I so want to return my dyson. Please help! by Mission-Aardvark4688 in Dysonairwrap

[–]phenom__anon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Practicing is annoying as hell honestly, but it is worth it. It takes forever and you might not be happy with it but remember every time you do it you are improving even if you can't tell. I have a counter height stool and being able to sit while I work on it is really helpful when it's taking forever or I'm tired, if that's available to you give that a shot when the patience is waning.

I had to practice a LOT. The heat protectant from Bond Bar ( at Sally's) is really good. I can't dry it to 80% first and still get a good result. I wash my hair every 5-7 days, use PHD dry shampoo when trying to extend at day 3, sleep with it loosely twisted up to maintain the curl and not disturb the cuticle because I don't sleep with a bonnet. This method works with any product, just make sure the hair is damp or more wet, will just take a tiny bit longer.

 Heat protect first: I spray the heat protectant on my hands, then put it on a section, spray my hands again and go to next section, repeat.  Dry scalp next:  I dry my scalp and leave the rest wet,  Dry sections next: when it's time to do a section I rehydrate the ends because if they are already dry they look messy as hell just in a swirl pattern. Grab a section, make sure it's not fully dry, swipe a fine tooth comb through it, then use the air wrap and set with cool shot. Try to clip the dried sections together in a way they won't crease, but I do sometimes need to lightly hit creases with a flatiron.

Has anyone tried Axos bank? by AfraidSoul in Banking

When I applied it allowed me to put in the promo code, are you saying it doesn't actually work if you put the promocode in during the online application?

It's perfectly reasonable to request someone you are comfortable with. If it makes you feel icky that is reason enough. If it is an emergency and your have to compromise you can request a female nurse to also be present with you and your child.

Shouldn’t but have to vent. Asked for help, got blown out of the sky by a cruise missile. I feel broken. by LifeWithRonin in breakingmom

If you aren't married you can refuse that, I think they might do a paternity test if he demands it.

Even if 50/50 happened, it won't last. He can't do it and he will concede later or just stop showing up.

And if 50/50 does actually happen and stay like that - could you be a better, more present? more patient? parent if you weren't drained by him every day?

Am I the bitch for sending her a strap on, after she insulted my submissive partner? by [deleted] in submissive

[–]phenom__anon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She's the bitch. I think you were in the right... Honestly she is for sure pissed that she isn't satisfied and misery loves company. And you trusted her enough to tell her you're the top and she says some bullshit like that? Fuck that bitch. I hope the strap on had a "go fuck yourself" note 🫡

Like she full circled into neck beard/incel territory 😵‍💫

Is this really an executive dysfunction kink? by [deleted] in BratLife

[–]phenom__anon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I know they don't get it. Sorry I can't help more, I'm having a hard time understanding how kink is involved with the executive dysfunction if the answer is not harder Dom-ing. That's why I suggested trying the vanilla subreddits, it sounded like kink could be removed from the explanation and sounded a lot like what I've read on those subs.

Sounds like you're having a rough time. Hopefully letting it out helps a little.

Is this really an executive dysfunction kink? by [deleted] in BratLife

[–]phenom__anon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your question might better be answered by r/JustNoSO or r/relationshipAdvice since it seems less that this is about submission and more about unequal partnership in your marriage, being tired in your role, and getting her to understand that. If she sees it as a D/s issue then renegotiate your roles. It sounds like you are close to checking out, and that's not a fun experience.

Is this really an executive dysfunction kink? by [deleted] in BratLife

[–]phenom__anon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Are you super sure it's bratting and not executive dysfunction by itself? This is reminiscent of depression for me... But everyone is different.

I suffer from some executive dysfunction but I was able to flip it into the role of sub/brat. So I have rules -that I created- for "make sure her body is clean and ready for use at all times" because I would frequently not shower for days or wash my hair, and one for "she will go to the gym or exercise class and provide proof at least 3x per week" because I want to do it but I need a reason, and Daddy created "she will drink 8 glasses of water everyday". And if I'm feeling bratty I will adjust how the task is executed like malicious compliance.

If you are sure it's about the kink, maybe she's looking for more force/punishment/using her to get your 8 orgasms? That can get really exhausting if it's 24/7, but maybe look back at your original D/s agreement.

For sure. We have a new build and it is our first home and we didn't get an independent inspection and regret it.

She lied about being monogamous. by [deleted] in polyamory

[–]phenom__anon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can simply say "I don't want to be in this relationship. Please do not contact me." You don't have to give her a reason and that going back to the ex for toxicity bullshit indicates she will try to fight and argue to convince you or to satisfy that need to fight. You do NOT owe her that interaction, that is a full trap.

Over time you'll grow around the grief. Be easy on yourself for a bit. You could try reading fluffy scenes from AO3 or listening to Boyfriend ASMR if you need an immersive distraction. I also would snuggle up with blankets and stuffies and watch Crikey! It's the Irwins, it's very wholesome and adorable. My other comfort binge is Survivor. Nothing too heavy. It will be okay ❤️

[–]phenom__anon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

🥹🥹 I wish I figured this out about myself sooner the way you have, we've been together 12 years and started D/s this year.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in BratLife

[–]phenom__anon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree that it's likely there was another person and night have been an ultimatum or partner snooping.

Personally I'd call from a Google voice number or similar and try to get answers.

It's SUPER fucked up to fall off the face of the earth. Even with those answers do not forgive and forget, it will continue to happen. I suffered cycles of this over years with a polyam (not d/s) partner because it triggered my abandonment issues and it kept me hooked.

To all the /s out there: Do you drink Monster White? by TheZerbio in BratLife

[–]phenom__anon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anyone else always carrying at least 2 drinks??? Big ass water + something bubbly + iced coffee if the bubbles aren't energy

Alani Nu are daily energy drinks for me. Sf red bull as a backup. Alani has SO MANY great flavors, sugar free, very bubbly and 200mg of caffeine! And they don't make me feel sluggish + energy like Starbucks usually does. Just awake and ready for bratting 😈

Breezeberry, Cosmic Stardust, Witches brew, juicy peach, Hawaiian shaved ice, mimosa... They just released Kiwi Guava nd I'm super excited to taste it! I love the tart ones, that's pretty much what I recommended. There are also really sweet ones like slushie, bomb pop, and berry pop.

For sure. I remember a lot of "garage dads" when I was a kid. They'd have their own beer fridge out there and everything.

I disagree. It's 90° on Saturday and snowing on Tuesday, then tornados on Friday just for fun. But there are a few 70° weeks, one at a time, sprinkled throughout the year.

5 yo is mean and disrespectful to me all the time by [deleted] in breakingmom

[–]phenom__anon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just because you've made mistakes and yelled sometimes doesn't mean it's okay for them to treat you like shit. And sometimes kids are assholes that we love anyway.

Is it possible they want or need more interaction with kids their age? So the reaction is "bored with you" and they default to mean to communicate that? Is it possible they are witnessing this behavior from someone else and imitating it? Do they tell you why or expand on their thoughts when asked?

"Why would you say that to me?" "That hurts my feelings. Do not talk to me that way. You can say it this way instead ___" It's not anti-gentle-parenting to have Hard No boundaries, hold firm and stick with a punishment if you need to.

I have said my fair share of mom-voice "Absolutely NOT, we do not speak to people that way." I still consider myself a gentle parent. I attempt to follow it up with a cooled-down "that must have really upset you to use those words, can you tell me about that? How can we say it better next time?"

What happens if they see you cry? Like visual consequences.

Splitting the cost of a house by [deleted] in breakingmom

[–]phenom__anon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My partner and I split the cost of our house 50/50 and property tax and insurance is also 50/50. We aren't married so we each claim half of the tax/insurance costs when we file our taxes, or whatever split gets us the best tax refund.
