      I really love animal and dogs especially and i found it nice that you try to help them. But this way - bringing dogs from other lands to the land, where are every day are about 5500 dogs put to sleep (acc. Best Friends Animal Societyl), because nobody wants them - it seems kind of not really efficient way....but still better care than dont care at all.....just wanted to mention it....

      I’ve lost so many friends because of this in the last 5 years. Everyone see’s me as this cutthroat person because I’ve ghosted friends of years, but what they don’t understand is that I chose to get away from a disrespectful person. I’m all about the respect. Never would I bring up my friends’ flaws or saw anything unkind to them. It’s not my place. It’s nobody’s place. It’s insane how it’s so hard to find people that will lift you up these days.

      @@jjm8224 for me, this is good for new relationships or if you're establishing these boundaries for the first time in an old relationship
      I first keep my distance. Don't hang out as much w them, don't be as available, depending. If they never ask, never notice somethings off, or ignore it by changing the subject hoping you'll forget about it, that means they're unaware or not conscious enough to care how they treat people and do you really wanna be close to someone like that?
      If they do notice, they ask and are defensive and it's impossible to resolve without compromising what you're trying to communicate....that's a bad sign imo..and I would keep my distance.
      now, if they want to reach out to you, because they notice something's off...and they ask, "hey did I do something to offend you?"..I would answer honestly. If they listen and are not defensive...that's a good sign they're good friends to keep around b/c you can both work through it and maybe next time, you'll feel more comfortable bringing it up right away. All just my opinion. Hope this helps.
      Good quality people are hard to come by, it can be lonely but it's so important to know your worth.

    Last year I started to push my shy ass into no loger forcing myself to go events/parties/places I didn't want to go just because people insisted or because I was afraid someone would get mad at me. I told myself that I should not suffer just because I feared rejection. Surprise surprise: no one got mad.

    Boundaries accomplished so far: 1. I've changed my number this year. Broke off my 2 yr engagement (he cheated..again) 2.Took a 2 week break away from my phone after the number change, it felt Amazing. 3. Called out my classmates for ignoring me in our clinical psych groupme chat after missing a day of class. It went hella awkward but I reported that to the professor, so she was willing to personally work with me afterwards. I added that in there because it was a big step for me to talk about it rather than hold everything in.
    New lessons from those boundaries: 1. Im no longer accepting guys who arent equally yolked as me. 2. My mental health is priority and needs to be checked in, if im not feeling okay I shouldnt let others invalidate that. 3. Lastly, I'm learning to accept and be comfortable with myself because I'm the only who has my back. Its taking time and this isnt an easy journey, there are some slip up moments but the progression is well worth it.

    My boundary is to STOP reaching out/making plans with a "friend" I have who rarely ever reaches out to me, and flakes often. I have brought this to her attention more than once, and all I get is excuses. And because of social media, I constantly see her out with other friends, so it's not like she's staying at home doing nothing. Moral of the story: if someone wants to spend time with you, they will!

    I'm not giving out free (unappreciated) advice anymore. People always come to me with their problems because they think I have my life together (which I do in a lot of ways, but like, I don't have all of the answers either) but then they just ignore my advice and use me as an emotional dumping ground. From now on, unless a person has PROVEN to me that they value what I have to say (good or bad), they're not getting at the wealth of knowledge inside this mind, lol.
    When people come crying to me with their problems, my response will be "I'm sorry that's happening to you. I hope things work out."

He often purposefully does things to make me jealous, he will lash out on the tiniest things ever like stuff nobody would take seriously, he gets very paranoid with me like I am doing things behind his back when I am loyal. He makes it seem like I am the one causing all the problems in the relationship when I’m sure I’m not because I try to maintain the peace as much as I can, but then I think it might be my fault so it gets confusing. He loves very hard though like the way he cares and puts in effort and everything is so nice and I don’t wanna leave him.

      @@salehaxox7381 don’t hide your emotions from him show him how his behaviour makes you feel because us with bpd have a lot of empathy when we can physically see how our behaviour has made the person on the receiving end to feel because a lot of the time (maybe just me) we don’t realise how awful the words were coming out of our mouths. Also I/we will want you’s to be sad too and feel the emptiness we can feel. I would say he is lashing out at small things because he has a permanent anger inside him (remember most of us developed bpd because of something bad). I’m so sorry but I don’t know what advice to give you other than be there for him but don’t bow to him either. If he really is talking shit tell him straight. Try and see things in black and white like he does and never say nasty words back to him even if he has said them to you because we can be poking for that and it reevaluates are thoughts of being unwanted and unneeded.

    The thing with ppl pleasers is they attract alot of users, abusers & narc types. And they are great at manipulating & shaming you. I have seen lots of videos on how to stop ppl pleasing but not any that tell you what to do when you stop. How to handle the guilt, the shame & fear of losing ppl. How to handle upsetting & disappointing those you love, care about. This is often why ppl do not stop even though it hurts them. How to handle conflict. Even if they do stop they fall right back into it. I have a friend that is a ppl pleaser. She overextended herself for ppl who would not even throw her a bone. And I have seen what she avoids by ppl pleasing.

    Kim wanting to come off grounded, humble, level-headed...is so everything but. I don't understand people still falling for this. She is the definition of a narcissist and stands for everything wrong with it: self-centered, selfish, greedy,...
    The Kardashians have collectively decimated a whole generation of girls who look up to them, normalizing sexualisation, shallowness, and silly, unreachable beauty standards.
    I prefer to look up to a confident Shallon that also has flaws and admits having some and is more relatable than whatever Kim is trying to sell me.

She'd be much more respectable and relatable if she really accepted her body and the flaws that she can't even camouflage with surgery.

      I am 30 years old and I can confidentially say that the Kardashians ended a decade of teenagers aspiring to be so unnaturally thin it creates eating disorders. Prior to the Kardashians circa 2000-2006, Nicole Richie, Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, Mischa Barton were the celebrity bodies that young women aspired to have. And I can say that because I was a teenager during that time. You need money, be 18+ to have the plastic surgery that the Kardashians have…. Most teens cannot afford that… so they go to filters or photoshop…. But eating disorders… nope, you can create that at any age for free and obviously much more detrimental to health.

I swear sometimes I hear your voice in my head when I’m contemplating a (usually bad) decision, telling me to do better😂. My own older sister and I have a terrible relationship, and your videos helped me when I would struggle with that because it was like you filled that space. My partner teases me all the time that a lot of my opinions echo you, because you’ve been such a shaping force in my life and world outlook. So TLDR is you helped shape me into who I am today, and I appreciate you. Keep being awesome💜

    My biggest shift in life was listening to my body. Yeah, I was so focused on what was happening everywhere else but with me. Oh I was good with my emotions and how I felt but not with my body. It started with just me asking my body how I felt. It took practice but I was able to locate pain and act on it. Then my body trusted me more and revealed more. That sounds groovy but it's true. Ok, now I'm old and I just discovered I have fibromyalga which is really bad. Guess what? I'm on top of it and not really at risk because of it. I'm in the practice of responding to my body and it tells me what I need.

    One boundary I can set today is taking time to process and release my emotions in a healthy way, to leave any negative emotions or energies in a present moment rather than drag it to the future.
    I honestly have a lot of growing respect for Kim after hearing this. I was team Kim ever since this whole divorce drama started but she's honestly such an inspirational person and someone who I've seen actually grow from fame. Other celebrities have also done so but since I've followed Kim K for a long time, I can really see it from her.
    Also, so glad you had a great time on the DR trip!

    Yesterday was the last time I answered my phone for work related matters on my off days (I work 50%).
    For what? To get to know that my creative work was not pleasing enough to someone of the company… ruined totally my evening, and today I still think about it. And the worst part of it is that, he told me that it wasn’t urgent and that he was going to write me an email about it. 🤦🏼‍♀️ Monday will set my boundaries. Thank you!
    Ciao Shallon, grazie per i tuoi video ❤️

    Some of my friends from college lately they arrange to go out and I'm always the last to find out (they don't ask me if I am free or where I want to go, they arrange it by themselves and they just announce it to me). Usually my best friend is the one who invites me to go with them, in the past it wasn't like that. I don't think they do it intentionally to ghost me, they just don't care about me. In the beginning I got angry and sad but then I started watching Shallons channel systematically and I have to say that she helped me a lot, now honestly idgf about them. But I'm afraid that they might ruin the relationship I have with my best friend because if they go out regularly then I'm afraid we won't find time for eachother. Also one of these girls texted me to check if we have common classes, in the beginning I was happy because I thought she send me this message unconditionally but when I thought about it I understood her intentions, she works and she can't attend the lectures so will definitely ask me for my notes. Keep in mind that this girl who texted we used to be close but now as I said before she doesn't care to hang out with me. So what do you think I should do? I don't want to give her my notes but I'm afraid I might sound rude and she will get mad and badmouth me to others

    There's a fine line between Doing everything I can to succeed no matter the cost, and wanting others to succeed. It's been a common philosophical/economic paradox since the 17th century. The dominant way of thinking has been "when everyone acts in their own self interest, all of society will benefit". This worked when we all lived in Feudalism and all we had was our farm and family we looked after. But in the complex society we're in now, self sacrifice and compromise is far more advantageous.
    We're all interconnected, in a globalized world whether you like it or not, unlike anytime in all human history. At the end of the day, if you want your life to be better, you have to support and uplift your neighbors, your community, and being a narcissist is not how you go about doing that. Remember, the 1 percent elites want you to be divided, so they can reap all the spoils from your hard work. Don't give in to them, all the glam and riches they promise you, you're far better off focusing your limited energy and time into people around you, the people in your reality. People like Kim and all these other celebs live on a totally different universe that only exists because of hard working people like you and the attention they get.

    Omg this reminds me of my relationship a few years ago. He was sooo excited to show me off, tell everyone about me, said things like “you’re too good to be true” then slowly things got different. I had a car accident and lost my license for 6 months and he freaked out, called me a basket case and said he wasn’t sure if he wanted to be together anymore. Lol. Of course I already was moved in paying for more than half the bills and he wanted to “just be two people getting our lives together who live together” I said ok but he didn’t wanna date others…🤔 After three years I finally left and am so glad I did. Never thought of him as a narcissist because he seemed to hate himself so much and I can totally see that now. Didn’t realize narcissists can have low self esteem.

    Honestly, Kim had her kids with a somewhat talented guy, so some interesting genes there, and now she can relax and enjoy her millions that she worked for. Her kids will inherit from both parents, she does not need Kanye, plenty of fresh men out there for her to play with. I doubt she suffers for one bit.

    Promise to Self: I will not hold myself back in order to please others. I try to be kind and compassionate with people at the expense of my peace. I try to understand others so deeply and try not to blame them for the way they treat me/others, but in reality they have no right. There's always a reason/explanation but I do not owe anyone anything, ESPECIALLY NOT my peace. I wish the best for others and I hope that they prosper from their hard times, but I will not allow them to mistreat me just because they don't know any better. I deserve better and I am giving myself better now.

    I completely understand about the love for dogs. I wasn’t a dog person not long ago but right before my mom passed from covid last year my husband gave me a puppy. At first it was crazy and even contemplated on re-homing him. The puppy phase was hard and I didn’t know what I was doing while I was still grieving losing my mom. After watching many training videos and lots of patience he’s everything to me. He saved my life and has helped me tremendously. I volunteer at our local animal shelter and there’s not been one day that I don’t cry. I donate what I can to rescues. I simply love dogs now.

    We don't know kim of course but I don't know if she's a narcissist. I more get the vibe she CAN be mean and dramatic and she's definately vain, but she can also be genuinely calm, kind and open. I also think she's really hard-working and has a genuine interest in law aside from just wanting publicity. My heart goes out to kanye because he's not having an easy time in this separation but he also caused kim a lot of stress (though I suppose it went both ways). I pray things get better.

    To me it is not making a border, but the opposite, letting myself act freely. Not holding up my energy, but letting it flow.
    Recent example:
    I think that it's right to do certain activities together with my husband: to visit places, going on trips etc. Last year I was waiting for my husband to take the initiative. He knows I'm into skiing, he said that it would be good to go skiing together. But he didn't actively follow those words. When the day came he seemed not very interested. And it felt wrong to me to make him follow me, or to go alone. So I stopped myself.
    But I don't want to do this anymore. This winter I'm going skiing on my own, and not waiting for him to get morally ready. And no, it doesn't make me a bad wife.
    I feel so better, my body is stronger, I'm more emotionally stable, more energy is flowing through me, I care for myself better, my creativity went up.
    So I will continue being more brave and open, letting myself do what's meaningful to me.

I tell her it’s all in how we talk about it and all topics are important, we can’t compare but we can be smart of on how we deliver information on our platform to show its importance while being confident we are making a positive difference in this world. I recorded and shared just the clip of you asking for a billion dollars for dogs with her- AMAZING BTW!!!
