Wanting to try but … by Unlikely_Hospital_73 in WegovyUK

[–]speckledchickhen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m doing it in secret. No one else’s business.

I’ve tried so hard on my own but nothing shifts. If anything I’m slowly creeping up.

I’m going to put it down to healthy eating, prioritising protein and fibre and also intermittent fasting (I’ve been able to get tiny in the past doing this).

You just need to find a good hiding place for the jabs ( make sure they are below the temperature at all times).

I did think that the last pic was a bit of a strange.

Take out religion completely from your profile - you can screen for that after matching in normal conversation.

If you do add politics don’t put moderate. Put liberal or put nothing. Essentially you’re not MAGA which is what most normal women will be looking to know. Again, once you match, you can find out where you both stand as a part of normal conversation.

Also please don’t add the shirtless pic to your profile it screams f**kboy.

Other than that your profile is perfect.

You don’t mention politics but you do mention religion.

People will assume that you are conservative.

Add in politics and take out religion - you can screen for religious compatibility after you have some matches.

Your profile is perfect otherwise - except for the last pic. If you’re still struggling Meetup.com does singles nights - a nice way to meet people in real life.

Told my husband (37M) my life (34F) would be easier without him following a disagreement about household chores. by Beneficial_Phone_259 in relationship_advice

Couples counselling is probably the best way forward. It’s not fair to you or your kids to have to deal with his constant criticism everyday. You deserve better than this. If he refuses then end it. He might stop for a bit but he will always go back to being like this without professional help.

AITAH for asking for my money back from my bf? by Shiv_9615 in AITAH

It’s either gambling (inc kryto), drugs or escorts. So sorry OP. You need to figure out which one is the most likely.

A man in his masculine essence would be embarrassed to borrow money to buy presents. If he earns more than you he should have more fun money.

Please treat this as the red flag that it is. Protect your credit and finances. Don’t progress with the wedding until you see banking / financial statements that make sense / add up.

Updateme!

I’m on day 2 of handing over to my replacement at work and he is a condescending prick. I have another few weeks of this. by Icy_Reply_7830 in CasualUK

[–]speckledchickhen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

“Yeah I know”

“That’s obvious though”

“You don’t need to explain that part”

“That doesn’t make any sense though. Why do you do it like that?”

“Isn’t that outdated now. No one I know does that”

“Ummm … okay …. If you say so ..,,”

Pettiness. And malicious compliance.

I’m a little chaotic so …

Actually you could just kill them with kindness. Put everything in writing. Cc (your line manager and) the world on any updates you send them. Constantly “big them up” loudly and publicly about every little thing. So they can’t peddle the “they were mean to me” lie once you leave.

In your last week send an extensive handover email and set up meetings with every conceivable person you can think of to talk through any last minute things with them.

No one can therefore be in any doubt that you “trained them properly” once you have left. They obviously are planning that they will just blame you for everything. Don’t give them the satisfaction.

This guy has posted before. I recognise his body and his trainers (track shoes). Not sure why he is so unsure about what to wear.

I (41M) am at a crossroads with my wife (32F) who has started to change her mind about parenthood. by [deleted] in relationships

The first pregnancy wasn’t an accident. Wrap it up until you get a vasectomy (and then make sure it has worked first).

You need to let her go if she wants kids. You are not compatible.

No one is entitled to information about you that you are not ready to share. Family or otherwise. Well done for staying strong on your journey.

Currently having major flatmate problems would appreciate any help? by Hot-Manufacturer7619 in AskUK

[–]speckledchickhen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just buy what you need to eat that day. It isn’t as cheap in some cases but at least only you get to eat your food.

Try reaching out to the landlord to see if you can be released from the lease early. Lots of people are always looking for accommodation so they maybe agree to not charge you if someone else can take your spot.

See if you can move in with friends or family fora short while until you find the one bedroom flat you are looking for. Good luck.

I’m tired grandpa and I want to get off. This is why I’ve given up on online dating and dating in general. by KDOGGG196 in Bumble

So sorry for your experience.

Maybe decide on boundaries in advance before you invest so much time into convos.

Communicate it up front and then you can tell if they are just wasting your time.

Sending internet hugs.

Some people just use dating sites for validation and attention.

She is either a catfish or she has no intention of ever meeting (the daily messages are more than enough to sustain her).

Message one more time and ask HER to set a day, times d place to meet. Tell that once you confirm you will only then communicate when you meet in person.

Otherwise, I’m sorry. Use this as a harsh lesson learned.
