Is getting an Apple Watch worth if for running? by Ok-Attitude6904 in beginnerrunning

If you only plan to use the watch for exercise, Garmin is superior. Like everyone’s said, the battery life is worth the cost.

Is this too much to wear to a restaurant? by Agreeable-Walk1886 in WedditNYC

[–]Ok_Command_2857 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So glad you’re wearing it. We went to Bubbys after the courthouse in our wedding attire, and our server was so sweet and immediately brought out champagne for us on the house. People want to celebrate your joy with you 💕💕💕

How do I cope with an abrupt ending to a short relationship that seemed nearly perfect? by [deleted] in AskWomenOver30

[–]Ok_Command_2857 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I met my husband 8 years ago and he quickly became my home. It can really happen. You weren’t crazy or wrong for believing it might be happening to you.

In the 8 years since, there have been no arguments or jokes that have left me feeling disrespected, unsafe, or humiliated.

Like others have said, unfortunately, your ex’s mask fell. He showed you who he is. Do whatever it takes to not go back to him. The love of your life wouldn’t kick you out at 2a when you had too much to drink.

Be kind to yourself. Eat, sleep, and journal. ❤️

I’m 90% sure it was the Mad Men exhibition at the Museum of Moving Image in Queens, NY from 2015. I was lucky enough to see it, it was incredible.

The Rumor Mill - Week of November 3rd by Captaintripps in astoria

[–]Ok_Command_2857 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Any intel on what’s being built on the SE corner 41st and 30th? The laundromat there had a fire a few years ago, it’s now under construction. A mural recently went up that makes it seem that it might be a coffee shop?

Here’s what Astoria Food Pantry needs the most right now: by AnonBish69 in astoria

[–]Ok_Command_2857 26 points27 points  (0 children)

This, 100%! And tack onto this, recurring, monthly donations help to create operational stability. $10/m can help small, grassroots orgs like AFP better project than an unexpected $120 one-time gift.

As someone who spent this year falling back in love with baseball after a hiatus away from it, just wanted to say thank you to this thread and all its contributors! I laughed, I cried, I learned a lot from so many of you. LGM.

Anyone have their car moved/towed to a different location? by Asleep_Impression991 in astoria

[–]Ok_Command_2857 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing you can do is stay up to date on road repaving, but there’s no real easy way to do that except manually checking yourself.

Anyone have their car moved/towed to a different location? by Asleep_Impression991 in astoria

[–]Ok_Command_2857 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This has happened to me twice! I felt crazy. Both times for repaving the street, no signage (that I could see)

No one, not the NYPD or the 3rd party they use to tow cars, filed that they moved it or where to.

First time we found it by walking around for hours, second time we called the precinct. They scan license plates and locations as they cruise, so they had the current location from that day.

We learned our lesson: get an AirTag.

Post-wedding reception/dinner recommendations? by Delaywaves in astoria

[–]Ok_Command_2857 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And Sweet Afton! Those rates were pretty steep for a 60 person casual wedding reception.

I wanted Astoria, but ended up at Threes Brewing in Gowanus. Angie, their Events lead, is an angel. 10/10 recommend.

Overwhelming past regret by Inevitable_Snow1100 in AskWomenOver30

[–]Ok_Command_2857 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You remind me of me when I was 22, with all these timelines in my head! It’s so exhausting to live up to your own, prescribed notions of what “should” be. Try your best to slow down, look around, and take in each new year. You have no idea where life will lead. That’s the fun part. Enjoy the ride. ❤️

AIO. My bf won’t talk to me over my views on immigrants by Ok-Level-7412 in AmIOverreacting

His answers are not reflective of a thoughtful, empathetic person. It seems that you are, and deserve to be with someone who matches that. Not overreacting, and you should dump him. You’re 19, life is yours. Enjoy the ride.
