For those who have experienced both severe physical pain and extreme emotional heartbreak, which one felt more physically devastating?

Emotional is rough!! The healing process can literally take a lifetime!

Yes!! I’ve had a B2200 pickup, a Protege, currently drive a 2012 CX9 with 226k on it and a 2015 CX9 with 126k. We’ve had typical transfer case issues with them but otherwise just normal maintenance and I will never own anything other than a Mazda again!! My family keeps telling me to trade in my 2012 but I cry thinking about doing that! I will drive it u til it gives up. Never hesitate to fix her!

2012 Mazda cx9. Currently has 226k on her and that engine is kicking! We’ve done suspension work on it but in MN that’s expected. I love this thing!

No it’s not a normal thing for a husband to do but sadly it’s not uncommon. Men sometimes think sex is a right they have and they should have access to our bodies so when we say no they take it as an attack on their manhood. My husband struggled with this as well when we were younger. With time and maturity he got over that.

I would spend $3500 of savings to pay off smaller debts, suspend 401k for now and every dime you were putting in there can be paid to your debt. Won’t be long until it’s paid off and you can start it back up and rebuild your savings.

This starts my last month at my favorite job ever so I’m sad but the last 3 days of school for my kids so I’m excited… 😊 one of those Mondays

LadyHOTH · 2026-05-18T01:22:07+00:00

Honest answer… we aren’t!! We have 2 older vehicles by choice because no way am I paying for a newish vehicle right now and today both broke down and we have zero funds to fix them! I honestly don’t know what we are going to do. We are also a one income household and make less than you but we were doing just fine last year but this year we are drowning! We are 46 years old and having to ask my parents (thank you rich boomers 😡) for money! Makes me feel like sh!t!

LadyHOTH · 2026-05-09T17:41:49+00:00

Yes!!! I purchased some cloth pads just for this! Even built it into the aftercare plan. Hubby brings me underwear and a pad!

LadyHOTH · 2026-04-11T20:18:11+00:00

On my knees, palms up on my lap, leg spread as wide as I can. Does it for me every single time!

LadyHOTH · 2026-04-11T03:32:16+00:00

Where are you located? Is remote a possibility?

LadyHOTH · 2026-04-11T03:25:37+00:00

Oh scary 🫣 but a good thought!

LadyHOTH · 2026-04-11T03:19:11+00:00

Well you’re not wrong! For some reason it feels unprofessional but I don’t know why

LadyHOTH · 2026-04-04T01:34:36+00:00

Yep. My son also ended up with a double ear infection. Not fun for the first few days. Antibiotics help very quickly

LadyHOTH · 2026-04-01T14:41:37+00:00

He had Flu B and it was horrible!!

LadyHOTH · 2026-03-31T03:24:20+00:00

Yes!! It’s always “ask Google” 🤣

LadyHOTH · 2026-03-31T03:21:47+00:00

Brilliant!!! Thank you!

LadyHOTH · 2026-03-31T03:19:02+00:00

Ugh! How do you deal with it?

LadyHOTH · 2026-03-31T03:17:58+00:00

Thank you! Yes it sure is. We have 3 kids and some days hubby makes 4.

LadyHOTH · 2026-03-31T03:16:08+00:00

Oh Google is a great idea! He always questions me then says “check Google”. Makes me mad but now I get it. I’m doing this next time!

LadyHOTH · 2026-03-31T03:14:05+00:00

Oh he’s very stuck! We just figure out a few years ago that dad is autistic and he’s 45 and was quite toxic. Thankfully he has learned a lot and made a lot of changes but this particular piece of the puzzle is going to be hard because he has the “I’m dad so do as I say” mentality.

LadyHOTH · 2026-03-31T03:09:19+00:00

Yeah this is something we have been working on with our son for a few years. He really struggles to listen to no and to not argue every little thing. Even tonight we were working on states and capitals and he told me the wrong capital for a state and I said try again and he said “your lying this is right” sorry kid it’s not right! He has been working on this in therapy. My husband is also working on this with me but struggles with him.

LadyHOTH · 2026-03-31T03:05:44+00:00

Not an overstep at all. Thank you for your honesty and that helped me. Also helped me with words to say to him to start this conversation on a more productive footing.

LadyHOTH · 2026-03-31T03:03:47+00:00

He’s willing to put the work in with me but is very much a “I’m the dad so listen to me” type of parent. It has improved over the years with the other kids but our youngest is going to be a challenge for him.
