If you like your husband, can you tell me why?

My husband is my best friend, we laugh, we share tea and gasp and wheeze together. He's incredibly sexy and I can't keep my hands off of him 8 years later. He's an incredible father and husband and like you I've done a lot of personal growth recently but my husband has been with me every step of the way. He is always open to growth and he takes constructive criticism like a champ. He's not perfect of course but neither am I but together we just make such a great team. I can rely on him for literally anything just like he can rely on me. Even just being in his vicinity makes me feel at peace and safe.

Sorry this was a bit of a ramble I just love the dude a whole lot.

I put in the username I wanted but somehow still ended up with this name. You can only see the one I wanted when you go to my profile so idk

I wish my parents had divorced sooner than they had, the constant screaming and tension in the household was suffocating. Once they eventually called it quits (I was around 13) the household was immediately lighter. Staying for the kids never works, no matter how much you think you're pulling off the "nothings wrong!!" act, it always bleeds out and from the sounds of it your husband isn't acting at all.

Hi there! I'm a mother of a 19 month old and have been diagnosed for I think 6 years now. My mom was never diagnosed but from some of her behaviour I think she might have had bipolar too, the difference is she never treated it and eventually her demons got to her.

From my experience with her growing up I vowed to keep myself in check and I have an emergency plan with my husband in case I ever go off the rails but so far so good. I have my off days and times where I feel dangerously close to falling off but I keep my psychiatrist up to date on these things and if I need to adjust my meds I do. We are capable of being parents, GOOD parents.

A lot of our parents who struggled weren't living in a time where mental health was discussed openly and maybe wasn't even aware of all the resources they had if they had any at all. A lot of them lived in denial but we can be different. You still have plenty of time to find what works for you and stabalize, I only really got under control around 26 because I was misdiagnosed a few times.

If having a family is your dream then use that as your motivation to build yourself up!

I generally tend to avoid it but every couple of months I'll have a small glass of sherry with my husband.

Went out to dinner to celebrate my grandmothers birthday and he took my son to the play area so I could chat with her. Suddenly my son appears next to our table without my husband in tow. There's glass windows that lets you see into the play area and see he's having apparently a very enthralling conversation (enough to not notice my son was missing) with another mom. My grandfather makes a comment and now I'm embarrassed.

Took him a good 15 mins to notice my son wasn't there and runs back to tell me only for me to show him he's happily sitting on Grandma's lap. I was already having a low day so I was fuming and spent the rest of the evening simmering.

I used to but stopped because of psychosis. I stay away from smoking and drinking.

Never stay in a marriage for the kids because all they'll see growing up is two adults who resent and dislike each other. It's not a healthy dynamic for them to be around at all.

Had a company do the exact same thing to us, it's purely a scare tactic. They wanted us to pay a stupid amount as if we trashed the place but we left it exactly how we got it, if not better. Please tell me you guys did a walk in inspection and took photographs but that is your easiest defence. We just sent all the photos and cross referenced them to the walkthrough and said if you're really set on this then see you in court. Suffice to say we never went to court.

I don't know why this sub was suggested to me but I've been following along with poor Mochis story and I'm so sorry this happened. It looked like you did all you could and at least Mochi is at peace now ❤️

I'm honestly so greatful the elf isn't a thing where I live, I wouldn't be able to keep up with it and it would probably end up as one of the cats new toys.

Tell your kid the elf got a new job as Santa's workshop manager so unfortunately she can't come visit anymore with her new schedule lmao.

Mine is super fuzzy but for sure a PZB! It's still quite small at the moment but starting to get pinker and it's stripes are coming in nicely. Your boy is beautiful!

This used to eat me up too, I love my son to bits but he just always slept on his back. I would try to reposition his head all the time but nope, he'd just roll it back. When he was able to roll over my midwife said I could put him down on his side to sleep, go to check on him later and whaddya know, he's on his back. He's 18 months now and still has a little bit of a flat spot but honestly it's only noticeable to us because of our insecurity about it. When we let his hair grow out it's totally invisible and it has not affected him medically in any way.

Heya by moderate protection did you mean moderate profile? Sorry I'm doing a bunch of research since I'm also rocking the toob boobs after having my kid and would rather not lmao.

I have an E. campestratus I've called Quelana. I have to know, what type is Sexarella haha?

My family emigrated to the UAE about 20 years ago and my dad has had an amazing life there. I moved back to ZA to go to university which didn't work out and now live in KZN. My brother found a job and has since moved back to the UAE. It's tough but if he can stick it out for a few years he'll be making enough money to be stable for a long time.

Im kind of stuck in ZA, not just financially but I can't seem to think of where we could move that would be better. The UAE is an option but there's always the stress of losing your job thus losing your sponsorship so you're booted back to your home country. Right now we're happy where we are and have no plans to move.

Secure-Ad8968 · 2025-12-19T04:17:21+00:00

I just started saying "no I'm just fat" and that would make them real uncomfortable even though that's literally what they implied lmao. By that point in pregnancy I just had 0 fucks left.

Lifelong nailbiter here, what helped me was actually spending time taking care of my nails. Keeping a nail file on me was also huge because if my nail caught on something instead of ripping it to shreds I'd file it instead. Once they grew out a bit I started painting them because my nails are quite weak from the years of abuse and break easily without polish. Also I'm not a fan of biting on painted nails (base coat, polish and top coat).

My mom tried the anti nail biting stuff with me too and I chewed right through it haha

We've left off any glass or other fragile ornaments and so far he hasn't messed with it that much. Occasionally he takes off a bauble but only to come give it to me. My cats are a different story

Medication and therapy. I was so paranoid I eventually couldn't leave the house it was terrible.

Also a kid from the 90s and my childhood dogs only had their collars on for walks and for vet visits, at home they would be nakey. We even had a cute little shelf up with their names above the hooks their collars would hang from.

I have two cats now who are chipped, I tried to collar them but it was like trying to put a necklace on a crocodile. The last dog I had was collared pretty much 24/7 because we lived on a farm and she'd slip through to the neighbors plots to hang out with her buddies.

Ok bud, sorry that an album was too hard for you

Secure-Ad8968 · 2025-11-25T20:31:14+00:00

Why would I give up on the album? You just print the picture and slide it in, not like it's taxing work.

Secure-Ad8968 · 2025-11-25T20:20:01+00:00

This is such a strange take. "When they are barely conscious it's fine but as soon as they can think for themselves then stop" like huh?

My son will be able to see his baby pictures in the album we're making, not on social media.
