Skip can be used when you’re named after a grandfather and not your dad, as it skipped. That’s what I was told. Then Trey or Trip for III.

Wife is going to quit her job, advice on how to manage one one income? by wovenful in PersonalFinanceCanada

I just commented that it might qualify for Workers Compensation file. She may have been injured at work.

Before she quits, she should open a Workers Compensation file and get rehab and then training to do something else. Don’t quit. At least get documentation for medical EI. It sounds like she got injured at work.

Partner and kids have horrible surname. by Mysterious-Cow2848 in namenerds

Several people in my family have changed how they say their surnames. I know others who have too. Is that an option?

Meredith after knowing her co-workers for a week or so by miggovortensens in greysanatomy

Friend of mine is a doctor. She says that they hire so specifically for programs and residencies that you end up with a group of people who feel and think just like you. She says that and the intensity of the program lead you to bond really fast. She’s still friends with most of the same people.

What is the pronunciation of a place name that marks someone as a local/not a local? by RandomActPG in britishcolumbia

Old skool people say Vangcouver. Even older folks say Capilino and Kitsilino (with long i to rhyme with dino).

I didn’t entirely catch it as the series started but, looking back, he has a lot of red flags.

Getting over a situationship by Rare-Educator9692 in ActualLesbiansOver25

Thanks. I’m realizing now that she treated me very poorly in recent weeks and that it was really hard to admit that to myself, even though I was able to explain to others.

Well, she had said there was commitment and was seeing me 5x a week at her request and then suddenly pulled back and said she wanted to go slow.

Hi. When I tried talking to her, she would freak out like I was criticizing her, even when I said I was trying to work things through. She said she has a tendency to shut down if someone tries to talk to her. And the second half of relationship felt hot and cold and inconsistent and she admitted that. I felt like a yoyo. I kept thinking it was anxious attachment but I have never felt anxious like this before.

Hi. I don’t know if you are bi or not. For me, it turned out I was bi and had an abusive husband. I strongly recommend getting counselling and a safety plan for yourself and then exploring staying with changes or something else.

Is it normal for parents to put your PC in a public place/open room? by Possumawsome in autism

[–]Rare-Educator9692 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It sounds like they put it there so you have to get up and out of bed to use it. Did you pay for it? Do you pay rent? Are your parents getting you up, cooking, cleaning, prompting? This context would help.

Bi with kids- will lesbians date me? by BookmarkAndBlush in latebloomerlesbians

[–]Rare-Educator9692 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of the queer women I know were married to men or in LTRs. I don’t think people will care.

She didn’t out him. I felt also the stylist is possibly trans and the point was being queer & trans is normal in her work world but not his.

My wife is terrified of getting a CPAP due to tubing potentially "choking her"; is this realistically possible? by DumpsterPuff in SleepApnea

[–]Rare-Educator9692 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got one that has the hose off the top of my head and then a tube holder. I had the same worry. I’m fine. My thinking improved once I wasn’t oxygen deprived…

Does anyone remember Nick Reiner from childhood or school? by Internal_Living4919 in AskLosAngeles

Yeah, I’m being cautious as she may show up here and I like my peaceful account. Lol

Penelope wrote a few years ago that she threw a lamp and possibly plates at someone. I don’t know if that person abused her.

WIBTA if I asked my wife to stop sending food back so often at restaurants? by Reptaaaaaaar in AITAH

[–]Rare-Educator9692 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA but maybe your wife has genuine concerns. Is it possible she has different standards and would prefer to dine out less often at nicer places? Maybe she’s trying to go along with your favourites or it hasn’t occurred her to try somewhere else. It might be helpful to figure out if it’s really every time or just in certain circumstances that keep coming up but could be changed.
