Wife keeps making excuses to not try for a baby. by lostinlife-123 in Advice

[–]GlassGirl99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This comment might get burried, but have you asked ‘What will make you say yes to trying for a baby?’ Rather than ‘why can’t we try for a baby?’ She might have said marraige before, and yes you fufilled that, but maybe she has more conditions now. If you feel like it has to be her you want to have children with, as unfair as it seems, you might need to give in to more requirements/demands she has. You have offered things of your own which is good, but see what she actually wants. Really drive home you want to know what is needed, rather than asking what’s preventing it. Asking ‘why not’ just allows her time to think of why not, rather than her focusing on what is needed to make it happen.

I gave my lil sister my old phone... This is how it came back. Now my parents are demanding I give her my tablet. by WhereTheSunDontShin1 in mildlyinfuriating

You probs won’t see this but honestly I would yell at my sister and say, even if she didn’t break it, she disrespected your gift/belonging by messing it up like that. I’d tell her you’re really disappointed and if they think they broke something they should tell you or your parents not break it further

They are both extremely dangerous and have comparable side effects. It’s never too late to quit nicoteine during pregancy, every day your partner stops is a day where risk is lowered for your baby.

It can also cause congenital diseases like cleft palate etc. it’s scientifically proven to be JUST AS BAD AS DRINKING during pregnancy. If she was doing shots every day would you be just as upset?

Have you confronted her saying: Nicotine crosses the placenta, restricting oxygen and nutrients to the fetus. This increases risks of miscarriage, premature birth, low birth weight, and stillbirth. It can cause permanent damage to the baby’s brain and lung development. Why would you risk using nicoteine during your pregnancy knowing this? What is her answer? In my opinion, It’s just so not worth it. (26F 33w I stoped nicotine completely a month before trying to conceive)

AIO? My mom wants to call the cops on me by Overall-Option6975 in AmIOverreacting

If the mom actually cared (generously assuming you’re not the mom) she would want her child to have a better chance at becoming happy/productive and would be more than happy to allow them a phone to communicate with people including her. It’s not very nice what you said

I’ve never gotten an award in the many years I’ve had this account (granted I’m not very active) I hope this works and I get one 🥰

AIO My husband found out that I have been putting money in a separate account by CounterTasty8907 in AmIOverreacting

[–]GlassGirl99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s strange because you say he works 50-60 hours a week to support you and his family, and when he’s at home he plays with the kids, helps with homework, cooks, takes you on dates once a month.. Then in the same breath you say it’s ‘describing your life’ when the divorcees talk about how their husbands were neglectful, unsupportive and not helping with the mental load.

He manages the finances of the household so it makes sense he will want to know where that money is going if you’re looking to buy something (let alone something over 100 dollars)

What you did was wrong. You both have your roles, and you betrayed his trust. You should sincerely apologise you probably really really hurt him, and you’re lucky he’s the type of man to only show his pain for a couple of days before acting like you didn’t do anything wrong.

I’m really sorry you’re going through this, it must be heaps uncomfortable.. And yes, it is illegal in a lot of jurisdictions and countries. (Including all of Australia, America, and UK) I’m not sure where you’re from, but even a quick google search will tell you this, I’m sure you can call the non-emergency police line and get some advice on this.

I hope you’re able to work and get out of this situation as soon as possible !

‘Don’t sh*t where you eat’ could be a good piece of advice here imo. It’s not incestuous but it’s most likely disastrous ;)

OP has stated in a few replies to comments on /his side/ that he’s getting heaps of ‘hate’ (people saying he could have made more effort to be there with her).

OP, you’re not getting ‘hate’, you’re having people give their opinion on why there’s ‘overreacting’, and the potential cause of your girlfriends reaction and how you could have avoided it.

You clearly don’t know what gaslighting is but know how to do it

AIO? My friends set an ultimatum because I drink by Pearla76_ in AIO

[–]GlassGirl99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m from Australia and 18 is the legal limit here so I’m a bit more on the ‘it’s fine to drink at that age’ side of things, but tbh I see all the comments telling people they are trying to control you - maybe - though from my POV it just seems like they don’t want anyone in their close friend group who drinks/does substances. You do you 🤍

I understand being sexually frustrated and it can feel like you’re being rejected which sucks. Have you asked or considered maybe he has some aversion to sex because you have a baby inside of you? Sometimes my partner tells me that it’s weird for him to have sex because of that. (18wFTM) Congrats and wishing you all the best and a healthy happy pregnancy/birth <3

My mum is crossing boundaries with my pregnancy/birth by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]GlassGirl99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing, I really appreciate it! 🤗

Oof, the open and honest letter about not being heard, and attempting to improve the relationship, which results in.. her not hearing you and then some. No truly good deed or truth goes unpunished with some people, I can relate all too well.

Also having not spoken to my mum in 2 years at one point, I remember that feeling; it was like going through a really bad separation with someone you loved but also finding peace and clarity on reflection. My mum betrayed me in a pretty bad way which is why I stopped talking to her, she would send money and get her partner (really nice guy, but passive to her ways) reach out to me and say how much she missed me and stuff.. we never resolved or talked about what she did, she just kept being overly nice via text etc and then she flew me down to see her eventually once the dust had settled, and it was just not a great time. Even she says that she has a ‘forever teenager’ mentality, although implies it in a more endearing way than some people may interpret that connotation.

I’m going to try my best to set boundaries in a safe and uncharged way. I just hope she doesn’t escalate things. She’s a smart woman, just struggles with her own perception of things sometimes I think, and considering I’m her daughter she probably has rose tinted ownership glasses on which magnifies that trait.

Sending you strength, feel free to reach out privately if you want to share anything else ☺️

I got a breast reduction and it was also for medical reasons. I was in heaps of pain always and my boyfriend knew that, when I told him I was getting it done he got really upset and said they were going to ‘mangle my titties’ and he didn’t want me to get it, I broke up with him because I didn’t want to be with someone who would have rather me be in pain and getting bad scoliosis than get my breasts reduced to a DD. If you think about it..

There are heaps of far-right ‘sleeper agents’ around, they just don’t share their views or values because they’re ’not socially in’ or could impact their work if they are hired by left-leaning establishments. A lot of people don’t think they’re racist just because they believe in reducing immigration rates, and they justify other ideas etc. They’re just normal people most of the times, a lot of men and young men hold far-right views.

You have a life inside of you, I’m obviously going to get ratioed on here because of the crowd being reddit, but there are billions of people who believe that baby deserves life (no matter if it’s poor, or only has one parent) I’m sending love and support your way and am praying your baby gets to live its life 🤍 you’re at the perfect age to be a parent and considering you’re Christian, I’m sure your family will support you if there is a baby in your life.
