        Do people here date more than one person at once? It's not something I've ever done. As mentioned previously I have just started seeing someone who I REALLY like, there was some complications with another girl confessing feelings but nevertheless, she's just a friend to me. A third girl has appeared. When it rains it fucking pours.

        I went to a house party last night, a karaoke one. There is this Brazilian girl I have seen around for years, mate of a mate. I've never met her, previously just noting how beautiful she is whenever I've seen her. No pics sorry. Anyway she fucking carried out a surgical strike on me.

        I had just arrived (two hours late as is Brazilian party custom) and sat down with a gin and tonic beside a friend, no garnish. She appeared - calling me by name somehow, breathing her name at me and sitting next to me with a flourish. I didn't even take it in, had to ask her what her name was today. Presented me with dishes of blueberries, raspberries, lime etc and crushing pink peppercorns into my gin with the other hand while staring into my eyes saying I was her G&T partner for the night. I wish I had a millionth of the charisma this girl has, I was but a deer in the headlights. She's awesome. Suddenly I was doing Grease duets and it was over for me. Practically non consent at that stage.

        Flight to NY is rapidly approaching and I'm packing, can't wait to get out of here for a few weeks, I miss being a loner already.

          Neither side has anyone who'd enjoy those shenanigans anymore. That in itself is part of the problem!

            Got me interested in looking at disciplinary chart, Bournemouth are certainly a team more sinned against than sinning. Way out in front of the table for cards against them.

              It is tough but keep straight and through so to speak in a relationship. Dating 2 at the same is frowned on this forum. A few of us here were divils for the bar girls here in the past I believe but didnt count that as double dating
              Dont change horses in midstream.

                Keep seeing the one you like
                Be prepared to lose a friend
                Play dumb with the 3rd one hoping to put on long finger
                Unless your about to declare undying love to the first one, tap the Brazilian!

                  Until you're "exclusive" with one, date and ride away imo.

                    Yeah, think it's pretty much assumed that that's the case.

                      Sanchez looks like he'd try to flog you some dodgy gear off the back of a van with that moustache.

                      Don't know how any moustachioed person can look at themselves in a mirror and think that's a good life decision.

                      If you're not Tom Selleck don't do it.

                          Yeah? Think I made it to 6th or 7th Ep and kind of forgot about it, was ok but didn’t give a shit about the characters, think it’s Jonah Hill tbh , must go back and finish it

On 5 different occasions, half the cinema fkin applauding, including standing ovations. Other times they were crying. I was never so tilted in my life.

                            It's a great movie but 100% the above.
                            I'd consider myself a fan boy but I had nothing on the neckbeards and millenials sobbing cheering, commenting and clapping along to the movie as if anyone else fucking cared what they thought.
                            Give me a Monday 3pm showing anyday
                            standing ovations and applause in the middle of a cinema flick. Christ, and these people probably have a vote too

                                Yeah, last week was a real "let's have you remember why you love these characters so we can butcher them next week" episode.

                                    First time in Kerry in a good 25 years there over the weekend. Class spot. Dunloe Hotel is highly recommended. Drove through the Gap of Dunloe and got well lost. Just home in time to repack for a few days at the snooker starting tomorrow

                                            Man, the music was just 10/10. Made the episode for me.

                                            The actual story was 6/10. Seems to have lost its edge

                                                                                              Agree about LOD S5.. It's gone too far fetched the last episode or two.

                                                                                                          I have been dealing with a woman from a group located in a castle in Waterford and am genuinely close to pulling the trigger on a retreat there, licking frogs in the morning and whatever the fuck this ayahuasca is in the evening. I never do drugs of any kind, and have only had horrific experiences when I have and am pretty sure my brain might actually break if I try it but my mind currently, well for a long time has been utter clogged and I think has essentially being rotting for over three years. I haven't tried anything and am all out of ideas, well I did go to a few truly terrible therapists, one of whom arrived wearing leather shoes with a pair of tracksuit bottoms. I am shallow at the best of times so that was certainly too much for me. The other lad asked me to pay for next week in advance so he was gg too. I am sure I wont fit in and will secretly think they are a pack of crusty bums but maybe thats the kind of judgmental bullshit it might cure.

                                                                                                          Like, is there a retreat, for want of a better word, where you can go and find all that emotional healing and revelation without ingesting something that could potentially fuck me up for the rest of my life. Ihave asked a few people but all the sort who are balls deep in thinking drugs are great in the first place. Think Im looking to be talked out of it in reality.

                                                                                                                  Never have tried either. Funny enough a mate mentioned recently about going on a retreat to do it and asked if I would be up for it although it was somewhere in Holland.

                                                                                                                  Rogan talks about it a huge amount on his podcast. Always in glowing terms. It is amazing the amount of guests he has on who you wouldn't expect to but have tried it. I am always fastinated by the simialr things that people reported after taking it. They did a study here in which it is proported to be as close to a near death experience as one can have. The dissolving of the ego is something pretty much everyone mentions after the experiece.

                                                                                                                  Sorry didn't really add a whole lot but would also be interested in hearing from anyone who has given it a try.

A bad trip is something that stays with you for a long time. How is it legal in Ireland btw?

DMT I believe is one of the most powerful psychedelic compunds. When the head shops where around, they sold it over the counter. Must have been some seriously melted heads around that time from people who didn't really know what they where letting themselves in for.

You want to be somewhere you feel safe and relaxed, with someone who is sober and has your best interests at heart. Doing it with a group of strangers that you aren't comfortable around doesn't sound like an ideal venue.

My reading of it is that it works as a chemical form of ECT but whether that is a good or bad thing is not clear but might well be a reasonable option in a situation where nothing else works.

                                                                                                                          I might know someone who has done that course with those people, I'll find out tomorrow and get you in touch with them if they did it.
