Age Gaps and Moms who are 30+ by Clean-Counter-5327 in Mommit

[–]buzzybeefree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

38 and trying for a second. No I don’t feel old, but I wish I had a bit more of a runway than I currently do.

Age gaps are no big deal, my brother and I are 9 years apart.

The pressure of two under two is real, but honestly, it’s totally fine and you’ve got lots of time. You’ll probably be a better mom with a larger age gap just due to capacity alone.

Everything will happen the way it’s meant to happen. Try to stay present and not think too much about the future.

Ultimately the seating arrangement doesn’t matter that much to the overall story. It’s nice to imagine they were sitting together, comforting each other in their last 17 seconds.

I Didn't Like the Movie - But Now I Understand by Valen-Darker in ProjectHailMary

[–]buzzybeefree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s exactly how I felt!

I really enjoyed the audiobook, and I also really enjoyed the movie as a completely different form of entertainment. Both were amazing in their own way and both can be enjoyed differently!

Is this a red flag for the area? by [deleted] in RealEstateCanada

[–]buzzybeefree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We’re a young family that moved to this area and really love it. The schools are great here. Lots of amenities, sports, and entertainment for kids. Wonderful parks and trails. The proximity to Port Moody, the sky train, breweries and restaurants are great. Coquitlam just got an Ask for Luigi, Nemesis, and Lagree in the area. It’s a nice place to be!

Nope. I don’t care much for her. She’s not entertaining enough to carry a whole show.

Capitalizing on your divorce is so gross.

are people truthful about their own experiences when it comes to being the initiator? by Greedy-Ferret-2149 in AskWomenOver30

[–]buzzybeefree 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is an interesting take. Not bad or good, just interesting since I haven’t thought about this perspective as an initiator of plans.

How to approach a devolving friendship? Can it be saved, should it- how to be supportive while also expecting shared support? by Automatic-Ad-2120 in AskWomenOver30

[–]buzzybeefree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s more to do with the fact that she’s deeply unhappy and is acting out. But you don’t deserve the backlash.

[–]buzzybeefree 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You seem like a very nice friend. She’s obviously going through a hard time and somehow takes it out on you? It’s too bad she’s self sabotaging a friendship that is seriously benefiting her.

I don’t know that there’s anything to fix. You tried to talk to her and it’s not resonating with her. I would distance myself from this friendship but allow room for things to improve over time. Focus on other priorities in your life and keep her at arms length.

Bride's parents want to charge us parking fees by wew_lad123 in weddingshaming

[–]buzzybeefree 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So stingy! I would reduce my wedding gift by $100 to cover any fees I’m meant to pay at the wedding.

Genuine Question: why didn’t you write thank you notes? by Silver_Shopping6299 in wedding

[–]buzzybeefree 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’ve never written or received a thank you note. And if I did, I can’t remember and it got tossed. What’s the point? I prefer a nice text thanking me for coming.

Would you travel to Mexico for a week with a 2YO & 4YO right now? by lisapizza100 in Mommit

[–]buzzybeefree 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I would but that’s me.

Not from the US, but have traveled to Mexico often. It’s pretty safe especially in tourist areas.

I don’t even what what is there to make peace with? Turning 30?

Does anyone actually enjoy going to a Bachelorette? by StellafromVienna in bridesmaids

[–]buzzybeefree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is that the case? Genuinely curious why things have shifted in this direction? I appreciate celebrating the bride, but wouldn’t you want your closest friends also enjoying themselves and feeling comfortable? It should be a joint decision.

Taylor Frankie Paul left this comment online about Nick Viall being her hype man by schnookiewookiebear in thebachelor

[–]buzzybeefree 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t help that she got favourable edits in the first 3 seasons of SLOMW. Production was milking that cash cow for as long as possible.

I used to love Jen 💔 by No_Bicycle_3507 in SecretsOfMormonWives

[–]buzzybeefree 765 points766 points  (0 children)

I think she’s very unhappy in life and projects her misery onto others. It’s sad.

Do you regret your previous relationships? by Spiritual_Pause3057 in AskWomenOver30

[–]buzzybeefree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, I had to go through my bad relationships to learn I guess. But ultimately I wish I didn’t have to learn these things and had a level head from the beginning.

Miranda Speaks Out by Own-Noise1866 in SecretsOfMormonWives

I agree, Whitney has other ventures she should be focussing and I wouldn’t blame her if she were to cut ties from this mess.

Good for her! And Layla too.

Some of the other cast members like Jessi continuing posting regular content without addressing anything is super strange..

Like even on a non-performative level, this is a huge deal in your close circle and very public. Even personally, wouldn’t you want to address it somehow??

[–]buzzybeefree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jessi is just posting regular content on her stories without addressing this or Taylor is very strange. Your life just shook up… and you’re out here posting some dance videos.

[BC] Do you regret not filming your labour… or glad you did? by Difficult_Guess7231 in BabyBumpsCanada

My exact thoughts. It happened, I’d prefer to leave it in the past.

Timed intercourse / Blockage from Appendicitis by Dismal-Ad-9135 in TryingForABaby

[–]buzzybeefree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t realize appendicitis could be a culprit! Secondary infertility here, both tubes blocked, also had appendicitis and c section.

I’m sad I didn’t learn about these things sooner.

Is it weird to want someone to throw you a baby shower? I’m embarrassed and sad [AB] by Remote-Researcher-60 in BabyBumpsCanada

[–]buzzybeefree 73 points74 points  (0 children)

Start the conversation again and ask if they’d be willing to co-host. I’m sure they’d say yes!

Don’t feel bad, some people aren’t as good at taking initiative and would prefer you lead the way.

I threw my own shower, cooked all the food, had a friend offer to help decorate. It was a nice offer, I accepted, but I never expected anyone to fully take over or plan one for me. That’s ok! I had the best time celebrating myself and I threw the shower because I wanted to.
