@Barzakh yeah. I like your reasoning, its boring but important.
my dopamine baseline must have been increase, that's why I feel bored when I read something informative.
I should do something for this. like quitting short content or something.

@Unimportant-0
Yeah I got your point. Every genre is worth giving shot. I also found some books r interesting and some r boring. I should find what interests me. Ig that's good for starters. Appreciate your pov 👍

@WtfJudith
Yeah now I get it. The words doesn't make any sense when one is bored to read. just finished reading session
I will take a break from non fictional. Ig I'm not ready yet for it. But I like deep work by cal Newport a lot. It was interesting.
I will find one soon. Tho I feel bad for not finishing the current one.

@WtfJudith
Well recently I finished "my Geeta". And after few days of struggle started "super intelligence". The struggle coz I didn't planned well enough for next book.
I believe reading should be boring and hard to aquire for beginners. Nowadays there r a lot of distractions for humans, that is why lots of people find reading hard n boring.
My battle is to be good at this boring task. That's y indulge myself to read audio books. Plus it makes me imagine the scene from my perspective. After reading "the giver" I found there is a movie based on it. I didn't like it after watching trailer. Coz I have imagined the whole story and it was perfect for me. Same with the midnight library and the stranger .
Since it's nnn I am trying to read non fiction lol. Just remember I could have pick the sapienes.

So it's been few months (2 precisely) I have been reading on regular basis. I'm on the way of building reading as a habit. So I'm going easy on me. And I only read for like half an hour daily.

If the luck is with me then I read 10 pages in 30 mins otherwise it be like 6-8 pages. I am wondering what is the "normal" page count. Lemme know what's urs.

Also if u like to share books you have read, feel free to do it. I'm all ears for book suggestions. even though the bucket list is full

@rehka well if they don't hold grudge against you. Consider them friends. But give equal importance as they gave you.

@rehka that's the problem. People say availability is not necessary friends can be friends even if they are not seeing for months or years. But building friendship requires availability. Or at least mutual interests

@BlossomingLove that's y it is important to set some rules. Also it's important to know your boundaries. How would I know if it is "safe" for you.
The problem is what is ur normals. What ur mind has unconsciously set normals. Once u able to change that then might have control over ur desires.

What you have concerned about is ur desires have control over you. That's the most toxic relationship. Every human should try to take control over it. That's real freedom.

I can't answer your question, since I don't know you irl and one should be responsible for their actions. But I can told you why it is important.

It doesn't mean I'm 100% free from my desires. I don't want to. But I'm on a journey to have control over it. So I can be better. This topic is just an attempt to share my journey with people and to put my thoughts into words.

@rehka availability

@BlossomingLove doing it once in a while is ok. By the way u talking I assume it's hard for you to stop it . Then try to make it less frequent. Eventually this impulsive nature will be dormant.
Know ur limits are try to extend them little by little.

@Mizumazu
Off the topic question. Are you Japanese?

@AllAboutGay
What u talking? This is not gay website. Website might support LGBT but it's not

@rehka yup its dead site. Only few (Including me) come here

@moonbike
Sure. I'll
Right now I'm watching berserk (1997). And I'm so pissed of the ending of it. I gotta finish is first for my sanity 😅🤣

@SarahAnn said in Open minded people:

people change ur settings to Only allow chat messages from users I follow so ppl can message u.
we're here to chat after all.

It's weird that this site turned that option on by default

@dece
So u telling us nukes won't destroy lily?

@dece good luck 👍

@Peek_A_Boo I don't have data. Do ur own research n lemme know

@Peek_A_Boo exactly. These behaviors r builded on top of watching. When they stop watching (which is very hard in the beginning when u don't have purpose) the duration would be elongated and the activity will be less rewarding.
Finding purpose is the hard task and walk on it is harder. That's y building focus is important.
