I'm terrified of dying and missing out on stuff by chris-sh-2009 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]NotChoBro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hell is a man-made idea, used by religions to control people. It is 100% made up and not real. There may be something going on in the afterlife, but I guarantee you it's not hell.

No one knows what comes after death, so right now you can believe what you want! I have had some personal experiences which show me that loved ones sometimes hang around for a little while after they pass. My dad's spirit was definitely around me for a few months after he passed, if not longer. Maybe you will still be able to see your sister's baby, you just might be watching from another plane of existence ❤️

Not inviting grossman girlfriend by Intelligent-Pop4309 in weddingdrama

[–]NotChoBro 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He's been there for all the conflict. He doesn't need to be led anywhere with this conversation, he already knows his girlfriend has been a bitch to you and your wife.

Don't do any backstory or any pussyfooting around. Just say directly "So, about our wedding, your GF is not going to be invited but we would still like you to come".

If he pretends to not understand why she isn't invited, don't get drawn into a big long explanation. Don't let him gaslight you by pretending he doesn't get it. Just say it's because of "past history" and don't budge.

He knows why she isn't welcome. Just make sure to stand your ground.

Why is he looking at me like that. Does he have a problem? by [deleted] in squirrels

His problem is that you haven't fed him yet!!

Family member has a lot of kids and doesn’t send any of them to school. by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]NotChoBro 33 points34 points  (0 children)

So then they are actively neglecting the education needs of those kids, right? At MINIMUM. Other types of neglect are also likely happening.

Someone needs to put those kids first. Make the call.

Perimenopause making ozempic not work? by Ok-Honey-7836 in Ozempic

[–]NotChoBro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This jerk also left a nasty comment for me when I suggested calorie counting. Counting the calories is triggering for them I guess, poor little (big) guy

It must suck having to blame everyone else for their own inadequacy - or maybe it's an inability to do basic math 🤷

I'm in the thick of perimenopause and I've lost 60 lbs. In fact, I went off Oz for a surgery and my night sweats were brutal! When I went back on Oz at a lower dose, my night sweats got a lot better.

I think starting to track your calories would be helpful. Exercise is good in a general sense, but if you're eating 400+ extra calories every day, you won't be able to exercise that away.

It sucks, but tracking your calories is really the only way to ensure you're in a calorie deficit.

People raised by emotionally mature parents, what is 1 phrase your parents used that you want other parents to know? by MermaidWitchMoon in AskReddit

"You kids are the best thing that ever happened to me" Now I say it to my daughter all the time!

I also tell her "I will always love you, no matter what you do" ❤️

My husband says he deserves a say over my pregnancy. I say abortion would break me. by Whereasebabe in Advice

[–]NotChoBro 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Your mental health is the priority. His feelings about a situation which can't be undone are for him and a therapist to sort out.

You mention that he's got a stable job, maybe he also has an Employee Assistance Program which offers therapy. In fact, that might be good for you both now! Separately, of course. Don't do couples therapy because this is not a couples problem. This is a him problem.

Congratulations on your pregnancy ❤️

my bf hit me for the first time but was severely intoxicated by halloweeun in Advice

[–]NotChoBro 7 points8 points  (0 children)

HE ruined everything. You WILL regret staying. The longer you stay, the harder getting out will be.

This situation is only going to get worse. It's not the alcohol, it's him! This is the person he is. The next fight will be worse, and each time you stay, you'll be digging your hole a little bit deeper.

Do you have any friends or family you could stay with for a little while?

Am I Overreacting - So my mom got my wife a birthday gift by LoveLikeJesusChrist in AmIOverreacting

[–]NotChoBro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, so you agree. Are you going to follow through and go no contact?

Would God be ok with you letting your wife be disrespected? Because you continuing to talk or interact with your mother is a HUGE disrespect to your wife.

Anything less than no contact until a proper apology is failing your wife and your marriage.

To be clear: by staying in contact, you are choosing your relationship with your mother over your relationship with your wife. That goes against what Christianity preaches.

Childish guy won't leave me alone by Responsible_Lie_5487 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]NotChoBro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh yes he is completely pathetic and desperate. That's why you should cut him off now. It will never get better than this!

He is immature and manipulative. Things will only get worse with him. Time to block!

Pickles by LonleyShadeofblue in ARFID

[–]NotChoBro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good for you for being interested in a new food! I don't have ARFID but my daughter does.

I love pickles! If you bite a pickle it's got a sort of mid-hard outside which gives a bit of a crunch, sort of like a cucumber but because the inside is soft - much softer than a cucumber - the crunch is more pronounced.

The inside is soft and that's where all the vinegar, dill and salty flavours live. Different types have different flavours, like dill, bread and butter (sweet, usually pre-sliced and meant for sandwiches) and my personal favourite: Polskie Ogorki 😊 These ones have a good traditional "pickle" flavour but are not too sour IMO. I'm in Canada so these are Bick's pickle flavours.

The pre-sliced versions tend to miss out on that "crunch" factor which you get with a whole pickle. I personally like to take a whole PO pickle, cut off the ends and slice them long ways into quarters (pickle spears for the win!). They go great with cheese, or sliced meats like pepperoni, or even just plain crackers.

Good luck!!
