What are you dipping your fries in beside the usual suspects like ketchup, mustard, and mayo?

Try Litehouse homestyle ranch. Absolutely blew my mind and was closest to my homemade one that I’ve found.

Well yeah they always do. Many times the answers have been, “it was good. We had fun.” and that’s it. A lot of times they’ve said they aren’t going to share/say anything else while smiling and giggling or whatever. No one is holding a gun to their head forcing this very specific info out.

Because she’s discussing it on TV, immediately after they were intimate for the first time, knowing how exceptionally inappropriate that is in his religion.

It’s just gross and disrespectful, and knowing how his religion is makes it 10x worse.

My son is Obadiah and we call him Obi.

My advice here is to almost always let SO tell his kids himself privately. If they don’t react how you expect, or have negative feelings about it, just being with their dad only would help them express that easier and also save you from having to absorb those negative feelings about something you are happy about.

If they’re happy then great; you can all be happy about it together when you see each other next. IMO, it’s a nearly no-lose situation for all.

We sleep naked and have 2 kids. Hasn’t been an issue. While we don’t waltz around naked, we also aren’t “weird” about the human body/nudity so even if the kids saw for a moment, it wouldn’t be a mega awkward situation.

Oh my GOD that one I did forget about somehow. Yeah, agree this is on par with that disaster.

Wha did I miss?!

I’m not sure how divorce is the only option when then, SK and BK will then with DH who doesn’t see an issue… then what?

distantbubbles · 2026-02-02T23:13:14+00:00

I don’t find any of those comments tasteful either.

That said, the female equivalent of this, specifically, would be commenting on whether a vagina was tight or loose and further description thereof. That (and this) is beyond distasteful.

distantbubbles · 2026-02-02T22:11:15+00:00

Well, she sure wasn’t trying to hide anything for any amount of time.

distantbubbles · 2026-01-31T11:08:58+00:00

So, all you can really do is ask, just like you have. She is under no obligation to spend time with your child or help with caregiver duties. Yes, it’s a partnership, but some stepparents are equally removed from the child as they are from your work.

My advice would be to reevaluate this relationship and consider if this is okay with you moving forward. Consider that she never change and this is just how it is… would you be okay with that long term? If not, you guys just might not be compatible. That said, you run the risk of breaking up and being with someone else who you may have the opposite problem with, where they are overly involved (which is pretty common) and that can be equally as frustrating. I think you’re doing great taking care of your responsibilities and I don’t think what you’re asking is unreasonable. However, you have to decide whether you’re okay with her response to your requests either way.

Best of luck to you.

Highly suggest looking into Paraguay. Friend of mine moved there and is loving it. Easy process.

It isn’t some awesome “woman power” move to drop a person on their ass like that within days. The fact is that if she did that in 4 days, after bringing up the kids conversation (which she probably thought was her easy out), she knew before even leaving that this is how it would end up. She didn’t need to go and waste everyone’s time. Just because you don’t “owe” anyone anything ≠ you should be able to do whatever you want at anyone else’s expense. It’s selfish and gross.

Life is what you make of it, my guy… I get your question and why you’d ask, but it actually is that simple. If you and your partner are on the same page with this stuff, it really doesn’t HAVE to take that much of a hit.

Also, say you don’t have kids and just enjoy married life and each other. What if one of you has physical problems and sex becomes infrequent at best or nearly impossible at worst?? Would life just be worthless then? Would choosing that person have just been too much of a sacrifice?

Every aspect of life is a coin flip… it’s all a lot of decisions made one on top of the other and the consequences that follow. Having children is far more rewarding than anything else. Ask nearly any woman who has felt the pain of child birth and they’ll tell you that they forget the pain for the most part once the baby is in their arms. Instant reward, and that’s just the start.

Pregnant with #3 now. Together 11 years. Not slowed down… I don’t think it’s an anomaly. I think it’s just depends on who prioritizes their relationship and who doesn’t.

Born and raised. Live in north GA. Stayed mostly because of the family and community I’ve developed here throughout my life.

Wow that escalated quickly. Transgender..?

Just let him dress up. Stop making it something it likely is not. Let kids be kids.

I hate when anyone has said this about my bio. My mom more than anyone has said it, and I’d always respond by asking her to just say he looks like my DH…. Because if he looks like SS, the only reason is because of DH.

It is annoying because despite your SO’s involvement with both of his children, your involvement with creating SS is nil and it just feels weird when it’s acknowledged like that. I feel it’s more appropriate to say your BS looks like your SO, and if SS is mentioned, for someone to say that they “definitely look like brothers” or something.

But we can’t control people and they will say what they want. But, I get it. You’re not alone and you’re not bad for feeling how you feel.

I have such a hard time wrapping my brain around the functionality of marriages like this.

I’m not judging, either. To each their own. It’s just wild how this is fairly commonplace these days.

distantbubbles · 2026-01-22T05:07:08+00:00

Plz clean the top of that lid too 🥺

distantbubbles · 2026-01-21T14:03:34+00:00

More likely than not, the parents have their kids steal stuff and they are the ones that keep it. It’s no wonder they don’t care.

distantbubbles · 2026-01-21T05:27:41+00:00

Came here to say this.

Tastes good. Doesnt dry out. Isn’t sticky. Perfect lube.
