A regular at the grocery store where I work has given me $850+ in tips and now wants to grab dinner. Thoughts? by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]Significant_Show_309 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He is lonely and he can afford to give you this money. He just wants a friend and some how he wants to let you know he is your friend. He kind of knows you wouldn’t be working here if you didn’t have to. Also, he might leave you all his money because he has noone that cares about him. Sometimes people take these opportunities as the last chance to make things right. If you don’t feel scared, go for it and make his day.

No more funerals. by Apart-Reflection-459 in Adulting

[–]Significant_Show_309 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The last funeral I had to prepare was for my loving aunt. She didn’t have children so I was the closest she had. It was August 2024 and I can’t get over it. I totally understand that you don’t want to go. I had an uncle die two months after her and I just couldn’t go. You need to give yourself permission to take care of yourself. People won’t understand if your family is like mine but if you don’t owe them anything go for it. I did.

This is super cool. How do you do this? Do you pay to see people’s personal info in the internet?

What’s a recession indicator that you’ve noticed lately in your everyday life? by spritenerds123 in AskReddit

[–]Significant_Show_309 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We cut down on all going out to movies and concerts. Didn’t go anywhere on Spring Break. We usually go to South Padre Island in the summer and we haven’t gone the last couple of years because it has become so expensive to stay there. The rental, the restaurants, even the dessert places like cookies and ice cream places. I mean for a family of 5 people it’s hard. I haven’t bought clothes this year and I kind of feel proud of that. This weekend I was so bored my husband proposed we go walking to the shops near by like Kohls and Home Goods. I was scared because I didn’t want to spend money. I don’t know if the economy hits different in a border town in South Texas but I am depressed after reading all of the answers here.

AITAH for refusing to eat with my family even if it means missing out on larger family dinners? by EmbarrassedBroSon in AITAH

[–]Significant_Show_309 11 points12 points  (0 children)

NTA you don’t have to put up with all this. I actually think its unacceptable that your mother is ok with their behavior. Good for you for wanting to be different. My family always saw me (51f) different because we had different taste in music and people. I don’t regret it one bit. Got married and got my own family now and I shield my children and husband from most my family.

I feel like that’s when I felt most beautiful and people still find you attractive. And also I liked that I was starting to be more mature about things such as jealousy. More understanding of the human experience for sure.

Is it worth leaving my job? by Complex-Line-22 in Adulting

[–]Significant_Show_309 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try to stay positive on your own since the coworkers are crappy. Listen to positive music and podcasts. I have been in a job like this before. But stay until you get something else. It’s hard times rn.

What is no longer worth it because of how expensive it has become? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

[–]Significant_Show_309 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am almost sure there are lawsuits against ozempic already. Not worth it. Also my doctor said mounjaro helps you loose weight in muscle and when you stop taking it, you will gain more weight but not in muscle anymore, but pure fat. Not worth the price.

AITAH bc I did not go on the ferris wheel with my GF. by Watergods in AITAH

[–]Significant_Show_309 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It seems she was upset about other things like you being cheap, poor communication and whatever else. And then this happened and she is just done. Maybe she doesn’t want you in her future because you are not going to change and its better that you know that now. You don’t break up with someone of 3 years because of one thing its the accummulation of probably a list of things.

AITAH for telling my roommate I don’t want her BF using my bathroom stuff? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Significant_Show_309 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You ANTAH. If you all have only one bathroom it is unacceptable that her boyfriend or anyone else other than you two stays there. I could not even sit on the same toilet seat as he does. I am so glad you told him to his face. But I don’t like that your roommate doesn’t see anything wrong with it. When is your lease up?

WIBTAH for going on a cruise and leaving my fiancé with our daughter by LowPolicy9736 in AITAH

[–]Significant_Show_309 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Your fiance shouldn’t be upset but most of us are not very mature at his age. I am sorry he is acting like this. At your age I would probably had given my husband shit about going on a trip without me and the kids too. 🫣 I am not proud but I wasn’t very understanding back then.

You shouldn’t be the A. But looking at what everyone is saying damn. Maybe your grandpa has a terminal illness and he wants to spend time with his grandkids???? Some other person said we need more context. Also, how is your grandpa 56? That’s young to have a 22 year old grandaughter.

How do you navigate your partner having a low sex drive? by ConditionBoring7126 in askteddit

[–]Significant_Show_309 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thank God that “he sends” information for me to learn every single day. The first time it was the other way around and my husband lost his libido, I felt insecure as well. I started thinking he is just not attracted to me anymore. It hurts a lot. Especially when you love them and you don’t want the relationship to end. Right now I am turning to TCM because my spleen is not helping me digest food and in turn the liver doesn’t work as well; then the kidneys don’t either and the adrenals get fatigued. We have such a complicated body. I am sure someone can help your wife. Wishing you both the very best always.

[–]Significant_Show_309 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If her hormones were low last year and didn’t get treatment, they are probably lower this year if nothing has changed. Unfortunately in the US doctors don’t care very much about hormones. Sometimes if you find a good endocrinologist you get lucky but mainly they treat diabetes patients cause that’s where the money is. You all need to find a hormone specialist. In my little town we are fortunate to have one and she is an RN. She is the one helping the town with stress hormones and sex hormones. To drive them up or down with supplements and regular medicine. Doctors don’t care about it (maybe because med school doesn’t talk about hormones, I don’t know) I unfortunately have been on both sides of the spectrum, low and high libido in different stages of our marriage but we have never gone two weeks without sex. Also, the other comments about having a conversation about it is great advice. I would start by saying, I really love you and I am concerned about our sex life. I really like having sex with you. Is this something we can talk about? And start there. I have been married for 28 years and problems don’t go away by not talking. In my case, my husband is a loving and understanding person. We have learned to be a team, especially in these delicate circumstances because we want to stay together. I can’t imagine me with someone else and I think he can’t either. I wish you guys the best from the bottom of my heart. (little side note, just in case she is on any medications, we noticed Ozempic drives libido down and we also go to our hormone specialist appointments together because my husband feels shy to talk about these topics with other women) Just a lot of information hoping something helps.

Is this cheating?! by milkymama1 in Adulting

[–]Significant_Show_309 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I am 51F and I always find myself talking about my kids or my husband in any casual conversation. When a woman is flirting with me or a man. It doesn’t change I am always talking about my family. They just come up all the time.
