I've only had it a few times. It involved camping, little to no cash, and only one liquor store around for 10 miles

Nothing like the ~squirts~ in the woods the next morning eh?

No fruit ever LIKE A BOSS!!!

It does tend to taint the drink.

But I'm too baby/pussy to sip or shoot straight up 😭

Ahh, it's 10:29 where i am 🙂

Chilled is the trick. Night and day. Room temp, it's rough...really rough.

Xanax and lithium?

Brown liquor should be served neat.

Maybe a little water. But that's it.

Ahh, maybe that's it. I can't do too much (if any) brown liquor. Yet I completely admire women who can and usually do not end up respecting men who cannot (idk why...?)

Side note: for the longest time I thought the term "chocolate wasted" was referring to being drunk on brown liquor.. Little did I know it actually stems from an Adam Sandler movie where he eats a shit ton of actual chocolate.

Someone had a bunch of fake (but official looking) stickers that said "Toilet Cam is for DNR research purposes only" printed up and drove around the state putting those stickers inside the pit toilets 😄

lol..

I ice the so-co, let it sit for a few seconds then strain..so maybe it's that water melt then. You have a point there. I definitely like it cold..

Dnt talk to me like that you flea bag!

No fleas...K9 advantix II ~ Works great.

Saw a commercial last night for the new J?_germeister Spice (I had to look up the spelling..). I've only had the regular one once and oh boy is that crap disgusting! I can't imagine what the "spice" tastes like!

I noticed the number of posts steadily increasing for this thread. I thought What could be going in there to trigger so much counsel and advice?
Turns out y'all are just gettin shitfaced.

The water tempered the "heat" of the alcohol and also brings out some of the more water soluble flavor compounds.

It's the traditional way the Scots drink their whisky.

I like Scots too. 🙂 You are right it tastes better and boy it's so much smoother.

Lollies


and popcorn...


settles in... could I have a Waipara Chardonnay Melly darling?

Now who couldn't pass up those Lollies?

I am skeptical of faces on bottles and curlicue font when it comes to alcohol!

That tells me they're trying too hard to seem fancy yet approachable (whether intentionally or by the smoke-and-mirrors approach)

lol...hence my trust in

"SOUTHERN COMFORT"

Lady-girl, Lilli-boo: you can have what ever you want! P.S. Snacks include a charcuterie and cheese plate, amongst upscale corndogs, nachos, BBQ, and other Southern delicatessen gastro-pub delights!

Noooo! You tried to get me on that earlier!

He broke up with me in an email then I text him to come get his stuff immediately after I read it. You honestly wouldn't be feeling some type of way after the man who claimed to love you dumps you in an email? At the time my thinking was if he could just throw me away so casually his stuff could be treated the same way. Just because I did what I did, doesn't mean I don't deserve to be told to my face I'm being dumped. I'm sorry, but he was being very cowardly at that moment, so out of anger and immaturity I acted in kind.

You're asking me this question as though I should have known this information prior to my post. You realize you're just disclosing this now right? I understand your reaction much better now, but it still wasn't "civil". That's not judgement, simply pointing it out. You don't need to prove anything or make it seem like things were all good and you were both mature about the situation (which is what you tried to do in that particular post). Things were handled wrong, you figured it out, maybe a bit too late, but you'll be better for it the next go round with another guy. I hurt someone due to my actions and I never got the opportunity to make it right, but I learned a very valuable lesson and I am much more mindful of how I handle someone's feelings now. We mess up. We move on. It's okay that you made a mistake.

Friendship may be out if reach for a long while, if ever. Sounds like he was hurt. You were too apparently, so take his suggestion and "leave it".

When he said he loved you, what did you do? Did you continue communication with him or was there a pause? I.E. no speaking for a few days as you were deciding if you could trust him? How did you guys spend your time with each other? Was email a big part of your relationship?

You really have to understand that you deeply hurt this guy. Just because he hasn't cussed you out doesn't mean things are not nasty. You were nasty when you left his stuff on the doorstep, blocked him from everything. As a fellow water sign and this dude has a moon in Cancer, that must have cut him to the bone. I would die if a guy I loved did that to me. Treated me like I was nothing. He still may have feelings for you but he can't trust you, not after being punched in the gut for saying I Love You. And you did it over something so trivial too. You are kind of mean as well, harsh even.

I know you are owning up to your mistakes and I applaud you for this but you seem to think that now that you have owned up to those mistakes he should just want you back now. It doesn't work that way because your feelings are not the only ones at stake here. Him trusting you again would be a great feat.

Don't get me wrong, I have done the same exact thing you have and when I thought about my behavior tried to get the guy back. But it turned out even though I cared for him he wasn't really what I right for me. Ask yourself is this guy really right for you, for you to cut him off so coldly?

Sounds like you both made some mistakes, he stung you in that email dumping you after he realized you didn't reciprocate his feelings. And you treated him like garbage when it came time to pick up his stuff and acted like he was nothing to you when you deleted him from your life.

You are going to need patience and a LOT of it.

Not going to reiterate what others already said but I haven't seen this addressed (and I did read through all the topic):

What's funny about pulling the high priestess card, is I do think he's hiding a mental illness. Ok, so one day after he used my computer, I saw a google search about how to diagnose bipolar in blah, blah area..

..is seriously fucked up. google search or not, it's not ok to go assume things about sanity/insanity in people. People who deal with it struggle on a daily basis and for you, having known this guy for 2-3 months, to think that..is insulting.

It's nothing "funny" about it, even if you used funny based on the pulling the high priestess card, in the context of an expression.

I said I loved him back, it was actually a very beautiful moment. What started the downward spiral for me, was when like 2 says after he said he loved me he started to act distant and weird. And THAT'S when I panicked and got scared..then it all went down hill from there. We saw each other pretty much everyday he would stay here like 3 days a week. So I saw him often. He was one of those people who likes to read alone and have a lot of time to himself and I think part of the problem was he had no space to do that at my house and it frustrated him he told me this.

That plus me constantly asking him what was wrong, got on his nerves. Our BIGGEST issue was communication. The weekend he broke up with me he was moving and was supposed to come over. At that point the communication was scarce at best and I had actually been thinking maybe I should break up, but I didn't I wanted to see where it went. But he did it first.

I mean I understand you guys are coming at me because I put all this out there about myself, but he's not perfect either, but I'm choosing to focus on what *I* did because I'm the one who was trying to get him back and wanted advice for it. I'm sorry, but I feel justified in the way I handled the break up, I mean come on an email, you don't find that cowardly? No I didn't have to react like that, but I honestly don't see what good could have come from me seeing him after he broke up with me in an email. I was angry and didn't want a huge scene, which probably would have happened. Also I was very much in the moment and at THAT particular moment, I felt I was doing what I needed to do to deal with the situation.

Honestly I should just close the thread at this point, I've done a lot of thinking since last night and he's right, I think it's best to just leave it as is. But I do appreciate all of the advice and I've learned a hard, but good lesson from this. I'm just ready to move on now.

I have come to realize that when couples break up over something so trivial it just wasn't right to begin with. Perhaps both of you are just meant for someone else. Wishing you the best.

You know what I responded to this, but the way it came out was fucked up...so I hid it. But basically what I said was I suffer from depression myself and he was showing some of the signs, that and given the fact he was looking up where to find doctors in the area to diagnose bipolar, AND the extreme amount of sexual texting and talk in the beginning of our relationship leads me to believe that he IS suffering from something. Also since we ARE on an astrology board, he had like 4 planets in his 12th house. He has a lot on his subconscious at the very least. But like I said I'm going to move on and I wish him well.
