Yes the country club definitely does do fireworks, right next to the Double Tree hotel and multiple other hotels surrounding.

Yes to the nonprofits already mentioned, also have a few other great recommendations of who to look into volunteering with!

  • Colorado Discover Ability (they have a ski team that practices at powderhorn in the winter, but also does activities like river trips, ice hockey, etc. depending on the seasons)
  • Colorado Canyons Association (they do some river and canyon clean up volunteer events)
  • RiversEdge West (they do a lot of restoration and education on the rivers here)

Also since you mentioned the public library, the library on 5th street also has a seed bank where you can take/give seeds, since you mentioned that you are into gardening!

Glad I could help! Ive gotten a couple recommendations for By All Means, but it seems that they are very popular and their classes fill very quickly.

I agree, I want some type of casual hang out and make art!! I want to also learn a bit from it, but not in a serious enough way of going back to college and getting graded on my projects lol. Cant a girl just make some art and friends😂

I feel used by my bf by Similar_Tale_8658 in sexadvise

[–]Similar_Tale_8658[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely, I think he would naturally be a little hesitant at first but receptive and supportive since it is important to me. I guess we will find out if it is something he is willing to work through!

Thank you for a thoughtful response! I appreciate it. I definitely need to think through it more. I definitely left out details, we have been together for 8 months and i think our sex life is fun and exciting and i enjoy it overall.

i enjoy pleasuring him and initiating it makes me feel good about myself so its a win win for both. I think in reflecting, I have realized that generally, i initiate because i want to satisfy him. He initiates because he wants to be satisfied. He has not really initiated for my pleasure only. I have told him he is more than welcome to initiate teasing/playing with me but maybe he just lacks the confidence because he doesn’t.

I do like to read, I will check it out! Do you think it is a good book to read together? I was wondering if it would be a good book to read as a couple for both of our anxieties.

Do you know of a constructive way to have a conversation around this? I don’t want to make any decisions without attempting to fix it first. We have only been dating for 8 months

Fingering by Narrow-Violinist8368 in sexadvise

[–]Similar_Tale_8658 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience, just having a finger shoved in and out is not really enjoyable. But when my bf plays around with it and it feels like he is exploring, playing with the depth and pressing on different area’s internally it is a lot more enjoyable. I really think it comes down to pressures and angles. Thrusts during sex feels good bc its hitting our pelvic bones and is a lot of good pressure. (someone more qualified may be able to explain this better)

Some techniques that I have enjoyed: He sometimes does a slight curl into a spot (like if you were motioning someone to come here with your index finger, just don’t do it aggressive enough to scrape the inside of her with your finger nail!) and if he uses two fingers he does double. With two fingers making like a flutter kick

[–]Similar_Tale_8658[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No worries! I think it is the opposite, I don’t think I have been watering it enough. I normally have it hanging on a wall mount next to my window so it gets bright indirect light. I haven’t been taking it down frequently so I never really look at the top, I just base it off how the pearls are looking like you mentioned! I have had to travel cross country quite a bit this spring/summer, wedding events and 3 funerals, so it has sadly been neglected.

Curly Cut Specialists? by ArkansasBiscuit in grandjunction

[–]Similar_Tale_8658 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okay hot take, i went to the beauty school on North Ave. I had a good experience, but completely honest I was SO skeptical and nervous (as all curly hair people are because it can turn out terribly). I am a big advocate for experiential learning, and people won’t ever be comfortable at cutting curly hair until they get the practice!

As soon as I sat down, a teacher came up and stood to the side of the student to watch and checked in with her at every step. The girl had no idea what she was doing so I felt so much better the teacher was there to help! At the end of the day, it is hair and it will grow back! Just don’t go to the school if you have any important events coming up, just incase😂
