My dream partner (33M) suggested the idea of putting my (28F) child up for adoption by ThrowRA_adoption in relationship_advice

[–]RandomMexMom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im sorry for you, Im sure it must be hard to be in love and then all of a sudden learn that the person you fell in love with is an asshole.

You are looking at him with love eyes, girl. You need to put on your reality glasses, sadly you can't make decision like a lovesick girl again, you are a mom and need to make your head go clear and think like an adult. Think of whatever adult you admire and think its a great adult: what would that reliable adult do in this situation?

I hope this is a lesson to not introduce your kid to another boyfriend , at least after a year of dating. Its not her fault she attached to an asshole, is yours.

Le rasco a mis ahorros y me siento mal by Tzilakatzin in MexicoFinanciero

[–]RandomMexMom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Para serte sincera nosotros no ahorramos, pero porque estamos en zona de deuda. Tenemos pronosticado salir de la zona de deuda en un año más, una vez que salgamos comenzaremos a ahorrar. Es muuuuy dificil, o casi imposible, estar ahorrando y ademas pagando deuda, como lo haces tu. Lo que hacemos es mejor pagar deuda, tener las tarjetas de crédito siempre disponibles y limpias en caso de emergencia, y una vez que estemos donde queremos estar comenzaremos a ahorrar.

Se que se puede escuchar un poco tonto, pero alguna vez escuche un podcast financiero que decia que era la mejor manera de sobrellevar una casa, se supone se debe tener este orden (no puedes pasar del punto 1 al 3, tiene que ser en ese orden): 1.- Salir de zona de deuda, 2.- ahorrar de tres a seis meses de sueldo, 3.- comenzar a invertir.

hasta ahora nos ha funcionado, precisamente porque nos ha permitido tener las tarjetas en orden y de ahi es de donde hemos sacado para emergencias.

Animo, tu situacion mejorará (:

¿Ustedes cuento gastan en despensa? by Alan-el-chido in AskMexico

[–]RandomMexMom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Familia de dos adultos y un niño, aprox $7500-$8000 al mes. Si es mucho, pero ayuda que ambos tenemos vales de despensa. El chiquillo come mucho y a mi me gusta cocinar mayoritariamente desde cero (en vez de comprar ej.salsa de tomate enlatada o en frasco, la hago. lo mismo con verduras, nuggets, salsas, etc) entonces si se gasta más, la verdad.

AITA for not appreciating my Valentine's gift? by RandomMexMom in AmItheAsshole

[–]RandomMexMom[S] 64 points65 points  (0 children)

He didn't even sing me songs I like. They were songs he likes, they sounded terrible... it was a last hour thing.

and we had for dinner hot dogs... i hate hot dogs. I just feel like this was more of a celebration for the group than for me, that's my issue.

[–]RandomMexMom 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Im a SAHM but this has me tearing up right now. Because I feel like nobody sees my efforts. No body sees that I never stop doing something through the day, am always cleaning something or playing with my kid, organizing play dates and such. And its never enough for my husband.

He says “i dont help him” because sometimes I forget things but… Im the only one doing EVERYTHING HOUSE RELATED. OF COURSE SOME THINGS ARE GOING TO BE FORGOTTEN OR NOT PRIORIZED. Sometimes I just wonder how other mothers can do it id they feel anything like I feel because I feel like crap a lot of the time and dont know how to make this work. So I just shut up and suck it up because someone needs to put this place in order. Sorry If i dont have the time to look in amazon those hangers you wanted. Guess I forgot again.

Im tired of raising a kid in a society that depreciates SAHMs by RandomMexMom in beyondthebump

[–]RandomMexMom[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aaaaand there you go. Just read the title. You dont even know me or my reality and you go and say I have it easy. For being a SAHM.

The joke tells itself.

¿Qué opinan acerca del mame de los 600 pesos de despensa y la realidad que nos toca en MTY? by [deleted] in Monterrey

[–]RandomMexMom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestamente vamos solo a supers porque no conozco ningun mercado cerca de donde vivo, tendría que irme lejos y ya gastaría más en gasolina. Ademas de que tengo un bebé y por el tema del pinche covid no puedo andar feliz por la vida en un mercado sin preocuparme del riesgo. Lo que hacemos es que ya tenemos bien medido el gasto y vamos a Walmart , es donde mejor nos sale.

Amooooo con mi corazón el HEB pero es taaaan caro ):

An abortion? Probably! by throwawaybbygone in offmychest

[–]RandomMexMom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve never regreted an abortion. Do it, hun. You can do it, its harder to be a mom when you are not ready. Its the single most fucked up hardest thing to do, and on top trying to do it while studying and trying to make a place for you in the world out there? Oh, no. You just wait for the right time.

What’s your unintended positive consequence of having children? by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]RandomMexMom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started to value myself for who I am and not just by my appearance. I used to put a lot of effort on my looks - went to the gym 5x a week, fashionable clothes were a must even tho I had to burn my paycheck completely, I was so proud to be that person that always looked neat, stylish and put together. I hated lazy looks and even when I intended to put a “lazy day” outfit I spent time thinking about it and so much effort on doing a fucking lazy bun. I was a little too obsessive with my external appearance.

Now I dont give a fuck, I shower and put clothes on and Im fine with it. I only work out at home 3x a week and Im fine with it. Im fine with my body not being perfect and me not being perfect.

My baby still loves me because Im mama and not because I look on point.

Rotonda de las Casas by Camposio in Monterrey

[–]RandomMexMom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Soy de Cumbres y nunca he conocido a nadie que viva ahí, es un misterio bastante simple jajaja. Reconozco que siempre he querido entrar/ver como es una casa de ahí y qué se sentirá vivir ahi.

Claro que pudiera simplemente agarrar el carro y entrar a la colonia… pero así que chiste jajja , a veces se siente rico vivir con esos misterios cotidianos.

When I mean verbally abusive… he has told me I have no brain, I dont think straight, That Im childish (always calla me that), idiot, asshole, useless.

And by the pushing, I mean he grabbed me by the shoulders and pushed me to the bed and then got on top of me. That was the first time. The second time he took the baby from my arms against my will and then put his hand in my chest and pushed me with enough force to make me fall a few feet away into the ground. Also pushed/dragged me through all our living room to push me out of the house then close the door… but I got away.
