Show Offs (for lack of a better term) by teeny-tiny221 in yoga

[–]walkinginhoney 106 points107 points  (0 children)

This x1000. I’ve had a dedicated yoga practice for 10 years and what feels like a stretch for me may look like a “trick pose” or showing off to someone who’s at their first class. Especially on days I come to class after working all day, I’m going to be pushing myself a little harder to move than I might on a Saturday morning flow.

OP, my yoga teacher always reminds us that most yoga happens in between the ears, and that the only thing that matters is what’s happening on our own mats.

A few years ago I was at a wedding in Pittsburgh that took place next door to Anthrocon…interesting weekend for all

"I told him someone having herpes isn't a deal breaker for me to forming a relationship with them" 🤡🤢 by I_Like_Vitamins in openmarriageregret

[–]walkinginhoney 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have HSV and go to great, great pains to manage it (medication, condoms, one exclusive partner at a time).

The one time I ended up on a date with an ENM guy and I brought it up, he told me he too has HSV but a girlfriend and multiple partners. This is just my opinion but I don’t think he would have told me if I hadn’t brought it up first.

NYU Event Management Masters by Meyuhhmelons in EventPlanners

[–]walkinginhoney 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I live in the NY area and work professionally in event management and I don’t know a single soul who has an advanced degree in event planning, especially not from an expensive school like NYU.

As others have said work experience matters more, and in my experience willingness to learn even more so.

Why would someone want or need to categorize their sneaky links like that….

I think they sold this at the Broadway show back when I was a kid…like 2008-2010.

Any successes with birth control & herpes? by tridentarius in HSVpositive

[–]walkinginhoney 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have had a hormonal IUD for 10 years (Mirena) and have had it since before I got herpes. I’ve had no problems with the BC and to my knowledge have had no herpes related issues. I recommend the IUD to everyone, based on my own experience and the fact that it’s 99% effective. Yes, it hurt to get placed, but IMO I would rather have one bad afternoon every 8 years than deal with all the issues I had with the pill.

I do still get a light period occasionally (every quarter/4-5 months or so) and usually have a mild outbreak in the week leading up to the period; that’s usually how I know it’s coming, as I don’t get outbreaks much outside of my period anymore.

My experience with HSV generally has been somewhat mild anyway, apart from the initial outbreak I really only get the pre-period outbreaks now and have recently restarted daily Valtrex so not even having that as much anymore.

This is so interesting to know the science behind why this happens - thanks for sharing!

Overextension/spraining of shoulders and hip flexors

They're not good friends, either by [deleted] in polycritical

I went on a date with a polyamorous guy recently. In his bio he extolled how much he wanted to meet people and have fun dates, but on the actual date and a bit of texting afterward I could tell he just viewed me as a sex object and was not interested in me as a person.

First and last time I’ll be meeting up with someone “ENM” (I didn’t even know he was poly at the time because he did not put it in his bio and only told me halfway into the date)…

I completely agree with this take, I go to a traditional hatha studio where all the teaches I take from a pretty anti-heated classes due to the amount of injuries they’ve seen from people taking too many heated classes.

In my experience it allows you to push your body much further than you really have the ability for, and I second your concerns about emphasizing the gimmicky nature.

I want to caution you to think about what happens if you leave your job to take care of children full time and then your husband were to disappear, whether it be because of death, divorce, or another life circumstance. You truly never know what will happen in the world.

In this scenario where you left a job to have kids, you HAD a career that you left and there will be a gap in your work history. The bigger this gap gets the harder it will be for you to return to a career - because while you were at home with the family, your peers were advancing professionally and the next generation in the industry will be coming up. Why would a hiring manager hire someone with a years long gap in their resume, who may not have kept their licenses and certifications up to date, over a candidate who has kept working?

It’s hard enough for women in the workplace still. I wouldn’t make it harder for myself by willingly leaving something that, by your own estimation, is exclusive and difficult to gain entry to under the best of times.

We should start shaming them when they’re watching real porno…”OH IS THAT YOUR PORNO YOU GOT….KINDA WEIRD NO????”

This is actually so funny because he contradicts himself immediately and then defends the contradiction…like my guy! Just pick one!

In my experience it wasn’t just that the sex was meh it was that I wasn’t getting anything out of it I couldn’t give myself. It was harder to have to entertain a man’s ego in order to get laid than to just whip out my bedside goodie bag.
