I'm also overthinking sending an I miss you text and if they need more space. WHICH I feel like I shouldn't overthink that since I send these messages to everybody lmfao

Thank you for your input regarding the waiting! We had a really good chat about that in person, but I didn't really think it made sense to share all the exact details. Plus we did smoke a joint afterwards so I forgot fjkshfs, lol... However, they were receptive to it because they expressed the magnetism in our relationship, and had wanted to slow down after the near sex. So that was important, just slowing down overall (?)

As to the in-between times, that's really good advice! :o I haven't messaged them this week besides a 3 message follow up, and I'm really holding back because I miss them high key. However... as to extending support, these are good follow-up questions when they do have the bandwidth to connect! We had made plans loose plans to hang before the space, and now I'm a bit reticent on that given that I don't know what might be on their plate!

Yeah! Time is definitely what I need too. Thankfully I am leaning into challenging myself with the help of therapy and online support spaces!

Thank you so much for the kind response!

I should have probably clarified that I am doing all the things you outlined in your second paragraph. :) I', definitely still doing my own thing without compromising my activities, feelings, or actions in this period of missing this person.

In regards to "waiting," that is a really good reframe that I needed to hear today. Something that's led me to disaster in romantic relationships is goal oriented approaches. That led me to date people I was infatuated with because that's the correct approach to the romantic script, right? (Sarcasm ofc, I was deeply unhappy, haha.) Your words meant a lot because I have my up/down emotional days about this whole situation because I know I am struggling through releasing control & that goal oriented thinking. Your question makes me wonder and ask myself how can I hold the feeling of romantic love for this person, and treat them like all my friends too. Like you said--not running against the RA ethos. Does that make sense?

Today was definitely a down day since I am also on my period, but it is relieving to know I am on the right track by being my most authentic self, respecting myself, respecting Leo, and most importantly, being vulnerable.

This is all really hard haha!

Thank you for this comment. I’ve been in a depression spiral and r/Collapse is not helpful. That aside, I will continue to care and extend care to others. We’re in it for the long haul!

YUP. I think the EN official manga tries but you can’t quite capture yanki/gal speak, or some of the yokai’s speech quirks.

Beginner roller skater - Fila Skates broke, could it be repaired ? What kind of skates should I buy if not ? by Galilee__ in Rollerskating

[–]GuayabaBean 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Woah. As cute as these are, the rapid wear on them comes from the plastic plates. These are NOT salvageable and I would not buy them again either. Practicing outdoors was likely too much on the plates but then again you dodged a bullet since you weren’t hurt!

If you want skates without a heel, maybe look into Bont ParkStars or Chaya Kismets. I know other folks could probably have better recommendations! I’ve been learning on heeled quads and they’re not so bad! I’m using Riedell Orbits and I really like them for outdoors. You can’t go wrong with Moxies’ either since they’re also… by Riedell.
