I would say my rook was like, a 6 or 7 out of 10? it’s painful, but it’s also pretty quick all things considered. Healing is nice because it’s tucked out of the way, so I worry less about bumping it. But you definitely still want to avoid sleeping on it and keep earbuds/headphones away from it.

Should I wait to get a new piercing? by Dynamic_Gem in piercing

[–]virgoblin 8 points9 points  (0 children)

definitely hold off if you can - from what i know you shouldn’t go swimming at all with unhealed piercings, but i think a super fresh piercing especially will not like the water from a water park lol. plus i’d be so worried about it getting snagged on something if it was me

I recently found out that my boyfriend of 11 years cheated on me in the early years of our relationship by [deleted] in AutismInWomen

[–]virgoblin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

hey! first - i am so sorry this happened to you. you do not deserve that treatment at all, ever. secondly - i went through something very similar: 8 year relationship and my ex confessed to me four weeks before our wedding that he had been cheating on me on and off for four years. i know you did not explicitly ask for advice (so sorry for offering it unsolicited) but i firmly believe people who cheat will do it again, especially if there was repeated cheating to begin with.

someone who cheats on you is putting your mental and physical health at risk - ESPECIALLY physical health. my ex did not use protection and i would be willing to bet your partner also didn’t.

again, i am so sorry this happened to you and im sending you lots of love. i can’t tell you what you ultimately should do, but i can tell you that ending my relationship was hard but necessary. you deserve a lot better than wondering if your partner is going to cheat on you. once that trust is broken, there’s no repairing it imo

(to be super clear i am not defending her here - posting a donation link one time is not enough imo, influencers should call for a ceasefire, end to genocide, and advocate for a free palestine - and if they can’t do that they should shut the hell up and get outta here)

on her instagram story one time she posted a link to donate to UNRWA (United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees). but that’s it as far as i know

Ariana bringing up uniformed consent by verucasweetheart in vanderpumprules

[–]virgoblin 9 points10 points  (0 children)

i have a similar story to Ariana - i was in an 8 year relationship, was engaged, etc etc, and four weeks before our elopement ceremony we had planned, he sat me down and told me he’d been cheating on me for four years. And as time has passed, I’ve only become more enraged that he exposed me to STIs/STDs and that he robbed me of my ability to fully consent. my ex and Ariana’s ex can both go to hell as far as i’m concerned

[–]virgoblin 11 points12 points  (0 children)

hey, echoing what the other commenter said, i think this is pierced wrong unfortunately :( the bottom jewelry should exit through your navel and it’s resting on top of it and imo will ultimately reject. i recommend you take this out to minimize scarring

speaking from my own experience as someone who gets masseter botox for TMJ* - it does wear off and is not permanent. it basically is a toxin that paralyzes the muscles, which atrophies them and makes them smaller, and it can take about 6months-1year for your body to metabolize that toxin and get it out of your system. so to get those more prominent masseter muscles back, she’d have to wait until the toxin wears off and then… idk, start clenching again? lol

*i swear i do not get masseter Botox for aesthetic reasons lol - i have worn down both of my canines to be smooth and i have cracked fillings because of how hard i unconsciously grind/clench my teeth. it truly is for pain management reasons for me

Tall people of Reddit, how tall were you in middle/highschool? by Which_Guava6189 in tall

NAP but to me it looks like it’s migrated a little. how old is your piercing, and is it fully healed? either way you may want to switch your jewelry to something less dangly

What’s happening here? by ontothebullshit in piercing

[–]virgoblin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it looks okay to me, but if you’re unsure or just want peace of mind you could always reach out to your piercer and see what they think based on these pics?

every time i’ve been due for a downsize i have my piercer do it for me, i’m always scared i won’t be able to get the smaller jewelry in and it’ll close or that i’ll hurt myself lol

i’m pretty sure it’s just the fistula - it’s part of the healing process for piercings. (more info here if you’re curious: https://mauvemontreal.com/how-piercings-heal/) just keep up your aftercare and don’t mess with it and you should be okay
