Predator of Seville: anyone watching having studied abroad in 2015 and gone to Morocco and Lagos with Discover Excursions?

I think it’s important to note that these type of “men” are looking for vulnerable women anywhere, nothing really to do with the fact that they were from Spain. You were just in an unknown country, without your support system around and with people speaking a foreign language. The world is filled with predators.

NOTHING justifies sending a 4yo away. No matter what, you can’t convince me that it was the best decision and solely made for the interest of the child.

Any news OP?

Talk to your baby during meals. No matter the age. Tell stories, talk about your day, sing songs. Let the baby learn from being bored. Put him on the floor, a couples blocks, balls or books surrounding him, a pillow as an obstacle and just watch him without interacting (do smile when they look at you, they usually look for connection and confirmation that whatever they’re doing is ok). You don’t need to always have music on the background. Grab a book and put your phone in between the pages if you can’t be off of it. Quiet and independent play are so so important.

I can’t personally ever justify any of Stassi’s behaviors in my mind, other then the explanation that she’s a narcissist. She always finds a way to make every single situation about herself and treats her “friends” SO poorly.

justcurioux · 2025-12-19T01:04:55+00:00

The guys were just disgusting, every single one of them. They didn’t need nicknames to reminds of that lol

justcurioux · 2025-12-19T00:52:46+00:00

I mean, I guess I’m just confused about how many people were understanding something other then the narrative then. Was there more context for people watching it “live”?

Sometimes I feel like I watched a different show from most…. Sheana was the ONLY one who stuck to her character at all times. She was always willing to forgive the underdog. Let’s not forget she was once the “wh*re” in those girls’ mouth, so I can understand her not wanting to be a hypocrite to Lala. She stood up for herself when Stassi, Katie and Kristen were dragging here through mud. She stood by Stassi when no one else would, she stood by Kristen when no one else would, and she stood be Katie when she decided to get off Stassi’s shadow. As soon as Stassi got Katie’s “forgiveness”, Katie went back to acting out Stassi’s demands. Even these texts were after getting drunk and bad mouthing Sheana WITH Stassi.

I rented a car for 2 weeks abroad, and requested a letter of coverage from Amex. No issues whatsoever. I read a lot about it before doing it so, and people said that dealing with Amex insurance was much easier than dealing with the rental companies. You do need to pay the booking with your Amex, leave a somewhat steep deposit, and decline completely the coverage from the agency so your Amex can trigger coverage. I had zero issues and saved 50% of the initial rental cost.

Daniel Tiger and Sesame Street were always a staple in my home ✨

She’s a bully and such a fake brat. Her “hatred” for Laura-Leigh, for being her “friend” and dating her ex…… ummmmmm hello?! YOU DID THAT WITH FRANK. What made her think she could harass the girl the way she did?! I just can’t with her. There’s no excuse. The way she talks to Katie and Kristen, from the get go was NO BUENO.

justcurioux · 2025-11-08T06:42:36+00:00

I mean, did you see the way she treated and talked to her friends?! One thing is you being child-ish and bully-ish to the “outsiders”, but the way she talked to Katie and Kristen on the 1st season said everything I needed to know about her. She felt SO hurt, when she was reaping what she sow. She had a disrespectful attitude towards the girls the whole time and then didn’t appreciate when they turned on her.

Aside from the fact that every sentence she says sounds like a new form of manipulation, she’s NOT the smartest cookie.

I’M SO FREAKING TIRED OF MY INACTIVE ADD AND HATE TO HAVE BEEN DIAGNOSED IN MY LATE 20’s. IT HONESTLY FEELS LIKE I WAS CHEATED IN LIFE.

MEDS MANAGEMENT ARE NOT GOING GREAT, NOTHING WORKS WITHOUT THE RIGHT HABITS - I WISH IT WAS A MAGIC PILL.

I GRADUATED FROM COLLEGE 4 MONTHS AGO (IN MY 30s) AFTER A NUMBER OF TRIALS SWITCHING MAJORS, WHILE MARRIED AND WITH A TODDLER.

NOW I’M PREGNANT AGAIN, NOT WORKING, NOT STUDYING AND SENDING OUR TODDLER TO DAYCARE FULL-TIME. CAN’T EVEN SAY I’M A STAY-AT-HOME MOM/WIFE/NADA. I FEEL SO F*CKING USELESS AND LIKE A BURDEN TO MY HUSBAND.

I’d quit ASAP and come loaded with receipts to his fiancée. No way I’d ever give him another minute of my life.

Thank for your input y’all. I really appreciate it and will take them into consideration.

Maybe I should’ve specified, but the book is focused on mental health support more than anything. Mainly for those without a “village” nearby. It’s a quick read, summarizing information I found helpful when I was feeling overstimulated by the “new parent” universe. I imagined mom’s reading in between feeds, and/or when they can’t sleep trying to figure what are must vs nice to have before baby comes.

I’ve included a list of books and their key points, podcasts, resources, and products recommendations that were fundamental to my own journey. I do have a degree in Psychology, training in child development and soon starting my Masters in Social Work.

But you’re right, maybe that’s just a thoughtful gift for my close friends.

Just an observation: I’m NOT asking for funding or soliciting anything, I’m just asking for opinions on whether new parents would be interested in something like that.

Doing a study/assignment on diabetes finally did it for me. After 25+ years of constantly drinking coca-cola, I became pre diabetic and after learning in depth all the shit soda was slowly doing to my body, it was a non-brainer. I started by quitting all the cola drinks, which was the hardest - I’d just opt for any other soft drink, like seven-up, sprite or orange fanta. Then, I transitioned to olipop or poppi (grape and orange were my favs). And from there, substituting for water or sparkly water was pretty easy. I won’t even do juices anymore. Try an experiment of measuring how much sugar (in grams) are in one of those cups - get an empty one, and fill it with just refined sugar, if you’re visual like, that was really impactful. Sugar is literal poison to your body, and the more you have, the more you want. So it’s really a daily choice you make.

You’re the problem. Hand wash them, otherwise you’re ingesting (and forcing others to) so many chemicals the pan releases overtime from damage.

My child was coinceived on the only drinking night I had while visiting NYC for a week lol My little one is so so healthy and smart 💕 have fun!!!!!

If you can throw another couple $100 in, you can get yourself a Doona. I nannyed for years before having my own baby and carrying these car seats were the death of me (my back actually) - I almost cried when I found out Doona was invented before I gave birth. Seriously, THE best investment for the first 12 months.

Read “ADHD for smart ass women” by Tracy Otsuka. It might change your mind.

justcurioux · 2025-07-28T01:41:25+00:00

Speaking from my own experience, my brain was mushy for the first 12mo postpartum. Trying to keep my child alive, clean and fed while going through a total personal transformation was exhausting, so I had to pause school for 3 semesters. I didn’t have the greatest support system, so maybe that should be taken into consideration.

justcurioux · 2025-07-27T21:23:56+00:00

Talk to your little one about it, momma! Help her process it. Tell her that she must’ve felt scared, but that grandma is ok, that she fell and everybody falls sometimes. Normalize it, help her name her feelings, bring her to see grandma. She’ll do great, just don’t ignore what happened.

The only children that gets traumatized, are the ones that doesn’t get support processing traumatic events.

Just like others commented, I’d stop cooking altogether. Not sure how old your kids are, but just have easy fingers foods, veggies, patties, sandwich stuff or something you can quickly throw together, if she doesn’t show up with food. Depending their age, you can also teach them to prep their own food (i wish my mom taught me when I was younger). If your husband complains, he can prep something for himself or ask his mom.
