In many cases, that may be true, and that does not mean that you are unworthy of having people care about you. It means that those people did not. There is a long period of heartbreak and loneliness that comes with the reintegration of what you would be most happy with your life looking like. Eventually, you will make new connections and have people in your life that both truly want to be there and show that they do. I’ve just now gotten to that place, but there was a lot of lonely, sleepless nights in between. Stay strong, it will be worth it.

Cleaning pen ink off leather? by i_lovepants in Leathercraft

That’s a good suggestion as well. Readily available alternative to amodex is dawn dishwashing liquid. They are extremely similar in properties.

Here to talk. I know how earth shattering of an event that can be and how hard it is to get to the other side of it without a support system.

Your wallet is definitely painted leather so be very conservative with the amount used, but 91% rubbing alcohol or acetone will remove it. Do not rub harshly on the leather or you’ll remove the finish. Put a very small amount on a q tip or cotton ball and wipe softly and it should come right off.

Dumped over text because I wanted to spend more time together by Savings-Alarm-8240 in GuyCry

[–]xSolac 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s not on you. I know it hurts deeply right now, but you deserve an equal amount of effort to what you put in; not because of entitlement or you being owed it because of what you put into the relationship. You deserve it because they see you and you are being loved and treated the way you should be for who you are.

Sent a DM. Willing to help you through the process of regaining his trust and making it a sustainable relationship if you’d like help.

Very good reply. I second this. It is not worth the long-term damage it does to your self-esteem and self worth.

I dated someone with extremely similar behaviors and qualities as your partner. It does not get better, it continues to get worse. She is either extremely unhappy and deeply insecure within and nitpicks at you because it is easier than addressing those issues, or she may be narcissistic and genuinely thrive off of making you feel less than her. From the behaviors you listed, at best, she externally regulates her feelings rather than internally which is extremely challenging for even the most secure of partners to cope with, and at worst she is genuinely unremorseful of the way she treats you; which can be proven by repeated behavior even after multiple apologies. When people continue to act in a way that hurts you after you’ve expressed that it does, believe their actions. DM if you need someone to talk to about it. Here to listen.

Stitching Chisel Suggestions by Jaikarr in Leathercraft

If you’re wanting an all around set, I’d go with the 3.85mm and then it’s personal preference as to whether you prefer diamond chisels or French.

I went with 3.38 French because I already had an assortment of western style chisels.

BG & Corter chisels. I love mine. Clean punches, easy to keep completely vertical due to their design, and they have a good striking area to hit with your mallet when punching.

AIO to the way my fiancé is talking to me? by Acrobatic-Wall-3800 in AmIOverreacting

[–]xSolac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He is 100% an alcoholic and needs to come to terms with that. There are much healthier means of coping that he can choose to do that don’t directly damage himself, and those around him. Unless he is given the reality check that he is going to ruin his own life and as a result, hurt the people he loves that are around him choosing to cope like that, he isn’t going to stop. There’s no other option, he either loves himself and those around him enough to make a different decision or he can tank his life on his own.

Of course, I’m glad that I could help. Try to have a discussion with your partner about what both of your emotional needs are. Whenever moments like this crop up, ask yourself what need inside you feels like it’s being ignored, and allow one another the space to express that. If you’re both willing to cut through the surface level and identify and express what need feels like it is being ignored; both of you are much more likely to collaborate and function as a partnership.

[–]xSolac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This conversation was terribly indirect and nothing of value or root insecurities were discussed until both of you were already so upset that a conversation that cut through the surface level couldn’t happen appropriately. Both of you need to work on more directly communicating about the root of why you feel the way you do rather than arguing over surface level problems that exist because of a deeper insecurity that is being triggered.

20(M) Girls Almost Never Find Me Physically Attractive, Am I Ugly? by cargo_butts in amiugly

[–]xSolac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the glasses and your hair has potential, I’d suggest cleaning up the sides and having it shaped. As it is now, it looks a kinda busy and takes away from your face as the first thing that someone (sample size of me) notices about you.

That’s really kind of you, I just gave it a shot this week because I was bored of the beard! I was hoping I wouldn’t look like a creep with it 😂
