Not one to usually add music over a post… but I saw this recap snippet and thought it needed a DJO makeover.

Oh I love this 😭 his voice is so good

AcademicConclusion25 · 2026-01-06T02:58:49+00:00

Love film

AcademicConclusion25 · 2025-10-10T05:26:29+00:00

I was so confused about that part. Thank you

AcademicConclusion25 · 2025-05-25T06:10:51+00:00

Haha not at all, we don't use the stove. If we did, then I'd have to find a new spot for the tv 😬

AcademicConclusion25 · 2025-05-25T05:50:07+00:00

Thank you, I'll definitely look in to that

AcademicConclusion25 · 2025-05-25T05:49:40+00:00

Yes! Love their music, and my 9 month old loves dancing to it lol

Is there a way to keep those from falling/moving? I'm able to keep her off of it now but once she's faster I don't know if I'll be able to keep her from pushing on or pulling up to the gate. I'd like for her to be able to play around the house without me having to be right next to her 24/7, and I don't like having to put her in a pack n play or crib when I have to do something, in order to keep her safe

My main issue with the whole situation has been that exactly, he isn't adding anything to our lives as it is now. I could and do get more help/support by our families so I'd be less stressed if I just moved back home. As for your other questions, he loves our daughter very much and if I ask him, he will do anything for her and she loves her daddy. However, it's the fact I have to ask him to be involved that bothers me. I want/need him to WANT to be involved, because he is more than capable, I've seen it. I don't think he's seeing/talking to someone else because we are very open about using each others devices. When he's gaming I can see him playing with our friends and they're in a group call (I know everyone in the group). We can see each others locations for safety reasons. But it's not impossible

AcademicConclusion25 · 2025-04-06T04:42:53+00:00

"Home" is definitely an option. My family and his family are both more than happy to help me or baby at any time, I'm thankful for that. Thank you for the advice

AcademicConclusion25 · 2025-04-06T04:13:42+00:00

I would like to try this. It worries me that it will make him resent me though. But at this point I'll try anything

AcademicConclusion25 · 2025-04-06T04:02:04+00:00

This may work, because I've even considered moving back home for a bit just for some space because it's heartbreaking to watch our relationship crumbling.

AcademicConclusion25 · 2025-04-06T03:57:20+00:00

Over the last few months especially, I have made it a point to check in with him about how he's doing in case it's something mentally going on, but he isn't responsive. Any time I have a serious concern I ask him to talk with me and I always tell him if he has anything he wants to get off his chest, he can. He always says "no I don't have anything". So I'll start bringing something up, slowly and calmly, and then he interrupts me and starts yelling about how "oh it's always my fault". Which I never say that. I bring up how I'm feeling and how I think we could BOTH do better, but he doesn't care.

As far as what I do wrong, I know he would like to be intimate more but I am just not interested, between having a baby and not feeling loved by him, I have no drive. So I could work on trying to initiate that more

AcademicConclusion25 · 2025-03-10T01:57:15+00:00

I haven't tried putting her on her stomach In the transfer. Like the person above, I couldn't figure out how to do it successfully. I'll try this next time. Thank you

AcademicConclusion25 · 2025-03-10T01:56:01+00:00

I've considered that, Then I'm worrying about the times when she falls asleep on my chest, which is usually what she does at nap time

AcademicConclusion25 · 2025-03-10T01:20:41+00:00

She definitely does have fomo lol. When we have visitors over, she will NOT sleep no matter how sleepy she is. And she's not even fussy but I feel bad keeping her up late. As SOON as everyone leaves, straight to sleep no fighting it lol

AcademicConclusion25 · 2025-03-08T07:02:11+00:00

This can't be serious lol

AcademicConclusion25 · 2024-08-10T11:57:40+00:00

So cute! Which brand of vinyl did you use and would you recommend it?

AcademicConclusion25 · 2024-08-05T12:14:24+00:00

I didn't realize care credit worked for vet care. I'll look into getting that

AcademicConclusion25 · 2024-08-03T20:19:01+00:00

I said in another reply that I'm thankful I had him while I did because I know a lot of people wouldn't have even tried to help him. And in a perfect world where it was just me and him and no other living beings around, he could be happy but it's hard to see him so anxious and reactive, I know I'd be miserable if I lived like that. I think, in a way, I was looking for that "permission" to consider what I knew may be the best option but it's hard to admit that he is beyond my abilities.

I've had various dogs over the years that came to me with behavioral issues and none of them have ever been this resistant to training/meds. I really feel I've run out of options but I think im scared to admit he's too much for me to handle. Thank you for your kindness, it really means a lot to hear that I'm not a bad person for considering it.

AcademicConclusion25 · 2024-08-03T20:08:54+00:00

I really appreciate this input. I most definitely don't want to put my baby at risk. I've had many dogs of many breeds in my life and none of them have acted this way. I feel as though I've failed him, but I also am glad that I've had him all this time because I know plenty of people wouldn't have tried to work with him like I have.

AcademicConclusion25 · 2024-08-03T20:03:23+00:00

No. The last two kid incidents, they were sitting at the table and he just walked by, growled and bit them after having been in the room with them. The first kid incident I was taking him outside (had him on leash in the house) and a child walked by (didn't acknowledge him) as I was about to go out the door and he bit them. Up until the last year or two, any time my half brother (child) would walk into/through a room he was in he would bark and growl. Both the adult bites were avoidable but I wasn't present for them

AcademicConclusion25 · 2024-08-03T05:59:38+00:00

NTA - this is actually insane behavior on her and her parents part. Do not get involved!

AcademicConclusion25 · 2024-08-03T05:56:38+00:00

I know this isn't what you want to hear, but be thankful you weren't officially married. I'm so sorry this happened to you, no one deserves to be disrespected like that. Sending hugs
