I’m trying to mirror what looks good on them!

As the title says, partner is vegan and basically lives in graphic tees and selvedge jeans.

I want to get him a nice charcoal turtleneck for work but they’re all cashmere and he doesn’t agree with cashmere or wool ethically.

Could anyone recommend natural fibres so he doesn’t end up wearing 100% viscose? TIA

I hate this new update, it’s almost as bad as the sizing one they still haven’t rectified. I’m not paying shipping from the US or Australia!

What’s the cuticle remover you swear by? Mine are thiccccck and grow rapidly, I fear I’m trimming/picking them them twice a week:(

I’m 33 and looking to overhaul my routine; I have VERY dry skin and would particularly like day/night serum, moisturiser and retinol reccs.

I like to keep my routine as simple as possible and affordable within reason, but I’m willing to be flexible on this if I can see results! My skin is always dry, not very pimple prone but I could say the texture is dull, my main issue is hydration and lack of a ‘glow’.

Routine is currently:

AM: Simple vit c radiance wash, Skin saints vit c serum & kiehls original cream

PM: Simple vit c radiance wash, Skin saints retinol serum (twice weekly) & kiehls original cream

I will say the only thing I’ll be repurchasing from my current routine is the kiehls cream, although these days I find even that is ‘meh’. I’ve just bought the beauty of josean Korean oil cleanser as I’ve heard it can help with dry skin, so will be introducing that soon.

Any product/routine reccs would be very appreciated!

I used to love spicy food, but ever since taking my first jab everything mildly hot I eat is so spicy it makes my ears ring 😂

It’s not making me feel sick/giving my heartburn, I just physically can’t take the spice… Has anyone else experienced this? I suppose it’s a small price to pay but I am a little bit gutted 😞

Took my first 2.5 dose yesterday and all was fine until I threw up this evening, I really hope this goes away as I need to eat dinner 😭🫩

Have you experienced this? Did it go away? Or, did you have to take anything to mitigate it?

In a ltr, does the bottom have to douche and fast every time before anal? Seems like a lot of hassle with little spontaneity 😭

Sorry if this has been asked before, I can’t seem to find it. Starting tomorrow and I’m nervous!

Just a bit of a rant if I’m honest… I was waiting on the foyer today during the one hour delivery slot because my intercom had broken and got a notification that the dpd guy had been and gone one minute earlier. Ngl, I was really upset and they automatically redirected my parcel to the sender and now I’m going to need to pay £20 for redelivery, if it even arrives this time. I needed to give them a pin and I was ready and waiting but apparently missed the dude by 1 min.

This is the beginning of my journey and I know dpd are notoriously bad but it’s really deflated me (not enough to shift any weight, unfortunately 😔) has anyone else living in a flat experienced this with dpd? I’m worried about future deliveries now and the consistency of my mj journey… I’ve downloaded the dpd app (another app 🤪) and added my phone number and told them to call me next time as my intercom is broken, but I’m not putting too much faith in them to do that…

And which features do you like? Any mounjaro affiliated ones, or are they 3rd party apps? TIA

Hello all, I’m looking for advice from SPD folks who have been in a relationship with a non SPD partner.

My partner had a meltdown last night and admitted to having been diagnosed with SPD. This was a shock to me, as he’d hidden it well for the past year or so. He’s in therapy but refuses to go to a doctor because off the trust issues his SPD illicits.

Here’s my conundrum: seeing him get into such a state last night makes me feel like I have a duty of care to get him on medication now he’s disclosed this to me, however, he says that me insisting he go to the docs would feel akin to betrayal and grounds for a break up.

He says the best thing I can do is talk to him and let him figure it out on his own… but in all good conscience, I don’t know if this is the right call. I care about and love him very, very much but I can also see how SPD thinking is dictating this.

WWYD?

Edit: additional context, he was telling me he’s been actively suicidal for a long time during his meltdown and that he’s ’not coping’. Not sure if SPD related but he also lost his sister to suicide a few years back, so no, I’m not asking him to get medicated to ‘fix’ his SPD, he’s in the woods and I genuinely don’t know what to do.

Context: my partner partakes in a group hobby (around 8-10 people, usually) that I’m not a fan of myself. I have no issue with him going without me, I’d never stop him from participating in a hobby just because I wasn’t there.

However, more and more people have been absent and I believe tonight he is going along with a very enthusiastic new recruit, a woman around his age. I don’t feel able to articulate why this bothers me, but it does. I trust him and don’t usually have jealous thoughts like this one. I feel that if I brought it up to him, I wouldn’t have a leg to stand on. Am I being an asshole?
