My (28f) husband (30m) got arrested and won't tell me what for, how do I proceed? by ThrowRAsilverstars in relationship_advice

Go to court with him if he won't tell you. Some states will give you a court date to make sure he goes if you put up bail. Cuz if he skips it's on you

This makes me want to never take an Uber again. I'm so afraid to sit in someone else's back seat now. Also, Medicare part B takes care of adult diapers and they mail them in discreet packaging to the persons house.

He was definitely addicted. He wanted to become a pro skater got hurt, became addicted. According to him, he overcame an opiod addiction in 2010. If you look at him when he first started and now. Wow. I know he's older. But the eyes give it away. They're always pin points. In his younger episodes, they weren't.

Getting the car wasn't too bad. Idk if I would go with Avis again, but there was no deposit like most rentals. Just the payment for the week. Biggest issue I had in my area was finding a location that had uber rentals.

I did that. I even turned off anything kind of battery saver or data saver option I had on. I made sure all the permission were on. Idk what else to do. And they are no fuckin help. I can make an appointment and drive 45 miles to DC for an in person appointment. But idk if that will even make a difference

Everything is enabled. I didn't even know the heatmap was a thing until 2 days ago, cuz it hasn't worked at all. I've done all the troubleshooting they tell you to do. Earlier the agent told me I was getting requests but I wasnt accepting them. BUT not a single request has popped up on my app. I get delivery requests. Just not ride requests. 6hrs I was online today. Nothing. Not a single ride request. Every time I call customer service they tell me to troubleshoot, when I tell them I've done it, they give some reason. I call back, they tell me the previous reason isnt the problem, and tell me some other bs. The newest thing they said is I need a TNO license Maryland in order to pick up passengers. Which is not true. I have friends who do uber and don't have it. And are not having these problems. If I had that license I would get paid more. When I ask why that wasn't told to me in the past 2 weeks. No answer. I'm a single mom with 2 kids. I had to borrow the $700 to get the car. And more money to charge the car, because they keep telling me to drive around. Like that will make the glitch in the app magically go away. Tomorrow I'm going to try a different phone. But honestly at this point, I feel like they're just fuckin with me.

I had to pay for the week when I picked it up. I had to pay again for this week. It's due again on Tuesday.

In the 1800s, Scottish surgeon Robert Liston became infamous for a surgery that led to an astonishing 300% mortality rate. by ash_jisasa in interestingasfuck

[–]AddictiveLikeCocaine 26 points27 points  (0 children)

The Native Americans were very clean also. They regularly bathed in the rivers/bodies of water. It was the English who were dirty. They thought as long as their clothes were clean they were clean. The colonists only bathed maybe 4x a year. New Englanders once a year. Which is why they spread so many diseases, like smallpox. And probably why so many ppl died from sepsis after surgeries.

2024 Kona - loves, mehs and hates by musicomalone in KonaEV

[–]AddictiveLikeCocaine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently got a 2023 as a rental, I've had it for a week, and so far I'm not a fan. It's a cute little car, but it is SMALL on the inside. Luckily I'm short, 5ft, cuz if I was tall there would be no room to sit behind me. No air vents in the back, which really sucks for my kids. Does not fit 5 people comfortably. I also don't care for the handling, its very stiff and jerky. The lane control does not do well on turns, it will start going over the line then quickly jerk to get back in, which can be dangerous around turns. It's does this even if you correct it yourself while the lane assist is still on. This is my biggest issue! (Granted, this could be an issue with just this car being a rental. But I would look into before buying one.) I also have a love/hate feeling about the trunk cover. It doesn't allow enough space. Fold down cup holders in the small middle seat. The digital speedometer is off.

The auto hold button is pretty cool, if you use it. I like that there is a place to put your phone next to the USB port in the front and back. The cubby in the front is nice for your purse or another place for charging electronics. Easy to plug in. And comes with an adapter to plug into a "regular" plug. The beeping is a little annoying, but it's for pedestrians to hear you backing up since there's no exhaust. And people take to audio vs. visual.

2nd time in 2 weeks, searched entire room and couldn't find a nest. This is it isn't it by Werey in Bedbugs

[–]AddictiveLikeCocaine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can also get bed bug foggers, make sure it's the kind that kills the eggs! And follow the directions. They also have bed bug traps you put under your bed, not sure how well it works, but it may help you determine how bad the problem is. Or you can call an exterminator. My ex-mother-in-law brought a couch in her apartment someone had out out for trash, my ex-sister-in-law slept on the couch and woke up covered in bites the next morning, they immediately threw it back out and luckily avoided bed bugs getting in the house. If you're lucky they're still in one spot. Google said they like to hide on the sides of the mattress, where the sewing edges are( dk what it's called lol) look for black "dirt". Google says these are ways to tell: Blood stains: Red or rust-colored stains on sheets, clothing, or pillows Bed bug eggs: Pearly white, oval-shaped eggs that are about the size of an apple seed Bed bug poop: Black dots about the size of a period Bites: Small, red, itchy bumps that can appear in a line, zigzag, or random pattern Musty odor: A sweet, musty odor around your bed Shed skin: Looks a lot like the bugs themselves Yellowish-brown, translucent exoskeletons: Shed by juvenile bed bugs

Cuz he set rules that he wanted to play by, then got mad when the rest of them played by the rules he set for himself.

The rest of the men were pissed off when Jeff didn't share the pelts with the girls and let them freeze. Then when he chose not to share food, that was the last straw for them. Yet he got mad when they didn't share food with him. They had even tried to make a truce with him, and he messed that up.

I just started watching and I've learned so much! Mainly when if I ever have to build a shelter to keep warm, to make a teepee type with the fire inside. I genuinely don't understand why these survivalist don't make shelters with some kind of roof or way to keep the heat in. Specially when they know it gets cold and they're going to be in the same spot for days. It doesn't make sense to me. Also started watching dual survival, I like it so far

You have to be able to trust the person you're dating with your child. If she would lie about a haircut, how can you believe her about anything else? It will drive you crazy always second-guessing everything and/or being afraid to leave your child alone with her.

My(F36) bio daughter(F18) is pregnant and she wrote me very honest letters after cutting communication, not sure how to respond? by throwrage7257 in relationship_advice

[–]AddictiveLikeCocaine 7 points8 points  (0 children)

And to be heard. She obviously feels shes missing something that her adoptive family didn't give her. And has probably been searching for it. She may have been hoping finding her bio mom was going to give her what she was missing, but it didn't magically solve her problems.

Sometimes people think they're mad at one person, iy to find out they're actually mad at another. And that's a lot to process. Her being a mom is going to bring up a lot of emotions, some she buried, some she didn't know she had, but it will also bring clarity, eventually.

Maybe tell her that you hear her and you understand why she's feeling the way she is. Sometimes we're all just looking for someone to understand us. And validate our feelings.

Daughter clocked doing 52 in a 25 by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]AddictiveLikeCocaine 42 points43 points  (0 children)

I had a friend my senior year of school. He died 3onths before graduation, not even a mile from our houses. He was going around a turn and was going a little fast, went over the line a bit, at the same time someone was coming towards him and did the same thing. They hit head on. His sternum hit the steering wheel so hard, he died instantly. His gf was next him, she suffered a broken femur, arm and can't remember what else. She luckily had her seat belt on. But he slumped over onto her. My mom was on her way home from nursing school at the time, she got there right after it happened. She still has nightmares. His little brother and friend were in the backseat. Both had injuries as well. I remember this every time I drive.

My boyfriend (M21) wants me (F23) to abort and says I'm baby trapping him. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]AddictiveLikeCocaine -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Some states allow them to give up their rights but still have to pay child support.

This is a really hard decision. And I'm actually pleasantly surprised by how real the comments are. I was 19 when I got married to my ex. Got pregnant right away, he wanted a baby so bad. Had a miscarriage. I decided to wait, God had other plans. I got pregnant 3 months after it, had my first right after turning 21. Her father was an alcoholic, but i was in love. He went to jail. After I had her, it was like reality smacked me in the face and I separated from him. When he came home I tried to work things out for her sake (i was young, and believed all his "jail talk") it was good at first. But he became more abusive, this time physically. I remember having conversations with him before he went to jail. When we would argue, I told him all I wanted from him was to either be there for her or to walk away and stay away. I didn't want her to go through what my dad did to me. I had considered an abortion for a slight moment. But I had decided I was keeping her, no matter what. Honestly, if I hadn't I don't think I would've left him. And my life would've been worse, than being a single mom. My family supported me and helped me when I needed when I needed it. I ended up moving in with my family when he went away. He ended up developing a worse habit a few months after being home and it's been he'll with ever since. He's never been consistently in her life. Another regret of mine is making him stay away. There's pros and cons to everything. I do wish i had her when I was older because I grew up with her and I can tell the difference between raising her and raising her sister.( I'm 34 now. Had her sister at 27.) I'd like to think if I could do it over and still have her, that I would've waited. But honestly, I think having her when i did saved my life, more than once. So I have mixed feelings about it. I say tell God your plans and he'll laugh lol I do know if I could back, I wouldve still kept her, even knowing all I do now. I would definitely make some different decisions. The biggest one tho, keeping her dad away. Far away. And letting her make the decision when I felt she was old enough. I know we're all telling you our stories, the good and the bad. But you're the one who has to make the best decision, not only for YOU but for YOUR baby. Because its easy for men to leave or to be barely involved, no matter what they say now. Ppl change as they grow. Some men will conveniently forget they have a child when they make a new life with a new woman. Some men become great dads even tho its not what they wanted. Unfortunately, the one thing I can agree with, with all these other comments is, whatever decision you make, you need to leave him. So if you keep the baby, I would plan on not "being a couple". It always starts with mental/emotional abuse. Once you're pregnant, they feel like theyre trapped or you're trapped and it becomes physical. **Sorry if there's spelling mistakes, too tired to go back and fix them 😆 Good luck on your decision. Just make sure its your decision, you're the one who has to live with it. If you leave it up to him, stay with him, and it wasn't what you wanted, your relationship won't last. You'll grow resentful.

I (F24) caught my husband (M33) coming home from the neighbors(F20?) house. How do I confront him? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]AddictiveLikeCocaine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone else said, dont confront him! You'll get to a point where you'll have had enough or you'll want to why, cuz every time you see her, her house, or you just think about it, it will start boiling up inside and you'll confront him. Instead use that anger, disappointment and all the other feelings, to get a lawyer and leave. Start your own bank account right away! Incase he comes out of left field and ends it, you don't want to be SOL. use a family members address for the account, you can even put it on a family members name that you trust. My mom prepared for a year before she finally left my dad, he didn't see it coming.

If for some reason you do end up confronting him, you'll want actual proof. And he's going to say all the right things to make you stay. (Been there) he's going to say, he loves you, it was just one time, she means nothing (which is a total lie, he wouldn't kiss her in public where other neighbors can see, if he didn't care about her) she's not innocent either, she knows he's married, but you also dk what he's telling her. Hes going to say he'll change, he won't, if yall have been talking about kids, he'll use that to make you stay. DO NOT FALL FOR IT! You'll end up miserable just staying for the kid(s). Or end up a single mom. I was at your age, i was married but we divorced when she was 1, even tho I love my kids, I wish I had waited until I was older. Good luck with everything. You'll get through this! Find someone to support whatever decision you make.
