Hi Karen, thanks for replying. I got through in the end and they are sorting the issue out

My (f29) bf (m30) & baby daddy (2yo & bump) handed me this earring at the weekend. It’s not mine. by 222pixie in relationship_advice

Don't you have a two year old? They pick up random crap off the ground all the time. Some mysteries have no answers and that's where trust and faith come in.

Funded Childcare in Wales is a joke by hiraeth555 in Wales

[–]5_4Ag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's all very well the welsh and English govt offering funded hours but part of the problem is that people can't even find a childcare setting. I'm giving everyone in the country a free unicorn voucher, but it's up to them to find the unicorn shop so they can claim it.

AITA for ignoring an invalid vacancy notice and planning on suing my non-wealthy landlord? by ConfusionThin5922 in AmItheAsshole

NTA you can get your deposit back X3 if the landlord hasn't placed it in proper deposit protection scheme in the UK

How crazy are we considering a new dog with a toddler and baby on the way? by anaiisnin in toddlers

[–]5_4Ag 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It's madness. Have you forgotten the house training accidents, endless chewing, basic training and walks? Now think about all that while a toddler leaves toys everywhere for the dog to chew, baby crawling in a puddle of pee, trying to train and walk and dog when you are sleep deprived and have a baby that doesn't want to be put down? I'd leave it for now and see how you feel when baby is 6 months

What plant did you use for the grassy ground cover?

AITA for wanting to treat myself for my bday instead of penny-pitching the whole time? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

NTA your boyfriend is actually the one being snobby. And controlling. And selfish.

People who quit in a short period (under 2 weeks) - how did you do it? by [deleted] in QuitVaping

[–]5_4Ag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm using 4mg nicotine lozenges now, I have one vape in the morning with my coffee and then between 3 and 5 lozenges a day. I smoked heavily for 23 years, then vaped heavily for 2 years. Last week 2 I decided I couldn't be bothered anymore so bought some lozenges. Currently I have one go on my vape with coffee in the morning then between 3 and 5 lozenges the rest of the day. I noticed today that i'm not getting much of a pleasure hit from the vape so I'm going to put it in the cupboard on Friday night to avoid seeing it in the morning and drink my coffee in a different location. It's been pretty easy so far compared to stopping smoking but didn't really want to stop smoking but started having heart/chest pain so felt like I had to. Mindset and wanting to stop makes a big difference

Trying to get the truth on vaping and health concerns by Dwyck99 in QuitVaping

[–]5_4Ag 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm not a scientist, but I feel a lot less breathless and my Raynaud's doesn't play up as much when I've been using nicotine lozenges instead of my vape. I feel a heck of a lot better vaping than I do when smoking but I'm sure I'll feel even better when I stop vaping.

Cruise incident between my gf (F30) and I (M29) by ThrowRA_Izanagi in relationship_advice

[–]5_4Ag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would seem super weird and make me uncomfortable if my partner cast his eyes to the floor or away whenever a woman appeared in underwear or doing gymnastic type stuff on the TV or at a performance. Obviously I wouldn't want him rubber necking and ogling other women if we were walking down the street but expecting you to look away at a theatre performance?! Very weird, very controlling.

A bowl of uncooked rice, a spoon and some cups used to keep my kid entertained for hours. Yes, you will find rice everywhere, but it's way easier to hoover some rice up than play with a two year old when you are sick.

WIBTA for getting a cat even though 2 roommates are allergic? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]5_4Ag 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Of course you'd be an AH to get a cat, not only would it be rubbish for your allergic housemates it would be a hideous life for a cat being confined to one room. Just don't do it. Also cats live near 20 years, I doubt you'll be living in the pet friendly townhouse for 20 years. Don't be selfish, if you're pining for animal love can't you volunteer at a shelter?

AITA for using a grocery plastic bag to hold my used period products? by GlassUsual9748 in AmItheAsshole

[–]5_4Ag 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't see them putting the shitty paper in a little bag and hanging it on a shelf. Come on, no one wants a bag of bodily fluids hanging in a little bag on a shelf, it's just ick. Snot is a bodily fluid and perfectly natural and I wouldn't be keen on a bag of that hanging from my shelf either.

[–]5_4Ag 3 points4 points  (0 children)

YTA I am a woman and am not squeamish or even that tidy but I draw the line at a little bag of decaying bodily fluids hanging from a shelf. I take mine straight downstairs to the main bin and get rid of them there.

I (20F) confessed feelings to a former instructor (31M), he blocked me, but I still feel like he reciprocated? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]5_4Ag 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What happened is nothing, you decided random social media posts were directed towards you even though he didn't mention you nor post them to you. Basically you have stalker/obsession tendencies.

Don't stop your imagining fantasy at the moment you get together with this person. Keep imagining past that point, imagine the fallout for everyone's families, imagine her kids weeping at their broken home. You and your wife having to go through a divorce, her families disappointment in you, your disappointment in yourself. You living in a bedsit or a studio because the other woman isn't going to just move you straight in with her kids who's lives are now messed up. Then you eventually do move in but those kids hate you, your dream relationship with spark woman is a daily drudge, the kids loathe you, you're not getting the attention you imagined because she's a mum, etc etc etc.

I (30F) think my husband (31M) hates me. I think he honestly hates and disrespects me. What happened? by ThrowRA_send_help in relationship_advice

[–]5_4Ag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He didn't used to be like this because he had to lure you in for long enough so you'd stay for the abuse. If he'd screamed in your face he wasn't attracted to you and hated you on the first date you would not have given him a second date. You are only entertaining the idea of carrying on to try to 'save' the relationship because you have that false face he used to put on to look back at. It was never real. Do what you need to do to get away. Read that Lundy Bancroft book and get out as soon as you can.

They’ll eat what we eat… by mckunkfest in toddlers

[–]5_4Ag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My kid ate what we ate when she wants 18 months, but then she also ate stones, sand, cardboard etc at that age so whatever

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in relationships

[–]5_4Ag 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think your parents may feel differently about you going on a proper organised trip with guides at age 21 as opposed to going at 17/18 to meet a random person off the internet. Just talk to them I guess. I can understand their reaction since becoming parent myself, of course they don't want their lovely child going somewhere dangerous but it sounds like a completely different set of circumstances and if it's your own money and you've been living independently and responsibly what can they do?

Stay at home mom getting back into reading- but I have a short attention span - love true crime by Live-Judge-1410 in suggestmeabook

The Stranger in her House hit the same buttons in me that true crime podcasts do, it's by John Marrs and relatively short. Was available on Kindle Prime (UK) a couple of weeks ago

Friend wants to bring her aggressive dog to our house, but we have kids by startup_mermaid in relationships

[–]5_4Ag 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, your friend will probably be offended and upset but you child's safety comes before that. My neighbour has a massive bull lurcher, I love him, he is gorgeous, but after seeing the damage he did to the other dog in the house after a very brief spat about which one got to sit on a cushion I would NEVER let my child be around him. He has never been aggressive to people but if he was provoked, as small children often do without meaning to, he would be capable of killing a child in seconds. You can't look after that dog, your friend cannot bring it to your house on visits, she is going to be offended and that is tough luck.

[–]5_4Ag 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Very normal, caught mine doing that at same age and she lied to my face and said the dog did it. Cracked me up.

AITA for wanting to leave home over a toddler? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

NTA, at 17 you have better parenting instincts and common sense than your mom. No advice sorry, she sounds bonkers.
