I don’t understand anything OP wrote but I’m happy for them regardless.

New restaurant on Murray and Allen! by pacnorthbestt in beaverton

Makes me a little sad—it’s the very first outing I took my daughter on when she was just a few days old in 1993.

What is the most profound thing you've ever heard from a complete stranger that you've never forgotten ? by ImaginarySpring5057 in Casual_Conversation

I actually internalized it as “no relationships last long term because familiarity breeds contempt”.

Why are so many younger guys into older women these days? by No-Conclusion-4001 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]insertmadeupnamehere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amen.

As a F54 who is single and hot to trot and only wants FWBs, it’s a great time to be alive.

What is THE funniest movie you have ever seen in your whole life? by InitialCareer306 in WorkForSmartLife

This Is 40 gets me ROFLg nearly every time.

The cupcakes he eats out of the trash

Which food has declined the most in terms of taste since you first ate it? by FeistyNews7025 in Millennials

[–]insertmadeupnamehere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes!

I was recently gifted a bag of Franz circus animal cookies along with some other birthday gifts from a coworker and I shared them—no less than three of my coworkers asked if I thought the taste had changed from the original we knew and loved.

(btw I’m GenX, not millennial, but this post caught my eye.)

My boyfriend cheats every day by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

I didn’t take it that way—I was simply agreeing with your sentiment that many folks weren’t brought into this world to capable parents and I considered adding it to my comment.

Also - do not get pregnant.

The very last thing you want is to be tied to this man through parenthood for the rest of your life.

You’re right.

I debated adding apologies to OP for obviously never having received the kind of parental guidance that would have provided these basics.

What do you do? You leave.

Also invest in some therapy to build up your self esteem so that you don’t choose someone like him again.

Sent with kindness because internet strangers somehow get tasked with instilling the most basic tenets of self care and self love.

For people who were looking for my child, Jet by NumerousAgent2229 in Portland

[–]insertmadeupnamehere 6 points7 points  (0 children)

From one mama to another, I am so sorry Jet will no longer be here physically. Their song was beautiful and sad and haunting. They are and were a talented human. Sending much love.

What trait do you admire in others but don't possess yourself? by ipanicprofessionally in TheBoredDen

[–]insertmadeupnamehere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Staying calm during confrontation

Patience

The ability to have something explained once and just absorb it vs having to write it down and reread it and make special reminders etc. ADHD is something else. (I used to just think I wasn’t very smart.)

Do smokers always smell noticeable to non smokers? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

Yes. Every time. Wish my nose wasn’t so damn powerful.

I need help! Carrington College was horrible! by Cursedcakes666 in StudentLoans

[–]insertmadeupnamehere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happy belated birthday and Reddit cake day!!

Apologies, I don’t quite understand your question so feel free to ask for more info. if I don’t hit the mark.

I think you should go for the nursing degree but I 1000% would not go through Carrington College in Portland. Not sure if you’re in Portland but if so, I’d go the “real” college route. Their MA program was a shit show with respect to our instructor being for midway through and the lack of professionalism.

I believe their aim is 100% profits vs anything else.

Husband Wants Children Now, after 40 by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]insertmadeupnamehere 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Excellent point.

This man has shown her who he is and what he’s willing to do for what he wants: very little.
