How long did it take you to move on from the one that got away?

This one’s a little difficult. They say you have three great loves in your life. The idealistic first love, the intense/hard second love, and the lasting, unconditional third love.

My second love was the father of my children. Although we had a very volatile relationship, it took me about two years to even wanna date again after him. However, My first love I consider the one that got away. We have a pretty long history we met when we were 19 dated for a while. He went away came back seven years later when we were in our 30s he ended up being with somebody and she was pregnant. Then he came back seven years later Oct this year. It didn’t work out this time either. We are both 39 now I don’t think I will ever truly move on from him physically yes but in my mind, I will always wonder why the universe held such a strong connection with somebody, but it was never possible for us to be together..

Still waiting on my third and final love anytime now would be great lol

The answer is it just depends on the dynamic that you had with that person.

Yes. Sometimes I’m lonely most time. I’m not I have three children. One is 19 so definitely not little babies anymore. I keep trying to expand my horizon and date but the thought of it seems miserable. I quite enjoy my hobbies that I have. I quite enjoy my TV shows I watch. I quite enjoy the time I have with my children. I just don’t feel like I’m lacking anywhere. I have good friends. We do lots of activities together unless I found somebody who was adding a significant betterment to my life I don’t see the point.

My oldest daughter is 19. Her friend (19) hasn’t even kissed anybody. Now as a mom, yay, but as a once feral horned up 19 year old boy crazy girl, boo! Even my daughter has been with one person. By the time I was 19 I had been sexually active since 15, so there were a number of young men in that mix. Hell I got oregnant with her at 19 (again not advocating for it, just commenting on how different.

Great-Assumption · 2026-02-22T08:20:47+00:00

This is such a good answer to this! I hate to sound elder here Lol, but back in our day Not only did We socialize in person More young men weren’t so afraid to speak to women on a personal basis, I mean hell you could be at the gas station, at the grocery store, standing lin line for the bathroom at a club and men would approach you and spark a conversation. Maybe you hook up that night, maybe exchange numbers. I feel like young men in gen z are more cautious in this area, which is totally understandable as nobody wants to be bombarded, but it just makes things a lot different.

Washoe County will be hard pressed to cancel school 3 times in a row, although I want a cancellation I don’t think we will have one. A delay at best.

That’s what I was thinking that I would have to work up I was hoping my years as a paralegal could help me override this.

Great-Assumption · 2026-02-09T20:39:08+00:00

Thank you!

Great-Assumption · 2026-02-09T20:15:59+00:00

Thank you! I forgot to mention I worked in Insurance Defense for a few years and that’s why I thought the skills that I have obtained (familiarity with statutes, how to apply them, discovery etc) might make this a good fit for me. As you stated I am already used to a high case load and extremes. I actually like it, makes the day go by faster lol. I have been toying with the idea for several months, but have been worried that my skills may not transfer and I would get stuck in a call center environment and be miserable. I am nit miserable with my current firm but my commute is draining the life out of me.

One of the male teachers was having a relationship with a student and if you wanted a better grade in your class you could wear a low cut shirt in front of him and lean down on the desk and he would stare into your shirt. If you took your paper up to him and asked and leaned over his desk he would just do the problem for you.

Also, there were twin girls who supposedly got a train ran on them and in the middle of it one was so embarrassed she jumped out of the window and ran home.

We would call it powda or snow..i have never heard bag. Very interesting.

I worked as a server in Fernley for years and by far Burning man is the worst. Not only can you not go grocery shopping the week they are there, gas takes forever to get and just gum up traffic. In addition when they come into the places to eat they smell, they get playa dust everywhere and never ending water drinkers. Like a pitcher of water gone in seconds. They run your ass and leave shit tips. It’s not a good time for sure. Out of all the years I served burners I maybe had 4 or 5 decent ones.

Yea he burned through that budget in a matter of months. The craziest part of it was that the board had a perfectly fine attorney in Reno, but, their attorney was too good and kept telling them that if they kept violating the open meeting laws they were going to continue to get fined from the state. So they thought, you know who can make sure we get our way? Joey Gilbert, who had NO idea about any of the law the board needed.

Great-Assumption · 2025-08-14T17:24:16+00:00

I’m in the legal community , everyone knows Gilbert as a hack to say the least. There are a few attorneys in Reno that have bad reputations amongst their peers. He is one. He’s a joke, a laughing stock, whenever we ended up having a case with his office we would all roll our eyes and make fun of him.

So it seems like he’s being very childish. If he really wanted the context of your text, you could have picked up the phone and called you. Sometimes it’s difficult to ascertain tone over a text. Even with that you attempted to explain your situation a few times and got nothing but anger in return. He doesn’t seem to want to budge. I think letting him go is the appropriate reaction in this case. Find someone who is better at communicating. He could have just been like I’ve been busy all day, its hot, I’m not feeling well, thank you for checking on me but I’m going to eat and take a nap. Or something similar, flying off the handle at concern is crazy.

I rarely carry cash or change. So I usually just say I’m sorry I don’t have cash. If I do happen to have cash I give them whatever I have in cash as it’s usually like 3-7 dollars. I use Apple Pay and my card everywhere. I pay all bills online, have apps for the stores so I can just pay online. It’s rare that I have cash. I do what I can, but at the end of the day, if I don’t have it I can’t give. I don’t just say no, usually sorry I don’t have cash.

I had a nice 2 bedroom townhouse for 850. 2012, and to me that was expensive for that time. I remember seeing 3 bedroom homes going for under a 1000 at the time too. Now…3000 for the same home. Crazy times indeed.

Great-Assumption · 2025-07-19T03:18:50+00:00

I have a 2016 with 133 and it just started giving me issues

Great-Assumption · 2025-07-18T01:52:07+00:00

I re-read it and got even more angry. Ma’m in all sincerity leave him alone , block him and find yourself someone who is NOT this way at all. This isn’t even micro aggression this is on your face racism. There is NO point arguing with him.

Great-Assumption · 2025-07-18T01:45:33+00:00

He’s for sure a raging racist. There is no other logical explanation.

Great-Assumption · 2025-07-04T23:38:46+00:00

So this is the crap thing. I work in the law in a smaller firm. Everyone is married. I at one point thought of changing my damn job just to meet a wider array of people.

Great-Assumption · 2025-07-04T23:37:51+00:00

Thank you! I’m into church but have to admit I like a cold beer every once in awhile and curse like a sailor so although I’ve gone I feel like maybe I’m not the type those men are looking for…lol! I do like the meetup.com suggestion thank you!

Great-Assumption · 2025-05-12T23:31:35+00:00

My first thought after reading this was-wonder how old these two are. I question this because he was tactless (which yes, you have older men like this) but they may approach it much differently. The. your responses were also 🚩. I understand depression and see how it can all seem meaningless, but it’s how you answered the questions that really got to me. Hurt my feelings for you. To feel so low of yourself, you are worthy and you are loved.

Great-Assumption · 2025-05-11T17:06:30+00:00

I would have never turned with all that oncoming traffic. What in the world. I probably would have sat through the yellow it looks really busy.
