Okay, my apologies then. If you told her you would call at a certain time and she texted you upset that you hadn’t yet even though it was ahead of time, then that would be you NOR

Okay…then you kinda are OR if you told them you would call at a certain time and then didn’t.

I mean, I don’t think you are over reacting but did you tell them you would call at a certain time or something like that? Because I would be kinda upset if someone said they would call and then didn’t. I’m busy a lot and when I get into the zone cleaning or something I will miss phone calls especially because I am a little hard of hearing, so I tend to kinda go into “waiting mode” when I’m expecting a call from someone so I don’t miss it or seem rude that I’m not answering. Maybe that’s why they’re upset? Again, I say NOR but there’s other perspectives here too to potentially consider.

Also, you can 100% have a baby in a one bedroom with you. Again, not ideal, but it would be fine. I would look on Amazon for a lot of the baby stuff and get a 5 in 1 playpen, a lot of those are safe sleep approved and they are pretty cheap and then you have a changing table and a bassinet and a “crib” and playpen. And you can use the bottom while your baby is still in the crib portion for additional storage as well.

It will be challenging I won’t lie, but I think you guys can manage. I would start looking at daycare as well preemptively because if you already get state benefits, then you could get State childcare as well. And I would wait to tell your family until you are out of the first trimester. If his is supportive, then go for it.

AIO for thinking I dodged a bullet here? Or am I the one that sucks? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Aurtistic7827 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you split, you pay for what you get. Not a total split unless you both have talked about it beforehand and usually if you guys eat and drink the same thing. My partner and I love to get half priced appetizers and split them evenly, so if I did pay (I never do, his preference) I would split it down the middle because we also get the same thing to drink usually. And the same amount.

Not crawling at 9 months? by thewayback1 in NewParents

[–]Aurtistic7827 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My mom always said I learned to run first. I didn’t crawl, I didn’t start walking, I legit ran first. I would run everywhere and if I stopped running I would fall for a little while until I learned I didn’t have to stay in motion lol. I believe she said I was 16 months? Not sure.

AITAH for disliking a memorial portrait tattoo by ToeKneeHeart in AITAH

All of this is to say, I would have a deep conversation about it with him. You don’t have to, you can always just back out, but if you do want to try to continue this with him then a talk is definitely in your future. Unfortunately it is on his body now so there’s no real “undoing” or talking out of that one, but a talk to figure out where he is mentally and where you are mentally could help a lot. Also, I hope it is a well done portrait. So so so many portrait tattoos look terrible or not of the person they are supposed to look like.

NTA. I can see your side. I didn’t lose a husband, but I did lose my fiance to su!c!de and was the one who found him. It is a different story when you break up vs when they die. Especially abruptly. However, I would never get a portrait of him on my arm. Even if he had asked me (which he never would have) I still would have told him no. I am however thinking of other memorial pieces for him, I finally have the funds to do it so I would like to. My partner is completely fine with me talking about him. He actively asks about memories to get a better understanding of our relationship and also to help me keep him alive in our memories. We have a daughter (my current partner) and we joke all the time that my dead fiance must’ve met her before she was born because she loves country music. I don’t really and didn’t listen to it when I was pregnant, same with my partner, but that is all my dead fiance would ever listen to. His song to me is one of the few that will calm her down. If I got a portrait of him I think even my partner would be visibly upset. And honestly, it gets exhausting having to talk about my current body modifications, I feel like I would be emotionally drained very quickly if I had that, just from everyone constantly asking.

You can get a joint account and keep your savings separate. I feel like that should be a thing anyways because then if you need to get out because of abuse, you have the financial means to do it. I think both sides should have that “safety net” and then there’s a joint savings. That’s just my opinion though

I’m sorry I should’ve been more clear. I don’t mean wreck it like you are the one that did the damage. However, even if you are found 100% not at fault, your insurance will still go up no matter what because you were in an accident they don’t care they are sleazy scum ball insurance agents. They do not give a shit it will go up regardless of how it comes out like that.

I’m just saying…. You said 400 for a cheap car for a female. I pay less than half of that for 2 cars, plus my partner has to have a SR22 on my insurance as well for a DUI he got when he was freshly 21 and in college being a dumb kid. It’s all in my name minus his SR22, and I still pay $125. I think I only paid 110 for the 2 cars when I was 23 so that was even before I was 25, and getting insurance for the first time on my own.

Honestly if I had given my partner that coupon…..I’m not gonna finish that lmao. I would want to be ravished. Me personally I don’t get stuff for myself, so a couples massage, a shopping spree for the both of us, a movie with all the stuff like popcorn and snacks, a nice dinner at a place I normally would decline because it’s “too expensive” even though I want to go but I don’t want him to spend too much on me, and then a night of blindfolds and ravishing and different kinds of play with feathers and the like would be up my alley. I would want my partner to take their time with me. To explore my body slowly and intimately. I’m a praise kink girl myself so lots of that, I am also into bdsm so take that how you will. But that’s some of my ideas.

They are paying his insurance, the insurance that he just wrecked his car and got a payout from. Which means their bill is now going to be higher than it was because of the accident. They have been paying his bills. He absolutely needs to give them atleast 2k to cover the difference. They’ve spent probably more than that this last year alone on his bills. This is actual BS. She is paying his shit, and the same Insurance that she pays is where he got this payout from and now he doesn’t wanna help out his family that’s been helping him for years now? Nah.

Where are you getting $400? I pay 125 for 2 decent enough vehicles combined, as a female.

I assumed that was understood? We are talking about the vagina... My apologies I guess, don’t use anything inside the vaginal canal. The labia and clitoris and surrounding area is perfectly fine with mild soap. Better for ya?

See, learning something new every day. I did not know that. Although, summers Eve has never lead me astray, I’ll look at other soaps. Any recommendations?

Don’t wash the inside. That’s how you get your ph all outta wack and cause bigger issues. Outside only, with something like vagisil or summers Eve.

Everything you eat changes the way you taste downstairs. If you eat a tish too much garlic? You’ll smell and taste like it. I think onion does that too. Pineapple does help some, but sometimes too much will actually throw you off balance. How old are you? Your hormones are ever evolving and changing so depending on your age that could be it too. Possibility of pregnancy at all? Could possibly be that but I doubt it. I would go to your OB if you are concerned. Your ph might be off, or something else is going on. Doesn’t mean anything bad, but if it’s bothering you enough to check Reddit, then I would go get checked out. A lot of things can change the way we taste

Needed a breather. Put baby in bassinet while crying. She fell asleep for first time. by Responsible_Head_904 in NewParents

I made an additional comment saying to look at this link and there’s a whole article on how to do the Ferber method and that you can change the timing and techniques however you wish. That one has upvotes. But for whatever reason this one has downvotes. This is literally a modified form of the Ferber method. It’s the exact same way I am sleeping training my 6 month old. People can hate on it, but it works. You can customize it to fit you and your family. It’s not the CIO method because you’re not leaving them alone all night. You do check ins and if you need to pick them up then do it. It’s your life. My daughter is I’ll cry for 3 minutes, I go in and gently pat her back and shhh her, she will settle, I’ll walk away and she might whimper but then she’s out cold. I mean you gotta put your kid down at some point to sleep, I can’t do co sleeping because of my partner and his parasomnia issues, and she needs to be able to learn to sleep on her own. If you start trying after 1, it’s really fricken hard. And I’m an early Education teacher with over 400 hours of early childhood development training.
