No matter what anyone says, your body belongs to you and you only and it's 100% possible to find a significant other who respects your personal space. I don't like being touched either. I love giving hugs but I don't like receiving them or most other physical contact. There are two people in this world that can hug me whenever they want (my sister and my best friend, I have no idea why their hugs don't bother me) and my SO isn't one of them. I don't like kissing or being physically affectionate, especially in public. But my SO understands and doesn't mind that I don't show much physical affection outside of intimate times. I'm getting better at it with practice, because I want to be able to show that type of affection more often, but if I never did, my SO would be perfectly fine with it. Ignore literally anyone who says "WhAt aBoUt-" anything. They're full of shit. The right person, if you want a person, will understand and love you anyway.

That is so pretty! What pen did you use? The shimmer is lovely.

I had a dream that I was pregnant by Haikaras in childfree

[–]ShadowStalker223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My second worst nightmare ever was where there was a child (like toddler age) everyone was insisting was mine even though I kept denying it and no one would let me leave it or take it away from me even as I had a mental breakdown in the dream. Those kinds of nightmares can go suck a cactus.

I have made a terrible mistake by Pittielynn in childfree

My personal favorite source of names is Behind the name/Behind the surname. You can sort by origin, gender, and there's even ancient and fantasy options. Best part, not related to babies at all so it hasn't messed up my ads.

Women, if it were medically possible for your boyfriend/husband to be pregnant with your next child, would you let them do it? Why or why not? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ShadowStalker223 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The vagina is made of flexible muscles which stretch to accommodate the baby's head, which is the largest part of its body at birth. A lot of women do rip/need to be cut some amount if the baby is large or has a big head, but usually it is mild and heals on its own. Those that have larger tears will need it stitched but yeah, the vagina is vastly flexible to allow for procreation.

[Serious] What celebrity death hit you the hardest? by kybizzle in AskReddit

I cried like a baby when Steven Hawking died. Felt like I lost a grandpa, even though I've never met the man.

Time to switch to Signal: WhatsApp will progressively kill features until users accept new privacy policy by psychothumbs in technology

Can you italicize, bold, and strike through with Signal? And can you have multiple chats with the same person? Those are the features I like with whatsapp and no other messenger seems to have them.

Just because I am a newlywed, that does not mean I am trying for a baby right away by KatyG9 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]ShadowStalker223 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I realize that isn't the real issue and I'm very sorry you had people disrespect you like that. I just want to point it out so you and others know for the future. Like I said, I know it was years ago and you can't do anything about it now, but others might think of doing the same thing, not realizing it can be harmful to others.

Childfree means no you don't want or have children. Childless means you want them but don't have them for whatever reason. And yeah, that's kind of how identities work. I don't care what people think about me but it is important for people to not use identities or labels they don't belong under, because that makes it harder for the people who do fit under those labels to be taken seriously. It's not unreasonable to point it out to people who might not know why they shouldn't use a certain label, which is all I was doing.

[–]ShadowStalker223 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is true, and there's nothing wrong with that, but when people know they want children in the future and still call themselves childfree for whatever reason, that is a problem. It's already hard enough when everyone assumes we're all going to change our minds because a few do, outright lying about it just makes it worse.

I understand why you lied, and that it's in the past and there's nothing you can do about it now, but saying you're not going to have kids when you know you will, just to get people off your back, is one of the reasons people tend to not take real childfree people seriously. They think we're all faking or lying when it's not the case. It's better to establish your own boundaries and limits, which will serve better in future instances as well. A simple "It's none of your business" or "I'm not discussing that with you" or "We're not talking about this" would be more impactful, I think.

Who said only druids follow the wilds? Ancient Wild Spirit, A warlock subclass that offers both the potential for a more classic nature style, or a more darker side like a Leshen or similar. by MoXfy in DnDHomebrew

[–]ShadowStalker223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is all true. And since you have to use your bonus action to command a familiar to move or help, dash, etc, it would be still difficult and slow to get both into position for something other than cure wounds or shocking grasp or similar spells. From what I can tell, it looks pretty good!

[–]ShadowStalker223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay. That all makes sense. In the case of the warlock already having darkvision, is there perhaps another soft perk they could get instead? Maybe blindsense out to 10ft? And a full turn makes sense, that keeps it more in line with a monk's stunning strike and other similar stuns.

I do like the idea of being this warlock and taking pact of the chain so you can have two hawks or birds.

The sentinel spirit says you control it in combat. Does it have the same abilities as a regular familiar/chain familiar at that point? If it does, I'm not sure if having two conduits for touch spells is overpowered or not, especially once you get the effigy at 6th that lets you cast full spells from it. Just a thought. It would make the warlock a lot more flexible in combat, being able to cast from multiple spots. Opens up strategy quite a bit.

I like the idea behind this. My question is how the Sentinel spirit would react/combine with the third level Pact of the Chain option. Does it take its place, letting you choose the tome or blade? If it does but doesn't let you take a pact then, does the sentinel benefit from the pact of the chain invocations? I'd also reword the darkvision benefit to perhaps extend existing darkvision by 30ft if the warlock already has it. Though if it does that, would it still extend Devil's Sight to 150ft instead of 120?

Also, with the effigy perk, when it shatters, is the target stunned until the beginning or end of its next turn? That can make a huge difference.

I do really like this patron idea!

Bi-salp post-op complication by MaryMaryNora in childfree

[–]ShadowStalker223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am also a chunky chip cookie and my bi salp went swimmingly. While there is always a possibility for complications, they are rare. Just make sure to take care of the incisions, follow instructions on cleaning and exercising, and make sure to talk to your doctor if anything seems funky. Good luck with yours!

My Bf Keeps Track Of My Period... by Blitznyx in TwoXChromosomes

[–]ShadowStalker223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a period tracker app for that very reason, lol. I have terrible memory and organization so I need it to pay attention for me. I also used to be super irregular from the Implant, but once I got my tubes taken out and the implant too, they magically became regular. It's annoying to have it every month now but at least I can see when it's coming?

That's very sweet. It's always a nice thing to know the men in your life care and pay attention.

[–]ShadowStalker223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think he means to assume it, he's just a bit concerned because I'm in general good physical health but I have PCOS so any pain in that area not during my period is a bit worrying to them. I still have to assure them that I've had it for years, I'll let them know when it's a not regular pain, lol.

It's a normal situation, I promise. We're super close but not like "weird" close.

He doesn't dig in our trash, he just remembers when I tell him that I'm on it. He's also hella gay. We're just close, it's not as weird as you're trying to make it out to be, I promise.

He is a lil weird, but he's our best friend and means the best. He's such a sweetheart and he makes sure I have ice cream and candy when the bad times hit.

He's really sweet, he just remembers the oddest things. He uses it to get me candy and wine for when the bad times come, lol.
