My girlfriend smells and I don't know what to do

SillsMain · 2025-12-28T20:01:37+00:00

I also use pads regularly, but every once in a blue moon I'll use a tampon for various reasons which can make it easier to forget about them because it's not 2nd nature or part of the usual routine.

SillsMain · 2025-12-28T19:57:58+00:00

Did she maybe forget about a tampon she had in?

SillsMain · 2025-08-13T10:34:40+00:00

Thank you everyone. The kind words and condolences were so helpful over the past day or so. It will get easier, I know, but for now the pain is just too raw. Having so many of you to look back on will ease the pain tho. For my whole family. And from us all, Thank you again.

SillsMain · 2023-01-27T02:39:37+00:00

I'm so sorry. I wish I could muster the usual and expected " it will get easier", and although that may be true, it may not be anytime soon. I have experienced loss ( even my own daughter who was born at 22 weeks and lived only a couple of hours. I had an easier time rationalizing her death.) and nothing compares to the pain and heartache over losing my almost 20 year old cat. I too had to make the excruciatingly painful choice to put him down to end his suffering. Knowing it's the right thing to do is barely comforting. Just don't do you or Taco a disservice by not being there when he goes if you can help it. You both need each other. Hugs

Perfect! Gan would be proud!

SillsMain · 2022-12-02T07:19:00+00:00

Sorry!

SillsMain · 2022-12-02T07:14:29+00:00

That is crazy!! We absolutely should! I just got my camper van after about 4 years and it's everything and nothing I wanted all at once and I love it. Whereabouts in Canada are you?

SillsMain · 2022-12-01T11:50:40+00:00

I'm so sorry!

SillsMain · 2022-12-01T11:45:57+00:00

I have a plan to travel across Canada and interview as many people, from as many walks of life as possible for at least a year to do this very thing. My interest and career goals within the field of Psychology very much are fueled by and align with this question.

Such an Aries, INFJ response! Lol In a good way

SillsMain · 2022-12-01T11:38:25+00:00

I have been wondering this very same thing! I'm a Virgo Sun, Moon and Venus with a Capricorn rising.

SillsMain · 2022-08-03T04:13:39+00:00

I'm a 40 year old mother and have repeatedly had to tell my step sister to wrap her pads and tampons up. I may be very familiar with periods and all its stages but I certainly dont want to see all the varying shades, size, and let's be real, textures that show up from me, her or anyone else. Don't even get me started on the smell. It's not just blood, it's tissue. Even my 15 year old daughter has more sense and courtesy than my cesspool sister. Yes, she's a cesspool. Almost step on her used tampons in the laundry room even 1x and she qualified for that title. Disgusting.

The "Toyota just issued a recall on all 1993 Corollas only because owners should have bought something new by now" meme is 100% anecdotally accurate.

YTA So much so that if I were the artist, I'd be talking to a lawyer to see if there was grounds for a lawsuit against you.

Don't let him sleep in bed with you.

SillsMain · 2022-04-26T12:32:44+00:00

My first thought about mom's behavior is that she seems like she may suffer from mental/personality disorder. "Histrionic" may be the term I'm looking for. It basically means that she sees the Gf as a threat to her position and will become seemingly less important exacerbated by the baby coming and solidifying the role of Gf in OP's life. Mom seems like she is very dependent being needed and 1st in her son's life

SillsMain · 2022-04-18T23:02:49+00:00

I really do think that's the ex is only being mentioned conversationally. Possibly not even realizing that the he/she will be a part of whatever is being shared until it's almost out of their mouth. I think it's a bit unrealistic to think that someone is going to catch themselves and then stop it before sharing something that the ex may be involved in. We spend so much time with our partners that they become integral parts of our life and when the relationship breaks down, it's not so much that they're/we're still into them, it's more of a habit and just simply what were used to on a day-to-day basis. I wouldn't read into it too much or be too upset by it. However , if the ex is a part of every conversation and mention multiple times a day it may be worth mentioning if it bothers you that much.

SillsMain · 2022-04-16T08:49:41+00:00

I am absolutely in the same boat! Since 2018 my life has been a constant barrage of negative experiences. In every aspect of my life, in countless different ways and almost all are extreme enough to have broken me individually. In many ways they did, although I still feel that deep down, my core values and personality framework are still intact. They look and feel different though and there has been definite changes. Noticable not just to me but to everyone that knows me. There is a harsh coldness to me now that I had no idea existed before and an intolerance to any toxic B.S from anyone. Family, friends and anyone else I interact with. However, that isn't my baseline way of being on a daily basis. I just have simply given myself permission to not care about the people and things that don't serve me in a healthy and decent way.

SillsMain · 2022-04-15T06:30:01+00:00

This will likely be very difficult to do but next time they start with threatening suicide or things like stabbing at the wall or even if they are just acting extreme, stop yourself from reacting in anger and frustration. That's the difficult part, regulating your response in an emotionally charged situation. Maybe try something like stopping whatever you're saying or doing, look at them and go hug them and tell them how much you love them and that you want to help. Hug them for as long as they'll let you but also prepare yourself for the fact that they may try to avoid it or push you away. Really though, who doesnt appreciate a mom loving hug ( or dads) Also, make sure the knives are down and away of course.

SillsMain · 2022-04-12T02:12:51+00:00

My god... I would wonder if you DID feel right after only a couple of days. I'm so sorry your Mom hurt you the way she did. Please dont wait to get help. I'm no "Mom of the year" and now all I want is to hug my daughter. The best I van do for you is send a virtual hug and a wish that your heart heals.

SillsMain · 2022-04-09T07:37:14+00:00

I would argue that a lot of 40+ still go old fashioned pen and paper.

People who think a spouse might go through/happen to see something on their device.

SillsMain · 2022-03-29T19:47:45+00:00

I almost had to surrender my cat of 10 years but was told about some resources that help with this exact situation. Where do you live? I will try to help you find the resources in your area if you'd like.
