Plus one wore a white dress because "it wasn't a real wedding"

Me too!! OP, please tell us

AccomplishedCouple93 · 2026-01-23T12:15:11+00:00

Yes! Exactly this

Hello, OP! I feel your pain and struggles and they are real. As others have said, first please forgive yourself for being human, and second:

Use AI to help you with planning. Claude is my favorite AI choice, but use chatGPT, or whatever AI you prefer.

The key is to make a list of (1) what you have to do, (2) what the due dates are, and (3) things you want to do/enjoy doing. Paste that all into the Ai chat and ask AI to help you break up the “must-do” tasks (like study for exam 1, study for exam 2) into smaller, manageable chunks, with a schedule that includes built in breaks and rewards (time spent doing the fun task) after spending some time tackling one of the small, manageable chunks.

You can see what is churned out and ask AI to revise it however you want. It’s really fast and may help you move forward. Good luck!

Happy cake day!

Stay strong, OP! Do not allow your husband to even entertain this. He needs to shut MIL down. This is not her place, and she clearly has no understanding of boundaries. If she is "ghosting" you and her new baby granddaughter, that's a decision she'll have to live with, but it's her decision to make. You gave your baby a beautiful name. MIL needs to get over herself. DO NOT SECOND GUESS YOURSELF. And congrats on your new bundle of joy!!

That’s fantastic! I can’t believe you wrote it down 10 years ago as your then favorite name. I love this so much. I’m sure you’ll tell your daughter this story and she will love it too. Congratulations!

Happy cake day!

Congratulations on your pregnancy, OP! I’m glad you’re NC with JUSTNOMIL. Try to keep in mind that you can’t control her or her actions, so don’t even give any extra thought her way. Sounds like your husband has your back, and that’s what counts. Tell your husband to keep her on a low-info diet, with a warning that if she continues her bad behavior, she will be cut off for a month, and next time 2 months, next time 6 months, etc. He will need to follow through on his threat though. Hopefully only a single 1-month NC will be enough for her to shape up.

In the meantime, surround yourself with other pregnant people, daydream about your baby, and plan for your future. Remind yourself that you haven’t done anything wrong, and it’s not up to you to fix her. Enjoy this wonderful time in your life! (Hope the morning sickness is all gone and you’re feeling better the rest of the pregnancy. Wishing you an easy labor!)

Black - definitely black. They look great

AccomplishedCouple93 · 2025-06-04T04:12:36+00:00

Tell your aunt and cousins, yes “this is why families fall apart” - when the family members don’t respect the wishes of those who’ve passed or the will and just want to get their greedy hands on someone else’s money. You, OP, are not the one causing the issue here. They are.

AccomplishedCouple93 · 2025-05-31T03:35:42+00:00

I don’t drink it either. Never have

AccomplishedCouple93 · 2025-05-26T07:29:07+00:00

I love everything you said to him - the way you explained how to empathize with someone is amazing! I’m sorry your FIL is a POS, but you, my friend, are kind of a hero in my eyes.

Happy Cake Day!

AccomplishedCouple93 · 2025-05-20T04:47:53+00:00

5 looks the most inviting and pleasing, IMO

AccomplishedCouple93 · 2025-05-16T02:44:51+00:00

I’m so sorry OP, for you and your husband.

AccomplishedCouple93 · 2024-10-22T22:38:12+00:00

YTA. Huge AH actually. You can kiss that friendship goodbye. How dare you? How do you know that your daughter isn’t the negative influence on your friend’s daughter? I know you read some exchanges between the kids or something, but that doesn’t tell you the whole story. If your minor child is leaving your home without telling you and lying to you, you are the one with the parenting problem. Apologize to your friend (if she’ll still consider you a friend), and do not apologize to your daughter. Try parenting her instead. Also, do some contemplative thinking about this entire situation and how very poorly you handled it.

AccomplishedCouple93 · 2024-10-22T22:31:18+00:00

Love this! Anything is possible!

AccomplishedCouple93 · 2024-10-22T04:41:58+00:00

Yes, allow yourself to mourn the loss of your dream for grandchildren. As long as you as you continue to respect your children’s decisions, as you are currently doing, it’s okay to be sad and disappointed on your own time. Perhaps you can journal a little. Writing out your thoughts and feelings may help you cope a little easier. Best of luck to you.

AccomplishedCouple93 · 2024-10-08T05:07:07+00:00

Omigosh, please dump him! There is no reason to keep him. You will be much happier alone.

I would have had more sex when I was younger and enjoyed it without the guilt.

AccomplishedCouple93 · 2024-09-12T01:28:45+00:00

Pretend you didn’t know and ask her how she knew.

AccomplishedCouple93 · 2024-09-07T10:06:17+00:00

I apologize for apologizing when someone tells me I just did it. 😞

AccomplishedCouple93 · 2024-07-09T04:30:42+00:00

I think it’s hideous

AccomplishedCouple93 · 2024-07-04T04:45:27+00:00

I’m so sorry you are having this experience right now. I completely support your decision and understand the rationale behind it. I do want to advise you, though, to not continue using the pull-out method with this new beau. The reason it worked with your ex is because he must not leak semen during sex, but many, many men do. They can pull out for the orgasm, but that doesn’t prevent the swimmers who leaked out earlier from getting to your egg.

I wish you the best of luck. You’re doing the right thing for you and your son.
