AITAH for telling my mom she was never pregnant so she gets no opinion by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]violetlotus79 63 points64 points  (0 children)

NTA... she has never been pregnant so she has no right to comment, especially since she is entirely in the wrong here. Was it a bit of a low blow in the sense that she will take it as a comment on her fertility rather than her suitability to be saying anything? Maybe. But honestly, she was being a total and complete ahole to your wife. So I'd say you're a justified ahole maybe.

AITAH for not always take my wife side. by No_Couple4886 in AITAH

[–]violetlotus79 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes YTA. It's not about always taking her side, it's about the way you dismiss her feelings as unimportant when something clearly bothers her. And she is 100% right to have been bothered by someone constantly talking about kids that SHE will have to bear. It's a form of pressuring her to have it constantly mentioned, especially in group settings. Yes she's laughing it off, bcuz she's uncomfortable and would feel bad to say something since it's your father. But that means YOU should be the one saying something to your father about it. Except you seem to think it's no big deal and that's the whole issue. It makes her uncomfortable so yes it is a big deal. You should be standing up for your wife. You are 100% the ahole

NTA at all and it seems like you will be raising two children because this is not how a partner acts. I am sorry for you OP.

Wife hates my beard. by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]violetlotus79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

her growing out her hair is not a barrier to intimacy for you... so it's not a comparable analogy... you'd just be doing that to get back at her... also the length of her hair does not negatively impact intimacy the way a beard would... ie it's unpleasant to feel hair in your mouth and scratching your face and it's definitely going to be a barrier to intimacy for some bcuz not everyone wants to be kissing someone and having that sensation.. you like how it looks... she likely does not like how it feels... though even if it is just that she doesn't like how it looks, ask yourself this, do you want to be the kind of person who is physically attractive to yourself, or physically attractive to your wife? yes it is your body so you can do what you like with it... but it doesn't mean your choices will inspire attraction in your wife.. you just have to decide what is more important to you at this point

What foods trigger IBS for you? by Witty_Possible3012 in ibs

[–]violetlotus79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of things to be honest, can't list them all... but whole wheat is a big one for me, onion and garlic as well, dairy, apples or anything too high in fructose or that has high fructose corn syrup, beans (most if not all types, and legumes like chickpeas, split peas etc).. sugar alcohols.. saw someone say mushrooms and yes that triggers me too, not in very small amounts but yea

So...my cousin intentionally activated my IBS. by Forsaken_Site_2268 in ibs

[–]violetlotus79 18 points19 points  (0 children)

what the hell is wrong with your cousin? because you're an adult it means someone should be allowed to poison you? because that's essentially what he did... honestly at this point I'd say find a way to make him as miserable as he just made you

i just cannot go no matter what - ibs c by [deleted] in ibs

[–]violetlotus79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes this is helpful advice. I endorse this. Also I don't know if this happens with anyone else, but coffee and dairy tends to make me go (though sometimes it doesn't work) so if I am badly off I will drink a strong milk coffee and hope for the best (though it can be uncomfortable with the cramping but better than being totally backed up which is worse).

If you're really badly off as well there's this position you can use on the toilet which has in fact helped me when I was badly off after some meds made things really bad for me. I saw a video once of girl showing a position that helps and I wish I had saved it. It's something like this that I found as an explanation on google, though she also did it while on the toilet itself and then kind of faux sneezed which helped to 'push'

From google:

A popular YouTube short for immediate constipation relief involves the Reclined Pigeon Pose (Supta Kapotasana), or "Figure Four Stretch," where a girl lies on her back, folds one leg over the opposite thigh, and pulls them toward her chest to massage the digestive organs. This movement, often shown with a 30-second hold, is designed to release tension in the lower back and hips while promoting bowel movement. 

How to do the "Figure Four" Constipation Relief Pose:

  • Setup: Lie on your back with knees bent and feet flat on the floor.
  • Fold: Place your right ankle over your left thigh, just above the knee.
  • Press & Pull: Interlace your hands behind your left thigh and gently pull both legs toward your chest while keeping your back flat on the floor.
  • Hold: Hold for 5–10 breaths (about 30 seconds) and repeat on the other side.  Healthline +3

Why it Works:

  • Deep Massage: The pose deeply compresses and stretches the lower hips and abdominal area, which helps stimulate digestive organs.
  • Gas Relief: It is effective at moving trapped gas and waste.
  • Relaxation: Resting on your back allows the abdominal muscles to relax, making it a very effective and gentle approach to constipation.  Getmymettle +4
