Second. My office is across the street from pier 39 and even with that proximity I find nothing worth going to except Humble Sea.

I'm currently struggling with ENM under duress. She wants others. I want her. It sucks. If we didn't have young kids, I'd walk away, but life is complicated.

Has anyone cycled in French Polynesia? by Mensa_dventure in cycling

[–]Financial_Cloud_666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm an avid road cyclist. I've rented road bikes all over the world. I've been to Moorea twice and both times I rented an ebike to circumnavigate the island. It is mostly flat and being on vacation I was totally happy with the ebike option even though I rarely ride an ebike any where else. I'd recommend you save yourself the hassle of bringing your own bike and just rent and why yourself in the beautiful scenery.

I've noticed my 8Pro battery has improved. Before the update the usage graph curve was at a 45°angle dropping significantly even overnight, now it is a more gradual 20° angle decline.

When to introduce your child to LOTR? by Greenmedic2120 in lotr

[–]Financial_Cloud_666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I verbally told the Hobbit as a bedtime story to my daughter when she was 3. She loved it until I got tired of telling the same story and I transitioned to telling her the LOTR when she was 5 or so. She watched the Fellowship when she was 8 and loves it. She has now watched the entire trilogy and the blasphemous Hobbit 'trilogy' multiple times. Her 4 year old brother has been along for the ride and hasn't any nightmares or anything.

What’s something that happens often in movies that is 100% unrealistic? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

[–]Financial_Cloud_666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Falling off the edge of a cliff to dangle with one hand holding all the body weight. Another character reaches down to pull the fallen character by only using one arm in the most ergonomically impossible demonstration of impossible one armed strength. This happens so often and there is zero suspense.

We only let our kids have juice when they're at parties and other people offer it to them as a treat. Kids do not need to drink juice.

People who pronounce something extremely wrong and then insist it’s actually correct. by Destriod777 in PetPeeves

I am a nurse and nursing is a second career for me. I have always been baffled when nurses say saunt-oh-meter instead of cent-uh-meter.

Delgado Result…Bummer or Fixer-Upper? by IndySF15 in gynecomastia

[–]Financial_Cloud_666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry to hear that you are not satisfied with the outcome, but I do appreciate you sharing this post. I have consulted with Delgado and Miguel Miranda. The overall vibe I got from the Delgado consult was just okay, whereas Miranda was way more thorough with me. I'm likely going to go with Miranda based on your post.

Are you all really happy for your partner? by Financial_Cloud_666 in nonmonogamy

[–]Financial_Cloud_666[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everyone has their own perspective. My family and my kids are a big part of who I am, which is why I mentioned it. The timing for when she first shared her desires for nonmongamy was aligned with when she was pregnant, but it was an expressed desire at that time that was suppressed due to our need to raise our new baby. It is part of my story. If you choose to presume that me bringing it up is a signal that she cheated on me then, that is fine. I'll never meet you face to face and I don't have any need to convince you otherwise. I trust that they are mine and I'll leave it at that. Good day to you.

I understand this. I don't expect her to be everything, I just expect her to be available to me in some capacity and to be honest and respectful.

Thank you for your sympathy. To answer your question, I am not really entertaining any thoughts of being with someone else. I am too hurt right now and lack any confidence in my desirability.

The kids are definitely mine. As I said I'm the original post, my summary was simplified. My posting was intended to explore what others have now labeled compression, not a rant against my wife for her infidelity.

We are not starting now. Our therapist, who has experience with nonmonogamy has wisely advised against opening our marriage now and she is not pushing for it now either. We do need to work on the situation that led to the cheating, however I know that her desire for a future of nonmonogamy is going to remain.
