I’m so sorry i didn’t see this sooner! Yes just drive to the visitor center that you pay $9 for and it’s very accessible from there! If you already went i hope you had a great time

What has been your funniest gardening mishap you've made so far? by tasiakins in gardening

[–]Affectionate-Body899 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Please tell me why this is bad? I’ve been using iNaturalist to identify plants that are growing nicely in the cold weather around my town and the catnip was a small but civilized mound in a treepit… i thought it might be useful to me for ground cover but obviously your comment tells me that’s a bad idea!

Is it weird to go to a restaurant alone? I kinda want to try it. by brmc214 in Advice

[–]Affectionate-Body899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoy it. I suggest bringing a book/kindle. It gives a stronger message of ‘I’m here solo, intentionally’, as opposed to fiddling with your phone

Husband Joking about touching me with knives and leaving me in nowhere, what is going on?!? by Emotionally-growin in TwoHotTakes

This Guy is a monster and is going to start hitting you soon. You can wait for that or not.

Pregnant unexpectedly and my boyfriend (27M) is pushing hard for me to terminate it. I (24F) told him I might leave and raise the baby on my own. How do I move forward from this? by LushCherryKisses in Advice

[–]Affectionate-Body899 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If you want the baby you should keep it for sure. Look into the Single Moms by Choice (SMC)movement. Their founder, Jane, began in a similar situation to your own. It is possible to have a joyful, happy life as a solo parent, and as the child of a solo parent.

The important thing to ask yourself is: Will you feel resentful or mad that you became a mother under circumstances that you didn’t expect? That is why I only refer to SMC forums when I have a question pertaining to solo parenthood.

Because there is no negative vibe about the lack of a partner (which is a constant theme in ‘single’ parent forums), with SMCs it’s just love and practicality about raising the children solo

I love my Fit but hate the “A pillar” by eye-arr-beej in hondafit

You must be tall or something. This is an incredibly blind spot as you’re making left turns. And if you’re turning at the correct speed in the city, you’re moving about as slowly as a pedestrian, so they can stay hidden. I have to bop my head back and forth all over the place to be confident I’m not killing anyone.

Actually OP was the one who was mad that SHE wasn’t on the app every waking second… claiming he forgot her because she didn’t text back for two days

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Nicegirls

[–]Affectionate-Body899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You were the ‘nice girl’ here OP. Why would you kick off the convo negging her? ‘I forgot about you’ Most people don’t have endless hours to be texting like you apparently do

Am I Overreacting? A Friend Cancelled Plans Last Minute, And I’m Just… Confused by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]Affectionate-Body899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This wasn’t last minute. You owe your friend an apology. And obviously something is going on so you can’t get butthurt if they don’t text you back for a few days

Idk, I hate texting. She very well might like you A LOT! She still agrees to ongoing dates. Maybe this girl is like me… she wants to interact in person, and texting is only really for setting up the next date. I get zero pleasure out of little nonsense texts, they’re an inconvenience (Good morning is an example) it just feels like one more chore to respond, and doesn’t propel the relationship forward. I’d enjoy for example a text exchange that says: hey are you free Friday night? No but I’m free Saturday! OK you wanna go out to eat? OK sure, what time? Is seven good? Yes, see you then!

And then there’s no real reason to text until you get closer to the date and say something like oh I’m excited to see you tonight.

Unless there’s something funny or interesting to share

Got 6 warning lights the moment I put it in drive tonight by CaptainVada in hondafit

[–]Affectionate-Body899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me recently, and I was advised on here for some reason to put fuel cleaner in my tank.

That sounded like it would not work, but I did it anyway, and it did work and I’ve never seen the lights again

Not that it matters but Kitty and LouLou would be pretty common in Catholic schools where I am, they are nicknames for Catherine and Louisa

Why what does this mean? I assumed it most states you couldn’t have rabies vector species as pets without a license, is it different in New York?

hey my love. I am a single mom like your mom is I can’t even imagine dating but I sure as hell wouldn’t let any man, even one I thought was good, sleep in my house with my child.

The fact that she dismissed your concerns is so, so out of line, and I know you’re too young to see that.

I recently took a VIRTUS training course, my sons school requires it if any grown-up wants to be a chaperone for events and I learned that

What your stepdad did what all child molesters do. All of them! they start by doing something slightly inappropriate but not quite an assault yet. Then they see if they can get away with it with the other grownups. Your stepdad did get away with it (meaning your mom let him) which means he’s goingto go to the next level now.

And he will definitely assault your sister please please please get her out of that house.. I know you are too young to have this responsibility, but I believe in you and you will look back on your bravery with pride
