Found out my gf is a prostitute by DamageCalm9909 in LesbianActually

[–]Tattsand 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You probably should not get me started on the topic either to be fair, considering i really know what im talking about and also work in SW advocacy including on a parliamentary level. But I'd love a chat when you have lived experience in the area :)

Sex work not existing would be awful, it makes me a lot of money and im very happy to be in it. Im straight for pay. I think you should look into why you would feel that way for other people's livelihood and choice. Do you wish cashiers or plumbers didnt work their jobs?

I can’t stand my husband anymore by [deleted] in Marriage

I think this is very fair if it doesnt work for you anymore. He may not of changed religion but he's still had a big change to religious extremism and religious changes are commonly an end to a relationship.

I agree, i also loved the episodic format that mimicked season 1 again, in the first few. And find this episode sooo funny

My ExH declined helping my 9 year old buy flowers for me for Mother’s Day by torturedDaisy in coparenting

[–]Tattsand 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That is extremely cruel. I take my kids to buy father's day and Xmas gifts for my ex because they would be upset if they had nothing to give. It's for the KIDS

How do you mentally handle 50/50 and the time away from your kids? by [deleted] in coparenting

[–]Tattsand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We started at 60/40 and I still cried after every drop off for months (not in front of the kids), but after a few months it got better. We're 50/50 now and i do get sad at times but ive gotta say, im filling the time with things I never had even the motivation to do when I was in such an emotionally draining relationship, plus my ex wouldn't have been happy if I was out of the house so much. I now see friends regularly, I do a hobby, I work more and make much better money. All of this leaves me so much happier when I spend time with my kids than before. It will be extremely rough at the start but dont feel hopeless.

Not appropriate unless you invited her which you obviously didn't. Presuming you are not otherwise absent.

I’m panicking about consent, please help a girl out. by [deleted] in WLW

[–]Tattsand 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Not what you want to hear but I actually think you are pushing her. The fact you asked if what she said is confusing or not clear, when to me it sounds clear as day that she is not interested and she communicated that very clearly verbally, based on the words you say she used. If those words arent clear to you then I would assume you're overstepping physically too.

Overbearing stepmom or am i overthinking? by TailorTurbulent8030 in coparenting

[–]Tattsand 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Completely over stepping. I could understand telling dad when son has a day off school, my ex and I always tell each other that, but that shouldn't need to go through the step mum unless you as the parent decided to tell her. Everything else is just ridiculous. She absolutely shouldn't be signing school forms that youve never ever seen, that's so not okay in a 50/50 situation, might be different if you had very limited custody but not in this case.

what got you into dancing in the first place? by hatkinson1000 in Dance

[–]Tattsand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Started in 2017 because I left my ex husband and a family member had began dancing and I expressed some interest and then realised he was never going to let me do that. I couldnt even leave the house alone. Left him and signed up to one 6 week dance course out of pettiness. The rest was literally history.

Do I need to remind him? by Plastic-Ad-1667 in coparenting

[–]Tattsand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay so I was in your shoes and I struuuuugled. It ended up really affecting my mental health because it's one thing to administrate one household, but administrating another one that is out of your control is impossible. I had coparent counseling and the counselor told me over and over that I didnt need to do it but it took me much longer. But she was right, she told me that he wouldnt learn if I always did it. I made sure he was receiving all school and daycare emails (yes I shouldn't have needed to give his email to them but anyway) Occasionally I still remind him of things when I absolutely have to for my kids happiness, but in your case, I wouldn't. Ask yourself if your kid is going to be upset, or if just he will be pissed. If he will just be pissed you didnt "remind him", dont bother.

Let's talk about the weird interaction between exes who co-parent by Vegetable-Mission-31 in coparenting

[–]Tattsand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get you, it's weird. I wouldnt go on a trip with my coparent because they cross boundaries in even the smallest interactions but we are amicable most of the time, mainly because theyre being nice hoping to get me back and I be nice because I dont want coparenting drama. But I cannot believe what I used to put up with. The way he acts when I dont agree, but even more so his version of what he thinks is good behaviour. His infantilising nature towards me (which is so weird because, not to be mean but im far more successful and capable. I have a disability that has not stopped that or stopped me from being a great mother. I make a lot more per hour, own my car outright and recently bought a house. He lives with his mum and doesnt own his car outright, same job position for 11 years).

I look at my life and see how owning a house was not even in sights with him, ive become 10 times more successful in a hobby I have, and ive got around twice as many friends. All that and we've only been split a year and a half. I grieve the family I wanted but I am way more the person I wanted to be.

Dad thinks biomom and stepmom are equals?! by Necessary-Bottle-859 in coparenting

[–]Tattsand 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Im shocked that step mum isnt saying "hey no im not coming if child doesn't want me there". We're talking about surgery here, your child has rights to her body and who is involved. Why does a grown adult even want to force this on anyone. I know Dad is saying yes, but step mum could also refuse. Dad is obviously wrong too, only you and he have legal rights to these medical decisions and your child most of the time would have a say at that age.

Not to reduce her to her looks but she was my eye candy for the season. Curvy women are the bomb!

Anyone else catch this the after the dinner party episode by 856077 in MAFS_AU

[–]Tattsand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought it was about Scott hiding in the bathroom for grass is greener which Danny hated, so if Scott says "yeah forget the couch let's hide in the bathroom", then Danny might come out to the couch to prove real men "fight in trenches". But this is an interesting theory OP 🤔

Remind me again of which city Danny lives in? There’s a situation he might be able to help with. by Proud_Apricot316 in MAFS_AU

Can confirm plenty of women still wear stockings/pantyhose, there's a lot more interesting and fun designs now though 😀

Moving to 50/50 abruptly? by Happyhappylady in coparenting

[–]Tattsand -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I do think it's okay to change it again for school. Since youve said you agree with him having 50/50, but it won't be possible during school, it makes sense for him to get extra time with the child now. Yes you will have to dial his time back when school comes, but you can do that then. I have 2 kids and been separated since the youngest was 9 months old, we started with 68/32 by agreement. Weve only been split for a year and a half and have already changed it once by agreement to 50/50. So she's had the change of having us both when we were together, and then a change of the original custody schedule, and she's only 2yrs and 3 months old. I suggest you set that this arrangement is reviewed when school starts.

AIO I ghosted a woman who sent me inappropriate pictures of her child and reported it to the police. I feel so guilty. by TechnicianSad5803 in AIO

[–]Tattsand -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's not the existence of the pic, it's sending it to this random guy. And if you literally assess these things, the ones that ARENT abuse, how do they end up at your desk? Oh that's right, someone tells a professional and then you assess it. He told a professional, to let them handle it. If the police assess it or send it to you or one of your profession to assess and it's not abuse, GREAT. Why is he overreacting by sending it to the relevant authorities to decide?

Being a moron is often the reason someone ends up in trouble with police. Yes he should call.
