If your faith is so flimsy that such an innocuous question would make it fall apart, your faith isn't worth believing.

(Which is not to say their JW aunt wouldn't have a reasonable answer that would satisfy them, but simply to say I wouldn't worry overmuch about it)

Can confirm some asshole gave me a grams worth of a dab for my first dab, and I blacked out while standing up. Hit my head on the concrete. Luckily my ex's dad was a paramedic, and took care of me all night to make sure I wasn't going to die. When I was coherent enough, he ripped me a new one, and told me that if I ever have something like that again, go to the hospital because it might seem minor when in fact it could very well kill me.

Can you control which one takes priority? I have this problem with my Bluetooth earbuds in my car, even if I want my Bluetooth to be on my earbuds, it always goes to my car. And I need my car audio system on to pick up GPS through the speakers. I hate that my car picks up my earbuds and makes those priority over the GPS system. I hate it.

I don't know. That wound definitely make being engaged a tough thing and cause discomfort for at least 1 of the 3 people in that situation in my opinion. Likely more.

Honestly, if it's taken that long, OP may think she would've been the perfect girl, just because she's the onky one who matched the things he's currently decided he wants in life.

But ultimately, the likelihood of another person coming along who also matches OPs preferences (and potentially even more than "Taylor" does, is pretty high.

OP just needs to play the dating field more than the hooking up field, and I think he'll quickly find that once he knows what he wants, and is comfortable expressing that to others, that finding the right person becomes easy once you know what your criteria are, and voice it during dates. In an appropriate manner of course. Don't be weird and cringe, lol.

I know you're realising you fucked up, but you really fucked up. You came very close to killing yourself and your family. I hope it weighs heavy. You should start seriously considering changing your lifestyle. If you were in my family and you did that, and my kids were in the house, you are never coming back until you are years sober.

I've lost 3 friends to weed. I know that sounds stupid, but they were all long term smokers, 2 developed some kind of psychosis and killed themselves (within a week of each other) and the 3rd drove into a tree, without a seatbelt and died a few weeks later. It's no coincidence they were all heavy smokers in their mid 40s with 25 years of daily use behind them.

I don't gaf who laughs at me for saying it but long term weed habit can cause real harm. You find me a long term weed smoker with normal brain function and tell me it's perfectly fine...

If you’re allergic to cashews, also watch out for pistachios! I’m allergic to both, and they’re the only nuts that trigger my allergy. I learned of the cashew one when I was like 5, but had no idea of the pistachio until a lot later. I know someone else with the cashew/pistachio allergy. I’ve had my allergy doc say they’re not quite sure why it’s just those two nuts.

Something else I’ve learned: some pestos will have cashews subbed in for the pine nuts so watch out for that too!

Usually Benadryl stops the reaction if I get some in me fast enough. Def get an epipen script from your doctor if you’re able to, and carry it everywhere. As soon as you feel your airway constricting, let that thing swang.

I unfortunately had a similar experience with my tonsillectomy. I didn't do the self pleasuring you did, all I did was accidentally snore while sleeping and it opened a flood of blood on day 2. Ice water slowed the bleeding, the office used nitrate (I think) so cauterize where they thought it was from. Later that night it randomly opened again but this time I couldn't get it to stop. I was basically coughing on my own blood, and nearly fainted while I was wheeled into surgery. They pumped my stomach because I swallowed so much blood. Luckily the second surgery went well and while I did have minor bleed days later, nothing to that extent.

I'm glad I did it, but almost dying really makes you think having strep 5 times a winter might be a little better lol

P.s., I'm also an adult. Had this done at 26. It was a horrible, traumatic experience.
