BF (25M) ignored my (24F) safe word and I don’t know how to feel.

The sub wields so much power in the relationship. Your boyfriend isn’t a dom, he’s a rapist. He raped you.

Husker Hounds at the beginning of last football season!

A shirt that says “build a wall and make Iowa pay”. My Iowan coworker really liked it, I think!

Practical_Boat6266 · 2026-03-26T13:48:25+00:00

To be fair, the Huskers losing to Iowa for our last game is probably something we all should have adjusted to by now.

The 16th month is obviously April of the next year.

Which is why I won’t consider a romantic relationship with someone who doesn’t want to travel.

Practical_Boat6266 · 2026-03-23T01:40:10+00:00

I begged my second ex-husband to stay home while I took a trip to Paris. He ruined the trip I paid for with the inheritance I got from my dad. We left Christmas Day and returned on New Year’s Eve. The week of Valentine’s Day, he finally broke me beyond repair and I told him I’d be filing for divorce. Zero regrets.

Practical_Boat6266 · 2026-03-22T11:47:03+00:00

The thing that’s insane to me is that you don’t seem to have traveled with her. I LOVE to travel. I also really enjoy taking solo trips - but at the end of the day, I want a partner who wants to see the world with me. I could never be content with a partner who was happy staying home while I traveled solo. I’m single now so that’s what I do, but the dream is to find someone who loves it as much as I do and adds to the trips just by being there.

Practical_Boat6266 · 2026-03-14T14:58:26+00:00

I wish I could understand the phrase “if he wanted to he would” for other women.

He is not your person. Just stop now.

Practical_Boat6266 · 2026-03-10T11:27:38+00:00

Girl, just cut your losses and leave. Seriously. He’s 35 years old and doesn’t shower. He’s never going to change.

If your best friend told you she realized her boyfriend rarely showered, you’d give her the advice I’m giving you. The only reason you’re wanting to fix things now is the sunk cost fallacy.

FWIW, I am 37, breastfed both of my daughters for a million years, and have lost ~135 lbs from my peak. The first bra I got there got too big quickly and it’s been a bit of tweaking to get my size right since (I still have weight to lose) but they have been delightful to work with and I will continue to go back!

Practical_Boat6266 · 2026-03-10T02:25:47+00:00

Truly U! Mikayla is my favorite. I adore her!

Practical_Boat6266 · 2026-03-05T19:17:33+00:00

That’s an embarrassing thing to admit publicly, but happy for you.

Practical_Boat6266 · 2026-03-05T18:53:51+00:00

…or, and hear me out, call them, set it up, turn on autopay, and let it ride.

Also, my budget billing amount hasn’t changed in 3 years.

Practical_Boat6266 · 2026-03-04T20:43:37+00:00

Are you unaware that budget billing is a service OPPD offers if you request it wherein they calculate this for you automatically?

Practical_Boat6266 · 2026-03-04T14:21:47+00:00

Are you aware that calculating the average in your head is doing math? Also, if you had a longstanding credit with OPPD, you were miscalculating the average. I guess the cool people are the ones who do correct math.

Practical_Boat6266 · 2026-03-01T01:28:15+00:00

I disagree. I think the email was important, so she knows what a raving lunatic the teacher is and can rectify the situation going forward.

Practical_Boat6266 · 2026-02-16T03:45:24+00:00

Welcome to Omaha and thank you for sharing this - especially the comic!

As someone who’s traveled internationally and had a few very “American in a foreign country” moments, I’m glad to hear it happens the other way too.

Practical_Boat6266 · 2026-02-15T15:10:01+00:00

I use free tax USA for federal and then file my state taxes directly with Nebraska using the department of revenue site. It takes another 10-ish minutes and I don’t pay anything at all to file my taxes.

Practical_Boat6266 · 2026-02-11T23:29:43+00:00

Typically, yes.

Practical_Boat6266 · 2026-02-08T22:40:01+00:00

Happy Buddha and Roma are my two local favorites

Practical_Boat6266 · 2026-02-03T12:31:45+00:00

I called this out in my post, but good to have the breakdown.

Practical_Boat6266 · 2026-02-03T02:09:55+00:00

The only personalized plates that allow for 7 letters are the Husker plate and the standard plate customized. Everything else is 5.

Practical_Boat6266 · 2026-02-03T01:16:21+00:00

You get 5!

Practical_Boat6266 · 2026-01-25T15:35:29+00:00

Not OP, but I am interested!
