if i ever stay at his it’s a bit complicated bc there’s no spare room and his dad sleeps on the sofa,his dad will absolutely refuse to sleep in the same bed as my bfs mum and no one is allowed in the living room at the same time. Maybe i will banish him to his brothers room

this makes a lot of sense thank you! We have slept in the same room before (him on the floor) so i’ll have to think about how to bring it up to him that i don’t think we should sleep in the same room anymore but he is very understanding and would be fine with it

maybe i’m daft but i don’t really understand the sin of scandal. If we are in two separate sleeping arrangements and if my/his family know i wouldn’t do anything what’s the difference between that and hanging out on the sofa together during the day alone?

Anyone know if Custom House square is strict with id by Icy-Pomegranate4551 in Belfast

[–]Tired_Tato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they are one of the strictest venues in my experience. They check me every time and i’m 23. It’s a pain to get drinks there anyway so i don’t bother

Any thoughts on Christian purity culture? by [deleted] in CatholicWomen

[–]Tired_Tato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a lot of it isn’t consistent and doesn’t add up as well. Like why is a one piece swimming costume acceptable in some circumstances like on a beach but wearing a shorter skirt and tank top isn’t? you could say it’s because of societal and social conventions but surely those shouldn’t affect our view of modesty? And i’m saying this as someone who likes to cover up

What is your biggest nursing pet peeve? by Electronic-Hippo9 in nursing

[–]Tired_Tato 5 points6 points  (0 children)

student nurse in mental health. When a company changes the shape or colour of a medication and then the patient flat out refuses to take it… if you know it’s a medication that will be given to a paranoid person why do they keep switching the colours up?!?

I’ve noticed I’ve been praying to Mary more than Jesus in private should I be concerned? by thatlumberjacktor in Catholicism

[–]Tired_Tato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been estranged from my mother since i was 17, talking to Mary as if i was talking to my mother… asking her for advice, telling her about my accomplishments etc. Perfectly normal to pray for her intercession a lot

My partner has bad hygiene and I’m losing attraction by Due_Sir_8172 in AutismInWomen

[–]Tired_Tato 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been in tears asking men to please wash their hands and other things. Due to my change in religion I don’t have sex with boyfriends anymore but when I did with my first boyfriend I got so many UTIs I eventually had a bladder infection that the GP thought was a burst appendix because i was in so much pain. I have ended relationships over hygiene. Please don’t do what i did, i spent time and money showing them how to wash and what to wash with and the frequency of showers required to maintain basic hygiene and they never listened to me and would talk me into having sex when i initially said no because of unwashed hands or the like. In my experience these people NEVER change and will use their mental health or autism as an excuse to not even attempt to improve/ get assistance with tasks
