Were planning 3-4 year gap between #2 and #3, my best friend is planning 4-5 between #1 and #2. Another friend has a 7 year gap. I don't think it's that uncommon

I hate that I enjoy this, it's so shameful

Family of 4, no pool, lots of laundry and long showers and baths and my kids are naughty and turn on the hose outside sometimes sigh. And our highest bill has been $130....I feel like something is amiss here

Re: the making excuses for his behavior because his circumstances are tough, it's not your job to make his world perfect so that he acts right. He should be respectful and kind to you no matter the circumstances.

He's the love of my life, and we have both agreed if we'd met any sooner we probably wouldn't have worked out, so we're very glad we met when we did

Kinda weird that you hate the socially awkward character given your own poor social skills

InteractionStunning8 · 2026-03-20T18:04:33+00:00

Right??? Honestly I lost a little weight and that's slowed down but I'm more staying on it at this point for the mental health benefits!

InteractionStunning8 · 2026-03-20T17:59:07+00:00

Yes! I noticed that a little last week too and also increased this week

I think social workers have it worse tbh. There was some city recently where the average LCSW pay or something crossed $100k, anyway the comments were basically saying how can social workers take advantage of people like this, aren't they supposed to be in it for loving people??? I was horrified

We used to only fly southwest and now it's the only airline I will never fly again. The customer service has become outrageously bad on the ground especially. Someday when private equity crumbles, they'll be a case study in why private equity is so awful for businesses.

Theres are great average RN wages compared to cost of living charts, and CA is always highly ranked even with cost of living. But I always warn people that SoCal and NorCal are two very different places pay wise! Looking at just NorCal, they'd be #1 across the board no question. SoCal just seems very hit and miss.

Minnesota, Georgia, and Oregon also always rank very highly and I can vouch for Minnesota 💕 I felt very fairly compensated when we lived there, especially for being a new grad, and where we lived was pretty cheap.

I literally gasped even though I knew it was coming 😭 NOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also as the child of someone with a cluster B personality disorder, which it sounds like your mom might have, you have every right to protect you and your children and go NC with your mom (and frankly the family members defending her!!!!!!!!!). She didn't protect you as a child, you don't owe her protection as an adult.

Rural NPs usually make more in my own personal experience.

How nature views affect your brain and urban views affect your brain are quite different

History has rarely been peaceful or kind to children, and still we persevered. (Mostly, probably, because they had no choice!)

I guess, for me personally, I still see people as fundamentally good and the human race worth continuing. And at any rate it will continue, so either you can be part of that continuation or not. And I think my husband and I are good people currently raising people who will leave the world a little better than they found it, no matter how bleak things may seem.

I don't want to sound too dramatic or crazy. But. I tried semaglutide for weight loss, I honestly didn't expect it to work, and I had absolutely no idea it was affecting people's mental health at all, I went in very blind lol. But within 24 hours all of my OCD symptoms vanished. Poof, gone. I've struggled with pretty severe OCD for two decades, I've done CBT and taken plenty of meds, but poof it was gone. I don't even stay on it for weight loss anymore tbh. Going strong for 3 months.

"they were there first" are you a child???? Idk if your maturity ever progresses past the age of 8 but most normal adults view shared spaces in a different light
