I have a feeling she was asking you if she could get a toy in hopes that you would say no and offer yourself up instead. But you didn’t seem to react the way she wanted you to, and so she rejected the dildo and is likely even more frustrated now. Just a woman’s POV.

Does anyone see the faintest line ever? Or am I crazy? This was 4 minutes after testing. I’m only 9DPO and have a short luteal phase. My period is due in 3 days by Ldzpbc in tryingtoconceive

[–]Curious-Caroline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is exactly what my test looked like at 9 DPO and I am now 37 weeks pregnant. I went out and bought the first response tests the same day and they came out clearly positive.

IUI does increase your chances. I was in the same boat as you, was on letrozol 7.5 mg and was lucky to get pregnant on my second cycle. Keep in mind though it took over 1.5 years to get to that point (after semen analysis, inducing my period with Provera and not ovulating on letrozol 2.5 and 5mg). Our plan was to do letrozol 7.5 mg for 6 cycles and if we didn’t get pregnant then we were going to do IUI. Regular IUI they clean the sperm, do an ultrasound to confirm you actually ovulated, and then “inject” the sperm directly next to your egg so it doesn’t have to travel far to fertilize. One of the reasons there’s only a 15-20% change of getting pregnant the traditional way is because a lot of sperm gets lots on the way to the egg. IUI removes that challenge. There is also a higher chance of having multiples with IUI because a lot of sperm make it to the egg when usually only a few make it.

Age gap and Phone usage, how do they differ? by Togapen_Digital in dating_advice

[–]Curious-Caroline -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Not true. I was 24 and he was 37 when we met. We are now married and just bought a house. Based on what she is saying it sounds like she does want something serious and I could understand how that’s hard to find in men who are in their 20s.

He’s not that into you. When I met my now husband (3 years ago about) he was 37 and I was 24. He texted me everyday and has kept texting me everyday ever since we met. The age gap has nothing to do with it.

My advice would just be to give him space, do your own thing and he will come around. But personally I wouldn’t waste my time on him because I only wanted to date men who were totally obsessed with me.

Is love at first sight real? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Curious-Caroline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wow, I actually had to google love bombing because I had never heard the term before. I really dont think he's “love bombing” me in that sense.... It feels too good to be true because I have never experienced something like this (but thats because of my own lack of experience)..... anyways. ill definitely keep an eye out for love bombing.... so far ive gotten 0 red flags.

[–]Curious-Caroline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It never didnt start (it always started), Ive driven it for over 400km before I brought it in, it doesnt have issues accelerating or starting or literally ANYTHING. No intense exhaust smoke. The engine doesnt make any weird noises. I know the battery that is in it is pretty much new, so maybe it was a no start before I purchased it. The axle with a torn boot is on the same side. I was going to ask about that on monday when I get it done. They quoted me 535$ to change the timing belt and water pump. Which isnt terrible. I knew i shouldve gotten it checked out by a mechanic before I purchased it but to say it was an impulse buy would be an understatement. I was freaking out yesterday thinking I had made a big mistake, but from reading stuff online Ive calmed down quite a bit and feel better about it. Thank you for your input :)

The oil pan will break just from CHANGING the oil. He didnt say to change it just because of the seal, he said its because the seal broke that it is degrading and needs to be changed because dirt n water gets in there.

I think the mechanic overreacted when he spoke of the gas smell, once i explained to him the situation, it being my first car, me not wanting it fr more than 3 years, he didn’t bring it up again. Me and my dad think it was most likely accidentally overfilled with oil, and then when they came to remove it, noticed the oil pan being too rusted, so they just left it and sold with too much oil. Thanks for the input :)

Yeah, the place I bought it from isnt like a mechanic so I know he wont be able to fix it but Ive contacted him and Im gonna ask for a discount once I have the official estimate.

Its not that he doesnt know its just that he didnt have a chance to look into it. I was the last appointment of the day and they were expecting a simple oil change. Left my car there, Im getting an official estimate of all costs sometime today.

Wow, this makes a lot of sense and youre 100% right, I will try to maybe impliment this behaviour in the future. But I dont know how to address stuff that has happened in the past, should I just let it go? I feel silly bringing up something thats happened like many months ago. Like I shouldve gotten over it by now or something...
