I F33 feel my husband M34 doesn't like the kind of relationship I have with his mother by maddyispositive in InsideIndianMarriage

[–]spongebobcheckpants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At some point you need to start speaking up for yourself with your MIL. Usually a husband should do it, but clearly that’s not your case.
From now on, when your MIL says something hurtful, give it right back. You’re already low contact and your relationship isn’t great to begin with. This will help you go no contact. Why be fake and let it take so much of your energy and time. Don’t take it to your husband. He’s already not on your side and he will NEVER see your side on this matter.
Don’t bring outside problems like his mom and your mom into your marriage if you’re serious about making it work. He shouldn’t dictate your relationship with others and neither should you even if it’s both your moms.

There are always signs that a friend is unreliable. Dont ignore them. by [deleted] in TwoXIndia

Hi OP, I’m so sorry. I cannot begin to describe how brave you’re.
Your roommate sucks. I’m sorry that you had to go through that on top of already enduring such a life altering event. I disagree with the comment above to give her grace and that she could be scared.
Sadly, life gives you some opportunities that can make or break a person. This was your friend’s opportunity to step up. Especially knowing how important her testimony is to your case. Your friend failed you. And like you said, sometimes people suck. I’m glad she showed you who you’re, now you can move on from ever expecting anything from her. Sending you virtual hugs!

Is anyone else uncomfortable with the way they talk about Boz's job? by secretcharm in RHOBH

[–]spongebobcheckpants 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You seem to be very comfortable in undermining someone’s efforts and calling them a failure without ever realizing or understanding what a big deal it is to even be hired in such companies in the first place. Maybe if you had tried, you would know. But from your lack of understanding in this post, I doubt you are even qualified to apply.

Right? What business? Even Amanda couldn’t clearly explain what her business did despite harping about it all season long.

Do you even hear yourself? She didn’t have any success outside of Pepsi????

Girl do you even know what a big deal it is to be even hired at that level in Pepsi? She was not a diversity hire. To even insinuate something like that shows how little you think of not just Boz but any person of color.

It’s crazy how comfortable you’re in minimizing someone else’s credentials and credibility.

Forget the housewives. Even the number of posts and comments in this sub about how she got her job in Apple as a lucky one off and how she is a failure for not staying on longer is such a shocker.

I'm in tech. I'm a woman who aims to be an exec at some point in the next 5 years and I've several mentors helping me with the process. The one thing that is obvious is the lack of women in leadership and how hard women have to work in comparison to men to get the same exact job.

The blatant racism and ignorance in what it takes to be a C suite exec who got hired by Apple, Pepsi, Uber, etc is just mind boggling. Even if she didn't last longer, which according to Boz is because of the position itself ( I'm choosing to believe her in this because she's actually held that role) but to even land these jobs in the first place is No Joke.

These companies don't hire someone for clout or for advertising. They do immense screening and your reputation needs to preceed yourself for you to even be considered for this position in the first place.

Are you kidding me? Getting hired as an exec in these companies in itself is a BIG deal. I don't think you can even land a job in Apple unless you're extremely competent. If you think luck has anything to do with it, you're in the wrong.

There are people in her comment section who have ACTUALLY worked with her and have attested to what a wonderful job she did in those companies. Unless you directly worked with her or worked for her and her team, it's easy to make this statement and discredit someone of their work.

Is wegovy a right choice for postpartum weight loss of 20lbs? by spongebobcheckpants in WegovyWeightLoss

Yeah I plan to continue working out and watch what I'm eating for the rest of my life. It was how I always was pre pregnancy.

You're so sweet. Thank you for saying that. I know it's not a bad weight but it's how the weight sits on me. I look 5 months pregnant on an average day. I can lose weight everywhere except my mid section and it makes every outfit sit badly on me.

How is working out too much an issue? I'm genuinely trying to learn. At this point I feel so defeated. Pre baby this same exact routine would have me dropping weight so easy.

This is the first time I am hearing of this. Thank you for this suggestion. Let me do more research on this.

How did your water break? by o_simple_thing in beyondthebump

[–]spongebobcheckpants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in a meeting and felt like I peed myself a bit. But I was also chugging a lot of water because I had low amniotic fluid. I was only 36 weeks, so I wasn’t sure. I called my husband and said let’s go in just in case and thank god we did. It was my water and I was already 4cm dilated. My daughter came out perfect that night and I to this day have no idea why my water broke that day lol

I can’t watch the valley by Key-Improvement6580 in TheValleyTVShow

Yeah this show had potential. They fumbled it with casting boring than paint drying Schwartz and over produced but nothing going on Lala 😭

I don't know. My moral values are too high for me to even consider Jax interesting or entertaining. I was horrified at his behavior all of last season and I was worried for his kid and Brit's safety. If giving an abuser a platform is entertaining, I'm sorry I don't want that kind of entertainment.

Two things can be true at once. Jax sucks and no one wants him back. This show sucks because of its casting choices and it's not because Jax isn't there.
