We are away every weekend, so I don't care when she comes over on the weekends, but they cook dinner together about once a week and watch tv in our living room. It's annoying to have them in our space. I don't feel at home. I have two ideas. 1. Say no more weekday cooking dates. 2. DH and I use this as date night and they give us free babysitting.

I guess I don't think of broccoli as a good omelet filler, sort of bland, nothing to offset the egg. Was there at least cheese in the omelet? And the peanut butter is an odd flavor to eat along with it. I could see maybe toast with jam or even maybe cinnamon toast alongside an omelet, but the thought of peanut butter and eggs just makes my mouth dry (though it is a protein). If I were doing breakfast for dinner, I would do a spinach, tomato and and feta omelet with whole wheat pita bread and hummus and some fruit on the side. [ Reply | More ]

It sounds to me that he is just curious. Most people learn about what they enjoy or what other people enjoy by watching porn or at least learn about sex. He also might be bisexual or bicurious. You could try asking him about it subtuly, maybe hire some lesbian porn and say you might think it would be exciting for you both to watch it, and later some gay porn and say you were curious and make him watch it with you. The most important thing is to make him feel comfortable and that you understand, Im sure he still loves you, and I'm pretty sure its just curiousity but the main thing is to be comfortable in your relationship and frank with each other, even if its not direct. Besides what's the point in investing time and energy to a relationship for longer than necessary? [ Reply | More ]

OP, I wouldn't assume he's gay. People's fantasy lives and preferences for porn are often radically different than what they enjoy or want in real life. For example, coerced or forced sex is a very common fantasy among women, but how many of those same women do you think would actually want that to happen to them in real life?

[ - ] At lunch today in my company cafeteria, I was charged $6.05, when I should have only been charged $3.60. Yes, small amount. Still, I realized the mistake the second after my card was run. I questioned it, but they assured me I had only been charged $3.60, and said they had no way of looking up what I had paid but that they were sure it had been 3.60. I asked if I could come later to ask for refund if it turns out I was charged more, and they said yes. But I have no receipt. Just called my credit card company, and they said I was charged $6.05. Would you go back and ask for refund? I'm mostly just annoyed that they couldn't fix it the moment I noticed it (because they couldn't look up what I had paid).

I wouldn't say anything if they are preparing the food for you (because then you'll get the"special sauce"). If you get the food yourself then get the refund! [ Reply | More ]

My dh realized that Wendy's was overcharging him $.50 each time he ordered b'fast with coffee there. It should have been a combo (deal) but they rang it up separately. He watched and sure enough tons of people after him were similarly overcharged. [ Reply | More ]

[ - ] Question, I was wanting to know if you could tell me if its possible for a woman to go through all their pregnancy without knowing they are pregnant and have periods and negative pregnancy tests? I was watching the show called "I didn't know I was pregnant" and wanted to know how real and accurate this show is and how something like that could happen? 15 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More ]

A friend of mine was shocked to find out she was almost 7 months pregnant! She thought she was starting menopause plus she always had a gut on her. She was over 40 and married to a tool. It's been a tough road for her, daughter is now in high school. [ Reply | More ]

This is not possible scientifically for a woman not to know and still be pregnant throughout the pregnancy. It is also not possible for the periods to continue and still be pregnant. The confirmation can be done by doing a urine pregnancy test or an ultrasound abdomen. [ Reply | More ]

Slate just had a small piece on this. It is very unusual but can happen (not with periods and neg tests, just not knowing until labor). Women with very irregular cycles / PCOS may not notice a lack of menstruation. Women who believe they are infertile or menopausal may not attribute "typical" symptoms to pregnancy. Women who are overweight may not gain much weight, if any. Again, very rare, but not impossible. [ Reply | More ]

Women will not get periods when pregnant. Period. You have to ovulate, which cannot happen when pregnant. These women are just completely out of touch with thir bodies. [ Reply | More ]

This is happening to my cousin now...7.5 months she found out she is pregnant. CRAZY! Being obese, in poor health, and on drugs helps. Never saw the show. Know one other person this happened to, same story. Not sure this can happen to a normal sized healthy person. [ Reply | More ]

[ - ] Not crazy about one of DD's best friends. She's way faster than the other kids in terms of how she talks about boys and life and her interests are very materialistic. She's also considerably richer than we are, so the clothes obsession is a problem as my daughter always wants what her friend has. She is going to a different middle school next year, and I'd prefer they slowly part ways. Anyone BTDT? How'd it go? 6 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More ]

Not well - thanks to phone/instagram they still stay in touch. Maybe don't see each other during week but plenty of requests to get together on weekends. Possibly could fade if make new friends but this didn't happen in our case. [ Reply | More ]

How old are they? We went through something similar. Luckily my dd still doesn't have a smartphone, so staying in contact via Instagram or other social media didn't happen for them. Otherwise, if your dd has access to that stuff, I agree with the other poster who said they'll probably keep in touch. [ Reply | More ]
