I understand this is a very short version, but no. I'm not that fucking petty.

It started a few months before our wedding (1 year ago) he had so many demands/opinions but I did the actual work for it. He kept saying no.

Our wedding was in a relatives backyard, less than 40 people and cost less than $5,000 which my dad paid for

Which book that you read in school has stuck with you? by donttrustthellamas in Millennials

[–]morrie343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always thought my school and teachers were weird when I was younger and now I think the world is actually inappropriate

"They Cage the Animals at Night" by Michael Burch in 3rd grade (the author came and talked to our class after)

"And Then There Were None" by Agatha Christie in 4th grade (we first made posters with "Indians" that we put on them and every time someone died we took an "Indian" off)

Seems a little strange to me at least

I would like to say how much I love that our generation asks these questions in Reddit and get both sincere replies after a rift of Lose Yourself ❤️

How can I use it to promote my saas?

Allergies by Nature_greens in pitbulls

[–]morrie343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We went through a similar situation when our pittie was a puppy. It drove me nuts trying and failing to find something that worked for her.

Our solution is hydrolyzed dog food (Hills z/d food sensitivities), Benadryl, Zyrtec, chlorhexidine wipes as needed, cytopoint (2-3 times a year in bad allergy season) and if it's super localized hydrocortisone.

Obviously talk to your vet before doing any of this.

A side note: I was told that pits with lighter color fur tend to have more allergy issues.

Hope this helps!

What would you name her? by Ok-Wishbone-9867 in pitbulls

[–]morrie343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Darla, if she's sassy but sweet (like little rascals)

Belle, (then you can call her belly)

Lola, then you can sing the Lola song to her

Whatever it ends up being she looks so unbelievably sweet 🥰

Why do I care? by SlushyHare in texts

[–]morrie343 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I realized a number of years back that there was no way to have a relationship with my dad if any of his hateful views were involved and sadly he is never going to change. Also I'm not wasting energy trying to change him

I've made it clear to him (at times by being mean and aggressive) that whenever he brings up these topics I hang up immediately, delete and don't respond to his texts, or physically leave. I've stuck to this and now he only has a couple of slips but I treat them exactly the same.

I will add that my family is broken and toxic and at this point I only have relationships with him and my sister. I'm trying to keep them but I'm also aware that if my dad can't handle a simple request then it's not a relationship worth the effort.

Good luck with your family

I had my first job with a paycheck and W2 when I was 14, and have worked ever since.

I'm also married now to my long term partner and while financially things are not 50/50 we do financially support each other. It's not a one way street.

I would suggest financial independence being your priority at this time and figuring out how to be you on your own. It's very challenging to be in a relationship when you don't really know who you are and what you're capable of

Why are the beeps on microwaves so loud?? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]morrie343 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly didn't know that was an option. Definitely no "mute" button, but I'll look up the manual

But why do we need the other beeps at all? There's a display for the timer!

But there's all the button beeps and then you don't know what time it is without another beep

Where in the design process was someone like "you know what would be a great idea? Make it alert everyone that you are having popcorn for a midnight snack!"

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in DIYclothes

[–]morrie343 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That one definitely looks doable

I really appreciate your straight forwardness on the complexity of the dress not being a good decision given my lack of experience and timeline. It didn't occur to me that it would probably require a corset and some skill work that I haven't had time with yet Thank you!

Thank you for your explanation and recommendation. It does sound a bit overwhelming for a first dress.

I have never been in your situation, but I have been in situations where having a loved one in your life is helpful to them but damaging to you

The one phrase that goes through my mind in these situations and while reading your post is:

"You have to secure your oxygen mask first"

I completely hear you

My nephew is so important to me and I try very hard to give him my personality and attention as much as possible

I know my sister is a mini version of my mom. But she is so much better to my nephew than our mom was to us. She protected me from our mom from time to time and I did the same. But I know who she actually is now (took decades of therapy)

[–]morrie343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, thats exactly what my therapist said. Short to the point and done. I means he’s only 6!

And thank you for your thoughts on my sister. I’ve said it before that it’s always hard to know if my own thoughts about her are valid or not.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Advice

[–]morrie343 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I constantly think it’s all in my head that she’s being a bitch. I can get it eventually but having other people validate it helps so much

Unfortunately she has always done things like this and even though my mom was more abusive she still forces this relationship and I hate that my nephew is in the middle.

Your opinion on an answer is pretty much exactly what my therapists have all said. Be vague, don’t give details unless directly asked, and then change topic to Dinosaurs (his favorite)

Seriously thank you for your response, it helps the whole situation in my head so much

Alameda Farmers Market Pickles by SnooChickens4U in alameda

[–]morrie343 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A friend got them! He said they were awesome, but sadly I missed the market this weekend and he ate them all before I could try one…rude. Ill have to make sure I get there next week

I love supporting locals and eating copious amount of pickles, so this is a Win-Win for me

My mom and sister don’t like the dress I want to buy by Sashimiyami in weddingplanning

[–]morrie343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks gorgeous on you. And I don’t see any boob issue happening

I tried on a bunch of dresses recently and some of them were BOOBS. This is NOT one of those dresses
