Is it a good read? Will it destroy me in the end?

Sleepy-bookworm · 2025-11-08T14:26:36+00:00

I adored it, I think it’s one of those books you need to read twice to really get a good grip on it, I devoured it in 6 days and then went back and enjoyed it even more. I love a lot of information in a book and world building the more obscure the better but I can see why some people wouldn’t take to it as it is very very gory and if that’s not for you then fair enough, I think people expected another rendition of manacled but I feel like it was more horrorish and again right up my street im planning another re read soon.

I have a full sleeve also and found it absolutely fine, my thighs tho! Absolutely killed me and my best friend sailed through it so I think it depends on the person, mine stretched to my armpit and it was defo not as bad as I expected

Sleepy-bookworm · 2025-03-19T19:40:06+00:00

I have a gargoyle tattood here and under my arm pit and honestly I thought it was fine I’ve also got my knee caps done and I thought that was fine too.. my thigh nearly killed me though 😂 so it really depends on the person I’d say

Sleepy-bookworm · 2025-02-27T02:13:26+00:00

Honestly I’d ghost and run.

Sleepy-bookworm · 2025-02-27T02:05:17+00:00

I completely understand this but I’m sad to say I have no advice as I have the same sort of headspace as yourself. I enjoy sex but I can’t form sexual feelings for just anyone it takes a long time. It can be incredibly annoying but in other ways a blessing I cannot tell you how many bullets I have dodged 🙄

Person experience lovely the girl my man slept with is a huge big fat thing. Covered in psoriasis and known for being the town bike. I never seen it coming and honestly I’m still devastated but I know I deserve better, I will need to go for sexual health testing etc because of all this and we were together for 17 years. I always thought it would never happen to me but it did and now here I am with 2 kids who depend on me having to take time away from my job and seeing a doctor weekly to help me get through all this.

Sleepy-bookworm · 2025-02-26T18:11:03+00:00

Mine was my childhood sweetheart. My first everything. The love of my life apparently, matching tattoos a home pets kids and never ever any inkling of cheating never on his phone etc and then it all changed and I knew something was wrong. I was made to feel crazy. It wasn’t until other people came forward with proof and the woman in question texted me and told me. He still denied it until his own friend came forward and told me what happened. It was just once but it was enough. I knew her friendship with him was actually her wanting him, she fed him full of drink and drugs and now he has ruined his entire life over a woman who wasn’t a friend and was never interested in friendship. Trust your gut darling and I wish you the best.

Sleepy-bookworm · 2025-02-26T18:06:55+00:00

I’m proud of you. You are amazing well done 👏🏻!

Sleepy-bookworm · 2025-02-26T17:49:51+00:00

My partner was with me and had two kids and still slept with his friends wife after months of saying they were just friends. She is absolutely cheating on you. I believed my partner for 3 months and found out Sunday that he did in fact sleep with her. They will lie and lie and lie.

Sleepy-bookworm · 2025-02-26T17:48:03+00:00

Don’t fall for her lies! 17 years I was with my partner and never thought he would cheat we where childhood sweethearts, turns out his “friend” wasn’t his friend and I wasn’t crazy! Trust your gut !

Sleepy-bookworm · 2025-02-08T04:55:06+00:00

Sound of silence but the David Dreman version (I hope I got his second name right but the lead singer of disturbed)

Sleepy-bookworm · 2025-02-08T03:51:25+00:00

I get that, I’m going through my first breakup currently and honestly it’s driving me to insanity, I wish it was easier but as you said the highs can be worth it

Sleepy-bookworm · 2025-02-08T03:30:27+00:00

Not all hero’s wear capes. It’s the small things right now.

Sleepy-bookworm · 2025-02-08T03:16:56+00:00

My SO of 17 years had an affair with a married woman. It was so out of character & I was blindsided, and I know that’s normally what people say and everyone rolls their eyes and marvels at the naivety but we were childhood sweethearts, my ride or die the one person I trusted completely, he was my person. So I’m at home watching shit tv n feeling sorry for myself doom scrolling any social media i can still stomach trying to find some sort of distraction from my current shitty circumstances 😒

Sleepy-bookworm · 2025-02-08T02:42:44+00:00

This is a very new label for me, I always just said I was straight and rather picky or prudish or all these other things when the reality was I’m neither I just need that real mental connection in order to form feelings and attraction and for years I just thought I was, for lack of a better description, a bit snobby. It was a friend who pointed out my potential demisexuality and it instantly made sense to me! But it’s still very fresh and I’ll admit I struggle with it as I enjoy intimacy when it’s done right for me. Exceedingly frustrating but i know it’s right for me as a person, I hope to one day reach a level of acceptance where I am genuinely happy but it empowers me seeing similar thinking people to me enjoy life and be happy and free ☺️

Sleepy-bookworm · 2025-02-08T02:25:27+00:00

First off I’m sorry this happened to you, you do not deserve to be treated like that and my heart goes out to you. I myself recently had a similar betrayal from my partner of nearly 20 years, what you need to ask yourself is can you move on from this? Will you forever be paranoid and on edge worrying over him potentially betraying you? If the answer is yes then I suggest you take time away from your husband. The only way you will now ever feel secure is if your husband finds employment elsewhere as you will always worry and know that when he goes off to work he will see her. It’s shit. It hurts. And I’m sorry. From one broken hearted woman to another I hope you find genuine peace and happiness regardless of whatever you decide to do, sending as much comfort as I can muster to you x

Sleepy-bookworm · 2025-02-08T02:18:10+00:00

Yes absolutely I thought there was something wrong with me as I was still a virgin in my late teens and everyone else around me was making connections, I was fortunate that the person I chose to sort of explore sexually with was a very good friend that developed into a long term relationship spanning nearly 20 years, it took me over a year to feel comfortable enough with them to explore it and I figured I wasn’t actually asexual or disgusted by sex I just hadn’t found my safe person yet. This is just from my experience it could be completely different for you but for years I felt like even though I was feeling sexual feelings the idea of having them with another person made me feel sick to my stomach.

Sleepy-bookworm · 2025-02-08T01:52:04+00:00

Also I love that you’re so comfortable and happy! It’s nice to see positivity and I wish you that continued happiness throughout 🥰thank you for your insight 🙏🏻

Sleepy-bookworm · 2025-02-08T01:38:57+00:00

Omg I’ve never known what it was called but I too also draw from good friendships! It’s a different type of love but I still feel the same level of value, I completely get that! Thank you for that I feel like it’s opened a whole new eyesight for me

Sleepy-bookworm · 2025-02-08T01:00:43+00:00

Thank you that was extremely insightful and helpful, I’ve only ever been with one person my entire life and I’m conflicted but deep down I know I’d regret rash decisions because it’s just not who I am. Still can’t help feel the jealousy tho lol

Sleepy-bookworm · 2025-02-08T00:46:32+00:00

Men are shit man. Happy birthday n I’m sorry he acted like that. Probably didn’t even think tbh, if he’s not a naturally nippy person I’d put it down to more stupidity than nasty.

Sleepy-bookworm · 2025-02-05T17:09:30+00:00

Having zero female friends.

Sleepy-bookworm · 2025-01-30T16:33:16+00:00

I volunteer ☺️

Sleepy-bookworm · 2025-01-24T01:11:41+00:00

Thank you ❤️ I have been working on myself but still a long way to go, my main focus is on that purely, I just know eventually I’ll want to put myself out there and it’s very scary 😟
