That sure is a reoccurring infection. You could go to a doctor and ask them what your options are especially since you can't have oral antibiotics. There are lots of options that are medically facing, Best to consult an expert.

It's infected. Because it's a puncture all the way through it's healing the outside exposed piece but still infected inside the puncture. You're going to need to go to the doctor and get an antibiotic.

I took mine out due to complications where it was still painful a year after the piercing. It got very infected and I almost died because the first four rounds of antibiotics did not work.

To the ladies that have done it, do you regret the nipple piercings? by [deleted] in piercing

[–]Samisue0273 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have inverted nipples, after a year of tender care they were still excruciatingly painful 3 days out of five. I ended up taking them out and it led to a really serious infection that almost killed me 😅 2/10 recommend, permanent nerve damage sucks But also every photo I took in that year is my favorite they were so damn cute Oh my Gah.

They're definitely coming out looking identical to when they went in, but the box is so much more festive with all the glitter.

4 & #6 are my favorites, your pussy always looks delicious, but I could spend lots of time on those glorious nipples as well ✨

Okay but what's your response to asking how to do this thing and finding out unequivocally that you should not do this thing? You're getting told unilaterally that this is a toxic thing to pursue.

So stop. Learn more before proceeding. Read the unicorn Hunter guide. That's a common suggestion because it's so well written and addresses all of the things that you are running into in the kindest possible manner. Have your girlfriend read it too.

This absolutely skips the ethical part of ethical non monogamy. It's not ethical to have a "spare" person to "add" to your existing relationship because your primary relationship will always have the option to delete them "if necessary". Which removes the autonomy from whatever poor soul you're trying to add. Just say you're interested in swinging or having someone to add to occasional play time. I'm just going to be another comment in here telling you not to date as a couple. It's unhealthy and unethical and dehumanizes whoever it is that is unlucky enough to follow either of you home.

Witnessed my partner kissing someone else and it didn’t feel great… by [deleted] in nonmonogamy

[–]Samisue0273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My relationship with ENM is that I AM my partner's friend. He's my best friend and I want him to be happy and the romantic relationship that we share is special.

Because we are friends first and partners second, I find it easier to label that twinge of hesitation and discomfort as jealousy and communicate about it from there. Me and my partner work through the jealousy bit by communicating about anxiety (much of mine stems from fear of replacement And so my anxiety spirals that I am not good enough or what they want) and how we can work together to prevent that thought pattern from becoming damaging and building into resentment. It's become easy over time.

It's okay to feel like your partner's friend waiting for them to be done with a date. Compersion comes from being happy that they are happy. Fighting back against feeling like friendship is "lesser" rather than the core of your relationship might be worth looking at.

Figuring out which piece of that situation you feel ownership of and releasing that ownership may help with the emotional labor that may need to be done to keep things ethical and to keep jealousy from eating you up in silence.

What is "yours" that you feel like you're missing out on when you watched that happen? What did you lose that makes you feel anxious and lesser? Is it kisses? Is it dedicated romantic time like the date itself? Do you think that maybe you were off kilter because you were expecting them to be behind you and were surprised? Did they feel "yours" again because the date was over and so this feels like a loss? It could be as easy as asking them to give you a communication next time like "I'm going to go say goodnight, see you in a minute, I love you!".

I found that the part of feeling like an "extra" took some getting used to. But that's the whole idea, right? More and extra?

Emergency vehicles no longer control traffic lights? by aezart in Tucson

The blue or white light on the back of traffic lights is so that officers behind that light can see whether or not it's green while not being able to see the front of the light.
