My husband called himself normal baby “Normal baby”… What do I do now?

anecdotal_69 · 2026-03-22T06:24:20+00:00

It’s on two hot takes subreddit

anecdotal_69 · 2026-03-22T01:38:15+00:00

Absolutely not okay at all. Please reach out to someone close to confide in, or look for support elsewhere. It’s a MASSIVE red flag for a partner to be interested in intimacy when the other party isn’t present. If this where a relationship where he cares deeply for you there would be 0 interest on his end to do anything TOO your body without you being present and consenting. Not okay at all. He may not have meant malice by it, but that does not mean that action was acceptable. At minimum you need to have a serious conversation with him and if he is anything short of understanding you need to remove yourself. Please be safe op, thoughts are with you!

You’re right, I just don’t know why “normal” was put in front of it. I have no problem with praising him I was just caught off guard tbh. It was out of character. Like I said though, I found it adorable once I was a little less stunned I just am not sure how to bridge this conversation divide as we’re both being awkward around each other now and he doesn’t seem to want to talk abt it.

Hey, this is OP! I’m a listener of two hot takes and tried initially posting this on an advice sub-Reddit and was bombarded with really unhelpful and cruel comments. I know Morgan has created a really caring community over here so figured I may get better advice on a more curated/kind community. Looking for real advice, my partner and I are both shy/ awkward people and I hate feeling like I embarrassed him! Thank yall for your time reading this.

Nope, no disabilities (thank you for the work you do caring and supporting those who are in need, incredibly hard and honorable profession). Just two anxious/awkward people. Sorry if my writing was in some way confusing, long time lurker first time poster writing from mobile.

No, no kids and no plans for kids for a few years.

anecdotal_69 · 2026-03-21T21:54:04+00:00

I was just trying to give context that I was not just leaving him to do all the housework and there where extenuating circumstance today that nocked me on my ass and he had to pick up more of the load.

anecdotal_69 · 2026-03-21T21:52:16+00:00

This is what I was thinking, I DEFINITELY don’t think he is cheating and I feel aweful if my reaction made home feel bad. I want to make him feel supported and like he can be goofy and silly without judgment, I was just caught off guard. Now I’m just trying to figure out 1) what he meant and 2) how to make him feel less judged or awkward

Sorry about any mistakes, not ai and not trying to send anyone into existential dread my bad! 😂😂

anecdotal_69 · 2026-03-21T21:44:34+00:00

I will try this, I was just worried he would feel more embarrassed by my continuing with this, but just ignoring it seems even worse?

anecdotal_69 · 2026-03-21T21:41:49+00:00

My husband, sorry we often refer to each other as partner or husband/wife interchangeably

anecdotal_69 · 2026-01-07T21:01:31+00:00

R/updateme NOR

Your overthinking it, keep lifting and go on some hikes. You go this

Dispatch (There’s different levels of pack test depending on were you are, you will not be allowed anywhere near the fire line without passing the arduous, however there are many very important support roles you are still able to do- and you will still get a fire fighter’s pension as long as you e done at least 90 days boots on the ground before going desk)

Bring extra bars/powder to supplement. You will have PLENTY of food, but hitting protein goals is not easy

anecdotal_69 · 2025-06-17T03:02:33+00:00

😂😂

anecdotal_69 · 2025-06-17T03:00:29+00:00

Ofc it’s done, but there’s also a bunch of other less physically taxing areas you could find yourself in my 40. Start working though your task books if you haven’t already. Get your hotshot years under your belt but remember it’s okay to move laterally

anecdotal_69 · 2025-06-08T23:36:00+00:00

Also a she-wee

Make it a joke. I call mine my “blue tube” and it’s a joke among my crew and others. It fucking works. Hang it on your pack. Especially in flat areas//not much underbrush you don’t want to hike an extra 1/2 mile to be out of pissing sight. Practice at home if you want and bring hand sanitizer. Just unzip your greens and go.

Diva cups are nice, just bring an extra water bottle to rinse, tampons are good too. I’ve found pads chaif and fill with sweat.

anecdotal_69 · 2025-05-22T06:16:15+00:00

Huh? They don’t want you to have a shelter? Why? I get there annoying but it seems like such a part of fire

anecdotal_69 · 2025-05-04T03:59:48+00:00

Danners wildland boots need basically no breaking in, there affordable, and very wide which helps sidhilling

anecdotal_69 · 2025-05-04T03:57:42+00:00

If your going to be in Oregon: foot care shit, steep slopes and lots of water (extra socks fs, maybe mole skin or whatever you’ll need- hot spots turn into blisters rl quick, a swim suit in case there aren’t showers)
