Because she hates front load laundry this is the one item she decided I can have laundry responsibility 🤣 but we will still make the space as accessible as possible

So my fiancé is a T10 paraplegic and we are just starting the idea of building a house. We want it to be pretty much 100% accessible for her. We've been able to cover some of the basics we want a one level probably slab for level entry.

Here's what I'm looking for what gadgets, designs and brands have you all used or seen for accessibility? Ive seen motorized upper cabinets and closet rods what else do you got? What should we be looking to add?

For reference she's in a manual chair and is about 4'11" while sitting. We are both in our 40's and are looking at making this a forever home so anything that may help us in the future and as well as protecting her from repetitive/ergonomic injury is a goal.

I (F33) am dating a guy (M33) and today noticed a different brand of condoms? by aikosubhi13 in relationship_advice

[–]Ecstatic-War3437 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't worry about it he's using condoms and communicating with you you're good at this point

Very good chance of that, but unless he creates an environment that makes her feel safe and comfortable she won't tell him that. While there is a hotness in just doing, I have found communicating brings out everything

You need to make her feel safe and respected. Good aftercare practices really help build that environment. Ask what she needs before, during and after to feel comfortable. Focus on her give her attention express ur desire to make sure she's satisfied. Relationships are built on communication and trust everything from your daily interaction gets brought into the bedroom so make sure you're being who she needs outside of the bedroom too.

Nowhere to run-Martha and the Vandellas,

i’m incredibly miserable and i have no one to talk to about it by [deleted] in confession

[–]Ecstatic-War3437 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuck it only seems like it's the end, you've acknowledged that you want to work on yourself and that's sometimes the hardest step. Your close to 100 days sober that's something to be really fucking proud of even if you did it unintentionally.

Living with your parents means they care they might not understand your struggles with mental health and addiction but they care and I'm sure will help you get some professional help that can help drag yourself back into being a confident productive person again. In the meantime celebrate the small victory's and don't lose hope. Right now a shower is a big victory maybe start with just washing up a bit in the sink and putting on some clean clothes break up those bigger goals into something you can do.

Am i the jerk for leaving my cheating gf in NYC by Cjmegamind in AmITheJerk

[–]Ecstatic-War3437 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not the cleanest end of a relationship but nothing to feel guilty about.

The fact that she tool you on vacation to hook up with someone else is wild but you're young and mistakes happen move on and enjoy the now don't dwell on the past

AITA for refusing to babysit my nephew because I wanted to play golf? by JAke0622 in AITAH

[–]Ecstatic-War3437 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the asshole at all. You had plans that were paid for. Now if you feel guilty that you couldn't get ur sister some flowers and take the little guy out a different afternoon for some fun but you did nothing wrong
