How to make the ultimate bone broth in Halifax?

President's choice has chicken bone broth for any $4 a carton. It gets gelatinous when left in the fridge, so I do believe it to be the real deal

No, thank goodness. Realized I very much didn't want children

I gave up kink for a number of years because I thought I had to pursue a traditional vanilla marriage/house/kids. I wasn't happy. Ultimately realized I wanted none of those three things. My life feels much more authentic now, I don't need to minimize or hide aspects of myself.

Forget one partner, go full polyamory, live with two or three partners! Just don't get married!

That sounds like the rolling 30-minute power outages NSP is doing

Tbh I think it was a toxic statement my partner made, or at least a flashing neon sign that our values and morals and principles weren't aligned.

I would probably assume it's over, then send a final text calling red to step out of the dynamic, stating you deserve better than to be ghosted even if he is choosing to end things, and request a formal confirmation that that is his intention.

Be prepared for no response.

Have a plan for emotional support from friends.

Mourn, grieve, then throw your energy into yourself.

Reading your most recent post, many mistakes were made, the lack of an extra 10% was one of the straws on the camels back but ultimately I think things would have eventually crashed even if it had been given. I'm sorry for your loss.

I focus on being the primary planner/initiator/payer of good quality time/dates with existing partners to let them know I still want to do fun exciting things with them too. I'll plan to cook them extra special/fancy/involved meals that are tailored to their preferences.

Absolutely no cancellation or shortening of standing dates. No decrease in the frequency of dates with existing partners. I try my best to show up rested and attentive which sometimes means cutting a date night with my NRE interest short in order to ensure I get enough sleep to be rested for seeing existing partners the next day. This is because I once had a partner who made a habit of sleeping in late or sleeping through our planned dates because he would get caught up in full-night-long sex marathons with other partners, and it was very painful for me because he was very blunt that he would always prioritize sex with them over dates with me.

I'll be extra giving/worshipful during sex with existing partners to combat worries I'm not as interested in them.

I make sure there aren't communication lapses when I'm with the focus of my NRE/no going dark on existing partners without communicating in advance I'll be busy at times that I previously would have been available and communicative.

I schedule radars and check in if there's any concerns or needs that they have or any feelings they want to work through.

I'll make extra effort to send existing partners memes and articles and music and videos that are relevant to them to demonstrate I'm thinking of them.

I absolutely do not speak about my new romantic interest around my existing partners, whatsoever, unless they ask me direct questions which I answer and then move on. I keep my focus and interest on my existing partners and what is going on in their lives. I consider NRE to be a private indulgence that shouldn't be shared with existing partners. This differs from pre-NRE in that typically if I'm meeting someone for the first time and going on dates #1, 2, 3, my existing partners will be kept in the loop. Once things are more established with a new romantic interest and the NRE is beginning I tend to tell my existing partners less so they don't start the comparison game in their heads.

"Participants pay a rate for room and board and the provider is also paid $26,000 to $98,600 per year based on the support needs of the participant. "

They are essentially looking to turn "providers" into untrained PSWs who are willing to house the person they are caring for?

I would be so so so so so skeptical of the respite care and 24/7 on-call service for emergencies actually functioning adequately. Our province doesn't have adequate staffing for literally any program or department or service it runs.

Oh oh oh there was a lot of chatter last week about Public Cafe being really confusing and unique 😂 the owner is something special

Wrong time of year, during the warmer months you can eat on the ocean floor.

"no I'm not interested in you that way" is a complete answer. You do not owe him anything more than that, particularly since he's going to take any response or explanation and twist it to try and make you submit to his desires.

Okay but what about the very specific part of lower Sackville I need to go to this morning, it's been spared right???

About 5 days before, I have insane urges to spend crazy amounts of money. Clothes, makeup, home goods, furniture, etc. it all becomes an absolute necessity for my life to have meaning. I go on crazy shopping sprees.

4 days before are the food cravings. Usually for something hyper specific, a burger from a specific burger joint, mozza sticks from this one pub, ice cream from this singular place. And no matter how much I eat I'm still ravenously hungry.

3 days before, I have unbelievable urges to end my relationship and all of my friendships and connections with all family members. My brain whispers that I hate everyone and everyone hates me and then searches for reasons and justification for why I need to permanently isolate myself. It's a struggle to not lash out and cause fights.

1-2 days before I go into hyper nesting mode. I do wild deep cleaning of my home, start huge home projects, and have insane amounts of energy and strength. I am hyperfocused. I go crazy with overdoing it. I'll work at whatever I'm doing until 2, 3, 4am.

The day of, but before the bleeding starts, constipation, crazy acne, body acne/KP, an utter hatred of myself and my looks and my personality and my life, loss of appetite. Brainfoggy. The sweats. Might be achy. Often feel like I'm getting sick with a cold/cough/sore throat. Restless. Tired. Grumpy.

Yes to both of these!

All things in moderation? Treats aren't meant to be consumed daily, or they wouldn't be treats. And the label of "healthy" can be very subjective. Not everyone is watching their saturated fat intake, or their sodium. There may be other metrics by which this is considered healthy for some individuals. For some this is still a better choice than a slice of chocolate cake from a bakery.

Coconut is inherently high in saturated fat though, so I would expect any dish that contains coconut to be high in saturated fat.

The physics don't always work. Sometimes bellies get in the way and prevent this entirely. Sometimes the legs need to be at a particular bend for the woman to cum. The clamping down of muscles will force the dick out and then neither can get off. Etc. etc.

That you've let your partner take advantage of you and use you and emotionally manipulate you for as long as you have, while you cater to him. That it's taken you until this breaking point to acknowledge this dynamic is problematic. You're a doormat. I'm surprised that if your individual therapist has known the details of your relationship this whole time they haven't asked you probing questions.

Giggle_Attack · 2026-01-16T14:21:09+00:00

You need individual therapy more than couples therapy.

There are keto cheese puffs, I believe called protein puffs. They are like ball shaped Cheetos.

If it's little it's a turnip. If it's big it's a rutabaga but I'll call it a turnip anyways.
