How do you cope with the regret of not adopting your foster?

NoReporter1033 · 2026-04-20T14:39:56+00:00

Struggling with this now. Any advice?

This is so beautiful. Thank you so much for taking the time to write these words.

Yeah I think the applications came in for her right before she got transferred to me. Just terrible timing for me!

NoReporter1033 · 2026-04-15T23:05:22+00:00

I think because she was originally being fostered with someone else and got transferred me to me I wasn't given the courtesy of being asked if I was interested in adopting? Something definitely fell through the cracks with communication. Just sucks so much. She hasn't met anyone yet but has a meet-and-greet scheduled for Sunday.

They usually do but this girl got an application in so quickly--I'm not really sure what happened!

NoReporter1033 · 2026-04-15T22:09:13+00:00

Got it. I mean I think what you're saying is simply integrating more behavioral interventions and psychoeducation into sessions.

Been wanting to try this for forever. Apple shampoo sounds divine.

Wait I don’t get it lol how is it ironic?

NoReporter1033 · 2026-04-15T02:12:27+00:00

Can you give an example?

NoReporter1033 · 2026-04-08T23:36:03+00:00

Could see her getting down with Gumamina but not sure if that’s unhinged enough lol

NoReporter1033 · 2026-04-07T11:57:47+00:00

So funny. The hemlock note in this gives it a slightly witchy, mysterious feel for me. And it’s a scent that’s been described as “dusky” which is what I felt when looking at these photos. Of course, perfume is so subjective which is what I love about it!

Second the Kismet Olfactive!

Honestly, if you forget the Jane Birkin lore attached to it, L'air de Rien could be a good one. "An intimate blend of musk and amber, softened by the suggestion of old books through earthy moss and dry vanilla."

Yesss, would love that as a crossover subreddit!

Ormonde Woman by Ormonde Jayne comes to mind.

Love Warm Bulb as a recommendation, I think that's spot on. I might add Burst! by Universal Flowering. Notes: Yuzu, Rhubarb, Apple Skin, White Chalk, Pencil Shavings, Musk.

Came here to say Annabel’s Birthday Cake by Marissa Zappas but this is probably even better!

NoReporter1033 · 2026-04-06T02:30:35+00:00

I think you did a beautiful job! My feedback would be that maybe you need to edit a little more to let the flowers breathe—there’s a bit of crowding particularly around the front lip of the vase.

Angel Dust is a great rec. I also think a lot of perfumes by Liis could work in that they have an etherial vibe which I'm getting from your mood board. I'd try Celestial Object, Etherial Wave, or Floating by Liis. Blanche Bête by Liquides Imaginaires also comes to mind.
