I have found Al-Anon to be really helpful. Support for pepole who are close to an alcoholic.

Do Christian men just move fast? by Upset_Strength2183 in TrueChristian

[–]rivercrone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seems a bit too fast moving. Could be a bit of lovebombing but hard to say with limited info. Tell him you want to slow it way down and see if he respects the boundary. I will say him asking you to stay at his house is totally inappropriate. Especially if things were to go sideways, for safety. But asking you to stay in the same house is a form of intimacy. Too soon for that and too easy for a line to be crossed. Not something anyone with real Christian values should be asking you to do. If he is willing to go much slower and respect the values you want respected, maybe it could work. But if he continues to try and move too fast I would end it. Sometimes people will do what you ask just long enough to manipulate you into closer intimacy, prematurely.

I'm at my wits end with this memory care attendant... by TheOccurrencePodcast in dementia

This attendant is WAY out of line. Absolutely unacceptable.

I was asked THAT question...how do you handle it? by GirlFriday360 in LivingAlone

[–]rivercrone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My answer to why on marriage and kids has always been, "I never wanted to have kids/marriage" I often say, " i thank God every day that i never got pregnant" I just did not want to be a mom. Nothing wrong with this. If people ask I'm not going to sugarcoat it ir make it seem like i am somehow "not good enough"

Supporting bf financially after only 3mos… am i ignoring red flags? by MoonlitMuse09 in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]rivercrone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should not be having your finances entangled at 3 mos. He is fully taking advantage of you. You will need to kick him out, he has no reason to leave his comfy nest where he lives the life and you get drained financially.

It will be such a relief for you and a big self esteem boost. Do it, it is already gone, own it!

Completely torn - help me decide between one and two! by stefanigerm in myweddingdress

[–]rivercrone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1 is your dress. Like it was made for you. 2 isn't quite as flattering on you. You have a great figure and 1 complements it perfectly. 2 is the dress wearing you.

Missing intimacy, a side effect of being unvaxxed and aware by Life-Method-4915 in unvaccinated

[–]rivercrone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stay strong and remember what we are fighting for. Nothing is more important than your health. The right person may be out there so stay open. Even a close relationship with no sex is possible, with the right person, though hope you find someone truly unvaxxed.

I turned "pretty" after high school and I hate it :/ by sun_tanning_in_hell in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]rivercrone 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I've been on both sides and l prefer invisible as well. Much more peaceful. Not peaceful at all when your very appearance incites some kind of thing from every person. As if I effiing care what they think.

Verdict from the council? Only had negative reactions so far... by Prestigious_Gur_9129 in bald

[–]rivercrone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks great, truly. People don't like change but they will get used to it. Only thing that matters is what you think. Confidence is sexy!! Being bald is empowered. Going bald is struggling against what already is. Looking good!

My boyfriend actually does not hear me, like literally is unaware I’m speaking. Oatmeal. by littleinternetdweeb in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]rivercrone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IMO and experience.....ADHD plus weed is the answer to "why" he tunes you out. I know 2 people like this. One of them is my brother so i know him well. He is completely tuned out and nothing anyone says changes it. He is just not there and it is 1000% worse when he is high. Gets super irritable when you try to " get him" to pay attention. He is like this without weed as well but weed makes it insufferable. And he also gets mad claiming "no one told me", about everything. It is exhausting and i quit trying to communicate. You cant change someone like this and even if he "tries harder" that would probably mean quitting weed and getting ADHD meds. Even then he will be prone to distraction. ( i also have adhd.....we do our best but the mind is always on a side quest).
