Yeah you already said that.
It's not true, it's pretty selective reading on your part, but you did say it
Why? I doubt you influenced any part of British colonialism, they aren't throwing hatred at you personally.
Colonialism is bad and should be regarded with hatred. Are you internalizing that? You're not the British empire, you don't gotta do that to yourself
A tea pot with an infuser should work just as well, the commenter below mine details the gongfu brewing method a little more than I did, and that's mostly what you're trying to do with the gai wan, the pot itself just lends itself to that method, but the tea pot with infuser will work similarly.
I think this is white tea, so you may want to try brewing it at a lower temperature, around 180°F, for a few minutes.
You can also try brewing it in a gai wan by using about 5 to 8 grams of it, rinsing it once with water just under boiling, then brewing it for 10 seconds at a time, enjoying the tea between successive infusions. It should peel off delicate layers of flavor that way, though you may want to adjust the infusion time and water temp to your preferences.
Edit: yeah it looks like the text says it's White Tea from Fuding, so I wouldn't brew it with boiling water, might kill some of the more delicate flavors and make it bitter. And it doesn't expire. I've heard white tea improves with age and while I'm not sure that's true, it certainly gets more expensive! 😅
I'd recommend the latter method, you can jury rig up a gai wan pretty easily, and once you get used to brewing tea like that, you might not want to buy nearly as many tea bags!
Personally, I like to use the term lllllladies with plenty of L's so they know I'm looking for love.
I think men can often get stuck in ruts where they become their own worst enemies, especially in dating. They have a plethora of media telling them half truths and skewed perspectives that create a feedback loop of negativity and self-fulfilling prophecy. Fuck, I'd be lying if I said I never had similar thoughts.
Even if OP can't escape that today and instead posted this to hear answers that affirm this defeatist ideology, other readers may benefit the good advice others have put in this thread.
Lmao, buddy...
One day I hope you find the confidence you need to love yourself and you can look back on these foolish times with laughter and pride in your growth.
That's great advice. It's really a good tip to feel okay experimenting with different styles until you find one you like. Finding the confidence to do just that will be a good lesson as well.
For what it's worth, I get my soaps and colognes from Barrister & Mann. Creating a signature scent can be a lotta fun and I get a lot of compliments on the ones I wear.
Being a well rounded person is also immeasurably good advice. If you want people to be interested in you, you need to be interesting
