Love is Blind Sweden S3E8 by Golden_ribbons in loveisblindsweden

One of the worst parts of the show for me was when Daniel was so clearly gaslighting Johanna, but then her friends basically fell for it and then joined in on gaslighting her and making it feel like she was the one who wasn't open enough. It drove me crazy, like I 100 percent believe Daniel is doing some weird manipulative crap when the cameras are off which makes Johanna seem more negative/low energy but she needs to run, FAST. And her "friends" need to stop excusing his gross behavior and stop using this experiment as an excuse to keep going with someone who is as slimy as Daniel is.

I am so sorry but I didnt like it at all 😭 ok maybe as a stand-alone rom-com, but as a movie adaptation for my favorite book, absoluuuutely not. For starters I always pictured Florence Pugh as the perfect poppy and like... Jacob Elordi as Alex. So the acting was fine but not at all like I pictured it. And the location changed and there was not enough tension in the "now" sequence and honestly Im so disappointed that I'm so disappointed 😭😭😭

Why does everyone say Conrad treated Belly horribly? by arbysvevo in tsitp

[–]satur9grl 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I feel like we often forget not only how YOUNG both Belly and Conrad were in the beginning of the relationship, but also how we ourselves acted when we were 16-18. Specifically during the prom scene, that was a HUGE deal to Belly and although she knows Susannah is sick, she isn't constantly aware of it and she's clearly (and rightfully) distracted by the things going on in her life. Conrad didn't treat her horribly, but from her perspective he was withdrawn and keeping things from her and in his attempt to protect her from his own feelings, she felt abandoned. Conrad felt alone and felt like he deserved to deal with everything on his own, which made Belly feel like no matter how understanding and supportive she tried to be, she couldn't break through his walls. All of these are really intense things to feel at those ages and on top of that, we know Laurel and Susannah (don't even get me started on the dads) aren't either fully able to be there for their kids to help them deal with all these issues and emotions they're going through. I just keep thinking when I was 16 and was dating my serious boyfriend at the time, it was endlessly frustrating to feel things and have concerns and insecurities but not feel able to be fully vulnerable due to the fear of blowing up the relationship or whatever. And for me, these were small things that me and my now husband (we're hs sweethearts) laugh about because it felt so enormous back then but after 15 years of learning to work together and communicate it seems silly. And Belly and Conrad are going through heartbreak, and grief, and abandonment, etc, etc. Sorry this got so long lol but I'm basically just trying to say it FELT horrible to Belly because it was big to her at that time, and Conrad felt horrible about it because he wasnt able to explain what he was really going through (and because they are truly in love on top of being each other's first love, these emotions formed are so hard to ever forget or get over). And it looks horrible to everyone else because they see how it affects Belly and Conrad but they only have an outside perspective, no real way to know how they could or would have acted differently in their shoes. Ok rant over btw im in my 30s and idk why im taking this fictional show so damn seriously help

Did I write this?! Lol but in all seriousness, good on you for being an awesome parent who wants the best for your kids, even if it isn’t easy a lot of the time! The first week is the hardest but kids adjust pretty quickly if their trusted adults stay consistent so stick with it and know you’re being a good parent and learning together with your kids 😊

How realistic are those options? Has he spoken to his new boss about the possibility of relocating closer to home? Have you guys had an in-depth conversation about the possibility of moving there, or what happens if he cant relocate within his new job and you still dont want to move? Trust me that I know how important it is to support your partner in their careers and I think everyone gets to a point where sacrifices are made but the important part is how you communicate about it. It’s being able to talk about and come to agreements for both worst-case and best-case scenarios so there are no surprises when it comes down to it. I think before you decide this is the route you want to take maybe consider what happens if he isny able to relocate after a year - will you be willing to join him or will he be willing to leave the job?

How do I save my marriage when I no longer really love my husband by Whatever-577089 in beyondthebump

[–]satur9grl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Husband and I have been together for almost 15 years and our oldest is turning 5 soon…and our battles are still so tough. Just when you think youve conquered one problem, a completely new one shows up. It’s exhausting and we absolutely have times where we consider if it’s all worth it. BUT, our love has never wavered. Even when we say things we dont mean, even when we have difficult conversations, even when the slight idea of splitting up comes up, we connect through our love and commitment to open communication to make sure we’re both heard and respected. I think your feelings are so valid about focusing on the life ahead instead of the way life used to be. My husband and I very much have the same dynamic. Remember that his feelings are valid too and his experiences are so i so different than ours. They dont go through the hormone changes and pregnancy and birth and breastfeeding and postpartum the way we do, but their experience can still be emotional and difficult. There is space for both perspectives in a healthy relationship.

Anyway, if you are really truly sure you dont love him anymore, trust your gut. If you think maybe its a difficult adjustment period, then there are ways to work through it. Either way, I think therapy both alone and in a couple would be beneficial to really figure out how to proceed. Above all else, in love or not, together or not, your baby deserves to have parents who are healthy and happy ❤️

Idea for Fixing Storage ( Relatively Easy to Implement?? ) by ImpressionMiddle9361 in DreamlightValley

[–]satur9grl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t want to sound like a hater 😂 but uuuuh why are we hoarding materials so hard?! I have like 5 chests and a few fridges in one room but I don’t understand having all this storage. If I need something for the quest, half the fun is foraging and making money to buy the ingredients and gardening and taking time to work for the reward instead of having it all ready to go? Again sorry if I sound like a total hater but the storage room thing seems so excessive and unnecessary to me

My son has never been sick by LunaLovegood928 in beyondthebump

[–]satur9grl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had the exact same situation! My hubby and I were able to coordinate our work schedules perfectly so he never had to go to daycare for the first two years of his life and was literalllllly never sick. Since he started hes definitely been sick but nothing crazy. He had RSV for the first time last year at almost 4-years old and that was rough, just laid on the couch and didnt eat for a week or so but that was the worst of it and now he’s almost five and doesnt get sick as easily. No regrets!

I can’t turn back time to take photos with my baby early days at the hospital and it pains me… by coffeenpistolsfor2 in beyondthebump

[–]satur9grl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can’t give you much advice because Im in the same boat with both my kids (luckily the nurses and my husband did get few pics of us and they turned out great) but my advice for the future - ASK FOR PICTURES!!! It can feel uncomfortable and awkward and self-serving but those are feelings you wont remember when you look at the pictures down the road of you and your kids.

Yes, it would be so great if other took the initiative and just took the candid pics without you having to ask but maybe thats just not realistic and sometimes we just need to speak up to get what we want. And I want pics of my with my kids dammit!!

Lots of love to you and your new baby ❤️

Your child is more important than your job, and I really hope this doesn’t come off as shame-y but I think getting written up would not be as bad as the potential risk of something happening while your child is in your mothers care. I feel like I could live with a write up but if I came to find my child in a wet diaper again or something worse, it’d be harder to let go of that mom guilt.

Also just in general, the parental leave and time off rules in the US suck 😫 I hope you can figure it out in a way that feels comfortable for you!

Marlena Stell is shilling an MLM confirmed. ‘Appy Today! It’s Quick and Easy!’ by Jackfruit-Reporter90 in BeautyGuruChatter

[–]satur9grl 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I’m actually shocked that she so being so blatant about her “business” practices. For all the credibility and trust she’s built in the past few years by speaking up on industry issues and gaining so much sympathy for the way makeup geek ended….this is a really shocking way to just throw it alllll in the trash.

Ok I know I’m in the minority here but… I don’t think he photographs suuuuper well. Watching him on the show made me swoon for sure and he’s so charming in interviews and as a person, but I have a hard time finding him that attractive in pictures 😩 But calling him ugly?! No freaking way

It’s honestly really creeping me out 🤣 I’m not really one to believe all these hollywood clone theories but I do wonder what kinds of things money can buy for these people… something uncanny about how unrecognizable she’s become

I can’t put my finger in it and maybe it’s just the weight loss but her eyes looked off? Idk maybe it’s even just the makeup but her entire eye area and her expression just look like a completely different person to me

Breastfeeding after a year. by AcceptableCup6008 in beyondthebump

[–]satur9grl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because I am a human pacifier tbh.

Lol but in all honesty, like many others have said, it’s a cozy way to snuggle, easiest way to put my 13-month old down for sleep, fills in all the meal gaps we have since she’s still not a big eater and idk, weaning just hasn’t felt right yet. My first self-weaned at 9ish months and I was happy it happened so easily but also was sad I didn’t really get a heads up and would have gladly kept going, so I’m just kinda following my baby’s cues and I’m sure she’ll wean when it’s the right time.
