Yes, some friends will be with me when I move the car 🥰

4·3 months agoYou make me feel validated and I want to cry from gratefulness. Thank you, thank you.
Omg I had never heard that line but god knows I’m going to use it lmaoo
As someone suggested, I’ll move the car 1 meter forward and back. I’ll also keep playing with the buttons to build muscle memory.
I’m leaving for a trip but afterwards I’ll ask someone to take the car out of the parking lot (which requires more skill than I currently have) and I’ll try to go around my neighbourhood at unholy hours so I don’t have to face other cars just yet.
The going around the block part will take a long time, but I won’t let anyone pressure me into going fast.

5·3 months agoHuh. I hadn’t thought about simply moving the car a meter forward and back.
Today I’ll spend some time behind the wheel, to see how I feel.
Perhaps tomorrow I’ll do the meter thing! Thanks!
Also, I’m indeed scared of the other drivers. I was a safe driver, but whenever I saw someone on the phone or doing other questionable stuff while driving, my anxiety went off the charts.

3·3 months agoI have a bike (a blessing), but the distance I have to cover is too big and I live in a mountainous area with awful weather. Sometimes I pedal against the wind and I remain stationary lmao

6·3 months agoI’m very grateful for your answer. I’m definitely going to take small steps, and they can laugh at me as much as they want.
At one point my father decided that the best idea was to make me face my fears by forcing me to drive up a mountain, through an old road. This road went both directions but only had enough width for 1 car, and safety fences only at some points.
I went up decently, but when I had to drive down, the cliffs terrified me and a car was coming from the opposite direction.
I don’t remember how I got home, and that was the last time I drove.
I appreciate your concern, thank you, really.

2·3 months agoWhat do you mean with ‘don’t stare at the car in front of you’?










I finally started God of War!!! Got it on a sale and has been in my backlog, waiting for its moment to shine.
And I’m back to Fields of Mistria, because there’s an update due soon.
In the previous weeks (I forgot to participate): Expedition 33, Palworld and Baba is You.
