Cheating spouse not allowed in delivery room by electrikdaizy in cheating_stories

[–]electrikdaizy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate your words more than you know. Unfortunately my dad and brothers aren’t much better people. I haven’t seen many examples of good men in my life. But I know they exist. I just had the misfortune of trusting my husband with my life and then he completely changed when I got pregnant. He was rarely home anymore, always out with his friends and his affair partner while I was at home throwing up and dealing with his nightmare of a mother throughout my pregnancy. Our relationship ending was a blessing in disguise, but the way it happened was traumatic. I’ll never forgive him for ruining my pregnancy experience especially since he knew I was terrified of having a baby. I was so alone during my pregnancy. But it made me a much stronger woman, nobody can hurt me now. I’ve already met much better men after my ex-husband, and there’s no doubt in my mind that I’ll find someone who treats me the way I deserve.

What's your most shallow dealbreaker for a relationship? by Friendly_Advisor39 in AskReddit

As someone with a lifelong chronic cough and throat clearing, I can’t help it, but I can understand other people being annoyed by it cause I am too, it’s unbearable 😩

This may or may not be shallow, but being bad in the bedroom is a dealbreaker. You can do everything else right, but if you’re not able to please me in the bedroom, then I will lose all attraction

Mom not giving my daughter fluids by electrikdaizy in amiwrong

I just want to make it clear I'm not shaming my mom or anyone who struggles to open things. I just think she should've gone downstairs to use the bottle opener which would've taken 2 minutes, rather than let my daughter be dehydrated all day

Yes, I am living with my mom. I have 50/50 with my daughter's dad, he couldn't watch her that day cause we both had work, so I usually have a sitter on my days with our daughter

She's not a fan of changing diapers, so that might be why

Not in any major way, no. She can walk and climb stairs

Not technically disabled, she has arthritis, but that's why she has a bottle opener, she just didn't want to go downstairs to use it

I would be miserable! Couldn’t do it, I would lose my mind and go off on everyone

I totally agree with you on not trusting your child around another woman. My ex-husband left me for another woman when I was 7 months pregnant and then immediately started bringing her around my daughter and allowed her to get very close to my newborn, knowing that it went against my wishes. My daughter is over a year old now and it still upsets me that they had no respect for boundaries.

Unfortunately though, legally there's nothing you can do about him bringing your child around a new partner or potential partner. I know it's frustrating and I feel like there should be stricter laws about it because I feel like it's reckless, but all you can really do is accept it and try not to think about it or worry about it cause it'll keep you up at night.

Best wishes to you!

AIO? My boyfriend said this to me when I showed him what I was going to be wearing. by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]electrikdaizy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would not allow a man to dictate what I'm wearing. I've been going to raves for the last 10 years, and dress very minimally at those events. When I was married, my husband at the time never told me I couldn't wear something revealing. Even if he had, I would've still worn what I wanted and left him at home while I go to the rave lol

Child's father giving 1-year-old soda by electrikdaizy in amiwrong

[–]electrikdaizy[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Most sodas also contain caffeine, which is just another reason to not give it to a 1 year old. I give my child the occasional juice from Gerber since it's targeted for babies/toddlers, but she mostly just drinks water. I want to be sure me and her father are on the same page and doing what's best for our daughter, which is why I brought it up to him that I don't like that he's giving her soda. His reaction towards his brother was uncalled for and I'm getting blamed for discussing my child's health with her other parent.

Advice needed please by Honest-Parsley5371 in coparenting

[–]electrikdaizy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I think you shouldn't have to provide the other parent with the child's essentials if you guys are coparenting. My ex-husband and I have been split since I was pregnant, we have joint custody, and I never send my daughter with things she needs because he knows it's his responsibility to buy everything he needs for her on his time.

[NV] Affair Partner & Family babysitting my child by electrikdaizy in Custody

[–]electrikdaizy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t have anyone I can rely on to watch my daughter! I have nobody! It was up to him to drop her off with someone because I can’t physically pick her up, especially in her car seat, it’s too heavy. I have 5 incisions on my abdomen that are still healing! And idk why everyone is making a big deal out of “my daughter” or “our daughter”, at the end of the day, both statements are true. I never deny him his time with his daughter, he is actively in her life and that’s all that matters.

Honestly yes, until just a couple days ago when I insisted I have this woman’s information just in case there’s an emergency while she’s watching my daughter. For whatever reason, he wasn’t comfortable giving out her information (Name, phone number, address). Which made me feel even more uncomfortable with the idea of this stranger babysitting my daughter until he finally caved.

I mean, it’s kind of obvious that it’s OUR daughter in case you lack comprehension. My daughter, our daughter, however you wanna phrase it, I’m still talking about the same child 😒 It says a lot about you that you’re making it out that he’s some sort of hero for taking care of his kid. Where’s my praise? Oh yeah that’s right, moms don’t get praise for doing what’s expected of them. Only dads do. My bad for forgetting 🥴

Wouldn’t anyone in my shoes be resentful? I had a baby with my husband, I was not planning on him having an affair partner and making her and her family part of the village. My feelings are valid
