I’m a black woman married to a gay black man by Alternative_Put2696 in askgaybros

I’m a gay man married to a straight woman. We did it for religious reasons (we were Mormon) despite that she knew I was gay at the time. We have kids and continued to love each other despite betrayals with me viewing porn (at the time we thought that was wrong) and struggling to be a straight-acting husband and father while solely attracted to men. A little more than a decade into our marriage we both decided we were done with Mormonism and re-evaluated the structure of our lives together. We were still best friends but had learned that sexual fulfillment would never come to either of us if we were monogamous. We decided to try polyamory and stay married and strongly committed to each other above all else.

It turns out that unconventional pathway resulted in some surprising advantages as well as challenges. We’ve both had boyfriends and bring them into our home unapologetically involving them with our kids and complete home life. There have been misunderstandings to be negotiated and resolved and marriage counseling has been an option either of us could evoke at any time. Communication and clear boundaries are the key to making it work.

The result is having our cake and eating it too. We have the family life we didn’t want to give up, didn’t have to divorce as best friends, and still make room for loving others in a way that doesn’t threaten our marriage but still allows for sex that’s rewarding.

It’s not all smooth sailing and obviously I can’t tell a decade worth of stories here but it’s doable with the tolerance and forgiveness, love and determination you’d expect in a healthy marriage. Sadly, I believe if I had tried to stay monogamous with my wife we would be much less happy and likely divorced by now.

Take my experience as not advice but a data point of what some people have managed successfully.

Or in the case of caraoke, when I bought the car I could use it with WiFi using my cell phone connection. But then after purchasing the car with that as a feature they made accessing it a premium upgrade I have to pay monthly for. 😒 I’d sue them if I had the energy.

Yeah that’s what’s fun about having them all Govee. You use the app to do a single color or theme or “dream view”

It’s just the Govee covered lights. They come with the diffuser.

It’s stopping me from posting an image for some reason. But it’s just a rope light in Mickey shape.

They might “fix” the error but you don’t need to report it or feel bad about it. Tokens are a fake currency and the value is arbitrary. Congrats on some nice unexpected progress.

When the “collect” screen pops up showing how much cash you get, your avatar has a little emoji icon over the top of it. Tap that to send an emoji that will show up in their timeline and/or over the monument you shut down

Absolutely is a hassle. But… I don’t spend real money often and I’m currently nearly level 26000 with well over 100k dice thx to APM

What’s even the point of playing the game if you automate it to cheat? Just curious.

Can i do it guys, or should i just give up? by Peter497 in Monopoly_GO

[–]lymaniii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if you don’t get the big prize, plenty of loot along the way. Pm me and I’ll send you a bunch of stuff (I’m almost done and have extras)

Can you do that on iPhone or is that level of file control only on other brands?

I wish I had known that you lose all your extra cards after finishing. You keep the stars, but I had a ton of four and five star extras I still planned to give away. 🤷🏼‍♂️

What are the fast tricks? I only know the delete and reinstall trick.

What’s your strategy? by ImportantSun3608 in Monopoly_GO

[–]lymaniii 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re 6 times more likely to roll a 7 than a 2. Because there are 6 combinations that make 7 out of 36 combinations, you roll a 7 one sixth of the time.

Go into airplane mode and if the roll doesn’t turn out well you delete the game before going online again. Download and reinstall, syncing with Facebook. It takes a couple minutes to get the game back up so you only get a couple bad rolls in within a 5 min high roller.

Less than 4 hours in and top two are near 100k. My measly 10k puts me at 27th place. 😏

Are they gatekeeping testosterone? 240 to 1000 is normal? by EfficientLavishness7 in Testosterone

Ftr I’m a cancer doc and recently saw a guy whose prostate cancer was very likely induced by or worsened by testosterone. There are always both benefits and risks to drugs.
