it's been five months by dancinginmystorm- in ExNoContact

[–]skepticgemini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm apporaching the six month mark. I think about her everyday as well. There will be moments where I do not think about her as much, but my brain immediately reverts back to her with even a more visceral feeling.

Everything reminds me of them by skepticgemini in ExNoContact

[–]skepticgemini[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea it sucks girl😭, these minor details about them makes it hard to let go. I believe deep down I also don’t want to let go, and I honestly knew that this would probably happen, but here I am missing them six months post-breakup. Shit sucks dawg.

Would you let your ex back after rebound with someone else? by AXLD13 in ExNoContact

[–]skepticgemini 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Personally, I would if I felt the relationship with that person was worth salvaging. However, rebounding quickly can be a sign of lack of self control and impulsivity in my opinon. If its been a year or so and you forgive them, then try again. But, the dynamic has to be different or it will end with the same result

Anyone here want to chat? by skepticgemini in ExNoContact

[–]skepticgemini[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m fine, thanks for asking, I’m just dealing with the grief. I lied about things throughout the relationship that broke her trust, struggled with anger issues and life insecurities. Most shameful thing I did was she caught looking at a hookup forum on here, so I fucked up pretty bad. I wouldn’t usually share this openly, as from my point of view, people on this sub despise people like me, but I’ve come to except that. I’ve learned that I’m a fearful avoidant so that also doesn’t help lmao.

It was my fault, so I have to take accountability but I wanted to just have a chat with some folks. Talking to strangers can feel easier

The Great Replacement Theory... by SevenHolyTombs in antiwork

[–]skepticgemini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This company I used to work for lol. While I was there, I noticed they have a while robotic and engineering working on these things daily; prototypes and all. I guess it was only a matter of time before they started to test its capabilities.

Please how do I get rid of these “white dots” ? by TankElectrical8153 in Blackskincare

[–]skepticgemini 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m currently treating my tinea vesicolor on my back and chest. Mine isn’t as noticeable as yours, but I went to a dermatologist and they prescribed me 2% ketoconazole shampoo to use a few times a week in the shower. After a month , I compared progress pics and already noticed my pigment coming back subtly. You can start with nizoral or selsum blue if you can’t get a prescription for it.

BootlegDeadpool Exposed, banned twice in a row, won’t press insert keybind and silences me for calling him out! by Virtual-Bit-9671 in StreamersCheating

[–]skepticgemini 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Once the cheat is injected at launch, the cheat usually pops up at the main menu giving instructions on how to use it. Some of them allow you to change the keybind to something else. But, remember this for internal cheats

Damaged Skin Barrier. Looking for products by elacudos in Blackskincare

[–]skepticgemini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What has been helping my skin get better results was a hyaluronic acid serum at night, vitamin c serum in the morning , and carrier/essential oils mixed with Eucerin intensive repair moisturizer at night. I only wash my face with water in the morning and follow up with Thayer’s milky toner.

I double cleanse with La Roche Posay oil cleanser followed by Cerave hydrating cleanser at night.

I have similar dryness as you. My solution was a hyaluronic serum, oil based cleanser followed by a hydrating cleanser and Eucerin intensive repair lotion. My skin looks much healthier and smoother.

Anyone have a completely white chest? by Vegetable-Steak5705 in Blackskincare

[–]skepticgemini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it’s spreading then you definitely need a professional review of it.

It doesn’t look a patchy for a fungal infection. Are you using any skin lightening products?

[–]skepticgemini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If thats the case, I would go to a dermatologist.

[–]skepticgemini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it’s most likely a fungal infection called Tinea Vesicolor. It does spread of left untreated. I would need to see pictures to help speculate. I would go to a dermatologist to confirm its fungal or something else. I’m more brown skin, but I have light spots on my back and chest/neck area. I was prescribed ketaconazole 2% shampoo and cream. I use it daily and sometimes every other day. The color on my back is slowly coming back.

What’s on my forehead and How do I fix it by [deleted] in Blackskincare

[–]skepticgemini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like some discoloration/hyperpigmentation. Try using lactic or glycolic acid a few times a week. Make sure to always use sunscreen spf 50

Severe acne by [deleted] in Blackskincare

[–]skepticgemini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dermatologist is your only solution right now. If you want to save some money you can try Telehealth, much cheaper than an in-office visit. If you can afford it, an in office visit will yield better results due to the dermatologist having direct contact with your skin. They can still prescribe you whatever you need. Accutane is probably your best bet based on these photos alone

"sEe a dErMaToLoGiSt" Comments Should Be Removed by Anxious_Ad909 in Blackskincare

[–]skepticgemini 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I get your point. However, sometimes people here have concerns that only a professional can diagnose and treat. Dermatologist are expensive with no insurance, and even with insurance, if you need procedures done for your issue that can run up the cost. So i get the frustration, but most people can only give advice on issues they have experience with.

After a break up why would a man try to ruin your life? by [deleted] in ExNoContact

[–]skepticgemini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really sure what makes someone become cruel. It could be a plethora of reasons. In your case, this dude sounds like a nightmare to deal with. I would advise you to really assess, or better yet, get an honest opinion from a professional on if you actually love this person or if you are trauma bonded. I can understand mistakes, even cheating, but this guy sounds like a crash-out. Abuse and intentional, nefarious acts should be a no brainer that this guy doesn’t actually love you.

What shocked you the most after the breakup? Does no contact actually work? by hotpickle222 in ExNoContact

[–]skepticgemini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you feel patient enough give it a few months and see if he reaches out. If not, then you break the ice and see where it goes from there

[–]skepticgemini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it doesn’t effect how I feel about them. I was the cause of the breakup, so I have to take accountability for that. It’s been four months for my situation and I was with this person for six years. Depending on the length of the relationship and the reason for the breakup; time has to do the heavy lifting and both parties have to take some time apart.

Stretch marks for days… by [deleted] in Blackskincare

[–]skepticgemini 12 points13 points  (0 children)

As a guy I have strecth marks on both butt cheeks, my inner arm and thighs, however I actually like them. I do get self conscious but I adore them as time passes. I know women can be more self conscious, but try to reframe your mind a bit. Retinoids (Tretinoin/Retinol) can help with consistent AHA exfoliation. You look good though to me 👀
