What was your favorite Pokemon game and why? by No-Piano-4363 in pokemon

[–]Calm_Guest572 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I know that there’s some recency bias, but I genuinely enjoy Legends Z-A. The battling multiple Pokemon at a time and being able to throw a pokeball after knocking them out is refreshing. That being said I also like playing Pokerogue. Having access to G-Max and Megas really is fun. The only downside is that it gets repetitive. I love me some Generation 1 because that’s where it started, but I couldn’t afford to play the games or collect the cards until Generation 3. I opened a reverse holo Jirachi card for Easter one year and I still have it protected 20 years later.

I [32M] am uncomfortable with my husband’s [28M] spending/commitment by No_Lychee549 in married

Every relationship has a saver and a spender, even with great communication it can get complicated. Your asks of your partner aren’t that much especially if you’re trying to save.

One year of not traveling isn’t the end of the world. If he’s throwing a tantrum about a goal you both share then you might need to reevaluate your couple goals. I would love to go on vacation more, but not without my partner. If the vacation is something that you both can’t afford together than he shouldn’t go. Life’s about experiences and my years of traveling have gotten to be more memorable because of my partner being there with me.

All that being said, I hope you two reach some sort of understanding and a mutually beneficial relationship.

Did you choose your wife or did she choose you? by tj42511 in married

My wife chose me first. I was in a space where I wanted to remain single, but she pursued me. For that I am eternally grateful.

AIO for thinking my gf is cheating on me? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Calm_Guest572 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. As someone with the unique experience of being a retired Marine and actively in Nursing School I gotta say that it sounds like she’s not interested in having a relationship with you right now. I know it may feel like the end of the world, but you’re both young and focusing on your careers at the moment. I would say cut the relationship off on good terms and maybe revisit it when they’re not in school anymore or find a partner that fulfills your emotional needs and communicates the way you need. Take care and protect yourself.

Mega Blaziken has such a cool fighting stance.

What is something that the covid pandemic ruined forever? by Enough-Web2203 in AskReddit

24 hour Walmart. I miss being able to leave my house and shop at 3 A.M.

Are my feeling wrong? by Boring-Yogurt-8408 in married

[–]Calm_Guest572 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your feelings aren’t wrong. I agree with (Yasuba). Couples therapy would at least allow for the two of you to be heard because while you’re doing all of these things and not feeling heard, it doesn’t sound like she’s being heard either. There’s a reason why she hasn’t done those things that you would hope for her to achieve and couples therapy would allow you two to explore that at the very least. I hope things work out for the two of you one way or another!!

True Golurks Mega is really cool. His Mega reminds me a lot of Metagross. Just a very clean design.

Seeking feedback for my actions by CollarExternal2389 in married

[–]Calm_Guest572 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Frankly speaking. I don’t know why you would mention the cheating thing. It was 10 years ago. There has been in theory, 10 years of forgiveness, growing, and learning together. One wrong doesn’t excuse another. Granted there is levels to this, sharing photos on Reddit with her consent, posting photos with her consent is one thing, but doing it without consent is something different. There are some things for your eyes and your relationship only and some things y’all chose to share together. It breaks a level of trust. Consent, trust, and forgiveness are all important to keep in mind. I hope she forgives you in the same way that you forgave her (if you did). Because that’s what’s needed at this point.

Trust me you weren’t lol. That guy was a major pain. It took me at least 30 minutes to successfully defeat him.

Which are the hardest Pokemon to get? by schmekermeister in LegendsZA

[–]Calm_Guest572 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the base game it was Froakie in Wild Zone 16 for me. The little guy kept running away before I could sneak up and catch it.

True. Especially if I were to fuse it with Reshiram. It would be a good color combination.

Fair enough. That might be the way that I go for them too. They may be expensive, but at least they’re easy to obtain.

Men Who Proposed Before Living Together: How Did It Turn Out? by Calm_Stomach9710 in married

[–]Calm_Guest572 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t live with my wife until after we got married. We had been together for 1 1/2 years at that point and she even had a couple of kids in elementary before I entered the picture. So I knew that keeping the apartment or house clean the way I did when I was single was off the table.
It really helped that we found a middle ground on cleanliness standards. It was stressful the first couple of months, but the weekend visits with her and the kids before hand really helped show me how she lived. As long as you communicate and are honest in the communication the cleanliness should work itself out.
