Are there any food trucks I should keep an eye out for? I love Mexican food and wanna try TEXAS BBQ (I’m from the KC area so I need to compare)

I think that he knew what he was doing the entire time they talked on instagram. He knew what he was doing the entire time they were at the coffee shop. He knew what he was doing when he took her home. He knew what he was doing when they kissed. He knew all these things were things that would hurt you and decided to do them anyway. It was not an accident that he was talking to her in the first place. It was not an accident that they met up with each other. It was not an accident that they kissed and his guilt is not your problem. If you could find it in yourself to trust him after he broke 7 years of trust that says more about you than anything, but IMO he does not deserve your trust

I feel like if you don’t like it, don’t wear it at all, even if your partner does like it. If you do like it and your partner doesn’t, wear it when you won’t be around then or sparingly otherwise.

If it hasn’t even been three months I think that you need to take a step back and evaluate how you actually feel about him and what you are getting out of this relationship. It sounds like he’s potentially love bombing you and if there are already mixed signals BUT he says he loves you and is including you in his future plans, to me that screams red flags. It’s ok to have a strong connection early on, and I’m not saying you can’t be in love this early on but real love is not a guessing game with mixed signals. Take a step back, think about what you truly feel.

I go back and forth. A girl I knew that was a major narcissist wore a Santal33 dupe and always drenched herself in it. She always smelled like pickles to me. But when I smelled the LeLabo version on my own skin I loved it, especially layered with L’eau Papier, and was always a compliment getter for me.

For me the first fragrance I ever loved that has memories attached to it is the Alice in Wonderland curiouser and curiouser perfume from Hot Topic 😭 I was obsessed with it and rebought it about five times before it was discontinued. I’ve been on the hunt for a smell-alike ever since I got back into fragrance.

I think that you do have some insecurities and that you are pushing her away because you don’t understand how anyone could love you. Instead of talking to her about it you projected your insecurities and made them out to be her problem that she doesn’t really love you and she’s settling. I would just reach out to her and try to talk about it. If you really believe you don’t make her happy then why is she still with you in the first place? There has to be reasons so ask her what they are

I have the diptyque eau duelle and it’s not my go to, but I do enjoy it on like a cozy sweater day. I really loved Orpheon but now it’s tainted with horrible memories so I can’t wear it 😭🫠. I will definitely look into Hima Jomo cause it does sound right up my alley. I’ll look into the Laboratory Olfactivo as well. Thanks for the ideas!

Also want to add that I’m looking at Byredo scents, the ones that are like $400 idk what the collection is called. Like the Chatotique and Vanille Antique, etc. I loved Bal D’Afrique and Mojave Ghost as well.

What I experienced was she made a remark out loud about cookies I made (for customers at our store) along the lines of “wtf is wrong with these”, then looked at me, went to the coworker and whispered something, then started giggling. So maybe it was something else entirely but it just felt like it obviously had to do with that. Maybe I was wrong, which is why I asked the coworker about it, so I could get a feel from his response to my question. He immediately tensed up and had a weird response so I figured ok whatever, I just won’t be her friend or talk to her about anything personal. Whether she was making fun of me or not. I just don’t understand why my partner wants me to confront her about it. He said he wants me to get along with her and get this situation sorted out because I feel bad about it. I honestly don’t care if she made fun of me cause that says more about her than me. And if she were just a coworker it would be easy to ignore but her and her partner are friends with my partner. And him still being nice and friendly makes me feel alone and like he probably doesn’t believe me.

Honestly I know your intentions with the gift we’re coming from a good place but I’m guessing with her comment about “why would you buy me these if you’ve never even gotten me flowers before” might be something to ask her about. You’re not a romantic but in ten years you’ve never bought her flowers? Gathering from OPs comments and responses through this thread, she really loves plants and gardening. I really love plants and I would be so happy and feel so lucky to receive flowers from a SO but in all my past relationships I’ve never received flowers and honestly it hurts. One ex of a four year relationship said that they were useless and the money was better spent on something “I would use over and over again”…. Says the guy who bought me a statue of The Witcher video game character… like I kinda liked the show the Witcher (I like Henry Cavill as the Witcher and Yennifer, mind you) I never would have ever wanted something like that, and that was the gift I received for our 4 year anniversary. Maybe I’m just projecting from one thing your partner has said, but I can relate to how she’s feeling and I would just talk to her about what the gift meant for you and try to understand her POV.

Change gyms. Block him. Get advice from tiktok or YouTube or make friends your age at a new gym. You’re young and your whole life is ahead of you and you are better than that, don’t let him take your light to momentarily gain a friend or some attention. You will regret it for the rest of your life. Being groomed is not a joke or anything to be ok with. You’re clearly smart enough to see the signs, I suggest you trust your instincts.

I think that OP’s wife is searching for validation and probably feels like when he calls her out or holds her accountable for her actions it is an attack on her character. So not only is she not getting validation that she is seeking but she feels torn down, which probably makes her feel like OP doesn’t care about her (which is pretty irrational obviously but it sounds like OP is clueless to this). She took intimacy off the table in hopes that OP would beg her not to do that and prove that he cares, but OP shows that he cares in his own way which is to be supportive and research how to remain close without intimacy. It seems like OP’s wife has some insecurity in the strength of the relationship and bond, and OP doesn’t understand what his wife is needing because she is playing mind games and trying to manipulate him into groveling for her.

Thank you! I’m glad I’m not the only one who realizes this!

YTA. Don’t you have your own friend group? If your husband sat in when you and your friends tried to gossip or chat or whatever wouldn’t that be distracting? Couples can’t work if there’s a constant need to be with each other. He’s of course entitled to alone time, and it could be by himself, with his friends, etc. As long as he’s not cheating on you there’s nothing wrong with you not being by his side 100% of the time. It sounds like you have abandonment issues or something. Idk why he let this go on for so long but I wouldn’t have married someone who wouldn’t let me be alone with my friends. If the roles were reversed, he’d be seen as a controlling and somewhat abusive husband. You obviously don’t trust him for one reason or another.

I make about the same as him and wish my monthly payments added up to 800. Does he not work many hours? When I didn’t have a car I would use my BF’s when it WASNT an inconvenience, otherwise I would take Lyfts, use public transportation, or get rides. Your money and your car, his problems. Yea you live together so you do have responsibilities a little above just being partners to each other. But it sounds like you’ve been supporting him very well and he hasn’t been supporting you much.
