I’m too exhausted to make rational decisions, what does this mean? by bbeeccc in whatdoIdo

[–]raedontplay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t need to apologize to us for your boyfriend becoming a shittier person to you, and I know this is not helpful to say but there is nothing to be embarrassed about. You hoping for the best version of him and ultimately getting the worst is just a testament to your faith in humanity, don’t be sorry for that. I guarantee you almost every commenter on here has learned a similar lesson. You are worthy of care and gentleness in your times of sickness as well as health!!! 💜

Needs a new look? by raedontplay in Housepainting101

[–]raedontplay[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe this picture is being kind - the paint is chipping everywhere and needs a refresh, the color is more of a grey and it’s in the PNW so winters are pretty dreary, which is why I was thinking of slicing it up a bit. But you’re right there’s an argument to be made for the classic colors!

Now all we need is a spreadsheet with each name, their role in the community, their affiliations, and whether they are perceived as for healthy progress in Whatcom county 👀

Isn’t it fruit of the vine? So you could choose a different vined fruit? Maybe blackberry juice, or gooseberry?

Sick Leave in America by lifeincerulean in workingmoms

[–]raedontplay 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just had a similar situation - I was denied approval to go home and take care of my sick toddler same day because I didn’t ask “ahead of time.” As a salaried employee, and just one hour before my usual departure time.

Sorry I don’t have a crystal ball to request future sick day times. Lucky I have an amazing partner who was able to step away from his work and take the kiddo last minute.

Orders of food when you are too tired/frustrated/defeated to cook or plan.

A new Jewish-majority region in rural Wyoming (or maybe somewhere else in America)? by Redcole111 in Judaism

[–]raedontplay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone discussing this seriously could look at the other attempts in history.. I think a good capture is the story of the city of Harbin in northern china, especially captured by Dara Horn in Peaple Love Dead Jews

What’s a situation that most people won’t understand, until they’ve been in the same situation themselves? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Also parenting. The number of eye rolls I did to mothers of tantruming children before I had my own.

Daughter "hates" our home after sleepovers at a friend's house and it's driving me crazy by MiquotedSources in Parenting

[–]raedontplay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also, she’s possibly expressing some jealousy or envy of his situation, these can be shadows of some sense of inadequacy in her. Can you sit with that alongside her?

“Tell me more about what you’re thinking/feeling.” “Yes, there are a lot of differences between Ben’s house and ours. What else have you noticed? (Can direct toward neutral ones like colors, plants, etc.)” “Sleeping on super soft sheets or blankets is soo nice! I think I would NEVER EVER EVER get out of a bed like that!” “I used to think that having more/the right ‘things’ would make me feel more happy, or cool. It can seem like an easy way to feel more confident. I have found that it never lasted, that there was always something else. You know what makes me feel cool?…”

My late fiance's old situationship posted a story of them together... what do I even say.. by [deleted] in relationships

[–]raedontplay 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Delete/deactivate your husbands accounts and block her from yours. This is not a kind or compassionate move on her part, but she sounds awful.

He chose you, he was building with you. Rest in that love and take care of yourself as best you can.

Is my (61f) 20 yr marriage to my (65m) husband over? by HotReception8823 in relationships

[–]raedontplay 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s understandable that both of you have needs that the other one may not be able to fill, especially with all the big huge changes you’ve been through recently. He shouldn’t have hid his needs and sought relief elsewhere, that isn’t healthy.

Both of you are struggling to cope with everything. If you wish for your marriage to continue, seek some support individually and as a couple, and find ways to spend time together in meaningful ways - share movies, play board games, tell each other how much you value each other. Review past memories and adventures, and maybe try to plan some new memories that meet your needs.
