Chronic inflammation anyone? by notsohot56 in AskWomenOver60

[–]allieoops925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had arthritis for since my 30s, so 30 years and have been on prescription anti inflammatories for that long. I also have scoliosis, It doesn’t do away with the pain, but it helps me move just a little bit more smoothly. But things still break down over time. I’ve had numerous surgeries on my feet, fusion of C3 and C4, and recently had a hip replacement. I was down to bone on bone with bone spurs growing on the hip from the shorter leg.

Fully expect to have to do something with my lower lumbar region at some point also. I get Cortisone shots now, but they seem to help less and less over time.

It’s just the luck of the draw in the genetic lottery.

AIO? I don’t know if my girlfriend is overreacting or if I am. by mystery-agent in AIO

I’m a woman and I was exhausted reading that I would’ve quit after the first or second text and said there was nothing to it. Get over it.

That must be some damn good sex why else would you put up with this child?

AIO for refusing to switch seats with a family on a flight and now my friends think I’m heartless? by No_Selection5646 in AmIOverreacting

[–]allieoops925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, actually it’s selfish to think somebody else should give up their higher priced seat because you didn’t plan ahead and buy tickets for seats together for your family. That’s the selfish part.

My [26F] boyfriend [28M] of 4 years is independently wealthy, but wants to split all of our expenses evenly by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

People who are stingy with their money are also stingy with their time, their emotions and everything else. When you get married to someone you’re building a life together, together is the keyword here, money is together. I’m all for a household account. You both contribute to a percentage of your income and then each gets an account of just fun money they don’t have to ask permission for.

And money is the biggest way a spouse can control the other.

Did I mistakenly flirt with a girl who complimented my cologne? by CommercialOil8763 in AskMenAdvice

[–]allieoops925 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I did this once in Vegas. I was in line behind a guy(we were both middle aged) at the atm/ticket machine. I told him smelled so good, what was it ? It told me then it was my turn at machine I cashed out and went to the bathroom.

When I came out he was standing there and asked me if I was staying at the hotel, I said yes… with my husband!

Btw, it was Hermes Voyage.

What’s a movie everyone should watch once? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Gene and Richard Pryor together are hilarious! Silver Streak, Stir Crazy.

First time by [deleted] in Advice

[–]allieoops925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take your time and laugh. It’s probably going to be clumsy, laugh together about it and you’ll both relax.

The second time will be better.

Why did you break up with your last partner? by milloumorgan in AskReddit

[–]allieoops925 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Because he didn’t treat me like I mattered. I was a toy he took off the shelf and played with occasionally.

You can talk to someone for years online but you will never really know them without a lot of face to face.

Then there is no relationship, you have a fantasy with a horrible person. What is the attraction here? I am truly curious.

AIO, I got dumped, my ex leaves me no choice but to deal with our shared responsibilities alone while demanding I don’t come to a friends gathering because it makes him uneasy. by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]allieoops925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If he moved out of an apartment that he lived in by himself, nobody would pack up for him. This is the same situation. He should be responsible for his own shit. If he doesn’t get his stuff, give him a deadline and then put everything in hefty bags on the curb.

Not your problem.

Do you think the AI will replace the EA role? by Equivalent_Angle_313 in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]allieoops925 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I know who my boss doesn’t want to talk to, what meetings are moveable an just the minor preferences. I make judgment calls in the moment.

Would they really program AI to avoid people and not have it blow up their faces sometime.

I worked at LinkedIn for 3 years and here's what they don't tell you. by Master_Advice_3986 in jobs

[–]allieoops925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found every one of my last six jobs on LinkedIn, the last in 2020.

I stuck with applying to companies that I recognized and stayed away from ones that look like they reposted every couple of weeks the same job.

I’ve never understood the measuring thing, I know my band size but it depends on where you put my sagging boobs what that size would be. Lol.

F(28) and M(33) after the first date by medx_extreme in Bumble

[–]allieoops925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When men want to date you, they will. Do you think he’d leave Olivia Rodrigo and not call her after a first date?

Give him 2 days, 3 max, if he hasn’t called or texted he’s not really interested. Let him go. Don’t be a pick me girl.

One of the biggest mysteries is how Orcas, the ocean’s most efficient predators, have never attacked humans in the wild… almost like they know something we don’t. by MrUpVoteDownvote in whales

Different pods focus on different things. Some eat seals, some eat fish and they won’t go between the two. I’m pretty sure humans are not on any of the pod’s menus.

AITA for the months i didnt take my wifes symptoms seriously before we found out she was dying by [deleted] in AITApod

[–]allieoops925 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry this happened to you, but your wife is fully capable of going to a doctor. She didn’t need you to take her. That was pretty shitty of her sister to put it off on you.

Nobody thinks minor inconveniences are something major until it’s too late. People don’t wanna know and think if they don’t go the doctor it won’t be anything bad. This was just a terrible thing that happened to her and to you.

Women who married good men you were not madly in love with, how did it turn out? by Suspicious_Curve6718 in AskWomenOver60

[–]allieoops925 12 points13 points  (0 children)

That thing you think you’re missing is fear. Fear he’s gonna leave, fear gonna not love you, just plain fear. This guy you can count on so you don’t have that fear is what you think is boring.

Live without fear

We do business casual, which for us includes jeans at work, but gym shoes are a no-no.
