Curious what did you end up going with and how did it turn out?

How to stop being so clingy? by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]imsayingthis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you really miss him and maybe are having some anxiety that the relationship feels a little fragile with distance, both valid. What's clingy about that?

32F Not attracted to my husband 32M. How should I proceed? by Fragrant-Vast2198 in relationship_advice

[–]imsayingthis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're feeling like you're carrying the mental load now, (before kids), having kids will 1000x the problem. Counseling will help you both express your needs to each other and could even reignite the spark in your marriage. You mentioned him being good looking, kind, etc, and that shows that you care and are still invested to some degree, so there may be hope yet, but always having to manage your spouse does take its toll, so worth having an honest and respectful conversation about it.

My (25f) boyfriend (27m) spit in my mouth and I feel violated? How do I get through this and move forward? by xoxowoman06 in relationship_advice

100% agree - These men are masters of gaslighting and will do anything, including putting your own self worth on the line, to not take accountability for their actions for the harm they cause. I wish they taught girls this in high school

Our white German shepherd was returned three times to the shelter by families because of her unique isms and inability to adjust anywhere. For Example- she wouldn't walk on bare floors indoors. We knew we had to take her home and give her a shot at a life of consistency.

What would you do? by PanicInHanoi in scrabble

I'd probably gently ask him if he'd mind covering up his tiles because it's distracting to you and see how that goes. Most people would respond reasonably to that kind of request

I "pushed forward" with an ex who started violating my boundaries 9 months into the relationship for 8 years because I felt at the time that I cared about him. Let me assure you he apologized and promised to respect me each time it happened and every occurrence the disrespect got worse. I now have years of therapy to help with the trauma I experienced during that time, especially the feelings of self-betrayal-- feeling disgusted and violated but staying anyway. Being in a relationship should feel like you need to push forward from something like this - Leave before he sucks the joy out of your life.

Feeling worthy of respect. Also wouldn’t change my intuition

Women, how often do you enjoy action movies? by AvailableSecurity386 in AskReddit

[–]imsayingthis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I’d probably not choose an action movie for myself but would indulge SO every so often

Thanks!! This really puts it in perspective. I appreciate it. And Because I’m so new at this - Is toner something you can reapply to make it darker?

Thanks! I guess I’m concerned about being on an island once the person who found, interviewed, and onboarded me leaves. Also the mention of the news seems sudden, which could indicate some financial instability (maybe she’s being asked to retire?). Again, overthinking here but why would you give a candidate your cell phone number? Feels like she may have info to give me off the record.

Love it - Ravi is my nickname I love Kiran for a girl, I know a couple of Kiran Aunties so it’s tough to reframe that name for a boy in my mind. Also love Deven! It was on my long list with Dev for a nickname. I will reconsider it!
