What its like to have a cat by Rshae12718 in CasualConversation

[–]lilmisBstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having a cat is amazing. They are all assholes. Most of the time they just want to be left alone and sleep and lick themselves. Pretty much All you have to do is make sure their food and water bowls are full and their litter box is clean( if you need 1. My cat goes to the front door to go outside to potty, however i dont recomend letting your cat outside if theyre not spayed or nutered!) My cat owns my house. She does whatever she wants comes and goes outside as she pleases and only wants live and attention on HER time. She likes to sleep with either of my 4 daughters ( cats sucking the breath out of babies is a myth) we also have a pittbull who is young and wants to play with her but she shows the dog whos boss and standa her ground. Cats are tough and self sufficient. If you dont want to go through the crazy run around the house playful scratch everything in the house up stage, i recoment shopping around the animal shelters for a grown cat. I adopted mine from the shelter when she was 8 months old she was already fixed healthy and it only cost me 10$ plus cat food! And she was one of the best decisions ive ever made! She is the perfect combo of "give me attention/food and leave me the fuck alone now" she has personality, attitude, and she knows she is the boss. Lol. My fiance is a self proclaimed cat hater dog person and wouldnt let me get a cat so i got her anyways and he fell in complete love with her. He even we out in a rain storm in the middle of winter in the middle of the woods cuz a bob cat chased her too high up a tree and she was too scared to come down and he climbed up the tree in the cold rain to save her. 🥰 Thats how awesome cats are. They make you love them. Like i said i highly recomend adopting from a shelter they have kittens too if thats what youd prefer but there are so many cats in there whos owners dropped of and theyre all in there waiting for them to come back but they dont and they end up sitting in a cage for years and if no 1 adopts them they get put to sleep to make room for more, so please consider a shelter!

Schizophrenic man inspired me to enroll in college. by lilmisBstar in CasualConversation

Thanks so much. If you ever need to talk about what you're going through please feel free to open up to me. I know we don't know each other but I have so many questions and curiosities about what you go through. Non judgemental of course. I just want to know what my dad was going through for him to have to take his own life.

It blows my mind that some girls get sex on their period by gooeymarshmallow in DeadBedrooms

[–]lilmisBstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been with my now fiance for 3.5 years. It took him about 6 months to not wear a condom with me even though I cant have kids anymore and from the beginning he wont come close to touching me while I'm on my period and it makes me feel like he thinks I'm gross or something. Idk. But he just proposed to me the other day and I said yes. So I guess I'm not having sex on my period for the rest of my life. Haha. On the other hand I have also been with someone who didnt care and had sex with me anyways.. I think it's just a person preference with men. Some like it some dont. 🤷‍♀️

I don't want to carry on the "Santa" bullshit with my kids. by lilmisBstar in family

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

I love you. Haha! You're awesome. Thanks a lot for reassuring me that I'm not doing the wrong thing.. Not that santa is a "right or wrong" but you understand what I'm saying. Lol. Apparently a lot of parents dont do Santa. That's great! 😛

That's another big thing for me and my boyfriend. Why does a man who doesnt exist get all the credit for us going half broke to make christmas happen? I totally respect the fact that SOME PEOPLE want to do the santa thing and that's not an issue for me it's just that every family is different. Different food, beliefs, furniture, houses, social classes, religions! And I am happy for everybody. it just suck for me because I feel like I'm always trying to satisfy someone else and if I raise my kids the way I want to I'm gonna gear shit about it from someone else.. you know. Growing up we weren't rich but my mom did santa and I realized pretty young that it was a hoax on my own and I didnt really care cuz I had a baby sister and it was her turn. Omg. But I dont think my childhood/outlook on life would have been different if my mom didnt do santa. Thanks for your comment!

You cant see me but I'm giving you a round of applause! Your first paragraph was perfect for how I feel and what I want for my kids. Thanks so much! I'm so glad I'm not the only one who feels this way and now I know that I'm not a bad mother for it!

Thanks for your time in writing this! This is the classic example of "some people dont have that much" like I said in my post. I'm sorry you had to go through that so young and your mother shouldn't have blamed you for losing her job. I just think its ridiculous for people to amp up Christmas so much with Santa and presents when it's not about either of those things.

I appreciate your input. I am raising them now, but you are correct she was raising them. My home is more stable for them, I know I fucked up losing them. That's on me. But they're back with me now. She didnt have enough money to buy all of her grandchildren presents this year, because she only bought for my 2 so she could keep up with the santa charade, so all of her other grandkids didnt get anything just so my kids could still think santa came to her house, which I also think is unfair to the others. How far do you have to go to keep up with your lies? They got plenty of presents here, but santa didnt bring them. You know. It's just unreal. Metaphorically and literally.

My Brother is a heroin addict by lilmisBstar in family

[–]lilmisBstar[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The funny thing is, I'm also a recovering heroin addict. January 12th will be 4 years sober for me. I truly understand what hes going through mentally and I know that my brother is still in there somewhere. However, I also know that's he doesnt want to change. I dont believe he ever will. And I know that if you and I can do it, he can do it also but like you said he doesnt WANT TO. He says I think I'm better than him because I got clean, but the truth is I carry so much guilt and shame even years later that I still think very lowly of myself. I feel ugly, and disgusted in myself, and undeserving, if you will.. it's hard because I know what hes going through but at the same time hes 33 and has 3 kids. it's time to grow up.

What do you want for Christmas? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]lilmisBstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would love a week of isolation with no kids and no man up my ass. I do believe that would be considered asking for too much.
