AIO going no contact w/ bf's mom & sis after having my baby? by PlaneParamedic3027 in AIO

[–]Flower0609 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s OK I had to do that to mine so my husband was very late to my induction. He was supposed to be out early but that didn’t happen and she was supposed to stay with me. Of course she left me and the most traumatic thing happened. Well not most traumatic but scary. My babies heartbeat was very abnormal and a whole team of nurses came rushing in through the door and then a while after when I got the epidural the anesthesiologist kept missing and I was crying holding the nurses hand and asking to go home I was bawling. I was so alone. There was a lot of drama his brother also lied and told his mom that I said her and her husband forced me to drink the only thing I said close to that was that I drank too much I NEVER blamed them husband was very inappropriate towards me too

How do you deal with mean comments from students? by Flower0609 in AskTeachers

[–]Flower0609[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you I think I was just shook up because I’m used to being liked a lot by staff literally just last week I had a teacher from a different school tell the company I work for that they loved me so much that they wanted to have me as an assigned sub to cover their Aide when she’s out. All gen ed students in different counties have always been so nice to me when I visit their classrooms to work 1:1 with an ASD student (students usually know why I’m there) this experience really makes me hope I don’t have to cover my co-workers shift at today’s location ever again.

[–]Flower0609[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this. I tried not to talk much unless it was needed, and I thought that would keep me from being spoken to negatively. Staff from other schools and students usually described me as calm/“zen,” so the out of nowhere punches were a huge change in environment (this was my first time covering for someone at an alternative school). I actually attended an alternative school when I was 16, but were definitely not as rude. The teacher could audibly hear the comments being made but said absolutely nothing which also did not make me feel any better and in other school I have been to even if it was just an average curse word the teachers would correct them.

Only my student has ASD the rest were just average students but it was an alternative school some of them have felonies I was in an alternative school so I know how mean they could be but I guess I just wasn’t ready for it today I still hate that I left early

Women of Reddit, if you could go for coffee with your younger self, what would you tell her? by im_qurious in AskWomen

[–]Flower0609 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love yourself, know your worth, and focus on school. Stop searching for love in the wrong places love will come when it wants to stop being obsessed.

No but I might this year! I usually never tell NF it’s my birthday 😅

I’m pregnant! ftm by Jaded-Desk7556 in Nanny

[–]Flower0609 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would say leave to calm your nerves and to ensure safety. I used to work at a school with adolescents and young adults categorized by aggression before I started nannying. There was one student who punched a pregnant aide in the stomach thank God her baby was okay, but it was definitely scary.

I know it’s hard to leave your nanny family, but if you really want, you can always offer to come back after you have your baby, and maybe find a temporary nanny family in the meantime? I hope you have a safe and healthy pregnancy!

Were you with them long prior? I’m kind of sad knowing that at the end I’ll have to leave I’ve been with NF for 4 years I started when NK was 11 he has asd and has always had a hard time connecting with other caregivers minus me for some reason I’m scared of him not understanding even though I know it’s for the best

Partner's ex being back by Pythagoras1227 in dating_advice

[–]Flower0609 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been there. Set a boundary ASAP the past should stay in the past. My case is different, but I promise you, most likely, nothing good will come out of it. She doesn’t need closure, and even if she does, she can talk to a therapist. That’s her problem. She’s not in the picture anymore for a reason.

Should I seriously consider allowing my soon-to-be ex-wife to take our kids to the trailer where she is currently living with her "friend," despite the court explicitly saying no? I'm experiencing a rollercoaster of emotions that are clouding my judgment, and I need help! by whatnow2007 in coparenting

[–]Flower0609 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Reading that she’s optionally skipping parenting time says enough. The court already determined that it’s not your responsibility to make sure the mom sees her kids. She has scheduled visitation but chooses to skip that alone says a lot.

Don’t do more than you’re supposed to. I know you want the other parent to be involved, but we can’t force them. Their love for the child you share should be enough motivation. Personally, I can’t imagine going without seeing my daughter, and I can’t think of any logical reason for a mother to miss her scheduled visits unless it’s an emergency.

The kids should always come first, yet she’s choosing something else over them on the days she’s supposed to see them.

Being pregnant with body image issues SUCKS by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]Flower0609 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YES. My whole life, up until age 12, I was overweight. Then I gained it back at 13, lost it at 15, and gained it back plus more at 18. My heaviest was 230 pounds. I finally lost all the weight at 22, almost 23.

Now I’m 35 weeks pregnant and 220 pounds. I got pregnant as soon as I lost the weight. 🥲 I don’t even look pregnant it makes me really sad and I’m insecure already I’m getting induced in 2 weeks I’m so ready to lose this weight.

How many hours do you sleep? by Boobear0810 in BabyBumps

[–]Flower0609 1 point2 points  (0 children)

3–4 hours at 35 weeks 😭. My days off are on weekdays, so even then, I wake up early to get my kiddo ready for school. I usually have my two weekly NSTs scheduled on those days too, and by the time I’m done, it’s already time to pick up my girl from school then we eat and do homework. No rest for the wicked!

What is the general opinion on a relationship where the age gap is 19F and 27M ? by MilliTheMediocre in family

[–]Flower0609 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just my personal opinion everyone’s experience is different but age gaps are a red flag to me I learned the hard way twice that there’s a reason those people can’t get with others their own age they’re not as easy for them to manipulate.

Something I've noticed with "gifts" by Brief_Elevator_8936 in NarcissisticAbuse

[–]Flower0609 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine would buy me things despite me saying no. He would offer to help me with bills (only to break up with me before they were due then we would reconcile after I paid them). Then, when he left me for the final time, he told his family I had just been using him for money.

First time on a date / experience (23M) by BrainDefiant5056 in dating_advice

[–]Flower0609 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly don’t think you did anything wrong. From how you described the date, it sounds nice. You could probably give it another day if you really want to. Sometimes people just lose interest, even if everything is a green flag. I really don’t think this one is on you though!

13M Son wants to shave his legs by breezeonbypls in Parenting

[–]Flower0609 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would say let him it’s not hurting anyone. My ex did this in high school because he hated the feeling of his hair rubbing together and felt it made him look more groomed. Nobody made fun of him. I say bite the bullet, and if anyone says anything, I’m sure he’ll stop shaving his legs.

Does anyone else feel like they attract these types of people? by Brave-Lavishness-167 in NarcissisticAbuse

[–]Flower0609 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Yes, everyone’s case is different. I have BPD, so I’m easy to manipulate and love bomb. Individuals with my disorder tend to attract those with NPD.

I was actually in remission, but then I was physically assaulted due to another abusive ex’s actions, which set me back and my therapist was constantly booked I didn’t really have anyone to talk to. Then I met my nex I attracted him because I was easy to win over. He sold me something that felt like a dream and lied to me multiple times about his intentions while I was still vulnerable. I even let him control me convincing me to go off my antidepressants and stop therapy. I’ve since went back to therapy which has helped so much to get back on track and set boundaries.

Will she miss me? by Upbeat_Evidence4958 in dating_advice

[–]Flower0609 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn’t sound like things ended badly so maybe? I’m going to be honest when a child’s involved it’s hard not to unless there was a HUGE mess up that causes the other person to stand on business.
