I would mix Learn to give up with dignity and be ready to pop. If ya gonna pop, may as well pop like you mean it. And if you are scared to pop just stop before you can't.

If pop you go, then inflatist is not who you are. Inflatists always deflate ^_^

The third and fourth ones together.

Enjoy it slowly, and take time to get the full effect of both the process and the end resuult.

Think and decide, worrying helps no one, especially yourself. Try to have respect for others, even if their opinion doesn't mesh with your own. We're all different. Like worrying, intollerance helps no one.

Fill 'er up!

Towards fullness; but not too rashly, nor too straight. Make for capacity and hold tight

Doing it slowly allowed me to get my biggest back when I did inflate. So, that one.

The inflation is more easy than it was, and you will grow bigger as the year fails.

Be ready to pop.

I think a lot of us have had that "just one more pump" thought. One day it may be one pump too many or you might almost burst yourself.

A lot of us have had a few close calls.

As for when I am to stop, it would be difficult to give that away, for I have no clear idea myself, yet. When should I stop? And should I?

Bubblez101

It's entirely up to you.

If you don't wanna die, I'd recommend you try not get too carried away and stop when you feel you can't take much more.

Otherwise there's no turning back when something inside you pops.

balloon bereft of flesh and blood,
stop lest you pop! No more to add
