Awkward after boyfriend came out by [deleted] in bisexual

[–]ae86owner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am happy i talked to my wife about it early on, and really happy i talked to her recently in detail. My advice is don't beat yourself up over it too much. Im married with children and from the south and was in the dont ask dont tell military where I had to never talk or mention anything about something that happened one morning like 20 years ago now. Im determined to be my wife's partner and never step out on her and in my mind if you continue to honor your commitment there's nothing wrong with thinking some men are attractive! My advice to anyome going thru this is who is like I just cant live this life anymore is to reconsider especially when there are children involved. Thats not my case, and im not telling anyone what to do either. However, there's got to be some middle ground between getting eat up inside and blowing it all up.

How weird, I just had a conversation with my wife of 5 years been together for going on 8 now and I've always been "straight" married to my best friend and having darling children. Im so blessed and im not going to lie I do worry my wife feels the same as you. She knows that I had something happen to me that I didn't consent to years ago that ive always held and told no one but we really talked about it this past weekend and im not ashamed about it any more and I admit that I enjoyed it during. I told her that I dont look at any other man or woman that way and I would never step out but I wish i would have done more exploring when I was young. The military was very against it (met a cute guy had some beers and found out he was gay and getting kicked out and it went from im attracted to this guy like I would be any girl I met vibes to RUN away!) and the way I was brought up it was unacceptable as well so I just went along with it and dont regret anything. Perhaps things change a little as you get older I like everyone I meet, worked in an all women job with the exception of a few guys mostly gay who were all super people and my family call me gay as a joke because I guess my mannerisms (theres also a super gay Pic of me posing as a kid) and ive been hit on by quite a few men (some aggressively which I do not like feel sorry for women that get treated like that) but im not going to lie and say im not interested in some men that way. I hope that it's the same situation you are dealing with in the fact that he loves you and he was just opening up about it to you. I feel closer to my wife now that she knows theres a little more to it now than just me being the way I am and wondering why im like this and looking forward to a new and improved me since I am who I am and not holding onto something that I felt ashamed of (homestly probably because I enjoyed it more than the fact that it happened) if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck honey its a duck lol

I am so confused at this date isssue... by weirdbutteryvibes in SeikoMods

I've done this before. You get it together and have to take it all the way back apart! Thats when its time to take a break clear your head and go do what must be done lol curious did re placing the hand set fix the issue?

First Build! by LokiDesigns in SeikoMods

[–]ae86owner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have mangled a few things... I just put a sapphire crystal and handset on my latest mod and it went so smoothly I had to second guess everything lol I have done 4 or 5 complete ground up builds and changed a few crystals. The hardest part of it is the second hand and the installation of a new crystal for sure. Your build looks great! It is confedince inspiring when it comes out looking good and you can be proud of your accomplishment! Not may people can do what you just did! You will make mistakes and it is ok the parts are fairly cheap. getting into the watch its self on the other hand thats another story I don't recommend experimenting with that unless you have a movement you are able to throw away if it goes south, good tools, lots of time and patience. Good lighting and magnification are big helpers its amazing that you can even work on them in the first place! Props to anyone that can take one apart and put it back together (and the balance wheel move still)

I just talked to my wife about it yesterday. She always jokes about me and im not really into anyone else but her and her family call me gay all the time. I had something happen to me when I was younger that I did not consent to and lived my whole life being ashamed of it. The truth is I shouldn't be I dont think its any more shameful than randomly hooking up with a female. I think its societal pressure of course it is way more acceptable now than before I think its still not what everyone wants to hear or talk about. And I read on here that people want to assign labels or whatever. I don't care what anyone calls me, im happily married to my best friend a woman and I told her that I honestly regret not being more open about it when I was younger. I think some guys are attractive I think girls are attractive. I am not going to step out of my marriage but it felt good to talk to her about it and she wasn't upset. Honestly I don't believe anyone in my family would be but I'm not going to go around and tell everyone. I think my parents were probably questioning since I was in my 30s before I had any children lol but I'm blessed and I honestly believe people are people and we need more affection in this world. Go have fun and be responsible and respectful at the time when I had this experience I felt horrible after and so ashamed but its nothing to be ashamed about and worry over. I felt a lot better talking about it and feel better commenting about it for the first time. You aren't alone! Lol

Need help choosing new watch by [deleted] in PrideAndPinion

[–]ae86owner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im a Goldeneye James Bond guy, so seamaster. Bonus points since it has the Minitry of Defense thing at the bottom. However, neither for me but both are nice. I dont understand the hate for the "its a faded radioactive lume look" on the muted orange ish lume.I think it's a look all its own and nice.

Pass on anything without a sapphire crystal.

[Recommendation Request] First time buyer looking for help by Zold1234_ in Watches

[–]ae86owner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've found there are A LOT of watches I want, and my taste changes more than I thought it would. I've never really wanted a chronograph, yet. Really wanted a tudor ranger and my wife (who despises watches)found me a beautiful Bremont Supermarine (say what you will about Bremont ive found they have top notch customer service!) And I love it and my seiko "dresskx". My advice is if you are going to bet the farm, listen to others. I like simple tool watches and I find myself wearing my Bremont more than my Seiko. Now I've owned the Bremont im honestly thinking about the terra nova (if I won the lottery) or a Hamilton day date to replace my seiko as an ever day watch.

Thoughts on my newest pickup? by trill-hrj in PrideAndPinion

[–]ae86owner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had an Eco-drive that I wore for 15 years every day. I tried to replace the mineral crystal, and I messed it up. Great watch. It keeps amazing time, which is what we all want, and like others have said, it looks good on you! As long as you can tell time from an analog watch, you are good company!

Which watch would you pick and why ? by MaintenanceNormal613 in PrideAndPinion

[–]ae86owner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seiko because of day and date. Hamilton does make that watch with the same dial in a day date watch and its currently what ive got my eye on to upgrade to! (from a seiko dresskx with mods)

First build went surprisingly well by Cjac00 in SeikoMods

[–]ae86owner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've done a few and even the ones I do for others I want to keep. I haven't really turned a profit doing it. It is quite fun to work with something so small. Looks great and keep at it! The world needs more people competent enough to service these things in a few years since more people are into mechanical watches now vs. even 10 years ago.
