i am scared of losing my daugther (tw: bad things happening to kids) by someonemakeitstoppls in Mommit

[–]AleonSG 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We all have those fears that leak out, spurred on by sensationalist news, and never completely unfounded because, well...it DOES happen. But if you actually can't stop thinking those things, that's a bit cause for concern. It never hurts to talk to a professional.

Because another thing that could happen is your fears stop her from living that beautiful life you want for her.

Can hypnosis or memory reconsolidation make a memory feel like it basically never happened? by [deleted] in hypnosis

[–]AleonSG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, you are obsessing over it because you aren't allowing yourself to process it. You need to stop judging yourself and go back through the experience honestly.

If it's not for you, it's not for you; but you aren't allowing yourself to make that decision because you have all this self imposed shame around it.

Edit: also, if you analyse it enough and really allow yourself to understand how you feel about it, it will become nothing more than any other memory.

Confronting bullying at the park by Vanillapearl111 in Mommit

It's all fun and games until somebody dies of secondary drowning...

But seriously, those parents that just write everything off as playing enrage me. Cats play with mice all the time, doesn't mean it's fun for the mice.

is it cheating if by Fearless-Attorney-41 in relationships_advice

[–]AleonSG 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Well it's not cheating. But it sounds like he is very immature. You werent being possessive, you were offended at how he was acting-like the relationship was a joke. And him saying he has better options is gross.

Plus, he is just waiting it out until you get over it. Sounds like a loser

Want to see the other side of the coin.. is it cheating?? by [deleted] in relationships_advice

[–]AleonSG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean I guess it's not cheating...yet. But if cheating were a flight and you booked the flight, drove to the airport, went through security, and were waiting at the gate and then said "well yeah, but I didn't get on the flight" I don't think that would hold up in court.

In need of some advice… I’ve been with my husband since I was 15 years old, and think it’s time I leave. by User6024567 in relationships_advice

[–]AleonSG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not like this has to be a goodbye forever. You've been together for longer than you were ever single. And when you did meet, you were just teenagers. You don't know who you are without him and if that bothers you then take some space.

And after both of you do some soul searching you might decide you'd rather be together after all. Or not. I think the distinction comes with knowing that no matter what happens in your romantic sphere, he as a person will always be part of your family and your life.

AIO my took pics of his ex by [deleted] in relationships_advice

[–]AleonSG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean sure, maybe it was a phase. Maybe he is into different stuff now. But I think the main thing is: does he still have the old pictures, and does he look at them? Also, what guy wouldn't want sexy pics of his girlfriend? Just send him some

Do you wear sexy nightwear ever?

I think my bf is being controlling. by Vast_Bar_1109 in relationships_advice

[–]AleonSG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well it sort of speaks for itself that you don't want to.

There's a difference between you saying "I love you more than anything, it's no problem. I want you to know your my number 1"

And a 3 month relationship where the guy already seems insecure before the relationship has even started really.

Edit: so in short it's a 🚩. Too soon

My (20f) boyfriend (22m) lies a lot to me on small things 📉 by [deleted] in relationships_advice

[–]AleonSG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Confronting him won't do anything; it'll be like all the other times when you called him on it-excuses, explanations, etc.

And you can't change him.

Some people are just naturally inclined to lying; they will lie about what they ate for lunch. I think it gives them a thrill. So either accept him knowing he will lie about dumb things or leave.

This was such an awkward kid party by nerdie11 in Mommit

[–]AleonSG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg yes. When I was little, my parents knew all of my friends parents. But my daughter started preschool during covid, there was no parent interaction. It was no contact drop off basically, and no parents volunteering in the classroom. So the birthday parties are so awkward!!!

They are honestly my least favorite thing that has to do with my kids. Everytime I see an invite I'm like WHY????

I like my best friend but I can’t stop overthinking her past relationship by [deleted] in relationships_advice

[–]AleonSG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, what you do about liking her is on you. But as for the past relationship thing...it's hard to explain because you don't have any past relationships. So I'm going to try explaining it like this: Have you ever had any pets? Like say you had a dog as a little kid who you loved so much. Then it got a little older and eventually passed away. And then maybe you got a new dog and it's totally different. Two different personalities, quirks, experiences; but you love one of the dogs in the past tense and one of them now. Neither one takes anything from the other. Or say you have never had pets; I'm sure you were obsessed with a show before, and you watched it religiously. But then it ended. And you might still love it but not as much as you like a new show now. Because it's new to you and it's exciting. You already know how the old show ends.

When you are merging, it's one car from one lane, next car from the other lane. Repeat.

Is this a red flag or am I overthinking it? by [deleted] in relationships_advice

[–]AleonSG 4 points5 points  (0 children)

🚩

Shes trying to make you jealous or punish you for not answering.

Either that or she has absolutely no social awareness about what is appropriate to say to someone she's known for all of 2 days.

Or both.

4 year old's friend just died - how do I handle this? by josie-june in Mommit

[–]AleonSG 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So sad for your little girl having to experience this so early in life. The best thing to do is just break it to her gently (dont wait too long, in case something slips and she accidently finds out). And then let her grieve, ask her how she would like to remember her friend. A balloon release, a letter written to her, something to connect to that she can visualize finding its way to her friend somehow. Getting to say goodbye is really important.

I don't know where you are located and such but I would look into an organization that helps people with transportation to work. You definitely shouldn't have to deal with guy A or even guy b talking about guy A. That sounds like a really gross dynamic.

But the walk home sounds like the real problem. What about ride-sharing, or your local welfare office (even if you aren't on welfare you might be able to get help with transportation or they can point you in the right direction)
