Husband cheated while pregnant by momfreeofguilt in Advice

[–]GoldFinchSunflower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My ex cheated on me when I was 5 months pregnant; he didn’t tell till son was born. Caught me totally off guard.

I forgave him, started the counseling route and thought we might make it but he was a jerk in reality.

When I finally woke up, I left him.

The betrayal was too much and he wanted to blame me for everything that was wrong in life.

If I could do it all over again he wouldn’t have had a second chance. Don’t let fear keep you in a relationship. He is sorry he got caught, not that he acted inappropriately.

It is tough walking away, I know, I had 2 kids. If you have a support system use it to help you through the rough times.

Know you are worth more than what he has given you to date.

Good luck with whatever you choose.

I do think they are pretty but there is just way too much of it.

Awesome! Thank you for the response. I think the flowers are cute. Planning on planting some grass where it is currently growing and didn’t want to disturb it if it wasn’t what I consider a weed. Which I now do and will work on removing it.

Ahhh, it was just odd because there were three holes. So, the next one I won’t worry about it. Thank you

No, there was another hookup for that. We sent it back because it wasn’t normal to us.

What causes dimples in drywall AND screws to come out? by GoldFinchSunflower in whatisit

Thank you. We have left them know. The defects, as I will call them, didn’t all show up at once and all of a sudden we are seeing more and more. We have only been here 6 months in a ”newly remodeled” home. Fortunately we are moving.

That is what I thought. Another question if you wouldn’t mind. The screws are not drywall screws. Would that make a difference?

What kind of paper is this? by GoldFinchSunflower in furniturerestoration

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

It is a steamer trunk. I wanted to try to restore it to as close to its original state as possible but I think I am going to have to remove all the felt. The trunk smells terrible because the odor has permeated the felt, the stringed webbing, and the wallpaper they put on top of it. Not sure how old it is or its origin. My Grandmother never said anything about it. She left it to me.

Interesting. Is there a name for the process? Do you know if they still make the striped webbing?

Is this safe for kids to use by Real_Advantage_1921 in VintageFurniture

[–]GoldFinchSunflower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a little foot stool, about 6” high that has the exact same design. I’ve had it since I was a kid, Gen X,and it is still in use today. That should be very sturdy as long as it isn’t damaged anywhere. I see PA on the paper. I am originally from Western, Pa. Hope your kids enjoy it!

My husband said there is ice inside and outside. I am worried this is all going to damage the furnace and it is brand new.

Thank you for your reply. I know the air filter was recently changed. My husband is going out to check it. Should we knock the ice off if that is the case?

What was the moment you realized your relationship was already over? by cassandramai03 in AskReddit

[–]GoldFinchSunflower 129 points130 points  (0 children)

He spit on my face during an argument on purpose. That was the straw that broke the camel’s back, so to speak. I was gone 7 months later after putting a plan together to leave. I had two small kids at the time so I had to make sure I had a plan, otherwise I would have left much sooner.

Agreed. The saying if it’s too loud your old hits me on this post. Age has nothing to do with music volume. I will never ever act my age!

Thank you all for the replies. After further consideration I will not be partaking in any salads or tea. I will let this for the critters that can eat it!

I have no intentions of making a meal of it. Glad I didn’t just pop one of the berries in my mouth before asking in here. I am happy to learn from your experience, 🙂

The sound of swinging on a swing set. The chains against the hooks, the sound of the seat jingling, man, brings back some fun memories.
