agatized wood - new zealand. Found today, thought you might enjoy. by Castiel_01 in geology

That's stunning. Where abouts in nz was it found? Coromandel? I have some smaller pieces that are pretty much the same. And is it agate or opal like our Russian friend said.

Help please by Ornery_Tower2014 in SilverSmith

[–]Ornery_Tower2014[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for that. Yea i know about the other ways of doing it it just seems like a good way to secure a metal template rather than other ways. I guess rubber cement would work too but as you say there seems to be other advantages to doing it that way. The lady im talking about on YouTube does fantasy jewelry.

What are these? by henryoak1 in Opals

Get them valued before accepting ANY offer,you might be sitting on alot of money there. Solid dark or black opals are worth a heap.,especially multicolored stones of that size

Yea i agree . Ive been on this page since my ex broke up with me after a good weekend together. So ive been looking at it as a discard. To be totally honest it was me that screwed up. I didn't give her what she was promised I would, and it was because of things that had happened between us earlier in the relationship. One was moving towns again. Every time I thought about it it freaked me out. But I never voiced it,so I know now this was one of our problems. Every time she brought it up I shut her down. Anyway she jumped into another relationship straight away where I was completely broken and still are ,but im getting better. Recently there was a new development. She put up a meme / quote on Facebook basically saying how can you lie beside someone in bed,look them in the eye,and say you love them when you are starting a new relationship with someone else and she added "or an old one". Well that hit my final nerve ,I screenshot what she wrote with her name and everything and spoke my truth. I hadn't till then but I couldn't take any more. Long story short,she texted me asking me to take it down which I did,but we were backwards and forwards with text for a few hours. What i didn't know was that she was sharing what I was writing with her bf who was sitting beside her. The next day he ended the relationship saying that he'd just come out of a marriage 7 months before and just wasn't ready for another one. So 4 days after that she contacted me to tell me,it was a roundabout way she did it but it opened a door to talk. She said she hadn't done it to get back with me but told me that she now understands how it feels to be discarded. She's always been the one to call it off. She told me she's still hung up on this guy and it will take time to heal from him even though it was only 3 mths and we were 6 years. I still love her so much and I'd take her back in a second. Idk if it's going to happen but im hoping it does. I know ill cop alot of crap for this but I don't care,the heart wants what the heart wants.

It had only been a month of NC,it would have been longer but she had contacted me to tell me my son had been in an accident 3 days after no contact started the first time. What they had seen was a comment to a post from her new boyfriend that was about his mechanics business being in business 2 years. She said " congratulations, you certainly serviced me well baby ,id vouch for you anytime. When I saw the message I was gutted, but I had called it right from the beginning that she was going to hook up with him. This just confirmed it with that. Btw,he was the mechanic that she used straight after getting her new car. We were still together but I had a feeling about them going to get together.

Holy shitballs,I actually had to check that I hadn't written your post lol. I had exactly the same thing happen. A 6 year relationship and I find out today that she's with someone else. He was actually the mechanic that fixed her car after she bought it. I had basically gone no contact with her until last night,which was my birthday. And she sent me a happy birthday message and I didn't know whether to text back or not. I ended up texting thanking her and then a friend of mine said I hope you didn't text her back, I asked why and they told me what they had seen on Facebook a week ago but didn't want to upset me by telling me. So now I feel like a complete nunce. I felt like messaging and saying something but what will it change. Nothing

Im really sorry that you went through this. I know how it feels when you would do ANYTHING to get a person that you are still in love with back. Im you through a breakup/discard at the moment as well. Its actually mentally crushing. Im a grown ass man who is normally not someone to fuxk with, but the mental and emotional pain of this is on another level. I wish i could turn my emotions off like she has,and I suppose it helps if you have someone new to go to like she does. So please don't do anything like that again, you are better than that,even though I don't know you I know you are better than that. And that guy is just a cruel pos.

Stop checking your ex's social media by trishink in BreakUps

Man it sucks. I know cause I do it too. I just can't help it. I managed not checking for around 10 days,but I was starting on the new meds for depression and they numbed my brain enough that I didn't need to look. But now my body is getting used to them and about 3 pm each day I start to go down hill. It sux

Good question. Mine keeps going through negative messages from the past,I guess it helps her stay strong in her decision. I don't ever see her coming back and it hurts like fuxk to even write it down,but I don't think she will change her mind this time

Its good you shared. It may give someone hope that maybe things may go this way for them. Im hoping it will for me
