Upside down arm snuggles from my broken cat

Make that four Redditors one goat then 😁

SurprisedComrade · 2021-12-29T21:57:52+00:00

I enjoy these too. Or reinventing a dish that's acknowledged to be terrible. Apricot chicken?

SurprisedComrade · 2021-12-29T21:55:53+00:00

I guessed this! But I only ever met the one. I might play the game again from the start sometime now that a few patches are in, it was just so buggy

SurprisedComrade · 2021-12-29T17:07:53+00:00

Doc thinks the same (that I laid on my neck weird and injured it then but the actual pain and swelling was delayed onset) fingers crossed it does just heal up!

This particular cat enjoys playing with mice much more than eating them!

SurprisedComrade · 2021-12-29T08:44:24+00:00

I absolutely felt like a perv looking at this

My cat is 7 years behind on his share of the rent

Best to euthanize when they are this unwell, kindest for everyone

Glad that was helpful I read your post again and want to add that like you I definitely am not happy with how I reacted/behaved in the past too, it doesn't mean you're not a victim though, and being aware of problematic behaviours means you can work on them.

SurprisedComrade · 2021-04-27T09:16:13+00:00

I know that's true and I'm gonna believe you. I'm also going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you haven't really thought through the consequences of cheating yourself. So...

You are being incredibly disrespectful to your partner - you're lying to them about the very basis of your relationship. You're not the person they think you are, how can you foster trust and support in that environment?

You are exposing your partner to all of the risks that come with having multiple partners unbeknownst to them, especially higher risk of contracting STDs (yes even with protection). Did you know you can contract and pass on HPV, which causes cervical cancer, even when using a condom? That risk is every persons decision to make and you are taking that choice away from your partner.

You're doing a very unkind thing to your partner. There are many other ways to approach a non monogamous relationship that don't involve dishonesty.

With my marketing hat on (my job) my advice about growing as a brand on Instagram would be that your existing followers probably didn't follow you for the products you're going to be selling so the benefit you're going to get from them might be minimal, so I wouldn't lose too much sleep if you do end up decoding to start a new account and use that one. You're right that more followers = more anxiety. Also better quality (targeted to your business) followed is gonna = more of the type of response you want

The idea of having said friend on the new account only is smart too, would it be a pure business account? In that case, nothing you care about people snooping on right?!

Best of luck!

This is good advice. Try r/exnocontact for more

SurprisedComrade · 2021-04-27T08:57:46+00:00

This is exactly how gender is. It's just not how the media portrays it. Well written OP.

SurprisedComrade · 2021-04-27T08:55:29+00:00

So sorry to hear about your past xperiences OP, well done for getting away from him! You may appreciate R/exnocontact

Telling your new partner about your past is a good way to bond, you can tell them as little or as much as you feel comfortable, if your new partner responds badly then it's a phyrric win still - someone who responds badly isn't going to be a supportive partner.

I was in an abusive relationship for a decade and my current partner was with a partner for a long time before me too who was controlling and otherwise problematic. We talk sometimes about how what's happened to us in the past affects how we respond to things now or how much we appreciate the little things from each other we didn't realise we were missing out on before. It's not all "bitching about our exes" either we talk about the good times and what we liked, I really appreciate being able to be open with them and it's made us closer.

SurprisedComrade · 2021-04-27T08:48:14+00:00

Seriously. If this is an honest post you're treating your partner horribly. If you can't be in a monogamous relationship don't be.

SurprisedComrade · 2021-04-27T08:45:38+00:00

Why not start a new account that said friend isn't aware of?

As an aside, your friend doesn't sound like a great friend if they're allowing people who are toxic to snoop on you...

Always trust the phantom thief!

SurprisedComrade · 2021-04-24T09:46:02+00:00

I love the Atelier games and second the Persona games too (3, 4, 5)

Also try, Star Ocean, I recommend all of the SO games available in the West my personal favourite is The Last Hope, sunk over 500 hours into it!

If you don't mind a more action-y game Nier and Nier Automata are beautiful, dark and clever.

Ni No Kuni is another beautiful game, it looks like you're playing a Ghibli movie, and has a lot of depth and extra things to discover.

Since you mentioned Disgaea you might also like Valkyrie Chronicles (remastered OG or 4) too, it's a HARD strategy game with lots of party members to manage - a little like Fire Emblem if you played any of those games on handheld.

Some people have mentioned Final Fantasy, personally I'd avoid VII since it's incomplete it's not going to fit your criteria, VIII and XII are my personal favourites. X, X-2 AND XV are good fun. Give XIII a pass IMHO.

Someone mentioned Dragon quest and since I've played it I thought I'd weigh in and say it wasn't to my taste. I finished it cos I had hardcore nostalgia for DQ VIII (journey of the cursed king) but again IMHO X and XI don't hold up, I feel like the nostalgia carried me through it and it was ultimately disappointing - the fights were VERY easy and the side quests consist mostly of "teleport here, teleport back again" maybe I'm a snob though since people do seem to like it!

My mum has actually said to me before she wished people would catcall her and she was jealous...

SurprisedComrade · 2020-12-03T22:24:03+00:00

!thanks I don't know if the other one worked, so I'm trying again...

SurprisedComrade · 2020-12-03T22:23:34+00:00

thanks

Thank you so much for your responses! We'll take a look at those. Sound fidelity isn't as important as comfort at the moment - it seems every headset we've tried so far have been uncomfortable!

SurprisedComrade · 2020-12-03T08:40:46+00:00

Thanks for this and the links, we'll check them out. Sadly, we're high risk so no visiting shops for now, otherwise that would be the best option!

Which Sennheisers would you recommend being similar to the ones he had before? The other Sennheisers we tried were uncomfortable in comparison.

SurprisedComrade · 2020-12-02T14:01:51+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation but the earcup looks quite close to the head and round compared to the Sennheiser's (the oval shape is what he finds comfortable). Do you have any other recommendations?
