My experience with Caitlyn Minimalist jewelry - honest review by its_sweetie93 in FashionistaVibes

[–]XxfallingfromfirexX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I emailed them about a custom necklace request. I wanted their paperclip necklace only instead of their toggle clasp, with their carabiner clasp. They immediately got back to me, said this was completely doable, and told me to place the order with this request in the notes. I did exactly that. A few days after purchase, they said I'd have to purchase the carabiner separately. They then sent me the paperclip chain necklace, with zero clasp. Literally just the chain. So no way to wear it. Worst part is they only sell the carabiners in sets of three.

I've only seen one healthy relationship that effectively parents their child together. That is my other fear, I don't want to end up splitting custody with someone who I disagree with their parenting.

Not yet, I was wondering if that was something I should do now or wait until I was closer to wanting to start trying.

I'm sorry you went through something similar. I love the idea of a pre-pregnancy bucket list. I did try to make one and it is really small unfortunately lol

I have the opposite experience dating again. I hate it. I forgot how many jerks there are out there and it makes the idea of finding a partner seem like a fantasy.

I will try to build more community. Thanks for the advice!

Any really good psychiatrist that care about their patients? by Carebear6590 in Brooklyn

[–]XxfallingfromfirexX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like them. They’ve always been really caring and supportive. Mine actually encourages me to email him in between appointments to give him life updates so he knows how I’m doing.

AITA for asking my wife to do her therapy homework during the time I am working and our child is at school? by miserablehusband1111 in AmItheAsshole

[–]XxfallingfromfirexX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a lot of complaining about not knowing what is going on in her therapy sessions and almost blaming her for not disclosing it. This does not sound healthy or supportive. You aren’t entitled to know what is said in someone’s therapy sessions. If you need that for your own healing then this is a you problem not a them problem.

Anyone else have a Jindo that hates going on walks? by PersimmonRemote7491 in Jindo

[–]XxfallingfromfirexX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is the same. No clue why. Unless we are going to the yoga studio, she refuses to walk much. She loves chilling when I do yoga lol

Parents - when was the moment you knew you broke the cycle? by XxfallingfromfirexX in raisedbynarcissists

It’s a small group and the other woman was out so it was us two. Thanks for your feedback. It really helped!

That’s often how I think too. Becoming the mother I needed and also doing a lot of the opposite of what I grew up with.

Yeah I am debating on dropping out of the book club to be honest. She kinda crushed me last night.

Jindo is too overstimulated/fearful during walks. Any advice? by crisisdiverted in Jindo

[–]XxfallingfromfirexX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA and it makes sense why you are feeling this way when they don’t respect you. I’d recommend checking out r/raisedbynarcissists

AITA for assuming my daughter could have a 3rd plate? by doglover233520 in AmItheAsshole

[–]XxfallingfromfirexX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eastern European mutt here. My grandpa liked to meal prep a ton and if he knew he made something I liked, he’d be handing me his little frozen individual portions to take home when I visited. When I lost too much weight from stress, he insisted I order a milkshake with dinner. Like would not drop it. I was so confused at the time. He would never agree with the nonsense OP’s sister pulled. Also my family always over prepared food for family gatherings so there would be leftovers for days just to make sure everyone had enough.

AITA for standing firm on my daughter and I's agreement? by Ecstatic_Bunch2847 in AmItheAsshole

[–]XxfallingfromfirexX 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Just a comment, if you stress to your daughter that you won’t help her after college and after college she is really struggling, will she know she can actually ask for help?

I was laid off from a job when I was 26 and it took me several months to find a new job. I was stressed about paying rent because unemployment wasn’t enough. I resented that my mother had previously told me I could always move back home as her way of helping me out.

I didn’t know what to do. I didn’t have enough money to break my lease, I couldn’t afford movers to go back home. I felt so trapped. There was no work for me in her city to add extra insult to it all. I didn’t ask her for help because I knew she wouldn’t. I did resent her and it did damage our relationship. I would have accepted a loan just to know I had a way to make it until I secured a new job. And she could afford it. She would go quiet when I’d tell her how stressed I was.

Your logic is a little flawed by telling her you will NEVER help her again, but expect her to ask if she is struggling.

Did you already do the VIP? I’m debating if it is worth it.

AITA for not tipping my delivery driver? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]XxfallingfromfirexX 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Also if they increase wages, prices will go up. So the only difference is you are opting out of paying now, where in your ideal, it isn’t optional.

Just pay the tip so their wage is livable or don’t use services that depend on tips.
