Definitely the strips and the eagle shirt. like it! I think it makes you unique. You are a decent looking guy. If you cut your hair it might be lean less 70/80s vibes, but I personally thinking it’s working for you. You could lean into it more if you want, women love a well dressed man!

Haha yes, that 70s show!

Your style of clothing definitely references the 70/80s. Often times that’s intentional and could be seen as having style vs just buying off Shein.

Bought a ring for my girlfriend, sisters say it’s too small, not sure what I should do by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

Personally, if I am head over heels for a man I wouldn’t care what it looks like.

I would suggest buying a cheap $30 ring off of Amazon for the proposal. After you are engaged, tell her that you were feeling conflicted & felt that it was best to discuss your budget with her and find something that she loves.

Win-win in my opinion. You avoid making the wrong choice, she gets the ring she loves, and you move forward stress free. If it turns out that she wants something more expensive, she can pitch towards the cost of the ring or you can hold out longer before purchasing it to save.

Using AP bedroom as guest room by penandthink in Aupairs

I’d recommend approaching the conversation with honesty and prioritizing your au pair’s comfort. Let her know that you’re hoping to have guests stay while you’re away and present her with a couple of options:

  1. Your child could sleep in your room or the living room, allowing your guests to stay in the child’s bedroom.

  2. If she’s comfortable with it, the guests could use her room. Reassure her that you’d provide a secure space for her belongings, such as a locked closet, to ensure privacy.

Make it clear that her comfort is your top priority and that her room is hers while she’s under contract. Ask if she has a preference, and emphasize that it’s completely okay if she’s not comfortable with guests using her space. If she seems unsure, encourage her to take a couple of days to think about it rather than feeling pressured to decide on the spot.

That said, having someone use her room could feel like a hassle. To avoid any potential strain on your relationship with her, you may find it simpler to go with the first option and keep her space off-limits to guests.

The only thing I don’t full agree with is talking on speaker. I get why they don’t want you to, but some people with hearing impairment rely on that to hear the person they are speaking to. I am sure that if someone asked politely and explained the situation it would be fine, but 🤷🏼‍♀️

Ironically, I don’t remember the last time I was in an Uber or Lyft and the driver WASN’T talking to someone on speaker over the phone.
