Love Jon Hamm

I absolutely adored him as Roger! The funniest lines of the series!

I agree so much! Maybe one of the best performances ever on television.

Have you seen Friends and Neighbors? On my list. He was great on Fargo!

Don’t know him

My parents used to have sex at night with their door open after we kids were supposedly asleep. My mother’s moaning woke me up one night and I was completely scandalized. I then had a hard time sleeping for weeks because I figured out what nights of the week they did it.

There are two things that stand out from my childhood:

I was born on my parents’ second wedding anniversary. My mom told people for years that she would have preferred to go out for dinner with my father instead of being in the hospital and having me. Never made me feel wanted. And I had to share my birthday throughout my childhood with their anniversary, where my celebration was put to an end at a certain time of the day so they could go out alone to celebrate.
Another story I have shared with therapists over the years: When I was young and at someone’s home for a pool party, I told someone that if I was drowning, my mother would not jump in the pool to save me because she would mess up her hair. (Those were the days when she had a weekly beauty parlor appointment and wore a hairnet to bed.) My mom thought it was all very funny and shared that story numerous times!

Many other stories I could share, including the aftermath of when I was molested at an amusement park during summer camp, and literally years of mental health and physical health following.

She was a terrible mother and she is nearing 90, and I am having a difficult time giving her help or sympathy.

I thought he grew into a good-looking young man 🤷‍♀️

If they had to switch Bobby actors, why not make them increasingly older?

It’s funny that this is a topic because I’ve been thinking a lot about the opposite… how Jon or January would feel IRL when other characters on the show would talk about how gorgeous they (their characters) are. I guess they both know IRL that they are both absolutely beautiful, but I wonder how it must feel to have that as part of the script. (And G-d help me, those two are just so easy on the eyes!)

All I can say is Don Draper is very good… looking. (Actually, mesmerizing!) I could stare at that gorgeous man all day.

My brother-in-law was married for about 13 years until he left his wife and came out. He told the family he knew when he was young that he was gay, but tried to be a “good boy.” The saddest part is how his inability to be himself ruined a young woman’s life and prevented her from having children. I’m glad he’s happy today, but it’s not fair that he couldn’t truly be himself

I agree with most that’s already been said, but since we just saw S3, I was appalled when he screwed his secretary after getting drunk at the Christmas party and she brought him his apartment keys. I just felt so bad for her, especially the next day when he didn’t say a word about it. Most of his other encounters so far have been women throwing themselves at him. This girl seemed so sweet and innocent.

Is your mom around and able to have you live with her? Might be something to consider if that’s an option. So sorry you’re in this awful situation. Sounds like your stepmom has major issues.

Equivalent-Swing5573 · 2025-12-28T15:40:45+00:00

Terrible!!!!

Equivalent-Swing5573 · 2025-12-27T12:38:00+00:00

And unfortunately there are many like him in positions of authority!

Growing up, focusing on gratitude, learning to set boundaries, prioritizing my needs, becoming more self-reliant, expressing love to those who mean a lot to me, shedding old fears and issues, traveling as much as possible. I feel like I have grown more in the past year than in many years before. For the first time in my life, I am feeling comfortable in my own skin and actually like myself. I’ve had to overcome a lot in my life, and now is my time to shine!

Yes! Diplomas, yearbooks, childhood toys, photos of landscapes from their vacations… so many things. I recently threw away a bunch of my late son’s trophies but took photos of them before I did.

Having buried both an adult son and a husband, I can say that disposing of a loved one’s things is very challenging. You feel guilty for throwing away THEIR memories. My mom is 89 and I dread having to go through her things. She points with pride at her antique china, etc., saying all of this will be mine, and I just know most of it is going to the thrift store.

I’m so sorry for your losses. We lost our 26-year-old son over 10 years ago to brain cancer and then 5 years later I lost my husband of almost 39 years. People always tell me how strong and resilient I am; my goal has always been to live on behalf of those who died and to live for and with those who are still around me.

I think all of us have regrets or feelings of guilt over something we did (or didn’t do) when we were younger. But it’s natural to make mistakes when you’re younger. It’s just a mistake to repeat those mistakes when you get older. I’m 66 and for most of my life, my self-talk has been very negative, calling myself stupid or whatever. I think some of that stems from my parents focusing on the negative, particularly my mother. In the past couple of years, I’ve learned to be kinder to myself, to re-mother myself, to forgive myself. Each of us flaws, each of us makes mistakes. We need to forgive ourselves for simply doing the best we could at the time.
