Please tell me I’m not the only one…

This is me, be polite and direct. Say something along the lines of you really want to focus on your child's performance at the game. Perhaps some very light conversation about your children's strong points/weak point, hopes for the future/going pro (lol), how long they've been playing and how that relates to what your both seeing/how the kids are playing etc. Conversation should draw to a natural close soon after! But keep your focus on the game/game talking points. if they try to change conversation topics, just say I really need to focus so let's catch up afterwards.

You have to see this parent every time and you don't want to make it awkward for you or your child. Most people do understand, and if they don't... They'll leave you alone anyway for being 'weird'... :-)

You're 100% correct. I had (still do unfortunately!) similar feeling but was told time over and time again, I'll change my mind later in life when it's "too late". I wish I didn't bow to pressure from friends/ family and had the confidence to say no thank you, I know what I want for my life. 😔

Your wife sounds 10/10 and I'd be looking to make here a mother asap😂. I'm 100% with her on not wanting UFP in the house at all, someone mentioned in another comment that junk food is designed to be addictive with a dubious list of ingredients. These companies only care about shareholders and your health only to the extent they need you alive to buy their 'food'. Be grateful your wife has these values around food perhaps join her in the kitchen and learn more about creating the food you desire from scratch. I wouldn't say you're an AH but I say respect the food environment she wants to create at home. It's such a positive force having a thoughtful health conscious cook at your disposal, make that you baseline "normal" and just have your occasional junk meals at work/elsewhere.

I think coffee has a strong smell 🤷🏽 to each their own.

Absolutely!! I have some 15 year old Pax wardrobes and I thought I'd purchase an additional piece... The quality is night and day, new version has a thin layer of paper glued on chipboard that scratches and breaks if you look at it, old version, thick sturdy laminated edges that are still going strong. So disappointed. I'd rather they engineered to a quality and not a price 😩 or maybe it's aimed at the new generation that doesn't know the difference.

I think coffee 'stinks up' the area. To each their own.

Enback · 2026-01-18T09:40:07+00:00

I personally don't see a problem with this?! I'm assuming it doesn't have a strong smell, lights are on so it's during intermission. It's no different from drinking coffee or eating ice cream. Maybe she wants something closer to a light meal 🤷, counting macros, who knows!

All in one pricing... no random hidden 'voluntary but compulsory' tip for doing fuck all, and random taxes/charges added to your bill at the point of payment.

Do people find this entertaining? I found it annoying AF when I was in Turkey/ Cyprus and I walked away if they started that ish.

Enback · 2025-12-13T19:46:45+00:00

😂😂😂 I needed that 😂😄

Oh Lord... if she was ever black.

So many brown faces wearing that uniform, they'll use to carry out this work then throw you out next! Back to 'your' country...Watch this space.

Compulsory tipping /"Discretionary' service charges 😣. I'll leave a tip for excellent service not because you did the job you're paid to do. I'm in the UK.

That must be Greater Anglia or a very specific Elizabeth Line train that doesn't stop at all Stations? Do tell, I'm curious now because Romford to London Liverpool Street on the Elizabeth Line, I've never known to have such a short journey time.

Enback · 2025-04-14T04:12:54+00:00

Lol, that's not true! 😂 It's about 25-30min from zone 6 to zone 1 from east or west on the purple line. Are you an estate agent?

It's not a deal breaker at all, very much depends on the woman as a person, parenting style, whether they are financially independent without me etc. I'd much prefer if the child had a solid relationship with their biological/legal parent and I'm just another positive adult in their life rather than a replacement parent. But you never really know until you're in the situation but I wouldn't be turned off if someone said they had a child(ren). We need replacement humans someone has to do it!

Tipping just needs to be a thing of the past, entitled nonsense.

Enback · 2025-03-20T21:47:14+00:00

Eating mostly, but swimming and screaming underwater really helps too.

They are, you just need to leave them in your fruit basket for 5-7days before you eat it.

In the picture, OP has well defined proportional skeletal muscles. I would like my body to look like hers and have the same talent for swimming but I'm not genetically gifted hence my comment. I feel terrible for the objectification of OP but the comment is also a double entendre. The point is I'm just saying she looks attractive Hope that helps!

This is the body I want 👀
