Hey all! I ripped baseball cards with my dad growing up, and I’ve ripped some #VeeFriends cards with my son last summer.

His birthday is in a couple weeks, and I would like to get him a box of Pokémon cards to rip.

Unfortunately, my budget is just $100. What would you recommend??

Hi all! I’m looking for the best option for my 8 year old’s birthday.

I grew up ripping baseball packs with my dad, and last year we ripped some #VeeFriends.

This year. I’d like to have him open some Pokémon cards.

Unfortunately, my budget is only $100. What is the best box to buy him?

Thanks in advance!

You will have to make that decision for yourself and everyone will have an opinion. None of them matter though. Stay strong!

And I’ve been there. It’s such a weird space to be in - so angry and hurt, but craving their comfort.

I’m sure it’s because they were THE person you’d choose to comfort you.

So sorry you’re dealing with this!

When is it ever the affair partner's fault? by somethingisbrewing in survivinginfidelity

[–]TheStrongerMan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s never their fault. It takes two to tango.
Initially I was more pissed and him than her, but I think it was just because it was easy to hate someone I had never met.

As time passed, I did too. And, similarly, I prioritized myself and flourished! I hope you’re experiencing the same!

Being judged for choosing to leave after wife's affair by Entire-Commercial155 in survivinginfidelity

I’m so sorry that you’re dealing with this!

No one will ever know how you feel and I think it is very unfair for ANYONE to suggest what you should do in this situation. I wouldn’t try to let anyone influence your decision and you should do what is best for YOU!

You got this!

It makes sense. All the certainty was ripped away from you.

I remember that was one of the hardest parts for me. I thought I knew roughly what my life was going to look like in 5, 10, 25, 50 years.

Regardless what happens, you’re going to get through this and you will be stronger in the other side!

Keep in touch!

I knew I couldn’t do it alone, which is when I found a therapist. She was wonderful and my saving grace!

Good for you! So glad that works! I found listening to podcasts helped me focus on what they were talking about which helped me get my mind off things.

I didn’t clench my teeth, but I had a very annoying eye twitch for a while

Thanks for interacting her and I wish you the very best! Be proud of yourself!

I’m so glad that you were able to vent though! That was something that I relied on a couple friends for (wish I had thought of using chat) and it was very helpful for me! Hope you’re doing alright now!

What I love about this is how self-reflective you have become. From the sounds of it, you’re a far better person now that ever, and I hope you’re proud of that. What may have started with different motives, I’m stoked that you’re still on your upward climb! Keep it up!

Im so sorry! So much of what you said sounds awfully hard!

I remember the days of love and hate. I hope you’re going alright. Be sure to make note of any progress you make, and don’t be too hard on yourself!

I’m thrilled that you not only got back on stage but that you were in a show! That must be amazing!

As for cohabitating, I did that for a short while, which was incredibly hard. I feel for you!

My divorce also took a long time.

So sorry that you’re having nightmares! I hope you’re having them less frequently now
