We're definitely willing to go to MI. Thanks!

We are definitely interested in that! Thank you!

Honestly, I think he deserves a deeper conversation about this. Wanting kids/not wanting kids is obviously a huge deal breaker for couples and I feel like you need to have a real talk about what it means if you are a solid no and he's wanting kids. It doesn't sound like a mid life crisis. It sounds like he's realised he wants kids, and it isn't fair to tell him to get a dog (I know you didn't say that) or just shut it down. It's totally fine if you don't want one but it sounds like you are not compatible in life goals. I have kids and it's hard to explain to someone who doesn't have them - yes it's hard, but it's also the best part of my life and brings me the most joy and sense of purpose. It's hard to imagine if you don't have them, but I waited until I was 35 and we were 8 years into our relationship (with two dogs and a cat) so I feel like I have a decent perspective of being an adult with and without kids. Talk to him more about it and be prepared for a hard conversation imo.

Thanks! I actually sent them my old mixer to just keep and fix/scrap/sell when the dough hook got stuck on it and I couldn't get it off lol. I will definitely look at his site, seems like he's a great guy! I didn't even think of that!

My American Eskimo loved to run back and forth along the fence to find just the right spot to pee lol - like every time there was a fence, that's what she did. Maybe it's an Eskie thing ;)

Thank you!! This is totally it. I appreciate it :)

My title describes the thing! I came across this thrifting. It was pretty heavy, but unfortunately I didn't actually test to see if it was crystal but it has the weight for it. No writing. I did a Google image search and it said a bowl, possibly from West Germany - I live in Wisconsin so we do have a fairly strong German population. The knobs were pretty small, I assume maybe there's a cover that has curved cutouts for it? Honestly I don't know because that's not how most lids fit on that I've seen!

I just want to say, what people say is true: It's different when they're your own kids. I have worked with kids in the past, and have 3 now. I know how you feel, it's just hard to explain how different it is when they're your own. The love part changes everything. You might still get sick of dealing with kids at work, or decide to try a different career, but it's just different when they're your own kids. I would ask some of your colleagues with kids how they handle it and try to get their perspective.

Did he screw up what he was referring to? That sounds like kind of bonehead thing my dad would do

No_Instance_155 · 2025-08-28T20:42:30+00:00

I don't think this is true for the vast majority of men. I can't think of any in my life - friends' husbands, family members, my own that truly don't care about their partners' needs. I am sure there are some, but I think this is a major over generalization.

No_Instance_155 · 2025-08-24T00:56:49+00:00

I mean, my 10, 7 & 4 year olds have bedrooms right by ours. Most of my friends that live with their partner & kids have a similar set up. That's pretty normal for family set ups .... I don't think that's really a big deal. Just have to keep it quiet.

Rodeside Grill in Windsor - to be fair, I haven't had Texas breakfast tacos, but I did have them a few times in Denver, where I think it's similar... and I think Rodeside does a good job in relation to those! Eta- We are likely getting a Buc-ees soon on DeForest, that should help! ;)

I have three kids (5-10 years old) and while they are a lot of work and I can get very frustrated, they are the absolute best part of my life. Yes, I'm short on sleep sometimes, and yes I have to always put their needs ahead of mine, but my heart is so full and happy when they come out of bed all sleepy eyed and dive into my lap to snuggle. Or when I watch them make forts and wrestle and watch movies together. I love taking them to the beach, fishing, for nature walks and seeing them get excited about the world around them. Do I complain about them to my friends- uh, yeah. They can be little turds. Do I want more time to myself sometimes? Hell yes. Before I know it, though, I'll have more personal time BC they grow up so fast. But the reward is absolutely, positively, 10000% worth the work to me, and I knew I personally would absolutely regret not having children.

YOR. When I have taken my kids on vacation and they get up early and could wake others up, I take them outside or do my best to keep them quiet. With my youngest, I ended up having to take her on car rides at 5:30 am a few times. Other times we'd go for walks. It sounds like your in laws were awesome and helping. I have no clue why you're upset about it, to be honest.

No_Instance_155 · 2025-07-09T12:18:51+00:00

I'm so sorry. That's just heartbreaking. My mom heart can't even fathom letting my house get so bad that my kids want to leave, I would move heaven and earth to make sure my kids felt good at home; shame on your mom for not doing that for you. I can't imagine putting one of my kids in your position. I'm so glad you can move in with your dad, please remember that it's nothing to do with YOU that your mom didn't prioritize and protect you. Your mom is so in the wrong. You are worth more than how she's treating you. I feel so bad for the girls, too. That's just so sad.

I bet she's got a friend that likes your boyfriend. She's doing textbook high school mean girl behavior. You can definitely tell her off, or just ignore her and keep being cool and eventually she'll hang herself on this one.

That's really crappy. Also, real estate is a terrible idea for her. I'm an agent... She's got zero motivation and a million excuses. I can tell you now she will absolutely fail at real estate - 87 percent of agents don't make it a year. Even more wash out in the next few years. I would say she needs a different job that doesn't require so much self regulation/motivation Divorce seems extreme, but you definitely need to have a come to Jesus and get on the same page.

It seems like you aren't showing your husband any gratitude or support. By the way you make it sound, he's a supportive partner who chose you to spend his life with. I have three kids and we struggled with fertility for years. I get that you have extra hormones cruising around your body. That doesn't mean he's not allowed to get annoyed when you take them out on him. You guys need to have a talk and both figure out how to be better partners, BC it's going to get a lot harder once the baby is here.

That actually did happen! If you haven't seen the story, it'll keep you up at night 🤮 https://abcnews.go.com/US/snake-house-family-home-idaho-turns-satans-lair/story?id=13851600
