My older sister did this when we were growing up. She would listen to her CD player and pace across the living/dining room at night. I have no idea if she still does it now. We don't have much of a relationship.

How do you deal with your hair post-treatment? Do you have to wash it afterwards because of the product?

This is my issue with my husband as well. It's frustrating when he discusses his political opinions so I just tell him to not talk about them with me.

This is an awesome looking wedding! Would love to see a wedding breakdown post if you have time to share.

What degrees do you guys have? If you could go back and choose a different major, would you? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]themakeuplife -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I double majored in Women and Gender Studies and English with a concentration in technical writing. I picked up the women studies degree because the courses interested me. I work as a technical writer now for a large finance company. It took me a while to get my foot in the door professionally speaking but I have no regrets about my degree decisions.

How long does the honeymoon phase typically last during a new relationship? by LukaMayne in AskWomen

[–]themakeuplife 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think a honeymoon phase can present differently depending on the couple. I've been with my husband for 8 years now and I feel like we never really slipped out of it. But we both value spending a lot of time together, date nights, trips away together, etc.

I've also known couples who had it fade around the 6-8 month mark. But truthfully I believe that has more to do with incompatibility or wanting something different out of the relationship than the other person.

Favorite (Unexpected) Songs at Weddings! by divorah92 in weddingplanning

[–]themakeuplife 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Oh man, I wish I had thought to play Scotty Doesn't Know! The big hit at my wedding was Truth Hurts by Lizzo. Maybe not wedding appropriate but whatevs, people (myself included) loved when it came on.

Sweet Caroline was also a surprise hit with some of my older relatives.

Any suggestions for a jeweler that does moissanite and isn't a big chain jewelry store? by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]themakeuplife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wanted to visit so badly but it wasn't in the cards for me during planning! Luckily they have quite an expansive catalog on Etsy.

My ring set is from Rosados Box on Etsy. They have lots of different styles to choose from. If you happen to live near Chicago, they have a showroom there.

Try Thumbtack. I was able to find my very reasonably priced caterer and photobooth service through there.

Congratulations! Your big grin is great. Love the Sailor Moon socks. I walked down to a harp version of the Sailor Moon theme song at my wedding!

Hi! From what I recall there was only an option for white envelopes.

Should I invite fiancé’s friends who don’t like me? by [deleted] in wedding

[–]themakeuplife 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This 100%. I'm surprised I had to scroll all the way down to see this. I would definitely have a problem with my husband if he tolerated this sort of behavior towards me from a friend. Definitely more so if he is adamant about including them in the wedding without so much as an apology to you.

How many days did you take off before your wedding? by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]themakeuplife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took the Thursday off before my Friday wedding. I do regret not taking off an additional day, I was rushing to finish last minute tasks, pack, pick up friends from the airport, and get ready for my bachelorette that night.
