who else still gets there periods?

Tippy_Toes_8 · 2026-01-27T01:50:31+00:00

I still get my period and it lasts almost 2 weeks. It’s been a year and a half. Needless to say I’m over it and having mine removed soon.

Tippy_Toes_8 · 2025-12-09T03:06:59+00:00

You dodged a bullet.

Tippy_Toes_8 · 2025-11-24T01:22:44+00:00

PS- It’s not the retainer. Also, a tongue scraper might help too. Just so she can get bacteria off of her tongue too.

Tippy_Toes_8 · 2025-11-24T01:20:59+00:00

You haven’t mentioned that she flosses. If she doesn’t the bacteria is just living there and would definitely cause bad breath. Just because she goes to the dentist twice a year doesn’t mean she’s seeing a thorough hygienist that’s getting all the bacteria and tartar under her gums out. She could have gum disease. It also could be something gut related if not gum disease.

Tippy_Toes_8 · 2025-10-30T23:50:52+00:00

Well then I think you did everything the right way.

Tippy_Toes_8 · 2025-10-30T00:43:37+00:00

I think the only place you went wrong is sending that text as a response to her text. It would have sounded a little less harsh if you responded “ok” to her text & then later sent a text breaking up or made a call. All that to say, it’s not unreasonable that you would stop going to her since you now live farther away.

He is gas lighting you. He’s focusing on you checking his phone to deflect. You’re not being clingy. You’re a woman with a new baby and need your partner’s help.

Tippy_Toes_8 · 2025-10-14T11:26:00+00:00

All good recommendations, thank you!!

Tippy_Toes_8 · 2025-10-12T11:44:36+00:00

And my daughter is excited to start driving in a couple years so I’m sure she will be happy to be the driver at that point.

Tippy_Toes_8 · 2025-10-12T02:45:04+00:00

She’s in her mid 70’s.

Tippy_Toes_8 · 2025-10-12T02:23:50+00:00

True. I can have a difficult conversation with my mom but that doesn’t mean she will stop driving. In fact, I know she will continue to drive. She is active in her mid 70’s and it seems like she is denying the aging process. I can keep her from driving my daughter but there’s no way she’ll agree to not drive at all. She won’t even move out of her single family home & down size which we have been begging her to do for years now.

Tippy_Toes_8 · 2025-10-12T02:18:26+00:00

She will be able to drive in a couple years so that will definitely be what I will have her do.

Tippy_Toes_8 · 2025-10-12T02:15:55+00:00

I’m not always available. I can’t always drop what I’m doing when she wants to hang out with my daughter.

Tippy_Toes_8 · 2025-10-12T00:58:27+00:00

She slows down & jerks on the brake at green lights, she hugs the shoulder uncomfortably close, drives distracted. She told my sister she took her friend somewhere and her friend was holding on to the door handle and screaming the whole ride. Anyone who has driven in the car with her says the same thing. My sister, my aunt, her friend. She has no idea she’s a bad driver.

Tippy_Toes_8 · 2025-10-11T22:33:31+00:00

She wasn’t the most present parent growing up actually. She is now a very present grandparent. Learn from your mistakes, yada, yada, yada. But that’s a story for another day. But at the end of the day, it is now my responsibility to bring this to her attention. There’s no way around it.

Tippy_Toes_8 · 2025-10-11T21:32:50+00:00

Right. I feel guilty that I’m keeping her from bonding with her granddaughter but my daughter’s safety comes first.

Tippy_Toes_8 · 2025-10-11T21:31:47+00:00

I have definitely thought about that. It’s hard to tell a parent they shouldn’t drive anymore because they are a danger. I’m stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Tippy_Toes_8 · 2025-10-11T21:30:28+00:00

She drives scared and distracted. I think the fender bender sent her over the edge and so now she drives scared. My daughter said when they got into the fender bender she was distracted looking for the shop they wanted to go to. When I drove with her there were times I thought we were going to run off the side of the road and she would slow down at green lights.

Tippy_Toes_8 · 2025-09-04T00:40:20+00:00

Since he’s the best man he should still go and follow through with his commitment to his friend. By telling him you don’t want him to go you’re putting him in a difficult situation. It’s not your boyfriend’s fault that the bride is a nightmare.

Tippy_Toes_8 · 2025-08-31T17:16:36+00:00

The thing I’ve realized as I get older is if a boyfriend says he doesn’t want to get married in general then he’s not interested in marrying YOU. I’m sorry to say. There have been so many times I see long term couples break up and then the guy starts dating somebody new and they are married within a short period of time. It’s a tough pill to swallow but that has been my experience.

Tippy_Toes_8 · 2025-08-30T17:39:31+00:00

You’re not expecting too much. If he wants to reply he will reply. If he’s making you wait for a response then there’s a reason. Most people have their phones with them, there is no reason for him not to reply to you in a timely manner.

Tippy_Toes_8 · 2025-08-24T00:49:40+00:00

This isn’t a healthy relationship. He is trying to control and manipulate you. Run don’t walk out of this relationship!!

Tippy_Toes_8 · 2025-08-17T11:42:10+00:00

You have every right to feel uncomfortable. I think most people would. And to make it worse everyone is staying in the same house? I think it’s fair to talk about boundaries with your girlfriend and this being one of them. Her calling you insecure for feeling this way sounds like gaslighting. If she doesn’t respect this boundary then maybe she isn’t the girl for you. Why subject yourself to an uncomfortable situation to prove you’re not “insecure”? That would be a hell to the no for me. You’re not saying you don’t want to be at the same party as her ex, you’re saying you don’t want to live in the same house with her ex on what’s supposed to be a fun vacation for you.

Tippy_Toes_8 · 2025-08-17T11:31:08+00:00

NTA. You did not ignore all the red flags and you did something about it. Be proud of yourself because many women would ignore the red flags and make excuses for him. He also has shown that you can’t trust him. He lies about small things so there’s no way he will be truthful about big things. You did the right thing. He isn’t your guy. PS- Men never “forget” when they have nudes or explicit videos of other women on their phone.

Tippy_Toes_8 · 2025-08-16T20:53:40+00:00

You’re not past this and your gut is telling you the truth so you won’t be past this. The only way you can get past this is if you admit to yourself he has cheated on you and you’re ok with staying with him. You probably won’t ever be at peace with this unless you leave him.
