Hi all
I have depression and fibromyalgia, some days I’m sorta okay but others I need a lot of rest
I find people either judge me or make fun of me for needing to rest while my child is in daycare
Rest is so important and some of us need more than others. I don’t see why people are so judgmental and expect us to be robots who work 24/7
Makes me really sad 😞
Anyone else relate?

I have the same plus bad migraines and more.
I think it’s because they don’t have the same opportunity to rest… or “ luxury “. I can’t wait to have the time to rest again. One starts headstart soon and I’ll still have a baby with me but as of rn GIRL I BE EXISTING OFF 2-5 hrs a sleep a day in pain!
( I get it , I miss sleeping before babies ) wake up from a 1 hr nap and be worse off because my body didn’t get enough sleep.

Because we live in an ableist society unfortunately.
Honestly just looking for a best friend 🫶 I’ve been having such a hard time making friends lately, and I just want someone I can talk to about literally anything, send random updates to, laugh with, and actually keep in touch with. Even if we’re long distance, I don’t care 😭 No forcing it, just a genuine friendship that’s consistent.

My husband and I were about to have X. He had been scrolling through Xual content on Twitter, which made him horny, and then he wanted to penetrate me straight away.
There was hardly any cuddling, touching or foreplay, so I wasn’t aroused or wet enough. I asked him to wait so I could get some lubricant because I didn’t want penetration to hurt.
He immediately became angry, got dressed without saying much and told me, “Not even a hoe has ever done that.” As he was putting on his clothes, he also said, “Don’t worry, I have plenty of ways to sort myself out.” I’m not sure whether he meant watching sexual content, finding someone else or simply taking care of himself, but it felt like a threat intended to make me feel guilty.
This isn’t the first time this has happened. He often wants to penetrate me without cuddling, touching me or taking time to get me aroused first. When I try to have a conversation about it, he turns things around and blames me.
I give him most of what he wants sexually, but I don’t feel like I receive much pleasure, affection or effort in return. I understand that intimacy shouldn’t be transactional, but I also want my comfort and pleasure to matter. Sometimes I find myself craving affection and intimacy that I’m not receiving, even though my husband is right beside me.
I wasn’t rejecting him. I simply wasn’t physically ready for penetration and wanted to use lube so it would be comfortable.
AITAH for asking him to wait while I got lubricant? What do you think he meant by saying that he has other ways to sort himself out, and was his reaction reasonable?

I need a Stage 5 Clinger best friend. 🤠
Text me about your day. Spam me with memes. Tell me the random thought you had at 2:17 PM. Call me for no reason. Let's bully each other (lovingly), overshare, and have actual conversations instead of sending "lol" every 8 hours.
Where are y'all hiding? 😂

I am so horny when my bf is at work. We have sex almost every night, but while he's at work, I'm just tingly almost the whole day 🙃

My daughter is 10 months old and I haven’t found a job yet. I’m with her all day and her dad works 6 days a week and is out the house 13/14 hours and I don’t live near any family. My friends are all in their early 20s and have their own thing going on and don’t quite understand the mum life so it’s hard to meet any friends more than once a week. Idk I’m just feeling so isolated and it’s summer holidays so no baby groups on and I’m just bored of being at home all day. I go on dog walks every day but being this alone is starting to really ramp up my anxiety. Anyone else feel the same? Think I just want to know I’m not alone in this.
