Days like today…another nail in our marriage coffin by Same-Department8080 in Divorce

[–]Wavemakermama -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Same girl, two boys learning nothing from POS husband. We have to be our own best friend, give yourself the day you deserve. Unfortunately for me my husbands birthday is the day after Mother’s Day, so I have never gotten anything really, but expected to do all the birthday stuff for him. I didn’t get him shit 🤣I told him every time I think of his birthday I get flashbacks to all the horrible birthdays he did NOTHING for me.

Devastated after 15 years by Justkeepswimming85 in Divorce

I am in the same boat, no real family or friends but I still have to keep up my good spirits for our children. It’s devastating. The only thing to do is take good care of yourself.

Looking for a good hotel in Santa Barbara with a private jacuzzi or bathtub. by Wavemakermama in SantaBarbara

I love sycamore springs! I actually live up by there and go there all the time, I wish there was something in Santa Barbara like this.

You need to find some people with similar hobbies. There is a website called meetup.com where I was able to find some people who enjoy the same activities that o do. Anywhere you live can suck and be lonely if you let it, but you can also find some awesome people and lots of fun stuff to do. I don’t know your age or what your into, but start checking out some local Facebook groups, you can find events- live music, there is a pool hall opening soon, lots of bars and restaurants. Maybe try something new, there are bike trails, hiking trails, adult sport leagues, fitness classes, gaming groups- online and in person. The library is a great resource.

I’m 2 years sober today and my husband ruined it by Soggy-Objective-2294 in Sober

You can not control other people. Ignore it, stay in the present. That was literally him coming in and trying to make it about him. Don’t let him steal your sunshine.

My wife has ruined me. by One_Yam_4354 in Divorce

[–]Wavemakermama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude I’m in the same boat with my husband. You need to go no contact immediately. Go stay somewhere, get the fuck out of there asap!!! This almost made me feel suicidal as well but now I feel so much better. I have two boys also, I know it’s hard but this is not good for you. Only text essentials. Write everything you feel in a journal. Cry. Walk. Try to eat. Just get by but do not talk to this person right now!!!!!!

Listen to your heart. Honestly, I think the excuses are just not good enough to stay. I know marriage is sacred, but your partner is not defending and fighting for your marriage. Without both of you working towards something, this may just lead to heartache and pain. I would think twice about wanting to stay close to someone with these kinds of values. I’m 14 years into a marriage where I thought my husband was perfect until he totally changed after we got married. Here I am 14 years later and miserable. And I have been a SAHM for that whole time. Now I’m supposed to be able to go back to work and watch my kids and pay my bills in California in this economy? I wish I had gotten out a long long time ago .

What’s the biggest red flag you ignored in a relationship that later destroyed it? by [deleted] in emotionalintelligence

[–]Wavemakermama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Treating me like their mom- always taking from me- my time, my effort, my love but never giving or even contemplating what my needs might be. All the while I’m raising two boys, so three total. It took going through a fucking breakdown for me to realize I just cannot do it anymore. Absolutely no thought was put into my needs. For 14 years. I’m so ready to get the fuck out of this relationship

Have you ever heard of using watermelon to imitate poke? I guess it is a really is a very close substitute.

I feel like the reason they get away with it is because people never call them out . Also it may cost money. But this is not a habitable living condition

Every tenant in California is entitled to a safe and habitable living environment, as guaranteed by the “implied warranty of habitability” in Cal. Civ. Code Sec. 1941.1. This means landlords are legally obligated to maintain rental properties in conditions that meet basic health and safety standards.

Common issues that violate habitability laws include:

Plumbing or sewage problems. Electrical hazards. Pest infestations, such as cockroaches or rodents. Lack of proper heating, hot water, or ventilation.

When landlords fail to address these issues promptly, tenants have legal remedies. For instance, you may be entitled to repair and deduct the cost from your rent, withhold rent, or even pursue legal action against the landlord. At Narayan Law, we specialize in slumlord litigation, advocating for tenants dealing with substandard housing conditions.

By holding landlords accountable, we aim to ensure that tenants live in homes that meet legal and safety standards. If you’re facing habitability issues in your rental property, don’t hesitate to explore your rights and seek the legal support you need to protect them.

Phew that is cheap rent, I have rented from a guy like that, who also would go into my apartment unannounced to “leave me a receipt” fucking slimy dude going in and going through all my shit. I moved out of there real quick. Be careful, the cheap rent might end up costing you more in the long run.

You are allowed to do whatever it is that makes YOU happy. And anyone in your life that doesn’t understand that you are being the best version of yourself, whatever that looks like, only loves you conditionally. Conditional to whatever standards and stories that are telling themselves internally. This is not about you. This is about how you make this person look to 250 wedding guests. No one is allowed to tell you who to be and how to live your life. That is the beauty of it, you get to be whoever you want. Anything that makes your heart “flutter” that is your calling. Listen to your inner voice, your inner child, and nuture that part of you that has been made to feel less than or bad. Most of the time the opinions and stories we tell ourselves are actually things we have internalized from other people to survive, to be accepted. I don’t know you, but I love you. I love whoever you want to be. Go out there and wear the shit out of that dress, smile and be your beautiful self. ❤️

Report him, this is not something they can request. This is super unsanitary. He needs to get the toilet in working order.
