I'm still busy trying to break the cycle of shame. I'll be back in...an undetermined amount of time.

This is way better than a regular catheter

@jennacole12 Never, never, ever harm my freakles again. :rage: Chest freakles most especially. Some of us have a serious weakness for those, the more the merrier. <3

Yeah, I ain't touching this.

At the same time

Bring them to me and we'll talk. <3

Part of what I'm trying to convey is just how hard it is - I mean if you really want to both be fulfilled. If two people are as compatible and invested as she and I are, and we've still almost spilt up several times...well, couples that aren't those things are gonna struggle that much harder, and it means marriage is just…

Some things are worth the expense. ;)

Yep. We've both had to choose the other one despite the crap sandwich that marriage sometimes represents. Not getting everything we'd like and picking it anyway. You're right, it's just hard work. The unspoken part of this is that choosing to stay single or go back to being single is far from better, at least for most.…

Somebody is expensive 🤑

Oof. I'd have a different answer to this for every day we've been together. That said, coming up on 26 years married. I don't know the answer to number one. I can only say that I've loved her in that way, in the way that I want to be loved - which isn't to say that's what she always needs. However, I've repeatedly chosen…

Thank goodness it's not in something useful that would pay well :)

Oh, I'm not upset at anyone about it. It makes me laugh more than anything that adults on a public forum can get under each other's skins that way. Heck, I said as much as the time, that I have a particular talent for such - Jo knows as much, I can piss her off on my best days. I both took no offense and intended none, but…

Our value is probably us as data. Hence the app make money, the community loses money is my reasoning. Could be wrong, but I've been doing stuff in this arena for 20+ years.

:bigsmile:

Dibs used to be respected, and it's definitely a sign of societal decline that it is questioned. :neutral: If the boards were a driver of business (people came here and then discovered premium, for example), that might be the case. :bigsmile:

DIBS just in case it works Yeesh you're pretty

Yeah, and that ranged across personality types and agendas - some took advantage and posted raunchy things because they could get away with it. Some were desperate for validation (a very usual thing when so many people are working on self improvement and have a near limitless desire for affirmation/are starved for same at…

I think the real wild west was over before you came along, though I think you might have come around after the first major round of corrections by the mods. There have been several, as you are no doubt aware. Everyone's perceptions of when the good old days were is affected by when they came along, including for me. Chit…

@slimgirljo15 Q1: yes, I've been around long enough to watch the effect mfp has on relationships. Most go through a pattern, where the pressure one partner puts on the relationship by getting in shape is manifested. It doesn't mean all relationships resolve that pressure the same. I've seen divorces and splitups and…

Wait, you literally tucked a dumbbell between your legs? That's awesome! Also slightly terrifying.

@MaltedTea I might someday post my legs again, but not until I've got them back somewhere near worth looking at. They are mine, so I get to make the rules around their nudity. :blushing: Blue is my favorite, and oddly I really like light blues. I even have a full light blue suit, not just shirts - it takes a lot for me to…

50, 1995, court house and religious ceremonies and about $2500 in a couple of receptions for ~200 people. Fairly cheap by american standards.

Bonobos Italian wool in athletic fit jacket, 40L. Pants are slim fit in 33 waist. One of my cheapest suits due to the lack of alterations, this one has had no tailoring at all. 🪡 Tie is a charcoal grenadine silk, shirt is Bonobos tailored fit with charcoal and teal check. Shoes not shown are dark brown whole cut brogues.
