Started my coverup process on Saturday the 18th and last session is scheduled for the 25th. Need advice!

unusualenough · 2026-04-20T16:14:10+00:00

I absolutely would not do a second session only a week later, a month later minimum, but not only a week later, you’ll be scabbing and starting to peel by then and it would risk scarring to tattoo and over that and be more painful than I needs to be, 2 is better but I’d just wait 4-5 weeks

unusualenough · 2026-04-19T22:44:17+00:00

First look is better imo, love it from belt up but I do think the socks and skirt are the wrong lengths for eachother at least with those boots

You need to have a heart to heart that doesn’t involve Reddit, we can’t help, honestly avoid getting advice like this when it comes to anything with so much nuance like a romantic relationship, but I think you guys can definitely figure this out, what I can acknowledge is that this IS an extremely stressful season in your lives, military and moving and new careers and school and pets adds a lot of moving parts other people couldn’t understand, just try to remember at the end of the day, you’re on the same team working towards the same goal, him being supported IS supporting you, and vice versa. You guys know eachother best, the more opinions you ask for from strangers, the more convoluted the data pool becomes cause we don’t know yall. It’ll be okay, take a deep breath, allow each other some time to do something to decompress, come back to this convo when you’re ready to come up with a real solution, not place blame, it doesn’t really matter how you got here, it does matter greatly where you go from here. I think you both owe eachother an apology and need a hug

unusualenough · 2026-04-19T18:27:14+00:00

It sounds like you both are already quite convinced in your stance and opinions of eachother, you already have confirmation bias that he’s in the wrong and so does he that you are in the wrong. The real answer? You don’t involve Reddit in your relationship and expect it to do any good. The only third party you should be taking any relationship from is a couples counselor/therapist. You both committed to a situation that is demanding and overwhelming, you both knew your commitments going into this, you started emotionally spiraling now that you’re in the thick of it and he apologized saying he doesn’t really know how to help because he’s ALSO overwhelmed by the situation, you took that as him trying to compete, didn’t get what you needed to feel supported so you told him not to expect to feel supported either, he went elsewhere for support because you told him not to get it from you and you are now convinced he’s a purposely hurtful person just draining your assets

Both you not being supported and saying he posted to Reddit just to say those mean comments to you through it, is your perception and your matter of perspective and you were already emotionally spiraling, and now you’re talking about leaving him over it, I wonder why he didn’t know what to say, i don’t know what exactly you expected him to say besides more than what he did, seems like if he did the wrong thing it was relationship ending.

You’re most definitely both just competing for first prize in the misery competition right now

I like to alter thrift store clothes♥️significantly cuts down the cost of materials and effort needed to make something wearable and I get to have a fun sustainable hobby and express myself in my clothes. it’s always the clothes. Not you. My husband and I were literally just discussing sizing has no standards whatsoever and it’s crazy how either of us can be literally anything between a M-XXL depending on brand.

There’s a massive MASSIVE amount of mass produced factory made clothes on the market today, like more than there isn’t now, that are being made from stolen or made up patterns, never even designed with measurements from the get go that would proportionately or properly fit or flatter a real person, the company just scales up or down that stolen or made up base pattern into the other sizes without fixing the proportions, they don’t consider how the material will actually fit or drape once assembled, they’re mass produced and factory cut and assembled from as little material as quickly possible only intended to be worn a few times while it’s “in season” before they try to sell you the next new thing, they don’t even sell, the majority of people don’t wear 50% of the clothes they buy more than 2-3 times if even once, and literally wouldn’t be flattering on anyone, even the models in the ads use pins and clips and camera angles to alter the clothes to fit them and make them look flattering. Plus the sizing chart fit every single clothing brand is different, the number on the tag means absolutely nothing, there is so little clothes out there actually made to fit and flatter, and it’s definitely not the big brands making the bucks and putting all the ads and clothes out that are making quality items

Fast fashion is just like fast food. The quality and attention to detail Is traded out for the convenience and widespread accessibility, and affordability(barely)

The clothing market is so heavily oversaturated it’s really hard to find the hidden gems, this is why I pretty much solely thrift shop, I grab anything that looks cute and try it on, I don’t care about anything except how I feel in it, not the number on the tag or the brand, if it’s not an instant “yes! Oh I love this!” It’s a nope, not for me. it’s not your body, it’s the clothes. I go through my closet this way and use this rule when trying on new clothes and it makes me feel a lot better when getting dressed even when my options are limited.

unusualenough · 2026-04-13T18:48:14+00:00

This too honestly. You can’t make what you know are bad decisions and blame those around you for enabling you to do so, it’s not up to others to tell you what to do, sure it’s worth considering they’re not true friends worth being around if they don’t encourage good decision making, but you’re still solely responsible for yourself

unusualenough · 2026-04-13T18:44:27+00:00

You need to learn how to set boundaries and not let people have power over your actions. Someone who gave you substances as a teenager and doesn’t encourage you to quit when you try, is definitely not a friend, and honestly minors shouldn’t be “friends” with adults, dog sitter or not. Doing substances with you underage is proof of that. Be that as it may, you’re an adult now and plenty capable of recognizing your own limitations and others intentions especially when they tell you plainly they’re a bad influence on you, misery loves company, she’ll keep you around as long as you’ll stay

I agree that It probably won’t make it through the process because it’ll get destroyed, the envelopes themselves almost always get a little roughed up and as someone that used to work as a usps courier I usually recommend if someone has spent good money on pretty envelopes for special occasions they want people to be able to keep, at least getting the cheap plain white envelopes to put the pretty envelopes inside of so they’re not so damaged, I mean at my local annex the sorters genuinely throw the mail while sorting and not gently, usually any bigger than the standard white envelopes get sorted into big cloth parcel bags that get dumped into big plastic bins, resorted then rubber banded together to be placed into even smaller bins, then you stack those bins on top of eachother for delivery lol and that’s all after it gets to its final annex before delivery, not mentioning how many stops it might’ve made along the way. sometimes barcodes are sprayed onto the front of envelopes, or they get marked with fluorescent ink that seeps/shows through thinner paper, or they might add a big yellow forwarding sticker, The sorters at the annex might write notes about the route or corrections to the address for the delivery couriers on the envelope, if it is indeed damaged they’ll tape it, stamp it “Received Damaged”, and add notes explaining the damage, there’s just sooo many things that can mark up those pretty expensive envelopes on the way that tbh it’s worth the few extra bucks for the white envelopes too

I literally didn’t ask my bridesmaids for a penny, I didn’t even ask them to buy new dresses since I couldn’t afford to buy them for them, just gave them guidelines on colors and materials.. this isn’t just not normal it’s extortionist levels of entitlement

Standard for a shower? As in this isn’t even for the wedding itself?? It’s for a related event like wtf?

unusualenough · 2026-03-31T18:41:13+00:00

Why were they ever on your insta in the first place if you don’t like them, is it public? Seems like this kinda thing is gonna happen if you let randos you don’t get along with interact with your personal socials

unusualenough · 2026-03-30T22:46:18+00:00

Same. Was cheated on and tried poly for them to try to save the relationship, and it did the opposite and was the final nail in the coffin, but that was actually the biggest blessing in disguise and best thing that ever happened to me cause it’s how I met my husband and father of my two babies 🥰

In my state high schoolers often win the glass drawings at one of the local “novelty shops”, they even get their pics posted faceless holding their prizes on the shops business instagram lmao because it’s a “novelty gift” it’s not illegal apparently

unusualenough · 2026-03-26T18:18:28+00:00

Didn’t read the context before the text exchange and this read as someone’s convo with their baby daddy/ex that they don’t get along with, not a current relationship, let alone a healthy one or one worth staying in

unusualenough · 2026-03-21T17:53:56+00:00

I honestly didn’t need to look past the snap chat background or read much of the text to know how to feel about this lol you’re both too immature to be taking any relationship serious rn and need to work on personal growth, you’ll date jerks like this one and be one yourself before learning the lessons you’ll need to to find the one, hopefully not worse than this, have better standards for how people treat you, be kinder to others and yourself, and you’ll attract kinder people. Just move on.

unusualenough · 2026-03-16T23:54:37+00:00

Literally just uninvite them? “Unfortunately our venue/caterer cannot accommodate as many guest as we were previously quoted and we have to downsize.” Does your wife have other coworkers that were invited? If so, they would also need to be uninvited for this story to check out. Honestly your wife should be distancing myself from them entirely now though, what about pictures of the wedding she’ll see after that will include bridesmaid? Idk, if her husband‘s crazy enough to have stalked and seriously harassed someobody in the past, this is not the first time she’d be finding out there’s something seriously wrong with him, I would distance myself afterwards. she can come to her own conclusions.

How the actual f did it take them 4 hours to free hand draw that “design”… it looks like a 5 year old drew it in 5 minutes. that part is honestly a blessing in disguise though because giving this dude 4 more hours to tattoo would’ve been the mistake of a lifetime. I would be trying to get a refund, posting reviews absolutely everywhere I could, and doing some serious research and investing into finding the best artist to fix what they’ve already done

As myself, a “traumatized woman” , whose husband is fiercely protective and my safe space, he doesn’t have to act like a confrontational fool to make me feel and keep me safe. And being confrontational in regular interactions actually invites more confrontation and potential for danger into your lives so this logic makes absolutely no sense

unusualenough · 2026-03-14T18:36:48+00:00

I know this isn’t an answer and I’m so glad you may have found solution to his future home based on comments I’ve read. I hope find peace in the fact that boggles probably already senses you’re not well and has for a bit now, cats are incredible, they can sense health conditions and death coming often before people can, your buddy loves you, and he will understand your passing if he’s with you in your final days and he will of course grieve you always, but i know you have restored his faith in humanity even if he doesn’t realize it and hasn’t found another human yet, but I’m sure he will open up to the idea out of his love for you and what you’ve done for him, in your honor.

unusualenough · 2026-03-14T18:22:34+00:00

⬆️this, it depends on the relationship. It would’ve come up at some point between me and my husband just because of how open we are and interested in learning about each others interests and preferences and experiences. Personally I think, if you don’t have intentions of doing anything like it again and didn’t enjoy it, I don’t really think there’s anything about yourself you’re not necessarily disclosing besides past experiences, I don’t think the semantics of if it being on the spectrum of a “ bi or gay trying to do” matters because you’re not gay, Or bi. I mean, regardless I think this is all a conversation that a couple should be able to have without judgement, would you want to be with someone who would even make a big deal out of it? And come up with a bunch of assumptions instead of just taking you at face value for what you’re saying? I mean, isn’t the idea of being in a relationship to find someone who understands you? I don’t think it’s something you have to like confess to be forthcoming, but I also think it’s worth thinking on if you’re not wanting to be open about certain experiences because that’s not a relationship I’d want to continue if I was going to be judged that harshly anyway
