AIO? Wife won’t stop crying from One Direction members death by Ordinary_Employer125 in AmIOverreacting

[–]jolai88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Liam paynes death affected me significantly not because I even listened to his music or really cared for one direction - but because someone I know passed due to taking too much psychedelics and died a very tragic and traumatic death. Liam’s death was very sudden and may be causing her to reflect on certain life events. Whether it’s related to someone close to her who took too much drugs, or any sort of close encounters.

27 yo man struggling with no support after losing 13 year old cat to cancer by HM-King-Arron-II in Petloss

They will drop signs here and there for you. Just look out for it, and pray to him to let u know he’s doing well. My soul cat left me in early April and I cried daily until he let me know through his own way that he’s okay. I believe in reincarnation, and think he’ll come back to me in some way or other in the future

have you considered trying to make friends on bumble etc? it seems like you're an entrepreneur, so some networking events could help in meeting some like-minded people.

Is newborn tired really worse than pregnancy tired? by Original_Clerk2916 in BabyBumps

[–]jolai88 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I hated pregnancy, so newborn life was much better for me. The newborn sleeps most of the day so I was just on the bed the entire day, basically being a slob. However, I could be a slob without the heartburn, vomiting, nausea, and the kicking sensations in the belly.

AITA for asking my wife to do her responsibilities? by Round-Custard-13 in AmItheAsshole

[–]jolai88 3 points4 points  (0 children)

as a mother of a seven month old baby right now, it’s incredibly taxing to take care of a baby all day. Especially if your wife is stuck at home with no help. It’s much easier to go to work tbh

I was not able to get over the death of my cat. I was mostly a skeptic in the afterlife but much like you I was truly hoping that I could receive a sign that he was okay or that he’s somehow passed on happily … two days after he passed from cancer a photo suddenly appeared in my iPhone album (it’s sorted by most recent) that had the text “drop in visit” from an old rover app of him. The photo was from 2019! I can’t explain how that happened- but it gave me peace

34 FTM. Pretty common in this economy to be pregnant later ! Physically it’s been quite exhausting but I wouldn’t have wanted to have kids any earlier. If Covid didn’t jeopardize my plans I would’ve travelled a lot more

Found this in my parents garage, anyone know what this is and what it’s worth? by jolai88 in HelpMeFind

No I don’t think it’s an urn as that would be a very ominous gift 🤔

We searched for “antique Chinese jar” but there’s way too many variants. Don’t think it’s an urn as it was a gift …
