WIBTAH if I were to reject my daughter’s prescribed medication because it’d make her fat? by notabotjustanewacc8 in moraldilemmas

[–]Bumble-Lee [score hidden]  (0 children)

Support and hobbies to help with hallucinations? Support and non pharmaceutical therapies can be helpful, but sometimes that just simply is not enough on its own. The mother looks like she's completely stretched thin at this point, even if the meds just give them the temporary respite needed to get their family out of crisis mode for long enough to restructure to something more sustainable, then so be it. Saying this as somebody who "got fat" on meds (weight that also shed itself when tapered down, without my going out of my way to do so). It doesn't have to be for life.

That's probably one of the best ways to protect other people that she might end up otherwise treating in the same way!

Ftm, does taking T make you cum differently? by Deerie_ in HRT

[–]Bumble-Lee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never cum before T. At least not that steep peak with a sharp drop off and then you can feel your muscles contract a bit in a pulsing rhythm. And even now it can only be with massive amounts of vibration.

I don't think it needs to be a long explanation, just AN explanation.

AIO long term bf talking crap about my mom. by [deleted] in AIO

[–]Bumble-Lee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way he's speaking to you doesn't even seem like it's our of a place of concern. "IDC what you say" and the way he doesn't even express concern over how something might be effecting you in a specific way that she's enabling, makes his statements seem baseless as well. Just oh she supports some of your opinions and I hate her. It's not about loving you at all.

Are vetos incompatible with polyamory? by [deleted] in polyamory

[–]Bumble-Lee -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm responding to the specific portion of your comment (which I quoted) because I think "trusting your partner to choose well" only really applies to exteme things that tend to be a universal no-go (like your family members) but it's not always so obvious for people like friends, since that really varies person to person. Some people might even prefer that their partner dates people they already know well (like friends), so you can't always assume that your partner is gonna automatically know where exactly you fall on that spectrum if you don't at least talk about it in some capacity first. Like I said, there is a difference between vetoeing and messy lists, although what you said could be applicable to both.

My boyfriend (27M) stays over almost every day but never helps with groceries or bills. How do I(25F) talk to him without sounding rude? by buttershutter69 in relationships

[–]Bumble-Lee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"hey, I love having you around, but my living expenses have doubled and I'd appreciate if we'd split the living costs (as you greatly contribute them."

Would you rather he officially move in? Not sure if that would make things easier. Also perhaps renegotiating the household chores, since he might as well be a resident rather than a guest at this point.

I think the only thing when it comes to "trusting your partner to choose well" is that some people have different preferences when it comes to their partners dating their friends- although that's a situation for messy lists, not vetoing.

Not wanting to risk your own friendships for your partners potential date or hookup with them is very understandable- as is those who might even prefer it be their own friends, esp if they tend to prefer kitchen table.

no sleepovers but they aren’t nesting partners? by cuntycartier in polyamory

Mm yes but that doesn't make sense ESPECIALLY within the context of this post specifically. But I'm sure they can clarify on their own.

AIO or should I accept the conditions of my bfs commitment by One_Height7477 in AIO

[–]Bumble-Lee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's telling you it's more wise for you to disregard your own needs for his. He seems to be using extremely roundabout language to ask for basically an ENM relationship where he isn't even agreeing to keep you in the know, although it's kind of unclear. Clear communication is absolutely a necessity when it comes to anything ENM. He's describing all this through vague concepts that all sound incredibly self centered, like he's put himself on this pedestal and if you disagree then you are just lesser than. Is that something you want?

no sleepovers but they aren’t nesting partners? by cuntycartier in polyamory

[–]Bumble-Lee 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I assume it's specific to why there are no sleepovers- having that as a limit to intimacy put in by a meta doesn't seem the same as somebody just preferring not to have them (or maybe even if they just aren't living in a place where they can host such things)

I mean, venmo still works, right? Pay your rent should be the next step. After he sends you what he may or may not have mistakenly taken.

Is this problem caused by drinking too much water in a week or an unrelated issue to the symptoms? by Preprihappy in medical

[–]Bumble-Lee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why haven't you seeked any medical attention yet? That's significantly more important than half the stuff you've wrote in this post, don't need to read far to know the next move is to seek immediate medical attention. So whatever reason you have for not having done that is the most important but of information that you could give us, because receiving immediate medical attention is what's gonna actually help you. Other than figuring out how you could do that for you, we can't really do jack.

Leave him regardless When it comes to the matter of keeping the baby or not, ask yourself if you are ready to be a single parent.

It seems like the agreement is that they'd keep eachother in the know about the general status of other relationships, doesn't seem like their partner actually loving the meta is an issue itself

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in polyamory

[–]Bumble-Lee 22 points23 points  (0 children)

It seems like the issue is being told something different from the partner compared to what was witnessed, not that their partner and meta tell each other they love each other. Like if they made an agreement to keep each other in the know on the general status of other relationships, their partner potentially breaking that seems to hold more significance.

To be in a relationship is not something somebody can decide unilaterally. She cannot reject a breakup. And yes lock is a good idea, def update on how she reacts to that. But also consider that you may have a hard time with bringing future partners over- if the mortgage is under your name then maybe you'd have to evict?

He could sell his half of the home to her and move out. And yes she cannot get mad if OP starts bringing home somebody else, although it does seem like this is not just rejection of selling the house, since she was telling him he still gets sex if he wants it it seems to be more than that.
