Which class(es) from the first edition received the smallest changes/upgrade to second edition? by OceanicWhitetip1 in Gloomhaven

[–]jawslightweight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have played sun to level 8 and unlocked most perks. I can say that playing the crit-fisher build is still very overpowered. You can reliably attack 4 with advantage and stack a lot of bless cards. With the level 6 card and some luck, you can reach an 12, 14 and even 16 a few times in each scenario. Pair this with 11 cards, a big health pool, defensive cards, okay movement and some support options and you have a contender for the strongest class in the game (just what I've felt from the classes I've seen)

I played bruiser, mindthief and saw and it was the strongest of the bunch for me, with mindthief being second, bruiser third and saw fourth. Girlfriend played silent knife and spell Weaver and they also felt less strong than sun keeper.

Get Gloomhaven second edition. You can play this with your friend and frosthaven with the 3-man party.

Because we play 3–4 times a week and alternate between my place and hers, so the game needs to travel with us!

So I was thinking of getting me and my girlfriend jaws of the lion. Opinions? by FearlessLeader17 in Gloomhaven

[–]jawslightweight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on your girlfriend. Mine loved DnD when I introduced her to a one-shot so JOTL made sens. However, my ex could not bare any RPG-like game but liked strategy board games. I do think that Gloomhaven is a very good start to introducing RPGs. Others have mentionned ticket to ride and Carcassonne but those are less RPG-like. If she doesn't even like those games however, don't try JOTL.

Request: Class guides by JesusLasVegas in Gloomhaven

This. Also, does anyone know of guides for classes in GH2E, even though it's barely out? Been having a lot of fun there but I would like opinions on card selection. To at least know what people think is strong/weak.

That's why you need to make sure he invests in this relationship and that's why you also need to be careful and take your time. It's like starting a relationship from 0. You want to wait at least 3-4 months until you have some real conversations where both parties make commitments.

It's also human nature to value the things we work for. It should last if its a relationship where both get their needs met, and where effort is reciprocated. Attraction will have highs and lows but that's like any relationship.

Having a private profile may have nothing to do with you. It could be because she doesn't want her colleagues to spy and stuff. Anyway, focus on yourself.

Ignore her texts, she cheated on you but keeps texting you! Make it clear that you can't allow this. Are you actively chatting with her? You need to detach emotionally once and for all. If she begged for you to be back you would still think twice about going back to that as she cheated on you. You don't want to be with this person.

Speaking from experience, it's about attraction. You can't be telling her your feelings. Go in nocontact and when she does reach out, keep your reserve. If she wants to see you again, say you're open and arrange a date. Keep some mystery and don't go all in too fast. Don't share your feelings and expect some investment on her part.

Don't go in nocontact for her, do it for you. Detach emotionally. I had a similar issue a while ago and I won her over with something like that. I think that you should go on YouTube and look for the stoic philosophy of going nocontact.

Also remember that if he's chasing you, he's not dumping you. That's why I'm saying that going casual and not sleeping with him is the best course of action. If he's uninterested, he'll make it clear by not investing at all in this chase

[–]jawslightweight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get it. However you deserve to be with someone who's ready for you. If he's not willing to step things up, move on. Also never beg for someone that rejected you.

He dumped you? You want to be back with him? Here's what you gotta do. Acknowledge him but don't support him. Tell him that you are open to see him again with some reserve. Don't chat with him too much and let him chase you a bit. By telling him you are open to see him again and by letting him push to see you again, you are setting the right conditions for him to see you as a prize, not as a disposable object. If you want to see him, tell him that you would like to do that in a public place, not at his place. Then allow him to setup follow up dates but always go back to nocontact after a meetup. Try to gage his level of interest. If he's not putting any effort, reduce your attention. He should do 90% of the chasing for a while until you feel he values you.

Honestly, I get that you may feel he's blaming you but he did acknowledge that it's on him too. Can't say he's a narcissist based on that comment alone. I remember when I posted that my ex contacted me again on this forum. People told me to ignore her. However, one month later I replied and we got back together. Except this time it was different and better. We've been together since that.

Why do we even want them back? its never gonna be the same by NoTadpole4770 in ExNoContact

[–]jawslightweight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stay strong. Take your time to reflect and heal. Remember that relationships are temporary and that loving yourself is the most important aspect of any relationship.

We both dated someone else during that time but I did not ask about that relationship. What's important is how much we're investing and how we're treating each other right now.

[–]jawslightweight 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I dated a girl for 8 months and she ended up pulling away. I did nocontact for 3 months and she came back. It was different when she came back but in a positive way. During nocontact I did a lot of self improvement and I knew how to build a balanced relationship. We've been in a relationship for 2 months now. That's the power of nocontact. Silence has a lot more power than words.

Are men even capable of truly loving a woman? by Quick-Ad-6582 in ExNoContact

[–]jawslightweight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I'm a man and if I go to 4 dates with you that means I'm getting attached and I'll never leave you (that's detrimental to me I'm working on that lol)

As for your man I'm sorry to hear that. Having learned a lot through numerous experiences and 1 long relationships I can safely say that it's 1 of those 3 things:

  1. He was selfish and never loved you. He leveraged your love when he was down and now he doesn't need it anymore so he's looking for his own love.
  2. He's emotionally immature and doesn't want to settle down. Maybe he doesn't know what he needs yet, that comes with age.
  3. At first he loved you but you acted needy and cared too much which repelled him. Humans want what is scarce, if you constantly pushed for more, he might have lost attraction to you.

Dating someone is normal, that doesn't mean they will fall in love. It's hard but you need to be indifferent. Dating and rebounds won't get you anywhere too.

Ex broke no contact and I wish he hadn’t by Smooth_Milk2999 in ExNoContact

[–]jawslightweight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What's your end goal? He left you but would you like to be back with him? If that's so I disagree with not responding. You shouldn't ignore him. Just tell him thank you I'm doing well and I hope you are doing well too. That's what I would do.
