Day 4712: Intimacy Issues

Posted on November 26, 2025 by Ann Koplow

In my Coping and Healing groups, people have been talking about intimacy issues.

I told yesterday’s group that most people have intimacy issues and that it takes courage to work on intimacy issues, in group and elsewhere.

I also told them I was rewatching one of my favorite movies, Lars and the Real Girl, which is all about intimacy issues.

Do you see intimacy issues in my images for today?

I suspect that, like many of us, the Daily Bitch has intimacy issues.

When I search for “intimacy issues” on YouTube, I find this:

… and this:

Thanks to all who helped me create this intimacy-issues post, including YOU!

Day 4197: Looking

Posted on June 29, 2024 by Ann Koplow

Here’s looking at you, kid.

Without looking up the answer, what movie is that quote from?

My dear friend Janet (whom I met looking at films at Boston University in the 1980s and who was looking at my concert of original songs four weeks ago today) was looking at that very quotable movie yesterday, which I found out by looking at Facebook.

Besides great movies and dear friends, guess what I love looking at?

Apparently the Daily Bitch doesn’t mind looking at dust.

As I find out every day, there are so many different ways of looking at the same thing!

Here’s what I’m looking at when I search for “looking” on YouTube.

No matter what is going on in the world, I love looking at cats.

What are you looking at?

Thanks to all who are looking at this daily blog, including YOU!

Day 2091: Open with care

Posted on September 22, 2018 by Ann Koplow

When I open, with care, every new blog post, I also open, with care, my photo app.

Today I care to open with this photo:

I open my car door with care and I also open with care other things, including:

My mind.
My heart.
My mouth.
My eyes.
Every blog post.
Therapy groups.
Meetings.
Communication.
Presents.
Books.
Conversations.
Songs.
Poems.
Emails.
Packaging.
My laptop.

What do you open with care?

I shall now re-open my photo app with care.

“I’m not anti-social” (displayed with care on those socks, above) is an interesting way to open a conversation.

Note that I opened my list of favorite movies with “Singin’ in the Rain.” I’ve opened up, here, about how much I love musicals. Today, I opened my eyes and thought, “I’m seeing Hamilton today!!!”

I now open YouTube with care, looking for relevant music to share.

Later today, I shall open WordPress with care to see how people open their comments.

I open each blog post with care and close it with gratitude, so thanks to all who helped me create this open-with-care post and — of course! — YOU.
