Stay at home mom

This is my first time staying at home and not working and it feels so debilitating to not be contributing financially. We are lucky enough my husband has a great job and really enjoys being the provider. He’s always offering things to spoil me but I know we can’t afford them so I just say no. It’s so sweet but I’m starting to get frustrated not having somewhat of an income. I know my worth isn’t how much I make but i was raised to believe the only lazy people don’t work and I’ll work that out in therapy one day but in the mean time, does anyone have any work from home opportunities they know about? I have a bs in public health and have 3 years experience in case management but not even entry level customer service positions will get back to me on interviewing. Does anyone have any advice?

Look for local WFH jobs in you community that will require in person training then move to WFH. Your county make have a local workforce with postings instead of using indeed, Craigslist ie

Many of the other companies are scams or overloaded with applications.

I WFH as a single mom and no childcare during COVID and had panic attacks. My son had to go in daycare by 10 months because there was no way I could do both.

My child needed my attention and sometimes I now blame his delays on also having to work and allowing him screen time.

Remember if your child got sent to daycare, those individuals would be paid. So your not “lazy.” There is no replacement of the mother when it comes to caring for the child.

Has anyone else had issues with their friends that aren't pregnant or have kids?

I have a friend at work and we've become really close over the years. But ever since I become pregnant she just doesn't understand anything I'm going through which is fine except for the fact that the past few days I have been exhausted physically and socially. We have been helping another friend out for about a month now and we've had to keep him entertained as he's going through a rough time right now and it's drained me socially . my friend at work is frustrated because I'm not talking a lot and I'm exhausted and she doesn't understand why and I'm just curious if anybody else has had issues with friends that are not going to the same thing or have gone through the same thing as you connecting with you because she's literally mad at me. She stopped talking to me at work today and I just don't understand what to do.

Anyone up for a spicy chat, I’m horny

I’ve been on this app for almost 5 years now I still can’t find one friend. I just need a friend. I’m so fucking lonely.

31 weeks pregnant and lonely

How to deal with loneliness in pregnancy when your boyfriend goes out with his friends drinking 😅🥲 I only have three friends, two are never really free and one lives back in Liverpool and has her own set of friends where she goes to raves and goes on holiday with them lol. My boyfriend is going out soon for the night as it’s sunny and I’ll just be sat here crying like every single time! When does it stop 🤣

STD rates and body count

Saw an interesting video and I’d love to hear everyone’s thoughts on this topic!

So std rates are at an all time high as we all know. Do you think the mindset that body count doesn’t matter has contributed to the significant increase of STDs and HIV?

Secondly if someone says that body count doesn’t matter do you believe they are less likely to practice safe sex compared to people who believe in more traditional values?

I can’t put all the combinations in the poll so feel free to comment just yes/no answers

Any moms in the DMV area?
