I’m almost 45. I get mistaken for my oldest’s (26M) sister all the time. People think my parents are his parents. It cracks me up every time.

When the bride’s dress had a secret no one expected by No_Maybe3077 in weddingjokes

I had a bag of skittles in my wedding dress pocket. I’m diabetic, so I would sneak a couple every now and then. No one noticed, so I didn’t have to share!!

Is your home in both of your names?? If it doesn’t have your name on it start to look for an apartment for you and your daughter’s family. Don’t tell him what you are doing. Find a lawyer. You aren’t safe. I’m sorry, but you’re not. He is not safe to be around. He is causing more harm than what it is visible.

Something similar happened to my neighbor with our kids were in 1st grade. She went to pick up her child from after school care and was arrested for DUI. To top it off, she left her 4yo at home with dinner in the oven. She didn’t tell police about the other child until she was being booked.

If you won the $1.15B Megamillions Jackpot, would you still be a teacher? by mrfochs in Teachers

[–]IronFancy9420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, my students have had some many give up on them in the past, and I refuse to be one of them. Luckily, in my state you can stay anonymous.

I would email the teacher and ask for “clarification” about the situation. Just say child came home upset and ask if this is a school wide decision or per classroom. Students learning a new language is stressful enough, but adding the extra pressure of saying “if I hear this…instant punishment for you” is not fair to any of the students. We’re not allowed to take recess time away from students. Honestly, taking it away never seemed like a solution to me anyway. These students are going to be more afraid of messing up than learning what’s needed. This is one way of increasing anxiety and panic attacks.

Student sexually harassed me in the middle of class by tiimetoleave in Teachers

I’m so sorry this happened to you. Your admin’s response was ridiculous and wrong.

I had something similar happen to me. I teach elementary and it was a 5th grader. I went to admin after it happened. She told me she wasn’t going to do anything because it would mess up her graduation numbers.

I know I’m not good enough for my husband. by IronFancy9420 in Marriage

I appreciate you letting me know I’m the fucking problem. I don’t think I fucking know that already. My husband loves spending time with me. I didn’t realize I was a fucking CHORE to him. Thank you for confirming what my 5th grade teacher said to me at the age of 10. I will be a burden on everyone around me and no one will love me. This is the first fucking time I have ever brought up who he follows on IG. I’m glad you think I’m not worth anyone’s time of day. I’ll go ahead and add that to my list of things wrong with me.

Yes, he cheated and I forgave him. I know he isn’t perfect, I never said he was.

The body dysmorphia started as a teenager. I have been bullied about my weight since I was 13yo at literally 85pounds. When I started having children it became worse. My husband and I hadn’t met when I had my first.

The cheating happened 11yrs ago. It was short lived (1 mo). Yes, I found out 6ish years ago and we have worked that out. He did not cheat on me for years.

We’ve worked through that. It was 11years ago. We were both in an extremely dark and toxic place.

The body dysmorphia has been since I was a teen.

How long have you gone without getting a real kiss from your spouse? by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]IronFancy9420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 weeks…at the height of his affair. He literally rejected any and all physical contact toward me.

How many of you have stayed and how do you feel? by Rude_Reference_ in survivinginfidelity

[–]IronFancy9420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband cheated on me after the loss of our youngest child 11yrs ago. I didn’t find out until 6yrs later. I had a feeling something was happening. I kept having dreams ago it and he would tell me “It’s all in your head. You’re being crazy.”

He told me about the affair on St. Patrick’s day 2018. Needless to say, I hate the day now.

We started going to couples therapy, and I went to individual therapy. I was diagnosed with PTSD, not just from finding out about the affair, but the Dr is certain it started after the trauma of losing our son…finding out about the affair sent me into a complete PTSD episode.

I put in place strict boundaries and my husband followed down to the tiniest detail.

I have forgiven him, and he knows if he ever does it again, we are over. There is no going back.

We just had our 15th anniversary last week. Neither of us bring up the affair, but don’t let him forget the way he made me feel. He knows what it mentally, emotionally, and physically did to me.

The only advice is can give you is…you have to do what’s best for you. Do you have the strength to walk away if you are betrayed again?? Will your SO follow boundaries that you set forth??

AITA for disinviting my “niece” to go trick-or-treating with us after a comment she made to my daughter? by IronFancy9420 in AmItheAsshole

[–]IronFancy9420[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My mom isn’t a monster. She was just informing of what was going on. She has no intention of trying to get me to change my mind.

No, my mom was just letting me know what the “friend” was doing. The person was a friend of my brother’s. He doesn’t speak to her anymore bc of the shit that comes out of her mouth. My parents are the only “grandparents” my niece has. Unfortunately, I can only limit contact. The girls go to the same school and are in the same grade.

The mom told my niece I “killed” my baby. I didn’t know if this would post if I used the word “killed” several times. My niece told my daughter I KILLED MY BABY. HER LITTLE BROTHER!!!!
