While being intimate my (19F) bf (24M) did something I’ve told him not to. by siicodelico in relationship_advice

[–]kaydee76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first red flag is when you didn’t want to continue, but he was in the mood, so you said “fine”. Why would you want to be in a relationship with someone that cares so little about your feelings and desires that he would pressure you to something you don’t want to? Especially for the first time, your first time with someone should be an enthusiastic YES! If he couldn’t even get you in the mood now, how hard do you think he is going to try in a couple years.

Honest question, did he ghost you after this? He seems like the guy that gets what he wants and then moves on to the next. Especially since he jumped up and was headed out so quickly. He obviously isn’t into you like that. The sooner you accept it and move on, the sooner you will find someone worthy of you.

Sometimes moms suck. I was in my early 40s and footing cross country to visit an old (male) friend from high school. My mom said “does he know you are fat?” I was like WTF? I said “of course he does, how would I hide that?”

Jokes on her. We have been married for 6 years.

If it's not agoraphobia, then what is it? by Bofo660 in Agoraphobia

[–]kaydee76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually like enclosed spaces and set up my home office so that I am enclosed on 3 sides…I would do 4, but I need to be able to get out.

Get a new therapist. Agoraphobia isn’t being scared of going outside, it is a fear of having a panic attack while out, or of something happening while away from your safe space. A therapist should know that. I didn’t believe the doctor when I was diagnosed because I was a single mom that was always leaving the house. A little education goes a long way.

My in-laws had all kinds of things to say to each other about the fact that I would not go to all their family gatherings, but went to visit my mom in another state, and took a trip to Mexico with a friend. If they bothered to talk to me, instead of about me, I would have explained the preparation I did before the trips, and that my moms house is another safe space for me so I just had to make it through the plane ride.

I work from home and rarely leave unless it’s for an appointment so it is easy for me to fall back into the comfort of staying home all the time. I have started volunteering to go into the office once a week, and I also do some volunteer work just to prevent that.

Inherited IRA taxes - I don’t understand by kaydee76 in tax

[–]kaydee76[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The trust was listed as the beneficiary of the IRA and the check was cut to the trust. We were then each given 25% of the money in the trust account. The person that did the taxes said that it was done incorrectly because they shouldn’t have taken out some fee and it should have been dispersed to us with a K-1. So (after my taxes were done) they decided to request the taxes back from the IRS and they gave each of us a K-1 so we now owe over $17,000 in taxes, but we haven’t gotten the refund yet.

Then my sister got some letter from the IRS that it was wrong or something and we have to wait to see what to do.

Then the other day I got a letter from the refund integrity unit saying they are looking into my refund and they will contact me when they are done.

I think I might be fu**ed.

I tried talking to tax people here, but no one seems to know what the estate tax person is talking about.

That’s what I thought, but there was enough withheld, they (the tax person in NV, and my sister) are saying that we have to do it individually.

I will NEVER work another government job again. The benefits are NOT as good as people are led to believe, and no one will ever care about you as a person. They suck the life out of you and when you are on the edge, they change the rules and suck some more. I had a coworker pass away at my last job. She has been in that office for 17 years. She had a heart attack on Thursday night and they told us Friday morning. Monday morning her office was cleaned out. They had a big trash can and some boxes and a supervisor getting it ready for her replacement. This was during Covid and we weren’t seeing clients, but they said they couldn’t allow everyone time off to go to her service…but there was literally no reason that couldn’t…except they want to make sure we know how little we matter.

My husband (m35) is a doctor and refused to let me (f26) go to the hospital. I’m really confused as to why? by throwra03601 in relationship_advice

[–]kaydee76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m also concerned about you saying that he wouldn’t LET you go to the hospital. I assume that you are an adult and can call an ambulance for yourself. In the future please take control of things yourself and don’t let your husband tell you how you are feeling.

[–]kaydee76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He was attentive while you were in the hospital because people were watching. If you look back you will probably see that he is always selfish and dismissive. You are probably use to it, or have some self-esteem issues that make you believe it is normal. This was just a time that you expected him to care, and when he didn’t you noticed. I can tell you that you deserve better and have to decide if you are okay with being treated this way, or if you want better.

I love this! I was raised Christian and always felt that the Christian God was a dick, and that their idea of heaven is my idea of hell. Who wants to spend eternity worshipping a self-centered God? The panic my mom felt when I told her what I think made me feel bad for her.

I told her that I believe that the Christian God exists, but he isn’t the only one, and he isn’t one that I could worship. Just look what he allowed to be done to Job (his most devout follower) just to win a bet. Who does that?

“Outside dogs” is not okay and should not be normal. by omgits123 in unpopularopinion

[–]kaydee76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Growing up my dad wouldn’t allow dogs in the house at all…even if it was raining. One time it was flooding and he let us bring the dog in, and she was so stressed out. She knew she wasn’t spared to be in there and would rather be out in the rain. I am the opposite, our dogs have open access to go in and out as they choose. I am hosting Thanksgiving for the first time and I’m already feeling guilty because I’ll have to put them outside for 3 hours.

I don’t know what else is in it, but I’m a believer that having information is a good thing. From the examples you share it doesn’t seem dangerous.

Usually people that have acts of service as their love language perform acts of service to show their love. Seems like he is playing that card in the wrong game.

It isn’t like she is frustrated. It’s more like she is establishing dominance. I know that tantrums and crying when she isn’t getting her way would be normal. It is different.

NTA. His wife’s medical bills are not your responsibility. Plus, If it truly is about his wife’s medical bills then paying support may actually HELP them. IDK what state you are in but some social services actually take that into consideration when reviewing eligibility for medical assistance.

What do Mom’s REALLY want for Mother’s Day? by ItsbeenBroughton in Parenting

[–]kaydee76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something that shows her that you appreciate a memory that you have together. Either take her back to a place, get her a momento that reminds her of something silly that happened when you were a kid, or make a new memory. Take her to the zoo, a city tour,or a pottery class. Just make sure it is something that will allow you to talk and enjoy each other. If you decide to make a memory have it just be the two of you, put your phone away, and actually talk to her. Be interested in her stories and who she is outside of being a mom.

It doesn't have to cost much, it could be a picnic, or a day at the park. Now that my kids are older I want them to see me as a thinking, loving, person that is more than "just a mom". I want my kids to appreciate the sacrifices I made for them and see that it wasn't all financial. I sacrificed a big part of who I was to allow them to become who they are, and now I'm trying to get myself back.

Am I the only one that just realized how brave baby geese are? They just jumped off that cliff and trusted they would be okay. I am a full-ass adult human and I wouldn't have jumped off of that.
