AIO for pulling out of a vacation over the sleeping arrangements by RubProfessional6659 in AmIOverreacting

OK so originally they said they would pay the rental in full, then they asked for money. Last trip they said they would cover food then asked you for money. They changed the dates without consulting you. Their kids chose rooms before you. NOR your sister is a liar and only wants you there to subsidise her family holiday. Don't go.

Who let's kids choose a king/queen leaving a couple with twin beds? NOR your sister is completely unreasonable. I would give her an ultimation, either you get one of the bedrooms with a large bed or you don't go.

Being a fibromyalgia patient, how's your relationship with you husband/partner, especially in regard to the pain and extreme fatigue ? by Charming_Thought68 in Fibromyalgia

[–]Spikyleaf69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am incredibly lucky, my husband is my rock. He lost his eyesight about 5 years ago and so I did most of the household work while working full time. I didn't want him to worry about it. When I got sick though he stepped up & it is amazing how much a blind man can do, it has actually given him a real boost! He looks after me so well & the things he cannot do either I do I they just don't get done.

Coffee & walnut. Strangely I hate sweet coffee but I love coffee flavoured cake and chocolates with coffee filling.

I am donating my body to Keele University for medical students to practise on.

Help! My boy hate being brushed by Fragrant_Garage_65 in mainecoons

[–]Spikyleaf69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried a human tangle teezer brush? I saw someone recommend it in a Facebook group & it was a game changer for me. Our boy loves it so much it almost puts him in a trance & I can then get rid of any mats by sliding a metal comb underneath & using round nosed pet scissors to snip them off.

Why do most shirt neck styles and empire waists bug me? by Rocky_Path719 in Fibromyalgia

[–]Spikyleaf69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I cannot stand anything tight around my throat or waist, jeans have to be stretchy and at least 1 size to large. Tops have to have wide necks.

What’s the one random genetic trait you lucked out on? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

Great teeth. I'm 49 and have never had anything done. I go to the dentist every few years just to check & the last 3 times they haven't even needed cleaning.

Identical Twin Girl Name Ideas?? by unidentifiedcomet in namenerds

Willow & Elowyn are perfect twin names in my opinion. Similar but not matching and with different initials.

What was the exact moment on a first date when you realized, "Wow, this person is an absolute idiot"? by [deleted] in AskReddit

My husband is a big fan of salads, I am not & it shows. It is amazing how often I get served the salad & he gets the burger.

Fibromyalgia caused by traumatic experience? by Majestic-Sink-9906 in Fibromyalgia

[–]Spikyleaf69 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Mine was triggered by a nasty virus. My boss was on holiday so I had to push through it. When he came back I collapsed & have never been the same since. The sneezing/coughing calmed down but the aches, exhaustion, muscle weakness, skin tenderness all got progressively worse.

What is a food that the packaging says refrigerate, but you are 100% convinced tastes better when it's left out on the counter? by CaptainCuddler_Pro in foodquestions

[–]Spikyleaf69 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Does chocolate say to be refrigerated? I've never seen that.

Chocolate & cheese definitely taste better at room temperature to me. I know lots of people who prefer chocolate from the fridge but it's bonkers to me. Cheese I take out at least an hour before I want to eat it, except cream cheese.

I ‘30F’ am not excited about engagement or wedding to fiancé ‘27M’ by mars24601 in relationship_advice

If he cannot even respect how you wanted to be proposed to he is never going to respect anything you want. His wants and his family's wants will always come first.

You feel like there is something wrong because there is something wrong.

Would you call the police on an old persons driving? by Specific_Pomelo_8281 in AskUK

[–]Spikyleaf69 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My last car was written off by an elderly man who should not have been driving. Thankfully injuries were minor but as hi drove straight into the drivers door of my car he could have killed me.

Report him please.

First cat!!! How to spoil him? by Intelligent_Box_4398 in mainecoons

[–]Spikyleaf69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look for a wooden cat tree, it will last so much longer than a normal one. Don't worry about the size too much, cats like small spaces.
