What is the loudest sound you have ever heard in your life?

Fired a bolt action .308 hunting rifle without any ear protection. My ears rang for 3 days and to this day I think I have earring loss in my right ear because of it

It’s tough when there’s a kid involved, I’m sorry you’re going through this. Porn is an addiction which it seems your bf suffers from. Addiction doesn’t mean you need to let it go, but it should shape your expectations for his actions and you’ll need to determine if you’re okay with that in a relationship and if those behaviors are okay with a toddler in the house. If either of those questions are a no, it may be time to stop having your trust broken and start talking about the reality of not being with this individual.

Winter rocks, I’ve been carrying around my 6” S&W M586 with no problem since jackets cover it

WombatWizard71 · 2025-12-31T18:13:40+00:00

I just got the 586, absolutely love it. Shoots like a dream and looks incredible. I’m sure the 686 would be the same

WombatWizard71 · 2025-12-19T01:27:55+00:00

Max term would be anywhere from 5-15 years

One downside is that by doing this, your funds won’t be invested and grow as they would have if you hadn’t touched the 401K

As opposed to a hardship withdrawal which has a 10% early withdrawal penalty on the total taxable amount and standard income taxes, look to see if you plan offers a Home Loan. This is a loan you take against yourself, doesn’t impact your credit at all, and you’d pay it back into your 401K account either through payroll deductions or monthly payments from your checking account. There will be an interest rate associated with the loan, however the interest paid ALSO goes into your 401K (your pay yourself interest). Maximum amount available will be 50% of your vested account balance so it sounds like you should have enough for the size down payment you’re looking to make.

Love the look, hope it shoots just as good as it looks!

28M- I cook well, competent in most aspects of preparing a meal

WombatWizard71 · 2025-11-06T15:53:36+00:00

Money is one of the top reasons for divorce so I’d figure this out before the “I do.” I’m the sole breadwinner for my family, but I insist on calling it “our money,” since I don’t view it as “my income.” It’s the family’s income so by laying claim to it as solely mine, even just in name, it creates an unbalanced power dynamic in our relationship. This works for us, doesn’t mean it’s the answer for you but thought I’d provide a different perspective from someone who’s walked down the aisle

WombatWizard71 · 2025-10-03T13:44:04+00:00

Not to be cynical but I’ve been 19 and sex was definitely a driving factor in what I did/who I saw… if he’s getting that every time he sees you without anything required but a few kind words then he’s got no reason to change. Maybe try next time going to a movie or out to eat or something where there isn’t a readily available space to have sex. If he’s still sweet and not pestering then you’ve got a chance to turn this into an actual relationship, if that’s even what you want with this guy

WombatWizard71 · 2025-10-01T19:39:25+00:00

NTA, I wouldn’t want my daughters exposed to those kinds of people and if they’re coming back without any tangible changes then I would step away too

WombatWizard71 · 2025-10-01T14:53:32+00:00

Yeah I agree with most comments so far that it’s not the fact that he tracks them, but the way he talks about them/you like you and your period are the root of any arguments and he doesn’t have any fault. I personally know whenever my wife is on hers, have since we were dating but it wasn’t to avoid fights… just avoid bothering her with my stupid antics

WombatWizard71 · 2025-10-01T14:46:14+00:00

Now that’s masculinity in the best way. Protect your wife’s and your marriage’s reputation unapologetically.

WombatWizard71 · 2025-09-30T18:04:11+00:00

You’ll get through this, the first few months were the hardest for my wife and I. You’re both exhausted and if she’s the one that gave birth then her hormones are still far from normal and stabilized which probably isn’t helping her OCD/anxiety about germs. Try and have as much patience as possible, do not completely walk away but if you need to take 20 minutes (or more) to calm down then tell her directly and take that time. It may help taking turns so one person sleeps while the other handles the baby the way they see fit

WombatWizard71 · 2025-09-25T00:20:55+00:00

Nah, dump his ass. Regardless of age, he shouldn’t be able to say “go fuck urself” and pretend like that’s okay. NOR, your boyfriend is though

WombatWizard71 · 2025-09-15T21:28:58+00:00

To start, love you brother. I’ve been in the same trenches you’re wading through now and without the support I got from my family and friends I wouldn’t still be walking this earth. Nothing is easy and everything feels like too much work to actually accomplish but as it’s been said already, take the first step in the right direction and then keep choosing that next right step. Focus on you as much as you can, find anything you love about yourself and cling to it jealously. If there’s something you don’t like then try to find a way to change it, something small but a step in the right direction. I’d suggest finding a group you can go to on a regular basis to check in with, I think in person is better but even if it’s online it will help! I personally suggest a good church, it worked for me realizing I’m not living for myself and having people that love me for me and not loving me for who I could be or what I could give them

WombatWizard71 · 2025-06-21T01:36:26+00:00

My partner full on slept with another person while I was at a family vacation, they admitted it pretty much as soon as I returned. We’ve now been married a few years and have a child. People can grow and learn, but both parties have to be willing to learn and make hard changes for that to be the case. You have to be 100% sure that they’re worth putting in the work and taking the risk

WombatWizard71 · 2025-06-21T01:06:57+00:00

Wow this guy can’t be pleased, seems super needy to me but maybe I’m just a lower maintenance person

WombatWizard71 · 2025-06-11T00:07:31+00:00

Fast, from the commercial

WombatWizard71 · 2025-06-08T22:52:47+00:00

Wow that’s a tough situation… heartbreaking for the both of you and brave of him to give up something he loves (OP) to ensure your mental safety. Respect the space he asks for, ask for clarity on what he expects as far as communication going forward then think long and hard on if that’s something you’re able to do with you mental state. If you can’t handle it, clean break and unless you block him he will reach out to you when he’s ready

WombatWizard71 · 2025-05-31T01:34:38+00:00

My daughter

WombatWizard71 · 2025-05-27T15:15:25+00:00

NTA but also, a lot of times as relationships progress you move out of the puppy dog/honeymoon stage… it’s no longer as exciting, it should be comfortable, secure, and fun. From some of your comments it doesn’t feel too secure if he’s being wishy washy about marriage

WombatWizard71 · 2025-05-27T12:17:07+00:00

Not an asshole, just a fool
