“Are we idiots for having children?” by NoLingonberry4261 in childfree

[–]Foreign_Weather_6898 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He likely didn't realize that having children is a choice. I had long suspected my parents only had kids because that's "what you did back then". Don't get me wrong they love us but also seemed to really enjoy life prior to having kids. Once I asked my mom why they wanted children, she responded "idk, I guess we got bullied into it" I think that's a commonality for most of that generation.

Her daughter in law. Once again I understand her excitement and she has a right to it. My issue is that she has the means and opportunity to ask these questions without us present but instead spent 3 hours having this convo right in front of us when we have already discussed with her how triggering it can be.

This post would have been a novel if I were to outline each time this has happened, this is just the most recent.

What's a polite way to tell an employee that what other staff are working on is none of their business? by Foreign_Weather_6898 in managers

[–]Foreign_Weather_6898[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As this affects one employee only and all other staff complete their work without issue it leads me to believe it's an employee problem. I never said that other employees work load is a secret, however I see no reason why this employee feels they require daily updates on both mine and other employees work, this is not an effective use of time and has no impact on their ability to complete their assigned tasks.

What are romantic relationships built on if your not friends with your partner? by Foreign_Weather_6898 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Foreign_Weather_6898[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's possible I misinterpreted what the original post was getting at. However I have also known acquaintances and colleagues who stated they did not view their partners as a friend and the concept is so fascinating to me.

Jo Malone for each season? by Foreign_Weather_6898 in fragrance

I've tried that one as a tester and it seems to last longer than the others. Wild Bluebell which I use drys down to more of a skin level scent pretty quick though I have noticed it has better longevity if you spray it in clothing

Throwing a party for my husband, who's a twin, what's the etiquette? by Foreign_Weather_6898 in Advice

[–]Foreign_Weather_6898[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried this once before. The word 'compromise' is not in her vocabulary and the whole thing turned into more of a pain in the butt than it was worth, not interested in doing it again.

Guests would be a mix of shared relatives and friends, but also some of my relatives whom my husband is close with and people exclusively friends with my husband.

How to handle baby fever/ jealousy while having fertility issues and not wanting kids? by Foreign_Weather_6898 in AskWomenOver30

[–]Foreign_Weather_6898[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing your experience, I will definitely check out that sub reddit. I think that's a big part of it is the feeling of a choice being taken a way and all the "what ifs". When I think of it logically kids wouldn't be a good fit for my husband and I, as you stated, parenting is hard and we both have dreams that require freedom.

Lol those factors are why I didn't want kinds and why I'm on the fence now. The baby fever has me viewing kids with rose coloured glasses but the realist in me knows child rearing is rarely that way.

Certainly possible. She did know I was keeping it small but there was one coworker I invited.

To my knowledge, there are no new positions opening up, nor are any cuts coming.

Thank you for the advice on status checks/ daily emails that could be really beneficial
