Kids birthday presents

I need some help. My BD doesn't see why I insist on our 4 year attending a birthday party of her friend with a present. I refused to let her show up to a party without a present it just feels wrong. Am I wrong? I offered to pay him back for it because I don't get paid until the first and he's being all huffy about it. I just can't bring myself to show up without something for her friend.

We usually get something small (like $20), and then make a personal card. It doesnt matter to us if people bring gifts or not (we always request cards, or homemade artwork) and say no gifts.

I don't think you HAVE to. Like...I wouldn't mind if people came to my child's party without a gift. But I feel the same as you. I would definitely buy one if I was going to one. Only something really small though x

Hey hey!!

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 😭

"Would you judge.." posts

There are people who always flood the comments like "oh no I would never judge! Youre so terrible for judging" for literally anything and everything, even stupid things. You could say "do you judge people who eat pineapple on pizza?" and a whole group of people will comment like "oh my god you dont know if that person has allergies, maybe theyre on a pineapple-only diet, maybe they mama was a pineapple, stop judging."
Are you telling me you don't even think to yourself?? Like judging inwardly without vocalising?? Or are you a complete saint? not for a second thinking "oof what the fuck is you doing" about someone else?

Loneliness

Does anyone else feel extremely lonely at the moment with this pregnancy. Only me and my partner know and I’m 5 weeks currently. We’ve agreed to wait till our 6 week scan and then we can tell our mums but I just feel like I don’t have anyone apart from my partner I can talk to about this and I don’t feel like he can understand everything I say as a man..
