I asked a WWYD question about my moms creepy/racist husband, and limiting contact. I spoke to my mom about it, she ran to him with my concerns, and we haven't seen him since about April - which is 100% fine with me. The only thing that does kind of suck is that it damaged my relationship with my mom further, and I still don't feel I can trust her to stand up for DS, so she hasn't been around much either.
Hugs. I still sometimes feel sad about my miscarriages, especially the first, and my son is 3. I thought about it constantly when I was pregnant, but giving birth was very healing for me, and I hope will be for you too.
I rarely come to this board anymore so I just saw this. I'm so sorry you've been struggling, but am happy you're taking steps to get better! I hope things continue to improve. Sending you good vibes! ❤️
We do but only because we are limited with options.
I hate menards. They're awful. Horrible business practices and a douchebag founder.
We don't have a menards here, but the Home Depot founder is a huge Trump supporter, and Lowes pulled their ads from that show about a Muslim family, and didn't pull out after the Duggar thing, so there are really no good options in my eyes.
Four (local to me) people I know have signed up to sell LLR in the past week. One friend was ready to sign up before ever seeing anything in person. I will feel bad for all if their efforts fail, but I don't see how this is sustainable.
My mom has said some things to me that have hurt, although I think she feels she's just making observations. I had pretty bad acne as a teen and she would always point out big blemishes, as if I didn't know they were there. And once she told me I have one eye bigger than the other. Just thinking about her comments makes me sad.
A childhood friend is an addict, he's been to rehab several times and is now in jail for drug related burglary, mail theft, etc. I cut ties with him years ago but still talk to his family occasionally, nothing they have done has helped. I'm sorry you're dealing with this.
My aunt has done inpatient therapy a few times and it has been very successful. The last time was just a few months ago and I know she was in constant contact with my mom and other aunts. Hugs.
Yes. My mom and dad divorced while I was planning my wedding, although it had been coming for a long time. She went off the rails a bit and never really recovered, and as a result I've had to set some pretty firm emotional boundaries. Some of the stuff she has done and said has been pretty hurtful. She's now married to a total creeper and consistently chooses him over me and my DS. I keep her at arms length and I unfortunately don't really see that ever changing.
Bottom is rubies and diamonds in white gold for Xavier.
Top is pink tourmaline and diamonds in rose gold for Katherine.
I have this exact ring too but all diamonds. I get so many compliments on it! I love how they look stacked, I will likely do the same when I have a second.
