Whatever weight doesn't cause the woman to think too much about it and obsess. That's my answer.

No. I meant to take DC through the practice test once or twice, I repeatedly asked the parent coordinator when they'd be testing him so I could do it a couple days before (this was in kinder), then I asked his teacher close to the end of the testing window, and she said it had been done weeks before. I was LIVID. But I guess, nbd. He got a 99, and I know it was a real one,

BE GLAD YOU DID NOT DO IT. My absolute "lending limit" is $50. My finances would not even wiggle without it and I don't worry about getting it back. If I don't, however, I never front money to that person again. Have you been hit up before by this person? Coming in at 10 grand is pretty brazen.

I guess I wouldn't want to risk ruining the friendship if it didn't get paid back. I lent BFF $300 a few years ago, I could probably get it back if I harassed her, but I decided to just let it go. 10K would be much harder to just let go

can you afford it and would it be easy to call it a loan yet in your mind think of it as a donation? I am very generous but very poor (probably linked ;) ) so I would say give it to her but only if it will not cause you angst if you never see that money again.

If you feel like giving her money, give it to her, but do not lend because you'll never get it back and the relationship will be ruined. And if you give it to her, know that she will be back for more next time she's in a bind, which will be in a few months.

Yes - if you have it and can afford it, you should do it. I did it many years ago for DF and never asked for it back. She repaid. My circumstances changed drastically and she lent me money (which I will repay this summer). That is what FRIENDS do.

Don't feel bad if she didn't ask. If you have a lot of money and wouldn't miss it, you can offer to her... She probably feels weird asking you (if she does in fact really need it for a certain reason.)

I think some men show their love instead of tell it. Of course it would be nice if he could say the words, but he obviously cares for her if he is doing math with her. You should encourage your DD to let her father know when he says something that hurts her feelings. I bet if she asked him, "Do you think I have a little brain?" he would explain that that isn't what he meant.

op: Oh, and I know he loves her so much. He just has a very poor way of showing it.

I know this is hard, but I just think if you try to intervene you will make things worse. The best thing would be for you to help your DD feel comfortable enough with your DH to talk to him on her own. If you try to force DH to tell DD he loves her, that will backfire, and if you intervene between the two of them it's no good either. But just my gut feeling here-I'm not a therapist.

op: You are smart to say that. I have actually tried before, but it doesn't seem to sink into his head. I will talk with my DD. But, I feel terrible, as I know that girls who have dads who are super warm and loving with them feel so fantastic about themselves and it sets the tone for future relationships for them. Again, I feel sick.

Ok I only ask because if he doesn't say it to you then he's probably just the type of guy who doesn't like to say it. Explain to him that you are an adult so you understand that he loves you even when he doesn't say it, but dd is a kid and she needs to be told and reassured

op: Thank you. I appreciate that. She tells me that she loves me every night at bedtime (that's because I tell her every night too :))

a dh: He's a douche. Job #1 when you are a dad is making your kids feel special, loved, brilliant and all that. (I stress about being a father to my DD sometimes because I had no sisters and am awkward around women in general but if I ever thought shared time like that made her feel badly... I'd be crushed.)
