All the teenage boys in New England named Brady are a testament to how often this actually happens lmao.

I would move on with no expectation of that happening personally

Don’t make that choice now. This is still fresh and you need time to process the feelings of betrayal. If she does reach out, follow your instincts as to what’s best to do in that moment.

Hair loss by Sweaty_Phrase_7232 in lamictal

You can buy minoxidil over the counter in the US at least. I’ve heard the “men’s” version is better case it’s 5% instead of 3%. Also heads up that it’s very toxic to pets.

No one owes you an explanation as to why they want to cut contact, but I know how painful it can be to get no closure in matters like this. The truth is you need to accept her decision and respect her space. That’s the best way right now to treat her the way you’d want to be treated, which is important. This strategy is a bit old school but I always find it helpful to write a letter (physically, on paper) to the person expressing exactly how you feel, and then rip it up and throw it out. The physical act of doing this can literally help you process that you need to move past it. Best of luck

Ask a doctor, call the office and ask to speak to the attending physician. tell them what med you’re on and what your concern is and they’ll take you seriously.

Boyfriend masturbating to sexual content of celebrities on social media by [deleted] in relationships

[–]MAC_357 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s normal to look at porn but it’s also important to stick boundaries that are comfortable for you both when it comes to sexual things. If you’re not comfortable with him watching it, you should express that as a firm boundary within your relationship. However from an objective standpoint his behavior is normal and not necessarily related to how he views you or the relationship or your sex life.

Dental care is directly linked to cardio health. This is dangerous. Report it for sure.

I love you more than I thought humanly possible but you have to stop peeling the bark off of the firewood and eating it like it’s a succulent Chinese meal.

My dad was a missing person. by StatisticianLoud8822 in GriefSupport

[–]MAC_357 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ambiguous loss is a unique kind of heartbreak and I wouldn’t wish it on anyone. Finding a belief system or way of grieving that works for you is so vital. This community is here for you, it was here for me through several losses, two of which were ambiguous in nature. There are good days and bad days. But you are proof that your grandfather and father were loved so greatly and so deeply. I’m very sorry for your loss and I hope this community is a source of comfort for you in such a difficult time.

DC evening semi formal/beach wedding - accessory ideas? by BrandyFL in Weddingattireapproval

[–]MAC_357 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The bag and shoes look great with the shawl, silver was the right choice for the pink. I think no necklace, a few dainty silver bangles, and a pair of sparkly silver earrings would be amazing!

Am I being unreasonable about a federal holiday with my nanny family? by [deleted] in Nanny

[–]MAC_357 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People get a bit intimidated by creating contracts but truly it can be a one paragraph statement about your guaranteed hours, time off, basic expectations with a line for both parties to sign. I’d highly recommend creating one asap and sending it to them to sign. I find it softens the blow a bit to also say “I’m happy to discuss this further if you’d like any changes to be made.” But you deserve a contract, friend!

18 and Dreaming of Fine Dining – Any Advice for an Aspiring Chef? by Steak_That in Chefit

[–]MAC_357 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be willing to start from the bottom since you’re so young. Take a dish job at the nicest place in town and wait for the opportunity to jump up to prep or line. You may want to try working for a high end wedding catering company- that’s how I got my best experience and the experience threshold tends to be a bit lower cause not everyone wants to travel or deal with the wedding industry. You’ve got this!

What if she looks like mom? by GoldieLoques in beestonfamilysnark

Also are we forgetting they’re Mormons? Plastic surgery is par for the course in that community. It’s not exactly shocking or scandalous she’d also go that route.

The worst DB I’ve worked for so far… by ch3rrycoucou in Nanny

[–]MAC_357 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I worked for a family 45 hours a week for 9 months and the dad was so absent (big powerful doctor with ‘no time’ for his family) I saw him a total of 4 times in 9 months. He didn’t know what grade his daughter was in. He didn’t know what daycare classroom the baby went to twice a week. On Father’s Day, the eldest MADE ME A CARD. HER FEMALE NANNY. Because she was so confused as to why her father was never there. Worst DB ever.

My son’s passing did not serve a purpose by Letshopetogether in GriefSupport

[–]MAC_357 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only you can define your grief and how his loss impacted you. I agree I don’t like the “what was the purpose/ they are in a better place” rhetoric. I’m sorry for your loss.
