I washed my hair last night and my coworker said to me “you look nice today”

That said - I work in a shared office space with a bunch of people who do finance type things for people with gobs of money. All of these people dress really well. I, on the other hand, wear jeans and a t shirt every day. I’m a bookkeeper for…

House hunting cannot be easy! Neither of us is interested in owning a home (or having kids for that matter) so at least that’s 2 things I don’t need to think about.
Are you both sinking money into the house? Are you signing off on the mortgage? My unsolicited advice is to really think about it before getting…

“my day was crappy” is the next step above “ok” and “fine.”

I give you all of the internet hugs. Even though that doesn’t actually help... but I do hope you find peace and finally slay that dragon.

I didn’t recognize it as an issue until recently. Not that I refused to recognize it, I just didn’t realize it was a problem. I also grew up in a fucked up household but I didn’t start thinking of the ramifications of that until recently. Fortunately I made it out mostly unscathed, but I can sometimes see the…

No snark taken... it’s something I started thinking about at the beginning of the year.

Thanks so much for your response. It gives me a few more things to think about.
I don’t think my thoughts mean my marriage is not good, but I’m just now realizing the ramifications of not talking about feelings.

Sometimes the best things are said at the wrong time. I’m glad it worked out for the best though.

Wow, I’m glad to hear that worked out for your friend. Sounds like a dire situation. I’m also glad your husband realized that you’re in it for the long haul.
My dude has progressed from “my day was crappy” and sulking off to “my day was crappy because here is one sentence saying what happened” and sulking off. Baby…

I like how you typed out “Serious Talk”
I’m desperately trying to get the husband to have more Serious Talks with me, or hell... with anyone. The more he bottles his crap up the more I feel like I can’t bring up my own crap and now I’m on the path to wondering if I settled or if this is what it’s like for everyone.

And…

Also watched porn with my parents - I was maybe 19 or 20 though.

Me too! I’m almost done with season 2.

Hell, I use water even when I AM removing make up. My skin improved so much when I started washing my face with warm water only.
I don’t wear heavy chemical filled cakey make up though, I’m sure that makes a difference.

I sit next to the social media manager and am frequently fascinated and disgusted by what she has to deal with on a daily basis.
We were working with a company that matches influencers with businesses for a bit too, which I found hilarious. Once she spent half the day taking 100s of pictures only to have every single…

I would be thrilled if my partner came home one day and announced he had a vasectomy.

Every time I hear him speak, or read anything about him it makes it harder for me to separate the character from the actor. I’m not saying I think the character and actor are the same, but it almost makes me disrespect the work he does with Luke’s character.
No idea if that makes sense outside of my brain, but there…

I know! His interviews with the Gilmore Guys podcasts just reek of “I’ll say anything to grab attention.” This interview is the same. I’d be so fucking pissed.

Does doing in my boyfriend’s car in the high school parking lot late at night when it was totally empty and then getting caught by the cops count? Apparently somebody who lived nearby saw us drive in (the parking lot is not visible to the neighborhood, but the driveway is) and called the cops. We were in our first or…

San Diego doesn’t have separate precheck lines either.
Fortunately I didn’t pay for my precheck, I travel a lot with others for work, they all have precheck and I held out long enough to make the owner pay for it because he was sick of me leaving for the airport before every one else.

I got my approval in less than 24 hours... They send you a confirmation email with a link to check your status. It took almost a month to get the letter in the mail with the same information. I did this 2 month ago though, so perhaps it’s longer now?
