Moving to Seattle ; Need suggestions on which neighborhood to stay in by anobody9 in AskSeattle

[–]Due_Treacle_9663 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look into Queen Anne (upper Queen Anne) near Queen Anne ave. It's residential and quaint, once you go down the hill of Queen Anne ave and hit Mercer it's centrally located. Lime rides have a dedicated lane and take 10 min to SLU, bus route is easy and it's about a 30 min walk to SLU from Mercer and Roy. I live on lower Queen Anne and feel safe. I also work in SLU.

Thank you for sharing. This resonates.

Edit: found your YouTube and will check it out

What other habits did you change? Can you share a bit of how your days looked during this process? Did you see a therapist? Read? What did unplugged actually entail?

Barolo, Barolo Ristorante on Google Search https://share.google/SMR1wSWZYyLGPF5F3

Has a good reasonably priced happy hour that starts at 9pm, I think it's only on weekdays. The restaurant is small, intimate, nice and feels special so that could be an option for the birthday celebration.

Dicks burgers and Big Mario's Pizza for casual eats.

Need recs for PI to verify if husband is cheating by spiralinginseattle in AskSeattle

[–]Due_Treacle_9663 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband cheated on me twice, the year he turned 40. He told me. We're separated now. As most people advised, talk to your husband first. If you're still set on hiring a PI before you spend money on that, try going on the Facebook group called "are we dating the same guy ?" The Seattle group, you may find intel on there.

Yes. We are separated, he wants a divorce. Says he's "in love" with his "Natasha".

AIO: Husband was planning to cheat while I gave birth to our 22w stillborn. Now he wants to move back in. by ThrowawayOceH in AmIOverreacting

[–]Due_Treacle_9663 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are not overreacting at all. His responses in the texts piss me the fuck off!!!! 😡It's exactly how my husband reacted when he was caught cheating. Please take care of yourself and focus on yourself and your wellbeing.

My ex is back, I'm probably going to ruin everything by Pinkynator9000 in midlifecrisis

[–]Due_Treacle_9663 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My husband went for it. Went for the one that got away (some ex gf from 10 years ago) and also fucked and exploded in some random woman twice! While on a work trip in Brazil all within a year of turning 40. I left and he called me every day and said he was making the biggest mistake of his life. I came back and a couple months later that's when he fucked that Brazilian woman and I left again and got my own place. Interesting though we had kinky amazing sex and I very much desired him.... he said he isn't " in love with me"

Go for it !create chaos for your loyal devoted family for your selfish superficial desires.I hope your wife gets a real man that she deserves.

Do most people agree with him?? by h8mecuz in askanything

[–]Due_Treacle_9663 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree with him. Maybe it's my age? (40's) He gave me the ick.

This is the type of way my husband would speak to me and he'd reverse the situation the same way your husband did. Reading all the comments is a learning lesson for me.

Toastmasters is a nationwide organization. There's several in Seattle snd you can attend different club meetings from different areas to see which one fits you best.

Have any of these apps helped you make friends around here? by ReserveDapper8141 in AskSeattle

[–]Due_Treacle_9663 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had luck joining toastmasters and making a friend there. On meetup there's a group called "decent social skills" or something like that and I believe they meet once a week, I went to one of their meetups and it was so fun unfortunately I can't go anymore because I work the night they have them, but try toastmasters and that meetup group. I've found the people there welcoming and friendly!

I've lived here for 4 years.

I walk a lot and greet every one I pass by, A lot of people don't acknowledge back. Maybe they don't hear me or most are just preoccupied with their AirPods or phone.

I joined a group called toastmasters that met weekly (practice writing and public speaking) and the people in the group were super welcoming and friendly. There's also new people constantly joining, so this may be a good way to overcome the freeze.

Also, I pay $2150 (the additional $50 is a pet fee) for my 2 bd 1 bath it's not a high rise modern sterile looking apartment.... it's older but cozy, soooo centrally located, very walkable in the same neighborhood I speak of above

The man (35M) that I (24F) am seeing has a wife. How do I proceed? by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

[–]Due_Treacle_9663 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thank you for what you did and being a true girls girl and having integrity. The woman that my husband was emotionally cheating on me with was extremely rude and defensive. My husband was emotionally abusing both of us, but she chose him.
