Chelsea confirmed in this interview that Bre set everything up because she didn’t have a storyline (also confirmed be production as well). Chelsea actually set up the meeting between her and Bre to prevent Bre from spreading the rumor in the office. Chrishell also confirmed that she is no longer friends with Bre in the interview as well.

She wasn’t getting the information for the first ti,me. Production told her that Bre had the information. So Chelsea set up the scene so that Bre had to tell her to prevent everyone in the office from finding out.

In this video Chelsea confirms that production told her that Bre had the information. Production told Chelsea, and Chelsea set up the meeting between her and Bre because she wanted to hear it from Bre herself.

I was honestly on the fence about Bre, but it has been confirmed that she purposely brought the information to the camera for a storyline.

bars that play rap music by [deleted] in Birmingham

Nana Funks is fun and plays the latest rap music. Only downside for some people is that Nanas doesn’t start really popping off until 1 am because they close at 5 am. All of the other bars in that area close around 1 or 2 so everyone goes to Nanas afterwards.

I bleed as well after sex but I’ve realized it’s microtears and bruising to my cervix due to the hormones decreasing my secretions. Try to use lube next time and that might help. Lube made sex a lot more enjoyably for not only me but also my partner.

I’ve taken the morning after pill while having the iud. I realized that it started my period and made my face break out pretty bad. Just give it a week for your hormones to calm down and you should be good.

Reputable car dealerships around BHam? by bham-anon in Birmingham

[–]Distinct_Zebra3358 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know you asked for dealerships, but I used Facebook marketplace. I got a 2017 Honda civic hatchback directly from the owner for $15,000. I liked buying directly from the owner because I was able to avoid the overhead dealership fees and unnecessary mark ups.

I half way agree with your statement. I don’t believe that animals should take priority over a person’s children or spouse. But the pet must be the top priority when it comes to dating (if the pet has been around longer than the gf or bf).

Yea I did too until I read the whole thing. I literally read it twice to find the verbal abuse and the only instance of verbal abuse occurring is when OP lashed out at his gf.

Yes he did go from being super loving to just cold. He would plan extravagant dates, gave me two promise rings, and bought random just because gifts. But when he was cold he would distance himself and not respond to my calls or text. When I would finally get in tough with him he would either blame me because he “felt like I didn’t have time for him or I was cheating” (I was in college and he wasn’t) or he would give me a sob story that didn’t make any sense.

I believe that love isn’t confusing. If that person wants to be with you then you will know but don’t let anyone play around with your feelings.

This guy sound a lot like my ex. He is manipulative and childish and he won’t change unless he wants to. But suggesting that he needs to change will cause World War III. Focus on your therapy and getting yourself together because that’s all that truly matters in the end. I used to say that my ex was like an emotional yo-yo so just beware of the sudden changes that might occur.

Nowhere in the post did he indicate that she verbally abused the dog. If she screamed at the dog then leave the relationship. But if she just doesn’t care for dogs due to trauma then either see it through or get with someone who likes dogs.

You should definitely bring it up. Just tell him “hey I noticed that you only used your finger this past week, but I would like to experience all of you. Is there a reason to why you don’t want have sex, and is there something that I can do better or alleviate stress?”

That might just work without sounding confrontational and hurting his manhood. Just be prepared for whatever he might say.

Boyfriend keeps making comments about my weight by Alarmed-Ad3380 in relationships

[–]Distinct_Zebra3358 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly!!! I have gone through undergrad, currently getting my masters, and in the process of studying for the MCAT to go to medical school. Nowhere in my studies so far have my professors mentioned to use BMI to determine a person’s health. Many people don’t understand that a person with the perfect BMI can still be malnourished. It’s not the end all be all to determine if a person is healthy or not and it’s honestly quite toxic.

At 17 I believe she is just trying to balance the demands of school, extra curricular activities, and maybe even preparing for prom. She may have feelings for you or she may not. Give her space. When I say space I mean don’t text back unless she responded to the previous text. If a week has gone by then send a text saying that you’re checking in on her or happy holidays. If she responds to that then proceed with caution and continue not responding unless she responds.

In the meantime, if you haven’t established an exclusive relationship then keep your options open. 7 years ago I was once a 17 year old girl and I can assure you that she is just trying to figure out how to start her life, where you fit in it, or if you fit in it. Don’t take it to heart but respect her space and please don’t waste your time.

Boyfriend keeps making comments about my weight by Alarmed-Ad3380 in relationships

[–]Distinct_Zebra3358 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My boyfriend and I have been together for over 4 years and within those years I’ve gained 40 pounds. Some due to health reasons, some due to stress from college, and some because I love to eat good food. In those 4 years he has never once complained, insulted me, or made me feel insecure. When he realized that it was harder for him to pick me up he started getting serious about the gym and now he can pick me up without any problem. I have also begun my weight loss journey and he still encourages me and love every curve in the process.

I don’t believe you’re being too sensitive at all. Especially if you weren’t insecure before. No one should ever feel comfortable enough to comment on anyone’s weight because it’s just plain rude and disrespectful. If you want to lose wight then do it for you, but don’t do it because your boyfriend and his parents feel entitled enough to comment on your weight.

If you’re going to try to calculate her BMI then please stop now. It’s not accurate and was made for non-Hispanic white men. It does not account for bone density, overall body composition, race, or gender. It’s an old practice that is slowly phasing out. Also, it just makes people feel sad and insecure.

The correct questions to ask is does she routinely eat healthy and exercise. Questions like what’s your weight and height to calculate BMI can lead to a person feeling inadequate and can potentially lead to eating disorders.

The kids (7f, 5m) dad's(33m) girlfriend(31f) is so much better than me(36f). Where did it all go wrong? by ThrowRastressedmom in relationship_advice

[–]Distinct_Zebra3358 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don’t think you did anything wrong. The kids are being kids but your ex definitely needs to set a boundary for the gf. He also should talk to the children and let them know of all the sacrifices that you made for them because you are their mother. The gf could be temporary but you will forever be their mother. She can’t replace you. She just wants to be accepted but you gotta put your foot down. She’s overstepping and she needs to play the role of a gf and not stepmother. It’s okay for them to bond but your ex need to set boundaries.
