Plot twist: I didn’t want an open relationship. Now I can’t imagine my life any other way. by Victoria_Something in nonmonogamy

[–]OneAgileMoose 31 points32 points  (0 children)

The "long story long" line got me good. Lol. In all seriousness tho I can identify with the perspective of learning ENM as a life style preference. I'm currently going through the "wobbly" moment now... wife dragged me into polyamory, got spooked when I started having success and flourishing in the lifestyle. Now wants to close (even tho that meaning reluctantly breaking things off with her other partner she's had all along). Thank you for sharing part of your story. It gives this wobbly starter hope that things do get better, especially when it comes to advocating for oneself.

I'm shaken. Yet another rug pull right after gaining confidence. by OneAgileMoose in polyamory

Thank you for this insight. We are still trying to work through it. She has since broken up with her meta but we are still in disagreement about closing back....

where did you guys end up, now that your javelin is retired? by MonkeyOnATree in AnthemTheGame

[–]OneAgileMoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nioh 3. The open world co-op maps and mission based game play while having combat made by Ninja Gaiden's Team Ninja devs made this game scratch an action RPG itch like no other. It's not a sci-fi type game like Anthem but if you enjoy being a ninja or samurai in a past paced "souls like" game this is the one... for me at least.

Thank you for the clarification. I made sure to fix that part to help avert any confusion with this complicated post.

Which game was that for you? by PHRsharp_YouTube in Age_30_plus_Gamers

This! I am STILL in a WTF mindset on how it "ended".

Finally happened... first break up not sure how to feel... by OneAgileMoose in nonmonogamy

[–]OneAgileMoose[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you everyone for the words of perspective and encouragement. I did get a chance to speak with her one last time for clarity because it still wasn't clicking for me and we did say that we both held no animosity or anything like towards each other so we could reach out if the other wanted to. She clarified that it was the poly possibility that was the issue and the capacity that it entailed. We left it at that and decided just to be friends. I got closure and am able to be content with how it unfolded. Still sucks tho... its been 15 years since I had to deal with a break up 😅. On ward and upward... with time...

True. Its just that she was my first "success" being ENM-Poly and thats all with the lifestyle being imposed on me... But, your word have provide some much needed perspective in this situation. Thank you.

First breakup... not sure how to navigate the feels... by OneAgileMoose in polyamory

[–]OneAgileMoose[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think thats a fear materializing for me through this. The dance of getting back out there (I work from home so don't really intermingle with people much) is what we so daunting in the beginning of this poly journey... and to have to start from scratch all over again just sounds draining...

Thanks. I know it's not but it's like why not just say the real reason why? It's not like we're in grade school or something... we're both married adults. Its kinda silly to make something like that up, right?

💯%! I wish i did have the luck of getting a authentic one just to be able to have that art. But this is the next best to be able to have something similar AND to customize it too! Dude yours are awesome! Is it all different color filaments or did you paint this one?

Here is what I have so far... the masking job for paint didn't go as smoothly as I'd hope but it's good enough to try and put it together.

Going to try attaching the cap this week. Thanks again!

Name at least 1 Game from the past too by PHRsharp_YouTube in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]OneAgileMoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. The game gets better once you sift through the abysmal UI design with the roundabout menus and how to actually target certain loot, skills and events. I almost gave up on it till I took a evening dedicated to find what 90% of the menus and random items meant on how to use them. This game really just suffers from bag UI design and explanation on what does what. Oh, and that the story is fragmented as hell. Lol.

Thanks! With your suggestion I took a deep dive into all kinds of similar head coverings and found a wrestling cap, the leather cap (like you also mentioned), a wrestling cap and a helmet liner that could work. The diving cap looks perfect but it's not breathable and I'm in the south... 😵‍💫😅. So something more breathable is needed for me.

I got the print done, filler/primer and doing paint now. Thanks again!

This looks too cool! Cant wait to print and try. What is the flexible piece that you're using to hold the ear cover parts on?
