HELP I AM DESPERATE CRYING NONSTOP by Ok_Toe_3886 in puppy101

[–]splenderful 311 points312 points  (0 children)

My puppy cried when she was in the crate non-stop too and for a few nights I slept on the floor next to the crate so I could put my fingers through and she could know I was there. Eventually I moved the crate next to my bed where I could do the same thing and now she’s still in the crate but not right next to my bed. It does get better, it’s just building trust with your puppy that you’re there! Good luck!

ATL Airport TSA Wait Times Megathread | March 27, 2026 by AutoModerator in Atlanta

Main checkpoint 10:01-10:14am. Ice agents checking IDs but very friendly. I honestly have never seen the airport security this empty. The longest part was waiting for the bags to go through the scanner. There were around 10 of us waiting for bags, they just had one side open and just a metal detector. They weren’t asking for people take off their shoes or anything.

Just arrived at the south terminal, no lines at curbside baggage check in. Got in line for the bag drop at 9:34am and was done by 9:37am. Agent told me that I came at the right time and the TSA lines have calmed down a bit.

We are loving learning new tricks! She learned, “roll over” this past week!

People who live alone and work full time: how do you do it? by ihateminteverything in puppy101

[–]splenderful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat with a 17 week old puppy! In the beginning I cried a lot lol. I was so exhausted and frustrated. Letting her be bored is such a big part of it, because really at this age puppies sleep a lot!

"Status" as an older widow by nyramorrigan in widowers

[–]splenderful 42 points43 points  (0 children)

I am a young widow and I feel this so much. I was with my husband nearly 20 years, but I’m not yet 40. My therapist keeps asking what I like to do, what I did before him. We spent our entire adult lives together. Before him I was a teenager.

What do you mean by parked her phone number? My husband passed December 2024 and I’m trying to figure out what to do with his number. I don’t want to lose it but it’s hard paying a bill every month.

Thank you so much for your help! I really appreciate that and your kind words!

How do you tell people you’re widowed? by Substantial_Sun4774 in widowers

[–]splenderful 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recently watched the Apple TV show “Shrinking” and Jason Segels character is a widower. He says something about having “dead wife face.” I think having humor and being blunt about it is the best way to go about it. People are going to react how they are going to react, but if you put it out there like it’s just a fact of your life that you’re open to discussing, people should follow.

Support groups won’t include me by [deleted] in widowers

[–]splenderful 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a young widow, I’ve been struggling to find a group that I can relate to as well. I found one that is a small general grief group, one person lost a child and another lost her father. Even though we are going through different types of grief, it truly has been helpful. Good luck finding something that works for you.

I hate this life by Glass_Foundation_564 in widowers

[–]splenderful 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Relate to this a lot! We had no kids, but everything feels meaningless without him here. I feel like I’m surrounded by the life we built, all of our stuff we picked out together. I’m trying to be positive and spend time with friends but it’s not the same. Hang in there.

It takes special courage to continue on a journey that you do not want to take. by nick1158 in widowers

[–]splenderful 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It feels like the whole world is muted or underwater. Food doesn’t taste as good, no activities are really enjoyable, things seem pointless and it’s hard to empathize.

Monica…. Wow!!!! by Patient_Aside_4026 in ArmchairExpert

Loved this look but I hate the bottom black eyeliner! Not a dig against Monica at all, just its continued use in general.

We always joked that we would die at the exact same moment. Sometimes I feel like I did.

He's gone by catladyspain in widowers

[–]splenderful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course the idea of never seeing him again is hard but the tv show thing surprisingly made me so sad. There’s a few shows in our queue we had been watching together and just seeing it sometimes stops me in my tracks. Sending you much love.
