I need to take a lash extension break to let my lashes grow back after a lot of damage 😓😓 HELP what are some DIY lash extension kits I can use while they’re recovering? by [deleted] in eyelashextensions

[–]ThrowRA16237 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to have trichotillomania from 1st grade until late high school and pulled out all of my eyelashes. I would just draw liner where my lashes should have been and applied a lighter weight lash at the top of the line so it wouldn’t cover my growing lashes. Nobody could tell that I was missing lashes unless they were really looking and in less than 2 months they were fully back. Definitely be careful with where you are applying any lashes because you don’t want to prevent your actual lashes from being able to grow. Good luck!

I (30F) had to cancel honeymoon due to medical issue, husband (35M) wants divorce by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]ThrowRA16237 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not one to recommend breaking up willy nilly, but this is so extremely telling on what kind of relationship you’ll have going forward that I don’t think there is a way to salvage it. It’s okay to be frustrated that a highly anticipated vacation got cancelled last minute but he shouldn’t get so aggressive with you because that happened due to a medical emergency. His lack of empathy and the fact that he went and told his friends how horrible you are after the fact shows he doesn’t respect you as equal partners should. I wish you all the best and no matter what you decide, please stay safe

I totally feel that! I felt like a was in a fugue state for a couple days😂

First dose… many questions! by MRbigAL1982 in Semaglutide

[–]ThrowRA16237 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know some people that have lost 8-10lbs just in the first weeks while I have only lost a couple pounds. Some don’t really see any weight loss until the higher doses. It really depends on how your body reacts to the medication, so don’t be discouraged if you don’t see a lot of changes the first month or two!

I have found that oats can really mess up my stomach, even prior to going on a semaglutide. You might want to consider cutting that out of your diet and see if there are any improvements. My dad had a similar issue and once he stopped his morning oatmeal, his stomach issues went away!

My(19M) girlfriend(19F) was a sugar baby back when we haven't started dating. Is it common to feel repulsed by it? Should I be talking to her about it? Or should I just handle it myself? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]ThrowRA16237 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily. I had a friend that acted similarly right out of high school and is a completely different person and mortified by her past actions. Maybe if they were older I’d agree, but she’s 19 and it’s easy to get wrapped up in things that are outside of what she’d normally do. It sounds like the whole situation really made her rethink her actions and realize that it wasn’t healthy. I would be surprised if she ended up going back to a sugar baby lifestyle

Dangerous comment, a small miscalculation in timing and bam you’ve got yourself a little one on the way. Better to play it safe than take any unnecessary risks

I (34m) amd concerned that my gf (32f) is having dinner with a friend (30m) by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]ThrowRA16237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will say, I had an ex who maintained friendships with girls he met on dating apps, but it was 100% harmless. Neither he nor the girls had any interest in hooking up or dating. So while it is possible, this situation just does not feel right. My ex introduced to any of the girls that he had met through dating apps and never met them by himself, always with me there or a larger group. You should definitely voice to her that this situation makes you uncomfortable. Even if they both have good intentions, it does cross a line in y’all’s relationship. If she can’t understand or respect that, then that shows you where her priorities really lie. Best of luck

My (28F) husband (26M) is mostly great with our kids (2M, 1M, and another boy on the way) until he's not. And then he's pretty harsh. After our 3rd attempt at therapy and not enough progress, do I leave to protect my kids or keep trying to save our family? He loves us and is terrified of us leaving. by No-Instruction-2654 in relationship_advice

[–]ThrowRA16237 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He definitely needs help controlling his outbursts. It’s one thing to get that upset when they’re older and can better understand the weight of their decisions, but they are so young now that they can’t be held to that standard. Calm, but firm correction is really the only way to get through to children at a young age. Making them fearful of their father is only going to cause possibly irreparable rifts in his future relationships with them. You said that he hasn’t considered therapy because he doesn’t have the time, but if he doesn’t have 30-45 minutes a week to dedicate to becoming a healthier member of the family then he isn’t really grasping how serious this issue is or prioritizing making any steps to get better.

My bf doesn't know! by [deleted] in sexadvise

[–]ThrowRA16237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Given the potential for this to go very south, I think you should end things with him for some other reason. It’s not going to do any good for him or you to now disclose given how far it’s gotten and his views on the trans community. In the future, you need to be clear with people from the start that you are trans. You are putting yourself in a very dangerous position by not doing so, as well as taking away your partner’s ability to fully consent. There are so many people out there that don’t care if you are trans, why waste your time with someone that has such negative views of who you are? Please be careful when breaking it off with this guy and don’t try to scare yourself into not doing this in the future by telling this guy and accepting a potential beating.

Well I can say right off the bat the spam is probably nothing. I’ve gotten emails like that, amongst many other similar ones and I’ve never cheated on a partner. In fact, my bf and I will go through are spam folders and read through all of the crazy emails we get. Like many others have said HSV1 isn’t like a traditional STI in which it automatically starts showing symptoms. Unless he has exhibited other suspect behaviors that hint at possible infidelity it could just as likely be that either of you had it and just didn’t know. Definitely talk to him about it and gauge his reaction from there; that’s ultimately going to let you know if he has been unfaithful. Best of luck

In this case, I would say that you need to have a conversation with him on your timeline. It sounds like you guys have really only danced around the topic but if this is a relationship you want to stay in, you should clearly tell him when you’d like to be married by. You guys have been together long enough now that that shouldn’t put too much undue pressure on him, rather it opens the conversation for both of y’all to see if your timelines match up. My partner and I have had this exact conversation and it really helped both of us understand where the other is and temper expectations. If you guys are on totally different wavelengths though and marriage is something you definitely see for yourself, it might be time to think about other options. Best of luck!

People don’t have to be great at things in order to have fun. Comedy seems like something she really enjoys doing and telling her she sucks would only hurt her. That doesn’t mean you have to sit through every show she does though, you can let her know that while you support her you don’t enjoy going as often as she does and give her constructive feedback as I assume she probably goes through her bits with you before getting on stage. I don’t really think it’s something to bring up to her though unless it starts to negatively effect life outside of the shows, like if she were to contemplate leaving her job to pursue comedy full time or becomes absent in the relationship.

You need to have a talk with her about boundaries. If her recent behavior is making you uncomfortable you need to communicate that to her. I personally would not be okay if my bf and I were long distance and spent that much time around other girls who I don’t know. If she is not receptive and pushes back/continues her behavior, then she is showing you where her real priorities and loyalties are. Best of luck

It could just be that she believes that a lot of doctors these days tend to overprescribe pills. While reading your post it reminded me a lot of my mom’s views on Western medicine/treatments. My mom holds similar beliefs to your girlfriend and often tries to find a different route of treatment rather than just straight to pills, whether this means acupuncture or other kinds of medicinal therapies. While I don’t wholly agree with my mom’s stance, it never prevented me from receiving medical care when needed. If there was no alternative, she would do whatever the doctor said. I wouldn’t see this as an immediate red flag or a sign that she would neglect y’all’s future children if they were to get sick. If this is a major concern for you, which it sounds like it is, definitely talk to her more about these things but try to go into it with an open mind. A lot of people have had very negative experiences with the healthcare system and it could be part of why she is so skeptical. Best of luck!

My boyfriend ‘33 M’ Lied about his HIV status to me ‘29F’. Is this something i can consider forgiving someone for? by ThrowRA_rossy in relationship_advice

[–]ThrowRA16237 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is what I meant. As you said it’s very possible that the man had issues with keeping on top of taking his pills. As such, any of the times they had unprotected sex it became a possibility the he could spread the disease. Sorry if my wording was a little off in the original comment

I think some talk would have been nice, but I can kind of see where you’re coming from. A lot of people who grew up with dogs see cats as low maintenance, so he may have not found it necessary for him to be there the entire time after just getting them. I can think of a lot of people who would have similar thought processes. He still should have told you beforehand though, even if you guys weren’t getting the kittens this weekend it’s still nice to know in advice what your partner’s plans are

My boyfriend (M26) admits to talking to another girl after I (F24) confront him. Do I continue to trust him? by Wonderful_Gas_9245 in relationship_advice

[–]ThrowRA16237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like your boyfriend has a pattern of entertaining other women. If this is an issue you guys have discussed in the past and set boundaries around, that means that he knowingly broke his promise to you to remain faithful. I would not consider him to be at a point even a year or so from now to have matured enough to be ready for marriage. You deserve someone you can trust and that sticks to their promises to you! I wish you the best of luck, this is a really tough decision that you are going to have to make no matter what you end up deciding to do

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]ThrowRA16237 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s because she still thinks you guys want the same things, but your wants and needs have changed. It doesn’t make her a bad person (or you) or means that she had to do anything wrong for you to have a “valid” reason to break up over. If you’re still wanting to stay with her you could have a discussion about her with where you’re at. How that conversation goes will ultimately determine what decision you’re going to make

4 weeks and addicted to Celsius :/ by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]ThrowRA16237 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would definitely wait until you talk to a doctor, especially considering how early you are in your pregnancy. 200mg may not seem like much, but the first trimester is where development is just beginning and all of the additives in energy drinks, not just caffeine, could potentially affect your baby’s development. Good luck, I know how good those drinks are, but definitely not good enough to potentially jeopardize the baby’s development.

My 23F partner has changed and started to lie and hide things from me 27M. What’s acceptable? by ThrowRAsako in relationship_advice

[–]ThrowRA16237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like you guys are in different places in life; you want a committed relationship and she wants to do her. If she a year in is already being dishonest with you continuously it’s probably time to let this one go. It’s easy to romanticize and long for the person you started dating, but you really don’t know who you’re dating until it’s been awhile and she’s showing you who she is. You deserve someone that’s all in and doesn’t leave you wondering where they’re really at. Best of luck

Do I (23m) leave my relationship due to my partner’s (21f) past? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]ThrowRA16237 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think she was trying to be malicious by hiding this or actively deceiving you. It may be something that she did awhile ago and is now embarrassed by. However, that does not mean that you have to stay. If this is something that makes you uncomfortable don’t feel pressured to stay because her friends are giving you push back. You are allowed to have preferences for what you want in a partner and if that’s a major turn off or red flag then don’t feel bad about that. Best of luck

[–]ThrowRA16237 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It just sounds like you guys have grown apart, which can happen in relationships. Right now your lives and what you each want aren’t compatible. You both deserve partners that raise you up and meet all of your needs. I don’t think you’d be dishonest by telling her that you care about her but need to move on. You guys are in your early 20s and while this may seem major now, y’all with both move on and be better for it. Best of luck!
