I know Larry happened. Please do not try to convince me otherwise. Please don't talk to me about coffee. I don't drink it. I don't caffeine. When I state my opinion, that is me chiming in on a topic. This is not me saying you suck at life if you do or feel differently. If I want to say that, I will. If I want to speak on you, I will.
I've never cut my 3 1/2 year old's hair and maybe won't for years. Her hair is crazy. But the hair around her face is juuust now long enough to get in a ponytail. I'll cut it when she wants it cut. I guess.
DS will be 3 next month and will have his first haircut then.
No reason except that I love his crazy curls so much and he has his whole life to have neat hair.
I don't know. We just don't - ever since we moved in together 7 years ago.
What would it mean if you shut the door? Nothing. It does not mean you are shutting your H out of your life. It does not mean you are not open with your H. It means privacy.
You're right, nothing would change. We wouldn't care and life would be the same. But since we don't care, we just don't.
The thought of home schooling 5 kids is my worst nightmare. I'm doing preschool shit with DD1 because $$ and I...do not have the patience. I just want to scream, "Why is it so hard to figure out scissors, idiot?!" So, I'm counting down the days until kindergarten when she's someone else's problem.

@hilarityensued I do find it hard to say no, but regardless also feel like this is what family is for. I want to be here for them when they need me. But I guess my boundaries with family are different than others because I wouldn't think twice about one of my three sisters nursing my kid if they were lactating. Or even letting them dry nurse for comfort if they needed it while away from me. It's just a boob.
But my experiences have shaped this. I have very needy babies that have wanted comfort-nursed often and it was the only way to calm them down. I guess I fear watching someone else's baby that was like that. I couldn't handle it.

I find the idea of homeschooling a little strange. I'm a teacher, but that doesn't mean I am qualified to teach my kid all of the required subjects. It kind of amazes me when parents homeschool their children when they don't have any teacher training of any kind. Just because you've been in school yourself, doesn't mean you are able to teach at the level of trained teachers.
He didn't call me immediately. He had texted me that we needed to talk. I called him first when I saw it (DS had woken for a MOTN feeding), but he didn't answer. He called me back, and that's when he told me. He said he debated telling me. He confessed that what he felt bad about was that he had a...physically reaction. I told him that it's a normal response and I wasn't mad (women who are raped can still have an orgasm).
So anyway, I felt bad that my first thought was "what did he do to incite this incident?" because I would never victim-blame a female.
well a "we need to talk" text is REALLY ominous in my world.
I still can't really collect all my thoughts on the rest of what you wrote, but it would be really odd for MH to call me and confess he got a boner in that manner. I don't know, like I said, I can't really get my thoughts in order.
Yah it freaked me the fuck out. I was so relieved that that's all that happened. I was like "oh sweet jaysus did he get arrested?!" Also he was quite inebriated by the time we talked on the phone, so, word vomit.
