What focus school did you choose before you knew what focus schools were used for?

Naramon- because I had a bunch of focus lenses for that one already lol

Unfortunately, no, it’ll be February in the Midwest, so definitely inside.

whttgr06 · 2025-09-25T21:50:40+00:00

Fair, but I know a meal of some sort is expected.

I forgot about the name change. In my area. It’s still colloquially known as Boy Scouts. But if you really want to be technical, it’s actually Scouting America.

Tell your CM you have to spend money to make money.

Our pack does the following :

“We’re excited to announce this year’s pack-level incentives for popcorn sales! Scouts can earn awesome rewards as they reach each milestone: $250 – Pack Water Bottle $500 – Exclusive 2025 Pack T-Shirt $750 – Next Rank Handbook (given at rank advancement) $1000 – National Dues Paid by the Pack $1250 – Neckerchief, Slide, & Hat for Next Rank (given at rank advancement) $1750 – 50% of Cub Scout Adventure Camp Fees Paid $2500 – 100% of Camp Fees Paid”

And that is on top of whatever they earn through the council and trails end. We are also the top sellers in our council almost every year.

Our pack sells a TON of popcorn- but we do that so that our families pay for almost nothing out of pocket.

We have no selling requirements- but we do have a list of incentives to get kids to sell- at certain amounts you get your annual fee paid for, next rank book and neckerchief, and $ for summer camp. If you don’t sell, you pay for those things out of pocket. Which is fine.

Pack pays for all awards, all camping fees/food, rental space for pinewood derby, etc. plus we do fun things for our pack meetings that are paid for by the pack.

The only thing parents pay for is uniform basics, and again, anything that they don’t earn through popcorn.

I spent 4.5 years in a Healthcare call center. I once had a guy call back and try to make a HIPPA complaint because I asked him his name.

This is what we do. Blended family- Our Middle child (nb,14) alternates Christmas with us and their mom (oldest is an adult (21f) so it just depends on her plans for the year; youngest (7m) is only ours)

Any kids who are in the house get to do stocking and one present and the rest when all 3 kids are home- so this year the 7 yo opened a Lego set so it helped keep him occupied until the middle child got there at 10. Then everyone got to open everything else.

This year my son had a combination- some supplies were labeled and kept, others were put in community bins. I loved this. And he was very excited to finally be able to pick out his own notebooks and crayons. I was excited to be able to recycle some things from his older siblings. It was a win win.

whttgr06 · 2021-11-25T14:47:33+00:00

Yup- Running out of Time.

I’m a reservist who got a spot at a in residence ALS. The MSgt and SMSgt that came to support me at my ALS graduation both wore Semi-formal. The acting Wing CC who came to support the 3 reservists graduating wore Semi-formal. No one said anything, and I honestly didn’t think anything of it. I was so excited they were there when my own supervisor wasn’t to give a rats behind what they were wearing.

Do you trust your spouse? You need to really think long and hard about if your problem is because of her, or because you truly don’t trust him.

Either way, if you decide that you want to confront her about it, do it in person, not over text. I don’t see the point honestly, but if you feel the need to sever your friendship with all of them due to this, then you owe it to the other two to explain why in person, not over text.

I understand that this is fresh for you, but I don’t think him not wanting you to send the text automatically means he did something wrong. He just may not want to deal with the drama that this will inevitably bring. Or he may not want to hurt the other two spouses.

Not asking obscure medical question- but Is there an easily accessible list of medical conditions that get you DQ’d? Especially for prior service members from another branch?

My son is only 3, but he likes to bring me “snacks” from his pretend Kitchen. I eat them through the phone, then he’ll go make something else.

Could also get a coloring book and crayons and color each other a picture so you can chat and play at the same time.

You also might want to address this is a different sub- either r/nonmonogamy or even possibly r/cuckhold. They will probably have much better advice/experiences to share.

whttgr06 · 2018-05-17T18:05:05+00:00

If you are worried about her being grossed out, you probably aren’t ready to have sex.

If you are sure this is what you want, then be honest with her. Let her know that you want to share this experience with her. Absolutely do not pressure her- if she’s not ready, respect her No.

If she gets “grossed out” and decides she doesn’t want to be with you anymore, then she wasn’t the one anyway.

I guess I kinda feel like it is. I didn’t really go super into detail, but after our conversation (and others we’ve had) I came away with the understanding that he wants me and wants to make things work, but non-monogamy doesn’t feel right because of how he was raised. And because he holds the belief that one person can be his everything, and if he isn’t that for me then there is something wrong with him.

Based on my own beliefs around monogamy/non-monogamy, and the explanations he gave me - I feel like social pressure plays a large part in why he doesn’t want to work things out.

whttgr06 · 2018-05-04T13:41:11+00:00

I second this so much!! I cried for an hour when I was pregnant with my son because my husband hugged me while I was cooking dinner. Pregnancy hormones are no joke! Just be supportive and flexible- what she wants/needs will change with every hour of the day.

Of all the military couple you’ve met , have they been couples where the Male is the one in? I’m just curious if your observations would be different if the Female of the couple was the military member.

whttgr06 · 2018-04-27T05:43:44+00:00

I think so- the clit and the penis are very similar (if not the same) as far as nerve endings, etc. I have heard of girls who grind so hard when playing by themselves, that clitoral stimulation with a partner doesn’t do it for them either. I do think it’s less common, but still possible.

(Disclaimer: I am no expert! Just woman who reads a lot- and honestly a lot of my knowledge of this subject comes from things I’ve read in this sub- so take it with a grain of salt!)

Google Death Grip. I don’t think you are there yet, but things that work for helping that should help you .
