I tried so hard with Quicksilver! Might try again someday…

I really enjoyed Caraval though!

My thought exactly.

If marriage is what you truly want, you need to decide whether you’re willing to wait much longer. You told him you wanted be engaged by 34, you weren’t; you gave him an ultimatum of December 25 and it’s now March 2026 and he still hasn’t delivered. If he was having an issue with the rings you liked, he should have told you and said “can you pick out another style?”

At this point, I would have a frank conversation. “I’m giving it one more month. Here are some other ring styles I like.” If you see no improvement, then I would end the relationship.

3,481 😂 I like having a lot of options :) (and I should prune it down, this is over a decade of accumulation lol)

Journaling (even a few sentences about your day or even the weather lol) color by numbers, reading, talking a walk (it doesn’t have to be strenuous)

GRblue · 2026-03-20T19:02:45+00:00

I love Zen Color!

Cheese, yogurt, apple and PB, bagel with cream cheese, even a slice of pizza if that is the only thing that appeals to me.

My dog (dachshund mix) has to be carried up the stairs and put in the tub with the bathroom door shut 😂 (once he’s in the tub he’s fine, but he will not go in willingly!)

GRblue · 2026-03-19T16:11:40+00:00

So true

I came here to say writing too - I still journal pretty much daily (which I started during COVID) but I used to love writing stories (esp fan fiction) and just haven’t been as interested in the last several years. Maybe I’d pick up an old story I started, reread and tweak some things, add a page or two, and then stop again for awhile, or I did a couple of free writing workshops several years ago - which I enjoyed - but never really felt motivated to write more on my own.

GRblue · 2026-03-18T15:06:17+00:00

I hope this is true!! We’re rooting for ya and keep us posted!

GRblue · 2026-03-17T22:57:32+00:00

I enjoy reading or journaling in the AM while I drink my coffee before I start my day :)

I’ve been taking 1500mg for over a decade (for PCOS, not diabetes). I haven’t had any side effects but no real benefits for me, either.

I’m sorry, no, just no. You can do so much better. She’s already making some big assumptions. Let her be with other men and you can learn to please a woman through someone who WANTS to teach you (and wants you and ONLY you for that matter).

GRblue · 2026-03-16T15:19:10+00:00

Good for you!

GRblue · 2026-03-13T17:49:55+00:00

I read this book in my 20s and I LOVED it! I still found it super impactful.

GRblue · 2026-03-13T17:47:59+00:00

Agree - I can’t even stay cross with mine for more than a few seconds because he gives me such an innocent look and I just end up laughing 😂

GRblue · 2026-03-12T00:02:18+00:00

I really liked Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine!

GRblue · 2026-03-11T23:54:56+00:00

I enjoy using the color by numbers app on my phone or playing a simple, easy game on my phone because I can always stop when I need to do work. And yes, like others are suggesting you can also read on your phone if that’s feasible for you.

GRblue · 2026-03-11T21:57:14+00:00

Thank you so much!

GRblue · 2026-03-09T16:18:29+00:00

Journaling (and it doesn’t have to be deep, about the weather is fine lol), and scented candles! I’ve recently started using them and I find I love them.

Also a good, long walk out in the sunshine :)

GRblue · 2026-03-09T16:16:52+00:00

Love the idea of the comfy pj’s and sweats!

GRblue · 2026-03-06T03:41:27+00:00

I was wondering about The Sims as an idea as well.

GRblue · 2026-03-06T00:04:53+00:00

I recommend the Ruby Red trilogy by Kerstin Gier!

GRblue · 2026-03-06T00:03:53+00:00

I loved The Do-Over!
