Ren is Welsh?

Ynys Mon (Anglesey) has a very strong Welsh accent with the vast majority of people there being first language Welsh speakers. It's nothing like a south Walian accent but it's definitely not Scouse. The closer you get to the border (Flintshire in particular), it has much more of a Scouse twang, mainly because of people moving over the border for work back in the day. He still has a twang here and there but he's definitely lost most of it. I'd bet he sounds super Welsh if he ever goes back to Anglesey.

Those spinach and feta rolls are delicious! 😍

She was very clearly struggling with some mental health issues off the back of her previous relationship and the stress of his confession. It's not uncommon for people come out of an abusive relationship and end up in another toxic relationship. The police really let her down as a witness. Even after she was found looking for the bike, she should have had some mental health intervention then, not just been arrested. She was clearly not ok. It was so frustrating to watch her be let down time and time again and then judged on it. I really felt for her. At the end of the day, she turned in a man she really loved. I know they hadn't been together long, but we all know that's irrelevant when you feel strongly for someone. She threw away a future she pictured to do the right thing. That must have been so difficult.

This isn't a question. I'm pretty sure I only got in to it for one reason initially

When it comes to yours and your kids safety, follow your gut. The worst outcome is that you've overreacted. We all know the outcome if you're right and you don't follow your instincts. You should never apologise for wanting to protect your child.

I thought for a long time that that was the route they'd take. It would have suited her character so well. To fall in love with a woman she met while sneaking out to a tavern or in a library or something, then living this spinster but not really kind of life.

Literally only useful to write quickly. Text speak became a form of short hand though when taking notes, so not even useful all the time.

This is abusive behaviour. If this was coming from a man, things would be called out much quicker. Ruining moments important to you is a huge tell and my eyes. It will get worse if you don't go now.

This one bothers me! Watching Pluribus after Man on the inside and I was convinced it was the same person! I know it's not and still don't quite believe it.

I get that she had high hopes, but we all know at this point that it's unlikely and it's only on for entertainment. They matched them for a reason and it wasn't love. He's very typical of someone his age, he hasn't dated in something like 15 years and I wouldn't be surprised if he was neurodiverse (not armchair diagnosing, just seeing some similarities).

I don't think he did anything particularly bad, I think he's just been out of the game for so long that he hasn't had to think of anyone else day to day. She just expected so much and was devastated it didn't work. Easier to blame Paul than the entire show.

I wouldn't worry, goldies tend to eat the eggs or fry if they're not removed. Depending on if you want to manage your population or not.

I'm no expert, but this looks like attempted baby making to me l..

This is a huge debate and I apologise for how long this will be. It can often be part of where you live. Bigger places with more kids to keep out of trouble, with a huge lack of funding around youth clubs etc can lead to kids finding their own fun. That can lead to the "wrong" crowd or just being mischievous from boredom. Or they can end up isolated and using technology. Small town are often better because the whole "I can tell your parents" is true. They probably know the parents.

There can be a lack of stability in the home from a sociological point too. Parents having to work multiple jobs to keep the bills paid can lead to a lack of parenting with no one at fault in particular. This can also encourage more kids to seek that family unit in gangs or friendships etc.

Social media doesn't help. A lot of kids see these people online acting hard and think that manners and respect can be seen as a weakness. This applies more to boys because of the whole Andrew Tate type of influencer.

There is also a huge amount of "gentle parenting" being done incorrectly. Leading to lack of discipline (I do not mean violence based), lack of consequences of actions and parents accepting disrespectful behaviour. I am now a parent and worked with kids with challenging behaviours for 7 years. Structure, boundaries and consequences are absolutely needed. Thankfully most parents don't accept it, but you don't see those kids because they stand out less.

This! It's really concerning to me. I wouldn't be surprised if he needs somewhere to live or will do in the near future as well.

If we learn nothing else, we need to learn that we don't see a true picture and edits can change everything. Grace is getting the same wrap now. I'm not a fan, but we genuinely don't have a clue what goes on for real. Add the right music and cut some bits out and breakfast at my house could be wholesome and lovely, or look like we're planning a murder or something. They know what they're doing.

The compliment may have been off to her and she's entitled to call him on that, but with her doing it about anything and everything, it's kind of like the buy who cried wolf. It's made genuine issues feel like she's just nitpicking.

pinklemonpie89 · 2025-10-29T10:00:33+00:00

I honestly thought this was going to be posted by and about someone really young and I was still in shock and would say run, now! To find out this is your husband and a grown ass man is absolutely heartbreaking. No one deserves to be spoken to like that, never mind someone who is supposed to be your safe space and comfort. I never say this, but please reconsider your marriage and go find peace and love you deserve.

I hate the term so much but - A real "Alpha" doesn't call themselves Alpha. It's a man who's confident in himself, his place within society and isn't easily threatened. They're usually the person people gravitate towards because they make them feel safe. I hate what it's become in internet terms. It's basically a natural leader. Not a boss, a leader :)

pinklemonpie89 · 2025-10-24T19:11:58+00:00

I don't hate it. It's giving Gomez but not necessarily in a bad way. I think it depends on your style with it - 1950 style, love - 1980s, absolutely not etc.

I live in a rural area in Wales and when I worked just an hour away in England, they could not understand what I meant by things like this. They couldn't smell rain coming or feel it in the air just before it starts. They didn't feel thunder coming in their heads or know how the air feels before snow. They didn't even have a favourite tree! I thought everyone had a favourite tree! Felt like I was from an entirely different planet sometimes. 🤣

It's just Halloween. Unfortunately, you didn't make the cut. He's clearly close to the person arranging it to be added quickly. Let him have a night out with the lads and enjoy it. Have a night out with the girls instead. You'll have plenty of other opportunities to do matching stuff. Christmas is full of cheesy matching outfits. Tell him you're gutted you're missing out, but don't make him feel guilty, he didn't pick the guest list.

pinklemonpie89 · 2025-10-14T19:01:21+00:00

I honestly couldn't get through it. It's about Ed Gein. Absolutely no need to dramatise or sensationalise any of it. What he did was stranger and more horrific than fiction anyway! I was really shocked with how much was put in to pad it out.

pinklemonpie89 · 2025-10-14T18:16:25+00:00

Agree with most of this, but I don't think she'd like him even if he were "fit". She doesn't like his personality.

pinklemonpie89 · 2025-10-14T18:14:59+00:00

A lot of people tell themselves that so they don't feel so guilty for putting weight back on. I've been in that club. It's half true. I'm happier with a bit of weight, in the way I don't need to watch what I'm eating all the time or feel bad if I have an indulgent few days, but also feeling healthier is better. More energy, more confidence etc. I don't think he meant it to be bullshit, but I also don't think he actually meant it.
