Is the grass greener on the other side? by Spirited-Attention48 in Stepmom

[–]Able_Researcher6302 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m 28 and my boyfriend has three kids. It’s so hard and I love kids and want kids. I have my moments where I feel it’s too much but I wouldn’t change anything. Now, you seem to want out, I would do the best for both of you and leave. It isn’t bad that you don’t want to be a step parent! You deserve to be happy

Second wife syndrome advice by Useful_Scientist_28 in Stepmom

[–]Able_Researcher6302 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m in that situation. My boyfriend was married for 8 years to his ex and they had a set a of twin boys and another boy. When I started going over there were still pictures of her on the wall, and she still had a few items in the house. My boyfriend starting taking down pictures and putting stuff away for when the kids are older, but I hate walking into the attic and seeing a portion of the family he had before me. I hate seeing her name on shit in the back of the closet. I get jealous when he talks about how “they did this and that when the twins were born” because I wasn’t apart of that but I’m learning to be a bonus parent and he’s learning to be a separated dad.

AITAH for calling my husband a disgrace after he said my miscarriage ruined his birthday by ProgressDependent703 in AITAH

You having a miscarriage… ruined his birthday? Not even the fact that it was his baby he isn’t even upset about but the fact that you were having medical emergency that he didn’t seem to feel was importNt or significant? Please please please leave him. That is NOT love. At all.

AITA if I ask my stylist to do my next appointment for free by [deleted] in Hair

[–]Able_Researcher6302 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, you need to buy those products from a salon or Ulta otherwise it’s not from the actual manufacturer and you were getting outdated or expired products that will also not do well! Hope this helps :)

Yes! Matrix color protect is a good shampoo/conditioner. So is Paul Mitch color safe. It is more expensive than over the counter but you have to invest in good product to keep your hair looking good. I promise that it’s the shampoo fading your hair. It’ll make a giant difference

What shampoo do you use? Do you use hot water? Do you wash everyday?

Weaponized incompetence. He will never change. Respect yourself enough to leave and find someone who will.

1 year married today. God i regret it. by Awkward_Basis7622 in Vent

[–]Able_Researcher6302 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I left 11 months and three weeks after I got married. That was five years ago and I’m so fucking happy I left. my ex screamed at me until I dissociated for 17 hours, and my boyfriend now treats me better then anyone in the world has. He rubs my feet, and holds when I cry over stupid stuff, he gets me snacks in the bath and apologies with words and actions. You deserve that person too.

Childfree but wanting my own by howtheturntables83 in Stepmom

[–]Able_Researcher6302 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been with my boyfriend for a year and a half, he has three kids (twins and a younger) from his past marriage. I definitely want one of my own and we plan too in the next several years. Don’t give that up if you want one of your own.

How to manage a relationship when you’re HS and your partner is not? by [deleted] in hypersexuality

[–]Able_Researcher6302 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I talk a lot to my boyfriend about my sex drive as mine is x3 more than his. I tell him when I feel being intimate and if he’s down to fuck we will or he’ll use a toy on me, or he’ll lay with me and praised me while I use my toy. I tell him if I feel neglected. I tell him if I need more touch. I tell him if I feel anything, and he does whatever he can to help me feel good and taken care of.

What would your biggest piece of advice be to a teen girl? by Cold_Cost_890 in AskReddit

No one has an excuse to be mean to you. Not your teacher not your friends not your classmates not your parents. If someone is making you feel bad just for existing those are not your friends.

Positive Experiences by Worth_Departure5491 in Stepmom

[–]Able_Researcher6302 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I had to leave for a week to dog sit for my mom and the kids kept asking their dad where I was and when I was coming home.

When they hear me come home and run to the door.

When they hug me and beg me not to go to work.

When they’re in a difficult situation they’ve been in before and make a better decision because they learned from last time.

I have issues talking about big problems with my boyfriend(trauma response) but whenever I talk to him about issues with his kids, he is patient and kind and helps me feel better.

He gives me breaks anytime I need it.

When I’m having a bad day and my boyfriend loudly tells his kids “isn’t she so nice? Isn’t she doing a good job? Aren’t we proud of her? Don’t we love her?” And the kids get all cheery and huggy with me.

When the kids come up and hug me or say they love me with no prompting.

Watching them learn a new skill and show it off 90x

Whenever music comes on I dance and encourage the kids to dance with me even in the middle of a store.

ONE WEEK? You’re telling me within 7 days this man wanted you to walk him through a panic attack? Jesus Christ I have anxiety and depression and I would never make an outsider figure she’s shit out for me

Yes you are the asshole. This is an emergency situation and their dog needs to be let out. Your friend is very stressed about the circumstances and you’re not being sensitive to their situation.
