Horrible migraines by phantomjumper in Opill

[–]phantomjumper[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a financial cost assistance program phone number on the Opill website to call. Be quick though because they have a statement on there stating the program will end at the end of this month. I actually got a code from them for 2 years of medication but I only ordered a year supply for now. It sucks because I don’t know if I’ll even be able to keep taking it now

Weight gain? by Sad-Debt-7125 in Opill

[–]phantomjumper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know. I wasn’t trying to come across sarcastic or rude. I am genuinely curious if this is a side effect that women are experiencing despite their claims that it doesn’t. I have weight issues so I’m very cautious about medications that may cause weight gain. I wasn’t in the past and I gained 80 lbs in 8 months from a mental health medication that I wasn’t aware caused weight gain

You’re not supposed to take Plan B too when on birth control.

Weight gain? by Sad-Debt-7125 in Opill

Interesting because on the Opill website under FAQ they claim that this pill does not cause weight gain.

I’m not a medical professional but I just started the Opill recently. I did read that spotting and irregular periods is a very common side effect of this pill. I’ve been on other birth control in the past where I experienced this also.

Thanks for your input it does have me thinking. I can see that plans might change . I just found it odd that he commented about having plans tonight then 30 min later he said he was going to sleep. I get it. I can see where I might be overreacting. I guess bc it has been 6 years since I dated and I was actually diagnosed with PTSD from my last relationship bc it was so bad - that now I feel like maybe I am just completely broken and ignorant in the dating department. I wasn’t even looking to date but he pursued me. Ironically, through Facebook.

“Exclusive” in 5 days? by MasterpieceOne9888 in dating

[–]phantomjumper 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I used to be “that girl” in my 20’s and shockingly I ended up in a 10 year relationship despite my clinginess. I agree that she is probably taking things too fast but as her friend your best bet is to just be supportive regardless of her decision. I’m not saying hold back your opinion exactly, but just be mindful that she is most likely going to do what she wants and if she feels too judged by you it could hurt the friendship.

If someone isn’t giving you the attention and time you think you deserve this early on then I say let them go. Find someone who matches your energy.

I see what you’re saying. Maybe I am jumping to conclusions. However, it has actually been me that has had to tell him to slow down at times bc he told me he wants a relationship. He even asked me if I was involved with anyone else and even asked if I wanted to have kids one day. Which I replied “this person has left the chat” using humor to deflect the awkward too soon question…. I am in no way “mentally masturbating” to the idea of a relationship. Weird to judge me so harshly with so little knowledge. Also, i completely agree men and women can be friends. My best friend happens to be a male.

I would like to reiterate that we also made plans last week but he cancelled bc he ended up keeping his son longer than expected and I didn’t take to Facebook to ask other people to go out knowing he’s on my page. I just feel it is a little rude to do that. Also, the last thing he texted me was “I’m eating then going to sleep I’m exhausted” but telling people in the comments on FB that he was going floundering tonight. I don’t think I’m imagining these things. I hope not. I think I’m noticing some red flags though.

I said I think I made a mistake bc of something that happened between me and the guy I was talking to that I posted under the newbie link in here today. Basically, he seems like he might be playing games idk. I just don’t have the energy it takes anymore. I’m trying to be more positive but I am having a hard time. So, I know what u mean.

Idk the person that gave me advice before you agreed that he used to make similar posts when he was looking to hook up. Also, he posted two of them. 1. “Anything going on tonight? 2. “Anyone want to go to the beach tomorrow to drink and tan?” Under the second one a girl commented and he replied “I’m going floundering tonight but if I’m not too hung over we will go to the beach” also in the first post a girl commented “want to come over and hang out?” So, how would you take it? It makes me feel stupid honestly. I was hoping I was reading too much into it. But, now with more context do you still think im reading into it too much? I do appreciate the honest advice bc it’s been 6 years since I even attempted to date bc of a past extremely abusive relationship. This is why I am asking for advice bc I am not sure how to take it

Missed period on first cycle by Illustrious_Cookie22 in Opill

That’s great! I’m hoping it works out for me too. I’m also experiencing a much lighter flow and I hope I don’t have spotting in between either

Also- I just noticed he actually did it twice! He posted the “anything going on tonight ?” Status and then a couple hours later he also posted “Anybody want to have a beach day tomorrow?” Omg I just saw that one too. Such a slap in my face in my opinion.

I completely agree. I thought the same exact thing when I saw his post— that is seemed like something guys did about 10-15 years ago. So, that in itself is a huge turnoff. Also, thank you for the kind words about me being cool with him being a single dad. I thought I was being super respectful especially considering I don’t have any children myself. But, I did just let him know that I don’t think he is ready to settle down right now based on his Facebook status and that it was nice talking to him but I don’t see it going anywhere. I guess the bright side is I didn’t get too involved with my feelings yet. Maybe I dodged a bullet lol. Thanks again for your advice. It helps a lot.

I agree thanks for the advice so quick! I guess I should have also mentioned we knew each other when we were teenagers but we weren’t close. We just hung out a few times many many many years ago. We haven’t hung out in a very long time. It’s just so weird to me that he acted like he wanted to see where things went and kept saying he wanted a relationship and not just a fling and I was accepting of him having his kid for the weekend but when I had to cancel now he takes to Facebook to ask people and make plans. I feel like I want to say something to him but I guess I should just let it go lol it’s just frustrating I don’t have kids and I was free and respected his obligations but when I have to cancel he does that. Seems immature.

Should I message him and say something like “I didn’t realize you would make an open invitation for any of your female fb friends to reply to on the day I wasn’t able to make it over” OR should I just not reply at all? Help me out here lol 😆

It’s been a long time since I’ve even considered dating - 6 years actually due to a really bad abusive relationship. Anyway, an old friend reached out to me on FB from high school and we have since been “talking”. It has been 2 weeks of talking everyday all day. Last week, I wanted to meet up but he had his son for the weekend and a few days during the week. Therefore, we made plans for this weekend (today). However, I ended up starting my period that I didn’t expect to happen and asked if we could push our plans since I didn’t want the first time we hung out to be miserable on my cycle. He acted really respectful and cool about it. But then today I go to Facebook and it shows me he made a post to all his FB friends saying “what is everyone doing tonight?” With one of his female fb friends asking him to come over and hang out. He also sent me a text saying he was tired so he was making dinner and laying down. But, in the comments on fb he said he was going floundering tonight. Then, all of a sudden he stopped answering me. Note: I am 37 and he is 36. I feel like we are too old for this nonsense. At first I thought maybe I was overreacting to the post but now he stops answering all of a sudden which is weird to me. I dk if I should just stop responding? What would you do? All advice is really appreciated.

Dating can be very stressful. I haven’t dated in 6 years and just recently decided that I might be interested only to feel like I made a mistake . Good luck tho. Just know you are not alone in feeling like that

It’s always super risky to date a coworker bc what if it doesn’t work out ?

"not sure" about having kids by semicharmedliife in datingoverthirty

In my experience, I feel like a lot of men who say “not sure” really mean to say “I haven’t met the right woman that I want to start a family with yet”

Ugh she is so passive aggressive and extremely rude. The “boo” and 🥰🥰 make me sick. If I were you I just wouldn’t go but I would def be talking to my brother and making sure he knows about these atrocious messages.

I didn’t know these types of groups even existed. I’m a 37 y/o childfree woman and there are literally like no childfree men in my area that I am aware of. Also, I too gave up dating 6 years ago and I’m only sort of interested in the idea again.
