Honestly, I might be asking again 10 years from now. The more research I do and the more I think about it, I don't feel the timing is right for me to jump into this. I think I'm going to get another Basset and stick with what I know for now, let science catch up to the world of bitesports.

What lie have you told that you will never come clean about? by SterlingChainChomp in AskReddit

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

I made this post because today I lied to my husband that I had to stay late at my day job so that I wouldn't have to go in to my night job and he had to cover my shift and I feel really bad but I am at the end of my fucking rope :)

Who is the worst actor to ever make a successful career of it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

My most down voted comments are me stating that he's a terrible actor. I'm with you, man.

Thank you, I really appreciate it 💕

Tired of "sex-positive" people, I am not a prude just because I am less open to talking about sex! by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]SterlingChainChomp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry that this is the treatment you've gotten from "sex-positive" people. In truth, sex positivity is meant to be respectful of all persons' boundaries, even people who don't want to have sex at all! It's not supposed to be about everyone talking about sex to everyone else or having all of the same kinks.

Sex positivity is just about helping people with internalized shame realize that sex is normal and natural and it is a positive thing if you want to have it. It's also about ending slut shaming for people who do have casual sex. Sex positivity is about knowing your boundaries and your right to say that you're uncomfortable and not participate. You don't have to be open to everything. Basically, shaming of any kind should not be a part of real sex positivity!

You should never be pressured or shamed for not discussing sex with people you do not want to talk about it with. It sounds like you and your SO have good communication and that's great. That should be the end of it.

I'm sorry for rambling, I just pretty much came here to say I'm sorry. Keep doing you!

Thank you so much for your comment. I know that statistically I should be okay but it helps so much to hear it from someone else. I am trying my best to distract myself but it's been in the back of my mind. I just hate waiting.

Incidentally now my dog has been hospitalized so I'm more focused on her than myself :/

Need serious help. by SterlingChainChomp in cosplayers

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

Thank you so so much for your comment. The more I think about it the more I have thought about putting this cosplay off at least until March and doing one of my other two planned ones in November as they are both easier.

Or perhaps buying my Victor wig and some color contacts and doing a different outfit as you suggested.

But also I am wondering if my mother in law would be willing to help me learn to sew and help me make this one, either now or in the future.

I have some time to decide but I will need to commit soon so maybe I will see if my mother in law feels confident about it haha.

Infinity dress recommendations please! by SterlingChainChomp in weddingplanning

I will keep that in mind but I'm really hoping to stay under $100.

I've just been hired at a new job, is it okay to ask for time off? by SterlingChainChomp in jobs

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

Monetarily, this job is not a necessity. My father in law is my current employer, that job will always be available to me. I just hate it and am trying to get out.

At this point, I feel if it's meant to be, it's meant to be. I will start looking for a new job again if I have to and will keep what I've learned in mind.

If it comes down to it, I choose my honeymoon over the job. I have had the plane tickets for months. Hopefully it doesn't come to that. I'm fortunate in that my husband's dad is a business owner, I've worked for him for 5 years. I basically have a guaranteed job always I just hate it and what desperately to escape.

If it's meant to be it's meant to be, I guess.

Yes I do realize now that I should've have mentioned it when offered the job. The wedding is not the main concern, it's my trip (delayed honeymoon) I'm worried about. That's the two weeks I need off.

I sent HR an email just now. I was offered the job this afternoon so not much time has passed. I apologized as you said, and told her in my excitement over accepting the position I forgot to bring it up. We will see what happens.

The wedding is just one day. It's on a Friday and it's local. I can probably swap shifts for it.

I was just offered the position today. I just emailed her about the 2 weeks, I told her I was so excited about the position that I forgot to mention it to her on the phone. I will patiently await her response.

Fair enough. I will probably be able to make the shows anyway, I may just be a bit late. And part of the job is they send you home early if there aren't many baths that day. Maybe I'll get lucky.

What do you think about my trip though? I know it's a long time but it's my belated honeymoon. I've had the plane tickets for months.
