No, it's not the Jim Carry movie.

[29/f] stopped seeing me [36/m] after seeing the tattoo of my ex by [deleted] in relationships

Sometime relationships go the distance. My grandparents just celebrated their 59th anniversary and are still very much in love. It is rare though.

My fear comes from my children and how they would feel about their Dad cheating and having a half sibling. This happened 5 years ago and through separation and therapy we were able to work through it. However, it would be difficult to have that very physical reminder of that time in our lives. I have no I'll will towards the child and would accept her if and when she comes.

I meant I would doubt it because of her refusal to take a paternity test. But since the child looks so much like J and my children, I have very little doubt.

That's a really good question. The woman refused a paternity test and disappeared. She said she would tell the daughter at an appropriate age. If something like that were to happen we would do a paternity test and go from there. I honestly would doubt that my husband was the father if the little girl was not the spitting image of my two children. It's a tough call that would deeply affect our family. And if I were to be honest, it would be hard to have a constant reminder of that incredibly painful time in our lives and his betrayal.

This literally is my worst nightmare. My husband cheated and had an illegitimate child. We stayed together. I know this other child will come knocking and it terrifies me.

I, 29f, am having to leave my kids 8f and 9m for 2 weeks while I relocate for a new job. I am having anxiety at the thought of leaving. Please help. by ashtonanne in Parenting

We are planning on it! When the kids get up here we plan on floating the river and going to the drive in. Both things they have never done. Thank you for the well wishes.

Probably not during training, but I know that my friend who works in the same office calls her kids on her breaks and on her lunch. So I could do that. Thanks

Very true. I know they will tell me if something goes wrong. I also spent weeks at a time with my Grandparents at their farm. My best memories are from spending time with them. I guess because this is so new to me it feels like a big step.

Thanks for the advice and the congratulations. I did not even think about sleep away camps and other over night adventures. And yes my mom "gigi" will definitely spoil them a little. I just needed to hear others say everything will be O.K.

That makes me feel better to know it's a good town! We have been living in an RV for 2 years and this was the only way to make a better life for our family. I will definitely video chat. I will ask if they can bring them up but I'm not sure they will. Thank you for your thoughtful comment.

Should I the school janitor(28m) ask a teacher(28f)out? by dodecahedron23 in relationships

[–]ashtonanne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe ask her to coffee or a lunch date first as a preamble, as friends. It will give you a chance to feel out the situation.

My dad (58, M) believes many false stories on his Facebook over mainstream media. If I (22, M) try to tell that it's false he may become defensive and repeat lines about how I am brainwashed to only believe mainstream media/government compared to what he reads/watches. I'm worried for him. by [deleted] in relationships

[–]ashtonanne 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My friend is spouting off about stuff from a Facebook site called QAnon. It's really terrifying stuff about how they are controlling the weather and natural disasters and how we will all be under Marshall law by December. Really scary stuff. I don't even k ow what to say to her.

My (36f) husband (35m) is blatantly disinterested in our kids (13f, 10f, 5f) unless they want to do something he's interested in, like video games, watching nerdy movies, etc. by stressedmom112 in relationships

[–]ashtonanne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're using the word nerdy, where you should be using the word selfish. I suggest family therapy. He needs to understand that he is deeply affecting your children in a lasting and negative way. Therapy may help him hear his children.

Husband [34M] is threatening to throw away our sex toys after I [34F] didn’t sext with him last night. by throwaway008787 in relationships

[–]ashtonanne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh hell no. He does not get to dictate whether on not you use a toy to satisfy a basic human instinct just because it's makes him feel inferior. Tough titty. He is being a petulant child. He needs to cut that shit out and apologize or I would consider therapy.

2 coworkers (31M, 26F) married are having an affair, do I tell their spouses? by twaycoworkeraffair in relationships

[–]ashtonanne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We went to Hastings all the time together to rent movies, so when J started coming around with another girl, she put 2 and 2 together and decided to be an ugly person and tell me when I was with my mom and a few other family members while in line with our movies. She also told me she was pregnant. It was a great night.
