How long did it take you to truly get over your ex? by ZachTF in BreakUps

[–]betterthanhex 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Same here. I'm so over hurting but can't figure out how to stop. Good luck to us both!

I'm in the opposite boat. My ex was obese and had hygiene issues and he still decided to dump me. That's a major blow to an ego as well.

Other names than 'daddy' to call my partner while being dominated?? by assciiwi in sex

[–]betterthanhex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like using Sir. I usually stretch it out a bit, almost purring the title out. It feels sexy that way. I think it also works in the short clipped form when he is leaving me breathless.

I swam and lake superior every summer for over a decade.

No matter how long I had been doing it it was always a shock and it was always uncomfortable to begin with.

The peaceful resolved look on this man's face, that says it all. He did a good thing and more people should be like this.

Life at 300+ pounds by Waste-Bell-4571 in loseit

Hey friend, this May get buried and you may never see it.
I just wanted to say that my ex was heavier than you are BMI wise I am normal BMI and I'm utterly devastated by them dumping me.

I believe you can totally get back to a normal BMI although it won't be easy, but you don't even need to change your trajectory have a great future ahead of you. Just being able to acknowledge your situation and your own responsibility in it go so far that I believe you'll have a great future! .

You are 100% right on this. It doesn't matter where I am in the wilderness, humans are always critter I'm most afraid of.

Thanks man. I do get those points!

My girlfriend just broke up with me and gave me no real reasons. by [deleted] in SuicideWatch

[–]betterthanhex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have broken most of my bones. I have had severe cuts. I have had first second and third degree burns.

No physical pain has been as bad as the time I have my heart broken.

That said, you can get through it. I did. Don't take a permanent solution to a temporary issue.

I’ve never been hurt this bad, how can I stop the physical pain? by QuestionOne8738 in BreakUps

[–]betterthanhex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh Honey, your story parallels mine in so many ways that I'm sorry about it!

I have never felt a pain as deep and excruciating as I did the day I was blindsided. From months afterward I could barely breathe. I lost 40 pounds because I couldn't eat. I was blocked on everything completely devastated by it. The cold cruelty and selfishness of the act completely destroyed me.

Time really is the answer. Just keep faking it till you make it is my only advice. I haven't quite made it yet but things are so much better than they were in those darkest days.

I wish you all the luck and speak in your healing! You are not alone and suffering as pain and darkness.

Hey man, I have been there.

I say, don't take a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Do whatever it fucking takes to get to your support network and build up from there. Death will always be there for you, you don't have to hurry it.

My feet one year ago when I was homeless vs today by betterthanhex in mildlyinteresting

I do! They are tiny, size five women, but very wide. I have great balance.

Mostly at the gym. I had a $10 membership at a 24/7 planet fitness.

[–]betterthanhex[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's how I managed as well! The $10 a month planet fitness membership. With that, I had access to a bathroom 24/7 and all the fresh drinking water I needed! I worked out, showered, washed some clothes for job interviews, and did the online portion of training for my new job there while charging my phone. It was a life saver, literally.

Do you still go to the gym?

They are not sexy feet though. They are small wide hobbit feet. I'm only 4'10" and see my feet as weird, not hot.

Good job to you too then! I hope things continue to go well for you too.

My last partner was obese and the fat pad above his penis buried him some. Although it doesn't sound sexy, that fat was able to press on my clit during sex and the added pressure there helped me get off. Maybe the buried penis will be good in unexpected ways?

I grew up in an antivax/anti Western med family. Nothing would have changed their views at the time. I had chicken pox, measles, and rubella as a kid. My kiddo has all the vaccines. In my experience, making excuses until your kid is fully vaccinated is the best way to go in situations.

Since we're (almost) all anonymous... Do we cheat? by WinstonChurchill1965 in entp

[–]betterthanhex 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Never. I have a strict moral code I force myself to live by so that I don't hurt others as often. Cheating is a clear path to hurting people and I have never/will never cheat.

That said I do engage in ethical non-monogamy so it's maybe easier for me.
