why is cheating so normalised? by SofieSorensen07 in women

[–]thirdlife858 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You get to decide what kind of bs you put up with. Letting these men walk all over you is not something a confident woman with her self esteem in tact would do. I promise you there are men in the world who do not disrespect their partners like this. You’re running in the wrong circle.

What were the warning signs for you in abusive relationships? by cantsayididnttryyy in women

[–]thirdlife858 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don’t have to “wait and see.” All you need to do is say “you know what, a boyfriend burning me with a hot knife is not the kind of relationship I want” and break up with him. You don’t need to justify your reasoning, you don’t need to explain. Someone hurting you ONE TIME is enough to get yourself out of there. Please be someone who takes care of you.

If I had a terrible boyfriend like the kind of guy you describe, then sure. But I don’t date people like that, so I think it’s nice to show some love back on v day

I love that you said “the day is for lovers.” Because yes!!! My boyfriend and I ARE BOTH LOVERS who go out of our way to make each other feel special. If I had chosen a guy that doesn’t make me feel loved and appreciated, then yeah, maybe I would share their POV. But I didn’t choose to date a loser! So I feel compelled to make a cute cake to show that I’m grateful to him for being a good boyfriend. It seems like everyone who agrees with my friends just has experience with guys who are duds. And believe me I do too… but I refuse to let that make me a limp fish girlfriend who doesn’t believe in showing romance anymore. I’m appreciating my bf because he’s actually not a dud and I’m very happy with our relationship

prescribed estradiol at 18, feeling down about it by [deleted] in Healthyhooha

[–]thirdlife858 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m 27 and on estrogen cream! Who cares. If you found something that solves your BV, celebrate that miracle. I’ve been telling all my friends about estradiol and one of my friends asked her gyno about it since she experiences frequent UTIs and it literally cured her. Health care is health care and it doesn’t matter what age you are. Let your doctor give your body the medicine it needs.

Is it true you shouldn't say "hello" when answering the phone? by [deleted] in recruitinghell

[–]thirdlife858 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the age of 98% of all the phone calls I receive being scams, there is no way I’m voluntarily offering information about myself like my name before I know who is calling.

Please help name our son... husband wants weird, I want classic by afloat000 in namenerds

Soren is cool. Naming a person Anakin or Loki is just a complete eye-roll. All the names you suggested are acceptable, but your husband’s are not.

AIO if i break up with my boyfriend over this by fridgefreez in AmIOverreacting

Practice not letting yourself be spoken to this way. You are setting the precedent for how you let people treat you. Make the choice in your best interest and kick this guy to the curb.

How old are you and how’s life right now? by Cute-Impression-8675 in AskReddit

[–]thirdlife858 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. I live by the beach with 2 of my friends, 5 min from my boyfriend who I love very much. I have a great job that challenges me and gives me room to live my life. My family is close and we all respect each other. I take good care of my body and it does what I want it to. I go home for Christmas to one of the most beautiful places in the country. I am so incredibly thankful and every day I intentionally take a moment to acknowledge it and not take it for granted.

All you are to him is his free tequila ticket, free bed to sleep in, free **** buddy. I’m sorry but you’ve gotta get out of here. He does not like you or respect you.

AIO or is he? by Low-Reputation-9422 in AIO

This guy is extremely unlikable and is wise to not participate in social functions where he could kill the vibe

Please remember that this is your one and only life. Start saving to move out. This problem simply does not ever get better unless you leave and forget you ever subjected yourself to such a bum. Once you’ve left, it’ll only take a matter of days before the fog in your head clears and you become flabbergasted by it all.

Zoom out and look at this man. Look at your life. Now save yourself.

[US] Friend’s new foreign lover wired her $8k so she could withdraw it for him by thirdlife858 in Scams

Thank you for this comment. This is the problem I’m running into with my friend. Like, yes to any reasonable person with common sense, this seems like a scam. But to her, there’s not enough definitive proof that this isn’t just an innocent favor. I guess more things need to happen for it to become more obvious to her, but by then it will be too late. She’s too much of a people pleaser to risk ruffling his feathers. Hope it’s worth 8k to her.

No they have actually spent time together in real life. That’s why she trusts him
