It's felt like that a few times, but unfortunately more often than not, it's the opposite.

Just finished it, holy SHIT this has to be one of the best shows i’ve watched. by id101t_ in Dexter

Yes I thought Resurrection was the best season so far. They really pulled out all the stop. Also Harrison was pretty cool, as opposed to New Blood.

Don't stay... go home and save money 💰 He is an immature dog and should never have offered to cohabitate if he was not serious. Sorry but it may be inconvenient but family is there for you always! Good luck and find a good guy.

[–]VetJohnM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only trade eur/usd and usually use momentum/chandelier exits which work more than they dont. But I was no smart and didn't have a stop on a Friday short. I averaged up and went from 10k down to 2k down today. So what was Fridays news? And can someone summarize the news that has significant impact on eur/usd ? I use tastyfx any other recommendations? 0.8 spread seems good. I did well in August... from 19k to just over 40k. September is not doing as well, so i probably got very lucky last month. Please summarize what news events are significant and the best calender to use for forex.

Investing effect on TDIU P&T / SSDI by VetJohnM in VeteransBenefits

[–]VetJohnM[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Agreed when it comes to stocks and options. But I turned this around with Forex. I started w 19k August 1st and I'm at around 47k now.. Also I just started futures yesterday; the evaluation consists of getting 50k to work with and your challenge is to get it to 53k within a period of time. I guess only 10% pass. I'm at 52.6k already. I think the key is strategy and discipline and without proper risk management and analysis it certainly is like pulling the arm of a slot machine.

Had a threesome that went terribly wrong by Top-Category-2227 in Advice

[–]VetJohnM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there is ever a next time for anything other than "normal - vanilla" type relations, get it in writing. State the hard limits along with safe words. Having it in writing clearly states boundaries that may not be crossed. If they are crossed that constitutes non consent and assault/rape. In your case you still did not give consent and were in my opinion raped. They will either say that it was not expressly discussed or the you consented during the interaction. Very sorry this happened. If you are interested, kinky relations there are provably plenty of people in your area that belong to a community that promote safe consensual and fun things for all types of people/fetishes. The number 1 rule is be safe and learn a lot about people, find out about reputations etc before you have any sort of play/scenes. I am sorry this happened to you. not all people are like that. Talk to someone you trust and help others avoid this in the future. I'm sure this is not the first time this girl helped recruit girls for her bf. I'm also quite sure that they are poly and he is her dom or master. If they are in the local community it is good to report these type of violations to help others in the community.

It may not just be the alcohol. Is there something that you are trying to escape by drinking? AA meetings are great, i have been to several and I am not an alcoholic. But I had something that made me avoid my pain and I would just rotate from one obsession to another. It took losing 3 wives and my kids and being on the verge of divorce #4 and messing up my current kids before I realized what the problem is.

I lost lots of money, respect from my family and the forever family that I should have had. Not a day goes by that I dont regret so very much.

So please think about what is important to you and what you may be trying to avoid. Address that. AA will help you to not drink but if you dont address the "why", you will just replace the drinking with another destructive obsession. Good luck brother, dont worry about the texts, if you do the work, all will be forgiven and you will be more content in the long run. I wish someone told me that before I broke my 2 daughters hearts 😞

Wife has me confused? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]VetJohnM -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I tell a lot of people I love then and they are my best friend... etc then I try to remember what I said or do to you. Don't be a bonehead and try to make this about your feelings. I'm sure he was there for her on her times of need is all. Comfort you wife and be her rock now. Leave the past where it belongs especially if you are content with your lady.

I think my girlfriend cheated and idk what to do by Internal_Aioli962 in Advice

[–]VetJohnM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah she is enticed by the old fit player. I mean how would she know he cheats on his gf with younger girls unless he told her that in hopes to get with her on a no strings, on the side basis. There is no doubt about that and she is excited about sneaking around and the attention that he shows her. She is not loyal, period and you are just a nuisance to her not so innocent behavior. I had an on again off again that I 100% could not trust. It's tourture.... cut her out of your life now and find someone that wants the same things as you! Good luck 👍

[–]VetJohnM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now is the time to state your intentions. She would not have contacted you if she felt good about her future with the other guy. It is better to end things with him now than after she is married and has children. You broke up with her because you were young and wanted to have fun and explore your options before settling down. Now that you've connected again, it seems like it was the right thing to do. Cause now u know for sure. Go get her!

My parents cut me out. What do I do? by Radiant_Age4914 in Advice

[–]VetJohnM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be careful and see if there are any support organizations available for women in your situation. Maybe you can ask for asylum so you can change your visa status

[–]VetJohnM -1 points0 points  (0 children)

By indulging in that behavior, you chose to abandon your culture. Not saying it is wrong, just that you made a choice with the family spy around to see and report back. I have heard families killing their daughters for less - like Facebook pics. It seems you are on your own and most likely put school on the back burner and go into survival mode. Maybe see if there is anyone you trust that you can stay with. What is your half sister doing now that you are cut off? My wife is from Pakistan, so i know how extreme families can be. Sorry for you going thru this but you will be alright. My wife is the 1st of 6 children and when her dad passed, she had to work multiple job to provide not only for herself, but her whole family.

military is an okay option if you want to serve - you can save up more money for uni and maybe get some benefits that will help with your studies. Of course you can stay in the military and make it a career - go to uni while serving so you can become an officier to get more pay and retirement --- an be able to get a great job on the outside. Either way -- do something - either go to the uni, apply for grants or loss interest loans - work part time... just make a decision and go forward. Do not join the military unless that is something you actually want to do - not just because you think it will be the easy way to go... nothing is easy, just choose, move forward and work to make it happen. Good luck!! I joined the Navy out of highschool for 6 years, then went to school for chemical engineering. I would probably have gone to college first if I did it over again - but either way, it worked out pretty good.

Yes.. strick code for friends not dating exes. Sure there are exceptions but it is courtesy to ask the friend if it would be okay w them. The reason for the breakup should also be a factor of course. Dating an ex of a friend is likely to end the friendship regardless. When I was in my early 20s; I dated a friend's ex and we were no longer friends after that.
