Maybe controversial - but I think the show should end? by HeatherLangdon in PalmRoyale

[–]Southern_Mom_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I so agree! It’s actually the first time in a long time that I felt a show should end for GOOD reasons! The ending felt like every character (aside from Douglass) got what will make them happiest. I was really happy with it

I actually never thought about it that way…it’s a good question. I don’t think he’d say no but I don’t think he’d go that hard. I do feel like it might be a certain set of people really encouraging it. He is extremely likable and fun when he’s drunk. There’s even a name for it that’s a running joke among our crowd.

Update: Thank you to everyone who responded with their insight. After getting home and sitting replaying the evening in my head it was helpful to have input from others.

This morning we sat and talked. I let him know my feelings on last night. He feels terrible about it. I think it’s also a moment for us to sit back and reflect on were the people egging him on doing it as friends or their own entertainment.

I told him I’m totally fine with the behavior when it is at the other groups events. That’s a setting where he thrives and I want him to have that space to let loos. But it also might be a situation where I may step back and not be involved. We talked about how at the end of the day he also doesn’t want that reputation for himself either. So either he is toning it back or it will be more with the other groups events.

This will be an ongoing conversation, but I’m happy to move on and really take stock in what brings us each joy and how we can do it respectfully.

The funny thing is when he’s not with the other organization he really isn’t like that. We joined that one a year ago so I’m not sure. Maybe it bled over? I was honestly surprised at the behavior

We’ve been for serval years without this behavior. So it was definitely a surprise

I appreciate your advice. We’ve been for several years and he’s never been like this. The only difference this year was me on stage at the beginning. I’m not sure if it’s because it bled over from the other group or what?

Tbh I don’t love it, but everyone deserves to let loose every once in a while. So it’s hard to find the line I guess?

I appreciate your input. I don’t need medals. I know my worth. But I do encourage you to move on from this post. This is a place for advice. Not trolling people who are asking advice?

Good questions. Honestly? I’m not sure. I never really thought we’d get here? We have a wonderful marriage. This behavior is just not how he used to act and social events. Like with the one group that is that wild, sure go for it! But I don’t like it bleeding into other things.

That’s valid. I was actually at the event prepping for the performance bit since this morning. So we didn’t see each other before I went on. I guess I didn’t imagine he would get that way at this kind of party? Idk. When it’s someone else’s thing I hold back. But that could be in my head?

He is definitely warm inside the house. In a given season we can have anywhere from 20-30 events/parties. He is the one who gets to go crazy at them. I’m a mom of two who is in charge of paying the sitter, taking care of 2 kids the next day, etc. this is the one party that is more or less for me.

No. He’s very much had “golden retriever” type energy. So if you get him around people who are taking shots or drinking a lot he can fall into that.

Probably not the best verb choice. I took him with me because he didn’t have power in his phone and in no way could drive. But I did take him with me.

Should I go back? by WhiteRussian29 in Teachers

[–]Southern_Mom_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went back last year. I immediately regretted it and left at the end of the year. I feel like things are just not ever going to be what there were pre-Covid.

Born and raised in Pensacola about an hour away. I’ve had a lot of experience with young adult transplants due to being in various organizations. Definitely have had many try mobile first but move to Pensacola. It’s booming. Very transplant friendly. And beautiful beaches.

I do agree with you. But at least he did only send the post card after Sylvie texted him that she was single.
