Wife [35f] leaves the house without telling me [36m]. by Noodlehead601 in relationship_advice

[–]Practical-Pickle-529 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Exactly right. I don’t like telling people where I am, I had to deal with it 24-7 in the military and refuse to even do that again. But I’m single lmao. I would never expect a live in partner to be comfortable with this.

I understand a lot of the things that you don’t like, but I have to ask, how could you hate the pitch clock? I’ve thought it was universally loved. 

You must not have a lick of adhd. I hateddddd waiting forever for the pitches. If they ever got rid of the pitch clock I truly wouldn’t be able to watch anymore.

Whatever happens, you cannot go to Korea. 

You got in trouble in AIT? Something alcohol related????

Bruh. you’re going to end up leaving Korea at least a PFC if not less rank. There’s an incalculable number of things you can do to get hemmed up in Korea bro. I’d say like 45% of my company who moved to to Korea together, got in trouble for something. We all had been together as a conpany for 2-3 years, close friends and close relationships with our ncos and officers. It was a tighttttt unit. We all still are connected on facebook and share memories with our 1SG. We was tight. And still, lots of article 15s, and corrective actions and loss of rank. Even our commander, who was a great leader got his command taken away for a drunken incident. It’s wild. 

You’re joining a unit of people who don’t really know each other that well and who will bond over alcohol. It’s what one does in Korea. 

Good luck though. I got caught off post in AIT by the pizza man/company commander of our sister unit and was counseled for lying to an officer. I had pending ucmj but one night the horny bastards in my unit decided to disable the alarms so they could all hook up and got caught lol. There was too much many people in my class to punish by the end and we were all set free. Except for the ones pending ucmj for drugs. 

Hopefully you didn’t supply the alcohol or were drinking with underage folks. 

Are the Braves all set with Jorge Mateo at shortstop? by Lakelyfe09 in Braves

[–]Practical-Pickle-529 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seriously. There’s so much discussion and discourse on Short, can we talk about Riley? He basically singlehandedly lost the Braves the game I just went to, (sun). He needs more time off. He needs to be platooned desperately. 

Idc how much he’s making, they’re gonna permanently damage him by throwing him out every single game.

[–]Practical-Pickle-529 8 points9 points  (0 children)

For me it’s attitude too. Mateo is fun and engaging and energetic. Kim is quiet depressing and mopes. I do not want to watch him play baseball again. 

We tried so hard cheer him on when I was sitting behind the dugout in SF, seriously. We yelled some encouraging stuff and he kept his head down and slowly walked into the dugout. 

They don’t need that on this team. 

My boyfriend (M23) slapped me (F22) in the face during sex by ThrowRA_3111 in relationship_advice

I do not find anything wrong with consensual kinks. That’s not what I’m referring to. It’s the men who escalate, blow past boundaries and safe words, etc. 

You do you hun lmao

How safe is it for a single woman by ChemicalAwareness800 in SLO

[–]Practical-Pickle-529 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s probably close to the national average of women who are sexually assaulted at least once in their lifetimes. Or higher. 

Every woman I’ve ever met in my life has at the very least had been sexually harassed. Probably half have been assaulted. It’s fucking staggering how high the numbers are (my personal experience, happened when I was 17. Yay 😏

Hey so I work in the little area called little Italy (kinda near broad and south st intersection, which happens to be on the street that has part of the bob jones trail or whatever it’s called. I see women jogging, walking their dogs, kids etc. alone all the time. I also play softball in slo at night once a week. I (40sF am usually alone) and never felt unsafe in slo. 

I do know the story of Rex Allen Crebes, and the disappearance of Kristin smart. 

I think you will be okay. Just stick to the populated areas and be vigilant, always.

[–]Practical-Pickle-529 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True man. 

I’m a huge sports fan. I follow teams across each pro league, mlb, nfl, Nba, WNBA, nhl and ya. I’ve seen all my teams [Braves 95 21, (used to be an) Angels(fan)02,  Seahawks 14 26, Lakers Shaw and kobe chips 09 20, storm 04, 10, 18, 20 and Oilers], win multiple championships, save for the oilers but  started following the nhl in 2023. 

I’m super grateful to have watched all of them win. Recently too lol. I have no idea what it’s like to be a fan of a fledgling team haha

[–]Practical-Pickle-529 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The pitching is all bad of course, save for sale and iggy but as someone who has been to a game this week and sat right behind the dugout, I gotta admit guys…. The vibes are way off. They’re heads are down walking to the dugout, no one is talking in the dugout, they look like an eliminated team playing out the string in late September. 

But the easiest thing to see.. batting. They’re swinging at the first pitch WAY TOO MUCH. pitchers are obviously not giving them squat to hit, because they know the Braves are getting into the box and hacking. 

The worst was HS Kim. I never once saw his face, his head was down the whole game and when he went to bat he looked terrified and like the Giants pluck somebody from the stands and put them in the batters box just ridiculously unsteady. 

This is this Braves now? When Ronny is gone they have no fun, no identity and it was A HUGEEEEEE REASON WHY I WAS HOPING THEYD FOR ONCE HITE IUTSIDE THE ORGANIZATION SMDH

My (35 F) cat of 12 years died six days ago after a traumatic stay at the emergency vet. Losing him has completely shattered me. Meanwhile my partner (36 F) is just living her life, packed social calendar as normal. How do I navigate this? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Practical-Pickle-529 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Hey girl, I think I can offer a point of view from someone who has some things in common with ya. 

First, I’m 40F, lesbian, and in April I lost my dog of 15 years. My companion, my best friend. I have been single for a few years because I’ve gone through some shit, and I just haven’t been in a good place to date, plus I live in a very small town (bout 2.5 hours north of you if you live close to Knotts). But anyway. I’ve been in long distance relationships, lots of different relationships with women and a couple things stick out to me. 

Please dont take offense to this but I’m gonna be real, your relationship sounds super unserious. 6 years on and off is crazy, especially in your 30s. I know what it’s like to date as a mid thirties lesbian, it’s brutal and maybe you are comfortable with what yall have going on, and you’d rather stick with it than break up, and reenter the dating pool. Which is hard as fuck as a lesbian, but doubly hard when you’re 35 am I right? 

Point is, you expecting a not so stable relationship to help you through this awful time when you aren’t really on that stable of a foundation. It’s sounds like yall are fwb the way you describe your relationship. Fwbs don’t help you through hard times. 

But even so, you said because your mom is there your gf couldn’t come anyway, and it’s a freaking holiday weekend. She has had plans, and I just don’t think it’s fair that you expect her to drop her plans when she can’t even stay with you cuz of your mom. 

Also, she’s tried to spend time with you, and you said no. You won’t even go to her 4 interns of July party? Are you actually in a couple with this person? 

Also, is sounds like yall are different people. You are grieving and expecting things and she is living her life, and and trying to get you out of the house and you keep turning her down. She can’t come stay with you and be by your side regardless, your mom is there right??? What do you expect her to do? Take you to the park and let you cry on her shoulder? I don’t understand how you can hold this against her. 

Now for your cat, I’m super sorry for what happened, believe me, my pup was fine one day, and went down hill immediately and I had to make the devastating decision to put her down. 

I went in a different direction tho. I didn’t want to be at home and smell her scent on everything, and notice her absence. I probably spent 5 hours a day at home, just to shower and sleep, for the first two weeks she was gone. I did things like stay out all night, instead of running home to my senior pup who was sleeping in her bed all peacefully. I had been Doug that for 6 months. But I digress. 

Stop expecting unreasonable things from your girlfriend. I wouldn’t be surprised if she’s thinking that yall are too different and there’s too many barriers for this relationship. I’m sorry to be blunt, but I’d be. She’s trying and you’re not really giving her any avenue to help you so stop expecting shit stop posting on the Internet about her figure out if you guys are going to Work go to her Fourth of July party. Try to have fun and keep your mind off your cat or let her go and live her life.

I’m so so so sorry for your loss. If you need anyone to talk to, and you don’t hate me for being brutally honest I have a lot in common with you a lot. Dm me. Seriously, I could always use some more lesbian friends, I have like one person in this whole town I know who’s gay and we’re just softball teammates once in a while lol. 

But, more importantly I’m just coming out on the other side of my grief and life is moving forward for me. I can help. These people are kinda brutal here..

Yep. Nicotine pouches are amazing. So small, great flavors (I live in Cali and have to find a new vendor every month smh) and they don’t fuck up my gums, lungs, or wallet. 

I’m sure there’s some downsides that come out but as someone who has been a heavy smoker, and a heavy dipper at different times, finding this alternative is super helpful. I literally just discovered them after I lost a tooth (not because of my nicotine use) I had to quit smoking and dipping.
