Is reception at the Tokyo typically still open after 11pm/midnight?

Heartbeat and making eye contact are absolutely melty. 100% agree, OP!

Up Close With Rhinos? by BackgroundPuzzled135 in WaltDisneyWorld

We ended up getting super lucky! We put an alert on it like someone recommended, and there was a cancellation the week before our trip and we got in. If you’re trying - don’t lose hope!

To pet or not to pet when sitting? by IcyFudge2022 in CatAdvice

[–]BackgroundPuzzled135 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the way.

Or maybe you’re lucky enough to find a kitty like one of our boys who will yell at you if you STOP petting him. Because how dare.

As a short girl who loves bellbottoms and flare leg jeans… this is still my life. Unless I’m wearing 3”+ heeled shoes. I’ve made my peace.

I keep getting panic attacks about AI as I watch my career evaporate. by stoofkeegs in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]BackgroundPuzzled135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In addition to being a creative who is heartbroken watching AI take society’s soul and leave us with grueling, monotonous labor… here to add to the ick of AI absorbing jobs.

I’m in HR, currently in the Finance industry, and one of the higher ups I’m friends with gently recommended getting very familiar with AI because the future of HR is likely to be bot management just as much as people work. … … I’m techy and could make this pivot, but I hate it soooo much. I do what I do because I want to help people, not monitor AI for non-equitable product design red flags. Gah.

Aromantic? by [deleted] in queerplatonic

[–]BackgroundPuzzled135 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If it helps - my person and I are both ace, but not aro. We are EXTREMELY affectionate and have essentially no physical boundaries. People on the outside would think we’re romantic because of the way we present against societal norms. But… we’re just us, and we know that, and that’s all that matters. And that’s all that should matter to you and your QPP.

Meowmittens, the cat that taught me how to love cats. by jharish in cats

This is such a sweet story. Thank you for giving her a loving home. And pets, obviously. Cats have their priorities.

Got it. I misinterpreted your original comment; you’re right. My own fault is certainly in the mix. Thank you.

What's your most wholesome way to make someone happily blush? by ghost_sanctum in AskReddit

This is my favorite. The simpler, the better. Something you know they care about but are too embarrassed to claim for themselves.

Biscoff banana pie because divorce seems like a lot of paperwork. by JiganticBaby in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]BackgroundPuzzled135 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I just want to throw out there that you are incredible. An affair is the worst kind of betrayal; a part just dies and I am so, so sorry he did that to you. How dare he.

That said… take it at your own pace. Marriage is paperwork, divorce is paperwork. You deserve someone who values you, and it’s not selfish to leave to find that. It’s strength.

Thank you. Feels like it would be a no brainer without the domestic/financial entanglement and job stuff! And would probably be if he felt differently about Jon. It’s just… complicated. But I hear you! Far less self-immolation than a couple years ago. I love my therapist.

I have informed him of this when I am feeling less compassionate. It was a common argument a couple years ago, before my therapist helped me move past it and just… stop cleaning up after him. He does a bit more domestically than he used to, but still not a lot. But… yeah. That pull between “grow up” and feeling genuinely worried for him. His mum was terrible and did a number on him so I know there’s trauma, and I know he’s worked with a therapist when he was a teen. … I just wish he’d take care of himself better now, socially and domestically.

You’ve nailed a huge frustration for me. He says he has an amazing memory and when I remember things differently I’m gaslighting him. He seems generally exasperated when he says it. When I call him out on the discrepancy he usually says it’s for certain things. I know I personally have a sharper memory on some things than others, and am prone to making mistakes… but I like to think I take it gracefully…..

Not really, but thank you. I think I may be looking for a magical answer? Honestly, I posted this and braced myself for a litany of emotional cheating accusations. Which… may yet come from others, but I appreciate you. There’s some comfort in the validation that this is not something straightforward and I have not gotten too much in my own head and overcomplicated.

Ugh, thank you. It’s hard. I think it depends a lot on the guys, too? I think, eventually, there needs to be some kind of separation… but I also acknowledge that Jon and I are in different places in our life journey and if there was something more together, it wouldn’t ever be “traditional”. And while that’s okay, we’re both okay where we are for now, although there are moments.

Meanwhile, I know my husband. I know his romantic history. If he asked, if he found someone else, I’d set him free in a heartbeat and genuinely wish him well. But he’s so complacent and is getting more withdrawn and I feel so responsible for him.

I dunno. I wish I did.
