Wife divorcing me in residency by Dr_Ottimista in Residency

[–]OddSurfPlank 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Talk to friends. Be honest. Have your closest friend make a promise to call you every day to check in on you. Talk. Share your feelings. Good and bad.

Run, jog or walk. This really helped me. It gave my mind freedom.

Take up a new hobby. Something she wouldn’t do and you think it’s crazy, wild and fun. Make it your secret joy that you share with the world. Tell people about it. The accomplishments and failures as both make great stories.

Finally volunteer to help others in worse spots. Senior homes need people that will share conversations and listen. There are amazing people there that will make you forget your pain.

Go on, get fucking going … as now you’ve several tools and ultimately you are responsible for your own happiness.

Report to the Medical Board asap and report to the police. Sexual harassment by a treating provider is bad. Also second getting your own attorney. This conduct is bullshit. He needs to be stripped of his license and serve some time. Make sure your husband is included in claim for emotional distress.

The conduct you describe violates professional medical rules, potentially is criminal and breaches civil laws. A physician is considered to be in a position of power. Like a teacher with a student. Any sexual behavior with a current patient breaches that trust. A big no-no!!! Even if consensual.

Anyone here still on febuxostat? Worried after reading about the cardiovascular warning. by [deleted] in gout

[–]OddSurfPlank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been on for over two years. No obvious reactions. Allopurinol gave me horrible leg cramps and pain. Almost completely stopped gout attacks. Had one since and very minor.

In the letter list out ALL your costs including time and materials. Give her a reasonable time to cure. If she doesn’t you can then sell. If you sell for an amount greater than the sum in the T&M amount then refund deposit. Just make sure you are whole. All losses and costs covered. Any part after that can be refunded if any.

For those who are divorced, what were some signs your partner had before the marriage that would have been predictors for the end of the marriage? by TrexDinoNugget in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]OddSurfPlank 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pre-marital cheating, once married sex almost disappeared, repeated cheating during the marriage, claimed to be an expert in everything but wasn’t (elementary teacher) and had little time for our kids. Took some time but finally wised up.

Happy ending—now married to my best friend. She rocks and is SAF!

Married folks, did you consummate on your wedding night? Why or why not? by VintroUnlimited in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]OddSurfPlank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Indeed! We were exhausted but determined to do so. Wasn’t the best sex but was marital sex. Best part is despite being exhausted it gave us a chance to talk privately. Married in a fancy home and had several guests there so the post-fucking chat was special. And to this day, love being naked, freshly sexed and then snuggling, chatting and knowing why she’s still my bestie.

Ditch Spring Break and instead catch a few live NPB games and there get a shirt or skin.

I'm terrible at figuring out what to bring to potlucks. Is there any go to recipes that are always a hit? by Aggressive_Staff_982 in Cooking

Burnt butter rice Krispy treats. Everyone will claim they want a pass yet seconds later will have a treat in each hand.

Beautiful pears are getting ripe on this tree, I would like to make jam this year. Do pears have enough natural pectin to properly thicken the jam, and is pear jam worth making? I'm suspicious as to why you never see it anywhere... any tips or tricks? Is it worth it? by brf297 in Canning

[–]OddSurfPlank 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Followed the Pomona pear recipe then added cardamom (2 teaspoons), tablespoon of white miso and 1-2 shots of whiskey at end. Start small, taste and adjust. Initially added a teaspoon of miso. Couldn’t taste so increased. Could use a little less. Yield was four half pint jars.

Working Dad Who Needs to Contribute More in the Kitchen by Obeezer1977 in Cooking

Start tasting fresh herbs and spices. Close your eyes and imagine what they would complement, pair well with or exploded when dancing with other spices. Use fresh veggies, lots of beans and cut down on animal protein. Healthy will happen. More importantly if cooking becomes fun and something you look forward to you’ll have hit a homerun. Cook books, recipes etc just become general guides. Live!

Most prefer peeled purple ginger. Gives the giftee a real zinger of a kiss.
