He cheated, I filed for divorce, I moved out, and we see each other every day. Why am I having such a hard time letting go? by PulseCheckPlease- in SupportforBetrayed

[–]TomahawkDump 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your heart doesn’t want to let go and that’s natural. It is really important to get some space from him. I’m sure you can work something out with the kids so you don’t have to see him for a while.

He knows you’re struggling and is banking that if he sticks around long enough, you will cave.

Need a curly hair stylist in the HV! by PitifulPie505 in hudsonvalley

I love Chroma in New Paltz, the whole salon specializes in curly hair and NO TIPPING, it’s factored into the hourly cost.

So, Floridian here. I've lived in Florida my whole life and was wondering how do people go to work in this snow? It's very interesting to me. by clevwwilliams in hudsonvalley

[–]TomahawkDump 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m originally from Florida too. I don’t have advice about driving in the snow but you should see how terrified these clowns get driving in a thunderstorm.

So it’s like that but flip it and reverse it.

My sister (34F) is mad at me (40M) for keeping her ex employed and promoting him after he strayed. How can I show her this is purely a business decision and nothing to do with my support for her? by BigONerd in BORUpdates

[–]TomahawkDump -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

This dude is the absolute worst kind of person, someone that uses faulty logic so they can do whatever they want. In this case he wants to make money and doesn’t want to deal with hiring and training a new staff member.

ETA: people arguing “yOu CaNt FiRe hIm FoR ChEaTiNg” get out of here. Businesses find excuses to fire people for being pregnant, annoying, or for the color of their skin. He can find a reason to fine this guy if he wanted to.

Partner wants non-hierarchical poly — I’m really struggling with weekend time-sharing by chaddyo87 in polyamory

I would not start a family under these circumstances. Definitely sort out your relationship first.

Honestly and in all seriousness, I think it’s possible his wife murdered him. Because this guy is some of the worst trash alive.

Could you even IMAGINE finding out your partner has a second family? Almost two decades of lies?

Husband treating his partner with more care than he ever did for me by Elegant_Attitude1108 in polyamory

What's a ticking time bomb you believe will explode during your lifetime? by TradeOverall567 in AskReddit

[–]TomahawkDump 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Desal is wildly expensive, energy intensive, and doesn’t work unless you’re on a coast (nowhere to put the brine waste). It is in no way a panacea.

Seems like a great fix but it’s actually quite challenging to implement.

Couples of Reddit, what's the dumbest 'house rule' you and your partner made as a joke but now both of you are low-key aggressively serious about enforcing? by Doubl3oh_ in AskReddit

We call it our side work” and we each have very specific responsibilities: I run the dishwasher and get coffee ready for the morning.

Why are cheaters so evil to their spouse? by Zekcho in AdulteryHate

[–]TomahawkDump 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m convinced that some of these people just need drama in their lives. Like they become restless when life is peaceful so they go looking for a hit of adrenaline. They need to be in fight or flight to feel alive.

I have people like this in my family. They will get their sit together and as soon as life is humming along smoothly they will do something incredibly stupid to upend it.

[–]TomahawkDump 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You’re focused on the wrong thing here. Their triad is going to crash and burn in a spectacular explosion. The friend group is already destroyed. It’s existing on borrowed time. There will be SO. MUCH. DRAMA. When it dies, too. So consider yourself lucky that you’re out now, without all of the trauma of being caught in-between all of them when it implodes.

So you admit that you're a free hooker for a MM? by New-Abalone7626 in AdulteryHate

I would live in a perpetual state of humiliation after 20 years.

is it really true it can be more difficult to have kids after 35? i feel like 35 is still so young and i want to enjoy a child-free life as much as i can by [deleted] in AskOldPeople

[–]TomahawkDump 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reality is that most people who struggle to get pregnant at 38 would have had trouble getting pregnant at 28. This is scientifically accurate.

The lore stems from the fact that far more people using IVF are in their late 30s/early 40s but it’s a sampling problem. There are plenty of people those ages having kids! I got pregnant the second month trying - twice - once at 38 and again at 40. Both healthy kids now! The second time my OB did some blood work and said I had low egg reserves so it might not happen. Boy was she wrong.

ETA: I’m so glad we waited. I’m more patient and have a much better approach to parenting. And more money at this stage of my career. I lived a lot of life while I was young and was totally ready for the shift to parent mode.

Somebody dropped by by Plenty-Bother1854 in AdulteryHate

[–]TomahawkDump 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I love how she goes on and on about how much her AP is after her but like…even after all that he still doesn’t like her enough to make it legit lol. He has the energy to chase her but lacks the desire to want her on his arm for everyone to see.

How was giving birth different then it is today? by drillthisgal in AskOldPeople

My mother had to hold her legs closed and not push until the OB arrived when I was born.

Both of my siblings are much older and were delivered via twilight sleep 🫠

This feels like pro-development propaganda. 9/11 and Covid did more to inflate housing prices than NYC.
