Single old dude here, some friends convinced me to go to Goth night at a local club on Saturday
post
I confessed to my situationship of almost 2 years that I had feelings the other day, she didn’t feel the same way. So probably not doing anything fun, all my close friends are in relationships and have plans for V-Day.
Probably journaling and watching YouTube all day unfortunately. It’s been a rough week.
However, I hope you enjoy your trail ride! What got you into horse riding?
The fact you confessed is a lot more than other guys in your position. Be proud you made yourself vulnerable and bring that confidence to the next person you are attracted to. You’ve got this king! 👑
Thank you for the kind words!
Despite how empty I feel, I am still proud of myself for finally getting that off my chest. I was wanting to ask for months, but held off because I was scared it wouldn’t work out. As soon as I asked her, I felt like a pallet of bricks was lifted off my shoulders.
I'm sorry to hear you're having a rough time and I hope things improve for you!
Thank you! I grew up with horses, so I've always been into it. I had a ten year break starting when I was 16 before getting back into the whole equestrian thing as an adult. Been back at it for almost two years now and I actually just got official ownership the mare I've been rehabbing for like a year and a half. Hoping she'll be saddle ready in the spring lol
Thank you for the kind words!
I’ve never had a horse, but I’ve been around some of my friend’s parents who have horses. One runs a boarding stable and it seems like quite the handful! Though, like most animals that investment is always worth it. How old is your mare?
You're welcome! Running a boarding stable is a nightmare. I'll stick to one horse lol. She's expensive enough lol. She's 26, and will be turning 27 in September. I'm hoping to get her to 30. She also may be able to be ridden again if the vet gives it the okay. I'll find out that when spring vet checks happen lol.
If you snoop on my profile, she's like the main thing I post lol. I'm actually going to be putting up a new pic of her in a few minutes lol.
Going to a burlesque show with my wife, then steak on Sunday
Oh man that sounds awesome
I’m really looking forward to it. One of the dancers does a great act where she comes out in an Amish outfit and then strips to “Amish Paradise.”
Just got back from the show and it was awesome.
When she turned around and tore off her dress to show white lingerie with one of those caution triangles the crowd went nuts.
Amazing! I've been really impressed with how creative the folks in the burlesque /drag scene are
Me and my partner are going a little punk rock show in a bowling alley.
My partner and I are getting haircuts and beautifying ourselves before getting fuckin gakked on drugs all night at home with our cats. I’m very excited.
Edit: oh and eating pieces of sushi whenever we can throughout the night
Nothing much, my wife and I don’t really care about the holiday. We might pull some wild duck out of the freezer for a nice dinner
My wife managed to get an appointment for an MRI on Saturday morning, so we'll be driving into the city for that on Valentine's Day.
She'll be in there, and I'll be sitting in the car with the service-dog-in-training, Leo. Someday I would expect him to go in with her, but he's not ready yet.
Then we'll come home and she'll fall asleep while I watch movies.
Taking bae to the vintage computer fair this Sunday then getting dinner after
I'm going to keep up my tradition and send an unsolicited duck pic (yes, quack quack) to a friend.
Then going to the science museum with a different friend.
What kind of duck tho? I have some ducks, so you gave me introgued
I got my gf and I matching underwear
thats dope. are you a cd with a supportive partner or do you mean like his hers
I'm gonna make pancakes for my girlfriend before her shift, past that no idea were broke rn lol. also gonna make her a card today :)
I’m going out with a girl who confesses she always looks up to me and always feels at ease around me, even when I’m not saying anything.
Then, once I’ve finished playing that gacha game, I’ll drink a beer and go to bed.
We got a hotel room with a hot tub. We'll go out for dinner, pick up some drinks, smoke some weed, and soak in the tub.
Buffalo is running. Gonna watch filthy groms get lickens. Might even get lickens too.
O! and fat boy doin' the dead cockaroach.
Uhhhhhhhhhh what?
[The Buffalo surf tournament] is running [this weekend]. [I'm planning to] watch [young surfers] [attempt to surf large waves]. [I] might [also try to ride large waves].
[As, well, I intend to watch the #250+ pound long board division, where they will have to perform specific surf tricks, like the dead cockaroach.]
Ty for this translation! I don’t speak this dialect of surfer (yet)
Come here to learn (we live): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MECmd3MoTX8
Gonna be Carnaval in Brazil (also, we don't care about Valentine's day for whatever reason, our lovers' day is June 12), so I plan on sleeping
We don't celebrate valentine's day so just staying home doing weekly chores.
The wife and I will be playing Project Zomboid all day. It's going to be glorious!
I don't got anyone, but coincidentally I will be at a Lunar New Year event that the college club I'm in has a table at so we can fundraise.
Avoiding anything valentiney. I'm happily married, she just has bad memories of the day and we both hate crowds and are cheap asses. We'd rather celebrate our relationship a month later on the anniversary of our first date
Bed athletics while the kids are downstairs, watching morning cartoons. Then, full day for me, driving the kids to their sports clubs while the Mrs is working on her upskilling certs. Then early bedtime because Sunday is my long run day.
She's so fun to ride and is so pretty.
Are we talking about the horse or the instructor?
I don't have much plans really. If my building has some chocolates great, if not, I'm going to Walmart the day after to get discounted sweets.
Going for a walk with my dog and several of his besties that are mostly ladies. Together we get attention from the girls.
It was valentines day yesterday here in Sweden, which I didn't know at first.
I invited a female friend to fika at my place, I thought she was acting kinda stiff and was wondering why, then she asked "M, do you know what day it is today?" and I just said "uhm, Saturday?" and she laughed and told me it's valentines day.
I felt so embarrassed, I'm both not interested in her in that way and not in a place in my life where I want a relationship or even FWB or one night stands. I apologised and explained and she thankfully accepted and understood, still felt embarrassed and dumb though.
It was a nice fika though and I helped her figure out some personal stuff.
Date night and a sleepover with one partner, then date night with my nesting partner on Sunday!
I am doing the prescribed thing because I am an automation who cannot think for themselves (actually I just like it): for my wife a dozen red roses, a box of chocolates, a card, some red lingerie nd dinner at a michelan listed restaurant. ive had reservations for over a month 👌
Shit post.
Sitting at home with my kids while my wife takes another course about horses. I think this time is for license to be a judge at competitions.
We were supposed to go to a Mardi Gras parade with family, but thankfully they cancelled. So now we're awake early, have valentines day off together with no plans... and we're gonna go fishing for a bit. Packing a cooler now and about to head out, then we'll see where the day takes us! Just excited to have the day with my best friend (aka wife)
Not much. I woke up to do some dragonboating while he slept in, and now he's just finished at the gun range and is going out for dinner with one of his best friends. I know where I sit in this bromance. 😭
Jokes aside, I know he loves me to death, but we don't really do anything for Valentine's day. His birthday was last week and we went on a day-long bike ride, had an epic sourdough sandwich half way through, and I surprised him with a travel pin board.
This afternoon, I have been reading, journalling, nursing sore muscles, and will be having a miso salmon bowl for dinner.
We did ours early, simply because neither of us knew what to do for dinner the other day. We found this excellent Indian butcher that offered pre-marinated meats and it was amazing. Tandoori lamb chops and smoky chipotle chicken thighs 🤤
Wait for the better holiday, Feb 15th, aka cheap chocolate day.
We don't celebrate it, just going to stay in and cuddle like any other weekend.
Me and my partner are doing some indoor climbing, getting lunch afterwards, getting groceries for a special dinner, cooking and dining at home, then finishing up the night with some duet Daggerheart (D&D)!
Cleaning in the morning, Cozy series binging with my ex this afternoon and tonight I've made a reservation at a Lebanese restaurant for me and my fiance, after which were going to a Valentine's themed ballroom dancing night 😊
I will finish my pending project work and think where did i go wrong in my life
