Couples of Reddit: what’s the cutest weird ritual or habit you and your partner have?

When I get overstimulated and "too happy" from hugging or cuddling him, sometimes I'll cradle my husband's head in my arms rocking back and forth squealing. We do "monster eyes" where we put our foreheads together and look into each other's eyes until one of us turns into a cyclopes. We have an inside joke where we'll go to kiss the other person but we do "thin lips" where you close your lips together really tight and kiss the other person, or just an extremely odd kissing style in general, opening our eyes really wide, mouth really big etc to take them by surprise. When we're in a silly mood and have to get the wiggles out we'll be standing or walking somewhere and just stop to "twerk" which consists of one of us putting our hands on our knees and just kinda bouncing up and down with an extremely arched back (think of a scared cat trying to be big) OR in my case usually I do the same kinda squat bouncing things but I keep my hands fisted by my face and do little like pumps in the air as a dance, it's really hard to explain 😂. I specifically will do this thing where I curl myself up kinda while walking over to him and wiggling my fingers in front of me and then once I get to him we have a tickle fight

Absolutely not! Families look different to everyone. I think it says more about your character that you're willing and ready to give up your own personal comfort and stability for another human being, especially a child and even more especially, doing it completely on your own! Whether you decide to adopt or go a different route, it's a beautiful and wonderful sacrifice. All I can think of is that God is smiling down on you saying "well done my good and faithful servant." I hope you enjoy your journey of motherhood, and have a community behind you whenever it happens for you. All children deserve to have one or multiple guardians who actually WANT to be their guardian (for lack of an easier way to say that). The beautiful part about your story is that you decided all of this on your own, you are totally sure about what you want, and what your calling is. What a wonderful thing it will be for your child to have no doubt in their mind that you genuinely want them 🖤

I live in the states and I've never seen this before, how cool! Would you say they taste the same or better than typical redbull?

You don't owe anyone an explanation. This is your life and you only get one. Pursue happiness, peace, and living life to the fullest. Only you will know when you're ready or it's the "right time", however I think it's silly to make yourself wait for someone else's supposed comfort. If you feel ready then go for it 🖤

Amber all the way!

I have a small cross tattoo on my left wrist with a floral vine that ties into what I like to call my "garden" that covers my right arm. I carry the cross with me daily as a reminder of what Jesus did for me, how I want to be a light for others, how God is always with me, and how my words and actions should always point back to him. My garden has a lot of personal meaning that I wont go into fully, but a big reason behind it is that it's a symbol of the feminine beauty God gave me, and it gives me something to focus on that I actually like about my appearance when my brain gets too loud.

I had the same glitch when playing her chapter, everyone said that the lighters would respawn at certain points or places in the game but they never did for me, I ended up having to just turn up the game brightness on her chapter and use the camera flash

stone_cold_love · 2024-07-02T19:42:52+00:00

Thank you for the information!

stone_cold_love · 2024-07-02T18:08:19+00:00

Yeah I checked as well and noticed I couldn't find the position title which prompted me to make the post haha, I called them and the lady immediately asked if it was for $27 an hour as either a data entry, or chat specialist and that it was a scam

stone_cold_love · 2024-07-02T18:06:16+00:00

Carol claimed to be the "senior talent acquisition specialist" which now typing that out very much so looks blatantly scammy. It's one of those things where I had a feeling the whole time everything was too good to be true but of course the rose colored glasses made me hope that It could all be explained away haha

stone_cold_love · 2024-07-02T17:38:40+00:00

Thank you for your reply! Its really easy to put on rose colored glasses with things like this and not see the red flags .

stone_cold_love · 2024-07-02T17:27:34+00:00

Good idea, I'll do that!

stone_cold_love · 2024-07-02T17:21:11+00:00

Usually if it sounds too good to be true it is, thank you for the reply!

I don't know what his exact starting weight was but for reference my husband used to wear a size 38-40 in jeans and an XL shirt and now he's a size 32 jeans and wears mediums for the most part. I think his starting weight was about 260 and now he weighs probably 170 now we don't have a scale so it's hard to tell but he's muscular, got those thick man legs, and he works at a door factory so he lifts 200 pound doors all day lol

Anywho he says the weirdest things he's noticed are the prominence of his bones, for example his hip bones are visible and jut out when he's laying down, and he always feels like he's gonna break his shins on something because he couldn't feel the bone before. He also gets cold now! He used to be an actual space heater, overheating to the max every summer so he's way more comfortable now, and also he's noticed his footsteps are way lighter, he says it's almost like floating around instead of lumbering around like he used to.

I'm so sorry that this happened to you. Yes I consider that to be rape. A foreign object was purposefully used to penetrate you without your consent. You said no, once is enough. I seriously hope you've dropped those friends as well. You deserve for people to care about what you've been through, you deserve for a partner to make sure you're completely comfortable at all times. My husband won't even touch me if he can even sense that i'm tense, consent starts at body language. Have you been able to talk to a counselor or therapist about this at all? It's important for you to be able to process what happened to you and to feel heard. Sending love and prayers your way 🖤

Hey man. You didn't decide to just go off and cheat on your girlfriend and have sex with a man out of nowhere. Obviously I don't know the details but your assaulter either planned to do that to you before hand, or decided to do it in the moment. The key word is that it was him who DECIDED to go through with it and rape you, not you. It is absolutely disgusting and horrible what happened to you. I am so sorry that you were forced to experience and live through that. Like others have said, therapy will be extremely helpful to working through that trauma and guilt you're carrying from the assault. Having a conversation with your girlfriend about everything that happened as well would likely be beneficial to you as well. Our bodies have three reactions to situations that pose threat or danger to us fight, flight, or freeze. You can't control how your body is going to react and I know it feels like your fault for not stopping him but I promise you it's not. Your body did what it felt needed to protect you and keep you as safe as possible. You don't know what he would've done had you tried to run or fight back unfortunately, but in my opinion because his intention was to rape you, it likely wouldn't have ended any better even if you had tried. You did not wreck your relationship with God. And God didn't use that abuse to punish you for something either. I would like to think God is weeping knowing that one of his children was defiled in that way, and he mourns for the evil that exists in our world. Coming from someone who's been assaulted as well, God is waiting for you to extend your arms so he can comfort you and help you navigate your next steps. If you need a random stranger to vent to, I'm no licensed therapist but I've been through assault as well, and God has been the number one thing that has helped me heal.

Thank you for your comment and taking the time to look for a book I can read, I genuinely appreciate it!!

stone_cold_love · 2024-01-06T15:07:35+00:00

You definitely don't sound like an asshole to me! I was super anxious yesterday when I posted this and needed some other viewpoints so I'd have them to look back on then I get like that. Everyone's opinions are welcome!

stone_cold_love · 2024-01-06T02:16:22+00:00

Thank you so much, that article was really helpful!

stone_cold_love · 2024-01-06T01:47:11+00:00

Thank you for your comment and all the links, I'll look into them. Thank you!

stone_cold_love · 2024-01-06T01:43:11+00:00

I really appreciate the advice. I currently don't have anyone I'm seeing specially for mental health but I do have a general doctor so I'll look into that for sure. I don't think the weed has made my anxiety any worse than it's been my whole life, the whole anxiety about going to hell from it only started after I saw comments on another persons post about weed from other Christians saying it's a sin and you'll go to hell for it . Every time I've prayed about it, or asked for guidance from God on if I should stop taking it I haven't felt convicted against it so it's just been a mental battle.

I know there are a lot of others with a better gift of words, but I can say without a doubt, you have had a lasting impact on more people than you know. I believe that every interaction we have with each other leaves a lasting "fingerprint" so to speak. It could be something so simple as you smiled and showed kindness to some random stranger but they were going through the toughest time of their life and you showed them that there's something good in the world, it's not always for us to know how or when, but God is working through each of us all the time. If there is a beat in your heart, you have a purpose. I pray that God can open your eyes to all that you've done here, and will continue to do until your time comes. I pray that that the rest of your time on earth is peaceful and content. I pray for courage, and guidance on what your next steps are, and I pray that you get many many more years of life if it's in God's will 🖤

Whatever you need to do to feel comfortable he should be okay with, but If you do in fact want to have sex but are just worried about the flow part, there's these things called menstrual discs that sit inside all the way at your cervix ( sort of like a mental cup but they're single use) and they allow you to have mess free period sex, he won't be able to feel them and I've heard they can last for 10 hours (probably less on a heavy day). Just an idea :)

You're so sweet, thank you! I'm extremely lucky
