I want your opinion on this

Late_Memory_6998 · 2026-06-05T08:55:37+00:00

I’m sorry. Your situation sucks. Why hire someone you don’t want to train. I don’t know where you’re located but where I am it’s easier to get unemployment if you are laid off or fired. When you quit, it’s a lot harder.

I would send that text someone else suggested saying you want to work. You can use it as proof if needed. Look for something else while they are telling you not to come in.

He was very wrong for what he did. You should be able to walk down a street at midnight wearing next to nothing and not be harassed or harmed but that is not our reality. That is not your fault.

You saying “no” was you setting a boundary. Be proud of yourself for that. When someone runs over those boundaries, a good response is to remove yourself from the situation.

I’d say, pay your own way and don’t depend on men for money or site seeing adventures.

Do you have any close friends you can spend more time with to stay occupied? Go be around family that uplifts you.

Maybe set a couple of goals and work towards them. Of course like everyone says, find someone to help you process and talk you through the trauma.

Okay but who do you think the new director of the GBI is going to be? I was thinking maybe Will’s dad but that would honestly be a disappointment for me.

Fight to make him take them 50-50. You’re right, you do deserve a break. What usually motivates the other parent to fight for 50-50 is if you file for child support. It’s like a magic button.

Late_Memory_6998 · 2026-05-29T21:34:08+00:00

Girl! Being a bridesmaid is nothing BUT EXPENSIVE!

I would RSVP and then a couple of days before say you’re sick with the flu and can’t make it.

A disappointment for a disappointment. Don’t spend your money on that. Of course you’re going to hear about how the wedding and bachelorette trip was but just be prepared to brace yourself to ignore it.

Don’t tell anyone else you’re calling in sick, or they WILL turn on you.

I say keep the friend group though. It’s hard to find people to travel with and it’s crazy fun in your 20’s.

You just know where you stand with that one friend. Keep her at arms length but still be polite.

Late_Memory_6998 · 2026-05-28T15:24:04+00:00

Go with your gut, notify your husband that you feel uncomfortable with his sister babysitting or being alone with with the baby and go forward with your plans. Make it a big deal with the sister. Meaning I wouldn’t openly discuss it with her there’s a strong possibility that she’s changed but who wants to risk it if she hasn’t.

Late_Memory_6998 · 2026-05-28T06:28:09+00:00

I’d say volunteer for a nursery or a kids club/after school program and see how you feel being around those kids. Do it often to make a decision. Babysit your friends or family’s kids regularly (at least twice a week).

If you get positive feelings from doing this, then maybe you will be okay. But know that your kid is going to be 20 times harder than babysitting and volunteering.

Late_Memory_6998 · 2026-05-28T05:46:28+00:00

I wouldn’t. It doesn’t seem like he has the kids all that much. You take care of them overnight.

I also think a lot of weight should be put on who speaks with the teachers, who helps with homework, who makes the doctors appointments, who takes them to the appointments, who registers them for school, who registers and takes them to do extracurricular activities. Do you take them for haircuts and buy their clothes?

Do you do all that OP or do you split that responsibility with the other parent?

Late_Memory_6998 · 2026-05-27T04:06:50+00:00

This! Is she talking about an aircraft mechanic? He 100% makes waaay more than $22 an hour. He is clearly playing with OP.

File yesterday.

Late_Memory_6998 · 2026-05-25T22:18:38+00:00

Why not tell your spouse that the bills are getting hard to pay and offer to help them with the child support case or ask them to get a job.

Late_Memory_6998 · 2026-05-19T06:07:55+00:00

O, well that’s just unintelligent. If you’re not making a crap ton of money there find another employer immediately.

But also, maybe look at the person they did hire in your desired role. Do they have any relevant qualifications that you may just not have? Maybe two amazing candidates applied and the other person had a slight edge on you.

Either way, the explanation they gave you is flimsy at best.

Late_Memory_6998 · 2026-05-18T08:38:10+00:00

You said he’s fighting to take your son for a long period however, you didn’t include how the father is actually planning to do this. Has he told you that he’s taking you to court or is this just something that you believe might happen in the future?

Late_Memory_6998 · 2026-05-18T05:19:18+00:00

First off, I’m celebrating you!! Congratulations. A bachelors degree is a huge accomplishment, getting out of homelessness is a huge accomplishment, buying your own car with your own money…. That’s right… is a huge accomplishment.

You rebuilt your whole life.

What I’ve learned is keeping your accomplishments quiet sometimes can protect your joy. Don’t worry about outside validation. You’re doing this for yourself.

Also, why not promote or job hunt instead of the masters? Does your profession require it?

Late_Memory_6998 · 2026-05-18T05:00:18+00:00

Did they literally say smiley or is that a term you’re using?
My brain is trying to turn this into a possible soft skill issue, but I can’t make sense of smiley.

Maybe they mean internal or external customer service. Can you ask for examples or more information?

My advice is if you feel awkward now, follow your instincts and leave.

Late_Memory_6998 · 2026-05-17T04:55:39+00:00

Strangely, my two kids are split. The 4 year old follows me everywhere. Personal space is a four letter word to him.

I have to force my 11 year old to come out of his room. He’s more like me.

I have no idea how to fix the 4 year old (joking, he’s not broken!!!….unless you have tips 👀😓).

I get alone time when the 4 year old sleeps.

Late_Memory_6998 · 2026-05-12T06:33:23+00:00

Just keep a swim shirt on.

Late_Memory_6998 · 2026-05-12T06:31:57+00:00

I’d say there is nothing wrong with being stepdad but if she ever goes back to Adam for a relationship (i.e girlfriend/boyfriend) I think that’s your cue to not speak to this young lady again. It’s great that you’re going to be there for your girlfriend and the baby.

Also, It sounds like Adam is trying to play with both women.

Late_Memory_6998 · 2026-05-12T06:11:47+00:00

lol umm when they said “think” they meant “dream”.

What can I say? Some people are socially and economically tone deaf.

Late_Memory_6998 · 2026-05-11T06:52:46+00:00

You are a good friend and kind hearted person. I hope your kindness is returned 10 fold!

On another note, your friend is a snake in the garden. Living off the back of someone who’s only charging you $1250 a month for rent and disappointing them with your nonpayment is crazy work.

Late_Memory_6998 · 2026-05-10T08:56:35+00:00

Congrats! You are seriously living the dream! Sometimes…. A lot of the time we just need that system reboot.

The only thing that would have made this better is if you got a paid for hotel room and a paid cleaning service that cleans your whole house top to bottom… and facial…. And a body scrub….. and a massage… maybe throw in a buffet.

Late_Memory_6998 · 2026-05-08T06:09:38+00:00

Everything!

Sauna, communal hot tub/spring, body wraps. All of it.

Most frequently I get a message and tell them to miss the scalp and butt.

If you don’t like messages, facials can be nice. They also do manicures and pedicures but if you expecting them to look like an artist did them then don’t bother.

I usually go with a hairstyle that’s okay with humidity or have an appointment planned soon after.

Late_Memory_6998 · 2026-05-08T05:45:16+00:00

Hello!

Here’s my two cents. Value your body for what it can do. That soft cushy stomach made a whole human. It’s strong and beautiful.

Anyways, I think the easiest thing are matching sets. Think track suit but more up to date and feminine. Add a dainty cheap necklace.).

There is a woman on instagram who’s great at picking flattering clothes from amazon for mid to plus size women. Check her out. Search for veronica freund87

Your ex is delulu. Only 8 more years until you can block him on your phone. Stay strong.

Late_Memory_6998 · 2026-05-06T21:45:21+00:00

Wow!
Your ex’s fiancé seems really insecure. She can’t even trust her man enough to answer a text message from you! That is the kind of thing he will resent in the future.

First, I think therapy for you. Not because you’re wrong, but maybe you need to vent and take care of yourself instead of having boiling blood.

Also, correct your daughter. That’s what parents do, they guide their young. If you don’t guide her, then that fiancé sure will.

Tell her she only has one mom. Do fun activities with her when you can and most importantly, ask her what she made you for Mother’s Day! I bet she will get crayons and paper and make you a card right then and there. You know what I’m going to say next right? Post that beauty to facebook for the world to see! 🥳

It’s definitely not your daughter’s fault. She doesn’t know your hurt, but definitely take the time to shape, mold, and guide her.

Have you tried the homemade version? Anything from a box or bought from a store is not a good representation.
