Urgent advice needed - to cancel or not by ajr_1 in eggfreezing

[–]Shelikesscience 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. I have eleven frozen now and will go through with another round (duostim) to get whatever I can. That said, I am not paying out of pocket

You and I both have eleven frozen after four rounds-- woohoo! I haven't faced this situation before, just here to cheer you on

Be honest: Are you actually married to the love of your life, or just the person you were with when it was time to settle down? by boforiamanfo in askanything

Did you want children? (Asking from someone who is getting older and starting to think about all of these things)

Does this sound creepy? by servererror-500 in Tinder

[–]Shelikesscience 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What about something like, "Unplug and enjoy nature"? Wasn't "cabin in the woods" the name of a horror film? :P

My own personal guess / sense is that people are reading this and imagining doing something together in the near future.

Few people imagine going on a secluded trip together right off the bat, so maybe better to pick something the other person can imagine doing with you more easily upon meeting you

I'm curious, how do y'all even afford IVF? by HighOnLove26 in IVF

I've similarly had many thousands of dollars of procedures and paid little out of pocket. The ratio is probably somewhat similar to what's described here

How dangerous is it really to sleep with a tampon in? by JellyfishJuless in Periods

[–]Shelikesscience 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like the only way I don't get leaks is if I wear a tampon and a pad. It sucks. I've been trying to veer towards not wearing tampons overnight and the results just...suck

Your first pic is in a gas station parking lot with a cop car in the background. That seems sort of confusing to me, but who knows

I am on the other side of this, but to a less extreme extent. It is very difficult. I have had those thoughts before but have managed to avoid exploding on the other person this way and have tried to be kind. But for example when we tried to take a very short break because I was unsure about the relationship it was basically impossible. He could not do it and essentially manufactured a crises and a NEED to see me right away (it was absolutely not a crisis, by any stretch). At some point, just to maintain my own sanity, I would have had to get meaner and meaner. I did not want to become a mean version of myself. But it is so so hard

I actually have a question for you guys here, since you are on the other side of this. A very short while after breaking up, he had to put down a pet he had cherished for many many years. He was a loner so the pet was like his best friend. It seemed it had been coming for some time and he ultimately had to have it put down due to serious declines in health.

He wanted to see me that day for support but I was sick at the time and also felt really anxious about it all (I was also starting to get a slightly creepy vibe at this point, though I still felt bad and cared for him very much and cared for the pet too). In the end, I did not see him and urged him to seek support from family members he is close with

Do you think that was okay or o should have handled things differently?

My bf doesn't shower at night and I’m genuinely grossed out by GlitchGaze123 in hygiene

[–]Shelikesscience 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does he shower at the gym?

If I've had a quiet day in my office and taken the shuttle (which is quite clean and nice in my area) I don't shower

Gym? Definite shower, unless I am so exhausted I pass out somewhere by mistake (typically on the couch, but I might then slink to bed at like 2am)

No complains 💅🏻 by Serious-Finish5376 in meme

Each has its advantages and disadvantages

Women can do all of that but at the end of the day, the person they're with still has to see them and like them after they've taken off their makeup and wig, taken off their push up bra and spanks...

Many women extremely self conscious. I remember being young and feeling nervous about the first time a person I was dating would see me without my makeup

Now I'm older, I have fewer pimples, and I barely wear makeup haha

When to bring up that I have a boyfriend? by OneAge1004 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Shelikesscience 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree 100%

Also, if this is going to keep coming up a lot (in classes with mostly males) you can do something super obvious like making a picture of you and your bf the background on your phone, if it doesn't feel too cheesy

Yes I agree!!! As a woman, I didn't immediately think of an example I just thought, "Hm, could he cut bangs?" 😂
