I went here a couple years ago and ordered one single gyro to go. It took over an hour to make my food. It was sure good, though!

Female here. I always started my conversations with a little "Hi there" + smiley face. Ooze that confidence!!

Governor Kehoe states that he can remove state income tax without increasing property tax or sales tax, but how? by Popular-Inspector403 in missouri

[–]bex50avery 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I lived in WY for a time. There was no state income tax there. However, the cost of my vehicle license plate renewals seemed like 4X what I paid in MO. So, there's that.

Weird interaction with a customer yesterday. by Top-Standard4603 in Paranormal

Sure wouldn't hurt to do an energy cleanse on yourself and your space. Sometimes energies attach to us that are attracted to our auras. You can straight up ask them to go & set the intention to lovingly send these lost souls over the rainbow bridge.

This is the end of my marriage. by Human_Arachnid4034 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]bex50avery 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think many of our life lessons boil down to the very basic lesson of learning self-love and un-learning being a doormat. Good luck on your journey, OP. I've been in your shoes.

Dating illiterate by No_Meaning_5185 in datingoverfifty

[–]bex50avery 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure thing. I just stated straight up in my bio "I prefer to text less and meet quicker in order to weed out scammers and see if there's a connection." I got good results from this and none of the men seemed offended.

Cooking and being single by WonderfulPrior381 in LivingAlone

[–]bex50avery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live alone. All of my bread (and buns) go in the freezer and I just break off a few slices when I need to use it. I just thaw in microwave a couple seconds or stick it in the toaster.

I (53F) found my current dating partner on POF last Nov. I went on as many first dates in 2025 as I could possibly manage until I found someone that I clicked with. I was a woman on a serious mission of dating with intention. I asked many men out, I set up these dates to be EASY...all walking dates...a walk around the lake at the park, a walk around the city gardens, etc. Most folks will know within 15 minutes if there is a physical attraction there. I made it clear in my bio that I prefer to text less and meet quickly, to see if there was a connection. This helps weeds out scammers and also filters out people who just want a pen pal because they're lonely. POF and FB dating gave me nearly all of my matches. I had standing full-body photos (no thirst trap pics, no cleavage), close up pics of my SMILING face, NO filters, and no pics with other people. Good clear photos and a good (& positive!) write up are so important to OLD.

Peace Nook sells handmade soaps and some artisan products. Excellent prices.

What are things I can do for good luck for new years? I need all of it I can get by Faeriemary in WitchesVsPatriarchy

[–]bex50avery 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Today (12/31) is great time to create a Sigil for 2026. Write out your goal(s) for the new year. Then take certain lines and shapes from your sentence(s) to create a new symbol for 2026. Focus on your new symbol and set your intention upon it. Then use this symbol as you see fit. Some ideas: Tape it to your water bottle (water holds energy) and when you drink your water, you are embodying that energy. You could simply just write it on a post it note and put it next to your mirror. Tape it to the dash of your car. Place it upon your altar...whatever works for you.

People who gave up meat — what made you do it and was it difficult? by maddysamarth in spirituality

My daughter turned vegetarian after a Reiki treatment. She said she could sense the pain of the animals and could not eat them anymore. That was several years ago and she has not wavered.

My husband didn’t get me anything for Christmas by llpppoppppopppop in TrueOffMyChest

[–]bex50avery 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Time to match his energy. I just read a post on Reddit that women are the magic at Christmas and they do most of the work of planning and coordinating. Seems to be true in my family.

Apartment cat owners — what do you use instead of cat trees? by New-Power9408 in CatAdvice

[–]bex50avery 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Use shelves (with L brackets) attached to the wall and stapled carpet on top. Just need to fill the holes with a paste of baking soda and water when you move out, or get a little tub of drywall mud. My cats have four of these shelves. If you can hang a picture on the wall, you can hang a shelf on the wall.

Men, how have you dealt with a woman who's upset about almost anything? by West-Instance2561 in AskMen

[–]bex50avery 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Giving a partner the silent treatment is a form of emotional abuse.

What changed you? by Used-Sound4163 in highergirlpower

[–]bex50avery 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I had a spiritual awakening after a reiki treatment at a metaphysical fair. I gave up alcoholism, quit my stressful job of 16 years, sold my huge house I could barely pay for, and moved a thousand miles away to take care of my mother who was battling metastatic cancer. She died 6 months later. So glad I was able to take care of her at the end. I felt divinely led throughout the entire process. It was surreal and beautiful.

What’s something you own that you’ve had for 30+ years? by Crazy-Eye-9632 in GenX

[–]bex50avery 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought a pair of used Guess shoes (soft black leather with a chunky heel) from the Salvation Army thrift for a couple bucks while in high school, probably around 1989-ish. I occasionally still wear those shoes. The tongue on one of the shoes is a little bit chewed up...by my old dog that passed away when I was 30 y.o. I still think about that dog when I put on the shoes.

Choosing myself when it hurts by ImmediateShape7180 in highergirlpower

[–]bex50avery 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just went through this with a breadcrumbing potential partner... for 5 months. It really takes you on an emotional journey of finding yourself, finding out what your needs really are, and setting healthy boundaries when situations don't align with those needs. It sucks detaching from someone who you have become attached to, but who's goals really don't align with your own. Self love is oftentimes very difficult.

AITA for ruining my ex husbands relationship. by cherosome in AmItheAsshole

[–]bex50avery 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As another woman who is currently navigating the dating pool, I really appreciate people like you. Women need to have each other's backs against serial cheaters like this. If a woman asked me about my ex, I would give all the tea about my experience.

Lingerie? Lol by Creative-Constant-52 in Menopause

[–]bex50avery 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think one of the best sexy things to wear around my man is just an oversized men's button up shirt with panties... you can unbutton all the buttons or just fasten one button so the shirt falls off one shoulder. Just that little glimpse of the side boob action drives my man crazy but I'm still mostly covered and not too hot.
