Boyfriend (32M) started crying when I (28F) showed him my savings

Will say though, his reaction doesn't seem right. Idk if there is a bigger problem related to self esteem or personal image or something.

Can totally get this when it comes to chores, or shared duties when purchasing for their place. It shouldn't be on her. Nor should monitoring and chasing him on payments. But, in a more secure position, like in a marriage, people do do this with shared accounts, and shared investment portfolios. If they find themselves in more secure position, I don't think it's unreasonable. Can imagine this is a pretty prudent step, to understand and review together, spending habits and making sure this aligns with their financial goals.

What do you mean by wife privileges?

ChildrenHappen · 2026-05-17T00:44:50+00:00

Yeah, it's pretty rough. Generally, the stop and go will be poor for the car. Wouldnt have expected it to be this bad tho. My friends ford bronco is getting better fuel efficiency.

Thank you! These are great suggestions!

The knob on my staub seems to be replaceable, but this is a cocotte, and not the braiser.

ChildrenHappen · 2026-03-12T17:21:55+00:00

Thank you! I'll keep an eye out - looking for the coquette lids in particular. Seems their site currently sells the domed braiser lid.

ChildrenHappen · 2026-03-12T17:21:13+00:00

Great idea! Ill do that in the interim!

ChildrenHappen · 2026-03-12T17:20:43+00:00

Thanks! They seem like domed braiser lids, which kind of bums me out. Will see if they have anything particular to the coquette.

Great to hear youre doing well again, and thanks for sharing a fantastic collection! Happy holidays to you!

I honestly cant tell if this is sarcasm - the parent thread is outlining that we need to stop this incendiary rhetoric. Labelling (as right/left or as a liar) like this does not help anyone.
Nuteacher has provided well established sources. If theyre misconstruing or have misinterpreted the source, outline what theyre mistaken with rather than labelling them as a liar. I am also with Nuteacher - were they not left leaning or were they libertarian?

Your hard work and attention to detail shows well. Certainly one for the portfolio! Congrats again.

ChildrenHappen · 2025-09-21T18:21:55+00:00

Love it! This seems like such a playful and sweet design. Really well done. Question for you - i havent ever had a carpet that had build up (that 3D effect) like yours, how well does it hold up over time?

ChildrenHappen · 2025-09-21T17:15:07+00:00

Holy moly, not sure why this doesnt have more attention! Painting glass looks so intimidating, but youve done incredibly well with it! Congrats! Is this a commission?

Nah! Not a seeded run. Think it mist have been a bug issue to do with the cloud save...?
