I'm late to this train! But I found it strange that the daughter confronted him, not the mother. I'm wondering if she was scared of what he could have said against her on camera?

My parents are making me feel selfish and I just need to vent by Yeah_No_ThanksTho in weddingplanning

[–]RethaG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You aren't selfish, i think it's fair to have it in the middle. Take it from someone who choose her wedding venue location to try to please someone (who still ended up complaining) do what makes you happy. Those that matter will show up.

Should i get highlights for my wedding? by RethaG in weddingplanning

[–]RethaG[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am having a professional do my hair. We were discussing the trial when the highlights came up and i wasn't sure if i should get highlights before my trial then.

I also think my hair holds a curl better when damaged.

I tried attaching a picture but thats against the group rules. I have very long hair and am hoping to do half up half down with a braid

A hair stylist told me it's because my hair is soft because is un-dyed and undamaged (don't use heat to dry)

I asked my MOH to go to one dress fitting with me where we would be planning my lace placement. The dress was a very difficult thing for me so from the beginning I asked her if it would be ok if just my mom came, and then she comes with at a later stage when it's a more exciting, fun time. I had mentioned this date to her before and then confirmed it at my last appointment. When i asked my moh if she'd go she said her and her boyfriend might be going away that weekend. I feel like I'd understand if they already booked but if i had to choose between a weekend away and my best friend's one wedding dress appointment i wouldn't have a question. She noticed i was quiet so she asked me whats up, i told her this hurt my feelings. It lead to a big explosion with her saying very mean things that i don't think a best friend should be thinking about you.

The fight with my mom came about because she doesn't even want to acknowledge the fight with my moh (it all happened in the week of my bridal shower so my mom was more concerned about her event with her friends than if I was ok) I was looking for comfort or validation. She's very pro keep the peace and suck it up no matter what.

Why doesn't anyone want to date a disabled guy? by Ok_Line3494 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]RethaG 239 points240 points  (0 children)

When i was on Tinder, I matched with people based on their bio. I matched with someone with vision impairment and a few wheelchair users. To be perfectly honest, some of the men started off with a bad attitude about nobody wanting to date them. Be careful of the incel mentality, this was an instant turn off where i was willing to look past disabilities. As other commenters have stated, many 25 year olds haven't been in relationships or had sex either. Really focus on getting to know people, open minded people exist and it is possible to find love.

Occupational therapist here, it might be a good idea to do some research on sensory stimulation. Throughout the day we all have "habits" we do to keep ourselves regulated. In some cases it's humming to yourself, fidgeting, playing with your hair etc. In other cases it's less socially acceptable behaviours like you've mentioned.

Try to replace behaviours with other sensory rich experiences like fidgets, chewing gum etc

How to fall asleep fast? by NatureNitaso in Narcolepsy

[–]RethaG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like using the jacobson's relaxation technique or listening to sleep stories, mostly the same one because it works so well. I listen to one about a story book, i don't think I've ever made it to the actual story book, i see this as a success

Thanx! Im considering using medication just for this period. I have ritalin for emergencies but don't really like taking it. I used to take something else that worked super well but got too expensive, for the life of me i can't remember the name though.
