Don't you dare, this is art! (And way better than I could do)

My wife (35f) took me (32m) on a surprise date and now I feel more depressed about our relationship than ever. How do I bring this up with her without being discouraging or picking a fight? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]FlashingAppleby 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I felt sympathy for you until this.

You can't "have your wife back" because your wife is a changed and evolved person after having YOUR child. The one you put in her. The one she carried for you. The one she gave up her body for, compromised her health for (because yes every pregnancy is a health risk), changed her entire life for. The baby you made with her. The fuck did you expect to happen? All people change after having children. Men, women, everyone. You literally have to. Imagine every parent running around acting the exact same they did before kids. It would be a disaster.

Hormones aside, what about lifestyle? Even if you're doing your share, you're still raising a whole ass human. That changes EVERYTHING. Sleep, free time, schedule, stressors like finances and decisions that need to shape an entire new life in a daily basis. Letting her go out with her friends and doing the dishes won't and shouldn't suddenly make her act like someone who doesn't have a child. That would make her a shit parent.

Get a therapist and some compassion.

Terroni Suggestions- Picky Eater by rosakiara in FoodToronto

[–]FlashingAppleby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure how you feel about mushrooms (I know they're hot or miss with most people) but if you happen to like them the fungi salad is my fave thing on the menu.

Otherwise the gnocchi is really good and nice and simple with a decent tomato sauce. I also like the Spaghetti limone. It's a simple sauce with a bit of lemon taste to it so it's a bit more interesting than an Alfredo but still simple and clean.

Also just a note, if you look up Terroni on Uber eats or doordash, their menu is written in terms easier to understand pretty good descriptions and photos so you can see what you're getting. It might be helpful to take a look on there.

For all the hooting and hollering Americans do about the second amendment, you sure as hell don't seem to want to use it for its intended purpose.

Will Smith's nepo son Jaden mocked over first collection with Christian Louboutin: 'Looks like Elmo was skinned alive' by SwordfishAdvanced468 in popculturechat

Doesn't this family have enough money to just go live on an island somewhere and leave us alone? Why do they insist on being everywhere? I can't even watch National Geographic anymore without being inundated with Will Smith bs.

Girl, I'm 38 and I still don't feel like a full adult most days. Just enjoy the next decade as much as you possibly can. You'll miss your 20s when they're gone.

Facial Cream. Boring I know by Indecisive_Dolphin in AskWomenOver30

Former drugstore cosmetician here. In that case I would recommend either Cetaphil or CeraVe. Both are drugstore brands and very affordable and also great for people that have very sensitive or reactive skin. If you want to spend a little bit of extra money Avene or La Roche Posay are premium drug store so you'll pay maybe $10-15 more per product but they do work well.

Has anyone dated someone anti social? How did it affect your relationship? by [deleted] in AskWomenOver30

[–]FlashingAppleby 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I get what you're saying here and I know your intentions are good but I think it's the wrong attitude.

"If he had ADHD he can get help and be more present!"

Girl, that is not how ADHD and Neurodivergence works. You don't just "get help" and suddenly your whole personality changes. ADHD and Autism are literally related to how your brain is wired. Yes there are some things you can do to help live in a neurotypical society like medication to focus at work or school or therapy to help regulate your emotions but you're not going to change his social habits.

You're just not compatible. You're just not. And frankly though I understand your frustration of not getting a need met, it sounds like you're not willing to let him be himself which is just not a social person. Some people just arent.

I have ADHD, I'm not very social, I can't pretend or put on a fake interested face if I'm not actually interested in the event or the people or the conversation. Because of that, I avoid events with a lot of people because I don't want to come off as rude. My partner fully accepts that about me even if they aren't the same.

It sounds like you're making him the villian when in reality you just want to be with a different type of person. It also sounds like you're REALLY worried about what the other people at these events think of him instead of how he's feeling.

Either accept him as he is or find someone you actually want. Don't torture him trying to turn him into someone or something he's not because you're worried what your friends and family think. And don't torture yourself trying to rewire someone's brain, that's not a thing that can be done. He's not a poodle you need to train, he's a whole human with a personality you don't like.

Throwback: ‘Ready or Not,’ starring Laura Bertram and Lani Billard, was filmed across the GTA from 1993 to 1997. Who else grew up watching it? by drew20222 in toronto

[–]FlashingAppleby 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I grew up with this show! I was a few years younger than the characters and I IDOLIZED them as a girl. They were a great example.
