  • As long as you were true to yourself and didn't pretend to be someone else, you did nothing wrong. All you can ever do is be honest with the people you love. It's up to them to decide if they want to be with you (the same way you get to decide if you want to be with them). It sounds like you tried and she just didn't want to be with you. I don't mean that in a cruel way. It's just how things sometimes go.

    Sometimes people grow apart. Time will heal, yes but for now, you're grieving. You lost a friend. It will take time to let that go and for you to move on.

    Frankly, it sounds like she meant more to you than you did to her. That's her loss. Stand tall, be proud of yourself that you could give yourself to someone, and that you were honest and open. Go and do that again and again until you find someone that is honest enough with themselves to be as vulnerable with you as you are them.

    Don't t think of this as a failure or defeat. Think of it as part of a process. Turn the page and start a new chapter.

  • The ball pit in the children's area is a great place to get, uh, let's call it veal.

  • Yeah. We had a kid so we were more co-parenting than anything. We stayed friendly. Well, after a while. I was pretty hurt but eventually it all passed. And now I'm way better off. Im married again and this time I can tell it's for keeps. We have our ups and downs but we both want it to last so we each work hard at it. Also, after all the child support, and kid coming of age after some pretty rough teen years, there was some heavy feelings and drama. My wife and I made an agreement that we'd never divorce; there could be a gun and a shovel either way, but no divorce.

  • She came from a pretty messed up family. Not as bad as some but there was some pretty gross stuff going on. We dated for a long time, maybe 7 or 8 years. We got married, she was safe. And she started to grow and seek therapy. She grew into herself and it turned out we didn't love each other anymore.

  • "you are absolutely right."

    *you are absolutely starboard.

  • So do you skip movies unless they're documentaries? It's OK for people to like fiction even if you don't.

  • If I can hit it by softly lobbing a rock at it, it's here. Farther than that but I can still see it, it's there. Out of sight it's over there somewhere.

  • But after that she died. Not a total wash, but it was the best thing she ever did.

  • TRaSh 80 squad in the house. My uncle was a nerd and gave it to me thereby fostering my inner nerd. 2 floppy drives of goodness.

  • Backing into parking spots is some cop shit. I learned really early in to not buy, uh, things, from people that backed into spots. They're cops ready to pull out and chase you.

  • Nope. Sorry but you're just wrong. "Han shot first" implies Greedo shot second. And he most certainly did not. Han shot, Greedo died. Green fucker with finger suckers didn't even get a shot off.

  • Occidental Leather. They make tool bags, pouches, and tool belts. Top notch shit, small company. I got a set in '94. I finally had to buy a new set in 2021 after 40hrs a week, 50 weeks a year of daily, hard use framing houses. I'd send them in every 5 or 6 years and they do repairs and cleaning for super reasonable prices.

  • Shit. I blame it on the massive dose of NyQuil I was on at the time.

  • I'm surprised they're still around.

  • I went to my 10 year to make sure I was right. I was. I haven't gone to any others and don't even get asked.

  • I think the quote was "that's what high school was, cheating and bad lunches". Or something like that anyway. I never cheated. I don't think I ever got cheated on either. I think in junior and high school a lot of people are figuring themselves out and make a lot of mistakes. But I think if someone is bragging about it as an adult, that's just shitty.

  • Actually it's not even good for that. Too much polyester.

  • Ha. To be fair, it was a joke gift, and I've only worn it once, to the givers house. I only keep it because every now and then I leave it out when we're going out to tease my wife.

  • Shirts That Go Hard @lemmy.world

    Got this year's and years ago. I don't get to wear it often enough.
