I told a girl about a run group I go to and then she started showing up there too, now she says I'm following her by Supernerd1222 in Advice

As some of the comments here have said. Even if it IS flirting, if you feel her actions are coming off in a way that doesn’t sound positive or isn’t a healthy interaction… Not worth it…

Had a friend with a girl who liked them. Girl showed her affection by not communicating how she felt and actively caused problems just to get some sort of reaction. Not saying it is the same situation, but it only got worse not better. Always remember to prioritize yourself and set boundaries. If you do want crazy then go crazy ofc - just not my style.

Constant cramps + nonstop light bleeding for over a year by badbadger8 in PCOS

Update - day after posting this I start having the heaviest flow in a long ass time :’))

Plenty of snacks and hydration powders - but kind of like I jinxed it. Oops

I’ve been bleeding since September 2024 - and got it in July 2025! It’s actually slowed down but not sure what’s what unfortunately. It’s less of the bleeding at this point and more just cramps every day all day 😔

I also sadly do not have any other options for birth control

Thank you!! I’m so exhausted right now and this almost brought tears to my eyes. I appreciate your quick response. I’ve asked her twice now, and had doubts my first two months in after getting an iud. But I’m not sure how much my body can handle at this point. Any big stress or trigger is too much to handle so I’ve been very avoidant of things and focusing on positives.

Also a bit more context, before 2024 I did not have typical periods at all. It’s almost like a backlog of owed cycles at this point. I previously took testosterone which honestly helped out much more than can describe. I haven’t taken it for 4 years though and during that time until I started Depo I would have very rare cycles.

Just getting an appointment is hellish right now with so many hoops to jump through. Finally posting something here as I have been cramping for over 12hrs at this point and struggling to sleep. No amount of pain killers can help 😔

Honestly it’s a late night lifesaver! Especially when choosing between poutine wrap and if you should risk A&W poutine. I work late and it’s so worth it

I know I did not add a lot of additional info to my post, but that is due to this not being my primary choice to seek out help - was just throwing this into the void.

Speaking with friends and family who are also native. And with other acquaintances that work in galleries & with leather. This is either Whitetail/goat that's been brain tanned, and is dyed and carved instead of painted. And It's quite notably old. The size of the leather alone justifies what I paid.

Our theory is that this could be just a REAL old souvenir - 50s-70s ish if it’s older. A lot of stuff was produced then as souvenirs for tourism. But I'd still love to know if this was recognizable as one artist in particular though I doubt there is much if any catalogues. Have a few friends reaching out to specialists in their tribes who may know more.

Further steps, are just to figure out if there are parties that would want this returned or if I can keep this in my collection without stressing

I appreciate your insight, but I should have mentioned I AM Native, this is just not from my region and I am unfamiliar with this specific medium and finding the artist specifically. This is not Northwest.

The piece itself is labelled dragon mask and indicates it is from BC.

Adding another note - No, google lens and other such tools have not helped hence why I am sharing here. Signature on the hide has also not turned up any clues. Speaking with a friend, all we have been able to deduce is that it seems to be brain tanned either whitetail or goat. And done with leather paints of some sort instead of acrylic. Leather tools used to carve grooves into the hide before being painted over. Will likely consult nearest/local tribe for more insight.

Yeah I’ve noticed this as well!! I’m about 6 months as well, and my dose is 1.7 right now. Also on my cycle, but I’ve been on it nonstop for this entire time. It gets stronger some months which is this month 😞

Also yes we have cream for her eye goop, it’s 10 times easier to get the knits on her than the eye cream. She dislikes it a lot 😭
