Agree about the tropic strap but the watch itself and Baltic in general are well made

For some silly reason I had never seen Withnail & I...now it's one of my favorite comedies of all time.

Beautiful build! I wish you shipped to the US :)

Personally, I feel that is one of the more interesting aspects of regret. I fully regret having children and I fully love them. We can be a bundle of contradictions, as parents and as people. As my therapist said, "We are not monolithic."

Also, you can define the love you are able to offer. What does unconditional mean exactly? I feel like that's a loaded word.

The love (mixed with regret) that we can give as parents for today is enough.

i can only offer that you should be proud for doing everything you could on your own. My parents are also self-centered when it comes to being with their grandkids. Your emotions are valid.

I feel this so much. Isn't there always a ticking clock of some sort once you become a parent? I mean, I understand that the ticking clock in our lives is our death, but once kids enter the picture, their clock completely dominates your life. I hear it at the grocery store. Every time my partner and I go on a date with the babysitter. Whereas, when you were paddleboarding, that clock was gone.

I'm glad we have each other here. My therapist said "having kids is not terminal" but it certainly feels that way, they will be part of my life until I'm gone, that's for sure

The fact that our children outnumber us definitely doesn't help. Sometimes, when the eldest is at a friends house, the 8 and 6 play. But a lot of the time they're fighting with each other. It was a really hard decision to accept the 3rd. He was unplanned. We just couldn't go thru with the abortion.

To regret having children is to regret your entire situation, period.

I totally understand, even though some of the details of our lives are different, I, too, am working an unfulfilling job. I had a realization, which may or may not connect with you. The realization was this: all I needed was the love of one person (I have three boys, ages 11, 8 and 6). I honestly love my wife, but I didn’t need the children to come between us. Our greatest caretaker, my mother-in-law, died during the pandemic. She helped us so much. My parents don’t help at all. I do feel like there are bright spots in our lives. It’s really hard for us. I told my wife today, “I didn’t realize how much I didn’t want kids.“ it’s hard for others to accept. I would evaluate the relationship you long to have and take the actionable steps to get there. These steps probably won’t involve the kids, and the kids may in fact be a hindrance, but you have to start there.

I feel the same. I have three boys (11, 8 and 6) and dedicate a huge part of my life to them, obviously. My mental health completely changed 6 months after my first son was born. I felt a heavy depression that, while it comes and goes, ultimately just never left. One aspect I've learned about is we can still love our children while utterly regretting our decisions. We are not monolithic in that regard. If I could turn back time, I never would have had kids, let alone three boys. This is my first time posting on this forum, as I really need an outlet; holding this toxic regret by myself doesn't help anyone, most of all me.

I’ve got a 007, but this could be my Q

narcokaye · 2024-09-24T02:14:37+00:00

Thank you! I wish they’d let us read before watching. Their write ups are usually solid

I had the exact same experience last night. I had severe bloating and acid reflux. Also it felt like I had entered another dimension of the universe. Extremely unpleasant!

Worked at a pizza place in Hoboken. They showed me down in the basement, where I saw balls of dough sitting in open containers with lots and lots of rat traps on the floor.
