Is anyone else completely not surprised by DC's being "sub"?

Charlatan?

Uh, you're either supposed to complain about censoring or over-analyze the meme. What is this clever, amusing comment? Are you sure you're on the right site?

I get the joke, and certainly not all self-help books are good, but also people are unique and at different places in their lives. With just a little introspection one can probably tell which book would be better for them. Maybe they say yes too much and would benefit from learning how and when to say no; or they say no to everything and would benefit from learning to embrace new experiences.

Or, you know, pick one up and thumb through a few pages.

I'm good now, thanks 🙂

Hey bud it sounds like our experiences may have quite a bit of overlap. I think the #1 thing that helps here is learning to have and respect healthy boundaries. Internal and external boundaries allow you to have more fulfilling relationships and feel more fulfilled yourself. These are things that a lot of people kind of implicitly learn from their families, but we weren't so lucky. If you have the option and can find a good therapist, they can help you with this. Otherwise, there are a lot of good books about boundaries that you can probably get from your local library or Amazon.

That's what I did, still have some trouble with IRL relationships though.

I highly recommend reading the rest of the book. bell hooks acknowledges the roles that women play in inflicting the harms on boys and men. Reading that book was the most understood I had ever felt as a cis man who until then didn't really know what feminism was about.
