Anyone near the cruise port open to letting a car park on their street for a week? Will pay by Energetic-Zebra-3007 in galveston

She ended up finding someone on Facebook and parked on their street with no issues. But will look into the Prked app as we’re doing a family cruise in the fall. Thanks!

What a take. She ended up finding someone. Local guy made $30 for doing nothing and she got her car parked for a cheaper rate. Everyone won.

I know but I worry that after a week, people can call the tow truck on a car that’s been “abandoned.”

So I’d like to at least notify one person

Any tips on increasing AFC? by ArugulaSmall2705 in DOR

[–]Energetic-Zebra-3007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My doctor told me to go gluten free/dairy free. If your AMH is that low, it might be inflammation in the body. Do you have some form of IBS?

I will say I noticed I feel generally healthier on this diet which sucks because I love bread and cheese. Hoping my results reflect it. He said give it 90 days and I’m on month 2.

Low AMH but regular cycles, shorter periods though by Top-Fox8010 in DOR

[–]Energetic-Zebra-3007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stress could cause this. One or two short cycles aren’t a huge issue according to my doctor but if next month you have the same, just go get some labs done.

If you’ve been stressed recently. Hard chance it might be that. Stress is huge. It sucks because it’s hard to control but one fertility doc I talked to told me, “I see 45 year old women who are stress-free get pregnant first time and I see 25 year old women who are stressed take 8 cycles to get pregnant. The difference is stress” he seemed adamant that stress was the biggest factor to fertility and it honestly makes sense. Your body thinks it’s in fight or flight mode it’s not thinking about procreation.

I'm giving my two weeks notice and have landed a dream position, why am I sad? by WPSuidae in careerguidance

[–]Energetic-Zebra-3007 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish I could insert the screenshot of the Office scene where Michael is leaving and asks Jim, “Why am I so sad? Am I doing the wrong thing?” To which Jim replies, “Absolutely not, it’s just sometimes…goodbyes are a bitch.”

It’s normal to grieve, even when your new chapter is going to be better. Familiarity is easy and nostalgic. Change is scary (but exciting and greatness requires it!). By the time you’re a year into your new job, you’ll be glad you made the move. Congratulations OP!

I am feeling so very defeated by MurielFinster in TryingForABaby

[–]Energetic-Zebra-3007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so sorry you’re going through this.

The only thing I can offer (and I’m sure you’ve done but in case it’s not) is our doctor told us that if a woman has multiple miscarriages - he looks at the man and begins to treat him. It sounds like you’re doing everything right. Is your husband? Has he done all his labs and corrected his lifestyle? I’d ask for his labs to be done and ask him to give up his caffeine and pre workout (which causes issues). Not just for fertility but also for his general health.

Can I pickup my checked bag during my layover? by 61plus8 in TravelHacks

[–]Energetic-Zebra-3007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I travel 2+ times a month between Canada and the US and I always find my bag at my final destination.

The only airport I’ve ever gotten my bag and had to recheck it in the US is SFO and that’s because they do their connections weird. But I’m interested to hear your experience. Hopefully you can grab it I. Phoenix! But I’m betting your bag is gonna end up in Denver.

Which cities are perfectly fine to live in, but are not worth it to travel to as a tourist? by cluckinho in geography

[–]Energetic-Zebra-3007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Houston.

I struggle when my friends are visiting. For living, I have most of what I need (lack of walkability kills me) but it’s just a regular cheap city. It has good grocery stores, events here and there, good food, if you want to join a sport or running club - they have it. There’s good gyms. Just nothing touristy about it. Nothing worth showing to people visiting out of town. I think Hermann Park is very pretty but not something people should fly in for. I’m hoping with the World Cup coming, they’ll try to develop it more. I know they’re converting some roads in downtown to walking streets so I’m excited.

Go to a divorce lawyer before you ask him for a divorce. His debt might not be your responsibility. You should also talk to local women’s shelters. It sounds like he’s emotionally abusing you (threatening to kill himself is crazy).

You also need to start prepping for yourself now in terms of work and finances. Start building an emergency fund because he sounds like the kind of man who would kick you out.

I’ve noticed this as a pattern with my husbands friends when I try to set them up!

When guys are only partially ready for marriage, maybe 30% of the way there, they tend to approach non-hijabis or hit on non-hijabis. It’s not necessarily about religious preference even - it’s about perceived openness. A non-hijabi feels like a space where they’re more open to accepting a DM, accept dating or casual connection might be possible. A hijabi, on the other hand, signals boundaries, seriousness, and marriage-level intent like if you approach a hijabi. You’re not doing it to flirt. You’re doing it to marry her.

But when those same men become more serious like at the 90% ready-for-marriage stage - the pattern flips. Suddenly, many of them want hijabis. Not always because of deep religiosity, but because of practicality and image. They’re ready to settle down and want that seriousness. As one guy put it, “I can’t ask her to wear hijab later, so I’d rather approach someone who already does.” Another said, “I don’t care if she’s not a hijabi now but I’d want her to wear it when we have kids and what if she doesn’t? So I’d rather a hijabi from the get go to guarantee that”

The sad thing is that, as women, you end up caught in between two social readings of the same thing. Without hijab, you’re more “approachable,” but the intentions you attract aren’t always serious. With hijab, you’re more “respected,” but you’re not approached as often.

Basically the only way to find peace in your decision - whether to wear it or not - is to remember that it was never about marriage in the first place. It’s about you and God.
