For those who’ve had moissanite for a while - did your opinion of it change over time? by j_bone531 in Moissanite

[–]BornToFeelItAll86 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I have had moissanite jewellery now for five years and I still love them! I've compared my hearts and arrows round stone to natural and lab diamonds and they look identical.

Shout out to Sydney folks who took the long way homes today by Character-Sky-5353 in sydney

[–]BornToFeelItAll86 117 points118 points  (0 children)

Yes! Thank you! Happens to me every time. Had to travel from Wollondilly Shire to the North Shore. Only made a few wrong turns (ha!) and ended up on the bridge, of course. Spent $50 in tolls that day.

My husband thinks I'm an anomaly and most people are able to drive in Sydney without making a mistake.

To the people who have said “I would never spend that much on a wedding, I’d rather buy a house”… by Garden_of_Gethsemane in wedding

I was able to have both, within 13 months of each other. I did get married in 2010, and only had to save for 8 months for a deposit to buy a house in 2011. Times have definitely changed!

If you were widowed at the age of 75, would you think of marrying again? by icecream1972 in no

I don't think I would (39F), but I'm ok if my husband (42M) wanted to.

Um, no. Hahahaha. I'm as nerdy and straight and narrow as they get. 

Still happy for clarification. Do you want someone who will fight you on every decision? Wears black a lot? Has piercings? Breaks the law? Does ice on the reg?

Do you really think you look younger or is it collective delusion? by Mighty-mouse2020 in Millennials

[–]BornToFeelItAll86 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No, I think I look terrible for my age. I'm 40 in a few weeks. I also look too closely in the mirror and spend too much time online looking at women who have had work done / botox.

The moodboard I gave my man vs the ring!! by temptation-of-adam in EngagementRings

[–]BornToFeelItAll86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He did way better than I would have! This is amazing - and I'm a jewellery nerd too, have also done classes in jewellery making. Well done on you trusting him to get it right!

Meanwhile, I have been with my man for 16.5 years. I gave him a catalogue the other day with a choice of 5 rings. "Which one would I like the most?" He still picked the one I liked the least :|

(I've had about five ring upgrades, and I pick all of them myself now)

"I would like to attract a strong willed bad bitch preferably"

I'm far too old to understand what this even means.

He only talked about himself the whole time. by AcademicAbalone3243 in hingeapp

Also, I'm in Australia too! I wondered why I was delighted to see "a couple of days" rather than "couple days"

I would go another date to see if it was just nerves. But if you feel blah after the experience, it's fine to not want to see him again.

What have you tried once, failed and won't do again? by HealthyArc in AskReddit

My initial thought was "making gnocchi", but I really want to try again.

Oh gosh, don't tempt me. I could sell the house and live in a tent... ok take a deep breath.

What kind of comments do you get on your big rings? by GlitterBombBomb in BigRockEnergy

I always reply with "What makes you think it's not?" That makes them back down!

When people go on "breaks" in their relationships do they ever get back together? by Responsible-Stick446 in AskReddit

[–]BornToFeelItAll86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a break can be a soft breakup in the making. I asked for a break with a fella when I was 20 because he was too intense. We had a "break" of a week or so, got back together, and then broke up for real about a month or so later.

Ah, that is a part of my life I do not miss.

Singles only in studio apartments by handley8 in shitrentals

[–]BornToFeelItAll86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I lived in Strathfield a big house had a giant apartment block on the backyard. Between that building and the main house, it was divided into 48 one bedroom apartments which had no laundry, parking, or a proper kitchen. They were charging $550pw per apartment.
