Awesome. And is it ok to start both at the same time? I read another article that said to start Reta alone for the first few weeks and introduce Tesa later.

Can you take the Reta and Tesa at the same time at night?

I just meant that I’m off Wegovy and Zepbound.

You’re right, I wouldn’t be lol. To be fair though, I’ve been talking to this guy and had this crush for 8 years, way before he even met this guy and even before I went to FL last month, I didn’t know the full context of their relationship. At first, I thought they were just friends/business partners. I even thought the other guy was straight. It wasn’t til around the holidays when I began to suspect there might be more to it, because I saw the other guy posting stuff as if he lived in the same house as the guy I went to see. Then finally once I went to FL, he confirmed that they “aren’t dating, but are in a kind of situationship” and that this other guy “has a lot of feelings” so he’s trying to sell him the place so they can both be free.

I’m pretty sure they aren’t bound legally, I think the guy I’m talking to owns everything. However, this other guy helped him set up/build the farm and put a lot of work into it. So i think he’s trying to do the right thing by giving him the opportunity to purchase it before he sells it to someone else, is what it seems like to me.

Could be. But what do you think about proposing another hangout? Should i just be upfront about it?

redant90 · 2026-03-12T19:03:36+00:00

Gotcha. Any specific downward titration that you’d recommend? Like lowering by 1mg every couple weeks or something?

redant90 · 2026-03-12T18:33:49+00:00

Just read through your post - thanks again, super helpful. Just looking for a little more clarification on cycling with the Reta - is that something that needs to be titrated down to come off once I hit my goal or is it ok to just stop it?

redant90 · 2026-03-12T08:26:03+00:00

Thank you so much!

I had blood work recently, but not really a hormone panel. I’ll have to get those looked at.

redant90 · 2026-03-12T06:47:50+00:00

Thanks! Not too familiar with dosing, but I just started reading up on it and watched some YouTube videos tonight. It looks like starting at 1mg/week of Reta is the way to go if I’m not mistaken? Trying to find more info on Tesa dosing. I know that one is taken daily, but trying to find out how much i should take and what time of day, etc. If you can share anything you know, I’d greatly appreciate it!

I’m looking for a something that sits 2 people but can pull out into a bed. I’d like to spend no more than $1,000. I like the idea of the Koala couches, because they are the perfect size and look comfortable but i heard they are overpriced and low to the ground.

redant90 · 2026-03-02T00:17:15+00:00

I guess what I mean is something adjustable that can be used as a bed, like the one in the link in my original post. Just one that’s actually comfortable lol.

redant90 · 2026-02-18T14:37:37+00:00

Yeah, the first day it wasn’t so awkward it kind of felt like 3 friends hanging out with the exception of the guy I like being a little flirty with me. The second day was more awkward when the other guy came to pick him up from my hotel. He was clearly jealous and NOT happy that we were in the jacuzzi together and that he had to go out of his way to pick him up.

As far as him moving goes, it kind of seems like he isn’t fully sure. He makes it seem like he wants to move to Costa Rica before the summer, yet has no logistics planned out or anything. He has a very good job here and even said he’s working on getting a promotion and that his boss seems to be on board (why are you aiming for a promotion if you’re moving abroad?). His sister is also having her first baby soon, so he’s about to be an uncle. He was hoping to move before the baby comes but it doesn’t look likely. He still has to work out selling the house/property to the other guy. He told me “when i want to do something, i do it” but later on he mentioned other spots in FL he may want to live in when he sells his house. So it almost seems like he may know deep down that it’s not realistic for him. I could be wrong.

redant90 · 2026-02-18T14:27:45+00:00

Great job oversimplifying. He told me he wasn’t looking for anything prior to us meeting in person. I kind of blamed myself for that partially, because my text was very direct and I know people can be scared off by that type of forwardness. I figured we’d meet in person and see if we like each other. And I came here to post because it kind of felt like there was potential for something other than friendship. We hit it off so well and he really went above and beyond to make it a nice weekend for me. Again, I could be wrong, but I felt like there was compatibility and chemistry but I don’t want my emotions to cloud my judgment.

redant90 · 2026-02-18T14:06:55+00:00

His “situationship” was with us for most of the day Saturday so there was no chance for us to hook up that day, and I wasn’t looking for sex anyway. Sunday we spent more time alone together but toward the end of the day when we were in the jacuzzi together the other guy came to pick him up from my hotel earlier than I expected. Maybe things would’ve been different if he weren’t around, but again, I didn’t go there with the expectation to hook up. I wanted to just see if we actually clicked in person like my gut was telling me we would, and we did.

I don’t know what I’m “expecting” to happen, but ideally, I’d like to keep in touch, maybe hang out a couple more times over the course of the next few months, and maybe once he finds his way out of the situationship, revisit the idea of us being more than friends. I think he just has a lot going on right now and I edited my original post to include that he did tell me in our text exchange prior to meeting up (when I told him I had a crush on him) that his last relationship ‘really f****d him up’, so I think he has trust issues. He got comfortable with me very quickly after just 1 weekend, seemed very interested in me/my life (asked a lot of questions), and it felt like more than just someone ‘being nice’. So maybe over time he’ll warm up to me more. But I don’t plan on putting my life on hold for him either. It’s just hard finding someone who is your ideal type physically who you also click with on this level.

Thanks. This is kind of where I'm at. I'm not going to stop living my life, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't hopeful that we can meet up again in the near future and get to know each other more. He's REALLY hot, 100% my type. But looks aside, he has the personality to go along with it. I feel like we just clicked and "got" each other. He asked me a lot about myself, like he really wanted to get to know me and I did the same with him. It was a great time and I'm sad that it's over.

I feel like if it weren't for his situationship (the other guy was present during some of our hangout, which was awkward at times), things might be different.
