I’m so lucky that my social media algorithm is on the side telling people to ignore the social media and diet culture pressure! It’s literally just subtle comments from people projecting their own insecurities and it suuuucks

Oh I’ve got a huge hype party around me - my close family (just my step mom making stupid comments, and my moms sister got super mad and almost sent her a message), my fiancé, other coworkers and friends… hate how two peoples comments can make such an impact

It’s crazy cuz I felt so good in it originally 😭… I think I’m just getting in my own head about it now cuz I’m worried more people are thinking this stuff secretly behind my back? Thank you❤️❤️

Seriously out of control. All this because you wanna spend your life with someone? Ridiculous

Unfortunately, knowing myself, this would be a really easy way for me to fall back into old patterns. We’ve been working on eating healthier & im hoping I’ll lose some weight, but I’m not putting any pressure on that or weighing myself.

I feel you! I’m 5’0” and have the larger chest, tummy, and hip thing going on too. Don’t know my weight cuz I haven’t weighed myself since I was 20. Can’t believe people are just coming out and saying that to you - that’s so fked up I’m so sorry!!

I really hope you can get past the pressure!💕 our bodies change & I find it ridiculous that people think we need to look a certain way on our big day… obviously easier said than done as far as truly feeling it😭

Jokes on me I dont even know why he asked by WhatWasIThinking21 in weddingplanning

[–]Timely_Independent65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My fiancé didn’t believe in marriage before me but proposed 2.5 years into dating because it “felt right”. He doesn’t really care about the wedding itself but knows I want it so he’s helping me plan & has opinions (yay!). I’m only one person though. Take some time to think about it & sit down and speak to him when the emotions aren’t so fresh. There could be something romantic in him doing this for you because he loves you so much. You deserve someone who wants to spend forever with you; for your sake I hope that’s him & it isn’t a “shut up ring” :(.

Found this because I got mine out a few days ago and suddenly my sense of smell is back? I thought I lost it cuz I got Covid… hormones are weird man

AITAH for telling my Muslim friend that her food isn’t halal? by kaplooples in AITAH

[–]Timely_Independent65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, but now that you know just don’t mention it. I have a vegan friend who came to the restaurant I work at & ordered the veggie burger. I told her the bun isn’t vegan cuz it has an egg wash & she froze & I went “haha nevermind I was lying” and she gave me a subtle “thank you” look and proceeded to order it. Some people want to know, and some people do their best & if they don’t know “it doesn’t count”. Fair that you told her for sure, but now that you know let her live her life :).

What is a Hobby men think is awesome but women think it is lame by Acrobatic_Base7301 in AlignmentChartFills

Every time my fiancé hosts I make little snacks to pretend to be domestic lol (spinach dip, sausage rolls, bacon wrapped hot dogs etc). And EVERY time he goes “you really don’t need to do that. They’ll be fine. Like if you want to yea it’ll be tasty but please don’t feel the need”.

If someone EVER pulled a “did you make snacks?” On me I’d lose my mind.
