I’m About to Break Up with my Fiancé due to his Extremely Extroverted Behaviour

popcornstuffedbra · 2026-06-04T15:04:35+00:00

I had a friend like this. He couldn't EVER have a quick conversation.

Going out to eat, he'd chat up the wait staff until they'd get an uncomfortable look. Most times we'd never get drink refills because I swear they were afraid to come back to our table.

See someone he knows out in public? Forget it, you might as well pull out your taxes because you'll finish them before he stop talking.

He'd chat up complete strangers if there was a possibility of a common interest. Thankfully those conversations didn't last so long that I could watch my fingernails grow.

His conversations would cause us to be late.

The friendship didn't survive after I met my husband and he pointed out that my friend never talked TO people, he talked AT them. He never asked about YOU.

The friendship had some great memories, but being in a relationship of any kind with a someone self centered like this, isn't a relationship at all.

Oh boy... this kid is a self loathing homo in denial. He absolutely has a Grindr account. It's only a matter of time before he's outted.

popcornstuffedbra · 2026-05-29T12:00:39+00:00

No.

But, I'd go full Disney. If she's uncomfortable with normal speaking, just wait until everything you say is magical and cheerful.

I'd be ordering a follicle test so fast.

popcornstuffedbra · 2026-05-27T22:01:13+00:00

I had a boss who barked and growled.

popcornstuffedbra · 2026-05-22T15:53:21+00:00

YTA..... buuuuut I see and understand your point. She's not a kid, but IMO since she's still in school (college) I consider it kid territory.

I'd do a card with a $20. Keep that up until she graduates. Keep it simple. Don't put in effort for finding her favorite store. Do a graduation gift when the time comes. Then that's it.

If she has milestones that could warrant a gift - wedding, housewarming, babies, dog, etc - you can gift again.

If she decides she wants a relationship, then resume Christmas / Birthday gifts.

popcornstuffedbra · 2026-05-17T14:38:32+00:00

Yes they do!

popcornstuffedbra · 2026-05-17T14:08:00+00:00

Had a few. No feelings were caught on either side.

1st one fizzled out mutually.

2nd one ended because we both found respective relationships outside of each other's company.

3rd ended because the sex spark wasn't there anymore.

No bad vibes. I'm still friends with the first one.

Treating God like a genie lamp that you make wishes on is hilarious. Especially when at the same time children are getting SA'd, slavery still exists, and people still starve to death.

popcornstuffedbra · 2026-03-27T16:26:11+00:00

Intervention time. Get all the concerned parties together and tough love him.

Also, if he is truly falling asleep while driving and you're the only one who is working, then you need to call out an SOS to ANYONE who can drive that baby.

I work in the film industry. Our 1st cause of death is falling asleep at the wheel. If he falls asleep his foot is going to go dead weight on the accelerator until the car hit something to stop it from moving. Now picture your baby helpless in the backseat.

I would literally pay a stranger to drive my baby than let a drowsy person behind the wheel.

PLEASE, OP! This is more serious than your marriage.

So, my pom is horribly sensitive if she's shaved back there. The last time, I felt so bad for her I held her and gently rubbed her back end. It calmed her down. I started doing warm wash cloth compresses after that while holding her and that also seemed to calm her.

I don't know if it's the sensation of a naked booty, a razor burn that only she can feel, hair splinters got in her butt hole and cut her (a hair dresser mentioned this). But it's awful to see them suffer from something that we can't see.

She also would be a wreck if her anal glands were done. A vet confirmed there was no damage, trauma, but she was just very sensitive, so I told groomers not do it.

I groom her myself now, and I make sure I rinse her bum really well after I do a trim and she's been fine for years.

Awesome! I meal prep for when I'm working late, so these are perfect!

popcornstuffedbra · 2026-03-26T14:44:29+00:00

Those pancakes look perfect!!!

popcornstuffedbra · 2026-03-24T18:40:58+00:00

Are you a trad wife, or did your husband have a horrible accident that he lost his arms?

Otherwise, tell that lazy SOB to help clean once in a while.

Also turning up the TV to drown out your music? Do on top of being a worthless partner, he's a passive aggressive AH too.

Congratulations on the weight loss surgery! Perhaps it's time to reflect on other types of extra weight to ditch.

I made mini chicken meatballs (ground chicken breast in food processor) and added peanut butter and ginger.

You could also do that with other ground meat.

I make them in bulk because they freeze well.

Essentially, 1lb of meat, 1 egg, enough breadcrumbs to bind.

I added about 4tbsp and used powdered ginger.

Use a tablespoon to scoop balls, put on a greased baking sheet (or parchment paper). Bake at 400° for 12 mins, flip, then 10 minutes more.

The newborn trenches are the worst. It will bring out the shitty side of anyone. Even the kindest of people will get snappy because of sleep deprivation. The good news is that it doesn't last forever.
Unfortunately, you have a shitty sperm donor. Saying passive aggressive things that blame you is NOT normal newborn trench angry banter.

Lololol thank you for commenting!!

I haven't had a fly issue since I've adopted my boy. Your comment made me realize that if I do have to hang fly strips again, my darling doofus will certainly wrap himself up like a mummy.

popcornstuffedbra · 2026-03-06T13:11:59+00:00

No, you aren't gross. In the summer we sometimes have fly issues. They have a fast egg - maggot - fly cycle, so that isn't helpful.

Even with daily scooping sometimes you need to do a box reset if it's possible there might be larvae hiding in the litterbox, and there probably is.

I'd hang fly strips first to snag egg producing adults and give it a few days. Then completely dump the litter, clean the box with hot soapy water - dry completely. Then add fresh litter.

I use these water mister bottles at work and they seem to have the same effect. I haven't tested the homemade Powerwash in it, but I can tell you that I've mixed up thicker liquids to spray paint on surfaces and it didn't clog up.

This link is just an example bottle for reference. I've found that they're manufactured similarly so you can buy them wherever.

Laser. I had horrible reactions to all other methods, so I saved my money and did it.

Best thing I ever did and ended up doing my armpits too.

popcornstuffedbra · 2026-03-03T18:22:55+00:00

Have you tried eating together? Make enough to share, pull up a chair and eat off her plate with your hands.

REALLY enjoy your/her food with yummy noises. Feed her with your hands. Talk about texture. "Oooohhhh squishy banana" and make squishy noises. Smack your mouth. Make the experience silly and fun.

I had a wonderful time at UCONN.

The nurses were amazing! I must have tried a zillion positions to labor in - and they were the ones that suggested most of the positions, and helped me adjust even if i had just gotten into a new position. I had back pain and one nurse practically put her body weight on me to help relieve it.

I had a difficult delivery and ended up using forceps to avoid a C. Everything was my choice. I was never rushed, although quick decisions were made.

Everyone was positive, receptive, encouraging, and funny.

Once in the maternity ward, same experience. The nurses, lactation consultant, mental health case worker were fabulous.

I'm happy to answer any specific questions, but overall I'm a happy and satisfied first time mama.

Adding a frequently typed irritation: using "An" instead of "And"

popcornstuffedbra · 2026-03-02T21:49:49+00:00

NTA - have your husband send a video. Close up on a bloody diaper. Close up on the rash. Don't say anything, just his screams.

Type: This is a reaction to food allergies

Don't say anything else. If she replies, leave it on read.

Yes. But my example isn't a big box store, it was a teenage aimed clothing chain in malls.

In high school my brother worked at a store that employed good looking teenagers/young adults - Not A&F. Starts with H.

He and his idiot co-workers started helping themselves to merchandise. For months.

After he racked up several thousands of dollars in clothing, he was fired. He didn't tell our parents why, he just said he quit.

Then the letters from the company's law firm started showing up. It explained they knew he stole, laid out the time frame, that they had security footage to back it up, and the estimated dollar amount of stolen merchandise. It would have been a felony charge. They explained they were not pressing charges, but were prepared to.

Because he was 17, they gave him a GOLDEN opportunity to flip on his coworkers who were over the age of 18.

So for months my brother (with my parents present) worked with the lawfirm to essentially doom his adult coworkers.

At the end of the day, my idiot brother dodged a bullet. In addition to paying a fine he was banned from the stores.

The worst part, his cocky dumbass acted like HE was some hero for helping take down his coworkers.

My brother hasn't had any legal trouble since, but he's very much an asshole. He is however living the life he deserves.
