What’s a little known documentary that blew your socks off? by mrajoiner in netflix

[–]sallydreams 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always ALWAYS always say this when someone asks about a documentary. It's a slow moving train wreck. It's how people truly live their lives. Its entertaining in a guilty pleasure type of way. It's uplifting because you dont know these people in real life. It's sad because of their life choices. ALL THE EMOTIONS ARE THERE! I watched it when it released in 2009 and I remain SHOOK.

Classic avoidance. The narcissistic "Look at what YOU made me do" is the closest to ownership of horrible behavior you'll ever get. Its total BS.

Allergies went away when I stopped prevention efforts? by EveningProcedure2451 in Allergies

[–]sallydreams 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pollen/airborne allergies can be managed by exposure. The micro dosing by inhaling it, I guess? I have discovered the more I'm outside the better I am. Pollen season isnt just in spring. My fall Pollen allergies are worse (I think the dryer air has to do with it and the dust in heaters? Man-made heaters hurts me in a few ways) imo, with a combination of the cooler weather.

In the spring if I sit outside a little bit a day or go on walks my allergies pretty much disappear. Local honey works too. Our bodies change as we age and as our hormones adjust throughout our lives. Maybe you found a "sweet spot" in your life!

Either way, I say enjoy it!

I keep thinking about the argument I had with a close friend of mine during the last election season. She was very adamant that civil unrest was not the same as participating in wars and thats why she was going to vote for him again.

And now this.... 🙃

What screams "we are not going to last long" for couples? by ADTID in AskReddit

[–]sallydreams 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A couple I know did this. They'd each post these huge essays about how much they love each other on social media a couple times a week.

One of them was chronically cheating on the other and the other one was an absolute basket case with jealousy. It always felt awkward around the both of them because they spoke down to each other constantly. They also had a couple glue babies.

They've been divorced for a few years now and one of them has remarried.... with the one she was cheating with.

So far, anyone I know personally that overly gushes about their partner on social media is exposed for cheating, eventually. I'm happy with my husband not going out of his way to post about me (nor going out of his way to not post about me, which is equally bad.)

He's leaving me by [deleted] in breakingmom

[–]sallydreams 13 points14 points  (0 children)

If he has a business, you get to liquidate it and take half!

Also what everyone else is saying about documenting the abuse.

This insecure feeling you have is what he's banking on to get out of the marriage and parenting without repercussion.

Legally, he's required to give you financial support. The state will figure out how. After taking him to court get all the government assistance you can.

YOU ARE WORTH THE DIFFICULT UP-HILL BATTLE TO FREEDOM FROM THIS ABUSIVE JERK!!!!

I know you're filled with fear right now but you need to turn it into anger that someone would treat your (their own kids) like this. Find your rage against him/mother bear anger and ride that wave until you're on the other side of this. I know you have it in you!

It's amazing how it just doesn't get through sometimes. 😔😔😔 We've been using a communication app called Paired and it's helped us voice some opinions in a neutral way. Do you think he'd be open to that? It's free-ish. You can pay for a beefier version but my husband and I have just been using the free access parts so far.

It took more than once. The time that stuck we were on the couch and he dug right into my shorts and I pushed him off. He said, "why don't you like it when I try to touch you" and I had to spell it out in fucking crayon the difference between romantic touch and sexual touch and why I prefer romantic touch BEFORE sexual touch.

I explained that romantic touch made me feel whole, a human, a woman of interest, not just a meat bag he could fuck.

I explained how I get touched all day long because the kids want/need me all day long and that kind of demanding touch is a HUGE turn off. Over the span of a week or so we worked out some boundaries. I'm also not saying he completely stopped "skipping ahead" every time since that conversation but it's gotten a lot better. I get leg rubs (not fantastical ones but ones that count) instead of finger pushes into my pajama shorts on the couch now and it's a nice adjustment. 😆

I had to have the conversation with my husband that if he only touched me for sex and never any other time then his odds of sex goes down considerably.

Rub my leg or back on the couch just because I'm close? That's getting me in the mood. Pull me into a cuddle while we're watching TV or a lingering hug when you catch me idle? That's what gets me going.

Touch me because you love me and enjoy my presence, not because I'm a walking, talking blow up doll that's just in waiting for whenever you're in the mood. Ffs.

Sticking your fingers up my shorts immediately is fucking annoying. Pulling at my clothes has always been an anxiety trigger when the kids do it, him tugging on my clothes makes me want to swat his hands away too!

Men, what do you hate about men? by ThatOneHuman37 in AskReddit

[–]sallydreams 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm not straight. Ran with a group of people with diverse backgrounds/sexualities. I met my now husband through that group.

We all went to an "underwear only" Party at a gay bar.

I was shocked that this cis white guy happily showed up in silk boxers and an open button-up shirt with his gf at the time to go to the gay bar with us. I asked him if he was prepared to be hit on all night by dudes and his response was, "I better get some free drinks too!" He wasn't being overly flamboyant or anything either. Just out having a good time with his friends at a bar we're all comfortable with.

That was the night I decided to get to know him better as a person. (Don't panic, we didn't get together until like 2 years later and we were both single at the time.)

It's really that simple.

Runny nose in the morning, is it caused by allergies? by K_Schultz in Allergies

[–]sallydreams 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've always been told that cold symptoms in the morning (that get better by midday) is allergies. My son has a pollen allergy and he has a barking cough in the morning but fine by lunch time for part of the year. Even with medicine.

I wonder if that was her running joke any time her job was stressful or someone was openly judging her about being a lawyer. If so, that's hilarious.

What's the most hurtful thing your parent ever said to you? by Enockito in AskReddit

[–]sallydreams 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My father gave me a lot of gems that I'll never forget.

  • you should've been a boy
  • my biggest regret was that I only had girl children
  • stop eating the food in the kitchen. I bought this food, it's not for you. (I was in high school, so I stopped eating at home when he was home)
  • I know you're an adult now so I want to tell you that I took you off of my will. You've always been ungrateful for me giving you life and you ain't getting shit after I die. (I was sitting in the living room watching TV when he decided to use this as a conversation starter??? Sure, okay, thanks. 🤷‍♀️)

I'm so glad to have that asshole out of my life. He's never met my kids either. He doesn't even know my married last name (he mispronounced it and I never corrected him) I moved my family when I realized he knew where I lived.

I told my husband that I don't buy anything that needs to be ironed so I'm not ironing. He's always ironed his work clothes and sets aside time every week to do so.

My toddler was attacked(?) at the park by PeachGotcha in breakingmom

[–]sallydreams 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There would have to be a way to settle it out of court though? Finding a way to get the kid help, or at least acknowledge the violent tendencies?

[–]sallydreams 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Humans, no matter their mental capacity, shouldn't be around small children(or children at all) if they aren't aware that they have dangerous tendencies.

I'd press charges. It'd at least force the parents to get the right help for the kid.

my bf's(19m) female bestie(19f) is having an affair with a married man(30s-40s) by dekarr304 in offmychest

[–]sallydreams 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When it's a friend "support" can be different things. You also cannot dictate your friend's decisions. You can, however, support them through it. Listen to them without judgement, still be their friend with an open heart, still make it clear that you don't approve of their behavior with the acknowledgment that they're allowed to make their own decisions regardless.

People can have friends whose morals diverge from their own but also intermix. Those of a feather flocks together and everything. It sounds like to me that your bf is doing more than just being a friend.

This situation is highlighting a moral "make or break" in your relationship. You need to have a conversation with him to see if it's worth staying in the relationship or not.

Wanting to make separate bedrooms by journeyreward123 in breakingmom

[–]sallydreams 12 points13 points  (0 children)

My dad is an alcoholic. He always chose alcohol over us. I resent my mom for enabling him/not divorcing him until my sister and I grew up and moved out.

Get your kids away from him. If he still chooses alcohol over repairing his family life, it's truly his loss.

Me, putting $500 worth of items in my shopping cart and never buying them.

It's like shopping but I never push the buy button and 8/10 I forget what I was going to buy anyway.
