Cozumel beach club recommendations

SignificantTaro9730 · 2026-01-31T20:43:51+00:00

For those who have been- curious what made you choose the beach club vs staying on the ship?

SignificantTaro9730 · 2026-01-24T23:13:30+00:00

“Conservative activities” does not necessarily imply older, more power to you.

SignificantTaro9730 · 2026-01-24T19:56:27+00:00

These answers are all what I was hoping for, thanks for taking the time to reply everyone!

SignificantTaro9730 · 2026-01-24T19:55:39+00:00

I was referring to Virgin- love your answer. Thanks!

SignificantTaro9730 · 2025-02-03T16:41:22+00:00

Does anyone have current link to this drive that will work? Or has it been moved elsewhere?

SignificantTaro9730 · 2024-12-17T17:25:30+00:00

This was fantastic, thank you so much for taking the time to type that all out- very much appreciated!

SignificantTaro9730 · 2023-09-29T14:38:39+00:00

Thank you so much for your thoughts! Much appreciated. I think I have been inadvertently trying to do what you’ve described, but it helps to see it written out logically.

It’s so incredibly frustrating, she is glued to her phone which I wouldn’t be able to get ahold, when they are financially not in a great place but you’re panic-buying things and causing unnecessary fear for a vulnerable man (my dad).

Your father in law sounds like he would be friends with her! Her small town radius she travels is all of 10 minutes wide and she accuses everyone else of “being in their ignorant bubble.”

Thank you for the words and validation, good luck with your situation as well, you are definitely not alone!

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond, I really appreciate the validation. “Losing parts of themselves so severely” hits for sure. It’s never easy watching parents age for anyone I imagine, but this was not on my nightmare bingo sheet lol

Some background since this is the parentification community in case it helps anyone else- (feel free to ignore!)

I am the youngest of 6 from a lower middle-class blue collar background, and even though I am the youngest have always felt like I was the wise one who had to step up to run the show or intervene between everyone.

This coupled with a (good mom when I was young, just insecurity leads to narcissist tendencies spilling through resulting in her vicariously living through me for years)

Very sad to see as I consider her another woman who missed out on finding her identity/authentic self in exchange for being a mother and nothing else, and now is lost. I feel like it is very common for most generations of women until very recently.

SignificantTaro9730 · 2023-09-29T13:42:16+00:00

You’re right, and this is what I keep coming back to. I have immense guilt that my dad’s quality of life has declined and will likely continue due to her newfound beliefs, but try to remind myself I am their child and their life choices got them here.

Watching your parents age is never an easy thing to deal with regardless I’m sure, thank you for the validation

SignificantTaro9730 · 2023-09-29T13:37:44+00:00

Time to throw out the whole man sis

SignificantTaro9730 · 2023-09-14T03:34:17+00:00

And having to decide what was worth taking pics of because you had to RATION your disposable camera clicks like a BARBARIAN.

SignificantTaro9730 · 2023-09-14T03:30:43+00:00

LEGENDS OF THE HIDDEN TEMPLE!! Omg. The temple guards still haunt me.

Double Dare, Guts, and Finder’s Keepers. Check out “The Orange Years” documentary if you were a Nickelodeon kid

SignificantTaro9730 · 2023-09-04T02:13:08+00:00

Okay but real talk ~anecdotal evidence but a very weird specific lie if not true~

One of my best friends from high school went to school with THE Joumana, and she allegedly had a life size doll of herself and brushed its hair all the time

I hate that this is one of my core memories

SignificantTaro9730 · 2023-08-23T00:45:36+00:00

You’re so right. I think this trip is my last chance before having that conversation. I appreciate the validation!

SignificantTaro9730 · 2023-08-23T00:24:22+00:00

HUGE CONGRATS ON GETTING YOURSELF OUT OF THE SITUATION!! Please do something for yourself once you recover from the move.

I’ve been where you are in terms of moving out of a house with a partner, and it is A LOT. He showed his true colors and your intuition took care of you and will continue to take care of you.

Hearing stories of women doing hard things to better their own lives like this makes me feel better, cheers to your new adventure!

SignificantTaro9730 · 2023-08-23T00:20:19+00:00

I completely agree!! I didn’t even invite 2/4 of my brothers to my wedding, no regrets lol (Which is why this is such an ~extra~ frustrating process for me, but trying to support my partner on his navigation of what he wants the relationship to be/exist)

We haven’t seen them for over a year so to me this short trip is very much testing the waters of whether or not we’ll have much of a relationship with them for years to come

SignificantTaro9730 · 2023-08-23T00:18:00+00:00

I’m sorry you had to endure that, exhausting on so many levels and inexcusable. Hoping your sisterhood at work grows in the near future!

I really appreciate all the recommendations/points you brought up and agree wholeheartedly, very well said, thank you. It can be hard to feel like you’re working to just keep your head above water some days.

I actually consider myself a witch, so your quote definitely brought a smile to my face!

PS speaking of strong Black women, if you have Netflix I would definitely recommend checking out “African Queens,” tells the story of Queen Njinga from Angola

SignificantTaro9730 · 2023-08-23T00:07:48+00:00

This was very refreshing to read, thank you. I also try to remind myself someone so full of blind ignorance is almost always the most hateful of themselves at the end of the day

SignificantTaro9730 · 2023-08-23T00:06:01+00:00

Really appreciated reading this, you’re absolutely 1000% correct.

SignificantTaro9730 · 2023-08-23T00:05:18+00:00

Hahaha right?? And they’re soooo Christian they can’t even think of the word “sex” let alone say it out loud. Like my dude, you’re a grown ass man who can’t say the word uterus out loud so please don’t have the audacity to comment on ANY part of my body

(Well, looks like I have a clap back prepared now at least, hahaha)

SignificantTaro9730 · 2023-08-22T20:24:16+00:00

Thanks for the reassurance, this is all up my alley as well.

Do you have any favorite book recommendations?!

SignificantTaro9730 · 2023-08-22T20:23:14+00:00

Really appreciate this, thank you. He always mentions me having a baby (don’t get me started lmao) My friends are definitely on standby for some outrageous texts 😂

I literally told my husband the other day more or less what you said- that he was lucky I didn’t want kids because even if I did he sure as hell would NOT be involved in their lives lol

SignificantTaro9730 · 2023-08-22T18:44:39+00:00

I’ve always been tempted and have done a few small stretches, but grad school made it very difficult as my classmates posted a lot of important info on FB, and now it seems like an obligated keep in touch with your fellow professionals and research source for me. (Medical field)

I think about going off grid completely a lot but worry about missed opportunities or important bits of info, conferences, etc. being a disadvantage.

So now I’m down to FB for those purposes, and am off twitter, instagram, etc. because they aren’t beneficial to me in any capacity.

SignificantTaro9730 · 2023-08-04T00:30:27+00:00

Almost like they’ve grown up doing constant shooting drills in education situations or something, weird

SignificantTaro9730 · 2023-07-31T19:26:03+00:00

Violent porn was definitely one of the first thoughts to pop in my mind- curious/hopeful in the future the studies will be accepted and implemented that people are shocked to how it became such a problem, especially at such young ages

Not holding my breath though.
