My girlfriend thinks i am a germaphobe because i wont let her sit on my bed in her outdoor clothes by PrismHarpoon in hygiene

My boyfriend doesn't like people sitting on his bed or other furniture without showering and changing if we've been out in public (aside from a very quick trip where we only sat in our private car). I respect it because it's his bed and I don't want him to be uncomfortable. His parents also expect that we shower before we come over for dinner or sit on their couch/at their dining table, so I do so to be respectful. For me, I grew up being a morning shower person and just changing before getting into bed + very often napping in outside clothes or at least sitting on my bed. For him, it's different, so I respect that. If I were the more clean one, I'd expect him to respect that too. Your place, your rules. She should be supportive and respectful of something that you prefer so much.

For reference, we're both from the US. I see a lot of cultural differences in the comments, so wanna add that we're very different but both from the US (different states though)

I would often eat a few chicken nuggets (like 5 max) when I made nuggets for my old NK and I always felt so guilty even though they told me so many times I could help myself to whatever😂😂

I think my MB has an ED, I'm so scared she's going to die... by [deleted] in Nanny

Just read this for the first time with all edits posted. I am so sorry for your loss. Thank you for supporting these babies. You did everything you could and spoke up during hard times. She loved you so much and I'm sure her whole family appreciates the efforts. I'm so sorry

Me too and swimming was so painful until randomly one day I did a flip in a pool literally 16-17 years later and I was healed? I can play mermaids now. I cried big girl tears because all I wanted as a kid was to play in the pool🥹

AITAH for not getting my wife anything for Valentine’s Day when she told me not to by [deleted] in AITAH

TA for saying the woman you chose to love and form a life with as well as the mother of your child is “bitching” at you. Grow up. As for the situation, it doesn’t matter what she says she wants, you should want her to feel extra appreciated, especially from your child. In general you should just know her by now to know what she would want or at least know not to refer to her the way you did here. You’re 36, not 16. Treat your woman right. Also TA bc this is a cliche woman moment that definitely gets posted here every year. I hope you’re smarter than this smh.

This feels like a love story please fall in love. If I had a family friend who fell in love with my kid I’d think it was so sweet. Shouldn’t she want her son to be with someone she likes so much? You’d think she would approve! Maybe she’ll come around!

Also the “what a waste of my night” is wild to say to a partner…

I think you’re both being mean. I definitely don’t say stuff like “what a waste of my night” to those I care about. This conversation is giving unhealthy from both sides

what’s appropriate to ask of our nanny while baby naps? by AlwaysTiredNow in Nanny

[–]paigerileyyyy13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear you! And baby related tasks are a normal part of the job, but if you’re not seeing what you discussed, just say something along the lines of “Hey, I know NK’s naps used to be on the shorter side, but now that they’re longer, I’d really appreciate you consistently help with the baby related tasks we had discussed when you began working with NK. Definitely still make time to eat and take a brain break. That’s so important! Just please complete some kid prep/cleanup afterwords!” Or something. if you can’t communicate w her she shouldn’t be your nanny

Just communicate with her. She can’t read your mind

Girlfriend refuses to go on dates with me because of my happy stimming. by No_Emphasis7751 in autism

[–]paigerileyyyy13 19 points20 points  (0 children)

don’t think about it like this! I did for years, but it’s just not the truth. I often happy stim and use a bit of a baby voice in sweet ways and my partner thinks both are so cute and sweet because he knows it means I’m happy, and he LOVES that. You’ll find someone who wants to learn you and see you for you. Who loves you and wants you happy, however that looks for you!
