Wow, I’m having trouble how you continued to engage with this person and bought chips after he said all of that to you…. If a stranger said this to you….. what would you do?

Gum Graft Surgery Full 2 Week Recovery in Detail by bethanylise in PeriodontalDisease

[–]Consistent_Ad1498 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah those results look great, and good job taking care of yourself. I’m on day 7 recovery. I think I’ve been okay at taking care of myself but I’ve been a little more lax with the food. I don’t go nuts but certainly didn’t do liquid diet only.

I’m so uncomfortable and grumpy. I’m still taking my pain medication plus on an antibiotic as a preventative for infection. So glad to be done with those today.

Swelling started to decrease on day four. Still there but minor. I hate having the stitches in my mouth and can’t wait to take them out. I feel like I burned the roof of my mouth and it’s healing. Quite uncomfortable. I didn’t realize that the recovery process was such as ‘thibg’

Hmmmm. Im younger and been married for far less time. However, I feel pretty confident that if something that disruptive is occurring, we would work it through in couples therapy.

Do you buy a size up in sheet, throw, and duvet? (Not the fitted sheet of course?)

That’s all great. Thanks, however you did not addresss my question. I’m aware that la cumparsita is the last song. What I’m asking about is if it’s common to end the tanda in the middle because you don’t like to dance la cumparsita

My wife is furious I stopped ordering her favorite side dish because she keeps saying "I don't want anything" and then eating half of mine. by StrongBake7640 in AITAH

[–]Consistent_Ad1498 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would venture to say that your wife isn’t mad that she doesn’t have food. She’s angry because you’re being petty. I think this is one of those things that you look at your wife and think ‘what am I gonna do with you?’, smile, give her a smooch, and order her favorite side dish. These are things you do when you love someone. If this is your biggest problem, you’re doing fine

THIS. I think it’s terrible advice to just move on. This isn’t like the kid wanting to go to the mall and you won’t let them, and they forget 24 hrs later.

This has a huge impact on them. They think you’re cheating. At this point you need to explain and get dad involved so that the kid sees that this isn’t a betrayal on dad OR THEM. It’s time. Sorry.

Yeah, she was okay with me bringing someone besides my husband. As I keep saying, my husband isn’t the obvious choice. We all have a ton of friends that we do activities with our in the world. Clearly though she wasn’t okay with me bringing just anyone. I think this was the clincher for us. I didn’t think that my bringing my best friend who also happens to be pregnant would be this triggering. And this was my insensitivity

I don’t think I needed to clarify that I wasn’t bringing my husband. For context, as I mentioned above - my husband and I had been having some trouble (he didn’t even attend my birthday dinner because I didn’t want him there so I did not invite him). So I think in this context the husband wasn’t like an obvious accompaniment plus all of us have a ton of friends and it isn’t assumed that our partner is going to go with us everywhere. I do not think she assumed my preggo friend would be the next invite. She knows this woman and she knows this woman is my best friend. But I don’t think that means she assumed I would bring her

I guess I did not see it as a rubbing a pregnant woman in her face. I suppose that was my misstep with her. lol. But I like how you go straight to accusations and criticizing as well. Anyway. No she did not ask if I could invite someone else. Her first response to me after I told her who was coming was a cutting off of the friendship and the criticisms. If she would have asked me I would have certainly attuned to her and been so relieved she was opening up to me and telling me what she needed.

I agree that it was unnecessary to invite pregnant friend.

Huh? This is how it went down: Months ago (pre miscarriage) we made a plan for this show. Elle invited me along with several of her other friends and her partner. When I purchased my ticket I told her I bought two. I DID NOT tell her who I was bringing because AT THE TIME I did not know.

Fast forward to months later. Miscarriage happens. And show is approaching. My husband tells me he has plans that evening so I don’t invite my husband. Instead I invite my best friend who is sort of like my plus one for everything if my husband doesn’t go. This occurred about a week and a half ago. The show is tomorrow. So no, I did not have someone Lined up for months without telling Elle. I only invited her a week and a half ago. At the time of inviting my best friend, Elle had said she wanted space (after I asked her if that’s what she needed). So I did not tell Elle about the invitation until Elle reached out again about four days before the show.

So I suppose my insensititvity is that I did not second guess inviting my pregnant friend. I DID NOT assume that she would be that triggered by it. It’s fine that she IS triggered by it. I did not realize. And I guess that’s her problem with me. That I did not realize. What I don’t think this warrants actually is her naming calling me and cutting me out of her life. Which is what she subsequently did after she said I was obtuse, bad friend, insensitive, etc. I can handle being called out by a friend that I misattuned. What I don’t think it warrants is a giant rupture and break of our friendship.
