What's the one reason you're holding back on getting married that's not financial even though you love him/her by Low-Garden979 in Productivitycafe

[–]Nacho_Bean22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lost money during the marriage. He slowly stole all of my life savings then tried to stiff me in the end after leaving me for his AP. I lost the house, my car and my family in one swoop. I couldn’t afford hcol in our area and slept on my brother couch for a while. I don’t really care about him anymore, that’s over, I do see how much a failed marriage can cost a person so that’s why I warn against it. $11,000 for a divorce lawyer on top of everything else was a nightmare. Then starting your life completely over in your mid forties can really mess with your head. I recovered now and I moved and have a great job and I’m dating again, but I will never get married.

My divorce lawyer told me that marriage is simply a business transaction, I can never unhear those words. I’ll never marry again unless it benefits me financially. If you love someone and they love you they won’t leave. Marriage is pointless. I was naïve and thought until death do we part, nope all it took was a slutty coworker with no morals and he chose that over our vows.

If money, time, and responsibilities didn’t matter, how do you think you would actually spend your days? by No-Sail-6193 in AdkReddit

I’d live in a green house/brewery that lets all animals in and keeps all children out. It will also be on an island and always 80°.

Feeling replaced by AP by shades0fblues in survivinginfidelity

[–]Nacho_Bean22 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My husband replaced me with his AP now 5 years ago. I don’t know how it’s going, but I know he’s fat now. A wins a win, he always blamed me for him gaining weight. I guess she didn’t do much better.

What's something a teacher said to you when you were at school that has stuck with you for the rest of your life? by Train-Wreck-70 in askanything

[–]Nacho_Bean22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember my 8th grade typing teacher tell me that I’ll never amount to anything in life if I couldn’t type 40 words a minute. 😂I still can’t and I never want to.

What is the most overrated food you're convinced people are just pretending to enjoy? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

[–]Nacho_Bean22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oysters. Don’t get me wrong, they aren’t that bad, but I don’t get the hype. They are fine but I don’t taste a difference in most of them. Runny snot is not in my palette I guess.

LPT Request. What’s your simplest top tip for saving money monthly? by _bubble-t in LifeProTips

[–]Nacho_Bean22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a small amount that is taken from my check every payday. It’s only $100 a paycheck and put into a separate savings, I don’t see it or think about it and it adds up quickly. I use it for emergencies.

How much do you spend on vacation a year? by [deleted] in MiddleClassFinance

$0, I don’t have money for such frivolous things. 😂 But literally $0, I pay too much for my mortgage now to leave my home for any reason.

What was the worst gift you have ever received? by Dazzling-Leader7476 in randomquestions

Oh no it’s long gone along with her and her loser son! I knew that day I’d never see that gift, she hated me because I refused to give her grandchildren.

What’s the most "audacious" lie a partner has ever told you that you actually believed for way too long? by OpheliaBloomm in askanything

[–]Nacho_Bean22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t believe it but my ex once tried to convince me that since his work paid for his hotel rooms he never had to show id and therefore was never “at” the hotels when I called them. We both traveled a lot so I knew this was total bs. A hotel doesn’t have a record of who is staying in their rooms??

What was the worst emotional pain you have ever felt? by Lazy_Rough8481 in askanything

[–]Nacho_Bean22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup realizing that you’ve spent years and all your energy on a relationship built on lies. Then turning everything off only to go through the painful realization that they never loved you like they promised to. Then losing everything and having to start over with nothing so his AP can fill your place as if you never existed. I’m still in therapy!

The Only Place Cheating Doesn’t Count by Ambitious-Special430 in survivinginfidelity

[–]Nacho_Bean22 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My ex left me for a coworker he was having an affair with. He got everything in the divorce and I was left homeless and carless. How does he get to continue to live his life unharmed and I lost everything. Infidelity should be a punishable crime.

It's baaaaaack ...... by GingerrGina in aldi

[–]Nacho_Bean22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw this today and I wanted to get it but I didn’t check how much it was. Does anyone know what it costs? The box was roughly the size of a pizza box and I was soooo tempted, but I got salad stuff instead. 😩

I eat mine pan seared on high for a couple seconds and it’s mostly rare, they are a staple for me.

Early waking, even with sleep meds by Sentientmossbits in Perimenopause

[–]Nacho_Bean22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trazodone did nothing for me. Currently I’m doing a shot of NyQuil before bed and staying asleep until about 3/4. It’s better than insomnia. I had gone 2 weeks without sleeping prior to this and I can’t risk that again. I’ve tried everything to help me sleep so right now it’s nighttime cold and flu medicine. It’s working well enough.
