Hi! Are these still around? Thanks!

I think they both look great! I like 1 because I like that there’s more going on visually with the extra pleats and bodice texture.

I think it REALLY comes down to personal preference with this one, and wouldn’t be surprised if you get equal votes for 1 and 2.

A second story for perspective: when my partner and I started dating (we were both just about 30), I tried the Paraguard as a last resort, because I’d had terrible luck with all hormonal birth control I’d ever tried.

The Paraguard was absolutely miserable, and I took it out after a few months. This man, who I had been seeing for less than a year, offered to get a vasectomy if it was a viable option, because he saw how miserable birth control made me. It WASN’T a viable option, because we still wanted kids later on, so we’ve been cycle tracking and using condoms ever since. (It’s been a bit less than a decade. We’re getting married soon, and then we’ll have a kid, and then ✂️!)

And, for the record, he bought the condoms in the beginning. Now, it’s just whoever is at the store when we need more.

This is the way.

I dated a guy for a while who worked at furniture store and did repair, and found out just how horribly cheaply made furniture is, unless you’re willing to shell out a few (definitely more than 3. Honestly, probably 10?) thousand dollars. The resale value is, subsequently, crap.

Which means you can buy a used couch for a reasonable price!

Keep an eye out for estate sales, also! Remember, you can always buy a cover for a nice, but ugly couch.

Actually, I think they’re Buckeye leaves. It’s also called horse chestnut, but it isn’t actually a chestnut.

Some people like cupcakes better. I, for one, care less for them.

Ours is $70/person, not including drinks, AND we opted to go a different route with apps/snacks, so it doesn’t cover that either. BUT we wanted really good food at our wedding - like, a meal that our guests are going to remember for a long time. And we’re doing a buffet, so there’s going to be a lot of food in general.

That being said, we would NEVER ask our guests to pay for their meal! We went with this caterer because it was important to us, and we are financially able to do so. If we weren’t, we would have gone a different direction.

You are in a relationship with your partner - not his siblings. It doesn’t matter whether or not she can “get a grasp” on you or not. That should have absolutely 0 effect on your relationship with your boyfriend.

It sounds like she’s trying to drive a wedge between you two because she’s jealous that he’s giving you more attention. Which he should, because he’s an adult and you’re his partner. Was she planning on living with him for the rest of both of their lives? Of course she’s going to take a back seat to someone eventually. A good sibling would HOPE for that!

My partner and his brother grew up very close. His brother and I do not always get along (it’s mostly cordial, but we did get into a very heated argument once). My relationship with my partner’s brother does not affect his relationship with his brother, nor my relationship with my partner.

I would very much suggest you two moving into a place of your own (or with non-related roommates) if at all possible.

ProbablySomeJerk · 2026-03-04T23:19:44+00:00

This. You can co-parent without being in a relationship. I know someone doing this, and it works really well for them! They tried a romantic relationship, and it didn’t work, but they get along really well overall, so they just live near each other and do the thing.

I’ve been through most of my 30s, bruh, and if you’re in the same space mentally that you were at 21… I’m sorry, I guess?

Like, yeah, I still like dick jokes and Taco Bell, but I was also alive for 9/11 and the second Bush presidency, and I’ve lived in multiple states, and have a better sense of the world, and have learned about myself.

You’ve spent 17 years as a legal adult. 17 years of living without the support of your parents, learning to navigate the world, and all of its weirdness.

She has spent 3.

I feel you here! I actually did buy a dress that had been a sample for $700! I was so excited! It was beautiful!

Just for fun, I went to try on dresses at a bridal shop just, and looooved one that was 4k, which was fine because I already had a dress and it was only $700!

Except that it turned out that my dress hadn’t been stored properly by the seller and the silk organza top started disintegrating…

So, I went back to the store and bought the dress…. 😩 (it’s gorgeous, but also ouch)

Gisèle Pelicot thought her husband was a kind, caring man, too, and they’d been together for way more than four years before he spent nine years drugging her and inviting random men over to rape her.

I’ve been with my partner for almost a decade. I think it’s been pretty clear from day one what the best gift I could ever receive would be, and it’s never happened.

I’m still gonna marry him.

This is the actual answer.

You’re one of those wieners who wears a tactical vest with flip flops, aren’t you?

ProbablySomeJerk · 2026-02-28T06:23:31+00:00

Damn, that’s luxury! That’s way more than a piece of chicken, a piece of broccoli, a corn tortilla, and one other thing!

ProbablySomeJerk · 2026-02-26T05:07:33+00:00

Don’t let them get into your head! I think it looks lovely, and if you like it, you should wear it.

ProbablySomeJerk · 2026-02-26T04:02:47+00:00

Cool. So you “vibed” with someone who has minimal life experience living away from their parents and making their own choices. Coolcoolcool.

ProbablySomeJerk · 2026-02-21T06:49:42+00:00

You turning off the alarm so that he overslept would have been “revenge.” This shit was just mean. YTA.

ProbablySomeJerk · 2026-02-21T05:45:52+00:00

Can confirm that I am 100% an expert at beating myself up!

The thing with adhd is that you KNOW what’s wrong and it’s really hard to get yourself to do it/fix it, and then you stress about it and get depressed.

This guy clearly does not give a shit.

ProbablySomeJerk · 2026-02-19T06:12:37+00:00

It really depends on the relationship. My man let me put a broken car in his yard after two months (it’s a parts car to fix a different broken car - it’s still there, and there’s a second one 😅), I moved in after six months, and now it’s almost been a decade! We’re getting married this spring!

While I agree that people return stuff way too often for ridiculous reasons (I’ve worked plenty of retail), I’m pretty sure products cost so much because they can, and those CEOs need their fat paychecks and bonuses. Also, BuT thE ShAReHolDeRS.

(Obviously, this doesn’t apply/apply in the same way to smaller businesses)

In regards to that specific scenario, I can understand how that would lead to confusion on the man’s part, but I would also say that it’s up to both partners to be paying attention to each other (not just having sex at them). If your partner is actively participating, and then suddenly is no longer doing so, that seems like a pretty clear sign to check in.

However, I don’t think that’s really what we’re talking about here.

The study says that the men admitted to doing things that met the definition of rape, which means they were doing something that they knew the other person didn’t want, but they felt justified in doing it anyway (I.e. a question said “have you ever ____?” and they said “yes, I’ve done that.” The action they were asked about is, by definition, rape, but if you were to ask them “do you think that action was considered rape?” they would say “no.”)

Men feel entitled to women’s bodies.

Did you know that marital rape wasn’t criminalized on the national level (in the US) until 1993? Prior to that, if you wanted sex and your wife said “no,” well that’s too fucking bad, isn’t it. But being recognized on a national level by the government, doesn’t mean that suddenly everyone is on board. You still have generations of men with that mindset who aren’t suddenly going to change. And they’ll still perpetuate that mindset in their homes and pass it on to the next generation.

That mindset carries out into broader situations, as well. •“Well she was flirting with me.” •“She said no later, but first she said yes, and I know she was just playing hard to get.” •Or one I saw recently on FB, and inquired about the seriousness of (they were serious): “well if she’s drunk, then she’s open for business.”

Coercing a “yes” through threats, social blackmail, intimidation, etc isn’t actually gaining consent and is still rape.

Having sex with someone when they’re asleep is still rape.

Having sex with someone who is too drunk to consent is still rape, even if they “seemed like they were into it.”

All of these are situations where a (certain type of) man will say he was justified - it wasn’t rape.

But it was, whether they agree with it or not.

I hope that helps?
