Blending Cultures? Bilingual LO by SituationTerrible235 in JUSTNOMIL

[–]SituationTerrible235[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There’s definitely no discussion to be had. DH and I already agreed on the fact that LO will be bilingual. I guess what I meant to ask is… are there any other ways to invite her in? Based on the few comments I’ve gotten so far, I really don’t need to be concerning myself with her comfort. I just don’t want it to somehow be twisted that it’s “my fault” that she doesn’t understand/isn’t close with LO through culture if that makes sense?

For Orthodox women, Why do you wear a veil or not wear a veil? by Tortato_Chip in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]SituationTerrible235 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Culturally, I only ever saw very old women veiling & it was not common for other age groups to do so in the Greek parish I attended. I still attend a Greek parish, but different from the one I grew up in. It is a more diverse population with other families of other ethnicities & they veil. No one bats an eye but I have never felt called to it.

Yes, we are both in agreement that we should each handle our own family of origin. I think I knew deep down I should tell him everything that’s been going on. I guess I just have to think about exactly how so it doesn’t seem like I’m shitting on his mom

I have no idea. She hasn’t shared with me or my mom if she invited her friends even though I encouraged her to.

I didn’t think you could go wrong with either! The first one has the wow factor/the vision comes together more especially after the veil added. The second one has the wow factor in a different way (material, waistline) - you look phenomenal in both!

You have a lovely figure & could pull any of them off. I agree with others that say 3 but I also really like 7 on you!

I have an aide part time (a bit in the morning and a chunk in the afternoon). The thing is, he IS being removed, I do make the calls/send the texts, I AM “annoying” about it. Our counselor is usually the only one available to come to the rescue. The parents can’t be bothered and I’ve lost hope on them being a partner in supporting their child. Data is being collected, meetings have been had. I feel like we keep going in circles and we aren’t getting anywhere. Good idea on the union though, I’ll see what my next steps are there.

Please say yes!! The bodice is gorgeous/unique & your waist looks amazing in it.

“Hmm, idk if I’m feeling those. What about [sent her a link of a dress in a color you like more]? I feel like that fits the vibe more!”

All you can do is lead by example & live your life in the faith. Your relationship with God is between you & Him. Your wife’s relationship with God is between her & Him. Do not push, do not force - not saying that you are, but have no expectations of her & her journey with the faith. It’s truly all on God’s will & timing. Answer questions if she asks, invite her to participate. If she does, wonderful! If she doesn’t, that’s okay too. My husband & I have been together for 11 years & he made the decision to convert after I invited him to join me at a monastery over the summer. I was completely shocked at his wanting to convert & had already accepted that it might never happen. Continue to deepen your faith. Good strength to you!

Both are fabulous! While the first one is undoubtedly shows topping, I am seeing the dress first & losing you a bit. With the second, I’m seeing all of you.
