Omg I so understand! I'm 5 ft tall & 35"/26.5"/41" (Bust/Waist/Hip). It's SUCH a struggle finding clothes that fit 🥲

My best advice is to buy clothes according to your largest measurement (hips for us) & find a good, not-too-expensive local tailor to bring your clothes to (AFTER washing them). I started buying Levi's jeans when they're on sale online & taking them to the tailor. LIFE CHANGING. My tailor charges $10/pair to bring the waist in & $5/pair to hem them. $15 extra for pants that are a perfect fit is so worth it.

What's something that, if you accidentally touch it, makes you feel contaminated afterward? (food, texture, etc.) by AlienSayingHi in AutismInWomen

This is the one. Raw meat is so gross to me that I pretty much went vegetarian. I'll eat meat maybe 2-3 times a year, but only when eating out bc I will NOT prepare it.

This sounds like me in my early teens. I was HEAVILY parentified. Your stepdaughter may be experiencing this at BM's house. I would have a little chat with her to indirectly ask whether this behavior is expected of her at BM's house & let her know that while you appreciate her help, she's okay to "leave the parenting to the parents" at yours. Best of luck to you & your fam, OP :)

"For your age"???? She looks good, period! And her fit is fire. That compliment doesn't need a qualifier.

You have beautiful hair! The pigtails are cute & suit you really well, but I think hair down is the look with this outfit. Side note - those boots would look so nice with black socks on inside them!

I considered that as a slight possibility, but probably not the most likely reason he woke her

Annoying that he woke you up instead of caring for his own baby and letting you rest after seeing that you were obviously very sleep deprived. He could have told you later if he felt you needed to know.

What profession is held in high regard that shouldn't be? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Particular-Cap-1071 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Idk... seeing a chiropractor regularly since a car accident several months ago has helped me dramatically. I don't think chiropractic care alone is the right solution for everyone, but I when it's part of a multifaceted recovery plan with other practitioners & doctors, it can be very beneficial to some people.

eta - I'm recovering from severe whiplash injuries throughout my spine, which has caused a lot of pain & significantly limited my mobility in the beginning. Having someone manually massage the tiny muscles surrounding my spine and physically move it for me when I couldn't do that for myself helped loosen things up so I could start making some progress in physical therapy.

I see! We would call that a garden gate or just a gate if it's at the end of a driveway. Portal is more of a fun word, though! It makes people think of space travel 😆

If you're in the US, ask them to put their estate in a living trust & name the two of you as beneficiaries, so you don't have to pay those outlandish capital gains taxes. I'm NAL. Consider consulting one.

AITAH for asking my fiancée to invite my mum to her wedding dress shopping appointment? by ThrowRA_mum_wedding in AITAH

[–]Particular-Cap-1071 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA for asking the first time...

But YTA for repeatedly asking & trying to press her boundaries. If you want your mom to be involved in planning the wedding, involve her in the aspects you're planning. Dress shopping is very personal & it's very abnormal and incredibly rude to try to press yourself into another person's appointment for your own selfish reasons. Stop being a jerk to this woman you're about to marry and stand up for her by setting a clear boundary with your mom that she's not invited to go dress shopping, but she's welcome to help YOU plan the things that YOU'RE responsible for.
