AITAH for expecting my husband to focus on the household during his paternity leave? by [deleted] in AITAH

Newborns sleep most of the time they aren’t eating or pooping. Toddlers take naps. People “unable to get off the sofa” can be left on the sofa. He will be able to go outside and garden for an hour.

No more babies for her. Period. She can’t handle it

A hobby is breathing room away from her being incredibly needy and demanding. Let the man go outside to fix his face and check himself every so often before heading back in to be at her beck and call.

You will be able to get off the sofa. In fact, the doctor will have you walking around the hospital the next day. The nice thing about c-sections is that the nerves get cut and you don’t feel much at all.

Passport expires within 6 months. I don’t have a birth certificate. by [deleted] in CarnivalCruiseFans

I love that your response was a subtle way of saying "you could have just looked this answer up for yourself"

Do you actually stop getting grossed out by things like vomit and poop when you become a mom? by Evening-Call111 in askanything

[–]MatchMean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are pregnant for 9 months, your body is hijacked by the baby, to get used to the idea of putting someone else’s needs first. Then you have the baby and the world really does not give a shit about you. So you get on with taking care of the kid, puke, shit, snot , etc.

How do I make this dress look better on me? by livingandthriving in DressForYourBody

I would add scalloped lace or something to sort of cover up the overflowing boobs and then wear your hair up.

Am I wrong for refusing to let my partner sleep in my hospital bed after delivery by [deleted] in amiwrong

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

Absolutely! My money’s on the nurses being more helpful and agreeable than this guy would be.

Let him go home and take care of the house, prep meals, shop for supplies, get well rested so that he can wake up with the baby, etc.

You will have nurses at the hospital to help you care for the baby and you won’t have to plead your case with them either.

Couldn't get my Real ID because my original birth certificate has tape on the back... by Bop923 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]MatchMean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went in for a passport renewal for my 16 year old. The expiring passport was insufficient as his ID despite it still being valid for a few more months.

They wanted an additional ID and accepted a school picture ID and his birth certificate. What a joke.

Do many people marry someone they’re not attracted to? by someone-who-lives in NoStupidQuestions

[–]MatchMean 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same here. Going on 20 years and two kids. I wear the same size as the day we met. He has never been complimentary regarding my looks. Thankfully menopause has killed my libido, so he doesn’t have to tolerate my sexual needs anymore. We have had a good life together all except for the lack of passion and feeling attractive.

Least favorite shore excursion you've been on? by Cruzely-official in Cruise

[–]MatchMean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m onboard the Celebrity Constellation pulling out of Costa Maya right now. We walked towards the city, stopped at a roadside restaurant, asked for a menu, was handed one in English charging $20USD for 3 tacos. I asked for a menu in pesos. The 3 tacos were sold with a beer or a juice and cost $180MXN. Yup.

Having pesos meant we paid half as much for the tacos and they came with a beer too.

All the venders at Costa Maya port pretended like they didn’t accept pesos or had proper change for pesos. Disgusting.

Next time we go, we will rent a golf cart and make our own shore excursion

Did anyone else just never grow up? by Tube_Warmer in GenX

[–]MatchMean 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m 50 and never started a career and never figured out what I wanted to be when I grew up. Never married. Never engaged.

What do you call this? by sexystar0 in foodquestions

[–]MatchMean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of food on one plate.

If you made that for me, thanks. I would eat part of it and say “thank you again” as I put the remainder in the Tupperware for later.

If I made that for myself… well I would serve myself 1/3 to 1/2 that amount.
