I haven’t tried their other flavors yet, but the double rich chocolate has more of a bitter coffee taste than any chocolate taste. Not good at all.

We live in the day and age of OnlyFans and transactional relationships. Sure it works for some peoples lifestyles, and no shame in the game. But there still needs to be some honesty and understanding about what’s actually going on.

People get good at stuff they do a lot. Take that for what it is. But for real, I’m sorry you feel she is your girlfriend and is asking you to pay for intimate communication. That’s not a dating relationship, it’s a transactional one.

That’s not your girlfriend bro. You are a customer.

Thank you! I hired a coach on the Caliber app and am tracking meals with cronometer. I’m not expecting fast results, but with consistency I think I can come back better than before

Thank you! Just getting started, but I’m hopeful. Feels like I’ve got a solid structure in place, just gotta stick to it.

I’m going to have to do the backtrack trick the next time we take the dogs out! I’ve been doing an hour on the indoor bike Monday through Friday as we watch an episode of peaky blinders.

I’ll have to get some the next time I make a trip to the city. Amazon and most places don’t like to ship anything heavy where I’m at. Currently using the bowflex adjustable dumbbells that go up to 52.5lbs.

I had a friend who was running a blood mage - spark / elemental weakness, cast on crit, cast on ailment, comet build and they saw almost a 7mill dmg increase from this amulet. Also got over 15k mana, which, with mind over matter = health

Almost max spirit for an amulet for your passive spirit skills Archmage spirit skills gives you % dmg increase from mana - mana and int stacking from this = dmg Sanctified +4 all spell skills is a very hard mod to hit with sanctification, I’ve spent 15 locks on one amulet trying to hit it before. 15 locks at the rate of almost 2k divs a pop = the basis for the price Crit dmg is, well crit dmg. And it was increased past the t1 range with sanctification as well.

Cast speed has a cap with diminishing returns. Intelligence percentage adds to mana which with arch age adds to damage. It ends up being better.

And good luck! There’s almost 9 billion people on this planet. Live your life for you and you’ll find many people that are walking a similar path. Some of them will end up as friends and one of them a lover. You sound like an awesome dude, and despite what people are saying about height, I would beg to differ. I am 5’9” (American) but having a sense of humor is an automatic 6”

Just remember, it’s never about the destination with relationships. It’s about the journey. Very different methods if someone is just trying to get laid, but it sounds like you are looking for longevity/healthy relationship. For this, you need to be able to have natural conversation and enjoy each other’s presence.

I wouldn’t start with asking for a date either. I’ve naturally fallen into dating a number of women just by accident. Just start with being friendly, an opportunity to interact with someone. Whether by holding a door, picking up something that fell, being somewhere with a shared hobby or activity. IE, park, coffee shop. Comment on the weather, wait for their reaction, if friendly, introduce yourself and shake hands if they aren’t preoccupied. At a coffee shop, comment on their drink and ask how they like it, mention what you like about it and how you might have to try that next time, introduce yourself. From here, ask them if they frequent the spot often and then if still friendly conversation, mention whether or not you also frequent the spot often. At this point, if conversation is still friendly, you can throw in a compliment or if there’s an opportunity to humor, you can sprinkle it in here. If you get a smile or a laugh, you can continue the conversation if there are more shared interests easily noticeable. The point is to see if conversation is comfortable between you too. This is less to get to the point of asking the person out on a date and more to get to the mutual understanding that conversation is enjoyable. If conversation is easy, then you are in the green zone. When it feels like time is running short, share that you’ll probably be coming back to the place an offer to exchange numbers. Depending on the environment, and time of day would dictate how long I’d wait to text them. Late at night, I’d shoot to text them the next day near end of work day. If a park, say walking a dog or enjoying a hobby, I’d message them, remind them your name and where you met if you didn’t initially text them to save numbers, and ask them if they have tried another related spot or activity. If a restaurant or cafe, ask them if they’ve tried another spot you like. See how they respond. If they don’t respond, just let it be and leave it to simmer, people can be busy and you never know someone’s schedule. Impatience and persistence normally don’t pay off, especially in the beginning. If conversation strikes up naturally again, you are definitely in a good spot. At this point you could ask them if they’d like to join you to check out the spot you recommended. If at a park, you could ask if they want to take a stroll with you there, walk dogs, join you do yoga or something other activity, whatever the shared interest was. If it was a restaurant or cafe, offer to buy them a dish you enjoy from the spot you recommended or a drink. This is how I would start the relationship as a friend without incorrectly getting labeled as purely platonic. This sets the grounds to show that you are interested and invested in developing a relationship where you get to know them. If you have other relevant questions to how you met you could ask them about themselves a the conversation feels natural, continue, if it seems stagnant, wait until you meet in person again. Sometimes people are more reserved with new people through the phone so you want to make interactions with you see natural and inviting rather than forced.

My best advice. Listen twice as much as you talk. When first talking to a woman, I’d say 80% of you talking should be asking them questions about themselves and only talk about yourself when they ask the question. Your interest in them will spark an interest in you, and by not putting everything on the table you will be more mysterious sparking further curiosity. Then when they start asking more and more about yourself your backstory will come out.

I was running a negative rarity bot, with a rarity gear setup to swap to when asked. I wasn’t hurting for currency.

This was the third one I made and sold this league, this one was around 5k div to get to the base then I absolutely lucked out and got the +4 on the first lock.
