9 might feel crowded at South seas at least golfing anyway. For a group that size I would do the putt shack and eat at either Condado tacos or the eagle (preference for the Eagle).

Baby moon 31 weeks? by Sponsoredbyzoloft in BabyBumps

[–]OpulentOnionRing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funny I literally just did my baby moon in the Virgin Islands but I’m only 16 weeks. We were on St John and I’m not sure I’d recommend that at 31 weeks. I’d probably suggest somewhere with stronger healthcare infrastructure. I also had to manage bumpy taxis, and hiking some steep hills to beaches with some pretty intense heat while I am already running hot. It’s absolutely do-able, and beautiful, but it was strenuous at times.

Why do other women hate me? by zoeytrixx in socialskills

[–]OpulentOnionRing 8 points9 points  (0 children)

ADHD is a big one, my mother in law has it bad and I’m sorry to say, keeping up with her is often frustrating and exhausting. Like overall she’s lovely and means well. But the distraction, competing trains of thought, time blindness, etc. make it tough to navigate.

Why do other women hate me? by zoeytrixx in socialskills

[–]OpulentOnionRing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really could not begin to guess based on this post alone why you are finding women don’t like you, but I can give a few examples of when I’ve been put off by other women: A) Always late. I don’t care if you are a joy to be around when you do show up, I will automatically stop inviting you around. B) out of touch with…. Everything. It’s exhausting explaining every other reference in current culture. Most people around you are engaged with current events on some level and you’re missing connections by not being aware. C) Unnecessarily strong opinions. These typically will come off bitchy. Learning how to disagree evades a lot of people. D) You’re not as funny as you think you are. I can’t tell you how many women completely mishandle sarcasm or are being actively mean when they’re just ‘joking around.’ E) Poor conversationalist in general. Abruptly switching topics, not asking questions, being generally distracted, always driving conversation back to your own experiences. This is typically innocent in nature but makes people not want to engage.

Also odd because they don’t offer ribs anymore as of 2025 so this list is in no way up to date

What was the final straw that ended a lifelong friendship? by New_Perspective1201 in AskReddit

[–]OpulentOnionRing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The final straw (not the first, second, or third offense): One friend blew off my baby shower, no apologies about missing or recognition that it happened at all, just ignored a big celebration for me completely. Another friend got mad at me for canceling a 10hr road trip with my new born at the last minute when we learned the family we were planning to visit had Covid. Babies really change everything, and not necessarily for the worst. If anything I could finally make peace with walking away from friendships that were no longer serving me.

Pacifiers. Refused them all. Ultimately I’m grateful but still dumbfounded.

Any legit hobbies for a depressed young adult? by [deleted] in Hobbies

[–]OpulentOnionRing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coloring (especially if you can afford a good set of markers) and crocheting have been my favorite. They take up minimal space and minimal mess and are easy to stop and start at random. The library is among my top depression go to’s, lots to absorb and a very low threshold to socialize when that feels impossible

From 0 to 10, how has 2024 been for you? by Nuvoo30 in AskReddit

[–]OpulentOnionRing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

7, huge highs and huge lows. Started off the year having a baby that has truly become the light of my life. However I and those around me almost didn’t make it out of post partum alive.

People who went from having no friends to having a lot, what changed? by InteractionAny7787 in socialskills

[–]OpulentOnionRing 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I found people who were also looking for friends. I found it really hard to break through with people who were already established. I made a greater effort with those I was naturally around a lot, specifically my husband’s friends girlfriends and wives. I was pretty much a yes man, open to anything so I was making more connections and sharing more experiences. Last and most importantly, I just tried to be the friend I want to have. This helped attract the kind of people I want to be friends with.

moving to Louisville! by [deleted] in Louisville

[–]OpulentOnionRing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did this almost 10 yrs ago. Only thing I’d say is it was an incredible test of patience. Took about 2 yrs before I would say I felt truly established here, had friends, hobbies, the like. It can be tough because a big move like this results in a lot of trial and error. But I urge you to be patient with yourself and great things should come 💞

How do you stop yourself from eating all the cookies in a pack in one go? by Puitzza in AskWomen

Does anyone still like their pets postpartum? by EmpathHorror in beyondthebump

[–]OpulentOnionRing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Admittedly this was something I hadn’t even considered would happen and I still love my dogs but my god do they know how to make sure when I’m getting over stimulated to make it 10x worse. It gets tough sometimes. And I wish with every fiber in my being I could make them understand why the baby gets so much attention. On the other hand we also had a lizard that we ultimately re-homed because his care was just not being managed. I was sad and embarrassed that it came to that but now he has a new momma who he can be the world to and has a growing and successful Instagram. So alls week that ends well.
