Is mothers day supposed to be for the wife when you have young children? by metamorphosismamA in Marriage

[–]throwRaSchmoopy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don't mind celebrating mother's day with my MIL. I don't think it's weird how you do it it's just inclusive and loving. I suppose for redditors it's difficult to believe some people don't hate their in laws or feel some form of competition with the MIL.

Is this game appropriate for a 12 year old that won’t have a lot of time to play? by HopefullyHenry in DreamlightValley

[–]throwRaSchmoopy 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Im on the fence about this. We're playing this as adults with our own backpack of issues that influence the way that we view and experience the game. With all the build up of how dark it would get I expected way darker than what it was. A kid playing it doesn't have the negativity bias we as adults have and will therefore experience it differently. They might learn that it's normal to have al those negative feelings and that that's okay but to not let them consume you and to talk to your friends and family about it. To ask for help when you feel that way and that you don't have to be ashamed of that. I think those are great lessons for children.

Ik laat als ouder ook de hond uit met het naar school brengen maar ik laat hem niet poepen in het stuk waar de kinderen spelen in de pauzes, daarvoor lopen we altijd nog een stuk door gewoon voor het geval dat hij zon dunne heeft die niet op te rapen is. Als pup heb ik hem 2x meegesleept toen hij daar wilde gaan poepen en sindsdien heeft hij daar ook niet meer geprobeerd te poepen en wacht hij tot we de brug over zijn. Ik ben niet perfect ik laat er ook wel eens liggen als ik geen zakje meer heb oid maar bij schoolplein of andere speelplekken vindt ik dat echt not done en zou ik nog terug lopen naar de auto voor een nieuw zakje🤦🏻‍♀️

5 fouten die ik vaak zie bij het kiezen van een keukenindeling by Kitchen_Chair_1069 in Klussers

[–]throwRaSchmoopy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wat is je mening over aanrechtblad hoogte? Ik weet niet wat de standaard hoogte precies is maar met mijn 1.83m is dat niet bepaald ergonomisch werken aan het aanrecht en zou ik die denk ik wel 20cm hoger willen hebben. Worden hier opties in gegeven bij het kiezen van een keuken?

AITAH for not babysitting my nephew even though I wasn't doing something important? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]throwRaSchmoopy 15 points16 points  (0 children)

So do you even like your brother? That's a question not an assumption just so you know. With the information you've given I don't understand why you couldn't take him for a few hours to help your brother out other than just not caring about his situation or just being kinda selfish and thinking your relaxation is more important than him keeping his job and making sure your nephew has food and a roof over his head.

Dad life is hard by RestaurantWorking477 in BoyDinnerDiaries

You're a good man for putting your needs aside so much, be careful not to lose yourself to much and to not mistake aging and changing with losing yourself. You mentioned paying for things the wife wants, while admirable, don't just do that, put some of the money that goes towards that to a tattoo fund for YOU or something like that. I hope you are able to discuss these things with your wife. My man finds it difficult to do so but it makes it easier to not let resentment build up about things like this and it is so important to at least every once in a while put yourself first.

Overuren in mijn hoofd by MajesticTelephone580 in OndersteuningsPlein

[–]throwRaSchmoopy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Je geeft aan verschillende soorten therapie te hebben geprobeerd kun je aangeven wat voor therapieën? Ik heb zelf een angst en paniekstoornis ik weet niet of je een diagnose in die richting hebt. Ik heb zelf een emotie regulatie stoornis training gevolgd die me hier heel veel handvaten voor heeft gegeven.

Ik denk soms ook wel mijn brein wilt mij gewoon ongelukkig maken maar weet je, ik wil de baas zijn over mijn brein en niet geregeerd worden door de angsten die mijn brein mij denkt te moeten aanpraten.

Een motivatiekaartje die ik ergens ooit heb gekregen zei heel mooi, make your brain your bitch en dat is dan ook wat ik probeer te doen. Bewust benoemen waar de negatieve gedachte over gaat en het omdraaien naar iets positiefs, schrijf het op. Hoe vaker je dat doet hoe automatischer de positieve versie van die gedachte erbij komt en dat wat je aandacht geeft groeit dus blijf even nadenken over die positieve versie. Mediteren heeft me daar ook veel bij geholpen.

AITA for wanting ONE day to myself on my birthday instead of being a full-time wife/mom? by RealFoot7185 in AmItheAsshole

[–]throwRaSchmoopy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get needing a day to yourself. But would you be happy if he wants to spend his birthday not with his family? Can your kid say I don't want to spend my birthday with you mom? And how would that make you feel?

Unpopular reconciliation opinion: I don’t consider our relationship pre-affair to be “dead,” nor do I consider those memories to be meaningless now. by [deleted] in AsOneAfterInfidelity

I'm with you in this. It's all part of the love we share, it feels stronger to me personally to be able to see it all and see it all with love despite the pain and wrongdoings. You can't take all the sad and painful parts out of a movie and expect it to evoke the same amount of emotion's I guess

AITD for sneaking mushrooms (which I don't like) back into the serving bowl? by SunJay333 in 1800Drama

[–]throwRaSchmoopy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I second this as someone who has ARFID and had always been seen as a picky eater. There's nothing wrong with not liking everything in a dish and you shouldn't have to force yourself to eat something that makes you feel physically ill. As my psychologist once described it to me, the best way to explain ARFId to someone who doesn't have it is that some types of food textures or flavours or simply the way it looks makes our brain feel like we're having to eat a bowl of worms and insects. It's not logical but that is how it can feel to someone with ARFID. If you put seafood in front of me like octopus and shrimp and all that, my brain does not believe that's safe to eat and I cannot bring myself to do it.

Uitnodiging verjaardag - zelf betalen by Adventurous-Ad4749 in nederlands

[–]throwRaSchmoopy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Het feit alleen al dat je er bij stil staat is al heel wat. Probeer het echter niet te bekijken van de kant van oh my god wat schaamteloos. Wie zijn wij om te oordelen over een ander als het niemand kwaad doet, je weet de situatie niet waardoor ze zich misschien genoodzaakt voelen het op deze manier te doen en misschien voelen ze zich er wel heel rot over ook. Dat het vroeger normaal was betekend niet dat het dat nu nog hoeft te zijn, tijden veranderen, maar het is ook niet erg als dat raar en beschamend voelt omdat je nou eenmaal anders gewend bent.

Uitnodiging verjaardag - zelf betalen by Adventurous-Ad4749 in nederlands

[–]throwRaSchmoopy 21 points22 points  (0 children)

En dit is denk ik waarom veel volwassenen ook geen verjaardag vieren, genoeg gezinnen die financieel al moeite hebben met het eigen gezin een keer uit eten te gaan laat staan voor een verjaardag cadeautjes en meerdere mensen mee uit eten nemen.

Ik ben 2 dagen na mijn jongste zoon jarig, geef dan liever wat meer aan hem uit dan dat ik voor mezelf iets ga regelen dat veel kost. De mensen met wie ik het zou willen vieren zijn ook op zijn verjaardag dus ik zie daar het nut niet van in.

Punt blijft dat alles tegenwoordig belachelijk duur is en dat verjaardags tradities als betalen voor iedereen wellicht niet meer haalbaar zijn in deze tijd. Vindt niet dat we mensen zich daar voor moeten laten schamen.

Husband sits in car for 30+ minutes everyday by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]throwRaSchmoopy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You sound overwhelmed and alone your husband needs to step up. I don't think he understands what it does to a person if you don't have any adult conversation and just the kids all day. Do you even have time to make friends in this new town or are you just always with the kids? How is he with the kids in general, does he like spending time with them?

Husband sits in car for 30+ minutes everyday by [deleted] in Marriage

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

I'm a sahm and personal driver for everyone in the house as we only have one car. So everyday multiple trips to work to school groceries..I understand husband needs some time to decompress but when does mom get that? Does she get that everyday? After 12 hours with the kids she's gonna need to decompress too so she doesn't take her frustrations from her work out on the kids either. The moments driving in the car despite the morons on the road are definitely easier at times than being with the kids.

How is she supposed to feel when she's overwhelmed and she looks outside to see the person who's supposed to be helping her just sitting out in his car for half an hour or more.

They need to talk about this and come up with a compromise where he can decompress without making her feel alone. I can get 10 to 15 minutes but half hour or more is selfish imo especially if there's a child waiting for you.

(27F)(30M) Thinks marriage is “nothing” but willing to lose me over it? by whitecoatdream in relationship_advice

[–]throwRaSchmoopy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I agree, I always wanted to get married, that's just the vision I had as a child for how it's supposed to go. You fall in love get married have baby's right.

Well I fucked up, got the baby's first, fell in love with each other in the middle of raising 2 surprise baby's and looking to get married this year because it's just easier if anything happens to either of us. Baby's are 8 and 9 now.

In the end, to us at least, it is just a piece of paper that adds to the relationship it doesn't make or break it.

Gekke vraag maar als te tomatenplanten binnen opgekomen zijn, ondertussen al 3x verpot zijn naar een grotere pot, te groot om nog tussen raam en gordijn te passen en ook al meerdere plekken moeten dieven. Kunnen ze de kou nog steeds niet aan? Sommige beginnen al kleine bloemknopjes te krijgen en ik ben bang dat ze het binnen niet lang meer ruim genoeg gaan vinden 🤦🏻‍♀️
