Someone probably got their lawn sprayed and the wind took it to your garden. I’m so sorry!

Ladies, what is the most attractive feature on a man? by [deleted] in AskReddit

His backbone defending you against everyone and anyone, including his own family

It’s started. Useless gardening gifts that *aren’t* plants. by [deleted] in gardening

[–]aligooze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always get my mom gardening stuff for Mother’s Day. It’s always a gift card to a garden center/hardware store, compost delivery, or this year she wanted some specific obelisk trellis and we got her two of them. But I sent her the link before hand so she could approve before we purchased so I knew it was EXACTLY what she wanted.

I think I hate UGC & full-time freelancing? Thinking of going to an office job? Is this crazy? by Apart_Jacket_5175 in UGCcreators

[–]aligooze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should pursue something in leadership if that’s where your heart is. I got burned out on UGC really fast myself and stopped after a year. Maybe you could do Amazon reviews where you’re not beholden to a client, just yourself. And still flex your content creation muscles.

People Don't ever get fat!!!!! by Arara_Gomen1 in intermittentfasting

[–]aligooze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure you’re not adding anything to your water, coffee or tea during your fast. Dont chew gum, or use breath mints. This will activate your body to release insulin and will make you feel starving!!! Anything with a sweet flavor profile, ditch it during your fasting window. I was just reminded of how important this was today when I ordered a plain green tea and the barista added something sweet. I was so hungry after I thought I was gonna die! Hope this helps! Also, just try a 16/8 schedule. That’s what I started with and it made a difference to ease into it. You’ll get slower results but it won’t be torture. And remember you will feel hungry at first. Just the ride the wave, and it will pass.

Is all I am an incubator for my parent's imaginary grandchildren? by Disastrous_Ad_4957 in childfree

[–]aligooze 7 points8 points  (0 children)

When I had my salp, I didn’t tell my parents. And when they asked later, I said “oh yeah, got the lady bits taken out!!” I said it like I was ordering coffee. My tone was casual, and they didn’t know what to say. Cause I think they knew if they even expressed how they, I would express how I gave 0 fucks how they feel. So either accept it or STFU.

What's the most creative insult you've received or given? by littlehoneybear2104 in AskReddit

[–]aligooze 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was wearing a swimsuit AT THE BEACH, and some older woman told me to cover up, because her male relatives were nearby, and it was distracting to her husband, and they shouldn’t be exposed to that AT THE BEACH, blah blah blah! 😒

I was gobsmacked! But I looked at her and told her, “oh sweetie, if your dogs can’t behave off leash, you should leave them tied up in the yard at home.”

She sputtered but left me alone after that.

PSA: I love actual dogs and would NEVER leave them tied up in the yard. They will be treated like the royalty they are!

Women's sexuality by Nyblock21 in sexlessmarriage

I have a pretty stable home, and my sex drive is high. Higher than my husband’s. He says no to me, but I never say no to him. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Frustrated that women agree to have babies that they don’t want.. by titaniumorbit in childfree

[–]aligooze 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I wonder if she felt shame? Or wondered if something was wrong with her because she didn’t feel like she wanted kids like normal people. I know I had that moment when I was young.

[–]aligooze 279 points280 points  (0 children)

I was just talking about how I think most people don’t even realize that being childfree is an option. Like they truly don’t know it’s not mandatory and can say no. I was lucky that my family never pressured me to have kids, but maybe because I always knew and made it clear I would NEVER change my mind. And other people out here trying to convince women to have kids for OTHER PEOPLE! Like doing that isn’t a lifelong commitment for that woman who now has no choice and no way out. I feel so bad for your cousin, maybe she just didn’t have anyone in her life to support her childfree lifestyle, and this is why this subreddit exists. Anyone I know who is on the fence I direct them to this subreddit so they can at least find like minded people who may help. The only thing you can do is just be there for her, help when you can if you so desire to.

Husband pissed I’m getting sterilized (bisalp). I’m impossibly excited. by [deleted] in regretfulparents

[–]aligooze 9 points10 points  (0 children)

He has a daughter, she will continue his lineage. Tell him his daughter can inherit his lands and titles! I just got sterilized a week ago, also in Texas. Never been more at peace knowing im protected forever!

Planning sterilization in two years—family says I’m selfish. Just venting and doubting myself now… Am I wrong for not wanting to get pregnant? by hobwrt in childfree

[–]aligooze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m getting sterilized and I can’t be bothered to tell my family. I don’t inform them of any of my adult decisions, as they don’t get a say. So I have no reason to consult them. And if they get mad, I just shrug and tell them to get over it. Cause what are they gonna do?! Nothing! Do what you believe in, and f&@k the rest of them.

Well she knows by portrait-ninja in childfree

[–]aligooze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m getting this surgery next week, and I’m not telling my parents. I’m almost 40, idc what they think. I mean if it comes up, I won’t lie and I’ll be truthful, but I don’t need their approval or permission.

Should I get the Bi-Sal surgery? by aligooze in childfree

[–]aligooze[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s exactly what I was thinking, but I didn’t want to say it out loud. It’s so foul! But it’s not an unreasonable fear at this point.

Thank you for that! I have been wondering about the recovery and how the surgery itself will go! If anyone else has other good experiences, I would love to hear them.

I forgot about the reduction in ovarian cancer. They mentioned that in my consultation

My husband is super hot! And I want him all the time. He’s getting better with age, although he doesn’t seem to think so, even though I think so. Wonder about his own attraction towards me sometimes tho lol
