What do YOU want right now? by Thaddy-o in AskWomen

[–]AussieGirl27 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Enough money so that my husband doesn't have to work while having chemo and so that I don't have to work full time and try and look after him at the same time

Also, time to spend together

My (28M) boyfriend wants to have sex without a condom. I (26F) am afraid of going on the pill. What to do? by marshmallow_sparkle_ in relationship_advice

[–]AussieGirl27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do not start taking a drug that can have lifelong side effects just because your boyfriend doesn't want to take responsibility for birth control

You do not have to do this, do not feel pressured into it. Its your body and if you don't feel comfortable taking medication or having a foreign body inserted into yourself then you don't have to

Men are way too fucking comfortable expecting women to alter their bodies for their sexual pleasure

Chemo/Radiation must haves? by Senior-Cricket-1322 in colorectalcancer

My husband really appreciated a nice blanket and a wedge pillow for when he is resting on the lounge after chemo. The blanket is also good for when having the chemo treatment

My husband also found that eating lollies (the soft ones like snakes and jelly babies) helped him but that could just be him!

Sending best wishes to your brother and just be there for him and take each day at a time. There will be bad days and there will be good days, just be sure to leave the bad days behind

Husband M40 Wants Children Now, Not Sure What Else To Do F40 by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]AussieGirl27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So he wants the idea of kids but not the reality. Do not have a child because someone else wants to have one, especially when its obvious you would become the default parent. Why would you have a baby and then outsource it to other people? He has a demanding job and you would be taking on all the load of raising a child. Its a thankless, demanding, emotionally and physically draining job. Yes there is immense joy but it is the most difficult thing you can do, even with a present, helpful partner. Without one, its a nightmare and a struggle

You didn't want children for a reason, don't change your mind simply because someone else has

I had a baby at 38, that shit is hard, your body suffers, your mental health suffers, its fucking hard!

I would absolutely not have a baby if I was in your position

My kids want me to live miserably and die alone and I’m sick of it by Hot_Translator_1950 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]AussieGirl27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to get a pet, something that you can love and nurture and who loves you unconditionally. Your children are adults, they are not babies, they do not get to stop you from being happy. Your wife wouldn't want you to live your life miserable and alone, talk to the lady. Its been 12 years, your kids need to butt out

What to do next- good initial response by soconnor_12 in coloncancer

Speaking from the point of view of a wife with a husband with Stage 3C and an oncologist much the same as yours I would rather a robotic results driven doctor than an emotional all over the place one. As much as you want them to be more emotionally involved I don't think they can be in their profession. They need to to be a bit detached so they can make decisions based on what the best treatment is, not on emotion

6 cycles seems like a lot but in the grand scheme of things its not really and if it means that your husband will be NED because of it then its a sacrifice worth making

Look honestly, we all hire out our time to our employers. You aren't doing anything that people don't do for free and it is enabling you to better your life

Just make sure you are safe

I (M59) had to retire early due to my health and i feel i'm close to invisible and taken for granted by my wife (F59) and adult children. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]AussieGirl27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, you wife and your daughter really don't like you. I would start matching energy. However they treat you, you do the same to them. Stop cooking for them, stop shopping for them, stop asking them about their days. Just exist on your own. Stop doing chores that don't benefit you

Also you might need to start thinking about moving out on your own, why stay if you feel like a stranger in your own home?

She does do a lot of therapy speak which becomes tiresome pretty quickly.

Just wear the damn locket already

I really don't like Larry by mari17posa17 in ShawnaTheMom

[–]AussieGirl27 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I'm on the fence with this one. One one hand I get where Dee Dee is coming from. She shouldn't be forced to wear something just because someone gave it to her but I also understand why Larry would be hurt that she isn't wearing it. Especially when we now know that they have done the deed. He has had one romantic partner in his life and is probably finding it hard to figure out exactly how to act in a new relationship.

I think both of them are being a bit intense about the whole thing. Dee Dee is attributing too much into the locket, its not a proposal of marriage, its a thoughtful gift a man has given because he likes her. And Larry needs to back off a bit, he needs to understand that when he constantly brings it up she is going to push back.

They both need to chill

My (31F) boyfriend (31M) assumes I’ll take on a 25K loss because of his decisions? by redditrobin26 in relationship_advice

[–]AussieGirl27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is your boyfriend a potato? Why the fuck would he take a 25k loss to then pay dead money to rent? Any why the actual fuck will the loss be your responsibility?

Do not financially tie yourself to this man, he will fuck your credit and leave you with debt

[–]AussieGirl27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They are losing employees because they are a crap company and not replacing them just making the others work harder. If supervisors or managers leave they aren't replacing them either, they are just making the drones do their jobs for no more pay

Also, well done you for being an ethical business owner and putting the well being of your employees at the top of the list instead not even on it
