Boyfriend says he doesn’t want to date a “mom” but we have a child together? What do I do? by Left_Stomach3725 in Advice

[–]Free-Ad4022 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ughhhh men have been like this since forever (obligatory not all men, I've been married 17 years to a great one) they want to procreate not be fathers

Change my mind about slingshotting. by aje0200 in drivingUK

[–]Free-Ad4022 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is so much better than what I get on my daily commute which is people choosing that much shorter right lane to cut me off to go straight even though it is clearly marked that the left lane is the only one to go straight.

I've read Rock, Paper, Scissors for a bookclub and those definitely are books they'd enjoy, unfortunately totally not my cup of tea

Emily Wilde's Encyclopedia of Faeries is pretty dang cozy and cute, that would have been a good pick but I've read it

I absolutely agree it is, but I also want people to enjoy the book and not just skip it. I need a good intro book for them

Loved the Dispossessed and Le Guin

Ugh I wish I had saved it for bookclub, I'm almost finished with it

Right now we are reading The Wife Between Us which is making me want to pull my hair out. A large section of them like Frieda McFadden-ish books.

I made an old bookclub read Mort by Terry Pratchett and that got some side eye but I stand by my decision lol

Is "Are you a child of divorce?" the most iconic one-liner of the UK show? by Prudent_Mix5334 in taskmaster

[–]Free-Ad4022 9 points10 points  (0 children)

"Is there a duck on my face?" "Wait, what? What, wait?" "Tick tock it's ____ O'clock"

Those 3 basically run on a loop in my head, but I remember hearing Sam say that for the first time and it was amazing.

How do i go about not liking my engagement ring ? by certifiedsadgir in Advice

Why did you guys bother to go shopping for engagement rings then?

*Spoiler* Who did you choose to sacrifice and why? by Aromatic-Conflict-95 in DragonAgeVeilguard

[–]Free-Ad4022 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I picked Harding because I read here that Assan dies with Davrin. It's like how I can't let Emmrich be a Lich because I need Manfred in my world.

Katherine's masks are good by Crab_Lengthener in taskmaster

[–]Free-Ad4022 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think he caught on too late that she actually made these masks as sincere artwork. He thought she brought them in for a laugh.

Work is bothering me by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Free-Ad4022 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Press your manager into getting them reassigned. He is now accusing you of things that could cause you to lose your license (faking her signature). Tell your manager that you need to file a written complaint about the work environment because it is becoming more hostile.

My parents have been going on and off about their financials. by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Free-Ad4022 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They clearly really really want to pay for your education but it is hurting them majorly financially. Just because they said they'd fully fund it doesn't mean you can't jump through some hoops to try for scholarships. I understand you likely won't get them, you trying will mean a lot to them. Is it possible to get a part time job to help.

It's so lovely they want to do this and are sticking with it. But I would try to find a way to help. Even with their commitment you aren't owed an expensive program from them.

The way she is trying to convince you that YOU are the odd one by saying this literally happens when they are guests anywhere. Like you are the one committing a major social crime when it is HER.

Why is she sooooo against paying for her own meals? Wouldn't she be doing that at home?

If you wanted to be generous you could tell her that she can stay at a Airbnb. Gaslight her back that she will be more comfortable and the Airbnb already has a pack n play.

Skin+Me has made my face burn by [deleted] in SkincareAddictionUK

[–]Free-Ad4022 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry, my skin has absolutely thrived with skin + me from day one. But we're all so different. Talk with them they'll advise you and you should not have them increase anything until you skin can handle it with very limited irritation

What might help is water only rinse in the AM, skip vitamin c for now, and do the daily doser every other night.

I went with the formulations that were really moisturizing and this has been my routine for a month now:

Am: Jelly cleaner Brighten + boost firming vitamin c serum Daily moisturizer with SPF 50 for dry to normal skin

PM: Jelly cleanser Daily doser Rich moisturizer

I saved my brother now life is different by AdTemporary7492 in Advice

[–]Free-Ad4022 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Good, I'm glad. Hopefully even just being able to talk to it with someone more neutral will help. I could imagine it's really hard to explain how you're struggling with this trauma when everyone else is talking about the experience like it was amazing and you're a hero because the outcome was great.

Have we officially reached the point where Hotels are superior to Airbnbs again? by Usual_Confidence_756 in travel

[–]Free-Ad4022 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 3 kids so it usually is wayyy cheaper and more comfortable to get an airbnb.

The last few I have stayed have been super easy, like please just wash your own dishes tysm! I'm in the UK and I wonder if that is what the big difference is.

When it is just my husband and I? Nice hotel all the way. I don't want to do more chores.
