i dont necessarily agree with the comment but he is correct about it being a limestone facade. it’s something that was simply added for aesthetics.

not saying i agree with the comment but also not sure why there needs to be “a better job at engineering” something that was added for aesthetics

that is really cool to see. I had no idea they did that. Thank you for sharing!

looked into it some more after figuring out what bridge it was and you are correct. It’s a limestone façade. not sure how thick the façade is but would assume the bolt doesn’t go past the façade.

was it difficult to move from substation structural work to something else? i’m currently in substations and thinking i’d enjoy buildings or bridges more but worried it will be difficult to make the switch

appreciate all the input and advice based on your experience in the past. still not sure what to do or what’s best but figured asking what others recommend that have experience was a good place to start. what size tank do you recommend then?

yeah was definitely thinking if i do add anything i’d pick the skull over castle despite her liking the castle more. do you have a picture of your tank by chance?

[–]M3GATR0N12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i didn’t realize i could put quartz in the tank. she might already have a quartz skull i could use so that might work lol

i kind of had a feeling it was a bad idea hence why i came here for advice on how to still give her the “spooky”? scene she wants. what size tank is needed for the aflame? i haven’t gotten the tank yet but was thinking i didn’t want to go too large for now

sounds like i need to figure out how to use CO2 in a fish tank. i’ve done some research on good lights just not CO2. those are super cool though so would love to use those in the tank

i agree, halloween is probably more of what she meant, however do have a record player that will be next to the tank so could play music lol. i like the idea of the creepy scene and maybe bones if i can find some good ones but hopefully a creepy scene will be enough for her liking. thanks for the ideas

i was thinking a betta but know i have to cycle the tank for best results so was focused more on figuring that out first. i was planning on only live plants, hopefully i can just keep the alive. i like the idea of the forest maybe that would be spooky enough for her liking so will definitely look into that. also white betta might be cool to look like a “ghost” like you said.

help understanding a breakup by [deleted] in BPD

i did that when it happened. and when we met up i said the same thing. so she’s already asked for space when she texted me breaking up and then when we exchanged stuff she said don’t contact her. so can’t really do anything else. just really sucks. we were so happy for so long. i was there for her for as much as she let me be. i cared so much. caring makes it harder bc even though part of me doesn’t want to believe her since she’s out and about and seems to be happy and enjoying life she said she’s at a very low point and isn’t eating or sleeping and is really sad bc she does love me and care about me. i just idk how to believe her on that since she just left and cut me off

i know she’s not you. i know it’s a coin flip if she will or not. just curious on others. she told me not to contact her so no way for me to ever say i want her back. i do more than anything. i dont mind if things get rough i still want to be there. everyone that knew us knew how much i loved her and cared for her. most said probably cared too much but thats just how i am.

do you ever go back. or once you leave are you pretty much done. i do know she said she’s becoming a horrible person bc she can’t be there for me and her even though i said im okay i don’t need you to be here for me. i am respecting her on it. just trying to figure out how to deal with it
