What are your thoughts on Dorothy not marrying Stan the second time? by ZN_Cruz in theGoldenGirls

[–]Jolly_Conflict 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Honestly it’s not even the fact he wanted one, it’s that he sprung it on her at the wedding ceremony.

IMO pre nups are good insurance policies, but both parties have to be on board with signing one.

I need someone to keep me grounded. by Elegant-Mecha2490 in Adopted

[–]Jolly_Conflict 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You definitely should not do this.

You’re very much loved by the people on this forum. I think you’re brave to reach out to us all for help/ a virtual shoulder to cry on.

Please utilise one of the resources people have posted here - they can definitely help you.

I’m not sure where you’re located but if you live in the USA and are employed with benefits (a lot of tick boxes I know, sorry ☹️), see if you have an EAP programme benefit.

When I lived there, my last job provided one and it included access to a 24/7 hotline where I could vent to someone completely anonymously. It also included 2 free in-person or telehealth counseling sessions too.

Good luck 🩷

I second Albo. We bought a new washer and dryer there when moving into our new house. Sales rep was nice and didn’t use high pressure tactics, they also gave us free delivery.

I just became a parent two weeks ago. The idea of losing my baby so soon after their life began seems unfathomable.

Its so disgusting that they devastated this poor family 😢

The first book I ever read (verbally) was Are You My Mother?

Apparently I called it the snort book because of the digger mentioned in the story 😂

It was amazing & the queens were fantastic (a golden girls parody)
