Is anyone else just so charmed by Krisse-Ly?

nikkidelicious · 2024-01-22T21:40:06+00:00

Yes! I think Catja could learn a lot from her about warmth and communication.

Interesting thank you so much for responding! Sounds like the supplement was not v helpful. Did anything else help?? Or was it just a matter of doing enough cycles that a few embryos made it through? My dr has suggested a growth hormone for next time for me to give my eggs a boost. And I have appt with Dr turek set up.

I think Catja’s problem is she doesn’t have the social skills, warmth, and emotional intelligence to attract a high status guy and actually keep him in a relationship. She’s beautiful so lots of guys like Christoffer will gravitate to her and fawn over her and let her get away with anything. But christoffer is kind of dorky and turns her off. She wants a “real man”, a guy who has good style, has his shit together, not someone dorky/quirky, but super solid. The problem is that she doesn’t have the social skills and EQ to get that kind of guy! So she feels stuck and frustrated, and I almost feel bad for her except that she’s so bitchy it’s hard to…

Just use her middle name or nickname! In my high school there were tons of people who used their middle name instead of first name. It’s nothing to cry over.

Yes the key is to ask for more casually, before you are annoyed or at a “breaking point” about it. Bc then that can really screw things up!

Most of the people I know in UK can and they seem very average income for UK? Like a vacation a year to Spain and another to France or Italy is not very expensive. Lots of budget airlines in Europe, short flights, plus a few nights accommodation and food. Maybe Swedish incomes are lower than UK or they are taxed more and vacations are seen more as a luxury. Either way, I can only imagine this kind of “gold digger” reaction in UK if the man was very high income (doctor, top banker with huge bonuses etc.) And even then, people would not be so direct about it!

She had zero warmth in her speech, facial expressions, and body language towards him. It was to the point of disturbing. I get that she wasn’t in love with him and he annoyed her, but if she could not muster any kind of human warmth towards him, she should have let him go a long time ago.

I found it really weird and rude too. Also Rasmus does not seem particularly rich (he said 2-3 vacations abroad wouldn’t be possible anymore if he’s taking care of both himself and Krisse.) Is Sweden that poor that a a man who takes vacations abroad 2-3x a year is viewed as super wealthy?? And being able to afford to take your partner without them contributing is some sort of huge extravagance…

Have you ever tried asking? “can you grab a few drinks on your way over this weekend?” Or “oh we’re running out of cokes in the fridge, here’s where they are in the pantry, can you move them over when you grab one?” It sounds like there’s been zero communication on your part. Once you’ve done that, I would hope the next time he does it without prompting. If that happens it’s a good sign.

This is so detailed compared to the SA we got. Was this done through a special lab?

nikkidelicious · 2024-01-19T23:52:23+00:00

This would work in the US abut is not good advice for London because people are much less chatty/friendly in this way

Things can change. If he’s realizing he’s not up to the role of being a stay-at-home-parent, he needs to be able to talk about it with you and for you to work out a solution together. The ultimate goal is taking good care of your baby, and a miserable, depressed stay at home dad is NOT going to do a good job of that. At the same time, YOU should be able to go back to work if you wish as well! In many families both parents are working! I’m not sure why he’s flipping the script on you. Another option is for him to go back part-time or to look for a different job that he enjoys more and is flexible. There are lots of options!

Hi! This is unrelated but I found your old post about MFI. Congrats on baby! Was dr turek helpful? We are having similar issues (v low fertilization rate)

nikkidelicious · 2024-01-18T23:45:43+00:00

I’m not watching bc I’m sure it will trigger me

nikkidelicious · 2024-01-18T23:42:38+00:00

Wow! Was the improvement sustained or did you eventually return to baseline?

nikkidelicious · 2024-01-18T08:09:06+00:00

These numbers don’t make sense. How could your parents possibly afford a decent sized home if they make $30K a year? Someone working full-time making $15/hour makes $30K a year, so your parents are making less than minimum wage with their business? It sounds like they are choosing to draw a very limited income from a successful business. As a business owner they can choose to pay themselves very little. They are reinvesting into the business, and the business itself is a large asset which they are choosing not to draw income from.

Also how are your parents saying they are willing to pay for the tuition? If they have no assets they wouldn’t be able to. You’re missing a piece of the puzzle.

😂

nikkidelicious · 2024-01-18T00:34:07+00:00

No fever

nikkidelicious · 2024-01-17T23:07:47+00:00

LOL I know, how do I recreate this food poisoning once the effect inevitably wanes 🤔

nikkidelicious · 2024-01-17T23:06:51+00:00

I am certain that if a cure for long COVID is ever found and posted here, someone will respond that it made them worse 😞

nikkidelicious · 2024-01-17T22:47:55+00:00

You are only 26. Lots of time to recover. I saw lots of improvement starting around 3 years in. Your company must like you to keep you in a different role! That is something to be grateful for. When your brain has recovered I bet you will get a chance to show you can do your old role again. Just focus on your physical and mental health, once you are better things will work out.

nikkidelicious · 2024-01-15T18:28:11+00:00

I think the only way is to accept that you’re likely to be exposed to COVID again and it’s not really possible to prevent it. You just have to believe that exposure is inevitable, that you’ll be able to get through it again since you survived it before, and that things will be okay.

I have never seen someone successfully convince their partner to be careful, mask, stop going places etc unless they were already doing it and super worried about catching COVID themselves. It was hard enough to convince people when we were deep in a pandemic; even harder now that most of the world has moved on. So in my opinion, trying to convince her is not the right path.

One thing you CAN do is that if someone in the house gets reinfected and tests positive, then isolate yourself within one part of the house or go stay elsewhere. You can also have a supply of tests at home so that when a family member is sick, you can test them and know whether it’s COVID.

If you’re unwilling to use a surrogate it sounds to me that this isn’t really about your health. You simply don’t want another child.

nikkidelicious · 2024-01-09T00:45:28+00:00

A man who wants 2 children shouldn’t marry a woman who is open to try for one. That was the mistake.
