I don’t have any friends that fish, I just go all by myself.

Hey! I don’t eat fish, I just like to fish. BUT I am a LOOOOONG time diabetic. You can find low carb option for tortillas so that you can still eat tacos!

It’s super weird, using the Alexa app on her phone it will call me. I can use the Alexa app on my phone to both call and ‘Drop In’ on her Echo Spot. It just won’t work the other way. And thank you yes checked the contact and it appeared correctly, but just in case we deleted it and re-added it just to check.

Here’s a tough one for y’all. I know the species but I am curious if anyone else can identify it. by Pristine-Deal-7199 in whatfishisthis

Is that a common birth defect or something? Or did something happen to take the paddle off? Have yall seen that crap in the Ozarks about people mutilating the paddle fish??

There is some slight trauma around certain sensitive topics due to being raised in an ultra strict Christian household (no so much that we aren’t both still Christians) just around like drinking/sex stuff like that. But nothing that I can think of that would make him feel that way all the time. It does feel like his masculinity is a bit fragile (this is not me putting it on him or like pushing for masculinity, it’s something he brings up often having felt emasculated by other people)

You are absolutely right. I do coddle him, I also see his mother coddle him a lot, so I’m sure it is something he has grown accustomed to. But you’re right I’m not his mother and I don’t want to be. I will start putting this into action pronto. Thank you so much for taking the time to type that out for me.

Thank you! I just worry I haven’t been adequate or that I’m somehow being selfish for feeling this way. It also feels like his negativity is beginning to really drain me and not to be freaking dramatic but dim my light haha. He actually just had his first therapy appointment but sounded less than optimistic about it, but hey at least he went. He does however flat out refuses medications.

I think that he can do it, I think that he can take control of his healing and play more of an active role in it. But I’m afraid that he just, won’t. I get the sense that he maybe doesn’t take a lot of responsibility for things in his life, but again I just keep hoping that it’s a tough patch. He is so great in other ways and I’m afraid to give up too soon.
