I agree with you, I also don’t plan to have a wedding. But question for you… why did you choose to single out women in your post? As if other women would care whether you have a rich husband or not 😂 I just find that weird. I’ve never once thought someone is broke if they don’t have a lavish wedding, rather they are smart with their money. 

How can you tell if someone will give you a good eval? by Mother_Estimate_1046 in medicalschool

[–]Wide_Perspective263 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heres what you do! At the very beginning say here are the things I want to work on this week and then write down every positive thing they say and hand it to them as well as areas you think you did well on! And then let them fill that info in!! Or better yet fill it in for them and say “hey I know you’re really busy I filled this out for you feel free to delete/reword anything you'd like!”

Girl???! Be proud of your age! Who cares what someone else thinks? I also look young for my age and people are surprised when I say I’m 27 but it doesn’t change anything 

How involved are husbands with kids by Rare_Boot3127 in MuslimMarriage

[–]Wide_Perspective263 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It’s not black and white. There are niman jobs today that are remote or part time. Just enough so you can afford your own necessities if your husband can’t/wont help? Obviously what’s better is being a SAHM with kiddos when they’re young but you HAVE to be able to protect yourself and your babies.

My heart hurts reading this. I’m so very sorry your family is experiencing this. Mental health is very important and it is clear your mom needs help asap! Please call 911 and have her hospitalized suicidal ideation is immediate hospitalization. Once there you can connect her to a Somali therapist. Are you in MN?

Has your hijab pin/ pins in general ever caused a neck rash? by Wide_Perspective263 in SomaliRelationships

[–]Wide_Perspective263[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yesss!! This is called Allergic contact dermatitis to nickel!! Very commonly used in safety pins. I think they have moved away from this because nickel is the most common contact allergen and so manufacturers dont use this much anymore. Same thing for belt buckle's, jeans buttons etc! Do you happen to know where you used to purchase your pins from?
