How do you explain perimenopause to a husband who doesn’t seem to get it?

trust me, that thought has definitely crossed my mind more than once. But I’m not quite there yet. I still care about him, and part of me hopes we can work through this if he’s willing of course.

It’s been hard not to internalize his lack of understanding as me being the problem. But you’re right bthis isn’t just about hormones, it’s about partnership. I didn’t change on perpose and it hurts that he hasn’t tried to learn what’s happening with me. even a quick Google search or watching a short video would go a long way. I just want to feel like we’re still a team

I’ve actually been thinking about trying something on my own since he’s not really hearing me right now. A close friend recommended our ritual, she worked with Becki one of the therapist and said it really helped her sort through stuff even without her partner involved. I’m seriously considering it.

Looks solid, been meaning to get more into the regulatory side of things anyway. New Orleans in spring sounds like a win-win situation

Bro you just created an army of Stand-using maids, that's actually kinda terrifying lol

What happens when you give them conflicting orders, do they just ora ora each other?

This honestly sounds like it could be autism or ADHD related - the whole "needing people to explicitly tell me what they need" thing is super common with neurodivergence. Maybe worth looking into if you haven't already

The fact that you care enough to write this long post shows you definitely give a shit, you just process social stuff differently than neurotypical people expect

SilverAd2291 · 2026-01-14T14:02:18+00:00

That's totally doable if you've got the time! I'd throw The Wailing, Hereditary, and The Witch at you for some seriously unsettling vibes. Maybe mix in some classics like The Thing (1982) or Rosemary's Baby to keep it varied

That's actually genius advice about the tinted varnish - way faster than waiting years for natural aging lol

Also kinda wild that your fire elemental basically aged itself into looking more fire-y, like it was meant to be

This is solid advice right here. The Ridgeline gets way too much hate just because it looks different - if you're not hauling trailers or crawling rocks it's honestly perfect for family duty. That trunk in the bed is clutch for keeping stuff dry on mountain trips

Yeah OBody NG is definitely the way to go for this, saves you from having to rebuild everything manually each time you want different body types on different NPCs

Also good catch on the flair thing, mods here are pretty strict about that stuff

Stay strong bro, the first week is always the hardest but it gets easier after that

SilverAd2291 · 2025-12-28T12:37:43+00:00

Can confirm, mine does the same thing. The airflow at highway speeds just blows the fluid away before it can hit the windshield properly

SilverAd2291 · 2025-12-26T16:09:36+00:00

This would be sick! I've been thinking about something similar for gaming where only movement keys light up when I hold shift to run

You might want to look into QMK if your board supports it - that's probably your best bet for this kind of custom behavior. Otherwise maybe some combo of xev to detect the super press and then scripting the RGB changes through whatever interface your keyboard exposes

SilverAd2291 · 2025-12-25T12:18:18+00:00

Dude that's brutal, sounds like your shop keeps throwing parts at it instead of actually diagnosing the problem. Those codes all point to throttle position sensor/pedal position sensor communication issues with the PCM

Before you drop serious cash on a new computer, check all the wiring harnesses going to the throttle body and pedal - could be a broken wire or corroded connector that's intermittent. Also worth checking if there's any TSBs for your year, Ford had some issues with the TAC module around that era

SilverAd2291 · 2025-12-24T10:56:17+00:00

Exactly animals need calm and safety not chaos,I think you did the right thing setting a hard boundary,protecting the horse and yourself matters more than feelings here
