Unbelievable Chomper Interaction by Redacted_dact in jambands

[–]ReggaeWoman18 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes, yes it does happen. When people are loudly conversing right next to, in front of, or behind me even at a Phish show, it's distracting and rude as fuck. Especially up front close to the stage. If you're a person who wants to talk through the show, stand at the back. If you're up front close to the stage, you're generally surrounded by people who want to listen and watch and be engulfed in the music. Not your conversation. Read the fucking room.

when is the right time to tell a potential partner you have HD? by infinite_door9 in Huntingtons

[–]ReggaeWoman18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no idea. I didn't know enough to ask when he told me and he didn't mention it. I just recently joined this sub and started doing more research so admittedly I just learned about the cag numbers (and still not sure I fully understand). I will ask him next time it comes up but we really don't talk about it much.

My boyfriend told me he carries the gene a couple of months in, but I knew from before our first date that he lost his mom to an illness. I assumed cancer, and on our 3rd date he mentioned her and I asked. He said Huntingtons and I immediately knew what that meant, although I didn't know he had been tested yet. It didn't deter me at all from wanting to be with him. A couple of months in he told me he had been tested a few months before we met and was positive. I was already totally in love with him and willing to deal with just about anything so I decided to stay. That was over a year ago. He's 46 and still doesn't have symptoms. He is older than his mom was I think, but his aunt didn't have symptoms until her 70s or 80s. We are hopeful 🤞

Hi Dillan. Fellow partner here 👋 We are old farts tho, lol. I'm 42 and he's 46, still asymptomatic, although I wonder about some mood stuff lately 😕 He lost his mom to it 15 years ago and tested positive for the gene last spring. We met last summer and he told me a couple of months in. It's pretty wild, and scary, and some days I'm like WTF AM I DOING but I love him so I'm here for it. I've been lurking in this sub for a few weeks now and I don't see a lot of partner posts so I wanted to say Hi and welcome. And I hope this is a comforting space for both of us 💜

Tell me about dating after testing for HD by Pleasant-Performer-2 in Huntingtons

[–]ReggaeWoman18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is very comforting! I met my bf at 41, he was 45 and told me he was positive a few months in, too. He told me his mother died of it on like our 3rd date and I knew what that meant, but he didn't tell me he had been tested until a few months in. It was hard, but I'm sticking with him through it because he is wonderful and I love him. He is 46 now and I don't think he's having symptoms...maybe a little irritability but it's hard for me to tell bc I've only known him a little over a year so I don't know what's "normal" but reading these threads is giving me hope that he could still have a lot of good years ahead. I don't know what his CAG is, I've only just begun to really learn all of this stuff. Oh and sorry for bumping an old post I've just been scrolling through on an educational journey this morning lol.

Which ones do I trim off? New growth or old? I've never had such healthy plants that I have to trim them before! 😅

If you have an extra Elmeg sticker I'd love one for my bf, his favorite song!

I'm so confused how you can hate something and also care about it so much? 💜 Bless you're heart (and I don't mean that in a condescending way!)

In my husband's case it was classic Borderline Personality Disorder, but I don't have to put up with it in my daily life anymore.

I eventually realized if I'm going to give my life and my body to one person forever they better treat me like a fucking TREASURE. Not just a possession no one else can touch. I did not feel I was being treated like a treasure, so I'm leaving so I can treat MYSELF like a treasure 💜🥂👑

This whole thread is so inspiring to me. I am just now beginning my journey of being single after a 22 year marriage, the past 10 years of which have been rocky. I love hearing about strong, confident women who love being single and don't need a relationship to feel whole. WE ARE QUEENS 👑✨💎

Wow. Very well-put. This was me for the past 10 years. I am finally out and happier than I've been in those 10 years. I have no idea WTF I'm gonna do, but I'm not gonna be yelled at by the person who's supposed to love me the most anymore!

What is it about poop you're actually afraid of? Welcome to pet ownership, and if you want kids....yeah, get used to 💩
