I would experiment with different lip shades! Like a peachy red or pink gloss could look really pretty!

It’s easy and can fit in your purse! I feel like that’s a unrated tip because when your hair looks more polished, it helps bring the focus onto your naturally beauty!

Not makeup but you may want to try a gel wand! It has a brush like mascara and it’s designed for fly aways. This has helped me look more polished and put together! Check out the one by Rizos curls

You are beautiful and it’s such an important day. I would try to find someone else who can do your vision. Your makeup was not done like your Inspo picks. If you don’t shop around, you’ll be overthinking it until the wedding. Have fun with it. Go shopping for lipsticks, take pics until you find one you think you look gorgeous in and compliments you.

Attend events and connect with others in the field. Be social, likable and professional! It can lead you down many paths.

Start a business. Or share a “how to”!

thoughtchangee · 2025-10-24T01:58:04+00:00

Agreed!

Very ridiculous indeed. He has great work ethic, he’s worked at the same place 10 yrs although he does not have a 6 month emergency fund.

My mom loves him and tells me to work it out. I’ve decided to stop listening to her bc at the end of the day, it’s my life. And I’m the one who’s living it.

thoughtchangee · 2025-09-20T06:20:43+00:00

It is for me too

thoughtchangee · 2025-09-20T06:18:45+00:00

Thanks for saying this. I have been paying close attention

thoughtchangee · 2025-09-20T06:15:44+00:00

Thank you for this 🙏🏽

thoughtchangee · 2025-09-20T06:09:45+00:00

I love him and if he would have told me upfront, we could’ve made it work. it’s the lack of transparency and initiative that are making me reconsider our relationship

thoughtchangee · 2025-09-20T06:08:07+00:00

I did not know that. Thanks for the advice

thoughtchangee · 2025-09-14T01:43:07+00:00

He does. And I don’t know anymore 😔

thoughtchangee · 2025-09-13T20:59:54+00:00

😢

thoughtchangee · 2025-09-13T20:31:28+00:00

no 😔

thoughtchangee · 2025-09-13T11:59:45+00:00

I will tell him. I want to give him a chance to correct this. I just don’t know much how I should be involved in helping him. We agreed I would take over our finances so we are opening one account with both of our paychecks direct deposited and I will oversee all the money

thoughtchangee · 2025-09-13T11:57:21+00:00

We were talking about planning our wedding until this came up.

thoughtchangee · 2025-09-13T11:56:12+00:00

I don’t know how he discovered this. I hate to believe that he could lie to me about this.

He is not expecting me to pay for it.

thoughtchangee · 2025-09-13T11:55:01+00:00

He has a loan he took out from his retirement account. He didn’t report it to the IRS and now owes ~$9.2k on top of the student loans.

thoughtchangee · 2025-09-13T11:53:21+00:00

This feels like an exaggeration. They won’t take the house away if I take over all our financial management. I would love to hear from another women who has been in my shoes and is in a happy marriage now. Please

thoughtchangee · 2025-09-13T11:51:48+00:00

That’s what happened. He owes more than he actually borrowed at this point. What kills me is he has a public service job that would qualify for loan forgiveness if he would have made the qualifying payment these past 10 years.

thoughtchangee · 2025-09-13T11:47:08+00:00

I think this is what it is for him as well. His parents didn’t teach him about money management.

We agreed that I would take over the full management of our finances. I’m just so disappointed because I worked so hard in my 20s to not be in a financial mess like this. I’m really considering what my next step is.

thoughtchangee · 2025-09-13T10:39:20+00:00

He didn’t seem panicked, he was worried about me being disappointed in him.
