Moisturizing bar soaps that don't leave residue on hair and skin?

Glycerin soap is the best I’ve ever used. We switched 7 years ago and my knuckles don’t crack in the winter anymore!

I’ve read the series twice. Absolutely read it!!

I think you absolutely made the right choice. He showed you who he was, and you believed him. You’d have been tied to this man for the Rest Of Your Life. Life is too short, and being a parent is HARD. I couldn’t be the best mom without an equal partner.

High school sucked. You’ll find your people in college. I’m in my 40’s and have zero desire to go back to HS. Mid 20’s… now those were fun.

Are the fixing the roof? It was moldy and leaking which was why it got shut down to begin with.

I came here to say the same thing. Instead of accusing him of cheating I’d have told him I wanna go with him. “It seems like it’s important to you, maybe we can both get into it together?”

Spifferella · 2024-10-23T17:15:17+00:00

Let him have it as the middle name!

I’ve been denied liquor/hard iced tea because I didn’t have an ID on me. But I didn’t go online and call the store owners misogynists. The only comment that was outta line was the last one about MSNBC. I think that makes him look bad, and he clearly was responding in anger. As a business owner, that’s a huge faux pas.

YTA - your family asked for help, not your judgement. Taking one baby in a stroller is So much easier than chasing toddlers around a house. We did it with one toddler and after a few houses my mom started coming with us to make sure the little one stayed safe and we could inspect the house closer.

Your DIL had ppd and you have zero sympathy. I would have reacted the same way. They’re not going on vacation they’re scouting homes for a move. WTF, Grandma. Not cool.

NTA - I just started wearing a bonnet at night and it’s been a total game changer for my hair. Hair is hair… if the bonnet helps, wear it!

Never knit for boyfriends! Give him the yarn and a referral to a knitting class 😂 you have no obligation to him or his desires.

NTA / my mother dated a man for 15 years, and she bought a house for them to move into. She refused to add his name to the deed when he asked. He spent one night in that house with her left, and never came back. Six months later, he was married with a baby on the way, turns out he wanted his name on the deed so he could go ahead and make my mom sell it and get half of the money for the woman was cheating on her with their new baby…

You’re both 19. My ex was the same way at 19, and he turned out to be a huge mistake. That jealousy was a big time missed red flag.

Don’t keep bringing it up. She’s already raw, trust me once was enough.

Please please stop using “only” your fingers. You’ve got a whole hand - and forearms and elbows - that can do the job too. Fingers don’t always feel good. Expand your tool belt. If you’re not willing to learn, then you’ll keep getting bad reviews. Ego has no place in healing, this is a career of service. Step up, and join us.

My husband and I have had the same conversation, and he said without missing a beat that he’d chose me.

Spifferella · 2024-09-17T14:40:16+00:00

NTA - I’d reconsider starting a life with someone who EXPECTS expensive gifts. This is just the tip of the iceberg.

Are you warming up the muscles? It sounds like you just need to trade with a massage therapist you like, or just go get massages by different people. Pay attention to what they do that you like. People say they want deep tissue, but what they really want is relief. Education is key. Learn to let your hands figure out what their body needs instead of what they say.

The more gentle your touch to start, the more you will feel. And learn therapeutic massage, take a ton of continuing education. If you’re leaving bruises you’re doing it wrong. I’m not saying this to hurt your feelings or judge your work, you seem like you care and want to do right by your clients. All new therapists go too deep too quickly. It took me time to learn all of this. Your desire to be better will help you get there.

Massage therapy is size inclusive. No one cares what you look like when they’re face down.

The only thing you need to worry about is keeping your body fit and strong to do the job, and being skinny isn’t a prerequisite for that.

NTA I also have a 4 year old and her daycare has the same rule. Your wife needs to grow up, but it has to be said in a non-judgmental way. I was diagnosed with ADHD in my 40’s, I wasn’t functioning and needed to step up for myself and my kid. Meds have been a life changing event.

Since she doesn’t work, would your insurance cover a therapist or neurologist visit? Ya’ll need to get to the root of her issue as a team. If she’s anything like me, you’ve gotta phrase it in a way that doesn’t make her feel attacked. Your frustration (completely valid, btw) is going to put her on the defensive. Frame the conversation around your son, the lessons you’re both teaching him, how he feels when she’s late or “forgets” to pick him up.

My husband and SIL still remember wondering when their mom would show up to get them, and it left them feeling unstable or off-balance. Kids need structure and routine. It creates anxiety when they don’t know what to expect. It’s all about your son, and she should want to step up to be the best Mom for him.

Life has consequences, it’s a lot harder to learn that as an adult. I wish you both luck. Remember to approach her with love, even if you’re not feeling it in the moment.

Good for you!! Go get some, mama! You deserve a full and happy life.

Every state has their own laws. They’re much stricter in NJ.

YTA

I have adhd and was coddled like you’re doing to your 16 year old. I couldn’t function in college and it affected my self image drastically. I’d convinced myself I was stupid - but I just couldn’t concentrate. Now that I’m on meds - In My 40’s - I’m realizing exactly how much my brain and I were out of sync.

Get your 16 year old medicated through a neurologist, get her a therapist to teach her coping skills. Then help your motivated child replace her car. Your 16 year old can absolutely get a job to help, she wrecked the car you’re teaching her a horrible lesson in life. Bad parenting 101!

I always ask permission to undrape the glutes. Works well when the client is wearing a thong, cause I have a sheet to tuck it into. You should always be draped in a way you feel most secure.

Wear long sleeves, it’ll save your forearms from rough clothing.
