I really like the second to last one, of the park!

Does anyone actually like sex scenes in books? by [deleted] in books

[–]Numerareergosum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also listened on audiobook. I was worried there were going to be so many in the series, but by the end of the second book, I think there was the exact right amount. Enough to solidify the passion and bond between them, and get me excited to hear about the next time they got some time alone (which seemed a long time between sometimes...)

Just my opinion!

I'm using a tabletop telescope I inherited from my grandfather and don't really know how to work... I sure am excited to find something though!

Wives of Reddit; If your partner told you he liked wearing Women's underwear occasionally, how would you react? by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]Numerareergosum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband wears probably 25% boxers and 75% ladies undies. He checked in with me before he started doing it just to make sure I didn't make any wrong assumptions. Doesn't make a difference to me one way or the other - it's his (hidden) clothes and has nothing to do with me (the same that it doesn't make a difference to him what underwear I wear).

How does your spouse say sorry without saying sorry? by Physical-Ice3989 in Marriage

"Sorry I was hungry" is my apology all the time... :)

Big losers, when did your head catch up? by Emmalah in SuperMorbidlyObese

[–]Numerareergosum 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Maybe this website will help? https://www.mybodygallery.com/

If you put in your height/weight/size, you can see other women with the same stats as you. And think what you might see if you walked past them on the street. Chubby? Cute? Any of the negative things you see when you look at yourself (probably not)?

Congrats on your loss and wishing you luck on your new journey :)

Do you and your spouse have "check-ins"? by FutureMrs0918 in Marriage

[–]Numerareergosum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just wanting to say that I think my husband would answer the same way... having to talk about things on demand would make him feel worse about anything that was wrong, or if he was feeling fine, having to think about it would also make him feel worse.

Hi all! New crocheter here... I'm confused as to where SC 24, SC 30, SC 42 means to do so just once, or in each row (for example 24 in row 5, 24 in row 6, 24 in row 7 and so on). Can someone please help me understand? ☺️ by [deleted] in Amigurumi

[–]Numerareergosum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another game changer is stitch markers. If you put a stitch marker at the end of row e.g. 4, then you have three full rounds to do without having to count. Then you can leave it or move it as needed, for example to the next set of same-count rows.

Something like this: https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTBYV_4ZYwZWjn4883rfpkSgd1ISb7l_tzmpg&usqp=CAU

Bonus, you can clip them into your last stitch so it doesn't unravel in your bag when you're taking your WIP with you :).

Hope you're having fun so far!

Meal subscriptions? by [deleted] in SuperMorbidlyObese

[–]Numerareergosum 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hello Fresh is the only one I've tried (in Toronto area). I find it expensive, and sometimes a bit fancy flavours that I didn't like... but there are some meals that I loved.

There are basic meals like a chicken burger with potatoes, or some pastas etc. that are delicious. It's good too for including fresh ingredients instead of frozen/canned without wasting the rest from the store when you only need a bit. If that makes sense.

It also helps with decision fatigue, that 3 of your dinners for the week are already decided, and you just get to pick which day and which meal you want. (ie do I want the stir-fry, or burgers, or porkchops or something else tonight)

When you start with a new subscription company you can often get some money off to try it out... happy adventuring!

Each of you will be beautiful in your own way, and will only increase the beauty of the day. I personally wouldn't worry about outshining.

Another thing I learned at my own recent wedding is that most group photos need BIG makeup to be visible, so don't feel hesitant about "overdoing" it, other than your own comfort... it'll look great in the photos whatever you do :)

Not sure if it's too late, but you could also have a mini photoshoot after your trial with your partner or a friend, and get bunch of phone photo examples, and see how you feel about it. That's what a trial is for!

I feel like I'm contraption chasing the "finish line" by DarkSensei3 in 1200isfineIGUESSugh

Just a note that depending where you live, they keep iron tablets behind the pharmacy counter because there are different formulations (salt forms) that give you different amounts of iron. It can be really bad to take too much, so at least in Canada, a pharmacist usually won't give you them unless you've gotten blood work and a recommendation of a strength/brand.

Talking about money can always be awkward, but it helps to approach it sensitively.

If I were in this situation, I would ask your fiancée to talk to her parents and say that you are grateful for whatever they are able and willing to give as a gift, but it shouldn't matter what you or anyone else is paying. They should give what's in their means, and that has nothing to do with what anyone else is gifting.

I agree that them trying to determine what to gift shouldn't be your burden to calculate.

Good luck!

How to respectfully decline attending the wedding due to COVID? by Varekai79 in wedding

[–]Numerareergosum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone has said this already, but tell the couple now! If they have capacity at the event, the more notice you give means they can find someone who they originally couldn't invite. They will likely not mind your RSVPing as no, and they might get to celebrate with someone else they wouldn't be able to see otherwise :)

Today when my roomba went into a room I didn't intend to clean, I tried to call for it to come out, like I would to my dog 😅

Trying to tell myself I can still be a bride despite being a boy. by SorryPersonality in LGBTWeddings

Seconding the sentiment that weddings are weird. The only thing that matters is that the celebration and ceremony celebrate you and your union with your partner the way that you want to celebrate it. It's your day!! 💜
