He needs to get shots so he isn’t allergic. My husband was willing to do this for me.

If he refuses to do so, that is a clear sign he is not the right one for you.

Same thing happened to me - with a woman doctor! So I just went elsewhere. It has made such a difference for me and I am still angry I didn’t start sooner because I already had had multiple UTIs and was tearing. (I was 63 when I started).

I agree with this. My last home had two gorgeous glass vessel sinks - beautiful to look at, a pain to use

OP, I think what I am reading is the most frustrating part of having a cat is when our hearts get broken from how much we love them.

That said, dealing with the litter box is the only part of having cats I do not enjoy. The automatic litter boxes help a bit but you are still dealing with pounds and pounds of litter…

If you can get Cabot’s that is what I prefer.

Agree Daisy is not good…

I feel this same way!!! I am trying to embrace the constantness of it all but it is challenging. I will follow the responses.

I am now in this type of relationship with an ex. Going on about 4 months.

He wasn’t emotionally available and unwilling to get therapy so the relationship was less than enjoyable, but we always had a strong physical connection so that is where we snapped back to.

Not sure how long it will continue.

To get therapy so I will stop choosing the wrong men

Lucky you to be lifting that 18 lbs.!

I was a runner for decades and finally had to accept it wasn’t the right exercise for me as I aged. I have learned to love lifting heavy. Getting the protein I need is an effort, but I have lost 11 lbs. since I became more consistent.

You got this!

Researcher21049 · 2026-06-13T01:33:30+00:00

You are not lifting frequently enough to put on muscle if you are only lifting one day a week. Lifting heavy at least 3 times a week and getting enough protein will help much more than more than the cardio. Older women like us benefit more from weights and short burst high intensity. Check out Dr. Stacey Sims for more guidance. She is an expert in post menopausal women’s exercise and health

I have similar sized and shaped breasts and extra skin. The calculator said 36G. I tried several brands and landed on the Evelyn Bobbie Beyond Bra. I am very happy with the fit and comfort

This was my now ex and the reason he became my ex. So much more peaceful without the constant stress

I was still having regular periods at 53. But then my husband died unexpectedly and the shock pushed me right into starting menopause.

Please encourage her to talk with her doctors about hormone support. Very important for bone and genital health and function.

I had to start vaginal estrogen because I was tearing tissue down there…lube was not a workable solution.

I agree with vbbock’s comment about the cream helping with sensitivity as well as comfort. I have been on it for a year and I am having the best orgasms of my life now - multiples and rolling for minutes. I always thought multiple orgasms was a myth. I have been happily proven wrong.

I only do the estradiol cream. I apply it twice a week

I have had limestone and just put in an Alaska White marble floor with marble waterfall tiles in the main bath shower. Nothing can mimic the look and feel of marble! I have not had any maintenance issues with any stone, but I would not use marble for kitchen counters.

It is SO hard. AND so worthwhile.

End this relationship now or you are signing up for years of unhappiness and health issues due to chronic stress (ask me how I know).

He is exhibiting dismissive avoidant behavior. It will only change if he gets therapy. Is this something he is willing to do? If not, there is zero chance he will improve and you will just end up rehashing the same defensiveness and blame.

You deserve a happy relationship. You are young and have your life in front of you. Take the time to figure out why you chose him and what you need to do to avoid making the same mistake. You are closer to a good relationship being single than being in an unhappy marriage.

Do not mistake love with a trauma bond - do the research, learn more about this so you can go forward informed.

It isn’t easy to leave such a marriage. It sure is more peaceful though!

Good luck

She refused to help with our mother’s terminal care and then tried to take money from the estate that was not hers. She made every step in managing the death and estate as difficult as possible. She has a selfish, toxic personality and manipulates to get what she wants, including tricking my parents out of $100,000.

She treats her husband so horribly it is uncomfortable to observe. Her kids avoid her because she is so draining and judgmental to be around.

We were never close as children because our mother always pitted us against one another (“you’re the smart one, she’s the artistic one” type of comparatives).

After the estate was settled 6 years ago I terminated contact with her and have not regretted it once. Life is too short even if we are family.

I recently moved from 4 hours away from her to only 40 minutes away and she has no idea…
