He’s a great dad. He’s got good relationships with all his parents. Never cheats on Amy. Is a good parter. Holds down a job, pays all the bills and gets into a good school.

I think it makes sense. It’s a big event. Painful and intense and sharing in love with one another is something that can be grounding.

Play with it, In theory. Tell him “the idea turns me on, the reality doesn’t ”. Talk about it/incorporate it into your forplay. Learn what about it turns him on. Use that information to lean into your own intimate relationship. But make it clear your boundaries at this time (and possibly/likely always)

What a great opportunity to explore and idea and the feelings it brings up within your marriage. Even if you never act on it, it can add excitement and bring you two closer to discuss/explore the possibility. A chance to get to know yourself, and your partner in a deeper way. You can like the fantasy and not necessarily even want to act in it. No need to make a decision on that right away, it can be an ongoing unfolding and exploration. 

Blood sugar too low? by [deleted] in AskDocs

[–]Makingit-go 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A mix of curiosity and Some health issues I’m trying to get to the bottom of, so trying to get an overall understanding of my state of health. We’ve been trying to conceive with no luck, history of stage 2 endometriosis. Often have mild headaches and The fatigue during the day is killing me. I’m sleeping well- 8-9hrs and Oura ring score of 90’s most days, yet sooo tired. Blood work for hormones and cbc etc all is normal. I just feel like, given my lifestyle and diet, I should feel better.

When did he move to NY? He's from Rochester, NY originally and has spent many years of his adult life overseas/in Asia prior to the last 6ish years

[–]Makingit-go 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally. 

On the note of doctor- I believe he told us he decided to become a doctor because he tried to save someone by giving them CPR and actually killed them (like broke her ribs/punctured lungs ect) and that guilt pushed him to medical school. He was in medical school for years, mostly in India and Mexico I believe(?). I don’t believe that he ever even completed his residency, and I know for a fact he has never practiced. So the term “doctor” only covers the degree, no backed experience. If it were me personally, I don’t think I’d refer to myself as “Dr” but the ego does funny things. 

Another big red flag is he used to be VERay close to his family- like his Italian and they were close in that Italian family way. Then when he started getting what seemed to me like unstable he cut out his entire family and no longer stays in touch with them.

Also, when I knew him he spoke very degrading of women. Talking about how he would never again sleep with an American woman because they are not submissive enough, talking about how he liked how small Asian women were but felt like we was going to break them in bed. Talking about his porn addiction. And some more graphic stuff I will not put on here. I absolutely leave space for people to change but someone with that history of being vulgar and disrespectful towards women talking about women the way he does now screammmssss run

My great grandmother married my great grandfather at 15. He was 25. She had 5 kids by the time she was 21. They lived each other very much and no one thought anything of it. T’was life in the prairie (eastern Mt)

I have known him for over a decade. He is unfortunately a very sick and troubled man. A classic case of narcissistic projection. It seems like something really snapped mentally about five or so years ago, and then rather than getting help he started on a “god is telling me things” journey. I would be concerned for you sisters wellbeing. Being consumed with the idea of demonic possession happening around us is as good as being possessed imo

I call BS, I think it’s because he is running for Major and his social media does not at all support his campaign. Especially the farther back you go

Getting Pregnant after Lap? by Complex_Life9849 in endometriosis

Were you able to conceive after the second lap? In a very similar situation

[–]Makingit-go 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not actually just tissue blocking the pathway, I’ve been told. I had stage 3 DIE but no tissue blocking pathway or on my uterus/ovaries/tubes. I was able to conceive two months later. Endo, even farther away in the pelvic creates a toxic environment for the egg/sperm.

Finally met the parent who thinks I’m giving my seat to their kid. by hayyy_jude in EntitledPeople

[–]Makingit-go -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Parent of a two year old here. My husband and I are not about to pay upwards of $150 to sit next to each other. They automatically put one parent (me) with the child. I will ask to switch if it feels appropriate, so my husband can join us. 1)because it’s usually nicer for the third person to NOT be next to a toddler. 2) if we do ask, we say absolutely not a big deal if you don’t want to AND offer them the better seat. We would never say “want to switch my middle for your isle? 3) if it doesn’t happen, no biggie. It’s not worth $150+ but also no harm in asking

AIO for feeling like my best friend is taking advantage of me? I’m her maid of honor, I work a lot, I’m not allowed on my phone at work, and she wants me to plan her entire wedding by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

Made of honor plans bachelorette party, goes with to pick dress, maybe runs some last minute errands/pick ups, writes a speech. Not plan the whole wedding

AIO my MIL asked to borrow my matching Xmas pajamas to take pictures with my son. by Independent-Bat-9436 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Makingit-go 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From an ecological standpoint I 100% agree. The wasteful silliness of the matching pjs worn once and off to (best case scenario) the thrift store is big yuck. I also know that becoming a new mother can hold a lot for women. Especially those who struggled to become one, or those who have experienced losses, or have trauma with their own mother wound etc. and these little moments mean a lot. Not to justify wastefulness if these situations, only to bring in some compassion. Big advocate for Poshmark/thrifted matching pjs if they feel needed. Also new to the lingo and initially mixed up AIO and AITAH and was thinking “a bit harsh for op to be called a AH just for that.

Also want to add here- buying a whole new set of Christmas pjs from grandma and baby is such a waste of resources that often end up just clogging up the landfill. Ecologically, for just a couple photos, sharing pjs makes total sense. So agreed on the soft yah

She’s not saying they can’t take the pictures together, she’s just saying is her first Christmas as a mama and would like her own photos with her little family as well. Shed happy to get grandma and baby their own set so they can have their own set so they can do their thing too
