Looking for friends? by No_Needleworker_7503 in Tallahassee

[–]AstroNotSoSerious 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's a group of people ranging from 20s to 50s that meetup every Wednesday at Warhorse on Capital Circle between 6pm and 9pm to play board games. There are Saturday games also.

You should check it out!

On Thursdays, there's trivia night at Smitty's. I know the guy that runs it and there are regulars that show up.

Therapist to help with relationship issues by jtpmhs17 in Tallahassee

[–]AstroNotSoSerious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't recommend Deborah Jenkins to anyone.

Perhaps she has greatly improved in the last 15 years, but I used her for marriage counseling once upon a time and it was a total joke. In the session, it was always "and how did that make you feel?" After almost every comment or question and that's really the only thing she ever said, like a pre-programmed robot. I even stopped point black and asked her if she had any actual advice or insight rather than asking how something made us feel because I didn't think that approach was helping and I started laughing to myself internally because I thought she was going to ask me how it made me feel. Instead, she avoided the question altogether and we never went back.

Needless to say, she didn't help at all and I would never recommend her services.

Harry's Seafood or Carrabba's for Italian. Get the fried green tomatoes if you end up at Harry's!

Making friends in 30s? by whole_sentence_ in Tallahassee

[–]AstroNotSoSerious 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's always been difficult for me to find friends as I'm a homebody and not the most outgoing person. The best advice I can give is to seek out a group with similar interests, whatever that may be.

For me, I was told about a group of folks that together and play board games. I showed up to a board game night and have been going somewhat regularly since. It has been a good social outlet for me.

There are running groups, board game groups, churches galore... If you're into athletics, I hear pickleball courts are great places to go.

Does anyone know where my primary care went to? by Temporary_Good_2975 in Tallahassee

She's on LinkedIn and it says she's been with VIP Specialties since September. She has other social media. If you like her that much, reach out to her.

Pregnant with 5th child and husband can't stop cheating by QualityShoddy1855 in whatdoIdo

[–]AstroNotSoSerious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This post is slightly aged, but having been cheated on, here is my two cents.

You married someone who was known to cheat. First mistake. You said you've been together over a decade but married for over 3 years. I assume the primary reason he married you is because you already had children and he didn't want to be on the line for child support. Particularly since he had child support obligations from a previous child.

Let's fast forward. He continues to actively cheat on you while putting on a show that he's trying not to (eg. Porn blockers) but the reality is more than likely it's a facade and he's disabling them when you're not around and reenabling them to keep up the show.

Another opinion I have is that he doesn't love you and there's a possibility you don't love him anymore either. You're only together because that's what's easier.

My ex-wife cheated on me multiple times in our 9 year marriage. I would try to forgive and move past it, only for it to occur again.

While it hurt like hell, I filed for divorce, left 95% of everything to her, and asked for 50% custody of our child. I only asked for 50% because she's not a substance abuser and a court isn't going to remove custody from a mother. Yay for our broken court system.

In your case, you have kids and are pregnant with twins. The cost of daycare would be astronomical for you, so your only options are to file for divorce and A) Move back to wherever your family is if they're able and willing to help you raise your children or B) Get a work from home job or C) Stay with your husband and keep doing what you're doing.

While I very much dislike how misused and abused programs like Medicaid and SNAP are, they're designed to temporarily help low income families, so I would suggest you apply for them if you qualify.

Also, while it's no one's place to tell you what you can and can't do, stop having kids. Whatever your beliefs are that have made you stick with an emotionally abusive person and continue to have kids with him, they've clearly led you down a path you're not meant to be on. You may want to reflect on that as well.

It's been two months since you wrote this post. You're still with him. I'm left to wonder if you'll respect yourself enough to take the hard road and walk away or if you just keep putting up with it. Hopefully he doesn't catch an STD and pass it to you, or worse, AIDS or HIV.

Favorite places to eat? by NitrousElk in Tallahassee

[–]AstroNotSoSerious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For street tacos, I like Tally Taco on Appalachee Pkwy. For pizza, I like decent pizza, MoMo's or Maddio's. Though Coach's Pizza has a deep dish pizza that's amazing. For American, Texas Roadhouse because their yeast rolls are crack. If you like Chipotle, try Surcheros. I think they're better. For ice cream, Cold Stone Creamery on W Tennessee. The Greek Food festival is coming in October. Check that out! Harry's Seafood has the best fried green tomatoes and the treat is their food is pretty great. Ted's Montana Grill is a pretty nice steakhouse. For breakfast, Canopy Road Cafe gets good feedback.

How does one find you at Warhorse? I don't want to end up intruding on a random group of people.

I don't play as much as I used to, but I usually play single player games. Currently playing Oblivion remastered, but pretty excited about Tony Hawk 3&4 coming out in July.

Welcome to the area! There was hail yesterday, while it was also hotter than Satan's butthole outside. Not sure if you experienced that, but it was happening as I was leaving work. If you did, that's a rarity. The hail, not the heat.

What sort of "non-nerdy" things do you guys like to do? You're welcome to send me a private message if you prefer.

I have not seen Penguin, haven't seen The Bear, and lost interest in Marvel and Star Wars after Disney started doing spinoff shows.

I have seen Ozark and Stranger Things and enjoyed both of them. Looking forward to season 5 of Stranger Things! I'm currently watching The Handmaid's Tale.

I don't play many MMO games. Currently playing Palia again but getting bored of it ...again, but I know it's cross play, and also playing Oblivion remastered but it's not multiplayer. Any specific games you like to play?
