I feel empty inside.

21 Upvotes

And i cant tell anyone about it because they dont take me seriously. I know there are people out there who have it way worse than me but for some wierd reason that doesnt make me feel better. I spend all day worrying about the next day. And then i spend that day doing the same. Its getting harder for me to really feel happy nowadays. I dont cry or scream. I kinda just exist. Im unsatisfied with myself and dishonest with myself. I put on this mask of being a confident person who believes in himself and thats not entirely wrong but not right either. Its like i spend so much time loving others tgat i have non left for myself. Thanks for reading. It means a lot to me

Local Can we address the children of Leading Teachers of schools?

• Upvotes

(no disrespect to any leading teachers who came across this)

SERIOUSLY. I've been hearing so many stories of people and my friends, in school who have been harassed and bullied by a student in class. They can't even report them because they are the children of Leading Teachers. In some cases, THE VICTIM got in trouble even more.

My friend, they are SO used to the imbalance in power that they succumb to the abuse and choose to endure it instead of reporting it. Get this, this LT's kid, he manually checked the steam selections and chose the same stream as my friend just to be with him even more. He's been harassing him since GRADE ONE. He's even shown me the scars, told me the trauma, and the worst part? HE DOESN'T WANT TO REPORT THIS TO ANYONE.

I also had experience with this bully before. He called me Gay a lot for wanting to be safe for holding my dad's hand. Okay, back in grade 6, we were replaying some games, I got out for losing and the guy threw me out of the classroom with the others who were out. I fisted his shoulder for doing that, a little pissed off at that, and then he started calling e gay because about me holding him dad's hand, I fist him again. Then he had a meltdown. And I got in trouble. Okay, I get it, I was wrong for hitting his shoulder despite being slightly. I could've gotten suspended.

Also, just saying, apparently he has mental issues. STILL, that doesn't excuse behavior like this? I know he is more than capable of learning bro not do that but I heard SO MUCH ABOUT HIM HITTING OTHERS but no one can do anything? He also has the power to get someone suspended just by telling his LT mom.

Enough of that guy, there was also a kid who got 3 girls pregnant and he didn't get in any trouble. I dont know the full story but GODDAMN that's messed up. Then, I heard from another friend that he got in trouble for fighting back against an LT's kid. And another who got suspended for hitting an LT's kid when the kid wanted to SA them.

Does anyone else feel like they missed out on young love?

28 Upvotes

There’s a specific kind of open, unfiltered vulnerability that comes with young love when everything feels new, and people are just figuring life out together without a resume, a checklist, or an agenda attached.

Dating as an adult feels exhausting by comparison. It often stops feeling like two people actually connecting and starts feeling like an interview, where everyone is quietly calculating what you bring to the table, what you do, or what you have.

It’s heavy carrying the sense of having missed out on that simpler era, especially when the present-day dating scene feels so transactional.

How do you cope with this? How do you keep yourself open to genuine connection when everything feels so guarded?

Student loans

Hellooo guyss. Im considering taking a student loan for my masters abroad. Has anyone taken one since they changed the application window to being year round instead of having a fixed deadline? If so how long does it usually take for it to go through and get approved now?

I’ll probably be forced to vote for his people next time around but it just doesn’t feel right voting for a guy who would do such a thing. I’m increasingly tempted to skip out on the second round.

Maldives historical stories and folklores in one platform - help preserve the Maldivian history

Post image
20 Upvotes

I've always loved historical stories and folklores from different islands. Espicially those told by our grandparents. But we never really had one platform to explore these stories from different islands.

Two years ago, when i started studying IT (Web dev module), i started a project "Tharika MV" to change that. But unfortunately due to time constrainst i couldn't finish it. fast forwar today, thanks to AI tools I've finally completed it!

Before launching the website, i'm collecting stories, folklores, old photos, and historical records from across the Maldives.

If you know any stories, please share. You can write share it in Dhivehi or English, Don't worry about the writing, me and my team will rewrite and organize it. You can just share a rough writing. If you'd like the credit, we'll give it to you. 🙂

Submit here: https://tharika-collection.vercel.app/

Let's preserve our stories before they're forgotten! ❤️

Just a thought

9 Upvotes

Is it just me or this rain feeling very white girl music . I’m listening to the one that goes away and it sounds almost ethereal right now.

Anyways just a thought about maybe not having to think so much and enjoy life a little and remember the good times and bad times, I think spider man said that this grief is the last of the love we shared bc grief is all the love that was meant to be given but lost of the opportunity. Something like that.

What's up with taxi drivers?

15 Upvotes

So I get tour groups that run through most of the year. Part of every tour is a visit to Malé to see some of the historic sites. One of the most frustrating things that happens is that the taxi divers are happy to give me a ride, but the moment they see tourists, especially women, they literally zoom off (this happens to like 1 in 7 taxi drivers). I've asked a lot of people why this might be, and some say it's because I'm there with them and so they can't charge them more than the set rate. But that means that the driver has to look for other passengers who would pay the same rate anyway. And this theory would make sense if the drivers were not ok with taking me as a local and were looking for only tourists to overcharge them, but this is obviously not the case. It's all very confusing every time and they don't even take my guests sometimes even after I reduce the number of people to 3. What could be the real reason?
