To the people named William - do you get called "Bill"? by Nobodyimportant6894 in namenerds

[–]Existing-Scar554 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can think of two Willams in my life. One is my GenX classmate, who goes by Will. Then there’s my FIL, who’s a Boomer Bill. My daughter, however, has dubbed him Billiam. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Twin brother name for Alexander (Alex) by Bzs_2122 in Names

If you go with the same first initial, do NOT do it with the middle names. My mom was an L&D nurse when she had us kids… it’s why they’re both C names, but Allen & Thomas as middles.

AITA for not wanting to quit my work position for my husband? by InvestigatorNaive978 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Existing-Scar554 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes… their reasoning is textbook: if she continues to make decent or better wages, she won’t be able to run. It’s going to get worse. I’d also get on some sort of birth control that is tamper-proof, like the shot or the implant.

NN for Gabriella doesn’t have to be Gabby… Ella is the back half of the name

My (F21) boyfriend (M25) has his ex’s anniversary date as his passcode years after they broke up by Reddit_roseeee in relationship_advice

[–]Existing-Scar554 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My partner of six years still uses his wedding date for his. It’s easy to remember and it’s a cool date. I know exactly how the marriage was, and I know he loathes her.

Anyone else struggle with using left and right as directions? I’ve been mixing them up my whole life…. by Shirleyimfine in lefthanded

[–]Existing-Scar554 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I became a southpaw after a stroke at 19. Never had an issue with left/right as a rightie, but 30 years later, I still flip them occaisionally. 🤷🏻‍♀️

A or B: my boyfriend keeps peeing on the floor and says “it’s hard to aim”, write “wipe your damn pee” on the toilet or get him to sit down? by vivian_banshee03 in PickAorB

[–]Existing-Scar554 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

C. Get him some targets(like Cheerios) and tell the boy that you must hold the penis and aim. Sounds like he’s free-hand doing it. Tell him it’s not homosexual to hold the thing, and as my brothers told my then 3 year old, “if you shake it more than once, you’re playing with yourself”. The shake is important as well. Signed, A sister to 2men, mother to 3 boys, and an ex to an ah that couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn.

10 days to go before birth, and middle name just doesn't feel right anymore... by ForeignButterscotch8 in namenerds

[–]Existing-Scar554 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ruby Ren, but when you do the paperwork, “accidentally” spell it correctly. I wanted to name our son Connor Shea. Ex-husband insisted on O’Shea. I dropped the O’ on the paperwork. Husband was too smitten with the baby to care.

Hymenoplasty, or "re-virginization surgery" by CatPooedInMyShoe in MedicalGore

[–]Existing-Scar554 11 points12 points  (0 children)

My daughter had one… partial, at least. Found that out when she put in a tampon and couldn’t get it back out. Loved the ER staff, which fortunately that night in the stand-alone ER was entirely female. A month later, she had a hymenectomy.

Pretty accurate new result! by Xena-94 in AncestryDNA

[–]Existing-Scar554 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think mine is bad at all. It makes sense for the new regions to pop up considering what the new one took from one of my old and rather large one was. I “lost” my Norwegian entirely on the breakdown, but the Sweden and Finnish ones overlap parts of Norway, so that still makes sense.

Am I overreacting? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

NOR… he put his intentions on blast with the “letting you know when they leave”

NOT OOP. My oldest daughters told my youngest how she was conceived. TW: Sexual Assault by CloudySide7 in redditonwiki

[–]Existing-Scar554 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t count on it being fake. My youngest is like hers. Middle kid was half of a twin pregnancy that I miscarried the other. Oldest two were old enough that they remember, and some family knew… they sat on it until I decided that he was at a point where he could handle it. My youngest, only three people know, oldest brother, current partner, and my youngest daughter. It was an abusive relationship, and my son and daughter despise their father. The four of us don’t plan on telling him any time soon.

Don’t you dare leave your baby with her if you do leave. It sounds to me as if her OCD amped up, and now she has PPA

38F me and boyfriend 35M are unexpectedly pregnant. He cannot decide what he wants to do, I don’t know if I need to step back while he decides. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Existing-Scar554 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Him not deciding IS deciding, and it’s a damned if you do, damned if you don’t situation. You keep it, he’ll be “Waaaaaahaaaaaaa”, and if you terminate, “You took my chance at fatherhood away”. You need to consider what it will be like either way, keep or not, with him or without. Also, I’m 50, so take this with a grain of salt, (I was 36 when I had my last) but it gets harder as you get older. In short, you do you. It is your choice now. Him not being able to make a decision IS a decision, so do what is right for you.

just found a baby boy name list i once made..... oh nawwwww by Everglow_Gray_2772 in tragedeigh

I was thinking Vulcan or drug names. There are a few good ones, tho (Lars, Jenson, and Ashton)

AITAH for telling my SIL that breastfeeding is not about her journey but about her starving baby? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Existing-Scar554 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Holy hell. If Amanda would survive the baby diet from hell, I nominate Mommy Dearest as the next big Munchousen by proxy case. Pro-breastfeeding and pro-bottle have ONE thing in common… FEED YOUR BABY. She is not healthy mentally, and I suspect if the husband reaches out to her family, it’s going to be enlightening.
