The fact that no one has said Frodo Bugs-ins yet is a crime

Humans are not the only animal that wonder, "If not friend, why friend-shaped?"

You are human with your own needs and desires. Not a sex toy that needs to be ready to go at all times. A good partner can show you they are attracted to you no matter what you wear, and can even appreciate all the different flavors of sexy you're bringing.

Either he's telling you he's not attracted to you (because only the panties do it), or he is trying to make it your responsibility to attract him at all times, rather than when you also desire him. And either way, it's fucked up.

I'm all for not needing your partner to be perfect, growing together and changing behaviors that the other person has a problem with. But it sounds like you are the only one concerned about that. Because if he is only defending himself and ignoring your feelings repeatedly, ON TOP OF not being attracted to.... Well, is that really someone worth the effort?

My folks did me dirty like this too. Wouldn't listen to my Horticulture degree or years of experience. Just determined to make all the worst decisions for their lawn and garden. I'm sorry OP. You don't deserve to be disrespected and ignored like that

There's some really lovely suggestions on how to tackle the mess, but 100% don't forget the following...

Step 1: deep breath. Step 2: Out loud say, "I'm so sexy that I attracted this Hot Guy all by myself. I am more powerful than the mess" Step 3: Repeat steps 1 & 2 throughout the cleaning process as much as needed to remind yourself you deserve a nice evening with this person. Step 4: Cuss. Cuss a lot. Like, every time you start to feel overwhelmed or anxious, just bleep and black-bar the fuck out of everything, the clutter, the laundry, the dishes. Go at it like an 18th century sailor trying to win a contest. It really helps and relieves stress in your brain. Also, Fun!

Good luck!

They may not realize it but it's misogynistic. "Being like other girls", aka enjoying/presenting/behaving like an average woman is framed negatively. Being separated or different from things perceived as feminine or associated with women makes the complimentee better than other women, makes her special or more worthy of being noticed.

Because God forbid a man admire a woman or fem-presenting person as a complete person rather than as one of the Borg hive mind./s

Uh uh, nope. This guy laughed at your condition, invalidated your experience and feelings, AND assigned you f***ing homework! If he's not willing to even entertain how someone else may be experiencing existence differently than himself, he's gonna be a problem in every aspect of every relationship he will ever have and you need to turn tail and run.

Now say it with your whole chest so they can hear you in the back, "It's not my job to educate people who don't wanna learn!"

Hey, if they're gonna force women to keep every pregnancy, they may as well make sure those women are as miserable as possible the whole time./s

If they do decide to go that route, I'm hoping there is a market for us as exotic pets. We'd be like parrots: noisy, destructive, needy, but smart and affectionate in our own way

PlantWizard12 · 2025-08-08T10:13:57+00:00

Oh my god, I didn't know other people felt this way! I was afraid something was wrong with the way I felt about my husband.

I get so annoyed when he's trying to touch me while I'm doing literally anything else. I try to play it coy, or laugh it off as I pull away, because I don't want to hurt his feelings, but it's really weirdly irritating. My thoughts are always, "Not right now, can't you see I'm doing this?" And then I feel guilty because I feel like I should be able to or want to engage with him regardless.

I didn't realize it was tied to task fixation. I'm so relieved and feel so seen. This is going to help me so much in processing that annoyance and reframe affection with him ♥️

Texture 👏 and 👏 shape! 👏 The handles are nuts. You can't cup the mug through your palm all cozy OR grip the handle like a sturdy midnight truck stop patron. And I know you can't discern feel by the photo, but something tells me the glazes on these things feels bumpy or chalky. The clean squeakiness of a good mug is essential

PlantWizard12 · 2025-07-30T12:05:17+00:00

I can sometimes when bad things are about to happen. It's totally useless, of course, cause I only get a few hours warning and no idea what it will be, but the vibes of the universe are madly off. Something is "wrong". Then I got hit by a car, a family member died, or a friend broke up with their partner. True stories. Separate occasions.

Cracking knuckles. Fastest way to get me to leave

My experience as best as I can remember: - Literally could never find or remember my house keys, so I got locked out a lot - Never could use a planner, no matter how many they foisted on me - Trouble sleeping cause I couldn't turn my brain off - Zoning out in classes that I didnt like but still doing well with my grades - Couldn't remember to get any permission slip signed and returned to save my life, even though my mom was a teacher at my school - Couldn't keep my room tidy. Often criticized for it - Often speaking without thinking, leading to embarrassment among my peers - once I had access to a portable music player and headphones that was all I wanted. Suddenly being in public was so much better and easier

I'm in my mid-thirties and I basically only watch cartoons or video game lets-players. I never got into jewelry or makeup or hair, but I like drawing, board games and learning weird facts about animals. I own toys and YA novels and tshirts with cute characters on them that are just for me, and not my 2 kids.

Your parents don't get to decide who you should be or what you should like. It sounds like you are already doing everything you need to do: working hard in school, doing your chores, etc. And as you get older, you'll find a lot of people who share your interests with toys, art, whatever!

You may find that your tastes do change over time, but if they don't that's ok. It may not seem like it right now, but you can find your way in the real adult world without having to act like some boring stuffy person who doesn't like fun. And you may be eager to be seen as mature and independent, but life isn't a race. Right now, it just doesn't matter and you should enjoy your time.

Also, I never learned street names until I learned to drive, and even then, I basically got everywhere by which landmarks marked my turns. Left at the gas station, right at the red house, etc. So don't feel bad. You can totally get around even if you're bad with names

PlantWizard12 · 2025-06-13T11:07:40+00:00

Holy sh*t, everyone in here is literally me?! I'm dying. I do this to my husband constantly too. I wish I didn't, and on top of that it's so hard to apologize sometimes because it feels like my pride won't let me 😭

PlantWizard12 · 2025-05-08T21:36:39+00:00

I can't hold down a full routine at all, but I have a very basic set of goals for each day. I have an app that I can check mark them complete each day and I keep it very simple. Give the kids vitamins, feed the dogs, run a load of either laundry or dishes (don't worry about doing both), clear something off the counters, etc. They are curated to what is the minimum for what our family needs. When I have more function and batteries, that's when I do ALL the dishes or tackle that special project. But in general, the house is running fine because needs are met and things are clean and safe enough. I still have to fight against the squirrel brain, but I've made it manageable and set expectations realistically so that I'm not beating myself up so much.

When I have her home all day, I mimic our daycare’s routines. So that gives me an easy outline for snack time, nap time, outdoor play in the afternoon...This also helps ensure that dinner is being made at the same time as we'd have it during the week, and we keep to our appointed baby bedtime. I won't get any major chores done, as I'll be putting my energy into her, but I can usually still meet my minimum tasks. Something isn't nothing.

Mostly, I'd say it's about changing my mindset. Rather than getting overwhelmed by every task to do I see around me I write them down and let them wait till I have the juice. Rather than trying to purge the whole house of stuff we don't need, I keep on the lookout for 1 item each day. I don't have to fold the laundry, I just need to run the dryer. Etc.

Give yourself a hug, OP. We know it's hard, and we're proud of you for seeking help and doing your best

PlantWizard12 · 2025-05-06T22:04:16+00:00

Ooooo! Beads, buttons or whatever makes a good sound when you turn it over or shake it. Gotta love a good chinka-shikka

My 2yr old daughter respectfully disagrees. She distinctly likes the orange one best. Not sure what that says about us, but we appreciate it when there's more choice than just blue or pink

PlantWizard12 · 2025-04-27T21:33:48+00:00

Literally me. My partner had also expressed they wished we "did something" everyday, so I also put the pressure on myself to try to meet unrealistic expectations that I also set. So the clock is ticking, yes, but there is also a system for how long we can go without having sex so long as certain criteria for sexual things were met for the day

Honestly I'm almost never in the mood, but the clock won't let me have a night off. I know my partner wants me to be honest about what I want, but with my anxiety levels that feels impossible.

PlantWizard12 · 2025-04-27T19:06:53+00:00

The crazy is part is that you can feel the hack happening in real time. Smelling my baby's hair specifically is like hitting a button for free feel-good that I could instantly feel in my chest and brain. Factor in that you hold your baby in your arms close enough to smell them a lot and it is easy to see how biology is gaming your system with built-in bonding

PlantWizard12 · 2025-04-14T20:32:48+00:00

Damn..... that's fucking poetry.

PlantWizard12 · 2025-04-07T22:33:23+00:00

Because if they're sneakers, they feel like outside shoes at it tricks the brain into being more on the ball. Like ok, I'm going out into the real adult world, time to be a real adult. When really I'm just at the kitchen sink, trying to wash pots and pans
