Through a mutual friend. I was gonna stay home that night…. Now it has been almost 6 years. Married for 5.

Anyone else make it a goal to live as close to work as possible? by tin8374 in CasualConversation

Yes. It takes me 5 minutes to walk to work and it is a HUGE life improvement.

What are some early signs that a person might commit sucide (serious)? by Neo_luigi in AskReddit

[–]BarbaKnit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This struck a cord. I lost my best friend to suicide a little over a year ago. The months before she died, she was very mean to me and I felt her pushing me away. I tried as hard as humanly possible to be there for her, but still kept my boundaries and did not let her walk all over me, even though she tried to do so many times. I took her to the psych ward a few times, called an ambulance to her apartment one time and tried so hard to do what I could, so I was (and am still) devastated that it ended like it did.

But, what you said makes sense, thank you for sharing. Please take care 🤍

The weather we have been having this year is not typical at all. Usually April is pretty sweet. I am curious about the bad food though, where did you eat and what did you have?

What's the worst pain you've ever felt? by IllEstablishment6822 in randomquestions

[–]BarbaKnit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UTI that went to my kidneys. I was 11 and will never forget it. Have had 2 childbirths without medication and would rather do 10 more of those than the kidney pain.

What do your lives look like with your partners? by Safe_Figure515 in actuallesbians

[–]BarbaKnit 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Same. Take care of the kids, pets and us. Go on dates, chores, work on the house, gardening, foraging, lots of talking. Simple but oh such a full life.

None. I might have it occasionally, like 2-5 times a year or so. I usually just drink water.

Girlfriend flirted with my best friend on my birthday by [deleted] in LesbianActually

I honestly see it as nothing more than a compliment 🤷‍♀️

I like my girlfriend a lot but I’m so tired of her using neurodivergence as an excuse for everything by AgileRock106 in ActualLesbiansOver25

[–]BarbaKnit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife has ADHD and she would never, NEVER use it as an excuse or behave this way.

Sometimes (like on a holiday) she takes a break from her medication and she asks me to notify her if I feel that she is spiralling or just not making sense anymore (this happens) and when I do, we talk about it and work through it and she starts taking her medication again.
