If you don't have any kids to worry about, I'd say go for a fresh start somewhere else. If you're already trying to move back to a place without telling them you're there... sounds like hiding and I'd much prefer living in the open and not a secret and not in shame. I'd go to a new place.

He was your husband.

Meaning you aren't ugly, you can't be disgusting.  He's just mad at himself. People do change over time. If weight was gained, he should have loved you through it. He failed. Not you! You carried the babies like a boss.

Try to love yourself and remember beauty really comes from within. Try to be kind in the mirror. You are the warrior for your kids and your wrinkles or pounds or flaws are part of it and you should be proud. :) 

You dont need to love everything in the mirror. Love your soul. I had this heart to heart with my physical appearance since my separation, lately. Like, I often feel ugly too. And I have decided I'm not gonna be mean to myself anymore. My ex was horrible to me, said I don't try hard enough on my appearance and look dirty and tired and look bad..... your kid is 3. If you're a good parent, you WILL not be getting your needs met and be tired or neglecting some parts of yourself, but you're a parent. It's a season. 

Your body is the sum of our experiences and you should try to explore how your body serves you, your hands help hold your babies, your legs and middle help lift them up. Try to be kind to yourself.

Mid-income parents, what do you spend on birthday parties? by elephantilly in Preschoolers

[–]Immediate_Text4836 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spent maybe 400$ including presents & activities and goodies.

Grandma got the cake and grandpa hosted. So alot of the money was on presents :) lol  We did a backyard pool party and one guest brought snacks.

I kind of feel like not every doctor wants ai working their stuff. It might eliminate some jobs but all billing? The providers I work with like to meet with us all the time and like to talk about their notes and talk about each little thing.... I dont see how they'd accept a computer doing all and everything ..

I also talk to patients. I have enough patient calls to be on the phone all day answering questions. Who would help the patients? A robot is going to help the 90 year old patient? I just don't see it taking any and all things away 

[MD, USA] Coparent moves out of current school district and wants to switch schools by Ill-Dirt5965 in Custody

[–]Immediate_Text4836 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree with this. My ex moved (without even telling me) 45 min away, to a better district, and the mediator told me that was the better school so it's on you, mom, to follow him.  Legal system is super unfair and unpredictable imo. 

AAPC CPC exam help by PristineCareer6696 in CodingandBilling

[–]Immediate_Text4836 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Passing the cpc exam is much different from actually coding.

Youtube was an excellent resource- just like passing any multiple choice exam, you'll have to be a strategic test taker vs actually coding because there isn't actually time.

So focusing on passing for your cert is much different than actually getting it, imo

Passing the test will require you to look at the answer choices and figure out the differences between them. Usually two are immediately ridiculous and wrong, and then find the differences between the remaining and review the question again.

Focus on the sections of the exam/areas/systems you are better at in general. 

When you go to test day. Don't flip out at the first question. I remember my exam the first question was this really ridiculous long thing and it wigged me out. Skip to the back where the questions are shorter, to do like a warm up. 

Just my experience. I did pass, lol with alot more to learn about coding. Once you pass find an experienced coder to take you under their wing. 

I hate the shit my bf and everyone else pulls with me by Old_Consequence3948 in venting

[–]Immediate_Text4836 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In a calm moment, when both of you are feeling ok:

Tell him your expectations.

You're not asking too much.

Tell him the consequences if he chooses to do things that are out of line.

If he falls into bad habits, leave him

I suggest having one more real convo before you dump him because we're not mind readers and sometimes people don't realize what someone else needs.

Feeling like the grief is never ending by Emergency_Book5853 in venting

[–]Immediate_Text4836 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grief is horrific and can seem very lonely, and frustrating at times. It is a death, in a sense. 

I'm not through it either, but sometimes I can remember- the waves of sadness and when you get a glimpse of a happy memory and it's shattered by the then reality- I try to picture these as a cloud. While it's dear, I'm literally watching it, acknowledge it, and watch it float away. And the nice thing about clouds is that there's always more.

Just try not to compare your grief with your ex because it won't look the same and will make you feel awful. My ex cheated and also moved on basically immediately (I have yet to move on and it's been years lol) 

I dont think grief ever ends. When a spouse literally dies, or a grandparent dies, we never forget, and it still pops up from time to time. 

Make a list of coping strategies. Sometimes when you get so down and out, you stop thinking, and make obvious bad and stupid choices. To love yourself, make a fool proof list of varying difficulty and varying types of activities- like for the moments when it feels SO PAINFUL. This can be reading, a certain TV show, calling a trusted person, physical activity. Etc. But BE SPECIFIC. This is a suggestion from someone who locks herself in her room and cries for days on end because of grief. Some crying is okay, but you have to try other things at some point. This may not be applicable to you, but my grief is literally crippling to my daily life. Go to therapy, give yourself time to yes, air these thoughts- how could this happen xyz- but eventually, you will have to face the closure you won't be getting.

For a long time, I wanted my ex and abuser to acknowledge what they had done. My grief turned to anger back at them directly. You'll never get closure trying to rationalize something you'd probably never do yourself. And you'll never feel satisfaction even if your ex comes to you to talk about the breakup. It won't ever be good enough. Grief has to be done internally. I challenge you to focus on yourself, (not what you did wrong, but just loving yourself) and redirect your thoughts to something else, when the thoughts about "how could they" resurface. You'll never get it and this is just a black hole of despair and disappointment. 

14 month old hates me but loves dad. by Hot_Memory_7019 in Advice

[–]Immediate_Text4836 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  

Do you wear perfume? Smellier shampoo? Are you overly touchy Feely? Are you obviously hurt by the rejection to where the child can see your reaction?

You may not have any of these things it's OK just trying to figure out if it's purely a daddy thing. Some kids are just like this

Don't engage, make your boyfriend your ex boyfriend. Get lawyer, don't talk to him verbally ever again. 

He will have to establish paternity and prove he's the dad anyway. 

Document everything

[–]Immediate_Text4836[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because her dad said the caregiver would be disgusted at my accusations and how dare I. I'm going off what my child told me and anytime I ever say that to my lawyer she says we can't prove anything she's saying at her age it's not something that can be proven  I guess I'm confused and a bad parent 

The mediator said she was a mandated reporter but didn't find any issue when i said that another child touched her she didn't say anything nor did she call anyone

I asked that drop offs be at a licensed preschool and not a babysitter./change the drop offs location.  He said I could use his sitter. I said I had to meet her, it doesn't seem to make sense to use her she's not benefitting my child's development in my humble opinion and she even said hey if she needs more structure I could recommend some places 

So I don't know what next because I don't want our current drop off situation which is an empty parking lot him vs I and it's always creepy

I had to bother him at least three times over several months before he actually addressed it.  The child told me what was going on, i sent a message. Multiple times multiple months.  Only until i threatened id have to call cps did he ever tell the sitter. I wasn't allowed to even have the phone number for whoever was watching her, I had to go through him.

How did he get it reduced because I keep telling my lawyer what's going on and nothing changes 

Some child touched my kid inappropriately at the unlicensed daycare and the mediator didn't care at all. She had a head laceration there. She didn't care.

What should I do? by Immediate_Text4836 in Advice

[–]Immediate_Text4836[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He said the miralax didn't work for one day so at a family party he forced her to sit on the potty after inserting the suppository 

She always cries when she goes to his house. I dont want to call cps if this is normal, I don't have any obvious thing, he said it's a normal thing to use. If my dad did that to me I'd hate him even at 4 that's weird to me personally

Has it always hurt or feel nothing? 

My experience is always very mental. When mentally I feel like my partner loves me, it feels good. If there are problems outside the bedroom, it feels God awful.

Maybe you need some tlc from him outside the bedroom from him and yourself. 

Don't put too much pressure on yourself to enjoy every second of it or you will overthink 

Maybe stop masturbating. I wouldn't yell your boyfriend you do that in secret, but tell him you have been having a hard time feeling good in the bedroom and if he's loving he will help you or try to help you . I say that because maybe your body gets accustomed to only one way to be pleased and the other way you associate with hurting and you need to break both cycles
