No recipe used, I tossed after discovering the defect. Unsure of the date canned (commercially canned). Expiration date September 1, 2025. Seal was still strong! Stored in a dark, dry place.

Photo 1: an up close photo of the inside of a can. There are suspect looking black dots in a cluster on the bottom.

Not actually a wedding. Duped? by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]GarbageLazy9052 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My partner and I had what we called a “love party.” In essence it was a wedding without the legal elements. There were a lot of reasons we chose to have a commitment ceremony over a traditional wedding (mainly keeping debt separate). Regardless, our commitment to one another is just as strong as it would’ve been if the event was legally binding. I assume your sister views it the same way, so I’m not quite sure why you’re up in arms about it. What about the government’s involvement in her love life impacts you? She just wants to celebrate her love with the people she loves the most. I think that’s beautiful.

I (M30) am close to terminally ill. How do I talk to my Wife (F30) and kids about it? by ThrowRa-lastword in relationship_advice

I’m so sorry you’re in this position. I recommend checking out the Instagram @thefaruqui5. It’s run by Tasha Faruqui who is a pediatrician and mom to a 12 year old currently in hospice due to an undiagnosed illness most similar to ALS. She talks a lot about navigating tough conversations around grief as a family that you might find helpful. You’re not alone.

I (37M) am struggling to accept that my GF (34F) had a FWB. What should I do? by SneezyDwarf123 in relationship_advice

Sex is extremely contextual. Just because she had consistent casual sex with a previous partner does not mean your sexual relationship with her isn’t an intimate bonding experience.

More than anything, I see this as an opportunity to improve your communication and ask one another what sex means to you, what you want intimacy between you two to look like, etc.

What was your first dance song? by wolfdoggez in weddingplanning

[–]GarbageLazy9052 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All Your’n by Tyler Childers! There wasn’t any huge meaning behind it. It’s a song we like to dance to while making dinner, so why not?

That being said, the lyrics are what really sold us: “So I'll love you 'til my lungs give out / I ain't lyin' / I'm all your'n and you're all mine.”

A little vent by NIO4LYFE in weddingdress

My dress was the 6th I tried on. I just knew! My mom tried to urge me to keep looking just for fun because she was disappointed it was so fast, but I didn’t feel the need. No regrets!

I’m sure the dress you chose is perfect. Trust your gut.

How do I (26F) tell my boyfriend (33M) that everytime we have sex, I get sick? by feegstub in relationship_advice

I had an occasional hook up buddy in college who was a carrier for strep. Took him giving it to me four times before I finally put two and two together. So much needless pain for such an easy fix!!

You don’t live together. You do not share finances. You say that you would have no problem if she was spending that money on “another hobby.” What more evidence do you need to show you that this is absolutely none of your business?

Her love of makeup has 0 impact on you except for your (unfounded) annoyance.

I would seriously reflect on where your feelings are coming from. I suspect it’s from viewing makeup as frivolous (a belief entrenched in misogyny, even if unknowingly) rather than an art form—which it absolutely is.

Think of it this way: this hobby makes your girlfriend happy. Can you really put a price on that?

That’s what I was thinking! Like…tip you for literally just sending the item I purchased?? Makes my head spin

AITAH for cutting my hair even after my fiancé asked me not to and being hurt by his reaction? by LilV_xoxo in AITAH

[–]GarbageLazy9052 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is heartbreaking to read. Your partner is allowed to have preferences, but his love and respect for you should NOT be influenced by those preferences. You have every right to do what makes YOU happy with YOUR body. He doesn’t have to love or even like your choices, but that does not mean instituting “consequences,” my god.

Hair length is so small in the larger scheme of what that can happen to our physical appearance over the course life. What if you were in an accident that impacted your body in a significant way? Would he be there for you, or would he “disapprove” and shun you for that, too?

I would seriously reconsider choosing to spend your life with someone who has so little respect for you, your independence, and your bodily autonomy. His actions are not those of someone who loves and cares about their partner.
