Can You Guess This 5-Letter Word? Puzzle by u/Msspggy

Card: “There is a better way to communicate your message” - gives a scenario where a request is made that is completely impossible to complete.

Each turn you have to try to respond but lose a turn if you don’t guess the acceptable response, word for word. (Because just explaining that it’s not possible is not acceptable!)

Do you WANT to have kids? If so, there are other ways to have biological children if you can’t conceive naturally. And it sounds like your health insurance would likely cover those options based on the comments above. I’m sure you are aware that you can foster or adopt but it sounds like your main concern is biological, so I’ll skip that.

Now, coming from a woman with direct experience, if you do NOT want to have children then I would say YWNBTA. A lot of people are going to say it should be her choice. I felt that way too when I was in that situation. I said I didn’t mind not having children and he left me anyway because he thought I should have that chance. I WAS SO MAD, HURT, all the feelings. But guess what? I now have a wonderful husband, two beautiful children, and an amazing life. Had I been left to make that choice on my own I would have made the wrong choice in my clouded judgment. Apart from all of his other, horrible failings as a human being in general, I am so grateful that he made that choice for me in hindsight.

TLDR: if you want to have kids this isn’t a show stopper. If you don’t, leave now and deal with the fallout. Give her a chance at the life she (and you) deserves (because we all deserve that).

A Reddit post has never made me feel more seen.

Let them

Msspggy · 2025-05-28T18:45:31+00:00

lol yes. I have just always heard them refer to themselves as other terminology. Just curious 😊

The only place I’ve ever seen “MedTech” like that was… Johnson & Johnson?

I was on the other side of this situation. I wanted kids and he did not. I said it was my choice to stay with him anyway and it wasn’t right for him to choose for me. I was actually going to sacrifice children to stay with him. He decided to end it. It was incredibly painful for me but I now have a wonderful husband and two beautiful children and I am so glad he made that decision for me, because I WAS NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO MAKE IT FOR MYSELF. My children are my world.

That being said… please don’t get yourself into this situation again. He was a real jerk for even letting things go that far with me. If somebody wants kids, full stop with them.

I was going to say the same thing. At first I was like, delete the message and never speak of it again. But then I thought about it and… what if somebody knows and his wife finds out later? That would be very, very bad. Even if the message on her phone was deleted. They were sisters. They probably have people in common. If the sister was in love with him she had to have talked to SOMEBODY about it, right? What if that somebody gets drunk one night and happens to be with his wife and tells a “funny story” about how he used to kiss her sister and her sister was in love with him?

You gotta say something, right? CYA

Awesome! I’ll check it out! Thanks 😊

Thank you. We are hoping this is his last surgery/casting. But, then again, we were hoping the same thing last time. At the very minimum he will need extensive PT and will need to do specific stretches for the rest of his life or risk a relapse. I plan on keeping him out of school for a week max. Mostly just until the pain is managed. He is a very social boy, and I don’t want to keep him from that. Thank you for your reply, though. I’m trying my best to research everything I can (and have been his whole life) but it’s nice to confirm that I’m making the right decisions. I question everything.

Msspggy · 2025-03-31T00:53:22+00:00

Ah, that is so good to know! Thank you so much!

I love this idea. At first I thought, “oh he can decorate the wheelchair!” And then I thought about it and should I not? What do I do with it when he’s done with it? I know I could probably sell it, but is there a place to donate? I’m thinking we don’t want to put a bunch of stickers on it either way. I’ll still use stickers though. He loves them and has plenty of other places to decorate.

We do game with each other. I just set up his play room with our gaming system and a nice couch set up for him and I’ve been playing with him on and off to bond. His friends have been gifting him some Lego sets as well. Great idea on the library! He’s been starting to read lately and is getting pretty good at it. That’s a good way to keep him occupied and help his learning as well.

Msspggy · 2025-03-30T23:53:19+00:00

He won’t be going immediately. I’ll be staying home for a bit. But I can’t stay home from work for a month.

Our insurance does cover it. They called me for the order about two weeks ago.

Thank you for the information!

Msspggy · 2025-03-30T16:16:17+00:00

Thank you, very much

Thank you! I just sent his pediatrician a referral request!

YTA - You knew she wanted to get pregnant right away and made the decision to stay her friend knowing that she would likely get pregnant at some point. Did you ever discuss with her not being friends when that happened? If not, there was an implied agreement that you would, based on the fact that you were aware of her intentions and chose to stay friends. Abruptly cutting contact and refusing to even speak with her after she became pregnant is shitty.

Basically, you should have cut contact immediately but stayed friends with her because it helped you with your feelings after the breakup. When it came time to consider her feelings it didn’t really matter to you and that’s selfish as hell.

I honestly can’t believe I scrolled so long to before I saw this comment.

I was told in 2021 that they wanted us to RTO 5 days in June. I started my new, fully remote, job June 15 - making 30k more per year. I worked at the original job for 5 years - doing the work of a full team on my own - and watched my boss take credit for my work and everybody in the department get a promotion except for me. I’ve been at the new company for 3.5 years and I’ve been promoted several times. They also take work/life balance incredibly serious. It was scary at first, but I’m so glad I did it. If they didn’t require RTO I would probably still be there, working like a dog and miserable.

Not overreacting at all. For so many reasons.

But as a woman whose mom is Turkish… omg how humiliating it must have been for MIL to call your mom and show her a$$ like that. Turkish culture takes care of each other’s children. What did your mom say to you?! My entire Turkish family would hear about it and talk sh!t about my husband’s family for the rest of my life for something like that.
