Yes, we all know the books are better, but what did the movies get right? Were there any changes that you liked? by koobearin harrypotter

She represented the ultimate injustice of the way the wizarding world oppressed elves and other magical creatures. Dobby was a rare success story.

Feeling alone even with a boyfriend. by Eskape_in relationships

[–]AMerrickanGirl 0 points1 point ago

I don't want him to feel bad for leaving me alone.

Stop being responsible for his feelings. Tell him how YOU feel and what YOU need and let him deal with it and let you know if he's having trouble dealing with it. That's how healthy relationships work.

BF never wants to hang out with my friends. by Hali_in relationships

[–]AMerrickanGirl 0 points1 point ago

You're wrong to expect everyone to be decent enough to reciprocate your kindness and consideration. Obviously your BF is something of a douche but you're expecting him to be a decent guy.

But in this case by being there you are enabling her unhealthy behavior. You would do her a favor by "helping" her try new ways of coping with her bad situation.

It's been bothering me for a long time, what to do? by MNight-in relationships

[–]AMerrickanGirl 2 points3 points ago

She would repeatedly say, on different occasions, that she “would never date any guy that had girlfriends before”

That's her crazy obsession, and if it stops her from dating a perfectly nice guy (you?) then it's her loss. But going to her with your romantic problems with Jen was a big mistake, if that was part of the "advice" that you sought from her.

Tell her how you feel but be prepared for her to say that she's not into you the way you're into her. You've been a beta male with her, acting like her friend and not approaching her romantically, so she may just not be attracted to you in that way.

Don't get oneitis. There are lots of good girls out there and Mary is just one girl, not THE girl.

Next time your mother comes crying to you, tell her to take it elsewhere. Tell her you love her but you're not her therapist and she needs to deal with this herself or with professional help.

Having woman troubles. Am I overreacting? by Okalrightokin relationships

Maybe sitting around the house every night is boring. Take her out! Go do fun things together instead of just sitting around.

Feeling alone even with a boyfriend. by Eskape_in relationships

[–]AMerrickanGirl 0 points1 point ago

It's not loving him too much, it's needing him too much.

I don't want him to feel bad for leaving me alone. I also don't want him to feel like he needs to stay with me 24/7

You are way too codependent. Look that up.

Feeling alone even with a boyfriend. by Eskape_in relationships

[–]AMerrickanGirl 1 point2 points ago

Sometimes he gets sad and thinks that I do not care enough about him because I do not call or text him when we are apart. But that's because I don't want to seem clingy and give him his space (that's what guys want, right?).

There's no such thing as what "guys" want. Every guy is different. Obviously yours is telling you that he wants more attention, so let go of your preconceived notions and listen to him!

Girlfriend ended things because I was skeptical about something she did by confusedbywhathappenin relationship_advice

[–]AMerrickanGirl 9 points10 points ago

She's ducking the issue of kissing the other guy by making this "your fault" because you contacted him.

If you've only dated for three months then this is a sign that she's not a good choice for a girlfriend. Get out now.

Get a cloth sling and just wear her around the house while she suckles so you can get on with life somewhat.

UPDATE to : Married 4 years. My wife just told me that she would be happy "never having sex again". by horny_for_my_wifein relationship_advice

[–]AMerrickanGirl 3 points4 points ago

I'm the low libido partner in my relationship. We went through months of struggling to balance his constant desire with my lack of interest. I'm going through menopause and sex started to hurt which didn't help matters.

But throughout all of this I always kept reminding myself that I'm in this relationship for a reason and I have a responsibility to be a loving partner in and out of bed. So I did what I had to do to get things back on track.

  • I went to the doctor and dealt with the hormone issue. Now sex doesn't hurt any more
  • I came to terms with the fact that I'm probably not always going to be receptive when he makes a move, but I can't get resentful about that and use it as an excuse to refuse him (like the OP's wife has done)
  • I realized that when I give a BJ or HJ, it ends up turning me on even if I wasn't the least bit in the mood when I got started

Mind over matter, people. Make sex a priority, not something you squeeze in when all of the other responsibilities are finished for the day. If you're too exhausted at night, make love on Sunday morning. If you have little kids, get a sitter once or twice a month even for a couple of hours.

Years ago I also went through lack of desire during my marriage when my kids were small and this really would have helped, but I wasn't as wise back then as I am now.

We've had some really good sex in the past few months due to all of this, so whenever he makes a move now I keep the fun times in mind as an inspiration. All is well now.

GF just got admitted to the psych ward by her parents. No idea what to do, say, or how to respond. by notpsychedin relationships

[–]AMerrickanGirl -1 points0 points ago

Many allergists seem resistant to the idea that foods can cause issues like this and they won't even test you for food intolerance. You were lucky that your doctor was open minded.

When thinjgs settle down a bit, she might need a fecal transplant (gross, I know, but it seems to help some of these undeterminate gastro issues).

Also, she should try giving up anything (and I mean anything) that contains gluten and see if it helps. The tests for Celiac disease aren't always reliable. If that doesn't help, try giving up dairy, then corn. In other words, do an elimination diet (look it up).

I wish her well. Fortunately someday she'll be out of school and able to live without depending on her psycho parents. She's lucky you're there for her.

The girls here are used to Windows 98, let's keep it like it is. Just fix it. by phlogistonin talesfromtechsupport

[–]AMerrickanGirl 0 points1 point ago

I once stopped going to a doctor because I found out that his office staff didn't have access to the internet nor did they have word processing or spreadsheet software. This was around 2006 or 2007.

It just gave me the impression that if he wasn't keeping up with modern technology he might not be keeping up with the newest medical protocols either.

If someone wanted to get into the series, would you recomend they start with the books or show? by quaxonin asoiaf

[–]AMerrickanGirl 4 points5 points ago

I tried to get my son (22) interested in the books, but he didn't even make it out of the prologue in GOT.

Finally we sat him down and watched the first episode on HBO, and now he is intrigued.

Need advice - 2 year old first separation from her father by xNeyNounexin Parenting

[–]AMerrickanGirl 1 point2 points ago

Your sister will be fine and your dad shouldn't be changing his plans because of a two year old's normal separation anxiety.

Get a big piece of colored paper and draw some squares, one for each day that her daddy is going to be gone. Decorate the paper with pretty pictures or designs (have her involved in this). In the last square, paste a photo of Daddy.

Each night before bed, have a fun little ceremony where you put an X or checkmark in the next empty box and talk about how much closer it is until Daddy gets back. This way she'll be able to conceptualize that there's a finite end to this, and she'll adopt your cheerful attitude and realize that everyone else is fine with this (right now you're all in a frenzy trying to "comfort" her and she's picking up YOUR anxiety).

Try it.

Being told yes just to spare my feelings? by Bsgriff687in dating_advice

I would change this slightly. Never ask a question that elicits a yes/no answer.

I have to take a CPR class tomorrow for my place of work and I'm a bit nervous. Any helpful hints or tips? by God_Gannerin AskReddit

You don't actually have to save someone's life at the class. Just do what they tell you.
