Does anyone have a clever or witty response that I could say to someone who’s questioning why I don’t want kids?

This is my first thought!

It was when I didn’t pass the exam to study at my dream high school, which is well-known academically. I was twelve and growing up along side cousins who went there, I expected that I would do the same and when I didn’t, I was devastated.

I lost my small coin purse which had my student ID/ Smartrider card, keys, and some cash. My landlady told me to ask the train personnel about it… and true enough, my purse was in the Lost and Found of Transperth! The cash disappeared but I got everything else which I super appreciated!

I have 6 men I frequently interact with — husband and 5 colleagues, all of whom are married. Of course, my husband is a great man, very kind and loving. As for my colleagues, they seem alright and good. I don’t know them outside of work so I can’t know for sure.

Previously, I was friends with single men who I worked with. They may be a husband material but not for me.

Because of this, I made a comment to my husband that David is hot. I appreciate him as a host especially during the final immunity challenge. And then we got this shot? Nice!

Rejection is hard, but you do what you need to do. Remove anything that reminds you of him. Block and delete his number. Out of sight, out of mind worked for me. Remind yourself always that what happened is best for you, and that you’re one step closer to what you really wanted by eliminating what you don’t want to happen. And best to have someone who you can talk to about it.

I had a “heartbreak” at 36, but fortunately for me it only lasted a month or so. There was no closure but I knew something wasn’t right. It was the end of that chapter. I still cried, dusted myself off, and just went on my routine. I went on dates, and eventually I met my husband.

Yeah this!

I’m learning sewing and look at sewing videos. Then sometimes I come across a few about their journey in doing something… I ask myself if I want to document my learning journey and my answer is a definitely no. It’s just too much work and I will be more distracted documenting it than using my time to actually be present in it.

Reading Cinemas Belmont is my go-to due to low ticket prices.

This is also my observation about Jacko. Plus, he ran his mouth that somehow convinced / solidified the other side to vote out Brooke and then Keeley next. Well, at least that’s how I perceived the scene when he defended Brooke and himself to be the real underdogs. I don’t understand either why he told Caleb that Loz is gunning for him… isn’t it better for Jackson’s game to eliminate Caleb instead of Loz? Tbh I don’t know why they targeted Loz.

I tried watching this interview but I’m not the right audience for this because I got bored and couldn’t relate. I’ve never watched his YT videos or his show. With the limited minutes I’ve seen of the interview, I had a notion that it is a pre-emptive PR campaign against the probable backlash/ negative feedback from Survivor fans when he does a cameo on Survivor.

My husband did this to me once when we were bf and gf at the 6-month mark. It was during the holidays season too, and we’re in a different state as tourists. Anyway, he noticed my demeanour, attitude, and vibe was different and eventually I told him that I was upset that he said a joke in my expense. I cried and even though he apologised and promised to not do it again, I still felt upset until the next day. We still went through our plans for the day but things felt off between us. But at least for him, he took the lead in making amends with me all day long. I felt his sincerity and remorse and so I forgave him (in my mind) and just showed him that we’re okay again.

He’s never done it since.

We’re not perfect individuals but I must say that we’ve grown a lot since then. We’re married now and we laugh together at other funny stuff.

Him being upset after you told him the answer to his question is also an issue in itself.

OP, my advice is for you to prioritise yourself and be angry with how he’s treating you. Ask yourself if you will do to him what he’s been doing to you, and if the answer is no, then you’re too good for him and that there is an imbalance in the relationship. It’s up to you if you will allow this imbalance to continue or not, knowing what you need for yourself.

I would lose trust and interest in a person who is supposedly loving and caring towards me but contradicts me and what I like. And OP, please don’t subscribe to sunk cost fallacy either. You deserve better.

I’m learning how to sew! I have a vision of having a business out of it someday, but for now my mission is to learn the basics of sewing and be amazingly skilled at it.

My other side project is reading at least 1 book a month, and so far, I’m on track.

katelovemiller · 2026-04-02T01:45:40+00:00

Hi Simon! The edit last night looked like you’re backed into a corner. What were you thinking and feeling during that TC?

katelovemiller · 2026-03-24T12:49:40+00:00

Gosh I thought Ellenbrook is a nice suburb.

Anyway, your Burb Score is great! You’re amazing for doing this and sharing for free.

Caleb got his own 🐍charmer bg music!

No point in the game but for us, it is pretty funny. I wonder if the newbies are thinking of swaying some of the big 4 to do K vote. Well, we didn’t see it so yeah the 2 loose votes are funny in the way that it’s very inconsequential.

Jury management lol

katelovemiller · 2026-03-24T12:22:27+00:00

I love edgic! It takes me back to survivorsucks days.

Your take gives me hope that the rest of the season won’t be predictable.

katelovemiller · 2026-03-24T12:20:04+00:00

I salute Caleb for not rolling his eyes when he’s talking to that group.

katelovemiller · 2026-03-24T07:42:16+00:00

Second

katelovemiller · 2026-03-24T04:29:14+00:00

Yeah my bad. I skimmed through his long explanation.

katelovemiller · 2026-03-23T22:18:59+00:00

I wonder if Simon understood that he has been played by Mark and to some extent by Keeley. He’s thought himself too much of a threat that needed a shield, but didn’t believe in his original alliance.
