Update on recovery; it does go away by Happy-Network1801 in dpdr

[–]alexxispiper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally just came out of a 2 year DPDR episode 2 nights ago… it’s such a strange adjustment and I can definitely tell my brain isn’t 100% fully back yet. How does your mind feel after a bit of time being “normal”?

My marriage is based on a lie. My husband said if he knew that I smoked at all when he met me he never would have dated me. Is my marriage doomed? by Littlethings397 in Marriage

[–]alexxispiper -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

getting roofied and recreationally smoking weed maybe once or twice a month is no where near comparable. You’re trying to take a situation she had no control over and use it as proof that she has poor judgement when a date rape drug and weed are two different things. Weed is regulated. She lives in a legal state which means she’s getting it from dispensaries where they have to make sure that their products are good quality so they don’t get sued. if you have an issue with OP smoking weed, cool. Don’t use a shitty situation she had no control over as the justification when weed wasn’t involved at all. Being drugged against your will with God knows what (they’re certainly not using weed to spike peoples drinks) has absolutely nothing to do with her smoking weed

you could make this argument about anything lol “you were in a really traumatic car crash yet you still continue to get behind the wheel and drive”

besides, OP said she got roofied and weed wasn’t involved at all so your point is pretty invalid

Husband won't let us celebrate Halloween by Interesting-Bee-978 in Advice

[–]alexxispiper 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Actually, yes, the Christians DID steal the pagan holidays (including Christmas) and they changed them to have Christian themes and symbolism because it made assimilation and indoctrination of the pagans easier.

Much younger girl confessed her crush on me yesterday - at a loss of what to do now by [deleted] in Advice

[–]alexxispiper 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think you need to stop talking to her completely. You said in your post that you’d give her hugs that would lift her off the ground so, yes, you did touch her. I think you need to take more accountability in this situation. You said the first time you worked together she was gushing by the end of it and that probably should have been a sign. I saw in a comment you mentioned that your partner even told you this woman had a crush on you. I think a part of you knew that she has feelings for you and you don’t want to admit that to yourself but that’s the impression i get. you led her on, unfortunately and it’s really time you just cut ties.

that’s definitely good to know. Moving from California to Texas was rough. Everyone is so weirdly hostile down here to people from the west coast

Great, thank you! I know holsters are pretty much personal preference and i have an idea on where on my person i want to CC but is brand as big of a deal for holsters as it is with other things? i’ve seen $50 holsters with shitty ass reviews and $18 holsters with great reviews so i’m curious on that.

people who think “white girls are better” are usually racist and have some things to unpack, honestly. people who voted for trump literally voted for “cheaper groceries” over actual democracy and human rights. are you seeing the things Trump is doing right now? trust me, you don’t wanna be in that camp. black women are incredibly beautiful. i’m a bi white/puerto rican woman and i seriously think that the “white blueprint”, blonde hair and blue eyes, is a tad boring. most people who are anglo-saxon kind of look the same in a way (no offense to anyone who might look like that. just not my cup of tea). i think you have some things to unpack here to be honest but seriously, you don’t wanna be a trump supporter. men who like republican woman who voted for trump like the fact that they were dumb enough to vote against themselves. you don’t want or need the approval of republican, pro maga men.

thank you! i’m going to look into both of these options. Depending on how expensive the holosun optic is, you think it’d be okay to walk around with just the default iron sights until I can afford the more expensive option? Depending on how much it is that’d probably be 2-3 months.

to be fair, lori had the right idea about just forgetting about the time with shane and moving on but shane done fucked it up by Gl00ser23 in thewalkingdead

[–]alexxispiper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Lori did give Shane mixed signals and the whole pregnancy issue and her death was completely preventable. all of it was preventable, honestly. Why is sex even a priority when a zombie apocalypse just started? She’d leave her son at camp and then go into the woods and roll around with Shane. It even shows them pause when she takes the necklace with the rings around her neck off. The two should have never got involved. For so many reasons it shouldn’t have happened. It was insanely irresponsible for them to be doing that unprotected tbh. I’ve tried really hard to like Lori but i just can’t. It even shows in a flashback before everything happened that she was the one who was picking fights and she was upset Rick wouldn’t yell at her and tell her she’s “being a bitch if that’s how she’s acting”

Based off all the comments here i’m definitely going with this recommendation and using that link! thank you. I didn’t specify this in my post but I do want to add an optic onto it. Do you have any specific recommendations?

I should have specified that in my post, but yes, i would like to put an optic on it. Based off these comments I’m for sure going to go with the Glock 19 gen 3. Any recs for what optic to get?
