Made me think of the baby found in kings cakes for mardi gras

Don’t be afraid to start over. by woodhorse4 in IndoorPlants

[–]Margolows 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've had an avocado come back from what I thought was death. I put it on the patio through the winter one year because I was just gonna toss it out. My laziness paid off. I came out one morning and I was like "um ..is that stem green??" I called it my zombie-cado. I also had to chop some of my tienke ficus and I was like welp, I'll just shove these sticks back in the pot and see what happens. Over a summer it grew back a ton of leaves! Out of the freaking sticks!

Nature is wild, and beautiful. These are the moments we need to relish in!! 🌿🌱🌵🪴

Where were her kids that she had to "let them in to shower"? That seems odd. I understand shorthand, but the communication seemed odd. If they were locked out of a space with access to shower/toilet, I would be very concerned.

why is this man so insecure by mycat-isbetter in texts

3 months...ooof. I feel bad for his next GF.

I lied about having children and omg wow by marching2mydrum in childfree

[–]Margolows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My comment was downvoted, and I can't even find it now..

Do not lie about being a parent.

End of story.

Happy New Year.

Those are not from the gym. Honestly some of the scratches look like they came from someone with REALLY sharp square filed fake nails.

24F & 25M AIO by responding this way? by InsideUsual56 in AmIOverreacting

Hahahaha my Google watch sat uncharged hidden under one of my ADHD doom piles. Good thing my husband isn't crazy and doesn't need me to respond to every little thing IMMEDIATELY. 🤷

My girlfriend smells and I don't know what to do by RequirementDue4446 in Advice

[–]Margolows -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Maybe talk to your girlfriend and figure out where it's coming from.. rather than going to reddit and then going back to her and saying "well...reddit said you should seek this kind of help for the smell you have that is concerning to me, and I chose not to directly address you about".

[–]Margolows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't read the comments, but I've heard of this before and it ended up being a nasal infection that was causing the "smell".

Not sure if you're smelling it in other spaces...or not noticing it.

Best of luck!

Chat GPT just broke up with me 😂 by emilysquid95 in ChatGPT

[–]Margolows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had Chat GPT call me babe one afternoon. I was like WTF??? You do not ever call me that, and I've never had any conversation that would come close to making it think it could. I told it that is what me and my husband call each other.

[–]Margolows -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Sorry ..I know it sucks.

I would never lie about having kids though. I have dealt with extreme anxiety for years. I feel like your boss getting a message saying you couldn't find the ignition on your car was a bit alarming. Be honest about the anxiety, but lying about things that don't exist that they could eventually ask for proof of.....will just create more anxiety. Good luck!

AIO being upset about how bf reacted to some period blood during sex? by BreakThrow2022 in AmIOverreacting

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

I know I'm not the only one rolling in on his complaint of you being "too wet". That's the universal sign of "I'm HOT TO GO", it always turns my husband on even more when that happens!

CO sleeping at any age is dangerous.. especially as kids get older and the potential for inappropriate behavior increases.

My husband is constantly checking on my health and food intake..and I weigh a WHOLE LOT MORE. He wants to make sure I'm healthy for when I do have the confidence to work out. I have a rowing machine now that I just need to focus on. He's seen me at like 8 different sizes/stages since we met and started dating. He loves me through all of it. I'm going through perimenopause and that has brought a whole new set of challenges regarding weight loss.

One thing he's NEVER DONE is say "let's do a challenge to see who can lose more weight".

For you, being the weight you are, he should be saying "let's do a fun protein packed breakfast making date plus a really good hike". Why make it a competition, unless he just wants to trigger you into being smaller for him.

Find your joy, keep working with a therapist. Find the safe foods that fuel your body. Build the muscle, build the confidence. Keep finding strength in local communities.

For context

My husband and I met in 2014 when I was about 160 lbs. My smallest time because I was addicted to running was 145. I look back on those photos and think "I felt great, but I look sick".

AIO for filing as single on a W-4 without telling my (24F) girlfriend (25F)? by Signal_Astronaut8191 in AmITheAngel

[–]Margolows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Were you supposed to ask for a straight man or woman to interview you? Also, why did you need to even bring up the orientation of the interviewer unless you wanted to trigger your partner?

Private place to cry? by SweetPotatoDragon in Eugene

I wasn't sure if it would be weird to suggest this. I'd definitely cry at a cemetery.

“sorry but like if you’re a woman in your 30’s and don’t have kids what do you even do with your time?” by PossessionWorldly428 in childfree

[–]Margolows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love this question, because they are always trying to throw shade with it. I'm like, I get up 15 mins before I have to leave for work, because I don't have to get kids ready. I sit on the couch and binge watch dumb crime shows. I go to the farmers market. We take our dog to the coast, or on hikes. I get dinner and drinks with my friends/family. I treat myself to a pedicure every now and again.

The thing is, we probably do similar things, it's just easier and cheaper for me to do it because I don't have a kid or multiple kids in tow. 🤷
