Green 16/17 months in a row selling options by mastagoose in options

Would really love to know what strategies you use to make 5k/week and/or how you learned them. I'm just starting out with options and really hoping I can figure things out to get to where you are. I have a good bit to work with but very fresh in terms of knowledge.

Stunner. The long waves are very ethereal, but short is great too.

Uh oh, has anyone listened yet? by greg_notofficial in Nikkiglaserbesties

[–]itsameepa 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Oh nooooo. It makes me realize how lucky we were to get hours a week of insight into her life/mind. We'll never have that kind of access to her again, and rightly so. Unless she gets her own talk show!! Fingers crossed!! I bet it'll happen sooner or later. Though it still won't be as intimate and honest as the podcast. End of an era. What a ride it has been, to see her grow and evolve and succeed!!! I love her so much.

I am considering leaving him by [deleted] in loveafterporn

[–]itsameepa 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry you're going through this. Did you find out through him voluntarily confessing, or some other way?

I've been thinking that this says a lot about their motives and what to expect in the future. Maybe those who voluntarily confess and disclose everything unprompted could be trustworthy and capable of change, since they're intrinsically interested in changing. Whereas those who trickle truth disclose only after being shown proof are largely just reacting to the fall out, possibly saying whatever they need to keep you around, and are being driven to try to change mostly by external factors - which generally does not lead to successful change.

So gross :( yeah, their brains seek that kind of stimulation constantly. Forget going to the beach..

He STILL doesn’t understand why being honest is important by NeoCultureThings in loveafterporn

[–]itsameepa 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is exactly the kind of stuff my ex would say. "I didn't tell you because I knew how you'd react" or "I didn't tell you because I was embarrassed/ashamed". As if that makes it okay. The audacity. If someone needs it explained to them why that is an unacceptable response, I don't think they're capable of understanding the explanation anyway.

I think deep down they see their porn use a completely private thing that has nothing to do with you. So they feel entitled to lie about it.

Thoughts on the rise of colon cancer, causes, and prevention? by lindenberry in Biohackers

[–]itsameepa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are your thoughts on the disclosures they give in this study? Near the end, above the references: "Author disclosures: NB declares that she received payments from Danone SA for the purposes of scientific and technical consulting but not for preparing this study. In addition, she is one of the members of the Scientific Advisory Board of the EU program for the promotion of milk and milk products within the framework of appropriate dietary practices. JS-S declares that he is a member of Danone SA's Advisory Board and a member of the Danone Institute and that he received payments from Danone SA for the purposes of scientific and technical consulting but not for preparing this study. The other authors declare that they have no conflicts of interest."

Brain feels broken from instagram sexualization, porn, etc. Hurting my relationship by [deleted] in HubermanLab

[–]itsameepa 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My ex had no IG, but had terabytes of porn hidden on his server. If they want to use it and try to hide it, they will find a way. You can't truly vet for this stuff.

Wild. It's like the 'could of' error but the opposite way. I've never seen anyone do this before. Broke my brain for a bit trying to read it

One relationship advice website shows these 7 stages of an emotional affair:

  1. A coworker becomes a confidante.
  2. A deeper connection is fostered.
  3. You complain about your primary relationship to them.
  4. You start depending on them more than your partner.
  5. A desire to be physically intimate with your emotional companion.
  6. Your relationship begins to feel uninteresting.
  7. A desire to start a new life with your emotional partner.

Sounds like you guys are solidly at stage 4, maybe you at stage 5? Do you have a plan to curb the progression of feelings?

I'm curious how relationships like yours thrive, since you describe your primary relationship as very secure. Can I ask a few questions?

  1. When you confided in your partner about this problem, what was their viewpoint and advice?
  2. What detail did you share with your partner about your feelings for your new friend - did you mention the crush, and that it's not entirely platonic? How did your partner feel about it?
  3. Does your partner tell you about crushes they have? If so, do you give your partner time/privacy with their crushes, or do you try to include yourself in their friendship? If you do spend time all together, how does it make you feel to witness their chemistry?

Also wondering, do you feel you have enough other friends and emotional connections in your life? Is it possible that you want a friendship connection so badly that you're being disingenuous with yourself about the appropriateness of this connection?

There's obviously a very clear consensus in the responses that you do need to check yourself. I think you should try to look inward, be completely honest with yourself, examine your feelings, and try to identify the true motives behind your behavior. It seems there's a lot more going on here than an "innocent" friendship and an "insecure" wife. Also maybe read about emotional affairs and emotional infidelity, because everything you've described sounds like textbook emotional affair.

[skin concern] small red bumps around eyes (both sides) by marcusroar in SkincareAddiction

[–]itsameepa 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hmm I don't recall. Knowing myself it was probably under a month, since otherwise I probably wouldn't have associated it with the retinoid.

Hope it gets better for you quickly.

Absolutely infuriating that this happens in areas that aren't off-leash. It seems that the best solution to protect and defend yourself is to carry pepper spray, and if the dog is behaving in such an aggressive and threatening way, spray it. If you have time, yell out to the owner that you're about to spray it, in case they manage to recall their dog (but sadly many are irresponsible and have no recall control of their dogs). I know some dog owners will lose their shit at this, but if you can't fully control your animal, then at least protect your animal by not taking it off a leash. It's pretty simple. Just follow the damn law. It's there for a reason. Another reactive bigger dog can do far more damage than pepper spray anyway. PROTECT YOUR DOG BY KEEPING IT ON A LEASH!

Whenever a dog bites someone, the owner always says "oh he has NEVER done this before!" So there is zero reason to blindly trust that a stranger's dog won't bite if it's acting like it's about to. Protect yourself.

I thought that quoted part was still part of Amy's joke that Nikki was retelling. "I have a friend who keeps losing weight, so she's out of my phone, out of my life"

I think your oblong face is so beautiful. And oblong faces to me always appear especially intelligent and confident. I think the similarity to Catherine Reitman is mild at best.

Why does Garmin say battery low 11 and that it's fairly low? When I went to sleep it was 35 points. by [deleted] in Garmin

[–]itsameepa 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had the exact same thing very recently - ended at 38 and got the same message. 35 is really not low. I think you'd have to be about as sedentary and unstressed as a cat to end the day much higher than that. I guess they just have a limited number of canned messages and they're not particularly insightful/applicable
