. And so it's very easy to say, like, oh, yeah, like, maybe they just need a girlfriend or a friend and, like, they'll be better.

And I think that maps neatly onto the way that we socialize boys and men, too, to sort of value that one romantic relationship, and, like, that is the thing...

This might be one of the reasons. But it is interesting that the survey says it is only 1% less of women than men feeling lonely. Would be interesting to know the country too. Not all societies are the same, and in some friendships between men are similar in connection like between 2 women.

Yeah, I gave up on it and do not miss the headaches.

Oh yes, I was going to say crowd. But I think it is actually noise. Unless it’s birds and bees, rain and wind…

Regarding the fertility, well, I wish I have known more stuff about it when I was younger. I always had a chaotic menstrual cycle, but I did not pay to much attention to it. Now I have an age, and we are trying for a baby if it works out, I would have loved to have a normal cycle already. I would highly recommend the book Real Food for Fertility by Lily Nichols. What I discovered there, in my case, I ate too little protein, I probably need more magnesium, iodine and stuff like that. I made some changes in diet, supplements and focused on sleeping better, moving more, stressing less, but it is a journey. And when you have an age, time is scarce. So better to be informed and do things about it, so that one is healthy and has also a smooth period-menopause and menopause.

Sounds like how toxic relationships start.

Take care of your reproductive system even if you do not want to have kids. A healthy reproductive cycle means you are healthy.

Try not to stress about small things and prioritise sleep.

Don’t settle for a “meh” partner, learn how to be happy alone and the right partner will probably come, even if later in life. You can receive love and affection even if it is not romantic. Invest in time with friends and families (except the toxic ones).

Gorgeous! Good job!

 

I started using Radio Garden app to listen to my favourite radio stations, but I would like to explore more. I am mostly interested in music, maybe with a bit of talking, and music that ages well, not the kind if radio that has the latest of the latest.

For now my favourites are:

Die Neue FM 107.7 Germany Kiss FM Spain Magic FM Romania

I am interested in music in other languages too, not only English. A good mix.

 

I made my first order on otto.de a few days ago. I even installed their app, as I had Amazon app before, so it is easy to see my orders and invoices. It worked excelent, I found what I needed. What I was pleasantly surprised with, was that I did not need to enter a payment card. I just made my order, things came in 2 batches, different days, and I have about a month to pay them.

When I went to pay them, you have the option to pay each one, or all of them at once. I chose all, I’ve got a QR code, scanned it with my bank app and made the transfer. Painless and not using anything US made. Well, the phone I am on and the iPad…but you know what I mean, no VISA/Mastercard, etc.

And from what I heard, they have stricter rules of who can be a merchant on their website, compared to Amazon.
