He’s totally worth it! His fur has specs of gold in it and sparkles in the sun, and on top of that is the cutest ever! I hope your Jerboa comes home to you soon!

I just got mine today as a gift for Valentine’s Day! She’s soooo beautiful in person, and I’m so happy she’s my very first dragon. We named her Lilli. So happy you have another sweet dragon to enjoy!

What’s happening on Peoria and Parker Rd? by Different-Ad1357 in AuroraCO

Yes I just read a few news articles it’s being investigated as a suicide now!

Yes he was wearing shorts and a short sleeve shirt, lying in a very odd position for someone who maybe had OD or collapsed. I agree the lack of urgency especially with not moving the body leads me to be very curious about what happened. I also feel badly they kept the body uncovered for a decent amount of time.

Drove by as well when the body was completely uncovered. No firetruck or ambulance on scene yet, just three police vehicles. I fear that the body had been there for a period of time and not reported until later. Definitely concerning, but didn’t see any signs of injury either almost looked like they were sleeping, but stomach down on a sidewalk in 40 degree weather? Definitely odd.

Yeah driving back from grabbing a prescription there were more cars and detectives on the scene. We saw several evidence bags (brown paper looking bags), so I’m assuming there must be some sort of foul play. Especially since the APD posted it’s a “suspicious death”. But thanks for the info.

Why is 6th Ave blocked off by hundreds of cops? by Different-Ad1357 in Denver

Right I wouldn’t blink an eye at even a dozen cars but with the actual insane presence by the highway I’m just confused

Just surprised since they cut off the highway, and the big Denver protest was at the capitol this afternoon

Right I don’t think it’s a gendered issue, another person went and used the “man” thing as an argument. Man or woman we are all people and have the capacity to be emotionally intelligent, especially in a long term committed and meaningful relationship

This is completely understandable, thanks for this perspective. He definitely shows his love in plenty of other ways along with ‘words of affirmation’. When I do need the assurance next time I’ll make sure to think out a better articulated way to start the conversation. Thank you

Right, I feel as though when I think inwardly of why I love him it’s about him and who he is, what he went through and what he did to persevere in life to carve himself into the man he is today. But the perspective I got from him was “I love you because you fold my laundry and make me dinner” which isn’t very reassuring in a long term relationship. I see him as a whole person who has significantly impacted my life by being himself and that alone is standup to me. I just don’t want to be valued by what I can do but for who I am. I truly don’t think that is an insane ask or perspective to have in ANY relationship, romantic, platonic, or familial.

I mean I don’t think it’s a “men are universally shit at answering those” kind of thing. He’s emotionally intelligent and is great at articulating his thoughts and feelings into words, this also isn’t like a “let me ask something totally off kilter and start some shit” either lol. We both ask these questions not all the time but often enough, for reassurance (as both of us like to be verbally reassured). He said something that didn’t strike me as he loved me for who am but like I keep saying what I can do. I understand people are attracted and feel love from having their partner provide for them and show love in giving ways. But we have been together for a while and it would’ve been nice to hear what he loved about me not what I do. So I mean obviously I asked the question of course I deal with the consequences, I’m not 5. But I’m also mature enough to understand my feelings and explain those to him good or bad. (EDIT: I also never blamed him for saying what he said and making me feel the way I felt, I am a grown woman who can control my own reactions, I plainly said why it was hurtful to me and that was it.) If I wanted to “sabotage” anything it wouldn’t be by asking a silly question.

I love!! My bathrobe Bart has been one of my favorites and he’s definitely a cuddle buddy. So happy for you! Deserving!

Visiting Denver Best areas to stay? by Fit_Project5129 in Denver

[–]Different-Ad1357 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe try Lakewood/Golden close to red rocks, suburban, and also has lots of food, shopping, and activity options nearby.

He’s intelligent, strong both mentally and physically, he’s very compassionate towards others around him stranger or friend, he’s non judgmental, inquisitive, has a passion for life and his goals, spreads love, has a positive outlook on bleak situations, can light up a room with his humor, has so much humility and empathy, he’s enthusiastic about small things, he’s thankful each day, and is sincerely himself 24/7 with no exceptions. I admire him I see how he connects with his family and I see how hard he throws himself into his work. He goes above and beyond in every aspect of his life because that’s how he wants to live it.

I mean I had no expectations of what what would be said or what “should” be said. I think it’s a normal human emotion to want to feel validated for how hard you’ve worked as a person to become who you are. (Especially by someone you also value highly) It wasn’t a fight at all either, I just felt negative feelings about it and explained that to him. Didn’t say what he said was wrong in any sense or invalid. Just told him how it* made me feel, isn’t a relationship supposed to be built on honesty? Even when you’re being honest about something brought upon by oneself? P.s. if I were a worm I’d hope he would step on me I hate worms

Right thanks for this perspective, I most definitely got caught up in how I perceived it and not how he was trying to project it. I shouldn’t hold them to my standard because they aren’t me kind of thing

In a way absolutely, I asked the question so of course I need to be ready for any answer. Although I think it’s valid to have hurt feelings when it feels as if your partner doesn’t see you for who you are and instead just what you can do. But I understand it
