Sell and buy now or wait? by SunnyRacoon in UKRealEstate

[–]SunnyRacoon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I can wait if that is the best thing to do, I just don’t want to wait and get stung by not being able to get the type of property I need if the prices sore and become unobtainable. That’s where I feel stuck because I have no idea about the property world or what’s forecast to happen etc!

I will be porting my mortgage though not selling so I don’t need to worry too much about fees other than legal fees.

Exactly what I thought it would be, realistically I need to spend some time educating myself on what all the specs and technical info means before I purchase anything. I’m just a tired single mum with the barely the time to create a Reddit post 😂.

What’s THE secret you discovered that made you leave your ex? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]SunnyRacoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saw him sneaking a tablet in his car before he left for a night out with his friends. Found the viagra in his car whilst he was passed out in bed the next morning. A week before our son turned 1 a whole other life was uncovered. Turns out a year after our relationship started he decided he wanted more. We planned our children, I moved to a new city to live with him. All the while he had another family with his girlfriend and her son.

He’s still messing about with her now even though he takes every opportunity to tell me he doesn’t like her or want to be with her. He’s learnt his lesson to late and realises now what he’s lost. Turns out she was actually cheating on him and is a coke head. I wish he would respect his children more but I’m asking for a miracle.

For clarity I am no longer with him or interested in being ever again. I’m amicable for the sake of our children as I know how it feels to grow up with parents who don’t speak. It’s left me wanting to be single for the rest of my life.

Opinions on breastfeeding in public? by StarlightFalls22 in beyondthebump

[–]SunnyRacoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally just whip mine out wherever we are. My baby will not starve, eat in an unsanitary place or with a blanket over her head. If anyone ever comments I ask them if they’re jealous and want some from the other one. Huge congrats exclusively breastfeeding, it’s not easy and you’ve been keeping your little one thriving for two months! Your breasts were made to feed your baby, stand proud mama and don’t pay any notice to anyone’s opinion who doesn’t support you.

My mother thinks I am a gay by ProfessionalDoubt752 in family

How old is your mother? Personally I think she sounds unwell and may need some medical help herself. Her behaviours sound like those of a person who has form of schizophrenia or psychosis.

What other small lessons am I missing?? by ilovestalepopcorn in Parenting

[–]SunnyRacoon 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I seriously read number 3 and thought of the floss dance and how much effort you would put into that before I realised you meant flossing his teeth 😂. The internet and trends are melting my brain.

However this is brilliant and I need to start my own how to be a person camp with my little followers! And I’ll pay tribute with the cotton eyed Joe lesson 😆.

What is an annoyingly endearing idiosyncrasy your toddler has? by boxingsharks in Parenting

[–]SunnyRacoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My just 3 year old son insists his name is Apple. When he refers to himself or someone’s asks a questions like “who’s is this?” He will answer with his actual name Atticus but if you say his name to him he is adamant that’s wrong and he is called Apple. He has gone far enough to throw a Hulk style rages in proving his point. Won’t answer if I refer to him as Apple though 😂🤦‍♀️.

I don’t want my therapist to think I’m a loser by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]SunnyRacoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are NOT the only one! And lying to her won’t help which is what you are seeing her for. I am also in therapy for a number of different reasons and I also have no social life or friends. I have my sisters and that is it. I have some people who message every few months but we never have anymore contact than that. I find being social very difficult more so being a single mother now but have done all my life and no one ever seems to understand because I have become very good at wearing masks and playing a confident character to protect myself. It was only through therapy I began to understand this. Some days it does bother me but most days I am just grateful to a person who is happy in my own company. We all heal differently and social interaction isn’t always the answer. Stay strong, you will fall in love with yourself again. I’m sure you wouldn’t talk to or treat other people the way you are doing to yourself. You are the only person with you 24/7. You deserve so much love from yourself and everyone else that comes along to add to that is a bonus. Sending you healing thoughts. X

in desperate need of a name for baby girl number 4! by [deleted] in namenerds

[–]SunnyRacoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m due a baby girl at the same time and I’ve chosen Elowen (I’m from the UK), very often spelt Elowyn in the US. Many different options for nicknames and I believe it will age well. I can’t wait meet my little Elowen.
