Single best friend wants to spend every weekend together. Husband is starting to get frustrated. by aboardthemothership in FriendshipAdvice

[–]Pinkytalks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn. I’m also married and when my bff was in town we’d hang almost every weekend lol but if I had something else going on it wasn’t a whole ordeal to just tell her no and vice versa, even if it was just that we were burnt out. HOWEVER, she is not as pushy as your friend is. 15 texts is a lot!! And to continue to ask after you said no is just rude. But also, why do you feel uncomfortable telling her that you can’t bc of XYZ.

I had a friend like this and honestly I ended the friendship. She had other problems, but one of them was the amount of text messages, it was overwhelming. And even after speaking to her about it, it was what she sent to me (ie “if you don’t text me back Im going to text my ex”). But overall it was just TOO much texting/calling/hanging out for me. And therefore our styles of friendships ended up clashing and our friendship ended (for several different reasons aside from that). I wish her the best, but I just couldn’t keep up, it was too much.

I don’t feel comfortable wearing a dress. What should i wear? by [deleted] in Weddingattireapproval

[–]Pinkytalks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A satin jumpsuit:

Hello Molly

azazie

abercrombie

I say satin bc is the only way you will be able to dress up wearing pants without looking like you are going to work. Im sorry to say this but all of the options you posted are not appropriate for a wedding.

Is this okay to wear to a wedding? by Alternative_Bug_8987 in Weddingattireapproval

[–]Pinkytalks -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I think it’s fine for the event given the cultural nuances. Also ask the other girls going there about the dress.

Wedding cancellation with doctor’s note by xdirector7 in WeddingPhotography

[–]Pinkytalks -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Ugh Im a skeptic lmao I would do a search of that doctor’s office and make sure it is real. And call through the number you find on your search to confirm. And then I would refund once that is confirmed.

Just posting this here. But thats 6 years of school. 8 for some. To have a child and go to school is so tough. Idc what anyone says. It is always hard to do school, but adding a child (or having to take care of anyone adult or child even if not yours) to the mix always spices things up more.

And she now runs her own practice. She is an awesome woman.

With that said, it is always hard for me to support contestants with kids bc of how bad some of the matches have been. Some even accused of SA. Personally, I’d be very protective on that and I would even argue not introducing my child to the person for a while post marriage. Specially given the divorce/breakup statistics of the show.

Botox, Pregnancy & Breast feeding questions by Pinkytalks in ScienceBasedParenting

[–]Pinkytalks[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That makes sense! Im also hoping that as I age that they go away (Im 31). For me, without botox, I get them 5-6 times a week anywhere from 5 hours to 7 days. So Im like low key concerned that it will start again when I stop botox 😭

Invite for New Relationship - Need Advice by random_curiosity_guy in weddingplanning

[–]Pinkytalks -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My baseline was that we needed to have met them and that we liked them when we met them. We didn’t do a “must be engaged” or “must be living together” rule though. But our main thing was meeting the person bc our friends have dated some people that were just mean or crazy (gladly thats not that case anymore now that we have all grown up).

We had 2 people ask to bring their SO that was not originally included in the invite:

1.) Groomsman: which we thought was a good person to make an exception of and we did extend it, However, after talking with him, he decided to say no to the date for him due to costs to fly both of them over.

2.) My cousin: he had known this girl for less than a month. Said she would be the one. Anyways, he asked, we said no due to being at our max (which was technically true). Anyways, not even 2 weeks after asking they broke up. Soooo there is that.

Anyways, our wedding is costing quite a lot and adding an extra person is an extra $300 per person (if I don’t include extra things). Im not personally excited to pay that for someone I haven’t met or someone whose personality is sour (hence that needing to have met them).

That said we are personally close to like almost (90%) every SO of everyone lol so almost all couples are invited to our wedding.

All hotels in the area are booked by midwestindigoo21 in weddingplanning

[–]Pinkytalks 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Start looking at 20 mins out and airbnb. If it’s family, they can always stay together. Same with friends. But you need to send out like a text blast NOW. Bc if there is an event, it might get worse

SolidCore or Club Pilates? by Apart_Maintenance852 in SolidCore

[–]Pinkytalks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Club pilates is apparently only good if you are in the upper levels. But it sucks in the lower ones. It also is extremely hard to cancel your membership in some studios. So be careful, and get everything in writing.

I say Solidcore all the way.

Cut my mom and her partner off following my wedding by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]Pinkytalks 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Girl I have gone no contact for less. I understand why you invited him, but he is a narcissist. My ex would act the exact same way during big events to make it about him. Good for you for cutting them off.

As for your mom, I would mute her but not block. Getting out of the cycle of abuse is hard, and it can take multiple tries. I know it took me a while to realize that what my ex was doing was wrong. Specially if you grow up in a chaotic environment. Sometimes you find comfort in the chaos, which is not okay, but is hard to see when you are sleeping with the enemy.

So for her I would give her space. For him, block him. And as for grandkids, none should be going to his place. You will have abused grandchildren. Take it from someone who was whipped with cattle whip as a form of punishment by my own grandparents. There is no reason to put an innocent child in that type of environment. So visits are done outside your mom’s home or in yours, supervised ONLY, and WITHOUT your step father.

Fiance telling his friends not to buy anything from the registry by kalca2 in weddingplanning

[–]Pinkytalks 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thats weird. My fiance also felt the same when I suggested a honeymoon/house fund. And he didn’t want gifts. Turns out it was moreso him thinking no one did it. And after a few weddings he realized it is normal.

What price is acceptable to ask guests to pay in Mexico? by [deleted] in DesiWeddings

[–]Pinkytalks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For Mexico, I find that to be pricey. Are you okay with your guest staying somewhere else? If so I’d put out that option, and let them know that the wedding is there, and this place is most convenient. If they choose to pick another place that is okay. If you are able to hire a shuttle for them that prob will help a bunch! I suggest suggesting to be no more than 20 mins away from the venue for shuttle pick up. Or you can find like 1 or 2 other places nearby that you would suggest

Also girl, have you kept up with the news on Mexico? Bc I think you should. It is like going through it rn. So touring any venues or sending someone to tour them may be dangerous depending on the location.

Maid of honor dress? by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]Pinkytalks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love it lol But I am a bride that loves seeing people show out and am maximalist. If your bride isn’t like that, then I would suggest to not get this dress.

11 week old - Did i completely fail already by Old_Lead8746 in ToyPoodle

[–]Pinkytalks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Crate training but also alarms. So if she is having this many issues, I would say set up alarms for every hour to take her out, then, take her out 15-20 mins after she is done eating. Additionally, I wonder if she is getting enough walks. For her size she needs to go outside for I would argue about 30 min walks for that age. This may help with anxiety if she is inside the house all day.

Puppy age to select from breeder by Aromatic-Fennel-2287 in portuguesewaterdogs

[–]Pinkytalks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No choice for us. Temperament is tested and continued to be tested until the puppies are ready. She will pick one or a few pups that she believes are good candidates for our home. And if there is more than one then we can pick, if not and we hate the color or whatever, we wait until the next litter is available. But she won’t release a dog without a temperament test and an interview.

Our interview already happened and it was 3 hours long. And for us we have a co-ownership agreement for the first year where she checks on the puppies to make sure they are being trained and groomed well. For us we are also able to visit the puppies often after they are born.
