I’ve only been married once and still married him so I can’t really say an answer.
But to me, that was something you both shared together. He wanted to marry you at that time AND picked them. why does he want them back? Does he want to re-marry with them? If so he’s a lame ass anyway. Does he want to sell them? Go work so more.

Personally I’d be questioning him as to why.

To give to another woman?
oh hell no. 😅
To sell?
Go back to work my guy. Or work harder. Usually he owes you for something somewhere.
If it’s amicable and he’s just asking and you feel no malice towards it, you get alimony, or didn’t want it etc?
Sure give em back. Whatever bye dude

Basically I told him I’ll never get back with him but I always said I was keeping them for our girls. Now he’s asking for them back.

Wedding rings aren't given conditionally 😂 give them back if you want to as they're yours to do whatever but personally, if you don't want to keep them I'd sell them 🤷🏻‍♀️

Yeh I’m now being told I’m bitter. He was the one who ruined and ended our marriage. Just because now I won’t go back because he’s finally sorting himself out I’m in the wrong 🤦🏽‍♀️

The only way I'd even consider this is if they were family heirlooms from his side but regardless I'd probably save them for our kids to use.

Wedding rings aren't given conditionally. He can take a hike!

Nope sorry dude. Too bad so sad.

I gave my ex back my engagement ring because it was an important ring that had belonged to his mother. My wedding ring, I threw in the river and never looked back 😂

It was a gift. No.

Yeh I actually hate that I’ve let this get to me. I’ve got so far I’m starting to feel like me again. After months on therapy. It’s like he doesn’t realise what he’s done to me and he’s the victim because I won’t forgive and forget. He’s destroyed me as a person and I’ve had to put on a brave face to keep a relationship with our girls as he’s only allowed supervised visits. He’s destroyed our family he chose drugs over his family he kicked me out and made me homeless with 2 kids, 3 weeks after having our second child. Now he wants to take my rings that at one point did mean the world to me because he paid for them and because I’m not his wife I don’t get to keep them. I wanted them for our girls to show that once there was so much love.

You lost it okay

NO. They were gifts given in contemplation of marriage. They are yours.

Erm no. Those rings in the UK are considered absolute, not conditional, gifts. Your rings are your own. He’s entitled to fuck all. Sell them, keep them, they are yours.

Hey bestie!

Looking for a mom bestie who actually texts back and doesn’t make it weird 😭 just easy convo, no awkward pauses, no overthinking replies like we can talk about life, kids, chaos, and random nonsense without it feeling like a job interview. Bonus if we can be funny and consistent 🫶 I want a real friend, not an off and on situation LOLL 😭

Flying when 24 weeks pregnant

Hi all, looking for some tips and advice. I need to fly for work to Germany so short haul with Lufthansa.

Am wondering if anyone else flew around this time and whether you were ok without a fit to fly note? I won't need one as I'll be before 28 weeks but wondering if anyone had difficulty proving this with the airline?

Don't want to pay for a private NHS fit to fly letters (my GP doesn't do them!) when I don't need one but also worried they won't believe me that I'm only 24 weeks (I'm quite big as it's my second!).

Did you notify the airline in advance? Wondering if I need to for any help with my bag or is this done at check in, or not done at all!

Any advice appreciated! Many thanks.

Mommy Bestie

Hi everyone! 🌸 I'm a stay-at-home mom to the sweetest 5-month-old (born Dec 13th!) and honestly I'm looking for my people. I don't have much of a tribe right now and I'd love to change that.

I'm looking for a genuine best friend, not just an online connection. Someone who's down to FaceTime, text regularly, go on playdates, and have real mommy dates too. If you're in the Toledo, OH area and want to actually hang out this weekend, please reach out! 💛

I'm also actively job searching and would love to connect with anyone who's hiring, knows of openings, or works as a recruiter. I'll be sharing my resume soon!

Don't be shy feel free to message me, and yes, more than one person is more than welcome! 🙋🏾‍♀️

I’m sooo pissed off, has this happened to anyone else?

So I have been absolutely killing it at my job. I had my performance review today and I thought I would be getting a raise because I asked my boss about it prior to this meeting. Apparently, they only had funding to hire external employees. She said she should have the funding in July or August for internal but also on that same call she asked me to train the new hires that are above me so how am I good enough to train new hires for a position that’s higher than mine but I’m not qualified to get that position. I don’t understand. My performance review was absolutely fantastic. I got exceeded expectations and my boss said only one other person at my level got exceeded expectations. Has this happened to anyone else? I’m so pissed.

Constantly attached

Anyone else finding it absolutely exhausting just being constantly attached to your baby? Literally cleaning one handed or having an audience to watch you shit, eat and shower? Feel like I don’t get more than 5 minutes away from him at the moment
