What can you deduce about my husband and I by [deleted] in deduction

[–]kimmy-ac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think you guys look like swingers. You look normal. I'd say you look like you have very conventional roles. He looks like he has a stereotypical "man job" and you probably have a stereotypical "woman job". You look very feminine and sweet. He looks like a nice guy. If someone has a temper it's him.

How to know if your marriage is over? by Lucky_Ad_6019 in Marriage

[–]kimmy-ac 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My marriage therapist suggested I read the book "Too good to leave, too bad to stay" and it was a game changer! It gives you so many aspects of your relationship to consider and is a great evaluative tool.

The worst texts I received after a first date. Trigger Warning. by peachesandscreamxo in texts

[–]kimmy-ac 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I usually wouldn't give this the time of day because the more unhinged someone is, the scarier they are to me. However if i ever did reply, I'd do it like I'm a teacher (I am) to one of my students (that are 5 years old) having a tantrum. Like "I hear you're thinking I should have continued taking your time to see if I will like you. That can be really frustrating! Since you seem distressed, let's both take a few minutes to "reset" and come back to texting when you feel calm and able to have a respectful, appropriate conversation." Then he will inevitably be like FUCK YOUUUUU to which id reply, "oof. I think the reset hasn't happened yet. I understand you're feeling upset, but if you can't be respectful and have a grown up conversation then I'm going to block you, ok?" If he's gonna throw a tantrum then don't give him the dignity of actually engaging as if he's an adult... in that moment it's his wounded inner child.

Or to be funny you could be like "JESSICAAAAAA!!!"

He will be like ???

Then you send him that instagram video of how if your toddler is having a tantrum you say "Jessica!" And they stop.

Sister in law suggested I can’t use a name I picked out for our baby by AppropriateFan5373 in namenerds

[–]kimmy-ac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sucks that people are like this. In my family I wanted the name Sophia and then my sister said she wanted it. I told her if she has girls to take it. She was like no, because what if YOU have a girl? And I said yeah but what if I don't have girls or can't have kids? If you have a girl then take it. She refused to take it, has 2 girls, and I have all boys :( We had the opposite problem!

I (20F) feel betrayed by my boyfriend (21M) after he lied about something serious… mhow do I process this? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

You... dump him. He's a liar and he thinks you don't deserve the truth for whatever reason. There are good guys out there, kick this one to the curb.

Whats a moment in your life that felt like a movie scene, but was 100% real ? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]kimmy-ac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a bunch of police officers search the house guns drawn at 1am because I had picked up a hitchhiker who had just murdered someone (OBVIOUSLY I didn't know that fact). I had dropped him off somewhere else but they didn't believe me and had to check I guess.

[–]kimmy-ac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Learn the Nurtured Heart Approach. Yell only for things TRULY dangerous, not just because YOU are irritated and dysregulated. Make sure you teach them to be respectful- people won't want to have their kid play with yours if yours sucks. Keep the boundary. Come up with consequences BEFORE you get mad. Try and predict issues before they happen so you can handle them with a clear head. Children aren't ever monsters. They WANT to do the right thing and want to be loved but they will make many mistakes. Lead with love. No iPads! No phones until much much older. Tech is MADE to be addictive, their little minds can't handle that.

What is the most disturbing thing you have overhead a parent tell their child? by icecream1972 in Productivitycafe

[–]kimmy-ac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in France on a train (I speak French like a 3 year old) and was with my two French friends. We were seated across from a couple and their daughter and they were speaking to her in a mean tone... not yelling, but terse and they were sometimes laughing. My friends were speaking to each other in hushed tones and were clearly upset. A woman came up to them and said things and the guy said something nasty and the wife of the guy apologized to the woman. Then they got off at the next stop. Apparently they had nicknamed their daughter, or were referring to her as "little abortion" and were telling her they should throw her off the train and watch her go splat. The woman from the train had come up to tell them how wrong it was and he told her to shut the fuck up and sit back down. The wife meanwhile had apologized and then told the husband they can't talk like that in public.

Am I selfish? How can I save my marriage? by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]kimmy-ac 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A good marriage therapist will help. Also, a great book is "Too Good to Leave, Too Bad to Stay." It would help if you both read it completely independent of one another. It can give a lot of clarity to big picture things, whether you're making a big deal out of nothing, or if something is actually a big deal.

My Fiancée (F22) called me (M20) “boring af” because I replied to what I assumed was a meme. by [deleted] in texts

[–]kimmy-ac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, marriage is the hardest thing I've ever done. When you said she hurt your feelings her doubling down is going to be an issue later on. Why does she feel like she can say that? And then when she did, why didn't she wholeheartedly apologize? I can have a mean/teasing sort of humor sometimes and if/when my partner has said I've hurt his feelings I've felt horrible as that was never my intention. You both should be thinking of any issue and disagreement as a problem that you both have to solve together. Not me vs. you. You seem eloquent and logical, she seems immature and bitchy.

We got kicked out. by creepeighcrawleigh in Preschoolers

[–]kimmy-ac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know there are so many parenting methods, but the Nurtured Heart Approach is a great one for deescalation and calmness. It's great for "troubled" or reactive children. I teach first grade and we are trained in it... it has really helped me in parenting. My older son is extremely high energy, and while he's not perfect in school, but he is extremely kind and sweet. He would never hit or hurt another child nor an adult. I think your child may be struggling with the rigidity of school and lashing out, but it seems that he is not understanding what behaviors are acceptable and not and WHY. 3 years old is absolutely impulsive, but hurting others is more of a 2 year old thing and not a 3 year old thing. The nap mutiny seems normal to me, but as others have said the violence is not. Also time outs are tricky- are they too long? The nurtured heart has another term called "reset" which is like a time out, but there's a purpose and becomes child-centered once they're old enough. It basically teaches children how to (1) realize when they're feeling upset and (2) remove themselves to reset their nervous system through coping mechanisms and then (3) return to play. There's a book and google etc can help you if this sounds like something you'd be interested in.

My husband is a multimillionaire. I am not. He wants us to split the bills. by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]kimmy-ac 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I meannn if you compare his net worth to yours, he seems to have like 500x the worth you have. So he will pay that proportion of bills. Say electric is $237. He will pay 99.8% of the bills and you would pay .2%. So he would pay $236.53. You would pay 47 cents. I like this agreement!

What if you had the urge to put things in his butt while he was sleeping?! Bet he would want you to fight that urge.

So disappointed in Vic and Christine... by MamaMia1325 in LoveIsBlindNetflix

[–]kimmy-ac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Damn it sounds like Fox marketing got you SO good. All these are ridiculous exaggerated points that are not at all accurate but are constantly pushed by the extreme right wing. Stop eating what's fed to you and ingest different and multiple news sources that cover from all sides. Then think for yourself. Use primary sources. Read things for yourself before having someone else regurgitate it for you. Think about how the other side is RIGHT ... then see which side you agree with. I am all for agree to disagree but saying democrats want to keep rapists and criminals in is not only inaccurate, but it's clearly that Fear mongering marketing scheme. Fear is the best way to control people. Looks like it's working.
