Hi SBK ?


I'm sorry, that is hard to understand. It is humiliating to you if it were publicly known? Or it is humiliating to be publicly known as a person which has this property or done this action? Or is it publicly known, you find this humiliating, but nobody else knows that it was you?
Logically, it should not feel humiliating at all, since nobody know about it, and if they took part of that information they would still not know who it is about.
But emotional responses are seldom based on logic, and I can't stop feeling humiliated, ashamed and disgusted about it, even when I know that it is only me, and the one who shared that information in the first place (without further explaining who it is about (to the best of my knowledge)) that knows who it is about.

Hmm. Then I visualize the problem more in the hands of that one who knows, as him / her could relate it to your person.

Different possibilities:

1) You did something or are resembling any activity or interest which manifestated. Let's say you did something to simplify this. You did it without intake of consciousness-related drug influence, out of your free individual will. You were not emotionally in uproar or confused:

Then there's no need to feel ashamed. It was a decision and life's full of "bad" decisions, but they are necessary for growth over time, for experiences. Take it as one experience which maybe wasn't good, nor recommended, but took place. Or some proprieties (not property, that was a mistake) which your experiences and knowledge are based upon. After all, each experience is a part of your character, of you.

Or maybe you even wanted this result and are just humiliated about the public knowledge. That's well possible, but then it's not helping to blame you for the situation, it would have to encircle telling the person about it, which couldn't keep it a secret. After all you did everything in your own possibilities to keep it a private decision, aside from telling this other person. As such the best bet would be to not tell anything related to such decisions to another person.


2) Same, but in a state of emotional uproar, as such confused in your own decisions, more prone for faulty decisions:

Then I would say, don't blame yourself for being not all the time in a state of emotional balance. That's normal as well. And if it leads to bad decisions or situations, that's something which everyone around you would've experienced in their life, as well. Quite often. They shouldn't take this as something to blame others for, as long as they are not faultless themself (which they are never).

No living being is faultless, don't let a decision in a situation which you didn't wish / wanted for ruin your mood nowadays. It's the past.


3) Same, but under influence of toxic influences, like alcohol or drugs:

Then you wouldn't be able to decide into a less humiliating decision, if it reaches levels which overtake your logical analytic thinking. It's not called "intoxication" for a cool name.

As well something which everyone around you can connect with bad decisions and situations. Everybody. The only thing you could actually "blame you for" would be the missing self control regarding the amount you consumed. It's still a quite small and self-reinforcing erroneous decision to miscalculate on the amount of consummation, it's something the people around you might do everyday (and that's really unhealthy..).

If you think about this the next time where such a situation occurs, then you might decide against it - as such the experience brought knowledge for healthy decisions in the future.

It's almost as if I were ChatGPT, but I am actually a living being. ?‍♂️ As such this took over ten minutes to write.

@FloofyNewfie
Are you going for a clean s(h)ave in December, or will you just trim it a bit and remain a guy with facial hair?
I intend on letting my beard grow further, I'm curious if I can beat last year's record of 2.5 inches in length. But the mustache, yeah that's getting trimmed back December 1st. It's a bit uneven now anyways.

Thank you for your words.

Actions was by my own choice, and those I feel no shame about. Documentation of those actions was not by my own choice, nor of my knowledge.
I feel ashamed that those actions were documented and, as I found out earlier today, have been accessible by whomever looks where those exist.
Logically, it should not cause any trouble as long as me and the documentation provider leave things as they have been, as some years have passed since those actions took place.

Usually in the spring and summer I'll trim it all to half an inch, but as soon as August hits I'll let my beard grow until the spring when I shave it again. That said, my mustache needs a touch up 1 or 2 times a week otherwise it grows into my mouth. Nothing like the taste of facial hair... Yummy! Lol

Mostly shave with an electric trimmer all 1 to 6 weeks, depends on time and motivation. The mustache is gone in fifteen seconds, as such it gets removed more often. But it would need at least two weeks to grow into my mouth. Fortunately my fur doesn't grow that quickly.

Some times if mustache hair touches my mouth while eating, I just chew it off or tear it out with the teeth.

Yes, is as uncomfortable as one might think (especially plunging it out with exhausting facial grimaces), but it works for curled up hairs which are in your mouth. And it allows a clean intake of your meal without acting with the electric trimmer at a business meeting, as example. :ROFLMAO:

No problem.

Ah, I see - hmm, as long as they are not easily recognizable and as such backtrace-able to your own status quo existence in the present, don't feel that bad about it, really.

In my 18+ youth-adult years (those reach up to 21 for specific law-related topics in DE) I've done some things as well which were not with the acceptable outcome or emotional peace of other peoples in mind. And some were going against what nowadays is as example outlawed by ZV. Never hurt any animal or comparable, that's not the problem.

It were a) different times, different standards, different problems and solutions and b) experience doesn't grow on trees (with a snake).

People have to eat apples to know what those taste like and which problems might follow (digestive tract, as example). People have to think about their own actions, not to prevent every possible reaction by not doing anything with their life.

That would just resemble "fear from living" and not be healthy. Faulty decisions or unwanted outcomes are the norm, but you are you today because of all the positive and negative situations, experiences and actions you did in the past. And all the surprising outcomes, as well. That's what gives you the knowledge to act in balance with your own morals and goals.

None of those I have found would be able to be used as such.
I only know as, well, setting and surrounding of your own previous actions are easy to remember.

I will just see them as what they are, documentation of past events of an unknown individual, and not think about them further.

Oh shoot, that reminds me, I probably need a Christmas themed avatar. Hmm... the last 3 years I created one in GIMP by hand. I'm tempted to go lazy this year and use AI.

I could always generate an AI one, and then once I get some time create one myself to replace it.
