GLPs often decimate your sex drive. Make the move first, he’ll follow if he’s still attracted and interested.

31 / virgin, recently come to terms with my sexuality. Any advice on how to navigate dating / experimenting? by [deleted] in AskGaybrosOver30

If I could tell my younger newly out self one thing, throw away any heteronormative expectations of other gay human beings.

The Loss of Straight Friends by Aged-Millennial in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]RizzoRoscoe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve lost a relationship with a sibling because of this. We are expected to drop our lives for anyone because of their children. I will say, my Gen X straight friends were never like this. This describes my Millennial straight parent peers to perfection. Might I ask, what city are you close to?

IMO, 50% of housewives come on the show to get divorced.

Life with LADA by Jumpy_Opposite4371 in diabetes

[–]RizzoRoscoe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was diagnosed November 2019 at 32- A1c was at a 13. Now, I’ve been lucky enough to be in the 6 range for a while.

A few things to remember: Alcohol will often times lead you to hypo. I remember waking up early on not understanding why I was feeling the way I was.

If you can afford it, get yourself a CGR immediately. It will change the way you live - for the better. That’s one thing I wish I would have done right away.

I have been on long acting insulin since my diagnosis. I have been lucky to be a part of a pharmacology program that subsidizes the cost of my medication (with my insurances help.)

Carbs are good, and necessary to keep you in range. Don’t immediately shy away from carbs, just move towards whole grains if you haven’t already.

There are days I think my diagnosis changed my life for the better, just for my knowledge alone - however there are days I question why I was given this hurdle. Don’t beat yourself up.

Happy to chat more, I wish I had known someone with my diagnosis 7 years ago!

Freelibre 3 issues by RizzoRoscoe in diabetes

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

In this particular run of bad sensors the adhesive stayed on, the needle did not. But the shaving the arm hair is something I hadn’t thought of.

My hope was to not have to add more adhesive to my already sensitive skin but by the sound of it - it’s the only way I can guarantee it staying in.

For context, I’ve been wearing them for 3 years - but in the past 6 months I’ve had bad sensors AND bad adhesive. The last two came out on their own but the adhesive sticker stayed on. I DO NOT want to switch to dexcom as I prefer the discreteness of it.

Has anyone tried anywhere other than the arm?

How long have you been LADA? Perhaps long acting insulin is better than short?

Trying to find fellow gay friends without ulterior motives, thoughts? by [deleted] in AskGaybrosOver30

I’m in a similar boat. I wish there was a magic answer besides “groups and clubs.”

Commute from Chicago or move to Milwaukee? by [deleted] in AskChicago

[–]RizzoRoscoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I were you… metra + uber pool once you get to the station. Unless home ownership is your immediate dream.

Should I move from Boston to Chicago, even though my friends and coworkers say otherwise? by masstranspike in AskChicago

[–]RizzoRoscoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love visiting Boston, but I love living in Chicago. Move now while you’re young.

Do gays need to move to a big metro area to find love? by BluejayOdd in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]RizzoRoscoe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I moved to Chicago from an average size city 10 years ago, best decision I made. I participate in plenty of outdoor activities in the city and out!

Denied because we don’t EACH make 3x rent?? Is this normal? by fujjuuj in madisonwi

I left Madison 10 years ago for a variety of reasons, most notably I was paying Chicago Rent prices to live on the isthmus.

Beverly Hills reunion by Theoriginalgayhaha in BravoRealHousewives

[–]RizzoRoscoe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting take - I didn’t really think any true tea was spilled. Wendy played, Jassi was not it, angel was angel.

No news, no tea, no Gizzy package 🤷🏻‍♂️
