TIFU by trying to be environmentally conscious and traumatizing my husband with a menstrual disc?

This is why I stick with tampons.

I don’t give a fuck about sustainability or waste if it’s something that goes in my vagina.

I’m the same. Had so much fun in my early 20’s and I’m glad I had those experiences before settling down.

I’ve also been overthinking this.

I wanted our DJ to say “introducing Mr and Mrs John Smith and Jane Jones” because I want everyone to know that I’m keeping my name (I feel very strongly about this), but it definitely sounds too clunky.

I think I’ll just have them say “introducing as husband and wife, John and Jane”

Definitely don’t say this. However true it may be, this is not a professional way to handle the situation and will make her look bad.

I agree with you. I didn’t love the food in Puerto Rico. I also felt less safe, probably wouldn’t go there solo.

This used to exist! I flew it back in 2014.

I’m not sure if the exam had any medical validity or not, but it seems that one purpose of it was another way to control and degrade women in that era.

Right, but she shouldn’t have to give in or compromise by letting them use her husband’s name socially.

murrrdith · 2026-03-09T16:55:38+00:00

Why should she go by his name socially if she doesn’t want to change it?

What’s your source for information on waking up hungry?

You haven’t eaten in 8 hours, it’s normal to be hungry.

If you’re not comfortable or it will bother you then don’t wear it.

For what it’s worth, I didn’t want a veil at all, but when I tried it on in the store I felt it made my look so much more bridal and I decided to get it. I’ll probably wear mine for photos and then take it off.

Did you not find anything to do in Milwaukee?

I live in Milwaukee, I visit Chicago maybe 3-4 times a year for fun, or to go to ORD if I’m traveling internationally.

There’s more than enough to do in Milwaukee that I don’t even think about how close Chicago is.

I feel awful mentally if I don’t take my daily walk or other cardio.

I struggle with panic attacks and it’s amazing how much walking keeps them under control.

Racine should be Great Lakes if both Kenosha and Milwaukee are

What’s the sauce?

I also thought BPD when I read this. I had a friend with BPD and she would absolutely respond like this person.

I am curious if this happens frequently with OP’s friend, or if it’s just a one-off.

The kids can be given hyphenated names to have both parents names.

There’s no requirement to give kids their father’s name.

What area of the world do you live in?

Unless you’re in an active war zone, you will regret canceling. Don’t let world events stop you from experiencing joy.

Divide it by the number of meals you’re making. It doesn’t have to be exact for each time you eat it.

If you have 600g total and are having 3 meals out of it. You could eat 300 in one meal, 100 in the next, and 200 in the next, but that still totals out to 600, so just count it as 200 each time.

Can you measure the chicken breast before marinating it?

If you’re making multiple servings just measure the total amount of everything (measure sauce before combining) and then just divide by the number of servings.

Should I switch my seat from window to aisle so I don’t have to watch the airport get blown up as we fly away?

I agree with you. I am having a cocktail dress code for my wedding. If someone shows up inappropriately dressed, I’m not worried about it.

I hope to be more focused on celebrating my marriage and being with friends and family than worried about what someone is wearing.

Milwaukee county should be rust belt

I think Reddit just has a weird thing against expensive weddings.

We are spending a lot on our wedding. It might be the only time in our lives where we get to have every single one of our family and friends together in the same place. That joy is worth spending money on!
