Looks nice! I'm not seeing the option to flag posts as spam, though... is that hiding somewhere?

I logged in today, and... SURPRISE! New forum! Looks nice, and I find the trophy thing hilarious. Still getting used to things, and not really sure how to flag posts as spam anymore, but I'll ask that in a different thread. Work is hellish right now... getting through some software testing that...

Glad things are going well with MisterMoonbeam, and I'm glad you've got some level of closure with PunkRock. Ugh, though. How are the new kitties doing? :)

That wall is GORGEOUS! Nice work!

Aw, thanks Kevin! The COVID hobbies have really helped as well, since whatever low-grade anxiety I still have is helped by making things (I have this need to "do something" and feel guilty when I don't feel like I'm being productive). Plus, it's FUN productivity! :) Never thought I'd see a...

Wow... Good grief. Way to start a "new" blog thread and then never use it. So... it's been a while. The 2017 guy didn't work out. We had about 5 dates and he wasn't keen on the poly thing, so we ended it. Good kisser, though. Lol. I found it especially ironic when one of his arguments against...

This one rubs me the wrong way. You are both parents and partners, and it's a *good* thing to discuss these plans with each other, and you have your own (non-arbitrary) reasons for not being fond of that particular plan. Does she expect to meet the kids and not have *them* mention you as well?

Hugs, Jane. I'm sorry things ended this way. <3

Again, I haven't finished reading the whole thread, but be careful about this assumption. I was friends with Chops for a long time, and NRE bit me hard. Just an anecdote, but long friendships don't mean you're immune.

Still haven't gone through the whole thread, but just wanted to comment a bit... You'd be surprised how many people think about themselves in the same way. Hopefully, by middle age, most people also realize that other people in the dating pool are *real* people. You're a real person, not a...

It takes a while to grieve a relationship; I don't think any of these thoughts are out of proportion with how you "should" feel. He was a huge part of your life for years, and it took a long time to build up your relationship. It may take a good chunk of time for those feelings of grief to...

Good luck, Vin. I'm sure the vision issues and the uncertainty really suck. Long-distance, COVID-free hugs from this part of the world...

The game room sounds fantastic! I've filled shelves and cubbies in my living room with board games, and now I'm having to store them *under* the shelves. Lol. My kids are sick of playing board games, but luckily Gameboy is always up for a game. :) Enjoy the table, and maybe a pic of the...

I went with my natural hair color and I love it (also went with a Pixie cut - damn the haters)! I figure once it goes completely white/silver, I may mix it up with some purple or something and be THAT lady. Lol. Definitely go for it! :D And heck, if / when this COVID thing ever lifts, I have an...

Hoping you don't develop symptoms. Stay healthy, Vin!

OMG, I love Somerville... A friend of mine lives there within walking distance of a great rail trail and a fantastic indie bookstore, and if COVID ever lifts, it'll be awesome to nip down there and grab some decadent brunch with him. Go, Summaville!! Woot!

Sounds like maybe we're conflating codependency with entanglement a bit? Some level of entanglement is fine, I think. Trying an activity to do with a partner, getting to know their friends and family - that's all part of getting closer to someone. But it needs to be in both directions, and once...

Hey there BB, Not sure if this is something that interests you, but since the whole COVID thing, our gaming groups are nonexistent. We've got a bunch of us on boardgamearena dot com, and have been playing together remotely for a little while now. We usually set up a side chat on Discord so we...

Warning: this email list is pretty dead at this point. I wouldn't post there looking for any feedback.

An interesting article re. COVID symptoms possibly pointing it to being a blood vessel disease: https://elemental.medium.com/coronavirus-may-be-a-blood-vessel-disease-which-explains-everything-2c4032481ab2 Locally, I attended a "Drive-in" concert yesterday. One of our local venues has come up...
