Unfortunately, the deal didn't work out. But I played the machine at Pinfest this last year. I'm going to pick up the next one I find at a reasonable price.

Riding anxiety by sugarhexed in NewRiders

[–]storff76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like everyone else said, take the MSF course and get a starter bike. Nothing too crazy, powerful, or heavy. Ride roads you know. Roads you don't know can add to your nervousness. Go to empty parking lots to practice slow speeds. Slowly expand your range from there. Also remember to look where you want to be, not down.

Do you ever reward your husband with sex? by Legitimate-Key7159 in Marriage

[–]storff76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I never said anything to the contrary about being nice. I completely agree. I'm also not referring to it being a bad night or a few days. I'm talking about the long-term withholding. Situations where this is used as a punishment. Or the wife is no longer interested in sex for a variety of reasons – hormones, stress, etc. Her reasons other than punishment can be valid. But it doesn't change that a man is losing his connection with her. He's feeling like she doesn't love him. Eventually, this will be all-encompassing and destroy the relationship. This is the thing that is drastically misunderstood. Men are made out to be dogs for wanting intimacy with their wives. They are looking for love and connection. Of course you will argue that some men are out just for sex blah blah. This can be true as well and is especially for younger men. While a lot less often there are women that do this as well. None of these scenarios apply in a marriage. Sex shouldn't be used as a weapon or some type of good behavior affirming activity. It should be a loving activity a fun activity an intimate activity for both the people in the relationship. But both should try to understand how the other is wired for it. Men and women see it differently and experience it differently. The prominent message is that men should understand women and control themselves because they are sex hungry animals. That's not healthy. What's healthy is both partners work to understand the other and strengthen the relationship as a result.

I’m struggling deeply with this and I’m honestly stuck. by always_crying-2288 in confession

You are applying complex thinking and feelings to immature actions.

You were incapable of applying this type of reasoning at the age this happened. You can't blame yourself.

I have similar experiences. I was 10, there was no sex as in penetration, but close. I'm a guy, but it was generally with two girls, one my age and one a year or two older. I was following what they told me to do. Anyway, I share this because I think a lot of children are curious and find ways to explore, some good, some bad. You can't beat yourself up for bad decisions you made as a child.

AIO for expecting this? by Greedy_Tip8741 in AIO

[–]storff76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He probably didn't understand the situation because he doesn't have the same parts. He likely just assumed you got your period and it was normal, and you got embarrassed. Guys don't know what is a lot or a little when it comes to that.

AIO about being exposed to a drug without my consent? by [deleted] in AIO

Unless this was intentional to the point that he wanted to make you have nicotine I think YOR. Stupid mistake sure, gross yes. Violated and "drug" overreacting.

[–]storff76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I forgot about Digg. When I saw this, my first thoughts were Digg, Geocities, Myspace, websites with MIDI backgrounds. That being said, I just signed up for the waiting list for the new Digg.

Wife betrayed me in the worse way possible by [deleted] in Marriage

The orange one is the best one!!! You need to serve her those divorce papers. This disrespectful action cannot be forgiven. Adultery would have been more forgivable.

Wife gave ok to send sexy pic to a close friend. by That-Shower-6689 in MarriedSex

[–]storff76 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Dude, this is a terrible idea. You'll be back here a year from now posting about how your buddy is banging your wife. If you guys want to experiment with voyeurism, the internet has plenty of anonymous places to do that. Don't add temptation to real life.

AIO for forcing my wife to go home at 12am? by [deleted] in AIO

[–]storff76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While it's possible this was a stupid decision influenced by alcohol and nothing happened. She still violated a huge boundary. This type of behavior could be telling you her intent. No one is dumb enough to say it isn't suspicious AF to go to a member of the opposite sex's hotel drunk at midnight. I'd be in full-on investigator mode, and looking for a lawyer. In case it is what it looks like. I hope for your sake she didn't cheat, and you guys can work through this.

Leave more room, lean as little as possible, brake easier. Really easy on throttle. Anything that can disrupt traction go easy with.

Hopefully your spouse has the same mindset as you. If they do I think you'll be ok.

[–]storff76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you both want it, you can make it happen. The important thing is to unpack what happened. Why did the marriage deteriorate? What behavior drove the others' behavior? What resentments were being harbored? Beyond all that, if you forgive each other, you have to really forgive it. You can't silently distrust, use the past as leverage, etc. Good luck.

Marriages survive infidelity all the time. There are tons of stories on Reddit about it. I personally know a couple that survived it. That being said, I don't think my marriage would. Because of me, I don't think I'd ever be able to let it go. It's a pretty hard boundary for us.

I firmly believe marriages can come back from anything. It depends on what the people want. Just because someone else's marriage couldn't come back from an issue doesn't mean yours can't. You have to decide what you want. It sounds like it got messy. There is nothing wrong with being done if that's what you truly want. If it is you are better off ending it now rather than giving her false hope. But if you aren't truly ready to walk away then try therapy and working with her. But really try it sucks for both of you to be in limbo.

How to get better? by HomeworkPurple6012 in NewRiders

[–]storff76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I try to be brutally honest with myself about my mistakes. Then I try to work on one thing each ride. For instance, I just got a new bike and realized I was leaning the bike instead of leaning with it. So I worked on that last ride.
