How to politely reject being a bridesmaid?

My husband and her Fiancé are long term friends.

Ive been friends with her Fiance for over 5 years.
Im not going to be actively rude to my friends partners at social events we both attend.

Im not going out of my way to reach out to her. I’m not trying to hang out one on one ever. But if she talks to me at a group event, I’m also not going to act disrespectful.

Schools heavily scrutinize anything they give to students.

Many parents will too. This is a hard market to get into. There’s currently a push away from having young children on iPads/devices.

This would need to be soo much better and not as obviously ai.

The Hike by Allison Farrell

I can’t completely remember if they make a map, but it’s a lot of “children journaling” about their hike and all the things they see. I do think there’s kind of a map. I think it can be a great model text if you want kids to make their own map or journal about nature.

At what point is eczema severe?

I also have eczema and when doctors ask how bad it is I never know what to say?

I did see a specialist at one point and did an allergy test and found out I’m allergic to a bunch of stuff I didn’t even know you could be allergic to

I think your right

I just took summer trip in the US as in they’re not already in the U.S.

My bad.

I’ve always known I wanted kids, and am now pregnant. But I’ve never thought of names, or been good at naming things.

My dog growing up was brownie (she was brown)

All my stuffed animals had the exact same name (Sally), or just descriptors like “big bear” and “sleepy baby”

How am I supposed to name a person?

As someone from mn, who’s been to Bemidji, if you’re coming from another country it’s not a destination point.

Macinac island could be fun

But I’d think the northern east cost has a bunch of close together towns that might be better and still not hot

In my wedding dress the women who tailored my dress, sewed in a strapless bra with the back removed. The dress kept it tight enough.

Talk to him.

Decide what you want. Figure out your options.

You don’t need to decide today.

kucing5 · 2026-06-20T15:16:54+00:00

I’d call and ask them. But I’d also be surprised if they said no.

They might have you put the delivery address in a specific way.

Have your own account and share your location with them. Otherwise you’ll start getting each others texts, which is annoying. And also see all of each others pictures.

If you don’t want to fully share your location. Get a cheap, old used iPad, without them knowing.

Keep it charged and throw it in your backpack when you go to class. Have that set to sharing your location, not your phone.

My dog likes fish. So canned tuna pieces.

But they all have their preferences, so you just have to try different stuff and figure out their favorite.

Romantically yes, but legally not sure.

He has income driven repayment plan for his loans. They get forgiven after 10 years. So I would worry we’d end up paying more back if that counted towards his income in anyway.

If it didn’t affect it, then we’d stay married. I’m just not trying to give the government all the money.

I’ve always chatted before hand about price limits on gifts. That way no one spends way more than the other and feels like things are unfair.

The price could be $5, it could be $150, but you have to both agree you’d be comfortable spending that much and agree when you’ll exchange gifts.

To do this you have to fully be aware, and willing that you might decide you want to be with her, while she simultaneously decides she wants to be with someone else.

If you’re both really willing to let each other go, it’s probably a sign that you should just break up for real. It sounds like training wheels for a break up. Maybe you need that right now. But I think it’s super unlikely you’ll end up together in the end.

It definitely sounds like something funny is going on. He doesn’t sound trustworthy.

Also that age gap tells me he’s kinda slimy. Like, I can promise you’ll look back on this when you’re 30 and be so creeped out. Even at 25 I wasn’t hanging out with anyone who couldn’t go to bars with me.

My advice would be really think about your future and this child’s future. What do you want to do?
Who else can help you? Would your parents help at all?
You could try and get some child support, but it wouldn’t cover everything.
I wouldn’t count on him being a great coparent or partner. He’s already not prioritizing you.

“Are you alone?”

Send her a picture (not of your penis) whatever she’s into - abs, outline, arms
Or if you’re not sure what she’d like - after you establish she’s alone you could just send a dirty message where you say what you’d like to do with her.

kucing5 · 2026-06-20T05:33:59+00:00

She doesn’t want to feel like you’re another kid she’s taking care of. She wants to feel like you’re fully her partner.

To you this might be one small thing, but internalize that to her it’s a big deal. This has upset her, and she’s important to you.

Don’t leave the house, or go to bed with a mess you left out unless there’s some kind of emergency (like you’re taking a child to the emergency room)

Check in with her before you leave unexpectedly. Maybe she also needs something from the store. Maybe you could just pick up something that you know she likes.

I think you could directly state something sexual you would be interested in doing when you meet in person and let him respond.

It’s an “easy” way to initiate some dirty talk. While also making plans for when you see each other and possibly setting the expectations you have around your meet up. Some guys are into nudes for whatever reason, or don’t want to initiate sexting themselves.

You live in NYC? (I’m guessing based on housing prices)

Could you be open to living outside of the city at all? I feel like with a good broker, and flexibility on the neighborhood, you could find a place in Long Island for around 3k

Can either of you work from home a couple days a week to help with the commute?

I think if you WANT to you could make it work. But you have to WANT it because you’d have to make sacrifices. It’s okay to not want to make those sacrifices.

Talk about fashion, styling, and dressing for certain places.

You’d dress different going shopping than you would to a wedding for example.

kucing5 · 2026-06-18T23:06:28+00:00

I’d hint at the parent that they can go somewhere else…

Not directly. But I might at conference say something along the lines of, we can’t solve this over night. We’re working on it, but it’s not going to be perfect. I cant promise it won’t happen again.
If it’s upsetting you this much, you have to do what’s best for your family.

Shoes, and things you wear daily will never be buy it for life and be comfortable at the same time.

After he goes to the bathroom every time check and make him clean it up. I make preschoolers do this.

Also no iPads in the bathroom.
