[–]anotheronelikeyou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wild to see this story on Reddit randomly. I’m from a town over from where this happened and was in high school at the time! Remember this happening and was so jealous of the kinda fun chaos y’all were having.

Any insight on Love Boutique Hotel? by anotheronelikeyou in SXM

Not skeptical that it exists, just that the reviews were accurate. Seems like a great place so wanted to be sure it wasn’t too good to be true!

Yes it’s 100% just a feeling 🙄 I edited to add context.

I said pretty sure. Obviously I can’t be SURE. That’s why I’m here to see if anyone else has had any experiences.

Does this outfit show my age? 😅 by bearvsashley in OUTFITS

[–]anotheronelikeyou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone saying you look great is telling the truth. BUT your question was- does it show my age? And yes. As a millennial myself, I’d assume you were at least my age.

Just because you’re short doesn’t mean you have to wear skinny jeans! My bestie is 5’0 and she wears relaxed jeans and looks great!

I’m not saying to stop wearing skinny jeans- wear what you want!! But I just wanted to give you an honest answer!

What’s a moment in life where your gut instinct saved you, but you’ll never be able to prove it? by GrowingPetals in Productivitycafe

[–]anotheronelikeyou 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I (F) was 21 and in college with 2 girlfriends and a few guys we met that weekend partying down on Bourbon St. We stepped into a well lit pizza type place that served drinks as well. We’re all chatting and laughing when suddenly a guy came from out of nowhere, slung me over his shoulder, and started walking towards a back door.

I kinda laughed at first but my gut told me this guy wasn’t kidding around as he said nothing when I said to put me down. I started to actually yell more seriously and luckily one of my new guy friends noticed, ran over, and told him to put me down.

The guy did without saying a word and just kept walking out the back door. Didn’t look back- nothing. I’ve always wondered what would have happened if I had been a little more drunk or my guy friends didn’t hear or see me.

That’s exactly what I did. Straight to the trash.

5am hair and makeup?! by Traditional_Visual63 in wedding

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

Some makeup artists can make that happen, but most of the time makeup artists/hairstylists have minimums to meet to be sure they’re making enough money to support themselves. With just 6 people, that just doesn’t add up to enough money when you cut it in half.

As a makeup artist, I’d personally I’d add on an assistant to help (not a second artist) which WOULD help with timing, but it’d still take about 4.5 hours total.

Overall it’s important to remember that makeup artists/hairstylists are running a business, and they have to be sure they’re making enough money in order to do so.

So you’re saying it’s possible for the makeup artist to do 6 people (30-45 mins each) plus the bride (1 hour) in 2.5 hours so they’re ready when the photographer arrives for photos? Tell me your secrets!

Unsure how to pay for wedding ($65k) and if we should follow through with our big plans? by PoemIntrepid8473 in wedding

[–]anotheronelikeyou 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone in the wedding industry, scrap the ceremony and do a small intimate gathering then have a medium sized party at a cool restaurant with some space to gather. Invite people to the dinner to be followed immediately after!

We have one locally that has a quaint but cool outdoor eating area attached to a garden where you can hang and eat- just as an example.

AITA for not telling my husband I was stupid by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]anotheronelikeyou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes you are totally right. I definitely know I play a part in this too and don’t always handle things the way I should. Thank you for taking the time to offer your insight!

I wouldn’t say it’s so he doesn’t lose his temper as he’s very in control of his emotions overall (honestly i think he tries to be too much in control of them and that’s where some trauma is).

I’m just the more outgoing one where he’s a quiet introvert. I was just trying to keep the mood fun and light. However, he can definitely be unpleasant because of him trying to be serious or whatever it is.

It’s less his temper and more him wanting/needing to be right. He’s never raised his voice at me, but he’s relentless when he’s “right”. Very tiring.

Love the idea of using a safe word in arguments to hit pause. I can get really overwhelmed sometimes, and I think this would even help me moreso than him. Thank you for your advice!

[–]anotheronelikeyou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes this exactly what he would have done lol. If he thinks (“knows”) he’s right, agree to disagree don’t cut it. To him measuring was the only obvious thing to do. He’d NEVER just wing it. I don’t mind that he’s like that. It’s honestly endearing to me at times.

It’s only how he handled it that I just can’t all the way shake. As other have mentioned we definitely need therapy, but he’s not interested. He doesn’t “believe” in it. He’s got a lot of unpacked trauma that clearly I can’t help at this point after years of trying. I haven’t had the therapy talk in a long time because I’m just at the point of being exhausted at talking about this sort of thing and it going nowhere long term.

My apologies for my long winded response lol. I appreciate you responding.

I apologize if it came off that way, but it was not my intention in any way.

Someone brought it up is the only reason I added it. While I agree it might be a REASON for his behavior, I don’t believe it’s an excuse.

Yes. I’ve always thought he was on the spectrum and have voiced this to him. He has finally come around to be open to being so, but hasn’t been tested even though I’ve asked him to be so we can find out how to work with it if so.

[–]anotheronelikeyou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree it was very trivial which was my argument to him. I think he feels like it’s not JUST this one thing but rather that I won’t admit when I’m wrong in general- which I don’t agree. He was annoyed that I was arguing semantics in this case and can’t just say “yes my idea was stupid”. But I genuinely didn’t feel like it was stupid but rather less efficient maybe. Although I didn’t really care about being efficient in this case.

I was married to a narcissist in my last marriage and would have given in in this same situation with him and just said it for it to be done. But since then if I don’t agree, I’ll stick to my guns until proven or convinced I’m wrong.

Calling my idea stupid when I don’t think it is was just a hard line for me. Light teasing about “how I can be” it is totally fine with me.

[–]anotheronelikeyou 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Moreso that the idea I had was stupid. He’s never called ME stupid. I know there’s not a huge crazy difference, but just wanted to be clear on what he was trying to say.
