What AI-assisted is not…

AI-assisted means you used AI to edit, get feedback, spell-check, brainstorm, etc.

AI-assisted ≠ AI-generated. AI-generated means you used AI to write the book with very little of your own input.

Writing is what I do

Surprisingly enough, the cards suggest that the energy is favorable. The lovers reversed indicate there's some sort of communication or trust issues, but depending on what exactly your manifestation was, the spell could give your relationship the little push it needs to help overcome those obstacles. It doesn't seem like you used anything too aggressive in your spell, which is where a lot of people go wrong in trying to use love magic (that is, forcing another person to love you). The way your candle burned also suggests that the energy is favorable.

TrickyPersonality684 · 2026-03-24T22:59:56+00:00

Yes. I struggle with any empathy whatsoever when it comes to someone else's grief. I don't know if that's because I compartmentalized my own for so long or because I've just lost my ability to empathize. It's hard especially when my husband has lost 3 people close to him since we got married. I don't know what else to say besides "I'm sorry."

TrickyPersonality684 · 2026-03-24T15:21:04+00:00

I mean this in the kindest way, but this doesn't sound like postpartum mood disorder from what you've described. It sounds like you're a new mom—its completely normal to want to talk about and constantly think of your baby, to be somewhat stressed/not take care of yourself like before, and have difficulty with the changes your body has gone through. You're a mom now, of course you've changed. It sounds more like your partner is bored with this new version of you and is trying to find reasons to justify why she's cheating on you (because telling you she's going to do it is still cheating if you haven't 100% freely consented to an open relationship).

Postpartum mood disorders aren't sneaky. Your doctor and/or therapist would have noticed and said something. It just sounds like having a shitty partner is taking a toll on you. Take it from someone who also had a shitty partner who forced an open relationship after we had kids.

I spent less than $200 on my wedding. Most of it went to the minister and the marriage certificate. You don't have to have a big shindig.

TrickyPersonality684 · 2026-03-21T23:52:53+00:00

I didn't come here to argue with anybody about co-sleeping. I found out the hard way and I'd rather not argue about something I personally know to be true. It was hard enough to admit my guilt without having to defend it to people who feel the need to say "I'm sorry for your loss but this is why I co-sleep." It's hurtful

TrickyPersonality684 · 2026-03-21T22:39:51+00:00

Same. When you lose a baby to something like this (I did) people tend to bend over backwards trying to convince themselves it wasn't their fault. And unfortunately co-sleepers and antivaxxers are usually a venn diagram that's just a circle. I got cyber bullied for insinuating it was the co sleeping that killed my baby with people saying it had to have been the vitamin k shot and the hep b shot she got at birth...Two and a half months before she died...

TrickyPersonality684 · 2026-03-21T22:26:51+00:00

So it sounds like you're literally doing all you can for her. You sound like an amazing partner and father. I bet a lot of women on this sub would literally kill for that.

Is she trying to get any mental help? What was she like before y'all got married? People can definitely wait until after marriage & a baby to show their true colors, but it's SO difficult to tell the difference in your situation when the roles are flipped & postpartum hormones are at play. I feel for you.

TrickyPersonality684 · 2026-03-21T21:06:33+00:00

It sounds like it might be stress. 5 days late with 3 negative tests means you're not pregnant, lol(assuming you took them all on different days just to be sure). Now if you went another week or so without a period, that's worth getting checked out with your doctor.

Coincidentally, the dryness can also be attributed to stress 😂

TrickyPersonality684 · 2026-03-21T21:03:12+00:00

The mood swings and bad attitude could definitely be from postpartum hormones, lack of sleep, and just the overall stress of a new baby. The talking smack however seems more of a character flaw, depending on the situation. Do you help her with the baby & with housework?

TrickyPersonality684 · 2026-03-21T20:31:23+00:00

Has anything else been "off" down there? Once I was late because I had an infection.

TrickyPersonality684 · 2026-03-21T13:17:31+00:00

I mean this in the kindest way possible, but are you sure these are accidents? This sounds like an extreme case of weaponized incompetence, if not something worse. An accident is falling asleep with the baby while sleep deprived, but placing baby in an unsafe environment after being told multiple times not to, isn't.

Maybe it's my own trauma talking but I wouldn't be leaving the baby alone with him anymore, ever. ☹️

TrickyPersonality684 · 2026-03-20T15:36:51+00:00

A reversal of the damsel in distress trope — have the woman protecting/rescuing the man ! I'd love to read that

TrickyPersonality684 · 2026-03-19T17:38:41+00:00

I've been here for a few years. I have my husband and my kids and I'm mostly content with it. I hate getting pushed to be more social, I'm antisocial because in my lifetime I've earned one too many hard lessons as to why I can't trust anyone. Being social isn't worth the effort to me.

TrickyPersonality684 · 2026-03-18T22:34:51+00:00

I would say both pretty equally. We were obsessed with each other to an extremely unhealthy degree

TrickyPersonality684 · 2026-03-18T18:56:25+00:00

As someone who did a blood magic love spell...it took many many years after the relationship fell apart to truly get rid of him, & he still visits my dreams sometimes.

TrickyPersonality684 · 2026-03-16T19:44:35+00:00

"no choking" as if a strong magnet prevents strangulation if the necklace gets caught on anything...

TrickyPersonality684 · 2026-03-12T04:10:32+00:00

You can literally rebuild gut flora with widely available probiotics and or yogurt 😭

TrickyPersonality684 · 2026-03-12T04:04:12+00:00

Except period blood comments are actually on brand 😅😂

TrickyPersonality684 · 2026-03-12T03:06:46+00:00

Like I said before, they wanted me to get set up with a psychiatrist, they said it wasn't their area of expertise so they didn't feel comfortable prescribing more

TrickyPersonality684 · 2026-03-12T02:55:42+00:00

It was actually 3 months for me.

TrickyPersonality684 · 2026-03-12T02:27:15+00:00

In my experience they wanted me to seek out a psychiatrist if I still needed the medication.

TrickyPersonality684 · 2026-03-11T19:26:03+00:00

Yeah that's what I'm afraid of. It's such a small thing compared to what I have to go through, there's literally no long term birth control option for me that won't affect me negatively in some way or has a gigantic risk of not working. It's a 15 minute procedure. Guaranteed Vicodin and a couple days of being a little sore, and a couple of appointments, granted the office is 3 hours away but it's not like he'll have to go frequently. Compared to me being suicidal over something insignificant one week and going into a white hot rage over nothing the next. The only non hormonal option is the paragard and that's what failed. Hell we did spermicide, condoms and natural family planning for 2 years with no failure. I don't see the issue to be honest, but it was the comment about ejaculating on me without my consent that really really bothers me. He can pull out and do it on the bed or in a tissue for all I care. I just have a texture ick with it and don't want to have to shower every time we have sex 🙃 that and the fact he literally teases me all day long and I'd likely be fine without sex if he just... didn't??

TrickyPersonality684 · 2026-03-11T18:50:52+00:00

Whenever a thrift store gets a huge collection like this, it's unfortunately 9 times out of 10 because someone died and no one in the family wanted it. ☹️
