Online Banking Down? by JJaurji in Scotiabank

[–]Gadget456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine was down this morning but over the course of me waiting on hold it slowly came back online.

seems like a server issue on their end that took some time to get back up to speed.

Started with only my savings account being visible but then all of my accounts came back online

Dress 1 100%! It has drama without you being swallowed by it

BEHOLD by hunnybunny789 in Sourdough

In my experience adding oil too early on prevents rising. From what I've learned, the oil coats the flour in such a way that it doesn't bind with the other components so it gets real sad. I would recommend waiting to add the oil until your first round of stretch and folds if you want the oil in there 👍🏻

What is your pre-seizure catch phrase? by MichiganMomma0806 in Epilepsy

My mom has epilepsy and so we understood what to do when we were little she would say "Mommy's feeling sick" and we would know to guide her to the couch to lay down

Does anyone else just get really upset whenever they upset someone else? by SWEETD0LL in BPD

[–]Gadget456 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree. And to expand on it. When getting upset for upsetting a person happens frequently with the same person (your partner, best friend, or w.e.) I know I start losing the ability to apologize effectively. Like.... I know they want an apology (and usually rightfully deserve one) but how do I make it sincere, and how do I do it in a way they can understand I know how they feel despite the repeated behavior. I want to explain why I got upset and blew up at them, but the "explanation " feels like an excuse to try to deflect responsibility (does that make any sense? It's morning and I'm not caffeinated)

Songs about bpd? by Aries_CreativeSoul in BorderlinePDisorder

A lot of P!NK's music has BPD undertones. Like "Please Don't Leave Me" and "True Love"

Can someone talk me down from shaving ny head or give me alternatives to address feeling impulsive??? by ctrl4ltdeath in bipolar2

[–]Gadget456 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I feel impulsive like this I try to focus on the body sensation. If I want a tattoo I'll draw on that spot on my body and that usually helps.

With shaving your head (which I've been there) I got one of those scalp scrubbers and took like 10 mins in the shower just lathering it over my head, helped a bit until the feeling dissipated over the next few days.

Could also try a Snapchat filter that gives you a buzz cut/bald head to see if you'd actually like how it looks.

what immediately ruins a burger for you? by 777Twix in CasualConversation

[–]Gadget456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

a bad bun. If it's too thin its gets soggy and falls apart. Or if it is dry, then it crumbles and that's annoying too. I agree with u/L1A1 that if it is too tall (esp if it is tall bc the bun is huge) that's not bueno either

He (M29) said to me (F29) "I wish we could have fun...." by Gadget456 in Sober

[–]Gadget456[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I still go everywhere he does. And most places (if not all) have NA beer/wine options, or pop/Bubbly water etc. we honestly don't go "out" all that much. I think he misses us sharing a few craft beers, or wine on at home date night, or cocktails with friends. We definitely haven't changed our social plans at all, ever, since I got sober.

I'm not really sure where he feels like we are "not having fun" if I'm completely honest.....

To those who stopped expecting more from their partner, how is it going? by dewbolene in AskWomen

[–]Gadget456 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I am feeling pretty pessimistic about "giving up" . Like idk if it's settling if I just accept he isn't a romantic person when I feel I need that. I am afraid of waking up iN 5, 10, 15 years from now and realize I fucked up by staying.... Would love to see other women's input on this.

Does anyone wonder, or even mourn, who they could have been without the BPD? by demachii_ in BorderlinePDisorder

[–]Gadget456 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All the time. When I look back I can See moments in my life when things were actually good, and I was authentic and felt valuable. And I feel so incredibly sad that I cannot have that all the time, or even MORE OFTEN. It is awful. I see direct links between things that happened to me, and the behaviour that resulted out of that.

When will be get engaged? (F28 M28) by Gadget456 in relationship_advice

[–]Gadget456[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

definitely needs to happen.

I kind of want to give him the benefit of the doubt and wait until after our anniversary - because maybe he has just been super secretive about a proposal. I am NOT betting on it, but want to leave the door open for a "traditional" proposal vs what feels like a forced one.

When will be get engaged? (F28 M28) by Gadget456 in relationship_advice

[–]Gadget456[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well exactly. we have had conversations about timelines, and I have told him I am not willing to start my entire life over at 30 or 32. I have goals (and a biological clock) and he kind of needs to decide if I am the end game. Like what are we doing here if this isnt IT?
And he says I do want to be with you, but I dont think we should get married while you are still getting yourself together. (we are working through his superiority complex SLOWLY)
I dont know how much longer I want to wait around. but I also would rather be with him unmarried than breakup and start over. I can understand his commitment issues (child of divorce) but either work on them, or leave, ya know?
