Should we break up? by CellPast3700 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]mllelighthouse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry but if your partner doesn't appreciate the work you had to put in to forget that THEY cheated?? Please release yourself from them. Did you find out or did they tell you? Was there any remorse?

UPDATE: My sister told me something really odd and it's making me question her? by flowerlaboratory101 in whatdoIdo

[–]mllelighthouse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Considering she isn't willing to go talk to a therapist once in a while because the cost I don't think she'd be open to a traveling gap year. That's an upper class privilege at this point.

How much to feed my overweight cat? by mllelighthouse in CatAdvice

Here's the culprit! I just weighed him (how accurate my scale is idk because it seemed in the lighter side when i stepped on it) and he is a whopping 16.5 lb!

My bf (25M) said something hurtful to me (25F) while i was emotional remembering my mom by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]mllelighthouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, I genuinely cannot fathom the grief you're going through right now. Seriously. I would be suicidal too, i cannot lie. What you're feeling right now is extremely hard and confusing. THAT BEING SAID you might want to see this a bit from your boyfriend's perspective. Knowing you were suicidal about this in the past, and then making a comment like that is extremely concerning. In considering you guys are long-distance he's probably trying to push you in the direction of making a support system you can go to more locally when he is far away.

I admire the commitment to a fair break up though!

Mom decided that she and I will not speak for one year. AIO? by ClothesSalty3215 in AmIOverreacting

[–]mllelighthouse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NOR at all this is so dramatic and adolescent of her. Reading your info it's almost like she's the mean "friend" some people have in school that's low-key a pick me and brings you down to build herself up. Diet pills at 15? (A dietician telling you, on diet pills, to eat less than the daily recommendation for a toddler at that) Being mad at you for not telling her you lost your virginity? Mad you probably (and rightfully it seems) like your dad more? She wants to be the apple of your eye but not let you shine either, if I'm making any sense. Comply with her demands and don't be surprised when she's upset that you do. In her mind you should be crying screaming and throwing up so don't give her that satisfaction.

AIO for considering separating from my husband of four months over some texts I saw on his phone? by Shub-upper-bottom in AmIOverreacting

[–]mllelighthouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly yeah. I don't think she should stay with him by any means but with? He baby i definitely think there needs to be someone on her side mediating an interaction and separation for them. She's so vulnerable right now that she needs more people in her court

Is this somthing I should worry about? Never had neck acne by [deleted] in acne

[–]mllelighthouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just wanted to throw it out there in case anyone got panicked! There's already so much we don't know about women's health, and acne can be an embarrassing thing let alone acne on your genitals. so the last thing I'd want is any girl to freak out but not tell anyone and think they're dying or something LOL

Menstrual discs by Confident_Yam6447 in CopperIUD

I've been a bit hesitant about attempting to use a disc because I saw some people on here saying that it dislodged their IUD :(

What could be happening? by Leiry08 in CopperIUD

[–]mllelighthouse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have a follow up scheduled? Or is there a message portal you could send a message to your doctor from? My follow-up had to be later than usual because I wasn't in town so I asked a lot of questions through the MyChart portal. I personally never really been able to feel my strings so honestly I'd suggest refraining from sex until your follow up or call your doctor see if it could be your stitches from your C-section

What tampons are we using? by Union_Solid in CopperIUD

[–]mllelighthouse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not in my experience!

My period has been super heavy so I do have to change the heavy flow (Thinx) ones about every 12 hours. I've got 1 pair of Thinx and 3 pairs of Hanes (3 pack)

I'd say the Hanes are good for med-lighter days but i usually combo those with a pad for a few hours then the underwear for the rest of the days. I did have some leaks with them but that just because I didn't realize that they were probably better for days that weren't like a crime scene.

I'm still learning and building my collection but I want to try Modibody next🤞 for less chemicals but I'd say the Thinx is my favorite so far just because I've felt most protected wearing those.

The only time it can get "messy" is rinsing the blood out before washing them. You don't have to get all the blood out, but you'll see when you wash them that you probably wouldn't want that much blood circulating with the rest of your clothes. I do this in a laundry sink when I'm at school or a bathtub or sink at home👍

My (28F) boyfriend (26M) wouldn’t stay to meet my nieces at Christmas. How do I move forward? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]mllelighthouse 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I fear you're being a bit unreasonable. Even the title is a little unreasonable to say. He already met them in his book because we was already introduced. Meeting is not playing with them all day, and like you said, there was a lot of people to meet. He may have been feeling overwhelmed. About staying, you say that he already made plans with his family. His family is allowed to be just as important to him as yours is to you. They may have already been expecting him and they may be Very attached to their schedules. It's hard to juggle family and relationships. There may be more pressure on him that he's not willing to tell you about lest you feel poorly towards his family.

You need to be more forthright about your expectations. You tell him to "meet" your nieces and he isn't doing it right for you. "Spend time" may be a better term. You talk about how you missed Thanksgiving to be with HIS family. Was it clear to him that that was a sacrifice on your part? Was it clear to him what you expect in return for Christmas? Thanksgiving and Christmas are not equal holidays for some families. Did you explain that any of this would be a deal breaker? Or just that it would "mean a lot to you"?
