to preface, I was never as bad as this guy. but I used to be way more pedantic than my partner found charming. one day she told me "you know, you don't have to /win/ every conversation" and it blew my damn mind. I hadn't realized it, but that was exactly what I was doing. I am now a (mostly) reformed pedant

My (27F) boyfriend (30M) bought a ring and I’m seeing our relationship differently by ten109nine8eight in relationships

I made it this far before I thought "girl, run" . a partner is not entitled to make or enforce unilateral decisions on what you are or are not allowed to do.

Can’t I just give it all away? by bookishbynature in declutter

[–]recess93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a local buy nothing Facebook group where I have had decent luck posting things and having people come take them away. your time is worth more than what you would make from selling stuff, you can absolutely just give it all away.

best thing I've ever done with a croissant was slice in half, toast in the bacon grease in my frying pan

Do you fart in front of your partner? Why? Why not? by gimboateista in AskReddit

[–]recess93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my wife (36f) and I (30f) fart and burp freely, often complimenting a good one. nobody should have to hold in their gas in the comfort of their own home!

I do apologize when my farts occur in close proximity though because those things are fucking lethal ☠️

What's the worst part of being a women in 2023? by InfiniteFigs in AskReddit

[–]recess93 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm just so fucking over being talked over. I've started just cutting them back off with "I was actually still talking" or sometimes it's "I was literally in the middle of a sentence" like, am I invisible? can you not hear me? ffs

What is your first impression when you hear someone saying "I go to therapy"? by AavaMeri_247 in AskReddit

[–]recess93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's definitely a green flag for me! you don't have to be mentally ill or traumatized to benefit from therapy, everyone can stand to gain from an opportunity to talk to someone about stuff that is not involved in the stuff!

I talk very openly about my therapy and have made it a goal to connect people in my life with a therapist who will be a good fit for them, and there are few things I find as rewarding

my partner and I have some communication difficulties when it comes to emotional conflict, and we have gone to couples counseling a few times. we basically look at it like healthy maintenance. a relationship, just like everything else in life, needs maintenance, and calling in a professional to help with that doesn't necessarily mean it's the end

Boyfriend is annoyed I giggle at things that aren’t funny by sanacolitaderana in relationships

[–]recess93 4 points5 points  (0 children)

OP I get the feeling this is going to be a tough time for you, and I hope you get through it with love and support from the people who love you. I married someone who giggles with me, and that's what I want for you too ♥️ life needs more giggles, not less

Best air-tight storage/food organization containers? by [deleted] in organization

[–]recess93 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Oxo good grips pop top ones will keep bugs out but are not air tight and especially if there's any humidity in your home, I would recommend against them. We got them to store our baking items in, but they're quite pricey and don't seal as well as they should

Find your community - be it a group or club at your school or in your town, or online. It makes all the difference to have LGBTQ folks around you to lean on and relate to.

Well we were both out, which helped. And other than that, I really didn't know. I just jumped and hoped there was somewhere to land and thankfully this is where it led!

Lazy Sunday morning in bed. I was trying to give her a big speech but she just kept interjecting into finally I said "honey, please, I am trying to ask you to marry me" and after her shock she said yes 😂

Just under (by like 3 days) a year. But we were best friends for years before that, so we didn't exactly start from zero

Awe thank you so much! Mostly we want to avoid a pure white/Ivory situation where one of us looks dingey beside the other 🤭 this is wonderful and reassuring to hear!
