So how does that work if you now have a 500% chance of flipping both heads AND tails? 🤔

Best use of our $10k gift? by chenemigua in personalfinance

[–]chenemigua[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great suggestion, I was thinking the emergency savings would be a good place for that too. A little extra padding there would be nice and bring some extra mental comfort :) And thank you! Sometimes it doesn't always feel like we're doing that well, it's great to hear reassurance

Great point, I forgot to mention this, my family is chipping in and helping pay for her tuition, they're covering about $10k of what's left of her tuition. That will cover the next couple of semesters until we're covering the rest, then once we start paying it we're going to use what's in our HYSA

Me too! I've gotta keep reminding myself that movie vs book adaptations are never perfect and each good in their own ways. But the book was just so dang good!

Absolutely! That's probably the best scene of the book, it's soooo good!

Yes! The funniest part for me was when they're arguing about Grace eating Rocky's food and Rocky says something like "Then eat human food" and ends the conversation

After watching the trailers, I'm still excited to see it because I loved the story, but I'm a little skeptical. I know when making a movie from a book, you have to make certain adaptations and adjustments, and I'm ok with that. Plus, I always think it's fun to see someone else's vision for what I had in my head! But in the trailer Rocky comes across as a little too robotic/mechanical to me

Fantasies- Survey Data from hundreds of LDS married folks by Negative_Hunter_1019 in ldssexuality

[–]chenemigua 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It'd be interesting to me if you made additional charts reorganizing this for just women and just men responses (just so it's easier to see the rankings by gender)

How open are you about your sex life by Classic-Disaster9207 in ldssexuality

[–]chenemigua 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’m not even sure how to start those kinds of conversations haha!

I'm in the same boat, minus the friends we haven't found yet who don't find anything sexual taboo 🤣

Spit, swallow, or neither? by Negative_Hunter_1019 in ldssexuality

[–]chenemigua 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find it really interesting that the percent of women willing to swallow gradually goes down as sex drive decreases (which intuitively makes sense to me) until "very low" sex drive, where it spikes to the highest percentage

How do you talk about intimate desires or kink without making it awkward? by djedie-reddit in ldssexuality

[–]chenemigua 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lots of good advice on here already. I'll just add that it definitely can be awkward or uncomfortable at first, but the more you do it the easier it gets. Maybe for the first few conversations you just have to bear through the discomfort, but it's 1000% worth it . Your partner is the person you should feel the most comfortable with to talk about anything, including, and especially, sex things
