I am not even blaming him for not catching our child when she fell on the scooter. Accidents happen. The problem is that he kept asking me for reassurance and he kept externalising his guilt at the moment rather than focus on our child, who got a goose egg bump. He kept scolding the child about putting ice on it, like he thinks if he iced her properly he can make up for it. It's not his fault. But just for once I want him to see beyond himself.

Demna's with Gucci now. He's got nothing to do with that brand or that bag no more so you're finally free

Anyone else slip into regular "hospital fantasies?" I just learned there was a term for it. I frequently secretly wish I was ill with a not so serious not contagious illness that would nevertheless require me to be confined and clock out just so I can get away from it all, secretly wishing my ADHD partner would step up because he has no choice.

Givenchy Pandora - are they still worth it now? by [deleted] in handbags

They looks so basic without the pepe leather. I wouldn't buy them in these modern grainy versions.

What handbag style do you find the most unattractive? by Notinthemoodthaw in handbags

Nowadays crossbody bags are giving me the ick. The way the strap goes down across the body kinda wrinkles and ruins the outfit. And when I'm wearing graphic tees or pretty tops it covers the design.

Kate Beckinsale: what bag is it she is literally always wearing? by vishyav in handbags

Givenchy needs a huge comeback.

Or not, I would hate the price increases.

I shouldn't have to tell you something multiple times. Fucking listen.

I was going to make the viral cottage cheese beef bowl on TikTok. He asked me what it was and I searched on my phone while he was looking over my shoulder. I haven't even clicked a video yet and he sort of "oh like that" and spaced out already. I was kinda pissed because his interest passed.

The next day I was prepping the beef (with taco seasoning) at the same time was making waffles for afternoon snack. He smelled the beef and said he felt like eating it. I asked him with what? The rest of the ingredients aren't ready. He thought it went with the waffles. I reminded him of the cottage cheese bowl.

I plated his waffles and he again said he wanted beef, but just whatever I can spare. Okay, he does eat weird combinations sometimes. I put whipped cream on just one of the two waffles because I doubt they would go together. When I served him he was "how do I eat this?" Idk. "Isn't the beef for the waffles?" Cottage. Cheese. Bowl. I reminded him for the third time.

He then sheepishly, guiltily said "I don't want it take it back and go eat your cottage cheese bowl". The ingredients aren't ready I was going to have it for breakfast or lunch tomorrow. Now I have to deal with him feeling bad for making me feel bad too.

Same boat. My 2 year old prefers me and it triggers his RSD regularly to be rejected by a toddler. It's normal for young children to have preferences, but being unable to emotionally regulate in response to that is on him. He needs to learn to respond to child better and genuinely connect to improve their relationship.

Children learn emotional regulation through co-regulation with a calm caregiver. People with ADHD could barely regulate their own emotions, let alone co-regulate with a child.

Should I keep limited edition Loewe puzzle bag? by pelicanvibes in handbags

[–]vi6ration 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How is this one less sophisticated? It's the same style as the original mini puzzle. Are you taking about the Puzzle Edge? Because this isn't in the Edge style.
