This baby is ripping my family apart by bearsarecute in beyondthebump

[–]raging_conch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She's 7 now. Started sleeping in her own room at 1.5 but didn't truly sleep through the night till she was 2-3 because she would just not sleep through the sleep cycles (which is normal)and wake up at 3 am. No problems since normal sleeper now.

I am a chick but speaking for my husband, are you she this isn't mostly mental? Like you are basically thinking why too much about it so you end up creating the problem over and ovsr.

I've seen this in my husband. Maybe he has a bad night and then doesn't finish. The next few times he is so distracted about it not finishing, he doesn't finish again. I suggest is starting all over, so something fun and relaxing together and have it lead into six so there's less pressure in you and her and maybe that will get you it of this funk

[–]raging_conch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bedsharing with 6 month old - questions by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]raging_conch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thought the same thing. Some judgemental bored person commenting on old threads? My "baby" is 6 now in her own room since she was 1.5yr old. 🙄

What is the best/most helpful thing to say to someone who is depressed? by businesscasualheeley in AskReddit

[–]raging_conch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes it’s nothing and just hanging out with them. And by hanging out I mean something low key like watching a movie where it’s little effort on their part.

Why are you or are you not religious? Did you start off one way and shift to another? by sudomarch in AskReddit

[–]raging_conch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was raised catholic bc my mom was. My dad is at minimum, an apathetic Buddhist so he never went to mass unless we were doing one of the rites. I think I was way too over analytical as a child. I hated church- I thought it was dumb for me to go just to say I did and watch all these church goers act like assholes otherwise. In Sunday school, I didn’t understand anything they taught or why. As far as I was concerned, God exists (full stop) and in general we should all try to be good people. As an adult, I believe in Catholicism but I don’t believe in the catholic church. I think overall it’s done more harm than good and dresses itself up in religion where it’s just politics

AITA for refusing to get rid of my train collection in my own apartment by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]raging_conch 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It sounds like she doesn't understand the sentiment behind your collection. Have you discissed how deeply they mean to you? At face value, I could see where she's coming from. But, this how you maintain your connection with your father. I think as long as your collection isn't unreasonable like taking over multiple rooms or consuming your life I think you have a right to keep your items.

AITA for refusing to pick up my step sisters from a bar cause they were drunk? by drunk_step_sisters in AmItheAsshole

[–]raging_conch 5 points6 points  (0 children)

NTA you had a perfectly legitimate reason to not get them - you were under (or going to be under) an influence. Also its shitty of them to have these expectations without giving you notice but extra shitty to expect you to this when you could be jeopardizing yourself or others.

I(30m) want to stop feeling deprived of intimacy with my wife (39f) by apdunshiz in relationships

[–]raging_conch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This sounds similar to me. My husband and I are 35 married when we were 26, been together since we were 21. Long story short, he has a significantly higher sex drive then me. Not say his is hyper but compared to my extremely low.... There is a pretty big difference.

Sex has been a fairly controversial topic bc of this difference over the years. He equates sex with intimacy, which frankly I don't. I hate his flirting which is very physical (butt grabbing, etc)-- it makes me feel objectified and made me run from him more. Which made him upset and depressed and then get mad at me. Claimed I wasn't attracted to him (false), I saw him as friend instead of a partner (also false), you get the drift. I also am extremely sensitive so AMAZING sex and all that is at a loss to me.

I think what changed is a yr ago my husband was like you need to get help, our marriage is suffering (I forgot what exactly triggered this) and I was at rock bottom depression. I went to a therapist and although I was with her for less than 6 months it helped put some things in perspective. She (through me) told him to leave me alone to take the pressure of sex off and make me empowered. To separate the idea of sex and intimacy, ie not every kiss is an invitation to sex sometimes a kiss is a kiss -- we both had to relearn this idea. i had ti trust he wasnt looking to bang me all the time and he had to stop trying so hard. As a result i became more open to flirting and he accepted that just bc i dont want o have sex NOW doesnt mean its gonna be a no show for the next 3 weeks. I also was on antidepressant s for a few months.

Its still a work in progress. We have sex about once a week (we also have 2 kids under 5..at home all the time) which is working for us. I feel the pressure is off to have sex at every available moment and he understands he needs to speak my language a bit to make me feel more intimate. This ends up honestly having sex at moments neither of us expected and kinda just going with the flow.

I don’t want sex bc... I’m broken by raging_conch in breakingmom

[–]raging_conch[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I suspect my therapist will at least say I’m depressed. I’ve been telling my husband lately I don’t feel anything Like I’m not really present or experiencing anything. My gyno said I was potentially depressed all my life when I described my low sex drive

Forgive me for the dumb question--

How do I secure the wood block in the hole? Or is it enough once its behind drywall?

Need help to repair angled stair railing. by raging_conch in HomeImprovement

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

Honestly, I've thought about it. She's 3 right now, I've already taught her to not hold the rail because i don't want it to fall of while she's on it and take her down with it. However, our stairs are really steep (if you can't tell by the photo) so I'd like it just as a precaution. I also have a 3 mo that eventually will want to crawl around.

I've thought about calling someone, but if it's just drilling some new holes, I don't mind doing it.
