I have been banned from TER. LOLLLLLLL They were not happy with my choice. I did nothing to deserve it. This was planned out shit from men with an ego. I'm not gonna sit here and act like I'm a fucking DV woman. I'm thinking of disputing it with the credit card company. Being that bitch. They act like they have provided me funds this year and like I should salute them. Not 1 cent came from your stupid site!!!! Help me or don't!!! We all need money.
They didn't like my choice of not merging accounts.
OH so we're just gonna merge a bunch of cheap asses? RIGHT? One was upset he didn't get BBFS from another girl he poorly rated. Guess what that means....I'm gonna have a shit review. I am ready for heroin at this point. FUCK YOU men.
Lie down and being treated like crap. How unfair! Like I'm a bad person. These men try to torture and shut everything down for me until I'm in a damn tent in LA....FOR how LONG do I have to tolerate this!?!!
I am here for money. Jesus fucking christ.
This is my full time job. These guys love to fuck my life up even more. Can't wait till I get a nursing job. I'm so pissed off and exhausted from these guys and their BS.
Sorry to hear that sweetheart.

Omg
I got so mad at my partner I worked myself up and only slept 4-5 hours.
Now I have a severe migraine.
He is putting my medicine in the mail box for a drive by lol.
I need some time before interacting .

Some of that time last night from being up until 2:45 a.m. was things like " breaking up with partner who has a kid " and various other themes. I wish I would have read some of these articles 6 months ago. ;/
There was this woman who wrote onto a forum with the SAME issue as me ( she felt like after a certain time only being with your partner only 50% of the evenings it just couldn't add up to continuing with monogamy for her ). She had all these other problems though that J doesn't such as dealing with scheduling that was imprecise and finance issues. I think I cried on that one ! Anyway ...... I am trying to hang in haha. My partner MADE that adjustment I asked for 8 weeks ago and I went nuts last night after just ONE night was compromised. Yeah clearly I need to get in with my own therapist.
One thing I have turned a corner on is that 2 months ago I let my request for counseling slide. He made a change after 7.5 months together to give me what I consider to be a normal schedule ( sleeping next to him 4-5 nights a week ). I wish I would have done the change AND the counseling. I feel like couples counseling ( even every 10-14 days ) would be really helpful for us. It's not like he has had a gf post divorce. I have never dated someone with a child. It seems like an expert set of eyes could be incredibly useful. I just deeply regret letting my request for it go . I read this other thing that describes couples who don't tackle issues head on as " sweeping everything UNDER your living room rug and then being surprised when you can't walk SMOOTHLY across it ".

^its new territory for you both
Like 95% of dudes I dated in the last few years have kids.
I’ll admit I prefer dudes with OLDER kids. Mfs that are self sufficient (or about to be) and almost out of the house, my house lol
And the scheduling can be a hassle. Although I prefer it when L has his kids so I can have my alone time.
So I feel ya.
L has younger kids n I tried not to get too attached to them or be around them too much cause if I need to leave I want it to be as painless as possible

Miss P : If you REALLY want to try to circle this with him ( and I don't know if I would despite his emotional capacity ) you can ASK him how he would feel about only getting his thighs, balls , first 1/2 inch or so or his dick touched. If you left the top half of his dick out entirely that is the only way to duplicate the experience for him ! Just tell him no clit touching = you will not be touching the top half of his dick EVER in any way!
Like ...... THAT is the womans experience if the clit is not involved . This isn't the latest breaking news either. This information has been around for years.
You can explain that your clit is the top half of " your " dick lol. Maybe not in that language hahahaha.
Good point. Men seem to only understand concepts they act clueless about when you equate something to their dick n balls.
Girl I wanted to destroy his entire place twice when he tried to make me feel like I’m the oddity because HE doesn’t know where a clit is and that no women he’s ever banged (all 3 of them lol) needed clit stimulation. :banghead:

IF what he is saying is even remotely accurate. I have a feeling an article may have been “ left open “ or a pamphlet strewn about haha.
I feel for you BUT it is so strange too he is doing it. If you end up in counseling I would lead with it.
To be honest I see it as semi - abusive too.

^ Yeah sometimes I am kind of like “ he does treat me very well during our time “ BUT what IF our time was also extended by more self sufficient type kids ( such as ages 14-18 ) IF I could ever even stand to attempt this again.
Also .... the home schooling factor.
You add his guilt in ( he makes quite a bit but won’t pay a helper like Noon to 4 on workdays for example just to get more full focus ).
He can afford Nanny type help but won't do it out of guilt so I am seeing him stress and focus at his job suffer while the two of them are at home during business hours together.
New territory there.
No one expected the homeschooling thing ( covid stuff ) to last this long.
Then I hear and see this stress of not being fully focused.
I’m going to even give 90 minutes out of my workday tomorrow because he has this huge presentation to do in front of key people in his company. Instead of hiring help I guess *maybe* he could have been ok popping a movie in but I offered to assist in business hours this *one* time.
There is just no way he is doing this work day tomorrow ( presenting ) without FULL focus. Even if I’m losing a couple hours on this one.
Team playing you know.
I’ll help him protect his $$$$ and we can talk later, ha.

Omg, a customer for vanilla job pissed me off. He called screaming. He said he accidentally put too many commas while filing his taxes. He meant to put $50k instead of $50 million as his income. He e-filed it last week and wanted me to cancel that return, as if I have some majic power to be able to do that. I told him that the IRS isn't even processing taxes until February 12th and he'll have to wait until they process or reject it and then he'll be able to amend it. I offered him their number. This answer was met with a slew of more yelling and cussing. He wanted me to call the IRS for him and tell them that he made a mistake. I can't legally do that. He wasn't understanding and kept on swearing. We're not allowed to hang up on customers and are supposed to just let them vent and apologize. That was one long, frustrating 2 hour call. I just help people with software issues, tech issues, or simple tax stuff. I'm not the IRS, nor do I have any secret inside connections! My tummy hurts thinking about taking any more customer calls today. I have 5 more shift hours. T_T

His procrastination tendencies hit him in his ass this morning when his brother told him buy stocks for swing/day trading and he realizes he can’t do it cause he didn’t do what I said to do which was set up the fn account.
Now he’s scrambling to get it done.

thats sucks when crazies act crazy over the phone cause they know there is no consequence.

i bet they were faking it.
and when Bertha stopped fucking him for two years, I doubt she’d just abruptly give up dick for that long if it was THAT good.
i did want to rage and felt it was abusive that he went into denial (that his sex game isn’t as strong as he’d like to portray), insisted that we continue to do it HIS way (which consists of him laying there, in the dark, at night, boring boring boring) because he was too close minded about sex toys n masturbation, and insinuated that it was “my problem” by suggesting none of his past 3 partners had issues with cumming from penetration only and so I should go to a doctor.
i finally had to say look mf if I’m stress about work/money/other responsibilities I won’t be in the mood, I’m using a vibrator whether you like it or not, and you need to Focus on the clit!!!!
carmen_b
01-27-2021, 09:00 AM
Yeah I think even once a week for a few hours to give him more full focus at work would really help. I make more hourly than what a Nanny would cost so I can't give up any time during M - F 9-5:30 business hours ( except in very rare exceptions / emergencies ). I will say that he does REALLY well with it but I think some help could be a game changer. I will probably look for an afternoon activity group or homeschool type group in the area. I think part of it is that instead of doing this research and getting her out of the house just one afternoon a week his approach is more like " I'll just survive today ". I worry it could *eventually* affect his job performance. I do trust him to judge it though.
The schedule change they did *seemed* good . He would have one weekend day with her ( Sun. and then Tues. / Wed. )
His ex doesn't work ( gross lol ) so we all thought it seemed like a good idea to let her have three home school days ( Wed - Fri ).
Then they do 50% of the Saturday to even out the schedule.

01-27-2021, 09:12 AM
Hahaha. Explain it's him! Is he down to use toys with you?
He FINALLY accepted using a vibrator.
at first he was weird about it like “no! You should cum from my dick only” and “vibrator only with me n only on rare occasions”
the last time we used a vibrator he was just sitting there holding it like he’s fucking inspecting a car or something, fucking drooling on my pussy to where it was too wet to feel the vibrator and he was shaking the vibrator (wtf) and pressing it too hard into my clit (again wtf). Then the damn battery died midway
so it was an epic fail lol
im going to have to school his ass.

I have been going on dry spurts where we go long times without sex and I told him why. He gone have to start following instructions or access to these divine fountains of pleasure will be gone forever.
I’m also having to learn myself too. Learn how to tell dudes what I want without feeling reserved about it.
Ima be out the next month or two if he don’t improve QUICKLY

01-27-2021, 09:22 AM
^ I’m not trying to be an ass either with my suggestions.
Just pointing out you were clear about wanting finance and sexual improvement and that he thought it was ok to ignore those requests ( to me it isn’t ok to ignore your partners requests if reasonable ). You were straight / clear about what you wanted.
miss.a.p1600
01-27-2021, 10:11 AM
^good point!
I guess I question myself sometimes like am I conveying my thoughts n feelings clearly? It probably wouldn’t hurt to reiterate so I am CRYSTAL clear. Lol
He admitted that he procrastinates on things (I get it we all do sometimes) but if your REALLY want something you will take action and not just give a bunch of empty “I’m gonna do this” etc.
I notice he’s been REALLY serious about the gym and his physical health which is good. But I think part of his motivation is that it’s easier to control/improve weight/health + attention he gets (possibly to attract other women)
If he were as serious about improving his finances and sex skills ...... I wouldn’t be ranting on here as much.

How do you even fuck up THAT badly? You would have to add 3 extra zeros to go from 50K to 50 million. And every time I’ve done my taxes online, you go through HOW many screens where you have to see and approve of the information and numbers?? Was he just fucked up out of his mind when he did them? Sounds like his problem.

Right! I think he must've been on drugs of some sort. I wanted to hang up so bad but I can't because this vanilla job is my main income source right now. There are so many verification screens that I'm not sure how in heck somebody of sound mind could screw up like that.

It's kind of funny.
I need to hire a hair and makeup artist for a client of mine on Feb. 13 and this is typically SO easy to source. So many women want the gig . THIS one has been a pain . I REALIZED what everyone is doing. No one wants to take the job because I think they are holding out that their partners might book something for THEM on Feb. 13 - 14 range lol. Like ..... I think I've reached 5 women so far and no one will confirm . Now I'm kind of like " hey, I'll pay a $50 cash tip MYSELF if we can just get this booked within a few hours " so I can cross this damn to do off my list.
^ So ..... I know 5 chicks at least that will be pissed at their dudes if they are not going large scale for V-Day hahahah. I didn't even ask them to work on the 14th ! We are talking the afternoon ( early at that ) the 13th !

No calls all day at vanilla job until I was switching my status to offline for the day. The program leader hit me with multiple duplicate warnings to my email about making sure to not miss any calls. Pssh, I sat there in available status, waiting all day. Now that I've wasted my time, I've got kids to feed and other stuff to do, than to be stuck on what would probably be an hour or longer call. Then I'd be penalized anyways for working over my scheduled time. I'm not liking vanilla job world. I miss the pre-pandemic days of being on my own schedule with no one to answer to.

I was really hoping my business would make just $2,000 a month Jan. and Feb. ( my bills are low and I can " make it " on that ) and not have to deal with PUA .
I hoped to officially rebound in March business wise. But I made $1100 in deposits / retainer for future work leaving me short this month on just paying bills / survival.
Is money EVER going to be normal ? I feel so upset often . :/

She “ couldn’t handle “ parenting for two days out of her 4 days last week so we had J’s daughter 5 days in a row.
No problem ( extra time ) but of course no notice lol.
Then she announced she isn’t going to monitor their kid when it comes to school . So yesterday the daughter did no homework and is behind.
Wtf ? Why would someone be ok with their own kid getting behind in school ? It just seems so bizarre. Now J is stressed. :/

I swear I done talking about this but I just had an aha moment! I was soo sad when I last saw you know who. I felt horrible but I didn’t know why after I left. I’m just realizing now a few more digs he made at me. I just wanna cry. I have no idea why one day he was in love with me and the next day tearing me down. He probably has a personality disorder. Could be a “nice narcissist” too. I just had to say something because I thought I was crazy until now and was really triggered by what he said.
If I had to go with my gut. I think he was trying to push me away. Raising the white flag. I’ll never speak to you again. You got what you wanted.
All the things be said was running through my head and I felt like shit. Now I’m like, “oh okay. Nothing he said was true. He was just being dick.”
I dodged a bullet. Now I just need time and space and I’ll be okay.
Thanks for letting me share. I’m going to try to not go down that rabbit hole anymore.

Trying to find new bookshelves has been a nightmare. Apparently people don't need them anymore??? Like... I understand that e-readers are a thing now, but I still buy mostly physical books, and ffs, people use shelves for other reasons. But furniture stores don't sell them anymore apparently. Even Walmart and Target have an extremely limited selection. We spent almost 5 hours hitting stores, and still came out without everything we needed. Most of the ones we could find were super expensive while being extremely narrow - like they were more for decoration rather than actually holding a book collection. The ones we ended up with are the cheap, kinda tacky looking ones, but oh well, I guess...
Cabinets galore at all these places. But a regular old shelving unit? Nope.

Buy shelves secondhand. I feel like most of the new ones available at retails are cheap as heck and fall apart. Some carpenters will build them for you if you can find someone local to sell them to you.

Workflow cheerfully announced that we're going to be busy "slammed with calls" today. After Friday's disastrous shift, with angry customer after angry customer calling, I'm dreading calls. My gastro condition decided today is the perfect day for a flare up. I can't even eat or drink anything. I have a garbage can nearby. I wish I could do pso my entire vanilla shift instead. No way I'd be able to pull that off during the daylight hours though, not with the kids awake.

It seems like we are back on track with all the adults involved agreeing that J's daughter should just simply keep up in school. ;/
Anyway ..... I feel for the ex having " mental health " struggles but I STILL don't feel it is ok to be disorganized with scheduling. Granted I have a high standard for stuff like that ( speaking up right away when flakiness ensues as to NOT let it continue ). Hopefully we are back on track and I decided to move forward with MY Vegas trip this weekend. My schedule is mine after all and if J can make it work he can join me a couple days over there.
For a long time they were pretty good I have to admit ( months of a perfectly running schedule other than one day here or there ).

Got a vanilla part-time clinical job for med school app purposes. (I swear to God, 3rd try better be the charm or I'm gonna become the female equivalent of a douchey finance bro instead)
It's so INVASIVE for a minimum wage part-time scut work position. 48 hour window to get a 9 panel drug test. Background check that wants to call all your past employers for 7 years back. Joke's on them, the resume I used is largely volunteer work or unverifiable self-employment.
They're asking for my frickin' tax returns to verify all the self-employment. I'm gonna go with.... no. I don't give out my tax returns, $ amounts redacted or no. I don't understand how that verifies shit anyway, if you're allowed to redact all your $$ amounts and "sensitive info" you're basically left with just your name and address. What's to stop someone from just downloading another copy of Schedule C and filling out a fake one anyway?
God I'm spoiled from being self-employed...

Buy shelves secondhand. I feel like most of the new ones available at retails are cheap as heck and fall apart. Some carpenters will build them for you if you can find someone local to sell them to you.
Petty annoyance- dry winter skin drama, ugh.
Aurora - check out Menard or Home Depot, they may not have the look you like, (but mostly covered up by the books?)
Or, yeah go the pre-owned route, I got a great folding bookcase that someone didn't want.. It was originally from World Market!
@Selena: that's Way Ballsy to ask for returns, + F all that other shit too!

I'm not sure what you income ( or even lack thereof ) when self employed has to do with being capable in a medial position. I'm fairly sure that kind of info collecting is illegal but I'm sure state laws vary.

J did an overshare lol !
I did this research to find his daughter a covid safe afternoon activity that hopefully she would enjoy AND would get him 3-4 hours in the house alone to focus fully on work. Then he gave the info to his ex. ;/
Dude ..... I offered YOU the free afternoon ( and offered to take daughter there if he could pick up ). YOU are the one who stands to lose a TON of $$ if not fully focused. The ex can do her own research if she needs something like this. Eh whatever if it helps scheduling stay on track I guess.

So in top of having my wisdom tooth out Friday , I somehow got my foot hit hard when getting out of shower. Ouch my foot and toe are actually bruised it hurts.
So I have not worked since Thursday because of tooth. I normally have Sun/ Mon off. These fuckers put me on schedule today because they are busy! My surgeon told me I should not do call centers for a few days as my tooth was in weird place in jaw. I log in today and it's non stop . I left I can't be bothered talking non stop to rude customers. I'm now got heat pack on face and watching tv. I hate this job anyway. I think after super busy week they will cut shifts . Ugh. My Surgeon have me a letter but states I should be good after today.

I hope you feel better soon, Chanz!
That is very painful, last year I had an extraction, not a wisdom, but I couldn't imagine talking on the phone like all that!

Trying to find new bookshelves has been a nightmare. Apparently people don't need them anymore??? Like... I understand that e-readers are a thing now, but I still buy mostly physical books, and ffs, people use shelves for other reasons. But furniture stores don't sell them anymore apparently. Even Walmart and Target have an extremely limited selection. We spent almost 5 hours hitting stores, and still came out without everything we needed. Most of the ones we could find were super expensive while being extremely narrow - like they were more for decoration rather than actually holding a book collection. The ones we ended up with are the cheap, kinda tacky looking ones, but oh well, I guess...
Cabinets galore at all these places. But a regular old shelving unit? Nope.
My friend's husband has been getting good old-fashioned huge wooden bookcases through the ap Offer Up(I think that's what it's called) for prices of $5-$40. People sell their stuff for cheap and I guess you have to go pick it up yourself. As far as shelves though, I've never had shelves that could handle holding lots of books. All my books are in stacks on the ground because the shelves I was keeping them on started sagging really badly.

Maybe you had too much on there?
The ones I mentioned (from Menards/Home Depot) I have boxes of clothes/shoes. Fairly heavy stuff.
I had some pine folding bookcases, they did warp over time, come to think of it, they did sag over time.
If it was sagging I'd think it was overloaded, but maybe it's getting old
