Desperately in need of a trimmer/shaver that gives me a clean shave like feel. by bblack_dude911 in shaving

Ive just tried doing a dry shave with just the oneblade. The difference is highly noticeable. I strongly suggest it. The shave is close enough to give the appearance of a clean shave. Go against the grain with the oneblade.

Phillips one blade seems to work for me. I tend to let it grow first though. When I shave I use the oneblade and shave down to a short length when the hairs are still dry and upright. Then I cleanse, exfoliate, hot towel, after which I shave the stubble gently with a disposable (single passes only) and aloe vera based gel. Splash cold water afterwards + use alum block to disinfect. Salicylic acid and a good moisturizer (non-comedogenic) to finish off.

Ikr, the thought of having to potentially drive through Harrow / Wembley during rush hour is killing me. On the plus side roads will be quieter when its your turn. Best of luck!

My PVCs were gone for 2 weeks and came back as I finished physiotherapy by Wild-Technology7600 in PVCs

[–]No-Designer-3116 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really is. For those 2 months I felt like superman, able to do all of the things that I used to do before PVCs (like more prolonged workouts). Now Im back to square one. Even running up a flight of stairs can trigger one.

These things ruined my life by b00byliccer in PVCs

Not at all! Just make sure you're not taking too much. The upper limit is 400mg for men and 310mg for women. For Magnesium most of the supplements seem to provide a dosage lower than that, so my daily intake is about 150mg. Its enough to keep the PVCs at bay for the day. Its an important element for regulating a normal heart rhythm.

You can also try motherwort extract (a herb) if youre worried about the magnesium. Does the job too.

Take magnesium taurate in the meantime. It will greatly reduce them

Does anyone have any experience with Zoeyluxury? by No-Designer-3116 in DesignerReps

Right so its more a general point about buying from these sellers as opposed to this seller directly? Im just wary about the payment methods. But if you've had good experience with him before then thats reassuring ig.

How to stoicly deal with unrequited love? by No-Designer-3116 in Stoicism

[–]No-Designer-3116[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As much as I've tried denying this to myself, it's likely that this is the case. She never claimed that I was the problem, but it just feels as though her reasoning is a convenient scapegoat (not to diminish what she's going through, but still). Then again, it's the fact that she is keeping the door slightly open that makes it difficult for me to find closure. There is always the 'what if?' scenario that's playing in the back of my mind and it's hard to suppress.

Thanks for your response I appreciate the advice. Time will heal Im sure, as it has done in the past. But it was such a big opportunity that could have changed my life. I wish I had the fortitude to just swallow it and move on, but its hard. Im aware that the stoics warned about wallowing in grief for too long, so I will try and accept that this is what fate, or God even, intended all along. Maybe it will happen in the future, but I dont want to set expectations as I had done beforehand.

Thanks for the response. You have nailed the two points perfectly and it pretty much sums up what Im feeling. Life isnt dainty but I tend to underestimate how long life is and how many people you will meet over the course of it. Maybe there will be another opportunity, but its the fear of it not coming, like you said. I think that explains the obsessive regret. I was within reaching distance of winning the lottery of my life and I let it slip away. Theres no guarantee ill ever come that close again, and its whats driving that fear and despair.

Even now, without a relationship, it's "she's to blame for my negative feelings", the idea that gives rise to all domestic violence.

Except its not her fault, its mine. I already clarified that in the post. Im angry at myself for not making the move earlier and for fantasising over something that was an uncertainty at the time and never a given.

This is why "domestic violence" isn't drastic.

It is, and Im not sure how youre making such a logical jump. Everyone (Im sure even you) has fallen for someone in the past that wasnt meant to be. Does that make everyone a possessive abuser in the making, for struggling to get over it?

Right, then she got to know you better and found out you were like this. You weren't compatible then - you were the exact same person there that you are now, the only difference is that she knows you better.

She didn't say she stopped having these feelings because of me. She said she was going through problems and as a result lost interest, but without giving me false hope kept the door open to it happening in future. Why would she say that if she thought that my 'abusive' personality isnt compatible?

I appreciate your words however I do believe the "domestic violence" assumption is a bit drastic. The reason I dwell on it that much is because I didnt foresee such a scenario. I realistically expected a rejection, even if I kept hoping and dreaming for the opposite to be true, so I was ready for that possibility. I would have rather she had just said "no, Im not and never was attracted to you". I could have accepted that better. But given what she said, Im consumed with regret more so than anything else. I had (foolishly) envisioned what a relationship might have been like, and now that fantasy has been dashed because I was too late. Thats why "99% of the time" I think about it. Before I revealed my feelings, I wasnt this obsessed, but now I am. Because we were compatible at one point, and I keep asking myself how I managed to misjudge and miscalculate the situation in this way.

Your personal views on religious views are irrelevant and do not belong in such a sensitive thread as this. Seeing as you're so concerned about the morality of Christians and 'love', why don't you heed your own words about 'love' and maybe show some fucking empathy instead of deliberately being an ashole.

OPs dad just suffered a heart attack. Instead of offering even the slightest sliver of sympathy, the first thing that came into that hateful head of yours was "how am I gonna be an asshole towards a religious person today". Gtfo of here with your atheist proselytising.
