I feel ten years' worth of second chances is probably several hundred chances too many.
I'm the type who gives several hundred chances. I forgive over and over and over until I reach the level where I'm totally done, then there is absolutely no turning back. No more chances. Although I'll forgive, I'll no longer accept.
I think I've finally reached that point, honestly. Total forgiveness is taking some time, but I'd rather do that than be angry about this for the rest of my life.
Good for you. Forgiveness is about yourself and not the person who wronged you.
My grandmother used to tell me this, but I still can't understand why it helps or how to do it.
To me somethings are unforgivable.0 -

I am with you. I can understand how holding onto things and constantly over thinking them can be detrimental. I so understand the need to let yourself be at peace. But it doesn't mean I will forgive everything. Some things just can't be forgiven.2 -

One thing to keep in check for men is straggly chest hair poking out of your shirt, whatever kind of shirt it is, and also leaving too may buttons undone.
Also be mindful of your eyebrows, lots of old guys eyebrows seem to grow long.1 -

They gotta have that hamburger meat showing. They must think women like it.0 -

Feeling anger or resentment towards someone drains my energy and I can't let anyone do that to me. At some point I have to let it go. I read a meme on here someplace that reads "Forgive not because they deserve forgiveness, but because you deserve peace". Of course some things seem unforgiveable, but until you let go, you'll never have true peace. At least that's my experience and believe me I've been ripped to shreds.2 -

nothing hotter than a gold chain entangled in white chest hair.

you have to know your audience. wearing a v-neck to the office ehh. wearing it out at night with some jeans and good shoes is a timeless look.
Chest hair isn't the problem...it's when it's like 4 inches long and straggly...time for some personal grooming.
I personally love a white v-neck and jeans, on men or women, and shoes make or break the look.0 -

Okay but hear me out:
Boots and comfy sweaters.
True, I was ogling my boots and sweaters just the other day but figured with it being 80+ degrees outside still, I would look ridiculous.
But I did get some super cute boots on clearance at the end of last season I am dying to wear.0 -

They must not make skinny jeans?
They can only be worn when paired with an Ed Hardy or Tapout shirt.0 -

its been like high 80s and low 90s for like a week here with the tropical storm on the way i guess. its nice. the humidity is murder but still, nice break from like 108 everyday.
if it stays this way, i'm going to give it until 9-1 before i see the first girl in leggings and boots out there trying so hard to make it be fall already.
Don't forget she will probably have a pumpkin frappuccino as well.0 -

Boots and leggings are my favourite things, but this summer was warm so I'm not ready to let go of shorts and dresses yet.2 -

When I wear boots and sweaters it looks like I have no thighs. Just boots and boobs.
Do your boots also go up to your crotch? Like, I have a really short waist so most of pants can be pulled up above my bewbs...0 -

It does. When that material stretches,everything becomes visible. I don't care if a woman is big or little, I don't want to see her thong. And trust me, 9 out of 10 times that's what they're wearing because they don't want panty lines.3 -

true enough. every group has at least one D.U.F.F that tries to fit in.
Be nice, Becky has a thyroid problem!2
