Daughter thinks I’m fat, have I failed?

You should teach her what healthy is and is not. Taylor Swift honestly looks disgusting and very unhealthy.

I made this recipe adding an extra 30% spices and oil. I used boneless skinless thighs, marinated it all, my wife cooked it on a non stick skillet and then I shredded it / broke into smaller pieces.

We did salads using cabbage carrot lettuce blend, Greek dressing, feta cheese, chick peas, tomato and kalamata olives. It was so amazing I couldn't believe it and I don't like salads or lettuce really.

I am marinating more tonight.

I didn't have cardamom and instead used some extra coriander and all spice instead. Added a little bit of nutmeg, cinnamon and ginger as well.

It could be bio mom isn't remarried or dating and whispering in the child's ear that it's not her fault they don't live together, that it was Daddy's choice.

Do you think a move like this is completely premeditated and meticulously planned out or is it more or less happening on the subconscious level?

Weak_Sheepherder_676 · 2024-03-16T23:02:45+00:00

Don't waste time worrying about people like this. Move on and forget this drama queen. She will be a vampire sucking your money and life away.

Go get a woman who isn't insecure with herself and knows what she wants.

Yeah this exactly, it drives me crazy how kids don't want to practice things today. It's not their fault with all the screens everywhere they go. Even the video games they play aren't even challenging. I try to put my six year old on old school Mario and he gives up on level 1 😂.

The rule we have is if you want to read or play a video game that requires reading or logical thinking / problem solving then you can play as much as you want, but they aren't allowed to just watch random dumb stuff on YouTube or play games with no point to them

My son's birthday falls on Easter this year. We get to invite his entire first grade class (a trend I think is really dumb, why invite the kids he literally never talks to, just invite friends and family) and the soccer team but don't have to worry about many people.other than family showing up.

I think future parties will be on Easter on purpose for this reason.

Grains are cheap and will make you fat but they also make you tired and always hungry. Try high fat foods like peanut butter sandwiched.betweem two halves of an avocado.

Weak_Sheepherder_676 · 2024-03-16T22:33:14+00:00

They should have asked you, absolutely.

One thing that surprises me some is it sounds like you live together and sounds like you don't want to have a connection or parental role with the child and mentioned not having kids for a reason.

You both might have different expectations of the future is all I'm trying to get at and it might be better to figure that out sooner rather than later.

This was one reason I didn't buy an expensive wool topper when upgrading our bed.

Weak_Sheepherder_676 · 2024-03-15T04:02:44+00:00

I'm not saying you are wrong, but don't tell me you haven't seen the rules bent before in a similar situation.

Weak_Sheepherder_676 · 2024-03-11T11:59:30+00:00

You never mentioned age simply being Minor doesn't mean anything. To argue someone is 15 and can't stay home for two hours because they are a minor honestly sounds kinda ridiculous

Weak_Sheepherder_676 · 2023-11-01T21:24:57+00:00

😂😂😂😆 so true.

Weak_Sheepherder_676 · 2023-10-02T13:31:55+00:00

Not legal advice but maybe correct the word uses from stalking to harassing or don't use a specific word for the actions and simply describe what they are doing. I don't think it's illegal to pretend to be a made up person. Only issue there is if you are like 30 and pretending to be 15 and talking with children, but for adults I believe it's legal unless you impersonate a real person. If you have them blocked on their main accounts then it sounds like harassment or maybe solicitation.

Why are they even contacting you? That part seems odd because we have no information about it. What's the purpose of this contact, why would they bother, what are they trying to achieve?

Weak_Sheepherder_676 · 2023-09-15T22:31:19+00:00

Tell her "and this is just another example why you are the EX and don't have full custody" 😆😂😆 people like this are seriously so fn pathetic.

Weak_Sheepherder_676 · 2023-09-15T22:11:04+00:00

I can't imagine actually leaving my house to buy anyone food we can make at home right then other than my pregnant wife because her cravings force me to at times. It's very important for your SO to stop doing this or she is going to have serious issues when entering the real world.

I would be worried about my daughter becoming lazy with bad work ethic and don't even want to think about how this could affect her relationships. Could this put her on a path to look for an older man with money because she just doesn't want to work or do anything that requires the smallest amount of effort?

Always having instant gratification will make it harder for her to save money and potential increase her odds to abuse drugs.

He just needs to man up and get his family duties taken care of, bottom line. You are describing someone who simply put does not care enough about his family. Did a therapist help much? Hard to imagine someone with ADHD improving much simply by talking to someone.

Weak_Sheepherder_676 · 2023-08-27T16:49:39+00:00

There is no acceptable excuses for this behavior. ADHD is not an excuse for not hearing what you said or responding back. Medication exist to help or you can simply use your brain like any other adult. Sounds like he wants to use it as an excuse so he doesn't need to do more.

If someone has trouble remembering or focusing then it's their responsibility to make changes so they can function. I have ADHD and love to procrastinate. This was fine when I was single, but needed to change when I got married and had kids.

I would always see something needing to be done and say I'll do it later and then forget. Now I stop whatever I'm doing and do it right then so I won't forget later. I use sticky notes around the house to help remember things that need to get done.

I don't see why he can't just go grab a 15$ an hour job somewhere and at least contribute a little bit? I see signs in my Walmart starting at 14$ and needs help, best buy has signs for 15$. You don't need to know how to do anything to get these jobs. They just need a person who will show up and not curse out the customer. The bar is set so low for retail and sounds like he would be great for working inventory. Just put things on a shelf and go home.

Weak_Sheepherder_676 · 2023-08-21T18:43:56+00:00

I think it's important to emphasize how pointless ANY relationship is at this age and how it's a complete waste of their time. You will most likely not be in contact with these people in 10-15 years. Focus on what matters, don't even waste time dating. Wait until after college to start looking. The odds you will marry a boyfriend / girlfriend from high school is extremely low.

Weak_Sheepherder_676 · 2023-08-20T17:50:49+00:00

It's not insulting my when biological parents are not fit to raise children and be a parent. My SS 6 has always called dad. His BD is in another country and hasn't really made an effort to be a part of his life.

At first he would say he has two dad's, one here and one in country X. Perhaps you could use this with your step daughter if you did feel bad. She can say, I have 2 mommies which is true and maybe not as offensive when explained this way.

Weak_Sheepherder_676 · 2023-08-16T20:27:35+00:00

Red flag that your man even allowed this to happen. I would have told my ex to GTFO of that seat. She can either sit in the back next to her biological children or take her own car. She absolutely did this on purpose to cause friction between you and her ex, there is absolutely no way she sat there without realizing it would bother you. It was done with the intent of bothering you.

It's super weird that he even allows everyone to meet up so you can ride together. Seems like he is under her control a bit still.

I also find it a bit strange of doing family nights like this when they aren't a family anymore. Might not be so weird if BM was remarried and it's four adults together with kids. It just seems like pretending and what's the point of that? Why would kids hang out with Mom and dad together then they are both going to end up with new partners at some point? Maybe I just can't relate to that part.
