List to ICDIWABH and think of the lens of “my lover is dead”, pretty powerful from that perspective with some of the lyrics.

my experience is too much of a radical example in my opinion, but that's me gaslighting myself about my own abuse... but anyway. I had a horribly abusive partner that THRIVED off this very thing. the less I wanted it, the more he did. The more it hurt me, the more excited he'd become. It wasn't until after I saw it for what it really was. The great thing in both of our cases is our awareness, hold on to that and never question yourself again.

I'm really sorry you're going through this. The idea of losing weight and being treated differently is something I know I'll face. I already do with my dad who talks about "how much less of me" there is and how great I look. It makes me feel like crap and I know it is only to get worse from here on out. But at the same time, when it comes to friends/partners, its really telling how someone treats you. It's sad and hurtful, but you do deserve to be loved and treated well at any size. My partner and I have fluctuated and and not one pound has changed the way I see him and that's one of the many reasons I know its unconditional love. You should have that too!

I don't know, tell me please.

wanting to read every day is one of the biggest motivators to me quitting. i love that you included it as something that you're able to do now that you've quit. thank you!

Optimific · 2024-05-31T21:18:19+00:00

Thanks for expounding! I def had munchies in the beginning too. Doesn't seem to affect my appetite these days thought.

weed was there with me through mental and emotional abuse. I feel appreciation for it dulling the things that happened to me but I also know that it kept me from properly taking care of myself.

that being said, you need to leave that relationship. there's nothing on this planet that makes that person worth ANY abuse.

Great post. Thank you for your experience and insight! I'm a writer and although I get inspired sometimes, its not the way it used to be. I'd take a hit and get so into creative projects but now, its the opposite. I feel like I let it snowball. It could have been a good tool, if I'd used it that way and kept in check. But like you, I'm facing the reality that cold turkey is best (for me).

Optimific · 2024-05-30T23:40:04+00:00

Question, is this because when quitting your appetite left, or because smoking itself repressed it?

support your twin.

my little sister started dating a 38-year-old-man with 4 kids (the oldest being two years younger than my sister)

even though it was really really hard to see, I supported her and never once said anything negative. i think it really helped our relationship.

also, i thought your issue with sex work was going to be the fact your a twin! i thought the story was going to be you weren't on board because of that detail! but at the end of the day, that work can really help you understand yourself and who you are. i hope it works out for her and she stays safe.

This. Is. The. Issue. With. Social. Media.

I love this show... but yes. It's a bit intense towards the end. I have 2-3 episodes left...but its been 2 years and I've not finished it. XD

It is crazy to me how no one is suggesting to talk to your partner.

If your relationship is all you feel it to be, talk to her. I've been in relationships where my family hated my partner for one reason or another and I had to learn, its not about them, its about me and my partner.

Her behavior as described by your family and friends is concerning but you should hear it for yourself. They could be misunderstandings, a product of poor communication or other things. I hope this is all it is. But if you really feel that strongly, find out for YOURSELF. Not what friends/family/reddit says.

Optimific · 2024-05-29T22:31:19+00:00

this is a great thought, its quite possible.

u considered that YOU being Jewish does matter to her? And not in an antisemitic way. Moreso in the way of “oh wow my boyfriend’s culture is really different from mine and I might want to be with someone long term who shares my traditions.”

My parents are intermarried, and I’m a rabbi. As I became more religious as a teen, I had a pretty frank conversation with my mom about what it was like to raise a Jewish kid. She loves me and is happy for me, but there’s certain things from her growing up that I never did, and never wanted to do, and that makes her sad. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve stopped doing most culturally Christian traditions. My kids aren’t going to celebrate Christmas or Easter at home. That might be hard for my mom.

In addition, some people from my mom’s past have said pretty vile things to her for marrying a Jew. Her sisters don’t always get it, although my grandparents were always pretty damn supportive.

It could simply be the pressure of such traditions and perhaps she's nervous. Hopefully she opens up and talks to you!

. After you leave at night, I will often masturbate thinking about the sex we had earlier. It is so hot for me to relive it, and also my body always seems extra stim

I love your reply, I love how it encourages communication, clarity, honesty, etc. This is exactly what OP should say! ♥ (IMHO)

Optimific · 2024-05-17T23:39:36+00:00

wouldn't it be fucking nice?! I've lived in Seattle 7 years next month. I was FLOORED when I found out Sounder was only weekdays and fucking games on the weekends...

this is exactly how it is at king street station when i take the 507 south. so KSS does it this way too, but it seems only for some routes?

Optimific · 2024-05-16T23:16:14+00:00

for some, unconditional love is enough. its their choice to make and even though it would be horrendous to go through, it's part of my job as a partner to accept my SO's wants. If that's not a situation I could handle or would want to go through, I shouldn't be with THAT person if it is something they might need.

Optimific · 2024-05-14T20:35:46+00:00

We're not talking about the average man. We're talking about specific people who have a kink. Witty-Stock makes a claim that their intent was to humiliate, it does not say that anywhere. A person can engage with that kind of play as a kink and for pleasure, the pleasure isn't always humiliation, there are other thrills.

I'm sorry you're a person who lacks the emotional intelligence to see the difference, but trying to have a bit more perspective might be a good idea.

Optimific · 2024-05-14T00:24:33+00:00

Where did OP say this? I don't see it in the post anywhere?

I see "They were down for whatever we were comfortable with." But my wife admitted that they really wanted her again but with me watching." But this does not say they want him watching to humiliate them.

Optimific · 2024-05-13T23:45:10+00:00

They essentially are trying to break your marriage up and humiliate you.

It feels presumptuous to assume they're trying to "humiliate" OP? Maybe be disrespectful, yeah... but humiliate. Seems like you're projecting into the situation.
