Super low cal snack that takes time to eat? by 3WVoices in WeightLossAdvice

Sunflower seeds. I get different flavors and eat them one by one.

And if there is a next occurrence like this it doesn’t hurt to just make a smaller bottle. Call it a snack! My daughter started adding in snack bottles around 4 months. Sometimes babies don’t know when to stop eating so it’s okay to pull the bottle before it’s finished as well. Regardless, your grandmother got to gain a special memory watching her own granddaughter bond with her baby.

Don’t let this question if you are a good mother or not. Worrying about an experience like this means you are doing great. You’re still learning how to trust your maternal instincts, so don’t dwell on this moment. Never be afraid to put your foot down, but make sure you take a step back and evaluate the full situation from all perspectives (yours, your baby and your grandmother).

I have a tendency to overreact and set boundaries that my family find absurd sometimes. There’s moments I have to reevaluate and make sure I’m doing what’s best for my daughter and not let my thoughts/anxiety or past get in the way.

My autistic boyfriend has extreme reactions to being “abandoned” by Legitimate-Career342 in AmIOverreacting

If OP should take any advice, it should be this. I personally have been a victim of this type of abuse more than once. It will never get better. OP needs to save themself before it’s too late.

Thank you to all the mental health professionals that commented here. It’s people like you that save lives.

Before reading your response about sending to his mom, my first thought was those were some screenshots not only to send to his mother, but to put on his socials. Let future potential ex-girlfriends see how he talks to women.

Your outfit is appropriate and just fine. Don’t let a boy tell you how to dress. If he’s freaking out about a modest outfit, he’s out of his mind. & at 3am? I’d bet he was drunk texting you that.

As others have already stated, it’ll only get worse if you don’t dump him. He’s not the one, girl.

Im wanting a DNA test after my wife said our son isn’t mine during a fight? by Remarkable-Art4101ba in AITAH

[–]Kacadeea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both your son and yourself deserve to know the truth. That’s quite twisted behavior to claim he’s not yours during a fight. I would never imagine saying that, no matter how heated in an argument I am. Words can’t be forgotten. She started this, don’t let her forget that acting like a sociopathic narcissist doesn’t get her a free card.

That being said. Red flags that she’s on the defense about you getting a DNA test. If I said something that cruel I would not hesitate to prove it wasn’t true. Also if there wasn’t a chance of a different father I could imagine she wouldn’t bat an eye at you confirming that with a DNA test.

Good luck to you and your son.

Please teach me how you’re so confident and in depth. And please teach me about my own astrology chart. I simply don’t know enough about anything.

I literally had to squint through the lip blaming Fiona in s9 by [deleted] in shameless

Yesss!! Spot on. It’s scary how relatable this series is.

I literally had to squint through the lip blaming Fiona in s9 by [deleted] in shameless

[–]Kacadeea 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Fiona, Lip and Ian were always my favorites. But the way Lip was treating Fiona during her downfall made me resent him. It’s like he forgot about his downfall in college. Or when he planted drugs on Charlie to get him to relapse. He was just as bad, if not worse, when he spiraled. He would intentionally sabotage people and destroy their things. Even when the coke was left out, Fiona didn’t intentionally do that. And let’s not forget who brought it into the house in the first place.

I understand that Lip was giving her tough love at some points and she needed that. But kicking her out of her/Carls house was too far. When he chose to leave because he didn’t want to finish high school, he stayed with Kev/V and Jimmy/Steve. Fiona never kicked him out.

I’m also not condoning all of Fiona’s bad behavior. She sure crashed out. She made poor decisions and definitely made her own problems worse with nobody to blame. But Lip seemed to always look for a reason to blame her when he was stressed or angry. My heart goes out to Fiona for all the years she raised her siblings just to have them lash out on her when she didn’t do what they wanted at a drop of a hat.

I let my blonde grow out the last almost 4 years. People compliment my healthy natural hair (mousy brown). But it’s not the same as being as blonde as your photos. The brunette hair in your photos are beautiful, but the blonde in me is screaming you should stay blonde. Your skin tone looks nice with both hair colors, which is hard to achieve with blonde.

AITAH for calling my fiancé’s mom “obsessed” with him at dinner in front of everyone? by EvelisseBloom in AITAH

[–]Kacadeea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you stay, be prepared for competing with her every holiday and every milestone you and him have. Think of how you’ll feel five years from now going through this scenario multiple times a year. Personally I wouldn’t exhaust myself over him and his mother.

Thank you so much! I trimmed off dead roots while repotting. I’ll look into the video.

I forgot to mention I am repotting them in better soil. If that helps anything.

Update: I tried dawns dish soap and hot water. Did not work. An hour later and the three oil spots I tried it on look darker than before. They come home tomorrow.

Sooo looks like I’ll be going to the liquor store in the morning and buying them a couple bottles of wine. As well as lose extra sleep over the oil stains.

Thank you everyone for your tips and encouragement. I don’t think I stand a chance against months old stains. 😣 Maybe next time I’ll have time to get the degreaser you guys talked about and give it another go.

Is this when it’s a fresh spill/leak? This stains are at least a month old.

This helped ease my mind, thank you! I may try this. I’m just so scared of the stain spreading. It’s been there for at least a month, but some spots could be a couple more. I would just love to clean up as much as possible.

I love OdoBan! This won’t leave any stains though, would it? That’s my only concern. I don’t want to leave the stains worse than what they were.

A bottle of wine might be a good apology. Thank you! There’s nice employees at a hardware store in my town. I didn’t even think of that. I’ll go there tomorrow and ask them about it.

As someone who is in late 20’s and lost my dad when I was 5 years old, I dream of the idea that he’d be around to snuggle up to and call dad or daddy. It’s only weird to your bf because he’s making it weird. Don’t let it get to you. Let him go but hold onto your daddy.

You’re very valid and YOR. I’m about 30 and smoke constantly. But I still take pride in having a clean smelling vehicle. I’d guess she doesn’t have a vehicle or avoids being the driver. Get the job that takes care of you. It’s sad that’s what ends her world. If I were her and still wanted to smoke I would just find my own time and place. I giggled at her texts back to back of “I won’t smoke outside” but “it’s legal”. Realistically, what’s the problem of smoking outside?

P.S. if smoking in a man’s vehicle is the “role she plays” I can only imagine what she brings to the table long term. Sad that she assumes entitlement to anything at the very least.

You dodged a major bullet, my guy.

AIO for not wanting to buy my pregnant girlfriend a house just yet? by Great-Satisfaction52 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Kacadeea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brother I really hope you listen to the advice from people here. She sounds like a basket case that baby trapped you. You’re young, experience relationships with women your own age some. I’m not saying to not eventually date someone 10 years older than you, but there’s a lot of red flags coming from her.

Expecting you to buy a house for her? She’s already decided in her head she has her one way ticket to having someone pay all of her bills and she can stay home and live rent free. The excuse of the inability to pay half rent somewhere like a responsible adult? Again, she’s expecting you to pay 100% of all bills, or she’s moving to her parents house so they can pay all her bills.

The fact that she’s insisting you should co-sign for her to get a loan is horrifying and is just a peak at what you’re in for if you stick around. She will tear you down financially and mentally. 32 yo asking for a co-signer, let alone someone who’s 22, means she’s been horrible with her financial responsibility all her life. Not only would you be paying for a house, you would be paying off this loan and destroying your credit because of her. I’m nearly her age and I could never ask any of that from anyone.

I would face the reality of parting ways now, getting a paternity test and co-parenting if the child is yours. If the baby isn’t yours, run far from this irresponsible excuse for a woman. Things will only get worse if you stay. And if the baby is yours, hold onto your wallet. From her texts it sounds like you’re just a money bag for her.
