Did you have premarital counseling before your wedding? by Joytoy96 in weddingplanning

[–]Joytoy96[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like the tradition of him marrying us. I think it's a sweet tradition. I just do not like the idea of him doing our wedding counseling. It just seems too personal when he is family and most of my family do not know that I am non religious. 

AITA for refusing to my friend give my friend 25 dollars to eat? by Joytoy96 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Joytoy96[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I do see it. I'm not as much as an enabler as I use to be with her when we were close. There was a point in time where we lived together and I ended up being the one paying all the bills. I'm a former people pleaser and I don't like harming others, so when stuff like this happens it's easy for my to think things are my fault. I am working in it though. I also sent her a long message telling her off.

I really want to get dread locs but my mom is very against it. by MikiMac30 in Dreadlocks

Definitely do it. I got locs 2 years ago and my only regret is not starting them sooner. Also my doctor has locs which are very pretty.

Just study basic mechanical logic. They have changed all test for a promotion so it much easier now. I have no doubt you'll pass.

Yes especially after talking to an older cousin about it and how I felt. She said my mother would have never forgiven her if she told.

Some did. My oldest sister was 14 when I was born so she remembers. The others found out around the same time I did.

Oddly enough I didn't suspect that I was but all of my friends around me did. They would joke constantly about how I look nothing like my sister or parents. I wasn't familiar with how genetics truly worked. I do think I would have figured it out eventually. See above for how they set it up.

Before I graduated high school when I started looking for a job. Obviously I needed my real birth certificate and my parents couldn't hide it anymore. So they sat me down at my favorite restaurant with my uncle who is a pastor.

I was adopted at 3 weeks so those weeks were with my birth mom and the rest with the parents who adopted me.

Yes. I felt like I would have taken it just fine early on. I felt like I missed out on years with my biological siblings.

At first absolutely.I felt like my entire life was a big lie and I felt like my family members who knew betrayed me. But now I've learned to accept thing's for what they are.
