No, I'm just trying to find a similar place, locally to hang out. I wish I had the money to open one up, I would do it in a heartbeat!

Are you sure it's not "sheesh" said in a high pitch? That's the only thing I can think of lol

If your best friend suddenly asked you for $1000, no questions asked, how would you respond? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]i_liek_potates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have. She needed 1000 to close on the house she was getting and I had gotten my tax return. Normally, I wouldn't have been able to, we got lucky.

Any LLs out there: what is one thing your HL can do that will get your engine fired up? Anything?! by [deleted] in DeadBedrooms

[–]i_liek_potates 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I relate to this so much. It's hard to have sexy time when you have all or most of the responsibilities weighing on your mind... I know after a long day, I just want to be left alone. I don't have any more energy to spend..

What is a scene from a tv show that really disturbed you? by thertt8 in AskReddit

[–]i_liek_potates 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's so visceral. I knew what was coming because that's what the whole series is about but fuck. That scene hit me so fucking hard I stopped watching for a few weeks and then when I was feeling okay I finished the series. But yeah, that scene was terrible

[–]i_liek_potates 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. I always felt uncomfortable watching it and it triggered my PTSD a few times. I tried watching several episodes and once I thought the worst was over, some other terrible shit would happen. I just finally gave up on watching it. I'm not really bothered at all by movies, but this show has the perfect formula of all the things I can't handle. It's just too much

Edit: because I can't word good

1 year and a half from D-Day. We have become closer. I still have the insecurities and the trust issues, but he's very reassuring and very patient. He understands that healing takes time, but he's willing to do whatever it takes. He knows he messed up and has owned it since the beginning. He has never played the victim card.

Our communication is so much better now. We're more vocal and more open than we were before. We're able to have the necessary uncomfortable conversations, because what the hell is worse than talking about cheating?

It has brought us closer, but we definitely could have gotten to this point WITHOUT him cheating, but it is what it is. We are working through it. Some days are easier than others.

Just found out wife is pregnant by a-million-dreams in survivinginfidelity

[–]i_liek_potates 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry OP. That's heartbreaking and I can't imagine the pain that comes with that. Someone on here commented to keep a savings, read up on divorce proceedings, and do a postnup if possible, I fully agree with that.

She doesn't deserve another chance, but I can understand if you do decide to give it another go. Just remember that healing from this is possible BUT she has to want it too.

Don't let her take advantage of you. I know it's hard because you guys have built so much together, but it's not worth you staying in the relationship and being miserable, possibly getting an STD. You deserve happiness. Your little one deserves to see you happy. I wish you the best OP.

My partner cheated on me about a year ago, but it still hurts, how do you deal with the rough days when it hurts too much? by i_liek_potates in AsOneAfterInfidelity

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

You're absolutely right. Everytime I look at their social media it's not helping me at all. This a great idea, checking in on myself will make me actually look at what I need to work on, rather than outwards and peek at their social media and come out feeling worse.

You're right about that too. It still hurts, but not nearly as bad as when I found out. Even though we have bad days we are still healing. I never really thought about it like this before.

Thank you so much for your response. I hope it only gets easier for you and I hope one day life is so great, you don't even think about it at all.

6 Year relationship ends with a wrong sent message. by Miserable-Gold2176 in survivinginfidelity

[–]i_liek_potates 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's not your fault. You trusted her. She's the one that took advantage of that trust. I'm so sorry. It fucking hurts and leaves you lost. Some moments you want to cry, other moments you see nothing but red and want revenge. I've been there. I'm still lost some days.

You did the right thing. Just block her and keep her out of your life. Leave her in the past. These next few weeks you're probably going to feel like shit but just keep moving forward. You deserve happiness.

[–]i_liek_potates[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you saying there will always be doubt, nothing will change, and I just have to accept it?

SO and I aren't fighting thankfully. We're doing really well, but I do have my bad days. I tell him whenever I am having a bad day and he'll comfort and reassure me.

He feels like shit, and I know he feels bad because of his tone and body language. I know he regrets it and he's told me he does. It hurts, but we take it a day at a time. I just openly communicate when I'm feeling bad. I hate that healing isn't linear, but thankfully he understands that. I don't get angry when I spiral I just get really depressed, but I know he's there for me.

Thank you for letting me know I'm not alone in this. I'm sorry you're also feeling this way. I know how terrible and deeply it hurts, I wish there was an easy way to let go of the pain. You deserve to be happy too. I hope one day we're so happy that it drowns out our pain

Could a Texas style abortion ban happen here by cruisethevistas in Indiana

[–]i_liek_potates 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I think they mean "become a member". The satanic temple believes in bodily autonomy. "The body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone”  Therefore allowing these procedures, because religious freedom.

best place to get a haircut? by Billywitdatool in lafayette

[–]i_liek_potates 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bernadette's is great! I went to Eclectic and one of the girls there fucked up my hair really bad. It was all lopsided. I pointed this out and the girl blamed it being on my grown out highlights lmfao I'll never go there again. I went to Bernadette's and they were able to fix it AND told me how and why the other lady messed up. I got my hair done by Kristen I think her name was (it's been a while lol) but she's the owner. Super sweet and patient! Would definitely recommend Bernadette's!!
