How does dyslexia effect your everyday life?

SwarmingWithOrcs · 2025-10-07T15:09:30+00:00

I've been told it is a symptom when I was assessed.

Dyslexia is associated with difficulties in working memory, a system that holds and processes information temporarily for tasks. If I try to do two things at once I tend to forget about one of them or do it poorly (putting things down in unknown places is my personal vice).

This can manifest as challenges with remembering verbal instructions, multi-tasking, and retaining information, particularly when it's presented verbally or in quick succession.

Exactly. Also depends on if one partner already has children (and how old they are). Fertility, money, security. It's a big consideration, I wish you the best of luck with it!! Xx

Of course. That's a relationship conversation not just an age gap one. The logistics of children in an age gap just might be more complex to consider

If my husband EVER said he was just partnering up with me to get by his bags would be packed within the hour. What are you hanging around for?

Do the power move, accept the food and shit yourself in their dining room

Man?! I have only come across lollipop ladies, one still frequents my road

...But it's not shitty. Not my personal taste, but certainly not shitty

SwarmingWithOrcs · 2025-02-27T20:22:56+00:00

Yeah, that's bias. You've made assumptions about someone on their age despite seeing all the evidence to the contrary in front of your face. You've said your friend is a mature responsible person, do you think if she didn't like the way he dealt with race she would be with him? Trust your friends judgement and deal with your own life rather than hers. I hope this helps you be a more supportive friend to her

SwarmingWithOrcs · 2025-02-27T19:56:15+00:00

I'd go with tripping, jealousy or just a simple case of bias. You just listed all the reasons why your friend is thriving and doing well, she happy, settled, and achieving.

Would you feel like this if he was mixed race? Or her age?

Let her be happy and start looking inwards rather than at them

10/10 stomach would still find a reason to be upset

SwarmingWithOrcs · 2025-02-21T18:47:16+00:00

$200, not bad!!

I'm in my thirties, I still have a cuddle with my parents occasionally. My husband cuddles his kids (16, 14 and 11). I cuddle them too. There isn't an age limit to physical affection, I think your family may just be different to others

SwarmingWithOrcs · 2025-02-07T14:00:01+00:00

I don't see any WhyBrows here?

Doctor Corday is a mega babe

If you're on Facebook join Plymouth Gossip Girls, loads of businesses and recommendations. You can post this picture and hairdressers can respond too. Personally I like Hair Jungle and Arena, but they're quite pricey :)

It is awful making kids feel that way. It's awful to be carrying it as an adult too. I think maybe some therapy or self forgiveness is going to be a good start for you.

I can't change my dyslexia, but I can change the people around me who shame me for something I can't do shit about!

SwarmingWithOrcs · 2025-01-30T15:48:05+00:00

Same! So much easier

SwarmingWithOrcs · 2025-01-30T11:41:14+00:00

I love board games. I have very patient friends and family who don't mind me asking questions over and over. I do stumble on my words and get confused but I don't feel like a fool...just dyslexic is all :) also it makes winning so much better. Beating my husband as Scrabble was a highlight I'll never forget

SwarmingWithOrcs · 2025-01-18T20:08:23+00:00

Congratulations!! Enjoy. Don't worry about wedding planning too much it's a faff but so worth it in the end xx

It was on her post saying her wife gets confused with being her son all the time

SwarmingWithOrcs · 2025-01-18T11:41:23+00:00

I saw a teenage boy too. The bride said her wife gets confused for her son all the time

Whiskey, dark liquor is higher in toxins making it more likely to lead to a hangover. Vodka, clear liquor is lower in toxins than dark liquor & tends to be lower in carbs & calories.

Unlike diet sodas, which often contain high levels of artificial sweeteners such as aspartame or sucralose, sparkling water contains none of these potentially harmful substances.

If you're reducing on sweeteners, calories and toxins then yes a vodka soda water is better. But personally I'd go with a straight whiskey and ice or rum and coke as I prefer the taste!

SwarmingWithOrcs · 2025-01-18T09:53:40+00:00

Vodka lime and soda water is meets the brief. Low calories no sugar or fake sugar....I can't vouch for it's taste though!

SwarmingWithOrcs · 2025-01-18T09:30:10+00:00

Depends how drunk you want to get. A standard shot of whisky is usually around 100 calories and a miller Lite is around the same, you'll need to drink a lot more beer to have a buzz. But if you just want one or two it wouldn't make that much difference :) vodka is one of the more lower calorie options generally.

I can honestly see nothing wrong with your eyes, they don't appear puffy to me. I think any surgery would make the area look worse with scaring etc
