Wanting to go from dark brown to black, but I'm worried about a few things.
The annoying "red" you get if you don't keep dying it, and if I do stop dying it will it eventually just wash out? I'd love photos of darker henna and how it is lived in
I've read it and working through it with my partner but I want more for just myself. Does anyone have any other recommendations of similar books?
Please, unless you are in/have been in a similar situation don't comment. This is a niche situation and I am getting help elsewhere, just trying to see if anyone has been in anything similar.
I was originally no children, but gave my partner a chance and was shocked to find how much I enjoyed it. His child is almost out of home, he had him very young and very much not planned. He has him full-time. My heart changed to wanting a child of my own, he isn't certain he wants to do it again. We are working through things and also very understanding of the potential of our relationship ending.
I'm very stuck because I do want a child of my own, however I don't want to lose him but also I don't want to lose the family we currently have together as much as it isn't mine. His kid is great and we get on very well. I'm not "mum" in any way shape or form, more just a friend, and I am sad to potentially miss out on being mum. I'm torn to lose what I currently have by walking away to have a family of my own, especially since there really isn't a guarantee. I could struggle to find someone or get pregnant or having a child that is difficult or any of the various issues that come with having and raising a child.
I'm very torn, I do want this for myself but I am very well aware that you go into so much unknown by having a child. I could keep this, I could join this family that is not my own, knowing exactly what I am getting. But I don't know and don't feel I am able to give up experiencing any of it for myself.
Has anyone been in a position where they didn't have a bio child, and enjoyed joining the family that already existed? I know there is nothing like having it for yourself, but it's not just the relationship I'm walking away from.
Did you embrace it? Cover it up? When did it happen for you?
We are in discussions, it would be 4 years. I would be 32. I know for a lot of people it's still so young but I feel like I'm so behind in so many things. I'm stressed I'll have a harder time both conceiving and with the actual pregnancy. I know I don't know everyone's story, but it sucks to watch other people get to just go ahead and do it while I'm still in such early stages of having my life together.
I get really bad motionsicknes. I was trying to swim once a week, but I would get out of the water and crawl to the grass to lay down for 30 minutes and try not to die. I want to swim because I want to eventually do a triathlon, has anyone has this and overcome it?
Pinterest isn't hitting the spot for my itch. Show off your native gardens for me (if allowed)
What was the outcome? Were you the one on the fence? How did that all pan out for you? How did you come to a solution?
My partner works away, I like to make him some focaccia and other treats to take with him to work for the week. What's your favourite focaccia flavour combos I might not have thought of?
Hi all. I already work in the medical field except my role is entirely based in capital cities. The more I think of my future the less I want to be stuck to only capital cities as much as I love my job. I'm tossing up a few things but nursing seems to have the most options in terms of jobs outside capital cities.
Rural nurses, what's the experience? What advice would you give?
Rant? And asking for advice?
My partner had his child very young. They've coparented well but now the child lives with him full time. Being incredibly young he struggled a lot, but has really made something of himself. I was fine originally with not having my own, but those feelings have changed. I've spoken to him about it, and he just isn't sure he wants to go through it again. I'm trying to just let the relationship be and come back to it after a few months and see if he thinks any differently (was a discussion to really get a final answer of does he want this).
I am struggling. A lot. If he says no, it's really no skin off his back. He already had a child. He already has that family. I do not. I miss out on... Everything about it. And I want that. I am seeing a counsellor but we are yet to come up with coping mechanisms.
This might not be the right page but I'm struggling a lot. Has anyone been in a similar boat? How did you cope? What was the end outcome? If you were the one who changed your mind to a yes, what happened from there?
Im ahead of myself, but it's our first father's Day together (his child not mine). I know he isn't expecting anything but he does a lot for us both. What's an ideal father's day from your end?
I had always been a no until very recently I swung to a hard yes. I told my partner who is trying to decide if he does want to have a child with me. Now I'm facing the prospect of breaking up over not wanting the same things, I'm nervous about dating again with the end goal to be to reproduce and start a life with someone. I'm worried I'd end a relationship I really enjoy and then not actually want kids with anyone else. My partner has a child with a previous partner so it's not like he misses out if he doesn't have a child with me.
It's really eating me up. I have an appointment with a counsellor because it's really wrecking me. He hasn't decided yet and is being very supportive but I just feel stuck. I feel like I'm delaying the inevitable.
Not looking for relationship advice, it's obvious what I have to do depending on his answer, looking for ways others in similar situations coped or how the outcome worked for them.
Always curious to see how long people will spend on their commute to and from work. If it's a long commute how do you pass the time?
In Australia if it helps. I kinda just do weightlifting, I don't know much about the lore behind it or why we do things certain ways. Can anyone explain please? Curious why it changes so much
