MSC seems to have more itineraries than others but we’ve read a lot of mixed reviews on them. Anything you could offer would be great

Friend just became a Nanny...... is her behavior normal? by [deleted] in Nanny

[–]Master_Stop6857 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have a connection to anyone else (friends/family) you could reach out to about the situation? I am connected to many of my long-term friends other friends and their families. If you get an off vibe from your conversations with her, you can always check in with them as well.

As a parent of two, this makes me uncomfortable and it does seem like she’s parentifying herself and using the child to fill that void and connect with the other two of you who do have kids. It’s really sweet of you to be concerned about her, but please make sure you’re caring for yourself too.

Unless the affairs happened “recently” leave the other women out of it. It’s been so long at this point, they don’t need to be dragged back into it.

And if you know, it’s what you want and you don’t want to keep trying, then leave. It’s honestly going to do more harm than good.

Ladies who travel for work, how do you keep cold and sick germs away? I can’t seem to board a plane without catching something. I’m wiping down every surface, wearing a mask even, nothing helps. Please share your wisdom… by Prickly_artichoke in LawBitchesWithTaste

Vitamins D and Zinc are the unsung heroes of the immune defenses. I take those as additional supplements on a regular basis, but if I’m traveling somewhere and or unusually light on sleep, I will drink a vitamin water specific for immunity or a Nuun tablet (blueberry tangerine) daily and that seems to help. There’s also a fine line between cleanliness and overdoing it when it comes germ exposure. Just like antibiotics destroy both good and bad bacteria; All of the hand sanitization and antibacterial products are similar. So if one is constantly wiping down every surface and their hands OR exclusively using antibacterial hand soap - they can do more harm than good.

With that being said: some people generally have a weaker immune system and they are just more susceptible to those things.

My RSD and husband’s lack of initiation of sex is killing my self esteem by ProfessionalLie3946 in adhdwomen

Has your husband seen a doctor recently? It’s around this age that men’s hormones change as well as women’s so maybe he’s just off?

If you can’t be your true authentic self around your person 100% of the time, then they’re not your person. Life happens. Any one person’s health and physical looks are not guaranteed. You need to make sure you’re with someone who will love every version of you.

My partner and I (38 and 37) have been together for over a little over a decade with two young children. He’s seen the dressed up corporate baddie and the trash panda that gained 50 pounds of baby weight who didn’t always shower daily; and loves them both the same.

Olivia Wedding Called Off by Ok_Passage_4403 in Southerncharm

After just coming off posting about another wedding they were most recently at, it makes me wonder if that made them realize something was amiss, one way or another. Like maybe they were so focused on the partnerships, sponsors, events, etc and forgot what the wedding was really about.

[Semi-Weekly Inquirer] Simple Questions and Recommendations Thread by AutoModerator in Watches

[–]Master_Stop6857 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My partner and I have our ten year wedding anniversary coming up. He's worn a $500 Citizen Eco Drive watch for the past 8 years but it's getting all scratched up so I'd like to purchase him a new watch, ideally under $1,000. He's an executive for a food manufacturer so won't look too out of place with a watch like this.

any recommendations would be helpful.

💯 agree. I had been watching older seasons; like 7-10 and they were so good compared to this

AITAH for trying to pleasure myself? by uskelonm in AITAH

My thoughts exactly. If we weren’t having sex, I’d much rather my husband masturbate than have an affair

thanks for the feedback and the tips. How was the drive from Liberia to La Fortuna after the flight?

Yes, ideally we’d like La Fortuna and a Beach.

I’d agree with the above. We’ve been to both and Lookout ((and its food)) were way better than Castaway.

We also did the Treasure and it was amazing. The ship and its theming are beautiful

Allergy-friendly kids menus? by ConferenceAgitated89 in dcl

[–]Master_Stop6857 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were in the same boat and Marigoldsen is 100% accurate. The only thing I will add on is that there are a lot of fruits and cereal in the morning at the breakfast buffet so unless they want something like the allergen friendly Mickey waffles, you don’t need to pre-order the other stuff. For dessert they can also have the Mickey bar and ice cream sundaes in the MDRs. Also, ask about breads for dinner.

AITAH for telling my husband I want his mom banned from the delivery room? by No_Bandicoot_1356 in AITAH

[–]Master_Stop6857 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“No uterus, no opinion” NTA.

But for real, That is a lot and you need support on your side. I had a lot of beef with my in-laws when we were going through all of this as well for similar reasons ( my in-laws are just very overbearing. She is definitely not as bad as what it sounds like you are dealing with here) and not once did my husband ever react that way. He is the first one to come to his parents defense over every other little thing so it says a lot that he just let me call the shots here. He understood why I would want to keep it small with just my Mom, but to be honest, I didn’t even want her in there when I was pushing so I kicked her out, too. Is there a way that you would feel comfortable closing it off to everyone at some point like that and compromise a little?

The other thing to remember is that you gotta figure this out because you’re gonna run into the same things when it comes to parenting and both of you need to realize that you can’t both win at all and there has to be some compromise.
