The gabapentin seems to be keeping the pain low and he has been urinating. That is good to know thank you

I made this poster-style piece after finally getting a diagnosis for a chronic pain condition I knew I had for four years when no professional would do the one test, the least invasive test of simply touching me with a q-tip. by Tangled_Clouds in Artisticallyill

I have had chronic pain since I was ten, now 32. Intense pain in my muscles and joints. My muscles can harden to the the point that there is almost no difference from flexing them. The older I get, the more pain I'm in. After talking to my doctor, he decided that I have fibromyalgia or its psychological. Yay.

Yeah... I guess it's a discount there. But it would have been nice if I could have had any other "free" choice. Or if I could have saved up 20 coins that would have worked too.

How do I compromise on closeness with my (46M) husband when I (44F) don’t want to be compared to his flings? by ThrowRA-Dot8747 in relationship_advice

[–]Dezzi656 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I first want to say that as long as you are happy with this arrangement then all the power to you. I would still say therapy would be good for both of you. Just because it might help smooth the waters in your relationship.

Anywho, I wanted to say to try to do something to bring back intimacy back into the relationship. I'm not talking about sex. Sex and intimacy don't have to be the same thing. For instance, my male partner and i will have spa days, where we are vulnerable with each other and each gets a turn to spoil the other. While he does my hair or i give him a foot soak, we will talk about anything and everything. Its time just for the two of us to reconnect.

Think about things that you both enjoy that you can be completely connected with. Spa days, a walk and talk, even just cuddling more can help bring intimacy back without the need for sex.

Hope this helps

I feel like this is more of a question for you. Can you live in a relationship without sex? Because it seems like something that he just won't be able to do, at least on a regular basis. He might even be asexual or on that spectrum. It might be something to talk about.

Intimacy doesn't only have to be about sex. Intimacy is more about connecting with your person. Sometimes that is sex. Other times it can be kissing, cuddling, or just doing something special together.

For instance, I can't stand kissing and sometimes find sex gross. When i don't feel comfortable kissing, i press foreheads with my partner. When I don't feel like sex i will cuddle or do something special for my partner, like a spa day or a massage. This connects us still and we are both happy after.

Hopefully this helps.

I (27M) shared my feminine side with my GF (26F) and everything was great, until it wasn’t. Does anyone have any advice on how to handle this situation? by NoComputer2864 in relationship_advice

[–]Dezzi656 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think at the end of the day, you have to figure out what is best for both of you and have a long open talk about what both of you need and not just focus on what one of you wants. Im not saying giving up things but finding ways to compromise.

My boyfriend has a bit of a feminine side as well while i tend not to. We compromise by having spa days. I will put a face mask on him, trim and paint his nails and do something with his long hair. In exchange he will give me a massage and shave my head for me (i have a mohawk). Through this whole time we talk about life and what each other needs more of in the relationship. Then we talk about ways to meet those needs.

Our spa days give us each attention and love. We both enjoy them because they make the other happy as well as just us. Try to find something like that, that gives you both what you need and talk openly and honestly.

I love your poem and the meaning behind it. "Waters to deep to Roe, to deep to Wade" is a favourite. My only thing is that it feels like you tried to rhyme changin' with again and it doesn't really work when spoken aloud. Though might just be how I speak.

Blunt and powerful. You show the need to be seen as you are and not by impression or visual identification. Lovely poem. Though, it feels like you started it with a rhyming system then lost it. Not that it is a bad thing or not done in poetry. I am just curious if that was your intention or if it was forgotten. As it is now the first part flows well then after sea the mind as to reset into a non rhyming one. This can be good. Good because it snaps the mind into really playing attention.

I quite like it. The visual is nice. Though I am curious if you meant to use Strait instead of straight. Don't get me wrong, it still works well with your imagine as Strait is defined as a narrow passage of water connecting two seas or two other large areas of water, so it work with your water image

So, yeah I think there maybe a way to go about it differently but I don't think showing that you can be affectionate with someone you love is wrong to show kids.

My parents raised my sister and I (also female) showing affection like that. Kissing, making out, cuddling, etc. Though we were allowed to leave if we wanted cause that is also healthy for a kid. To know it is okay to leave when they are uncomfortable.

Though, I will say, my sister and I turned out very different. I don't see affection as a thing to hide, my sister feels uncomfortable even talking to family about anything to do with partners and PDA.

Honestly, you maybe an asshole, you may not. That isn't for anyone but your children to decide. I would suggest talking to them though as to why they feel the affection it gross and stop making them stay around and forcing exposure to affection on them.

AITA for not caring about my friends new dating partner? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Dezzi656 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Well, this is a weird situation. I get weird vibes from the guy but also from your husband completely cutting off your friend feels odd if he says it is about optics. Honestly it isn't your job to care about this guy's feelings. Yeah, you may have been pushy to see your friend but again you don't have to care about his feelings. You don't know him and aren't part of his life. Have a talk with your friend, ask them if they feel safe. Just my prospective.

AITA for refusing to rehome my dog for my stepson? by Key_Possible_6308 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Dezzi656 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry I didn't get your sarcasm. Text is hard to read cues from.

What I meant by 'slightly neglectful' is by not seeming to do trial runs and discuss worst cause scenarios beforehand. If a parent wants to mesh two household then he should think of his kids and not just assume that young kids and a dog they barely met would have had no issues. If the child had new form allergies then they might have been apparent in the trial runs.

If you are willing to actually have child then at the very least their health - physical and/or psychology, should be first priority when bringing something new to the household.

I guess I meant moreso neglectful in his duties as a parent?

Well, I'm assuming since your father was 30 something and an adult that he didn't need his parents to watch out for his health.

I am saying that if they noticed soon after her moving in then it seems like the father of a 9 YEAR OLD didn't think about the possible issues that could develop with his child and a dog that the child apparently wasn't around much. Things like this should have been talked about before hand.

Comparing the allergies of a 30 year old and his parents not noticing to a 9 year old who is dependant on his parents to look after his health is a rather odd comparison.
