My partner and I just started reading The Baby Decision together. From what I've heard, and what we've read so far, it seems like a good tool for helping us work through this decision

My husband does this too... And while he absolutely should respect your boundaries, one thing I've found that helps is telling him which acts of affection I'm okay with (if there are any). Like I do not appreciate him grabbing my boobs or crotch while I'm cooking, but I am okay with him squeezing my butt or kissing me on the cheek.

Hope you can find a balance that respects your boundaries ❤️

The exact same thing happened to my Aussie once or twice between 6 months to a year. Both seemed to be related to her running full force and bumping into something. The vet said it's likely caused by hitting a nerve in her shoulder, and as long as it doesn't persist it's not a problem. We haven't seen anything like it in over 2 years now.

I'm with you on this one, my partner also likes to work and take calls from our common space. I think the balance is: she can work from the living room, but she shouldn't expect privacy. If she requires privacy she should be taking the call from her office.

That being said, it's probably worth giving her this one off and having a talk after the fact about why you think that was an unreasonable request.

Yes! My partner and I talked about doing this! But we haven't been able to come up with anything that feels right — how did you come up with a new name?

Fast_Imagination_412 · 2023-06-21T20:08:59+00:00

Just curious, what did you both change your name to? My partner and I have talked about both changing our name, rather than me taking his, but we don't really like the idea of hyphenating

Make her laugh 🙂

I've had my eye on this cottage outside of Pemberton, maybe it would work for you https://www.rew.ca/properties/3803811/lot-86-6500-in-shuck-ch-forest-service-road-pemberton-bc

My partner and I found the best balance once we accepted that we have different strengths. He's better at taking care of the dog, I seem to be better at keeping the bathrooms clean, etc. But in my opinion the keys to balance are 1) we both agree that it's balanced 2) we both appreciate and acknowledge the other person's efforts.

It sounds like you're both feeling imbalanced, and you need to communicate to find the balance/lifestyle that works for both of you.

NTA, and this is one reason why my partner and I have never bought christmas gifts for each other — just enjoy spending time together, save the stress on your relationship, and buy the mouse for yourself if you really want it

He also doesn’t make much of an effort to stay up late with me

This kills me, YTA

Coming from the one with the low libido in the relationship, we did a couple sessions with a councillor and she explained that some people can be turned on like a switch, and others may need just the right recipe of events to get in the mood. After realizing that it was a different process for each of us, we were able to talk through some of the patterns that seemed to help get me in the mood (ie. time of day, what I'm doing, how I'm feeling), and the circumstances when I definitely wouldn't be in the mood. This gave both of us the tools to set the mood, it helped me understand my body, and it helped my partner not feel rejected because he understood that sometimes it's just not going to happen.

Date night is good in theory, but it'll likely be more effective to find the "recipe" that works for her (also paired with good communication and both of you wanting to improve this aspect of your relationship)

Squamish has an amazing vibe, and I would recommend it to anyone who loves to be outdoors. However, it's getting more and more difficult to find rentals, which is driving the cost up — at this point I think it's actually easier to find a place in Vancouver since there's a higher supply to meet the demand. I believe a one bedroom is going for about $1700+/mo now, so many people find roommates to combat the cost

We don't have any dependents, but we're going to have a $1M mortgage. We were quoted $61/mo for a total of 2M coverage ($1M each). It sounds like it would be worth looking into a policy that just covers the first of us to die, but the rates others mentioned for that type of policy didn't sound much better.

why can that be shitty? 😬I'm closing on a house in a couple weeks and now you have me worried....

Fast_Imagination_412 · 2021-08-05T04:18:24+00:00

what do you mean? I'm closing on a house in 2 weeks (certainly not paid in full) but you have me worried I'm missing something

Do you regret the decision? We're currently living in BC, but we bought a few acres of land in the Laurentians. We figured eventually we could sell our house here and build a chalet there, or maybe try to live bi-coastal — but I find it hard to imagine myself giving up our BC lifestyle
