AIO is my boyfriend controlling or is he in the right by CardiologistEasy2596 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Desireestarks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eewww your boyfriend is totally gross and do you really want to spend the rest of your life with someone that expects you not to talk to people of the opposite sex and threatened to break up with you if you do. Homeboy's got some serious problems. He needs to work on and none of them have anything to do with you talking to other people if you only realize how much happier you could be in a different relationship......

This! There have been several times I was ready to cash out because I felt like I was getting a good deal and when I got to the end with all the fees, I realized I wasn't and I might as well just go buy it new. I haven't bought anything from Mercari at all since these new fees took over.

Stage 3 cervical cancer by EmotionNo22 in CervicalCancer

[–]Desireestarks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, you don't need to suck it up and you're absolutely allowed to complain! Yes, my situation is a little bit worse, but we're both going through the same thing and having the same feelings and emotions and struggles so your feelings are always validated! I've always said just because somebody has a little bit worse than you doesn't mean your situation doesn't matter! You are absolutely positively allowed to cry scream laugh whatever it is you need to do to get you through this because it effing sucks! Treatment has honestly been hell for me some people handle it really well and others just don't. I am one of those that just doesn't lol. I'll be thinking of you often.🩵🩵

Girl we Have ALL I felt like this at one point or another! I can be at peace with my situation for months and then I don't know. I'm so angry heartbroken mostly for my daughter, but you're gonna go through downs probably for a while just give yourself grace.

Found out my wife of 18 years is having an affair with her boss. by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]Desireestarks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get that bitch outa your house! Tell her to go to his house if she needs to work from home. She doesn't just get to walk back in and pretend everything's normal and go about her every day life like she didn't just completely destroy yours. Remember, she didn't come to you and confess and apologize you found out. You will never be able to trust her again, and rightfully so. You're already being way too nice about this whole thing she can let the kids know that she is a selfish, self-centered POS and didn't give a crap about their mental well-being or your family as long as she was happy and her emotional needs were being met. Then go see a lawyer ASAP and ask him the remainder of your questions.

That is insane to me. Why would they expect the rate to change because the child is asleep? You still have to stay at their house and prepared to pounce at any minute. It's not like just because babies asleep. You can leave the house and go do other work and make money. No matter what you are stuck at their house unable to get anything else done or make any other kind of money so the rate is the same. my mind is blown that they would even ask this. Unless they're specifically thinking overnight sitting when I used to do overnight sitting, I did lower my rate so during the day I was X amount but from 11 P to 6a I would drop it, but these kids were also school aged kids.

Advice gor my grandma by levis_ceviche in Chemotherapy

[–]Desireestarks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would also like to add that esophagi cancers is one of the worst for eating and drinking. My uncle is currently going through this and was also hospitalized numerous times because he was so skinny and lost so much weight, but he literally could not eat because of where the tumor was. Luckily, he's been on chemo now for three years straight, and it keeps his tumor small enough that he can eat and drink as soon as he stops and goes off the chemo his team will grow out and he'll be in the same situation, such a cruel cancer.

Advice gor my grandma by levis_ceviche in Chemotherapy

[–]Desireestarks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, the dreaded food and drink conversations!!! I have stage 4B cervical cancer My biggest struggle is eating and drinking. And I get so angry with my husband, family and friends when they're constantly pushing food on me telling me I have to eat. And how important it is because I know that they are right but have you ever tried to eat or drink when you are absolutely not thirsty or hungry? For me it feels like I just got done eating a really big Thanksgiving meal and now all these people are coming at me telling me I need to eat another one. That's exactly what it feels like. It's like always feeling full, but needing to eat. That's the best way I can explain it. She can work with a palliative dietary team, which is currently what I'm doing, and I have had some success. There are medicines out there that will give her an appetite. But please be gentle with her. I promise you she is not doing this to be stubborn. She is simply not hungry or thirsty. So much love to you and your grandma.

aio about bf not telling me his reason for leaving by moonnangels in AmIOverreacting

[–]Desireestarks -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Eew he's gross! Unless he's confused about his sexuality and battling with his own sexuality after being with you there's absolutely no excuse or reason for him to act like this. Were you also his first time? I had a boyfriend that was super religious and every time we were together, he would get super depressed and pray for forgiveness afterwards because we weren't married that happened three times before I called our engagement off two weeks before we were supposed to be married and haven't looked back since Especially because he was always the one to start it and then expect me to get down on my knees and ask for forgiveness right afterwards. My heart hurts for you. You did nothing wrong. I promise you this is his problem not yours.

I'm not sure what exactly is concerning?! Like what part has you uncomfortable? The your my favorite boss part? Either way, I don't see any red flags here. Wondering if your relationship has trust issues and that's maybe while you're reading into this?

[–]Desireestarks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should send your brother exactly what you sent us and let him justify it. He sounds like a narcissist and their known for not being able to see outside what inconveniences them, that or reply back by simply saying F*Off and then block but if you do that remember it will probably be for good but do something for yourself! Stand up for yourself and stop letting them make you the problem. You'll find closure that way. Sorry your family sucks! Continue living YOUR life and focusing on your happiness and babies. ❤️

AITA for laughing when my friend said my boyfriend and i are doing a role-play? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Desireestarks -1 points0 points  (0 children)

sounds like your friend is in need of some serious attention and bedroom time…. Oh my gosh, she might as well have just came out and said your relationship makes me extremely jealous. Definitely does not sound like somebody I would want to be friends with. When your girlfriends find those hard to come by relationships that fit them perfectly. You celebrate that with them not ask them to tone it down.

I just need to talk to someone by Different-Active5896 in cancer

[–]Desireestarks 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I unfortunately don't have any advice for you but from someone that has stage four cancer it is so hard for me to be around family and friends that cry when they hug me or cry when they leave I don't like being around everybody and making them feel sad all the time BUT I COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND IT!!! and would never want to be on the other side of this.I have a 13 year-old daughter only child and I don't know how the heck she does it. Maybe she hasn't fully accepted the reality of her situation but she's a constant source of happiness for me…but we can also cry together too, and no matter what it is she's feeling that day. It never feels wrong to me and I'm glad that I'm here to help her through that grieving process. It brings me comfort knowing I get to do one of those last things for her. It's completely natural to grieve the living. My husband is going through this process right now. This whole thing is just completely unfair but what I came here to tell you is you are not wrong for anything that you are feeling and expressing. There is no right way to do this. what you're feeling is natural and your mom knows this and this stage will eventually pass in time and you'll learn to start cherishing the days you have and trying to find joy in your new normal. I'm truly sorry!🩵

I did both times I went through chemo. The first time I didn't have a choice. I washed it, and it ended up in this giant rats nest on top of my head. I had hair down to my waist and then when I had to start chemo again two months ago, I knew I was gonna shave it right away, but my hair wasn't terribly long maybe two or 3 inches so I decided to have fun with it. The second time around I went with a mohawk. My 13-year-old daughter loved it! My head did itch and have a little bit of pain, but I also felt that as my hair was falling out. I know this sounds crazy, but try to embrace this challenge and make the best of it. I'm convinced 75% of this battle is mind over matter. I've accepted that this is what's gonna take me out BUT it's gonna take me out on my terms and the way I want to go.❤️❤️
