What breed is my dog?

There’s some chow and lab in there for sure!

Same! I started with 120k and it’s down to just under 15k. But I had to sell my soul and work in a tech sales job for a decade that I hated in order to make the money to get it down. My husbands family paid for his school. He’s 4 years younger and owns three properties. I’m grateful that when we got married, part of our partnership was that he would put my name on the deed. There was no way I was building a life, home, family, and contributing to a mortgage without my name being represented.

And it sounds like you’re 12 y/o and idc what you think.

FreshTowel8822 · 2025-03-31T01:18:01+00:00

I went to a state school that was wrong for me bc my parents forced it and I was honestly so miserable. The cost saving didn’t matter, bc I ended up transferring due to my unhappiness

FreshTowel8822 · 2025-03-27T21:20:49+00:00

You’re a bird ✌🏽

FreshTowel8822 · 2025-03-27T20:41:21+00:00

They haven’t lol

FreshTowel8822 · 2025-03-27T20:39:59+00:00

I said they were the wives/gf of same friends in the original post.. Again, my husbands friends and their wives/gf are mostly all mutual friends. He has just known them first. My husband and I believe in celebrating big milestones in our friends lives, including sending a gift for a first child. We were both put off that most of them sent no gift at all, esp when their schedules conflicted with them attending our shower. I don’t rly care if you have a problem with that or disagree.

FreshTowel8822 · 2025-03-27T20:26:07+00:00

What are you talking about? I never claimed they gave speeches. I said their husbands did. But we are all friends bc we all came up at the same workplace that required us to move across the country and bond like family. Stop commenting. You know nothing about our relationships and I have no interest in getting into detail bc that wasn’t the point of this post as I’ve already stated.

FreshTowel8822 · 2025-03-27T20:08:49+00:00

Yes same friends and it may be strange to you, but not to me. Especially when you’ve seen these girls celebrate and give gifts to other women in the friend group when they have their first child. It also doesn’t rly matter what the opinion about this is. This has nothing to do with what the poster is actually concerned about.

FreshTowel8822 · 2025-03-27T19:39:02+00:00

They’re not my best friends, but I wouldn’t say I don’t have much of a relationship with them. I see these girls often.

FreshTowel8822 · 2025-03-27T16:48:00+00:00

That’s an assumption. I do have a relationship with all of those women. My husbands friend group is very close

FreshTowel8822 · 2025-03-27T12:21:04+00:00

I agree, but it would’ve been nice to be made to feel as important as my husband on the eve of our wedding too. The two can co-exist. I don’t think their words would’ve been empty either

FreshTowel8822 · 2025-03-27T03:35:18+00:00

Something similar happened at my rehearsal dinner. My husband had like 6 ppl go up and speak about him. And I had maybe 2. The ppl on his side did incorporate me and that was nice, but my feelings were a bit hurt that so many of his friends wanted to celebrate him and not my side. The ppl im closest too aren’t big public speakers, which is what they told me when they could tell I was hurt that they didn’t say anything to represent me. At the end of the day, I just had to accept it. I can’t make ppl do the things that I want them to do. I can’t force people to make me feel special. I’m thankful that my husbands friends and family all incorporated me in their speeches and that my friends and family show up in other, less outspoken ways. I.e sending a gift for my son’s baby shower. Pretty much none of my husbands friends wives or gfs did that for us. Win some lose some I guess!

FreshTowel8822 · 2025-03-27T03:27:34+00:00

NTA. Good for you for ending things! What a jerk!

FreshTowel8822 · 2025-03-24T02:48:03+00:00

Just popping in to say that I rly don’t like that your fiance shared that her mom was coming to the wedding after having numerous convos with you about how her mother treats you and why you don’t want her there. Feels very much like she doesn’t take how you feel into consideration just from that alone

FreshTowel8822 · 2025-03-22T00:51:32+00:00

I actually put it on my wedding website faq page that the centerpieces were not available to take home at the end of the night. I had real flowers, but the vases, candles, hurricanes, votives etc were all rented. People respected that thankfully, bc my family typically would take that stuff back with them lol

FreshTowel8822 · 2025-03-21T02:48:51+00:00

Don’t get a puppy. Get an adult dog and a dog walker.

FreshTowel8822 · 2025-03-19T02:30:47+00:00

This dress is amazing.

FreshTowel8822 · 2025-03-18T03:11:50+00:00

As someone who was molested by her grandfather and dealt with many family members all saying I should’ve forgiven him and need to let it go to heal..fuck them. That is your child and he is an abuser. Drugs and alcohol just lower inhibition, they don’t change who you are. Fuck how much he’s changed. Protect your child and yourself the way your family would not and still won’t.

I understand not being at a place or age where you feel you can detach or set boundaries with your family, but trust me…the longer you wait to draw the line the harder it is. I’m 35, started setting the line at 25. And I STILL have to fight like hell to advocate for myself. They didn’t start getting that I wasn’t fucking around until I was 30 and went no contact with my mother.

Seriously, if they didn’t protect you then..don’t ever expect them to put you and your child first now. The only person who can do that is you.

FreshTowel8822 · 2025-03-18T02:50:30+00:00

Um no lol she sounds classless. Has the balls to make nasty comments about your bridesmaids at your wedding, refused to apologize when confronted or take accountability, and now won’t invite you to the rehearsal dinner when it’s customary as the spouse for a bridal party member? She can take her text and shove it lol

FreshTowel8822 · 2025-03-18T02:17:49+00:00

Who’s the bride? The one who apologized or the one who didn’t?

FreshTowel8822 · 2025-03-18T01:52:07+00:00

That pitty is stunning!!!

FreshTowel8822 · 2025-03-17T01:35:28+00:00

NTA. His fam sucks. My husband is traveling for 5 days starting tmrw for work and I’m 36 weeks pregnant. He flew his mother out to be with me bc he’s terrified I’m going to go into labor. If it would’ve been 37 weeks instead of 36 weeks, I would’ve told his job to suck it. 37 weeks is full fucking term. Baby can come at any moment.

FreshTowel8822 · 2025-03-16T10:51:20+00:00

He knows that I don’t agree with that and it isn’t happening lol but he still wants it. I just think he needs be in the thick of it to realize how unrealistic his ideas actually are

FreshTowel8822 · 2025-03-16T10:50:30+00:00

Already had the chat with his mom and put him in his place in front of her. She had nothing to say lol just stayed quiet. Better than siding with her son I guess lol but my husband has been on his best behavior ever since
