You've gotten a lot of good advice here, but I'll echo what others have said: get your toddler involved in everything! We're not a 100% screen-free house-- my daughter does watch a half hour show as a wind down before bed, but the rest of the hours of the day, we go without. I've found that toddlers are built-in helpers. They want to be involved in everything that you're doing! I think if we set the precedent young that we want to get tasks done without them, they start to learn that their role …

Yes, this is the first time. He knows it’s an insecurity of mine, but I do think it was an honest mistake. We definitely have a bit of a back and forth as our dynamic. I’ve never poked fun at a physical feature of his, but we have a 12 year age difference so I’ve made an “old man” joke here or there before. I do think it was an accidental line cross, he’s typically very vocally appreciative of me in that way, and I think it was just a poorly timed joke.

I really like the idea of waiting three times before bringing something up, that’s very helpful! Thank you for the advice :)

No I totally appreciate it! I can see now how it would come across that way

Was not my intent! I guess I was just trying to contextualize the question. I wouldn't put myself very high in the "desirable" category. Sorry if it came across that way!

It is sometimes, and it isn't most of the time! A lot of our days do look pretty similar, but I think it's good to find joy in the simple things, and that perspective has helped! We have three different groups we see every week! One day we do story time at our library, one day we hang out with my mom friends, and one day we have a play group at our community center. The other two days of the work week we either see my in laws or run errands. It was a lot lonelier in the early days before she cou…

SAHM of a 9 month old here! This is what our day usually looks like 6AM- I wake up for the day! Go downstairs, read my Bible, do my make up, and get breakfast going for the morning 7AM-10AM- Our morning wake window! We get some family time in during that first hour before my husband leaves for work at 8. We eat breakfast together, maybe put on an episode of the office in the background, and just hang out. Once he leaves for work, we work on some house chores! I recently read a parenting book (Hu…

With the approach of your anniversary, it's definitely within your rights to ask him where you see the two of you heading in the next few years. If you two have discussed your hopes for marriage/kids in the past, then none of this should be a surprise to him! If you haven't discussed it, it's probably best to bring it up sooner rather than later. I would just ask him where he sees the two of you heading. If he says married in 5 years, kids in 10, you can let him know that that's not what you'd l…

I'm a 25 year old mother to a 6 month old! I empathize with that position a lot. None of my same-aged friends are married or even close to the kids track. And the women I'm friends with at church are all a bit older than me. It's a weird spot to be in! I agree that it can feel very lonely too. If you ever want to chat, let me know! But, I'd recommend just trying to get out to different social events. Join women's groups at your church, go to story time at your local library, and see if there are…

I had a very similar situation! I had a not great relationship with my college roommate, and I was in my university’s “honors college” which meant half of my classes were with the same 40 people. So naturally they became most of my friend group. This roommate was beautiful, loved to party, but unfortunately caused a lot of trouble (smoking in our room, throwing up, bringing hook ups back, etc.) I left for a semester in my sophomore year to study abroad, and when I came back literally none of my …

If you’re a Christian, Lori Alexander’s books are great!

I’m currently a SAHM, and I handle all of the finances! My husband wasn’t super interested in doing the finances, so when I was leaving my job we just sat down and made a budget together. I don’t usually bore him with the food/clothing/cleaning supply money talk, but we agreed on an amount for savings and “play” money every month, so I landed on my other budgets based on that. I’m the one who does all of the purchasing for the house, so it made more sense for me to handle the finances! ☺️

My now-husband and I met when I was 20 and he was 27. We’re now 25 and 32. The 7-year age difference was definitely a little bit out of my comfort zone, but we don’t even notice it now! I do think it holds true that men mature more slowly than women, so the man being the older one is less of a concern to me. Is there any reason why you want to wait until you’re 29 to have kids? My husband’s father was 39 when my husband was born, and while he didn’t have issues keeping up, it’s hard having him b…

I would try to have a heart to heart conversation with him and see his timeline. As someone else commented, I’m sure as 28 year old you’re wanting marriage and kids sooner rather than later. If this isn’t his end goal, or he won’t give specifics, it’s likely wise to look elsewhere. You don’t want to be strung along for months or years if he can’t give those things. It’s a gamble. When I met my husband (and was dating in search of one), I made it very clear that I did want marriage and kids, and …

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
