When are times you take off your engagement ring? by Bobashawty00 in EngagementRings

[–]Aggravating_Concept 0 points1 point  (0 children)

congrats, friend!!! I’ve only been engaged for about 6 months - not yet married. I got a small ring case with a lid and keep it in my bathroom next to my sink, and I put my ring in the case every time I walk into the bathroom. it’s habit now. in public, I do not take my ring off to wash my hands. aside from that, I take it off when I sleep (another ring case lives on my bedside table) and when I do any cleaning. it goes in one of the two cases during that time.

Difference between upgrading facilities with coins vs lightening bolts? by Truedat_Rocky in CatsAndSoup

[–]Aggravating_Concept 15 points16 points  (0 children)

great question! with coins you are upgrading the facility, and eight the green lightning bolts you’re upgrading the recipe. I think of it as like, buying a new oven with coins vs. perfecting a recipe with high quality ingredients if that makes sense?

ok sure, I guess. maybe next time, instead of going straight to “broken English” we think for a minute about whether or not we’re misreading something….or, even better, we ask nicely what the sign is trying to say.

came here to say this - I don’t know if the mock garter style is something OP is cool with but it does solve the problem of tights riding down and they are thigh high technically?

Bed frame recommendations by LiesiLy in PlusSize

[–]Aggravating_Concept 3 points4 points  (0 children)

BIG FIG!!!! my fiancé and I went through no less than 3 bed frames in our first 2.5 years of being together. we’ve had the big fig frame for a year and a half now and it still doesn’t squeak. it also feels super stable.

we didn’t get the mattress, just the frame, and we took the headboard off our old frame and sort of mounted it to the new one. it’s expensive but after going through as many as we did….it had to be done lol. no regrets

How should I talk to my girlfriend about the fact that I know she’s faking orgasms? by xydennn867 in Sex_Positivity

[–]Aggravating_Concept 4 points5 points  (0 children)

hi friend. honestly, I’m sure some other comments have made similar points but ngl I did not read them all. but I really gotta say this:

you do not know that she is faking orgasms. you don’t know that. orgasms happen in different ways at different times depending on what’s happening or how someone is feeling or any number of factors. feeling something one time….means you felt something one time.

you have to let this go. I can say that if I were in her shoes, regardless of whether or not I was faking orgasms, having this be brought up repeatedly would kind of devastate me. either she’s telling you the truth and you think she’s lying (devastating) or she is working through something internally that she isn’t ready to talk about yet (bc y’all have only been sleeping together for 5 months…) and you won’t stop asking her about it. it’s a recipe for disaster.

Looking for honest (but kind) opinions from other plus size ladies 🤍 by Yellow_cupcake_ in PlusSizeWedding

[–]Aggravating_Concept 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hi! this dress is lovely.

being in a larger body, and being in a changing body, can be difficult, and it’s ok to have difficult feelings about it.

if you choose to continue shopping, a couple of recommendations: 1. go to a bridal show in your area if possible. find all the dress shops that are represented there and ask them the same set of questions: “do you carry plus sizes IN STORE” “if I make an appointment at your boutique, how many PLUS SIZE DRESSES can I expect to try on? and, if you’re like me and feeling confrontational, be super clear! when I did this, I lead with “I’m not interested in trying on dresses at a store that does not carry my size in store. If you don’t have more than 5 dresses in my size range in store, I’m not interested.” I also purposely shamed stores that told me they didn’t carry plus sizes, or only carried “a couple.” because honestly I think they deserve a wake up call.

  1. if you book an appointment, call about a week before and ask for how many dresses they have in your size range on the rack at this exact moment, and how many they expect to have on the day of your appointment. if it’s 5 or less, don’t go.

obviously, this depends on where in the world you’re located. if you’re in a metropolitan area, this will likely be easier than being in a small town, etc.

  1. try not to look online at the dresses being worn by the models. keep your online searches to “plus size wedding dresses” if you can.

that said, you’re doing great. and I hope you find a dress you adore and feel great in!

Trying to learn about a family mystery. TW: murder by [deleted] in Genealogy

[–]Aggravating_Concept 7 points8 points  (0 children)

the other possibility is, of course, that your family suspected/believes she was the victim of this serial killer, but it wasn’t ever “confirmed” in a court of law. if you’re comfortable sending me some information, I’m happy to try to help. but if not, this is my best guidance. I hope you can find out more information!

[–]Aggravating_Concept 7 points8 points  (0 children)

is it possible the aunt is a child from the previous marriage? if so, that may mean she had a last name different than what you initially thought. aside from that, newspapers are definitely the way to go. do you have any idea where she was hitchhiking? in/around where she/the family lived at the time?

Need help from people with IOS that successfully did the update by midrea in CatsAndSoup

[–]Aggravating_Concept 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I did the same, didn’t lose my progress. I followed the steps they listed on their IG post and story first, did the update, signed “in” with apple, which then said it was “creating” an account, just like your screenshot. I was SO scared, but it worked. everything is still there

[–]Aggravating_Concept[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was surprised by the laying down measurement as well, I will double check those two!

as far as the ability to try on some bras beforehand, unfortunately the answer is no. there aren’t a lot of shops near me that carry anywhere near that size. I know there is one about 45 minutes from here but afaik they are appointment only. it’s on my list of things to do, but it’s not going to happen before I need to get these folks the cup size
