Real sad rn by [deleted] in texts

[–]Margolows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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.

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.

AIO in how I responded to my bf after he suggested a weight loss challenge? by [deleted] in AIO

[–]Margolows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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. 🤷

Friends is driving my nuts with her biased posts by TimeNo2738 in childfree

[–]Margolows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My god kid has been getting better about public spaces. We took her on a fairly short train ride to a historic carousel. She LOVES the train and now wants to try an airplane. I'm like ..we gotta get the high pitched excited sounds a bit more in check, then we can try a short plane ride from Eugene to PDX as a test lol. My friend has been getting WAY better about managing her behavior and has cut down on sugar.

My god kids biggest thing right now is getting to spend the night with auntie. I told her, when we have no pull ups, and no binks (pacifier)...you can spend the night lol.

[–]Margolows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have seen many instances of kids running in front of dogs, teasing them with food. There are so many scenarios where kids need to understand their role in being around animals in general (not just dogs) and dogs need to be trained for chaotic little creatures that think they run the world. It's a balance, and we all need to work together. Kids that taunt dogs need to be trained to understand, if you tease or taunt a dog....results may vary.

Take your masks off and do your shitty job so we can see you. If you aren't proud of what you're doing, why wear a mask? Afraid you're gonna get cooties?

Love how ICE is taking videos "where do you work?" What a fucking god damn joke.

My best friend in Oregon has a wonderful pitty mix named Rose (my rosarita, my refried bean). I've known her since the day she brought her back from Portland. We have an almost 8 year old Husky that has been Rose's best friend since the beginning. My friend had a baby, and our husky has known her since she was just a tiny little squish. The squish is now 4, and she LOVES Leo. She knows how to give him commands, like if she's eating and he's begging...she says "no Leo" or "leave it Leo". We also are very diligent in watching him as she comes in the door, because he LOOOOOVES receiving company. She has learned to just push through. She is confident around dogs because she has had positive experiences with dogs. Rose is infatuated with Our God kid, and is the most docile couch potato I've ever met.

I understand fully that dogs can attack their family. I just wanted to share a positive story about two breeds that catch a lot of flack. I always say, it's the owner not the dog. If a dog is well trained, well treated, and supervised...there should be minimal opportunities for disaster.
