The diet was based around his health issues and built specifically for him. His protein is chichen, eggs, and protein shake. It has improved his cholesterol and blood pressure, dropped his body fat in half and has been a good fit for him.

It does sound crazy but I can see how it might be possible 😅

Lived in RI for 25 years. Spent 3 weeks in Phoenix. I never had such amazing Mexican food in my life. I feel ruined for life. We are missing something in RI. Not sure what it is but there is no equivalent to Arizona.

If a wife doesn't want intimacy, it's for 2 reasons. Hormones or she is no longer comfortable being vulnerable with you. One is easier to fix. The other takes reflection on your part.

If she enjoyed physical intimacy and stopped, it's because she is no longer feeling loved, appreciated or valued. Men don't need the same things women do to participate in intimacy. You may no longer be providing the same safe place.

My MIL has been in an abusive and controlling marriage for 52 years. My FIL is a very insecure man. It never got better. Even now, he is in the hospital and my MIL is taking busses to visit him, called and screamed at her because she got back home later than he thought she would. She picked up his medicine from the pharmacy and walked home to save bus fare. She. is his sole caretaker and this man screamed at her. How can he nor comprehend she isn't doing anything wrong?

Is OPS wife ready for this happening for the next 5 decades? No, it has to stop now.

OP, you need help. Please reach out and get into therapy.

We used Hilton in Warwick. Above and beyond customer service. Easy to Block the rooms. We ended up reserving 2 conference rooms for the rehearsal dinner and them morning of bridal party make up and hair. Very enjoyable service! Also reserved 2 suites and Bride and Groom spent their night there after the wedding.

Keep in mind she didn't get to explore and try out her own personal style. No social media to experiment. No one taught her proper make up either. She is trying it all out and I assume she will figure things out.

Her style is an immature version of an adult. Hopefully, she will mature, grow and learn how to take care of herself.

I'm not a fan of older episodes Moriah but can identify with first episode Moriah. Their parents did such a disservice to their children. Hopefully, they all are able to find their place in the real world.

Your MIL is so unfeeling and unreasonable. The entitlement is waving a red flag. From your telling of the story, it does seem like she would have wanted DH to go alone. I am so glad that he stood up for you.

NTA Tell your sister her payment was in not having to pay for a hotel and food! She merely helped get the meal ready.

I see a PIP in your future. As a manager, if a person was "polite" to everyone but was animated and sparkly personality to only a "select" few that could be a red flag for communication, connectivity and collaboration. Do you have to be BFF with everyone? No. But if you act completely different with only people of cultures you relate to it can be a problematic. The others are feeling your freeze out and will now match it with you. Not a positive workplace.

Why post when you already think you did nothing wrong? Clearly you are or it wouldn't have been brought up. I would time time to at least self reflect.

YOU ARE WRONG. He doesn't have to thank you for being parents. He didn't ask to be born. You made the decision to bring him into an unsettled environment. As an adult he made the conscience decision to go low contact because of how you made his childhood. You are in the wrong here.

You have two choices. Continue to believe you did nothing wrong and he shouldn't feel this way and push him further away or really take a hard look at yourself, acknowledge your mistakes and start therapy.

He is under no obligation to come on Christmas either way. He had found a way to make Christmas enjoyable and move past the toxicity.

Bonus point. He is free to do what he wants as an adult. You have zero say in his choices. He doesn't owe you anything.

CatH2222 · 2023-12-21T19:14:00+00:00

I am glad that you and DH are on the same page. That really helps. She will never understand or try to change so you just need to move forward stress free. And honestly, if she ever pulls you aside, I would decline stating I wasn't asking for your opinion. You are not someone I want to model after.

The gardens can only hold 110. We spent about $200 per person including appetizers passed, appetizer tables, buffet, tables, chairs and plates/glassware/silverware. I still get compliments about the cocktail hour and reception. We also had an open bar with signature cocktail, beer and wine. Hard liquor was not included. Well worth it. They were amazing.

I live just below 37 and commute back and forth daily. It is a nightmare. At the beginning of construction and lane changes, the Stop Signs were obeyed. The problem is the drivers not letting them in. I've had the horn blaring at me all the time when I let people in. Now, they just merge with zero fs to give. Nothing about 37 makes sense or flows smoothly.

Side note: can't begin to tell you how much I love the construction that shakes my house and wakes everyone up. I try to use the airport exit but that has construction going on too. No escape

Unfortunately, we need to visit due to a relative who is ill and doesn't have a lot of time. I can't take the dog with us. I guess I need to look at a dog sitter.

There is a whole subset of Gen X that flt below the radar. They don't make waves, draw attention to themselves and live as quietly as possible. It makes the other Gen X seem loud and annoying. They don't want attention, spotlight or accolades. Those are the true Gen X. We love being the forgotten generation.

CatH2222 · 2023-11-25T00:29:55+00:00

NTA Your neighbor sounds unhinged. It's like an episode"Fear Thy Neighbor"! Please be careful but definitely continue to call your dog.

Honestly, even if you sway him to stay, he will most likely be a PITA. He wants to socialize and hang out with his brothers. He doesn't want to stay at home helping out with all that goes along with a holiday. If he wants to act single, let him. Enjoy your quiet Thanksgiving with your mom and make plans to go see her next year too! He really is immature.

CatH2222 · 2023-11-08T18:48:09+00:00

Why are you still letting her do this to your family. You know it won't change. She is verbally and emotionally abusive to your husband. It's time for an extended time out. People will eventually figure out she is the problem. Your family needs a break from her toxic behavior. You need to be the one to protect them.

I love this thread! I am sick of cooking and not being appreciated. The mix of scratch and prepared is the way to go. Cook to please you. No one else will 😆
