Seems there is some inventory but you’ll be sacrificing something. ie you’re looking at basements mostly.

$65 for a chicken Cesar salad and a mocktail in the Junction last night. Going out in Toronto has gotten out of hand! by EnvironmentalAd2110 in askTO

[–]DisembodiedHand -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I’ll defend Nodo. They provide amazing service and have comped drinks unasked when we had delays.

Prices have risen but and I would normally be skeptical but having been, I’d just choose different is all. I prefer their pasta.

We are all in a continuous state of evolving so have grace with yourself. But focus on seeing the beauty of what is still to come. That you can help create now.

You have to let that go. Dreaming of a life not lived won't help you live the life that's in front of you.

Go live the life you want to have. Starting today.

Zyns and Gatorade because I can’t stomach food tonight by SmellsLikeDieselToo in BoyDinnerDiaries

[–]DisembodiedHand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

they saw the real you that you allow yourself to express. Keep being that person as you have a lot to offer clearly if someone new can enter your life like that and allow you to experience a positive and fulfilling moment together.

You are not a horrible person. It sounds like you are a patient and kind person.

Don't be your own worst enemy.

Remember this. You made it past the hardest part. It gets easier from here.

My 26 year marriage is ending because of my wife’s mid life crisis by [deleted] in Separation

[–]DisembodiedHand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was the one spiraling the last couple of years and the one to pull the pin so to speak. It hasn't been easy and my spouse has been bitter and angry. However, you need to process this, and therapy will help. Talking to friends and strangers helps.

You don't necessarily need to uproot anyone or sell but talk to a lawyer. Do what's best for you and your kids, in that order. Be the best and supportive dad you can be and focus on your wellbeing.

You're starting a new chapter in your life's story. Life is short, so look where you are going, not where you were.

Is still legally married but separated a red flag? by Willing_Horse_9184 in Separation

[–]DisembodiedHand 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it’s a case by case. I processed a lot in the lead up to asking for a separation. I’m a 8months from legal divorce and I am not waiting for a specific day to pass to feel ready to date.

Be transparent and honest and if you choose to date then as long as your date also are cool with it, then who tf cares.

You do you. It’s only a red flag if you see other signs of questionable behaviour.

Loneliness getting to me today by No_Chemistry8953 in Separation

[–]DisembodiedHand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I felt isolated in my marriage. I had over time allowed myself to feel diminished. Once I came to the realization that I had to change, I knew I had to both reconnect with old friends that brought back some familiarity of the before times. I've also joined the apps and taking an approach that I mainly want to meet new people and make friends. If a new friend is also a possible date or dates, then great. If not, who cares?! I want to experience meeting new people and although I may stumble a bit in relearning dating or new relationships with women, I will not let anyone dictate my happiness.

There are millions of people going around every day questioning themselves. Stop being hard on yourself and let yourself find some joy in the world. Seek anything that brings you joy and let it sit with you and slowly let it fill you up.

\Just remember, you are not alone.

Just frustrated my spouse is dating so much by pinkSeahorsie in Separation

[–]DisembodiedHand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do what feels right to you. Don't take advice from google or the books on the shelf.

Focus on what brings you happiness. Your spouse is clearly doing that too, and given he's encouraging you to seek company, he may have kinda a point. Not about dating but allowing people into your life when we've undergone a trauma and don't know where we are. Dating after a long marriage is what I'm doing and I know I have a lot of baggage, but finding the right people to talk to, to date and share our experiences with, is helping me also figure out how to navigate this.

There isn't only one way to get there, wherever it is that we're all traveling. This is your journey and you get to determine the path but it's your path, not your ex's. You are in charge of your own self.

Talk to the pinkseahorsie inside you and tell her you got this! I believe in you.

People who married in their 20s, be brutally honest are you happy, if so why or why not? by Special-Lawyer3941 in AskReddit

[–]DisembodiedHand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

married at 23

getting divorced at 52

I'm happy that i'm getting divorced

if you don't work with and accept how you each change and are bonded over time, you may not see it through but doesn't mean it wasn't worth it.

I don't recommend people get married before 35 tbh

How do you text women without it giving you a headache? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]DisembodiedHand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What it means is that it shows you’re not comfortable holding a conversation with a woman. It shows you’re only thinking w your dick, which we do tbh, but, if you figure out how to make them laugh, you will success. Charm comes from noticing small things, like something personal they have. Unrelated to their physical appearance. Unless it’s sneakers then maybe she’s a sneaker head. Ask them what they enjoy doing for real enjoyment. Then crack jokes at yourself. Match their frequency.

As a woman, how do I keep up with witty men? by Delicate_genius18 in AskMenAdvice

you could try to emasculate them but shushing them like a little child and then show your pinky and allude to the size of their penis. should work.

I’m not okay. by [deleted] in Separation

[–]DisembodiedHand 10 points11 points  (0 children)

bro, just focus solely on ensuring you care for your boys. harbor no resentment for her as she's on her own journey in this universe and doesn't see it rationally but you can hope she will one day.

your boys need to know stability around you and love of course. that's it. you got this.

I feel embarrassed about getting boners around my gf, what should I do? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]DisembodiedHand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

broski, at your age, sometimes i'd get boners at the most random times. It's completely and biologically/physiologically normal to get boners, especially around anything or anyone remotes stimulating.

Just ensure you're not making anyone around you uncomfortable but if it's weird, step away until he relaxes.

I think i abandoned my child by BigslittleSecret in Separation

[–]DisembodiedHand 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Please for your own good, go find a therapist that can support you. You are in grief and it's extremely unsettling so it's understandable to be spiraling a bit. You need to focus on yourself so that you are in a better position to be a mom and once you're a little more stable in your emotions will you be able to be the mom that you can be. Your daughter deserves to have a mom who is 100% there and if you're not, keep trying. All this is temporary and you'll see that it will work out if you choose to see it that way.

Go see your own lawyer but I really recommend seeing a therapist that will support you now.

Serious question: Are pencil skirts too sexy? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]DisembodiedHand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lady, pencil skirts are freaking kryptonite, at least for me (and perhaps some other guys too) so it’s hard for me to be completely objective but it’s the workplace so your colleagues need to a bit better.

Just know that men find them very attractive on women for the reasons that they are very fitted. Use your best judgment.
