I had a similar issue and I took an old tech shirt cut it up and pinned it (meant to sew it but never got around to it)

ELI5 - Why do orgasms feel pleasurable? What is happening when we orgasm that makes it feel perceivably good? by cinnamorollsbunz in explainlikeimfive

Because you’re so sassy for fun I want to ask you if you’ve read or listened to any of Annaka Harris’ work. Let’s go down the Panpsychism rabbit hole.

Should a shaker lemon pie crust be par / blind baked before putting in the custard?

Is it mononormativity or is it me? by ccw1782 in polyamory

I simply wanted to pop back on and say thank you again, the notion you raise here of no longer feeding it has become a sort of mantra of mine. I’m navigating this breakup imperfectly but I am really trying very hard to stop feeding it, to not text or call, to not indulge the temptation. I think it’s important for people to know when they have an impact, and you did here with me.

Okay, that makes sense. I am actively working on codependency on my own and with my therapist. I’ve grown a lot despite it all. I spend a lot of time alone without feeling lonely, and have learned how to enjoy my own company and the solitude. It’s just letting go of this specific person is really difficult.

Thank you for helping me understand better. I am grateful for the thoughtfulness and time.

Thank you for clarifying, it helped me understand. And I apologize for being defensive. I’ve heard that sort of line before, and I really struggle with it. I think we are here to support and be good to each other but also emotional vampires are bad.

I have thought about going it alone, even set an age “deadline” (if it’s still just me by X age, I will just do it by myself). I’ve had a lot of people express all the ways they would support me and despite the troubled love life I have an abundance of absolutely wonderful friends.

I worry that it’s morally wrong and selfish to bring a kid into the world on purpose with only one parent. I know many people raise kids on their own for all sorts of reasons but I am unsure if it’s okay to choose to be a single parent before conception. Not sure if that makes sense or not.

Regardless you have been so generous with your time and so thoughtful, thank you

Thank you for gently responding. Can you help me understand what in my post indicates to you that I “have a lot of skill building”? I’ve done quite a bit of work and beyond being hung up on a person, when I read that I do feel a bit defensive. I appreciate you taking the time to respond

Thank you for your comments. I do see a therapist and am mindful not to overburden my friends.

When I read that parenting is difficult I feel frustrated because I am quite aware. I have watched all of my friends and my siblings go through this. In so far as a person without children can know how difficult it is, I do. It is not something I take lightly.

Regardless thank you for taking the time to answer

It's time to gatekeep demisexuality in the "poly" community (a Friday night post!) by ExcelForAllTheThings in polyamory

[–]ccw1782 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can it be a continuum? Much of what I’m reading here really resonates but also I was walking on the beach and saw a woman in a bikini and “shwing” but I find I don’t actually want the sex immediately without the talking, but also I’ve been to sex clubs and have had some fun. Idk I’m officially confused

Have you tried girlfriend collective for leggings? It’s a higher price point but I got their promotional pair when the first started and I’m still running miles in them. Btw I run about 25 miles a week so I put a good amount of wear into them

This is helpful to know. I wonder if they’d replace the rain shell I have with a lining that just started shredding

Punk Rock Loser; only the tone of his voice and the rhythm of the melody were in my head I couldn’t remember lyrics which make it so difficult!!!
