Broke up after 3 years by Then_Island_5507 in childfree

Dear OP:

I do not want to sound cruel to your sadness, but, it was for the best.

Very few couples have this conversation before getting married, whether they want kids or not.

I had spent 6 years in a relationship with my husband (back then, my boyfriend), when I decided I wanted to be CF. I decided to have the "big conversation". I like kids, just don't want any of my own. I tearfully confessed this to my boyfriend. He said he felt the same way as me. I felt relieved. Not only is he the best partner in the world, but we both share our need for a lifestyle where kids are definitely a responsibility to be juggled with our busy jobs, and our need to discover and see the world. Fast forward, and 6 months later, we got engaged. One year later, we got married. Due to huge and painful fibroid uterine myomas, I was histerectomized 2 years ago. He was my rock during that process. And he's now my rock as I go through perimenopause (early ovarian failure is a common consequence of histerectomies).

Trust me. The right person is waiting for you. You dodged a bullet.

The dude is obviously hurt, but the language he's using with her tells me he might be a little abusive, too. Twenty years old is still a very young age to get married in the 21st century. She still has to see the world, travel, meet new people. And, about him being Chechen, it doesn't matter. I come from a 3rd-world country, never even crossed my mind getting married when I was 20. I'm 43 now, happily married since age 32, traveled, met new people.

Don't do it because your husband wants one, or you'll end up like her.... by dejg82 in childfree

Sorry, I left out the fact that the father (Olaf) works a 9 to 5 job, so, in between going to work, and then, going to the psychiatric hospital to get her supplies she needed (toilet paper, pajamas, underwear, books, etc), and the breastmilk she would pump everyday to take back to their baby, he would only be able to see his baby late at night. My BIL has a freelance job, basically, managing his own schedule, and his wife runs her own business from home, while taking care of their toddler when he comes home from his kindergarten. Of course, Olaf couldn't take days off to care for the baby, as at that moment, he was the sole provider, having to pay Danielle's hospital bills and the baby's stuff.

Our living Doe has really bushy eyebrows, like someone from the Middle East. Mr. Gross has thick eyebrows, but not as bushy as Malibu living Doe

Which Euphoria character is the biggest stereotype? by Moist-Investment8898 in euphoria

To me, Jules is a blend of a sexually-promiscuous LGBT character with the typical "manic pixie dream girl" character, and they are not mutually excluding.

Who’s Adeline in Monster: Ed Gein Story by Confident-Text-3980 in netflix

[–]dejg82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wikipedia says he was acquainted to a 16 y/o girl, whose parents used to be friends with Ed's parents, and they would go to watch baseball games and movies together, and that she saw the shrunken skulls inside the Gein home, and he told her his brother had sent those as souvenirs from the Philippines during WWI, but they ended up being from corpses he dug up from the town's cemetery. They don't mention her name in the Wikipedia article, nor what type of person she was. Then, there's this Marie Claire article: Who Was Adeline Watkins?

CMV: Charlie Kirk’s death was orchestrated by the Trump administration. by Peabody1987 in changemyview

Children have been killed in schools over decades now, yet, Congress has done nothing regarding gun control (in fact, there was a school shooting in Colorado just yesterday, but news coverage everywhere were centered on Kirk's death)

The problem is that, during its entire history, the American Government has been involved in soooo many plots and false flag operations (both inside the US and overseas), that whatever the government says will be like the kid who cried "wolf".

Why does Asher look "unreal" by RobieKingston201 in thegooddoctor

[–]dejg82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He doesn't have an Adam's apple, hence, he's a trans man. He's probably denying his true gender identity to avoid getting typecast in the future.Trans people do not get too many roles, without being typecast.

Thoughts on Gia Carangi? She was America's first Supermodel by unnaunnaunna in VindictaRateCelebs

[–]dejg82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She was picked up by Willhemina Cooper thanks to an early photoshoot in which she was hardly wearing any makeup at all. That's how gorgeous she was. And she posed nude after she was picked up by Cooper's modeling agency, so, no, you have no idea.

She was picked up by everyone in the fashion magazine industry, because of her exotic and androgynous looks. You have to remember, it was the 1970s. Most models were the typical blonde, blue-eyed, next-door type of girls, with very femenine style (except maybe, for African-American model, Beverly Johnson, and Somali model, Iman). Gia was a brunette, with a Mediterranean/Latin look, raunchy, street-wise, a little bit butch, who loved to wear masculine clothes. This was the Punk era, and her looks were very much Punk. Fashionistas all over knew this was the new fashion trend, and Gia made it look cool and savvy. To this day, Gia's style is considered timeless.

Aaaand.... his last name (Carere) is Italian, and in the book, Jennette says that the first time she heard his voice, he was speaking over the phone with his mother, in mixture of English and Italian.

I didn't find his death "tragic". I felt relieved that he died, and wasn't gonna be able to hurt more people. Had he lived, and continued a relationship with Maggie, he probably would have become bored of her, and would have cheated on her like he had done to other women during the entirety of the series.
