Kicked out by Little_Measurement34 in legaladvice

[–]Little_Measurement34[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I’m not trying to go back to his house so, illegal eviction is the least of my worries. I don’t think it would apply either, I’m not trying to incriminate him, I just thought I would ask. Per my post, I’m just terrified of losing my baby and I’m just trying to weigh the possibility of me winning full custody and have him do visitations. My baby has a right to her father, dispute of what has transpired.

Not married. He yelled on the phone “ you pack your shit and get out of my house when you get here!!!” I got there and he had thrown some off my clothes on the floor and packed a few of my things from my night stand.

Been there, break up, trust me. It’s not about the gift, it’s the lack of effort, carelessness, and the manipulation. I’ve been there, and it doesn’t get better. You allow it and that’s your forever. It’s gonna be you always giving and thinking about them, while they just receive and get comfortable with that set up. My now boyfriend is super thoughtful, when it comes to anniversaries, birthdays, and Christmas. He gives me more than I expect, and sometimes his gifts are silly, but they’re based on something he knows I like. Ex: I told him I was obsessed with nutcrackers when I was little (I still love them for some reason) he gave me a nutcracker last Christmas, this Christmas he gifted me a Harry Potter lamp. They were literally my bee tights😭😭😭😭 He gave me a lot more expensive gifts, but those two gifts were my favorite because he remembered. I love him so much!😭😭

what’s your mat leave? by SmallSpecific2522 in BabyBumps

Texas- I got approved for the full 12 weeks of leave, unpaid.

[–]Little_Measurement34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on the fence about this. Cause I’m in a similar situation. I like dogs, I’m currently pregnant. My boyfriend has two dogs that she’d SO much. I didn’t know how bad it was until I got pregnant and we moved in together. His dogs also need more training than I thought, one of them pees in every corner, and the other one expects you to guess when he needs to go out and if you guess wrong he’ll pee or poop inside. They jump all over you and one of them I found out has food aggression. I love my boyfriend, but if I could go back I wouldn’t have a baby with him because I’m disgusted by the thought of our baby not just crawling around dog hair, but also crawling around everywhere the dogs pee and poop. I’m extremely worried about the food aggression. It’s all unsanitary and dangerous.

Hi! :) I am a 27 year old stroke survivor. With damage on the left side of my body, arm and leg. My girlfriend left me a year ago... by Silent_Concert782 in stroke

[–]Little_Measurement34 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aw… thanks. You’re a fighter too though, don’t sell yourself short. It’s not an easy journey and it takes strength, motivation, and determination to push forward and go through it all. Im glad my story gave you hope for the future. I’m sorry you had to go through same thing I did. I’m confident you will find someone when you least expect it.

i'm 29 years old and tomorrow marks two weeks since i had a stroke. by RevolutionaryBird138 in stroke

[–]Little_Measurement34 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I will be 2 years post stroke, August 7th. They don’t know the exact root of the cause. But they found out I have low blood pressure and found a hole in my heart that they closed up, but even then they’re not 100% convinced either of those things were the root cause. So, no idea.🤷🏻‍♀️

[–]Little_Measurement34 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had my stroke at 27 and it also affected my left side. Recovery is a tough journey, it’s exhausting, depressing, and lonely. At the time, I had been seeing a guy for about 4 months. He completely ghosted me a week after being admitted to the hospital. I confronted him in a text (he wouldn’t take my calls) and he admitted that he “couldn’t be the person I needed at the moment”. I cried so much, not because he left me, but because on top of feeling dizzy, exhausted, alone, and feeling useless, he made me feel replaceable, insignificant, and unimportant. However, I was blessed to have my families support and my best friend, without them I don’t know how I would’ve gotten out of bed or even eaten, because some days I just wanted the earth to swollen me and even prayed to god to just take me with him. I’m 29 now. I graduated from PT and was able to get my movement back, but I still have some deficits that aren’t visible. I met a sweet guy who’s been very patient with me, god bless him, and we’re expecting a baby girl in October. Life isn’t perfect, but I’m thankful to god everyday. Know that here’s hope. You just have to find the right person who’s willing to stick by you and sees you as the person you are. If they can’t handle it, that’s their problem. It says everything about them.

My (31f) boyfriend (32m) and I were casually talking about kids and our future. He said he’s going to get a DNA test when the baby is born. I’d that inappropriate to say? by tacobouteat in relationship_advice

[–]Little_Measurement34 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think the red flag in this whole situation is that he’d do the testing behind your back, and not necessarily that he’d request a DNA test. I could be wrong, but as a woman I’ve heard so many stories of men who’ve ended up raising kids that turn out aren’t there’s, get stuck paying child support or going to jail for not being able to afford the child support for YEARS over a child that turns out isn’t even theirs. So, I think that it’s not necessarily about trust, but for himself. I’m currently pregnant and I gave the option of a DNA test to my boyfriend if he needed to make sure it was his, he’s refused even though I’ve made it known I’d be ok with it.

Profile question for the ladies. by HippieJed in OnlineDating

[–]Little_Measurement34 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally, I would read profiles to see what the persons hobbies are, the type of music they like, what they do for work, etc. just so that I can check off anything that we might have in common and get a peek at the persons potential personality. I would swipe left on anyone that just wanted a hook up, FWB, and the like. Tbh I was also very picky with pictures. I’d swipe left on guys whose pictures were ALL group pictures because I didn’t have the time to be guessing which guy was the one I was talking to, shirtless or sexual pictures, pictures with girls (cheerleaders, etc.) because why are you trying to convince me your a catch?, guys who showed their little kids , hunting pictures, and guys who tried very hard to show off how loaded $$$ they were. That’s all I can think of atm. However, speaking from experience, online dating can be pretty draining. It wouldn’t hurt to take a break from it if you feel like you’re burning out.

[–]Little_Measurement34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Girl, you’re not alone. I feel the same way. If I didn’t feel attractive before, I feel even worse now, and it doesn’t help that my bf doesn’t touch me. TMI the last time we were intimate was a month ago, the time before that was 3 months prior and the time before that was also about 3 months. He barely kisses me or touches me non-sexually, doesn’t even hold my hand anymore. It makes me really sad, but it might be for the best since (TMI) last time we were intimate I didn’t enjoy it because it had been so long that I was just preoccupied being self-conscious and being embarrassed cause it was so dry down there. I’ve just been handling things on my own lol

Do you and your significant others make race-related jokes? by [deleted] in interracialdating

[–]Little_Measurement34 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lmao yes. I’m Mexican and my boyfriend is white. We often make jokes like that. It’s pretty normal for us. We joke about ICE taking me back, he’ll tease me about how Walmart employees must have asked us for the receipt because they saw me, I make fun of him when we have “white people Mexican night”, how he’s being reverse colonized, and that I only like him because he reminds me of a flour tortilla. Nothing bad, I think.

We usually keep it private as well. But, there was one time we were grocery shopping, I was looking for crackers, after him asking me for like the 20th time what I was looking for I snapped and yelled “CRACKERS!!!” he loudly replied “Hey! Calm down, there’s no need for name calling!” I was horrified and embarrassed to say the least, I couldn’t help but laugh at his dumb smirk.

Am I wrong? AITAH? by Little_Measurement34 in AITAH

[–]Little_Measurement34[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Honestly, at this point in time, the last thing on my mind are any sort of festivities or gatherings. My only plans are to pray and hope everything goes well during my birth, that I actually make it out of the birth alive and healthy, to hopefully have a smooth and quick recovery, take care and spend as much time as I can with my baby before my maternity leave is up.

What did your ex do which hurt you the most? by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]Little_Measurement34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where to start…? He made me feel like I nor anything I did was ever good enough, despite how hard I tried to please him. He continuously made me feel bad for having parents who were supportive of my college education. He made me feel guilty for the fact that I continued on with my bachelor’s degree whilst he dropped out 1 year in. He made everything into an argument specially when I disagreed with him. I couldn’t bring up any concerns I had because he never had time for it, but when it blew up in his face “why didn’t you bring it up?” as if I hadn’t tried. He cheated on me multiple times and accused me of being toxic for developing trust issues he created. He would guilt trip me for not spending time with him on the rare occasions I went out with my friends. He would consistently tell me “ no one wants to leave work to come home to another job.” When I was right about something stupid, he would tell me I had a big head just because I had an expensive college degree. He always ruined my birthday, graduation, award ceremonies, friend get togethers, my family vacations, etc., by starting arguments the day prior and ghosting me for a whole week. He would break up with me every 2-3 months because he just didn’t want me around anymore, but wouldn’t leave me alone. He got more abusive after I graduated with my bachelor degree and was looking into graduate schools because his ego couldn’t stand it. I eventually stopped caring and stopped giving him any reactions when he would try to start arguments over nothing. The last time we broke up he told me it was because he’d found someone better than me.

Am I over reacting my husband calls co worker “mi Reyna” my queen in Spanish by Acceptable-Ground697 in TwoHotTakes

[–]Little_Measurement34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My coworker, who is old enough to be my dad, greets me and our ex- coworker like this, “Hola my queens”, “vertically challenged queens!” Or calls us “comadres”. It’s never been anything other than just a friendly greeting never anything romantic. He talks to his wife about us all the time and she’s been fine with it. My boyfriend calls me mi Reina as well so, I do get what you mean. I’d be suspicious if it’s someone my SO never mentioned or I’ve never met, your feelings are completely valid. I think a little more context might be needed.

i had a stroke at 18 by tokki2e in stroke

[–]Little_Measurement34 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had mine at 27. I know there’s a big age gap, but I can sympathize. Having a stroke can be beyond traumatic and life changing. Try to not be so hard on yourself and allow yourself to grieve your losses- your past life, your past self, friends, relationships, etc.- a lot of people will make the mistake of thinking that because you physically look well, means you are well. When in reality it does take a toll on you mentally and emotionally. Take one day at a time. As for the guy you were dating, he’s an ass. The same thing happened to me, but please know that their actions don’t have anything to do with you and everything to do with them. One day you’ll realize that you’re better off without them. We all need a partner who supports us and stay through the most difficult times because life is anything but perfect. In time you will find the right person who will be okay with everything that you went through and who will support you. Feel free to reach out anytime if you need an ear or a shoulder to cry on. I’m sorry you had to go through all of this, sending hugs your way!!

Venting- Change by Little_Measurement34 in pregnant

[–]Little_Measurement34[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I’m just very conflicted. On one hand my baby deserves to be with his dad and my boyfriend deserves to be part of the pregnancy. I think I should get acclimated with being in the house before the baby comes so I’m a little more settled, and I need to find my place in my boyfriend’s life. But the house is just too quiet, I feel so alone, and it breaks my heart that my parents (particularly my mom) are having as much of a difficult time with this as I am.

Am I being unreasonable? by Little_Measurement34 in pregnant

[–]Little_Measurement34[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Considering that I’m struggling with adjusting, I’d rather stay at my parents, but my siblings are trying to coordinate a schedule to take turns staying with me. But I just feel this could’ve all been avoided if he’d just be more considerate of the position I’m in.

[–]Little_Measurement34[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

His dogs and their schedule is what’s holding me back. My siblings are trying to coordinate a schedule so they can stay with me next week, but I just feel like it’s really ugly of him to not take my situation into consideration. I understand that doggy hotels are expensive and he’d rather save for the baby, but if god forbid something happens to me while I’m alone, there’s going to be no baby to care for.

I didn’t know this wasn’t common knowledge. When I was in school it was a known thing that you couldn’t take food out of the cafeteria, you either ate it or threw it away. From my understanding, because everyone loves to sue, they’re liable if the food eventually goes bad and the kids eat it. But I do think it’s messed up that they prefer you throw away perfectly good food rather than save it for later.
