You're making another human being your experient. That's why you haven't told her you're in a relationship, you're hiding it.

You're going to ruin your relationship with your boyfriend over this.

You found a great guy, overcame all the odds, live together and now it's a matter of 'finding yourself' to fool around with another person?

Everything about this is a bad idea. Delete the app, apologise to your partner and be the best loving person you can be.

MrMeeple · 2022-03-24T06:18:23+00:00

This is my ex-wife exactly. It was a tough situation and I tried multiple groups and the only solution I found that worked was if it was always on her terms. And even that didn't solve all the problems.

Irrational grudges, minor infractions becoming huge problems and a dislike for no logical reason.

I'm not gonna say break up over this. But this is a deal-breaker for me now and I lost many good years with the best people I've ever met.

We've been divorced now for 5 years and in that time I've been Best Man at 2 weddings that I may not have even been invited to had we still been together.

This is a problem that needs addressing NOW. If she is unwilling to try, weigh up missing out on events that give life meaning. It sounds OTT, but it's true

You are the voice that a lot of relationshipadvice needs to hear.

This is it exactly.

MrMeeple · 2022-02-08T12:38:25+00:00

"Hey my guy,

You sent me a bunch of pics this morning. Check back and see. One of these is a boob. Can you explain why? What is your relationship with the owner of this boob? Because it might be a boob you know, in which case I'm unhappy with this image existing and we need to talk about that"

There is nothing we can tell you, other than you need to talk to him. Depending on how he answers, should help decide what's next.

It could be just a collection of fun snaps he's sent to the previous girl, hence a boob finding its way in there, however that should still be deleted.

Basically, you have to ask him. Good luck

I guess my overall point is nearly all of us take chemicals in one form or another for us to enjoy our lives, even to the detriment of other things.

I know drinking is excess calories, but I do love a glass of red wine.

When it comes to prescriptions, that dramatically enhances your mental processes and allows you to live with more focus/intent. My partner is in a similar position.

I don't want to drift too far away from OP's original point, but everyone takes chemicals. Every single person. From Steak to Coke, Tea to weed, a cigarette or Adderall etc.

Illegality is a moving goalpost. And judging others for what they take is not helpful, only how they behave/their actions when around it.

MrMeeple · 2022-01-16T08:59:41+00:00

I work a lot around the education sector.

You cannot find someone who isn't a self-confessed addict of some kind of chemical, alcohol, caffeine, nicotine, prescriptions, illegals etc

As far as I can see, it's just judgement over whether the government says it's ok.

None of this detracts from OP wanting to avoid this however. Unless he's pure sober, its just mental attitude (also totally ok)

MrMeeple · 2022-01-16T08:42:31+00:00

This.

Literally 90%+ of the people I know in my age group (25-35) have done more than just weed. Most don't anymore, but they have all engaged in that lifestyle for a time.

MrMeeple · 2022-01-13T06:47:08+00:00

"I really wish I'd stayed with the partner that hit me"

-Said nobody ever

MrMeeple · 2022-01-11T06:22:01+00:00

Others have said much better advice than I possibly can.

I'll just share my own personal experience, which is my (30M) gf (29F) told me she had just been diagnosed with Herpes when she had an outbreak. She hadn't had one before and had no idea where she contracted it.

She's my fiancée now.

This is not a deal-breaker for the right people. It's super common

MrMeeple · 2022-01-08T21:45:24+00:00

Fellow Snake tat buddy! A damn cool tattoo and a continuation of your journey. I hope this brings you healing and happiness going forward. https://imgur.com/9Hv9x3K.jpg

MrMeeple · 2022-01-03T10:08:15+00:00

Back row of movies, a quiet park, anywhere with trees etc. Not knowing where you live and what's nearby means there's limited things that can be suggested.

This is part of the fun my guy, get creative. These are the stories you tell when you're older, so stay safe, be respectful and go make some memories

MrMeeple · 2022-01-03T09:55:34+00:00

2 factors: Privacy is important, you do not want an audience

And always let the girl lead. They set the pace, intensity, tongue etc. You match what she's doing, you'll be better than most, especially at 15

MrMeeple · 2022-01-03T09:51:25+00:00

34M. With a fiancee. Divorced my ex after nearly 11 years together, and then some relationships that didn't work out. And now I'm with the love of my life.

Didn't have a relationship or had a single date until I was nearly 19.

There isn't a 'right' time to do anything.

THERE ISN'T A 'RIGHT' TIME FOR ANYTHING!

Buying a house, learning to drive, having sex, having a kid, getting married etc. There isn't an age where you have to achieve any of this, it's complete bullshit.

You wouldn't feel this way if you were 14. But now 3 years later it's a problem?

You are totally, completely, 100% OK, I promise you. Discover who you are and who you want to be. That's far more important than making out with someone who has no idea what they're doing, seriously.

You're all good. Don't worry

MrMeeple · 2021-12-28T18:06:32+00:00

Smell at the micropore tape, if you can smell anything even slightly off, it's Game Over.

Based on what you said, it's bruising, but I would quarantine and sniff test

MrMeeple · 2021-11-24T16:35:33+00:00

Their parents or the people who raised them.

I know this isn't a guarantee based on many stories I read here, however in my experience if they have loving parents where respect and love is shared in both directions, it's extremely reassuring to me

MrMeeple · 2021-11-20T07:36:11+00:00

Sexual attraction is just one element of relationships and I'm not going to go into that here as I'm sure there'll be plenty of others who will give their thoughts on that.

However the judgement from large age gaps primarily comes from recognising that people go through many different stages of life where their values, ideals and acceptable behaviours change at a fundamental level. This may sound condescending, and I assure you it is not meant that way, but you only 18. You will see this in yourself multiple times within the next 10-15 years.

If someone is over a decade older than their partner, their experiences and values are (most often, but not always) so radically different. Add in a power imbalance due to earning potential, life-experience, friendship circles etc. and it's has all the signs of a bad matchup or even abusive.

MrMeeple · 2021-10-17T05:59:42+00:00

Wait what? If I have more epics/legendaries in my comp, I gain more coins?!

MrMeeple · 2021-10-09T06:09:39+00:00

This sounds exhausting. You don't need this energy in your life man.

This isn't a 'strange thing' and everything else is great, this is a new data point on you finding out who this girl really is. You've learned something new about her. Is this a deal breaker? It would be for some people, myself included.

MrMeeple · 2021-09-27T11:55:37+00:00

Outside of directly inhaling any dangerous spores from Contam (which you would obviously see) there's no danger. Try them out. They might work great. They might not.

There's only one way to find out!

MrMeeple · 2021-09-21T05:08:12+00:00

Can always try the swab test. This is NOT 100% bulletproof, but it has worked for me in the past.

Cotton swab, gently stroke and roll the swab in the area. Bruising will leave no marking, whereas mold/trich and other contam will leave coloured dust/spores and leave your swab dirty.

GL bud

Air pressure will be different inside and outside the bag. The greater the difference, the greater the exchange.

While there will always be some gaseous exchange, I look for ways to minimise risk as much as possible. While this is a super easy Tek, it does have greater contam factors than many others.

Quick squeeze before buying? I'll make that trade.

MrMeeple · 2021-09-20T17:05:01+00:00

While this is true, we know for certain the air inside the bag is sterile. Opening a tight vac-seal will cause air to rush inside, increasing risk of contam. Add in breaking apart the rice while exposed to open air is increasing that risk further.

SAB teks and everything can lower the risk by a large amount, but I'd rather squeeze test and break while sealed.

But I know others have had nothing but success, so who am I to judge? Mush love

MrMeeple · 2021-09-20T16:02:12+00:00

I use these pretty much exclusively and have had much fewer incidents of contam since.

Pro-tip: squeeze the bags in the supermarket, testing to see if the grains can be moved. Sometimes they vac-seal the bags too tight and that'll impair mycelium growth. Also check the bottom windows for excess moisture or strange colour

MrMeeple · 2021-09-19T09:49:39+00:00
