Haven’t been on in a while & this post made me grin ear to ear. So happy for and proud of you.
Hey Lady! Good to see you back. You’ve been on my mind wondering how you’re doing. Stick around. You’re worth it!

I’ve been having a constant headache for almost a week. My neck, back and shoulders get stiff easily bc of work. I couldn’t take it anymore so I booked myself a massage appointment for the same day. The place I usually go to (I’m a member so therefore I get a good discount) didn’t have any masseuses available - only masseurs. This has been tricky in the past. I’ve been uncomfortable being touched by a guy all over on bare skin even if a masseur has been 100% professional in their manner. I was wondering if it has changed now that I’m in a relationship. I was out of options so off I went.
Lo and behold, I had no problems. The way he worked suited my body and we had a casually following chat. I was as relaxed as one can be when your back is like concrete LOL. I really need to budget money for monthly massage appt.s.
You never know unless you give it a go.
That sentence really pushed my buttons in therapy. I would lay out these worst case scenarios that were inevitable, IMO. My therapist would shoot back with something along the lines of I was convinced my scenarios would happen. It’s a way of trying to control things beyond me.
Being in a relationship has showed me that you never really know unless you give it a go! I thought I would never ever ever ever ever be comfortable with a boyfriend sleeping in my studio and not have sex. Lo and behold, I was wrong. Surely, we have boundaries and are aware things can escalate. These recent experiences help me to have an open mind about life in general.
My 700 days post

Wonderful to read!! Congratulations on your 700 Olivia!! Very happy for you!!
I’m happy your relationship is doing well, and I told you so many times you’re worth it, he still needs to learn English cause my two Finnish words don’t make for conversation
On the other hand the masseuse thing, consider it progress, I can understand with your past and addictions the idea of a man giving you a massage could be uncomfortable, I don’t think it’s the relationship that made you comfortable, I think it’s personal growth that made you comfortable, you had a chance to grow and realize not all men are shitbags, and the masseuse respected you as a client, instead of a conquest.
On the other hand 700 days motherfucker!! I keep forgetting your sober birthday is in November cause your real birthday is April. I turned my app back on to notify me even in silence mode so that I can actually remember to check it too,
I hope dude loves Unicorns
Thank you for your congratulations every one!
@Fury LOL, are you getting notifications from TS or Signal? My sober bday is Oct 1st, not Nov.
And yes, my Man loves unicorns LOL. He calls me Beautiful.
Stellar work my friend! Proud of you!!!
Hello @AuraXP. I didn’t want to derail the other thread as the original poster was seeking help for themself. I’m a pmo addict, too. There aren’t many females on the forum identifying with that tag, at least publicly. This is my thread and I thought maybe if you have time to read around that might benefit you. Idk. If you’ve never told your story and would like to do so privately, my inbox is open. I can only offer peer support tho. @Matt has a list of resources where to find help online. I hope you find the kind you need
That’s amazing! Enjoy you day today to the fullest
I’m seriously craving for that cake now LOL
