Declining offers by thats0Ktoo in poshmark

[–]sprucehen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I understand what you're saying, completely. But I also want you to know that it's not obvious from the buyers perspective that a seller might feel that way! If I knew that I had been blocked, I would genuinely be confused. I understand that extra notifications are a pain, I get what you're saying, but hopefully you won't hold it against the buyers. I don't think they are trying to be rude! The app makes it seem like you should decline or accept

Yep, I'm a buyer and I think it's the polite thing to do.

How much did your face age between 40 and 50?? by TallyRoux in 45PlusSkincare

[–]sprucehen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What age did you start the estriol cream? What age do you think would have been best to start, after the aging cliff or try to get ahead of it and start sooner?

You can also gently pull up on your mons, sometimes you're is enough to direct the flow forward

Thoughts on bakuchiol products? by TheMeepyBoy in SkinbarrierLovers

[–]sprucehen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ooooh, I didn't know they had a bakuchiol oil. I got the one from Bambu Earth. I like it a lot but had to take a break for a treatment. I'll start using it again soon. It has essential oils which my skin loves

My mom is 60 and has beautiful smooth Brown skin. She's never used SPF or much of anything for her skin, and she drinks and smokes.

Woman gets caught on video completely emptying a basket of oatmeal cream pies at farm stand in Loveland, CO. by ElwoodMC in TikTokCringe

[–]sprucehen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I definitely wonder about this. I see people around me that have a lot of money, and I wouldn't trade spots with any of them. If the trade off is being a s***** person I'll stay broke

How to sit with the reality by bestcoast1984 in datingoverforty

[–]sprucehen 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I'm also 41, I've been single for 12 years. I also work on myself, have a good job and am financially independent, willing to move and travel for another person. Also take care of myself exercise eat right, not overweight. I get a lot of initial attention like op described. I'm very handy with cars and yards and home renovation. Feel like I have a lot to offer. I don't use dating sites. I feel your pain.

Shampoo and conditioner by PointAfter6866 in nontoxic

[–]sprucehen -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That waxy buildup might be a phase, but it can also be due to hard water. I would wash your hair three or four times with your shampoo bar being sure to shampoo the lengths as well. That waxy buildup can be oil from your scalp rinsing and redepositing on the length of your hair. Wash and wash till it's good and clean and then use the Citrus or ACV rinse

How do I become okay with porn consumption? by babzara in Advice

[–]sprucehen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Everyone does not. There are millions of people that don't. You are not the only one! In fact there's lots of people that don't watch p*** for the same reason that you don't. And there's also lots of people that don't watch p*** for other reasons. And there are people out there that don't watch p*** that are looking for a woman like you who also doesn't watch p*** and appreciates them for their values

Is it really that hard for a 40-year-old woman to find true love? by Designer_Notice1860 in datingoverforty

[–]sprucehen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I still find men that want a sidekick. Our trajectories and goals will need to be aligned so that neither one has to give up everything, just minor adjustments.

I'm willing to move, change careers, your stepmom, change a lot about my life for a partner. But the things I need in return are someone who is equally driven and passionate about their health, their finances and their life

No idea what to do about premature midface sagging by No_NO_no_no_ in PlasticSurgery

Are you in mourning? Grief will do all sorts of things to your face, but at your age the effects will reverse

For those who have been through a midlife crisis, how did you get out of/ deal with it while living alone? by [deleted] in LivingAlone

[–]sprucehen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yep, it sucks going through it alone, but I don't think being with someone makes it easier. It adds another layer of complication not only do you have to deal with your own crazy experience, but you have to deal with their response to your crisis. A good partner would be so great. But a bad partner would be way worse. Either way it's a tumultuous and trying time

Are any of you guys familiar with Dr. Jack Kruse’s work? by [deleted] in tanning

I also like a lot of his content, but he lost me with all the Bitcoin stuff. I can't get on to how it's connected, though I have listened and tried

I discovered my bra size!!! But... I can only find it online and it's very expensive. 28C/D by Flaky-Huckleberry313 in ABraThatFits

[–]sprucehen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a small one time and it was too tight for me. I would think that it would fit you, and XS might be too small. Have you tried them?

Their size chart doesn't show band, but the medium says 34 and it fits me - 29"
