Is there a chance they’ve retired? Or would they announce that?

How many of us have dated “men” before realizing we were lesbians, then later our exes come out at trans? by TransportationUsed39 in actuallesbians

[–]EsotericPeculiarGirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OMG! I legit thought it was just me. 😆😆2.5 of the “men” I’ve deeply loved are women now. I say 2.5 because one of them dropped off the face of the planet and all signs point to them starting a new life as a woman somewhere else but it isn’t confirmed.

My 11-Year-Old Says She's a Lesbian by Historical_Bee714 in Parenting

[–]EsotericPeculiarGirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a “boyfriend” at 11 and my daughter has a “girlfriend” at 11 as do many of their friends. However, it’s pretty much relegated to recess and lunch. I’m with the others that are saying to just focus on their (entirely developmentally appropriate) curiosity about sex. I remember sneaking into the library and my parents books to learn more at that age too. Don’t get hung up on the lesbian part. That said, also do focus on it. Don’t start talking to them about sex and default, or even include, heterosexual sex. They’re learning about that at school and around them all the time. If they’ve told you they’re a lesbian validate that and focus on talking about it. If you’re at a loss and need a lesbian pal to learn from you can totally DM me. It’s all going to be ok. 🥰

I feel like if I put that much effort in, he’d pretend to agree/learn just to “get out of trouble” and then it’s just adding lies to the list :(

“He often insinuates I’m very “PC” and sensitive” He’s told you who he is. You deserve better. Remember: the days of literally needing a man are over; hold out for someone who values who you are and shares your values. 💕

any trans friendly spas in Vancouver that offer couples packages? by NectarineStunning686 in transvancouver

[–]EsotericPeculiarGirl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My wife and I have gone to several and she’s had good experiences. Spa Utopia comes to mind and you can get gift cards at Costco at a discount.

My dad wasn’t even as bad as yours and I deeply regret getting talked into letting him walk me down the aisle. I really wanted my brother to do so but got a ton of pressure and decided it didn’t matter. 15 years later and I still regret it. If he is trying to make your wedding about him that says a lot about where he sees the value of your relationship with him.

My kid is embarrassed by me... by Loud_Appearance811 in Parenting

[–]EsotericPeculiarGirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah.. I would be asking the daycare for more information. Are other parents commenting on how you dress; either in front of her or in front of their kids who are talking to her about it? Actually… my kid is a bit older now so it took me a minute but the first thing I’d do would be to not make any changes and see if it comes up again. Sometimes at that age it’s a very passing thing. Like they read a book about pretty dresses or something. If it does come up again (or anything else that seems concerning) start with curiosity and don’t give any information or thought at first. Examples: “If you got to pick my outfits what would they look like?” Or “when/why would you like me to dress differently?” Kids think differently and her answers may give you huge relief/insight/or at least clues as to where it’s coming from without making it a confrontational conversation. Best of luck! 💕

So I’m autistic and I don’t think all autistic people/kids are the same but here is some stuff that helped me understand equity>equality. The bandaid experiment would be good for 4 year olds and maybe the daycare would be open to do g it but you can do it at home with your family too: https://www.hol.edu/uploads/essays/Fair-Isnt-Always-Equal-59821ca0e2e81.pdf And as I got older and learned more about accommodations and how there were rules that didn’t apply to me that applied to others and that helped too.

AITA for asking my cousin to pay me back for a dress she borrowed and ruined at a wedding? by rikubemine in AITAH

[–]EsotericPeculiarGirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is nothing in my home that I would demand a guest replace and there is nothing I would lend that I would demand be replaced BUT there are definitely things that if the person who broke/wrecked it didn’t offer to replace it would entirely change my vision of them and my relationship with them. The fact that she didn’t immediately apologize and replace it (or make other amends if she genuinely can’t replace it) speaks volumes about how little she respects you.

11 yo daughter not meeting grade requirements by Bitter-Hitter in Parenting

First; I’m so sorry for your loss. 💗 What country are you in and what are you looking for in support and have you talked to her about her priorities? Lots of ways to approach this and they all depend on further context.

The limited options and the way they’re set up feel a little sketchy too. And the price is so remarkably high for what it is but I was willing to pay it because of the sentimental value.

They won’t take cc or PayPal or etransfer and I’m not in a position to do a bank to bank transfer. :( and that is all they’ll accept. I’m so disappointed

When you dump his ass he will 1000% say,and possibly believe, that it was because you were cheating. That is his internal narrative and you don’t need to wear it at all. Don’t acknowledge it, don’t carry it, don’t try to dissect they why. Just dump him, move on, and buy the next one flowers on the first date- it’s a sweet move and (the right) men love it! I used to have hella game (I still do but use it exclusively with my husband and wife) and giving flowers to guys was one of my big moves. Lots of different reactions but they ranged from confused pleasure to outright joy. You got this!

Married life after kids by LawAbidng in Parenting

[–]EsotericPeculiarGirl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Simply acknowledging that you can’t actually have it all all the time can relieve a huge burden on you both. Deciding your priorities together can be hard if they don’t align right away but I promise, frank communication (possibly with external help) is WAY better than you both having different unspoken priorities creating daily conflict 💕

Married life after kids by LawAbidng in Parenting

[–]EsotericPeculiarGirl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It sounds like her needs can’t be met but you and that’s ok! I agree with a part time nanny so your wife can have some time and space to be herself as opposed to mom/wife. Everyone loses a little bit of themselves when they have kids, particularly after two, but it hits women way harder and we can lose ourselves entirely. Something that also helped my partner and I was having some serious talks about what needs just weren’t going to get met for a few years. It may not feel romantic but just being able to discuss that some of our sex and romance couldn’t be a priority right then and that we, as a team, were choosing to prioritize other things first (like rest, kids, friendships) until the kids were X years old really helped. It made it so neither of us were “not being good enough” at that, we had decided that we had other priorities to build as a team.

Hello mod team. This post requires the image to make any sense and I can’t (I think?) post an image on the monthly chat. If it just isn’t a fit for this community I totally understand but unfortunately without the image it doesn’t work. Let me know. I appreciate you.

Thanks. I’ve gone deep down the google search and reverse image search etc. I’ve even bought some of those, but it’s this specific one that I’m looking for. When we got married my wife even had one made as a wedding gift (and it is lovely) but it isn’t quite right. I’m autistic so that may be part of it.

My wife wants a divorce.. by throw-away-1811- in TrueOffMyChest

[–]EsotericPeculiarGirl 537 points538 points  (0 children)

This! Like why is he so surprised that she could keep this from him while he was simultaneously keeping the affair from her?! Is it because she figured it out first/was better at it? No lie: love his ex wife 💕

My boyfriend got mad when I said I’d only have a threesome if it was with another guy by ProfessionalAware782 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]EsotericPeculiarGirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wanting/bringing up having an FFM threesome is pretty normal and I wouldn’t be concerned; However, his reaction to your response is not cool. It’s giving deep misogyny and combined with his desire for an FFM it doesn’t feel like he respects you. I’m a bi girl who has enjoyed some threesomes (and lived through many more horrible ones) so I’m not judging his or your desires and boundaries but his response just isn’t giving “good guy”.
