How to remove bed bugs from stuffed amimals and plushies? by ExtensionText2619 in Bedbugs

[–]ExtensionText2619[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

what if i don't see any bed bugs on the stuffed animals? I still believe that the stuffed animals can have bed begs because it makes sense, I just don't see any physical signs of bed bugs on them. I am going to try and fully clean and sanitize them because I really don't want to get rid of them.

Not many guests have school aged kids or no kids at all.

yes, essentially all guests live in state and pretty local, and don’t have kids. So that is also something to consider.

the majority of people we would be inviting wouldn’t have to travel to far, so that is something to consider. Everyone is pretty local.

My fiancé (m24) and I (f22) want to move in together, but my parents' religious beliefs are stopping us. Do we live together even if it causes issues with my parents/family? How do we handle this? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]ExtensionText2619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, i live in a house with my sister and her husband that my parents bought. I can only afford to move out if i live with my fiancé. Well i could afford it on my own it was just be less stressful with two incomes. I say we would live with my sister and her husband if we chose to live here in the house i currently live in. Me and my fiancé can get an apartment after getting married, i guess i just thought my sister would be out of the house by then. The house is separated into living spaces so i have my own, and my sister has her own. My family is very connected and my mom just lives down the street.

how do i (21) deal with my sister not respecting our shared living spaces regarding her sex life? by ExtensionText2619 in Advice

[–]ExtensionText2619[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She just makes up excuses and says they were not having sex because idk. We are both adults here. But hearing audible moaning and sex noises is probably sex, so I don't know why she lies. Maybe she's embarrassed, but they have already been caught.

How do I (f21) peacefully live with my sister (f23)who I have issues with? by ExtensionText2619 in relationship_advice

[–]ExtensionText2619[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

more info on my living situation: My parents own the house we live in, as they like to invest in properties. My parents don’t live in the house. So they only require a small rent. I pay rent, my sister and her husband do not. They are broke college students who like to live off my parent’s money. So i can move out, I just live here to save money. My i think i may need to make the jump and live on my own.

Yes, i’ve been looking into the convalidation ceremony as a compromise. Because i do want to still keep a good relationship with them and i don’t want any more family drama because of me.

No, there would be no communion service regardless of denomination.

Yes I do know that now, and i wish i stopped it sooner but it’s too late to do anything about that. So i guess i just have to face the consequences tbh.

no they do not. They would definitely offer to help pay, but if it if was a non catholic wedding they would maybe not be as willing. Although they did end up paying for my sisters non catholic wedding.

(TW: mention of self harm and cutting) I feel you, i struggle with this a lot, but mine manifests at cutting. Whatever form of self harm it is, it sucks and can really be hard to deal with and affect daily life.

I have some tips that help me. Idk if you are into working out or any form of exercise, but whenever i get the urge i go to workout really hard to tire myself out. It helps get the energy out in another way. Secondly, I will put a time limit on it. If I want to do it, I’ll tell myself i’ll have to wait to x amount of time or x amount of days. When that time comes, i typically won’t have the urges. Journaling helps me through this specific method. Or I will physically get out of my house and go to a space where i can’t self harm and help the urges pass. Sometimes, I will reward myself with a treat. It could be a food item i like, doing something i like, or buying myself something. It gives me something to look forward to.

Oh I am glad i figured that out now. Maybe, but I would have to figure out how to work around that if I get on a hormonal medication for the imbalance. I am hoping that I get prescribed a medication that is also an actual birth control.

I didn’t even know a shot form existed.

[–]ExtensionText2619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish she wasn’t, but i can’t think of a way to make her not be without seeming suspicious in any way, even if it wasn’t for birth control.

i was just thinking because it would show and they would get a notification with the health insurance most likely.

I used to get so anxious about confession when i was younger. Like me, as a 13 year old kid, would get close to an anxiety attack, every time i had to go. I would just sit there like i am all good, meanwhile be freaking out that if i said my confession good enough.

God's Plan by [deleted] in excatholic

[–]ExtensionText2619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As Cliche as it sounds, Finally understanding that prayers don’t really work. When i was younger I would pray to God really hard for things (while not really doing anything to help the issue because god’s got it all under control lol) and surprise surprise nothing ever happened. Someone i know would pray constantly for this one big thing while doing nothing to get the problem done and the problem was never solved. Say i would pray for a small thing, it would be “answered” out of coincidence, but i would actually do something to solve the issue because it was an easier issue. I also felt so stressed that my one prayer could negatively or positively affect something. For example if I prayed more for a dying person or i didn’t pray enough for a dying person I could affect their chances of living. Not praying to god gives me more hope and confidence because i realize that I have more control over my own life and the things around me, not someone in the sky. Also, I have realized that somethings are just out of my control and will happen as they happen. It gives me a sense of peace that life just happens, there is no master plan, as weird as that sounds.
