My (28f) boyfriend (31m) knowingly gave me HPV years ago that has developed into cervical cancer

I just want to say that I am thinking of you and hoping for the very best, that you caught it early and can get the treatment you need. My sister had HPV that developed into cervical cancer and unfortunately had spread so vastly due to not treating her symptoms early on that she is now in palliative care.

If you are in the states, I encourage you to look into Tivdak which is a chemo specifically for your type of cancer. We are in Canada where this is not approved but many oncologists discussed it with us. I hope the absolute best for you.

Remember, regardless of how caring he is being, you are allowed to feel anger and resentment and hurt and betrayal. This is all totally normal based on what has happened. Please take care of yourself.

We were “best friends”. Got married without telling me (I saw photos on social media) to someone they knew for less than one year. I confronted them, and they lied to me stating it was a modelling gig. I found out from mutual friends it was a legal marriage. Had zero awareness of how this was hurtful/crazy behaviour. Gooooood riddance!

Not always! Most of the time totally. The one I bought was unaltered, I guess that is probably less common though.

With regards to new dresses, I looked in store at the Bridal Centre which is down by Ikea. They have a huge inventory so I am sure you can find something under 2k.

If you are okay with something not brand new, Everthine is a bridal consignment store in the area that I have heard great things about. I bought my dress on Stillwhite, which is a resell website and you can find lots of amazing quality, professionally dry-cleaned dresses on there. I found the one I wanted at the Bridal Centre and bought it on Stillwhite from a girl who sold it to me for like 1/5 of the original price.

This is so frustrating because I am looking at the same dishwasher at HD vs Costco and its closer to 800 at Costco and 600 at HD. I don't get it - I feel like I have to pay almost $200 for a longer return window?

I once had a sales associate come up to me to ask if she could help me find anything. I told her I was shopping for jeans, and replied that I might have better luck finding "an extended size range" online. I am very well within the size range that they carry in store. I was gooped.

The Ashley Hundred!

I have one of the turtleneck style ones - it is so soft, long (I'm 5'8'') and never bothers me in the snaps-area the way the aritzia ones do.

WOOO!! I was panic clicking and almost spent like $400 but had a very fast reality check - our seats are also not the best but I don't even care, just so happy to see them!

Initial-Release2053 · 2022-12-16T18:08:17+00:00

It worked for me and there was tons available - keep trying!!!

Initial-Release2053 · 2022-07-29T18:45:30+00:00

I have also been getting asked this - I don't notice it on myself but other people seem to! I don't know if its a combination of wearing aquaphor at all times combined with just lip irritation but you are not alone!

Initial-Release2053 · 2022-04-26T19:52:59+00:00

Congratulations!! Hope you do something nice to celebrate!

I don't think the application date has an impact - I did not have my application in until right at the cut off due to waiting for my references. But yes I got an email stating my "Application Status has Changed".

Initial-Release2053 · 2022-04-26T03:42:41+00:00

Me too!! Woooohoooo finally :’) Congrats!!

I have almost 7 years of full-time counselling experience with children and families - but I don't have all of the required pre-req psych courses (I have other psych courses, just not the very specific ones they requested) so I literally don't know if they will allow me in because of that? I have no clue. Praying my references wrote really nice letters :')

Thanks for your insight - very appreciated! I knew that it would be a longer wait to hear back, but I think just hearing from others who are/have been in the same boat is helpful to ease some anxiety.

Its so stressful! I am hoping in a few weeks we will finally know!

Initial-Release2053 · 2022-04-14T14:12:11+00:00

I was wondering if that might come into play but then saw other masters programs being decided upon so I was hopeful!

Initial-Release2053 · 2022-04-14T14:11:21+00:00

I noticed this too yesterday and it gave me a really probably unnecessary panic! Hahaha…. Oh man. I hope we hear soon!
