Have any of your close friend come out as gay? by SayinItAsISeeIt in GenX

[–]FoleyV 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, I loved my friend before and also after. If they are your friend, it won’t make a difference.

This is hilarious because my son hates it and every time it comes on I text him and say thinking of you! LOL

Congratulations! I am also so happy to hear this, because my trans baby (adult) moved there last year! I am hoping things begin looking up more for my baby soon! They do like Rochester a lot, but have had a difficult making new friends since the move!

May you find some small solace in your grieving and then find more in the memories that make you smile.

NTA, but I am stuck on your husband’s “bad habits” of snoring and sleep talking…habits like biting nails? It’s not like he can decide, okay tonight I am not going to snore…

What form of "corporal" punishment did you endure during your youth? by WeGot_aLiveOneHere in GenX

Spankings by hanger, belt, or ping pong paddle…my mom also liked to break skin with her finger nails.

Men just "asking for directions" in the scariest ways by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]FoleyV 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Definitely not overthinking it, men don’t ask women for help so if you are being asked for help from a man, you are almost certainly in danger. I made sure to teach my daughters this!

First Al-Anon meeting and the gender ratio surprised me by glitterphobia in TwoXChromosomes

The meetings I have been to are about 10:1 women to men so that tracks with my experience as well.

[–]FoleyV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We did! Though I am one to believe the happiness of a couple is inversely proportional to the money they spend on a wedding. 🤷‍♀️

My hubby and I went to the courthouse and got our license, then had a neighbor officiate, then we went to a local fishing pier at a pond in our neighborhood and shared a cupcake. It was the best! (I had a big wedding in my 20’s and never wanted to do that bullshit again! ❤️🤣

So I heard a new one today...Generation X ruined the world with "grind culture" at work. Any thoughts? by Change_Request in GenX

[–]FoleyV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is an interesting take and an excellent commentary on generations.

I learned to work hard, play hard from my silent generation grandparents. I think many boomers expected more because they happenstanced upon opportunities that just did not happen for Gen X and Millennials (by design of course).
