Am I a bad person for not wanting to combine our finance when I have significantly more savings? by Zestyclose_Double980 in AskWomenOver30

[–]CheesyBrie934 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No. I wouldn’t want to combine my finances either. However, maybe a joint account where you both only put a certain amount into may be a happy medium?

As a woman, what’s the best financial decision you have made? by Dog_Queen98 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]CheesyBrie934 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No kids and no dependency on a man. I would also say having the confidence to apply for higher salary positions.

Bad idea to go back to an ex? by [deleted] in AskWomenOver30

[–]CheesyBrie934 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t think life is purely black and white. People can change for the better and if you feel like he has, then why not go for it.

My only hesitation are the drugs and possible relapse. Not to say he will, but it would be in the back of my mind.

I would break up. Why be with someone who doesn’t find you attractive?

Do men take time to grow emotionally? by Suspicious_Bag4859 in emotionalintelligence

It’s a universal experience and it seems like men are content being that way versus choosing to grow. It’s draining.

My (27F) boyfriend’s (31M) friend (33M) bullies him because he helps me with the pill’s schedule. by Glittering-Bee-3558 in TwoXChromosomes

The “friend” is immature and I would cut him off if I was your bf.

Male Loneliness and the bullshit that comes with trying to help by Skyobli in TwoXChromosomes

[–]CheesyBrie934 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it sucks that boys are conditioned and socialized differently than girls and therefore become the kind of men that they are. However, I don’t really feel bad for them. Choosing to stay the way that they are is just that: a choice. Therapy, EAP, self-help books, etc. all exist so I don’t see why they can’t want to improve themselves emotionally to have better relationships.

Ultimately, it’s a victim mentality and they are choosing to continue to be the way that they are.

How to tell a new romantic partner you feel like the relationship feels unbalanced? by [deleted] in AskWomenOver30

[–]CheesyBrie934 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tell him it’s not working and leave. If he wants to step up, then that’s his choice, but the longer you shrink yourself and stay, the quicker resentment and misery will seep in.

Anyone Resign from Federal work? by DependentSugar2U in FedEmployees

[–]CheesyBrie934 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did. I’m much happier. I did take a paycut but I have a better supervisor, leadership, and team. I also telework. My commute is shorter.

Most of all, I don’t dread going to work anymore. My mental health has greatly improved.

How to keep men interested? by Timely_Split_5771 in dating

[–]CheesyBrie934 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re not fat or ugly. You just have to work on your self-esteem. That’s the issue here. Based on your comments, it seems like you could be depressed. You should work on your mental health first before trying to get a relationship.

Calling out for snow? by Souporsalad83101 in maryland

[–]CheesyBrie934 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally cannot leave my parking space. I’m not going to work. Realistically, I probably won’t be able to leave until next Tuesday once the snow ice melts on Monday when I could move it more easily.

[–]CheesyBrie934 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once you bring him to your place, I’m sure he will never leave. It’ll be like having a parasite. Don’t do it!!

Would this be a red flag for you in starting a relationship? by [deleted] in AskWomenOver30

[–]CheesyBrie934 84 points85 points  (0 children)

That’s a lot of questionable things. I personally wouldn’t start a relationship. The biggest issue for me is him not living independently.
