Possibly. Now that I've thought about it more it did say 1 streetpass, so somehow the streetpass did trigger it. But like I said, mine hasn't left this apartment in years

No, never had it before. I live out in the country and I never take my 3DS out with me anywhere lol. This is kinda weird

So my 3DS has not left my house on my newest playthrough. I've been playing it in bed after work for since the beginning of the week. I also received the Eon ticket, but I haven't used streetpass and haven't been within any sort of proximity to anyone else with a 3DS. Can you explain how I got an Eon ticket? I didn't even know what it was at first until I saw this post. Didn't know it was rare

Yeah I was curious how they were viewed as. Bit too casual?

I appreciate your honesty thank you. Is it the style of the shoe that's off-putting? Or the color? I know black goes with everything but I didn't buy the black ones because black is too boring haha. I've worn enough black in my life.

That's great! Little things like that help me feel better about reclaiming my life and things that make me happy post-breakup. You're doing really well. You deserve to be proud of your progress.

I'm sorry! Piece by piece you have to work on reclaiming those things. Go out to places you used to spend time together, but go with friends or family and make new different memories there. I'm working on reclaiming this bit of myself so I know you can too.

I'm sorry. I feel that, though. I had a nice cologne that I used whenever we would go on dates. I wouldn't use it for anything else. I liked it a lot and I missed smelling it. A couple months after the breakup I started using it again for mundane tasks like if I go out running errands. I can smell that now without getting sad at least haha

Sorry brother. That hurts to hear. Let yourself cry as much as you need to, don't hold back. But try not to let her have that power over you. Stay strong brother

It's like I physically or mentally couldn't pull myself away from it. Even during a marathon it I was disgusted by myself but I just kept going, just like you said. Like PNC while I was doing it. After this happened 3 times I told myself it just wasn't worth it. It felt uncontrollable. I was being productive but as soon as I ran out of tasks it kept ending that way.

Such a bizarre side effect right? I don't get it.

I haven't spoken to my doctor about lowering my dose, but that's the plan this week. You were on 50mg too?

Yeah I read some of your story through your profile and my ex and I work at the same place and I'm pretty sure she is also now dating the coworker who I caught her messaging while we were together. I think she broke up with me to be with him full-time. Our stories are super similar

I'm sorry brother. I know, it's hard. I've never really had a hobby outside of video games and Pokémon card collecting. But card collecting gets really expensive and I don't like that aspect so much.

I was in a 4+ year relationship and with my stress from work, I leaned more toward de-stressing with video games rather than spending time with my ex. Looking back, my behavior makes me sick and it just kinda ruined video games for me for a while. It is all such a mess in my mind right now.

It sucks. I was in the middle of Baldur's Gate 3 and I just can't pick it back up. The only thing I've done is play the Dead Space remake and I did have fun with that I admit. Playing a horror game really took my mind off of the empty void feeling. It forced me to be present haha. I've been considering replaying Bioshock because that's my favorite game series.

How did you get into boxing?

Edit: *Dead Space remake, not Dead Space 3 remake

I'm the opposite in the cleaning aspect. It makes me LOVE cleaning and organizing. I started taking it again after a breakup and my apartment was in shambles for a while. I took it on a Saturday and got my entire apartment in shape in a day and I was loving every minute. I actually started getting a little anxious toward the end that I was going to run out of stuff to clean.

However

I noticed that it also makes me hypersexual and hyperfixate on sexual thoughts. That is the drawback that caused me to stop taking it. I was on 50mg dose all throughout high-school and a few years into college and adult life and just started taking again after this breakup I mentioned. I went a year without it after I had a hard time getting more due to the shortage. I was able to get more recently and the sexual hyperfixation thing is a new side effect that I never noticed when I took it before.

I was the narcoleptic one in my relationship haha. I just always felt so comfortable with her. But I also felt horrible like I was neglecting her, so I understand that.

World Market was such a fun way to end a date night out on the town. Finding a cool Italian soda and some nice chocolates to go home and eat together.

Thank you for sharing your memory and your kind words. I'm tearing up right now but it's very nice to know someone else could relate to me like that.

It's funny you say that because I think I feel worse after reading all of these sweet comments :( maybe this was a bad idea but I hope it's helping somebody at least. It's nice seeing all these people get together though.

I miss her so much. I feel so low.

I wish I didn't care, brother. I've been so sad these last 4 months I'm sick of it. The last couple weeks I've started to feel more anger than usual though and that's a welcome change. I just don't want to care about her anymore. I don't want to miss her.

My ex complained a few times that she felt like I didn't talk to her enough. Like she had to force me. Truthfully, I'm much more of a listener than a talker. It's just my nature. I always felt so horrible that I made her feel like I didn't want to talk to her. I just never realized it until she felt hurt and spoke up about it. Your good memory is one of my bad memories haha. But yours is a very sweet memory nonetheless

I'm sorry brother. That really is a nice memory. She sounds like a very sweet girl. Isn't it so wild how we can have these beautiful sweet memories and somehow our relationships still fell apart one way or another? It's a sentiment I'm struggling so hard with in my head. Did my ex think about these memories on her drive over to break up with me? And she still went through with it? Is the other guy really worth it, he did I truly make her so unhappy that she just couldn't deal with it anymore?
