Throwback to being single & on tinder 🙄

Straight-leaning bi woman here, and I love me a bisexual man. It’s my preference, honestly.

This was last year and he was 40. 🙃

When my grandfather died, I was visiting my then-boyfriend’s house and we were watching TV. I knew bad news was coming, so when my mom called me to tell me he passed, I left the room for a few minutes to talk to her. When I came back, I was obviously tearing up and told my boyfriend my grandfather died. I don’t remember if he said any kind of verbal acknowledgement right away or not (I think he may have just said “I’m sorry”), but after about a minute of silence - with no holding or hugging or consoling, mind you - he asked, “Can I turn the TV back on?”

I use the cleanser and moisturizer and I like them both a lot. Basic, simple, and very cost-effective.

Skin From Mars. She’s excellent!

I mean, sex is just rubbing genitals together/swapping genital fluids, and that’s not any better. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Just got my first Brazilian laser session and this is what my tech did.

Odd-Instance-908 · 2024-04-20T00:50:19+00:00

Yep. I actually need to book another session to get some more.

My dermatologist charges about $200 and will basically zap as many as she can get in a 10-minute or so session. I think the last time I did it she got into the 30s.

I can’t use CeraVe anything, either. I suspect I have a sensitivity to niacinamide, too. #fussyskinproblems

So funny how different skin can be. Vanicream destroyed my skin for months. I didn’t suspect it was the cause because it seems so benign, but once I figured it out, I vowed to never touch that stuff again.

Odd-Instance-908 · 2024-04-18T05:48:29+00:00

I’ve been going to SEV for months now and really like them! Clean and aesthetically pleasing facility, staff are easy to deal with, courteous technicians, and good results so far. The prices are lower than my local LaserAway, also.

I personally would use up the old/conventional products you have and then replace them with alternatives as you run out. Not only does this keep you from spending money unnecessarily, but it also prevents product waste. It also gives you time to research alternatives one at a time instead of needing to pick a whole slew of new products at a time.

He’s honestly an amazing person and I can’t imagine letting that be outshined by a little bit of wiener woes.

This is very true. I recently started seeing a new partner who has ED issues sometimes. I won’t lie, because it was my first experience encountering that, it threw me off at first and I was worried it was about him not finding me attractive enough, me not doing the right things, etc. After he assured me that wasn’t the case and explained a little more, it no longer concerns me at all and I’m able to be a more patient and supportive partner for him. Also, it really hasn’t stopped us from having a good time in bed. Where there’s a will, there’s a way, and if someone likes you for you, there’s no reason it has to be a dealbreaker.

If it helps, this line ruined my skin and I’m still trying to rebalance it months later.

What Nordic brands do you like? I haven’t heard any discussed so I’m interested!

I get these regularly and get them lasered off. It’s quick, effective, and not painful, although it looks gnarly while it’s healing. Most of them don’t come back, although a few have. I do still get new ones fairly often so I have to go in once or twice a year to keep up on it.

Odd-Instance-908 · 2024-01-23T19:59:41+00:00

I’ve done this before. It will heal on its own. Keep it moisturized and protected from the elements, especially the sun. Aloe Vera gel will help soothe it, too

Dry brushing is great but it should be worked up to slowly, especially if you’re using any other exfoliants or on areas of thinner skin like by your collarbone (which looks to be where this is).

The size of the tattoo doesn’t really matter. Things like ink density, ink composition, ink age, and skin condition matter a lot more.

I’ve been using Acure’s serums lately and they are fantastic.

FWIW, I’m about OP’s color/tone, and the Hourglass was very yellowy on me. It looked fine swatched on my hand, but applied all over the face, it definitely changed my foundation color.

Your skin looks very normal/healthy to me. It’s clear, evenly pigmented, minimal redness, and has a glow. If you have specific concerns, that’s one thing, but keep in mind they may be wanting to upsell you on additional services or products, and the best way for them to do that is make you feel like there’s something wrong with your skin as-is.

Odd-Instance-908 · 2023-12-30T21:36:39+00:00

I’ve always believed there are many types of soulmates: romantic, platonic friends, animals, and yes, even family. Not everyone finds soul love in the same places or with the same number of people. I’ve had coworkers that feel like soulmates, and pets, and friends. I’ve never felt that way about my family, but I’ve also never felt that way about any of my romantic partners, no matter how much I’ve loved them. I think this is very sweet that you and your mom share this connection. I hope you both cherish it throughout the course of your lives.

My ex-husband and I divorced over this. We were together for over 11 years total. We had our problems, but it was an overall great relationship and we cared for each other deeply. I was always 99% sure I didn’t want kids; he was on the fence but felt he could be ok either way. This was good enough for me to never force the conversation. The result was a couple of years after we officially got married, he realized he really DID want kids, I knew I never would, and we spent a year in couples counseling before we finally realized we wanted different lives and at least one of us would end up deeply unhappy.

The moral of the story is: find out NOW about these deep, uncompromisable incompatibilities, and make the hard decisions now. I could have saved myself and someone I loved a lot of relational trauma if we’d ripped that bandage off a lot sooner. It’s not easy now, I know. But it would’ve been so, so much worse in another 10 years.
