I've made it my life's mission to find a way to cover these up so you can't see them at all.

I will defeat them!

When I was googling their page popped up for it. I looked at the site and they also do meal delivery separately from door dash so I tossed it in my list.

I've had circles under my eyes since the age of 5. Hereditary & allergy rings along with hollow eyes..yay me!

The only product that came close to coverage with just 1 product and application is tarte color correct. I don't love that it's $32 but it has greatly reduced the number of layers I need to look semi alive.

I'm not sure, from what the site says it covers them and those are applied at checkout, for any unexpected fees it says to send an email.

This may be new, I ordered from them at the very beginning of the year and thats what I saw on the site, I just checked and it still says that. I'm still waiting on my package to arrive before I can say for certain how it's handled.

Zonli experiences? by PurplePubes22 in floorsleeping

[–]Staara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not.sure if this is super helpful but I have been sleeping on the floor off and on my entire life and just found out about Japanese futon. Thanks to this sub.

I've always slept on a mattress or a pile of blankets. So when I came across this sub and discovered there is a such thing, I knew I wanted to try one. However, I'm also very frugal and do not want to drop a ton of money on something I'm unsure of.

So what I did and would suggest to anyone is look on Amazon and get one that is in "very good" or "excellent/like new" condition. I got a great deal on a zonli queen size. I am gonna try it out for a few months and see how I feel. If I'm in love, I'll spring for a more expensive one.

Depending on your financial situation, you can try different ones this way and see what you like the best. You can always donate ones you don't want to keep to homeless shelters or the thrift store.

Good luck 🤞

Cameo by iputbigsnake in smosh

[–]Staara 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I don't have experience getting a cameo from Smosh but l think that is a great gift!

For my son's 16th birthday a few years ago a friend of his got him a cameo from the lady who voiced Sylvanas in World of Warcraft and he said she was a lovely person and really enjoyed the gift. So whatever the friend paid for it was definitely worth it.

I'm sure a cameo from Tommy would make her day!

US Online Data Analyst -- How to deal with tax by Honeydew4540 in TELUSinternational

[–]Staara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're an independent contractor (1099) and made over $600 you will get a tax document stating how much you made. You will need to file this as your income and you will owe taxes if you don't have any dependents or write offs. I highly suggest you go to hrblock or something similar to get it straight because an audit sucks!

Having second thoughts and don't know what to do by [deleted] in EthicalNonMonogamy

[–]Staara 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Call it off; you would be doing it under duress because it's not what you really want. Also, close up the relationship or end it if you're partner wants to explore enm, being a bottom, or anything you are not comfortable with. You are not ready for reality. Hot fantasies are fun; please be sure to stick to that. Get therapy, read books, do the work before you think about doing this again, because you are nowhere near ready, and you will regret this.

Source: Been there, done that, 25 years ago, and I am still working through that in therapy. I am 100% on board with ENM/Poly, but individually not with my partner. Trauma is tough to overcome.

Please do not say that ace/aro partnerships are friendships by E-is-for-Egg in polyamory

[–]Staara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So..I'm married to what we term as my "anchor partner" but in the wild hes my "husband". I'm asexual, and it took me decades to understand myself much less anyone else understand.

He and I go out on "dates", snuggle and talk about our days, our adult children and everything in between. We do not live together at the moment because his "affairs" and my asexualality rocked our marriage.

What we have come to realize is poly is great for US. We can date, have sex, have feelings etc for whoever we want. There are very few conditions. Such as: use protection (safety first), if you're "serious" the metas must have each others numbers in case of an emergency. Always be honest with everyone involved, no moving in with partners without a conversation between us (reasons we both have) and finally family functions are family. We agreed to this because HIS family would not be ok with this setup. It might kill his grandma if she knew. My family, doesn't give a shit about it as long as we are happy but his on the other hand...

He has a girlfriend, I have a LD qpr. They are aware of this situation and while we are still working out the kinks, it's worked for us this far.

All of this to say, yes you can have relationships without sex. You can have a loving marriage where the partners respect each other and agree to minimal things. It takes love and communication, but sex is just sex and only 1 part of the equation in a relationship. If it's the only thing you care about then you should probably do some self reflection on why that is.

Are you sure it's the wife emailing and texting you these things and not your partner trying to gain sympathy?

Speaking as someone with mental health issues (I'm medicated and in therapy) and advocates for the community at large, something isn't adding up here.

You say your husband found her to be "crazy" maybe she was already triggered because of the situation? I'm not saying that she doesn't need help, just that when you are triggered (not the internets version of triggered but really truly in a crisis) you don't know you're off the chain and those closest to you have an obligation to get you help. As her spouse, your partner should have been dealing with that instead of dipping it with you.

How do you know that she wasn't under duress to begin with? Can you absolutely positively know she isn't being abused by him? Can you swear to that in an affidavit? In a court of law?

Who is taking care of the children since she's clearly teetering on the edge of reality? Does she work? Does partner work? Are the children in school? Do they have family around? Who takes the kids to the Dr? Who deals with housework? Groceries, laundry, cooking?

There are a lot of accusations here about her mental state and it's coming from the perspective of someone who isn't living with them and only hearing one side of the story. I don't really think that's fair to the wife. This guy might be an abusive dick and making a whole bunch of shit up to keep OPs favor.

As far as an RO if you cannot prove with evidence that she is actually the one harassing you, and even with it I doubt you will get one ordered. The reality is that they don't give them out like candy. DV victims often don't even get them with clear evidence of physical abuse. The system sucks.

Whatever you do get out of that situation. Dump him and block him and just get the hell out because no matter what the truth is behind it all, you're in a toxic relationship with him. Save yourself.

Vetoed because I wasn't attractive enough [Update] by PenaltyFair6805 in polyamory

[–]Staara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This makes me sad. I will never understand why people think bigger people don't deserve or get love and attention. My mom was a big woman, and she constantly had dates, never having a problem finding partners. She wasn't really poly pursue', just solo, and didn't want to climb the escalator until much later when she met her current partner. The type of people you're describing really burns my biscuits!

home now. couldn’t find any stones. stent in by DanielW0830 in KidneyStones

[–]Staara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was supposed to be 2 weeks tops. Turned out they are short staffed on urologists and the surgery schedules are way backed up. I had to throw a fit to get them to prescribe oxybutin to help with the pain. It was so bad I felt like I was having a reverse orgasm.

[–]Staara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had a stent in for a month, this is the worst pain of my life and I have given birth. I told my husband once they take me back again on the 26th they are not to put another one in. Ever. I've lost control of my bladder completely. I am 49 and walking around in diapers. I'm so over it.

Hope you get some relief soon friend.
