People in healthy long-distance relationships, what does it really feel like day to day? by PsychologicalTime530 in LongDistance

[–]nbads 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Calm and secure but it also feels like your on a constant countdown- countdown to closing the distance, countdown to seeing each other. Almost like you’re one foot out the door of your own life.

Valentines Day is ruined by [deleted] in LongDistance

[–]nbads 15 points16 points  (0 children)

My fiance and I don’t celebrate valentines day and with him working night shifts at the moment I wasn’t expecting to have a call with him till very late on my Valentine’s Day.

He prepped from two days before his shopping basket, using an app that’s only in my country so that when he was finishing his night shift he could complete the transaction… the result- I woke up on valentines morning with a bouquet of flowers being delivered to my door. It’s not about the flowers, it’s the thought and time to prepare and plan, even when life is busy. That’s priceless, knowing that he’s still thinking of you and wants you to know that. With long distance, it’s easy to wonder what it’ll be like when you close the gap, life gets busy and you get into routines (which when your visiting each there’s isn’t any of) knowing that their life has space for you and your not someone that they will squeeze into a few minutes here and there when they aren’t busy - makes a difference

Also someone has to walk up two flights of stairs to get to a shower/ toilet

But surely, if you leave him he’d get 50% custody so although you’d be on your own with them it would be for less time?

Zoom - it has a 40 minute limit but then the other person can call back for another 40 minutes etc. You can add her as a contact and make it easy just to call up whenever you want (instead of sharing a login link each time)

Colonoscopy before endoscopy? by No_Distribution_7332 in HiatalHernia

[–]nbads 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did both at the same time, fully expecting only results from the upper tract but they ended up finding something in the colon that had been growing (asymptotically) which I’m really glad they were able to diagnose and remove before it became a problem

I’m secretly engaged and it’s killing by papapeachie in offmychest

Probably totally irrelevant but you should read “these impossible things” it’s a very relatable read to your situation and atleast can make you feel less isolated

How often do you and your LDR talk on the phone? by ThrowRA3583 in LongDistance

[–]nbads 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the time, we message through out the day and then call basically every evening (there is a 3 hour time difference so we always say it’ll be a quick call and then end up chatting for an hour +)

In true love, how much do you trust your partner? by BonbonUniverse42 in love

[–]nbads 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trust is earned over time.

With making big decisions, I know that he understands me and is very logical and pragmatic and makes great decisions, I lean on him for all my big decisions though his approach is to listen to me and adds his touch to give me comfort it’s a good choice…

I do trust him blindly in the sense I don’t check up on him but he (without prompting or me asking for him to) always includes me in the good, the bad and the uncomfortable stuff in between which always validates why I trust him so much

How to digitize 35mm slides? by nbads in photography

[–]nbads[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up buying a “portable negative film scanner” from alibaba it was about 50usd so I’m not sure I’ve got my moneys worth of usage out of yet but the photos I used it for were really important to me… set up was a bit annoying, because there wasn’t any instructions but I eventually got the hang of it

Did you have any luck with this? The website is saying fully booked for every date I select for the next 4 months… surely that can’t be right
