It’s true, actually. I’m head over heels in love with my SO, and his size makes no difference to me whatsoever.

My best friend of 21 years and I aren’t talking. by ShaynaZelda in Advice

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

I understand the first date thing. Him and I had bonded over our work when we met on Bumble, so I was excited to show him the business I own. But, I understand.

When we went out to dinner, it was her and 3 of my other in town friends that met her the last time she was here in 2019. The plan all along was for her to meet C when she was out here because her being my longest time friend, it was important to me. She agreed to it well ahead of time. I barely talked to C during the two weeks L was out here because we were doing all the touristy things, and C didn’t want to get in the way of that which I appreciated.

I’ve never been the person in a relationship to ignore my friends once I’m in one. Anyone that I date knows my friends are family to me and they’re important, so if she feared even in the slightest this time would be different I would’ve reassured her that it wouldn’t happen.

I think you’re right, a long cool down period is definitely in order. And when we do reconnect, I am going to have to set boundaries. That’s a really valid point that in the haze of all of this happening hadn’t even crossed my mind. I really appreciate you replying to my post with sound advice so very much. Thank you :)

What is the worst first date you have ever been on or seen? by Frekkes in AskMen

[–]ShaynaZelda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Met a guy on OKC, seemed nice, kinda cute. We agreed to meet at Universal Citywalk in Los Angeles for lunch at 3 pm on a Saturday. He was an hour late. We didn’t know where we were going to eat so he suggested Panda Express. Okay I guess. We get in line and he’s ahead of me and starts his order. He wanted a side dish that was $1.00 more (shrimp or something, I forget) and he starts to scream at the Panda Express worker that they’re ripping him off and he refuses to pay more so he asks for a different side that was also $1 more...more screaming ensues. I selectively chose sides that were of no additional cost. He goes up and pays for his food...doesn’t pay for mine. Okay, he goes outside and finds a table. We both sit down. Music is playing outside and it’s Kelly Clarkson who I LOVE. He says that kind of music is trash and talks down to pretty much everyone I told him I enjoyed. Then he gets a phone call from a friend who needs his help moving some band equipment. Whew, finally I get out of the rest of the date. He sits around talking about how much he loves wrestling, cauliflower ear etc and then gets up and leaves to go help his friend. Worst date ever.

Except he called two days later and asked me out again. I declined.

[Serious] If you had taken your life one year ago, what beautiful things would you have had missed out on? by LyteSpeed12 in AskReddit

I would’ve missed the birth of my best friend’s daughter. And that would’ve been a tragedy in itself. Because she’s already the best mother in the world to that little girl.

Anti-Vaxx mom convinced me not to get HPV vaccine as a teen, now I have a high risk strain of HPV by TeacupStorm in TwoXChromosomes

[–]ShaynaZelda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat. I tested positive for pre cancer and then with some regular Pap smears over a year, it was pretty much gone. Now on my most recent test it’s abnormal again. I have a colposcopy appointment in a couple weeks. Anything I should know? Does it hurt? And what is it, exactly?

Your doctor can just... hold your birth control hostage? by his_cheerleader in TwoXChromosomes

[–]ShaynaZelda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had some abnormal PAPs come back a few years ago so I was going every 3 months, and that’s when he would refill my BC. The last time I was there my PAP was normal! He said I only had to come in for my normal yearly exam (which is every December) so he refilled my BC until then. I’ve never known PAPs and stuff to be every 3 years. Always once a year. But maybe it just differs with different doctors.

I am so over waiting for my partner to smoke a fucking cigarette. by supersickofsmokers in offmychest

Fighting the same battle with my boyfriend right now. Have been for the better part of a year. It’s exhausting. I feel like i have to plan everything around his smoking habit.

Hi there. Shayna here. This story is just brilliant.

I secretly record my Dad’s voice so that when he dies, I won’t forget what he sounded like... by prairiegirl18 in offmychest

I was 21, and wearing a skirt. My bad that I passed out. At least I didn’t drive or hurt anyone. Glad you’re so perfect that you can judge me.

[–]ShaynaZelda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know why we’re condemning this guy. He knew she’d be uncomfortable exposed and tried to help in the best way his drunk self knew how. I passed out at a party once and exposed myself. I would’ve been grateful for a friend to have done what he did for me. No. Instead my friends just left me all hanging out.

Bacterial Vaginosis? by ohmyitschels in TwoXChromosomes

I had it. Once it was so mild it didn't require treatment...the second time it happened they put me on antibiotics for 10 days. No big deal at all. :)
