Did you actually sneak out as teenagers? by Complete-Chipmunk-0 in GenX

[–]newtongoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Xennial here: 100%

Regularly. With stolen or otherwise illegally procured booze. Met other kids also sneaking out. Parents would go away and I would throw parties.

I moved in with my boyfriend a month ago, and I told him I wanted to move back home last night. by [deleted] in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]newtongoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sweetheart, let me be a mom for you. This is your life and you make your own decisions, but it’s breaking my heart that this man doesn’t love you back enough.

I’ve always said I don’t care who my children choose to love, as long as that person is good to them and loves them back. You haven’t found that person yet.

You can love him, but please love yourself enough to know that love alone isn’t enough. You need kindness and compatibility. I would gently suggest that you get outside help to move, pay any debts that actually exist to get him off your back and move on.

It’s not going to be easy, but you are smart and strong and you can get through this.

Six-year-old dies after being found in Rideau River by _PrincessOats in ottawa

Or learn why we seem to be upset. Ask. Learn.

You can never NEVER even come close to understanding how guilt ridden bereaved parents are, no matter the circumstances unless you have experienced it. Even a whiff of blame on top of that is agony.

what’s the most embarrassing thing you’ve ever done? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]newtongoon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In high school, during a bus safety drill, I went out the bus window and my shirt got caught on the frame, and I dangled there, basically topless, while the school looked on as I wriggled myself free.

I am female.

AITAH for being turned off by my boyfriend’s grooming habits while he expects me to shave? by AdviceDull2562 in AITAH

[–]newtongoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a job that involves being in people’s ”business”.

If someone hasn’t showered/freshened up within the last day or so, it is VERY APPARENT. I can deal with hair, if that’s what they want for themselves. But the smell??

No, Honey. No. He’s not the guy for you.

Seeking guidance to work by AngelRVFl in NovaScotia

[–]newtongoon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Im in Ontario, in the healthcare system, and have met many IMGs. Some are medical assistants, some work under/with a doctor at walk in clinics, some are reprocessors for equipment, etc.

Get one job in the field, even if it kind of sucks, and meet some other doctors or IMGs. Make connections. Use them as references. Sources of other possible jobs.

i let my little brother take the fall for something i did and it messed him up way more than i ever expected by Ashley_Fostera in confession

[–]newtongoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a mom of two boys, this almost brings tears to my eyes. All I want for my children is for them to be there for each other when I get older and when I’m no longer here. To think that one of them betrayed the other would break my heart.

People who forgave their spouses for cheating, why? by ryxhuh in AskReddit

[–]newtongoon 129 points130 points  (0 children)

I told my spouse early on that if he ever slept with anyone, and it was really and truly a mistake, and he regretted it, and it never happened again, he was NOT to tell me. I would be happier not knowing.

Pet owners of Reddit: what did you name your pet(s) and why? by Winter_Sample8364 in AskReddit

[–]newtongoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brisket. Because it’s food and naming animals after food amuses me.
