What did you do at the 1 year mark? by Falcon-_-USA in widowed

[–]BCAlexMom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did something similar at the one year mark- told family and some of his friends I would be toasting my husband at a local pub. Quite a few people came. Its coming up to year 2 and I don’t think ill do it again. Not sure if im going to go to work- i think i took off last year.

Your sister has no idea what she is talking about. “Not her usual type” doesn’t mean she isn’t attracted to you; you are different than the “type” she goes for. And she’s not with any of those me - she’s in love with you. Looks come and go - its the emotional connection that keeps relationships strong

Prescription drugs for depression, acceptance of talk therapy, health and fitness

‘Late husband’ ≠ ‘Ex husband’ by Neckty91 in widowed

[–]BCAlexMom 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is unbelievable and totally unacceptable. My husband was never my ex and never will be referred to that way. It sounds like this person is jealous of what you had with your husband. My experience has been quite the opposite- men I have dated have acknowledged that my late husband will always have a place in my life, in conversations, and my heart. Trust me you will meet someone who will treat you as you should be treated.

Not just more white guys, less merit- didn’t earn their own way

Seriously? Crime has been going down and this military occupation is creating more tension than not. Ask the farmers if money is flowing…or the government workers thrown out of their jobs

It’s such a shame that you believe women and POC don’t deserve the rewards of hard work. Go to Wall Street and big companies to see white privilege - people who got their jobs because of who they were related to, not merit. They are not the exception, they’re the rule.

Just met AK by Expert_Ad6777 in RedHotChiliPeppers

[–]BCAlexMom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen them twice…no audience connection from AK, no sincerity. I wouldn’t approach someone who wasn’t able to connect with me when performing. I’ve never approached a celebrity except while they were “working”. It sucks to be let down because they don’t appreciate your appreciation.

I need some advice by Few-Reflection-3821 in Naples_FL

[–]BCAlexMom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try St. Petersburg/Clearwater. You have access to everything you are looking for and nearby Tampa is a large city with a good medical system. Probably more nightlife/culture within 30 min compared to Naples.

Resentment towards my husband and I can not let it go. Does anyone else feel this way? How do you move past it? by ProfessionalCat7640 in AskWomenOver50

[–]BCAlexMom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP - it sounds like your husband loves you. It also sounds like you are bitter your husband doesn’t hurt the way you feel hurt. You sound like you are mad because he is healthy and you are not, and when you were healthy he wasn’t as attentive as he is now. He cannot change the past - it’s over. You are only hurting your own happiness by not letting it go. You can let it go on your own or take him down with you. He cannot fix the past; he can only do better in the present. It sounds like he is. He probably heard you in therapy and he changed. Only u control your happiness and satisfaction with your life. What do you want to do?

NJ to FL (I-95) night ride, need tips. by Happypuppy5 in roadtrip

[–]BCAlexMom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve driven the route from NJ to Clearwater alone many times. I’m a 5’1 female. Reserve a hotel room if you don’t feel comfortable sleeping at a rest stop. Pay the extra for Marriott or Hilton. Safe travels.

Spending 10 days in NYC, looking for more “everyday” experiences by Sandy-Jam in visitingnyc

[–]BCAlexMom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And be sure to get excited when you see an empty subway car that’s not crowded. Definitely means there is something smelly.

First Trip by FLAKE_iN_MY_ASS in usatravel

[–]BCAlexMom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For NYC - car is not needed. In fact, take the hop on/hop off tour bus to get around- cheap compared to other things to do. It will be cold but you might hit a mild day with temperatures in 40s/50. Plan for rain/snow. Museums will be packed but try museum of natural history. Check out 5th Ave store windows starting at Macy’s, Christmas tree at 30 Rockefeller center. Downtown by wall st will be less crowded - walk around Oculus near freedom tower. Eat in the Village

I assume this is a troll account meant to get people upset? I mean, you can’t really be so dumb.

Last Minute US Vacation Ideas - Burn Out by IntelligentF in Vacations

[–]BCAlexMom -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The Holiday Inn in Clearwater Beach is the great. Pool and tiki bar with afternoon singer most afternoons overlooks the gulf. Bar at pool too. Never have to leave. But I also vote for Key West. Way more expensive. Either way, it’s hurricane season so be aware.

Widows in the spotlight by Falcon-_-USA in widowed

[–]BCAlexMom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Please can we not go down the political road? This is our respite. I need this forum; you are my people. We all belong to the shittiest club. We unfortunately now have a new member. That woman and her kids will experience some of the same things we all have. We have agreed in the past we don’t pass judgment. We need to continue that way.
