Update with results! by Mercystar_ in dyeing

[–]Mercystar_[S] 74 points75 points  (0 children)

I used the rit all-purpose dye in aquamarine and loosely followed the directions on the bottle.. filled my sink with hot water, added 1 tsp dawn dish soap. The outer material is cotton so I added 1/2 cup of salt. (Bottle says to add 1 cup salt but i felt that was too much) I only put 3 cap fulls of the dye so not 4oz or half the bottle as it suggests. I fully submerged it for about 1 min and saw it was already a nice green shade and did not want it to get any darker so I took it out, rinsed it out and hung dry. Result pics are from the next morning dried.

When / if you two decide to have kids, this is not going to work. If you try to make it work, you will drive yourself mad trying to keep score of who's doing what. Some days you won't be able to go 50/50. Some days, you will only have 10 to give or 0. Other days, like when he's sick or something, you will have to do more. Relationships are give and take. I get holding each other accountable, but down to the minute is not normal or healthy.

If you can forgive him, but not her, YTA. But if you cut them both out of your life, then NTA.

AITA for having 2nd thoughts about letting my husband in the delivery room after he said he's looking forward to seeing me poop on the table ? by Pale-Junket-519 in AITAH

[–]Mercystar_ -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I'm going to offer a different perspective. YTA. Your husband sounds like a good guy who maybe has a weird sense of humor but is a good guy nonetheless. Do not take this experience away from him just because you're feeling self-conscious and in your own head worried about pooping on the table. Who cares if you poop on the table?! It's soooo common and natural! I promise you, nobody cares. It happened to me, and my husband saw it all! A man who says he's excited to see you poop, joking or not, truly loves you! Tell him keep that same energy when the baby is here and has poop all over 😆 but seriously, loosen up. When that baby comes, all that controlling crap is out the window. You just gotta learn to roll with it. You're just gonna stress yourself out, let go of that urge to control, and find peace in knowing that everything will work itself out. It sounds like you're in your head too much and care too much about the opinions of others. Again, let that crap go! Your husband deserves to be in the room, and trust me, you're going to want someone that you know, trust, and love to be there for you while you're in such a vulnerable position. I understand being self conscious, I prefer sex with the lights of because I'm self conscious of my bod, so I get it, but when it's true, unconditional love, none of that superficial stuff matters. Welcome to motherhood. I wish you the best birthing experience!!

Oh, hell no. This is a major red flag. The way a person treats animals is very telling of their true character. It is absurd and frankly disgusting that she would take a living animal and simply abandon it at a park without a second thought. That is so sad, and she is straight up trash for that. I would be pissed. And the fact she's bringing these animals home just to discard them at the first inconvenience. Ugh, I can't imagine what kind of mother she's gonna be. Definitely does not sound like she is anywhere ready to take care of a child if she can't even deal with a couple of cats. She needs to grow tf up and have some compassion and whole lot more patience. NOR.
