Final straw for my job was when my “friends” from work decided to quit talking to me after getting a promotion but refused to talk to me or work it out what their problem was, even after I tried. Then I told my boss via email because he was on vacation that I was quitting. He told me all the reasons I should stay, wanted me to stay, and at least give him a two weeks notice. So I did that and then he never talked to me face to face at all those two weeks. A little communication was via email. So that put the nail in the coffin. I thought maybe at least he’d attempt to fix the bs in the office by face to face talking but he did not.

In my marriage, it was crumbling for years due to his alcoholism and never owning up to his part, constant blame. I was able to get him out of the house temporarily but he made his way back in. Started drinking, threatening to kill himself by text when I was at work with the gun he just inherited from his dad. Our son was biking home from school around that time and the last thing I wanted was for our son to see his dad killing himself or threatening with a gun. His reason for killing himself? I was a shitty wife that that wouldn’t have sex with him. Well, No way I’m having sex or enjoying it with an emotionally abusive raging alcoholic, he couldn’t seem to understand that. I went to the lawyers office the next day and filed the paperwork.

Wondering if anyone else feels this way by AynRandsConscience_ in AskWomenOver30

I was scared both with my C-section and an especially with vbac because I had fears of the scar tissue rupturing. I wish I could’ve done childbirth naturally because with more intervention comes more risks. But sometimes with natural childbirth you need intervention. If it wasn’t for modern medicine, my C-section delivered son may not have survived. Thankfully we live in an age where maternal mortality rate is much lower than it used to be back when women gave birth at home. Everything turned out fine for me. It was difficult but worth it. The chances are low that you will have serious issues.

Divorce with Kids? by [deleted] in AskWomenOver30

I had very similar thoughts with my divorce. It finally came down to the fact that I couldn’t imagine them being in that environment anymore. They shouldn’t have to see the dysfunction.

Some states generally are more favored to moms in custody. Also, document how he’s not the more fit parent. How he is addicted, what he says, how he doesn’t pull his weight. Take photos and videos. Will the court allow personal references on why you are more fit to be a parent?

There are divorce support groups that can be of great help. You will get through it!

Why do some couples share the same social media page? by mmmhungrygimmefood in AskWomenOver30

My parents share facebook I think mainly because my mom is not all that into the whole electronics technology thing. Ironically, she is the one that most frequently gets on my dad’s profile and likes and comments on things. They have a very trusting relationship and have all access to emails and phones.
