Yeah I HATE being the oldest sometimes. It's like I'm the second mom and sometimes they resent me because they're always being compared to me. I told my fam to stop doing that because then they all gang up on me later.

Awww I'd hate that too that sucks alot.:(

Pixel I think we worked the major things out by now.. :)

Blessed...your smart! I hate to say it but when you get married, you do need to take a GOOD look at his family and their values.

Thanks! That's what my mom said even though EVERYONE thought we would be engaged and planning a wedding right now.

The only value that bugs me with my current guy is the fact that he doesn't believe in God. He's not an Atheist and he was raised in church but he just doesn't believe in God (he's one of those I want to see him). I really think there's a reason why he doesn't but he hasn't given me a good enough one yet. I know he goes to church when he goes home though. On the other hand we're both on the same page in terms of our feelings about the "institution" of church. I was raised in church as well and I've really been struggling with getting back into church. I still pray (not as much as I should) but I'm definitely missing the relationships that church helped me cultivate. We were talking about this the other night and he said that he would go back to church so his children could have that safe haven and opportunity to cultivate friendships like he did when he was growing up. So that gave me a little bit of hope. We'll see it's not like I'm trying to get married tomorrow.

Def. take your time hun.
I married DH after only 1.6 yrs and at first this was sooo overwhelming.
And it's good that you're not blind to your differences either.
Don't make them more important then they are but acknowledge that they are there and what kind of problems they could cause you guys.

Yes, yes, yes...me too! Midwest swagger...would that be like Nelly! I do NOT know why but something about him...shhhhhh don't tell anybody. Notice my location says Nellyville...girl I'm in CA :lachen:

LMAO... yea everyone thinks about Nelly when I say that and it is kind of like him. It's so hard to explain but he knows just want to say and he dresses really well (not in a gay way). He's even helped me up my wardrobe game. It's sooo hard to explain seriously but the first time I got smart with him he was like yup you're a Midwest girl. From the way my neck and eyes rolled or how quick I check him about things.

I like to think that Midwest people have the best of both worlds. We have some Southern roots with a Northern upbringing.

Okay i'm possibly moving in a week depending on DH's condition.We're Military and Dh is getting out.
Why are you moving?
But I'd love to meet
 
I say hella now from hanging out with Cali kids a couple of summers ago lol.

Thanks Ella for the advice and yea the main problem with that for me is wanting my kids to have a church life but once he said that the other night I felt better.

His locks are actually about the same length of my hair now :lol:. You should see us competing when my hair is straight and flying everywhere, he just has to take his locs out of the ponytail to show off. Oh and sometimes he steals my big ouchless bands that I use for my puffs:mad:. I asked him how long he wants to grow his and he said nipple length which is like BSL in LHCF terms. So now we're trying to see who gets there first. :lol: :lol:

*sigh* All this talking about him has me missing him. He's at home for his class reunion and I'm hear with cramps and no one to rub my stomach or back so I can fall asleep.

Oh, where are you moving? Do you get to back near your family?

I'm moving because of DH's job transfer...he has been there since Jan.

Blessed I understand...I miss mine too! I sure hope you feel better soon!:(

ETA: What a nice pic of the two of you, you guys look so happy! Nice hair too...both of you!

Awwww poor thing.it's that time?
Ok... I know I'm a pusha but PLEASE check out the happy period thread... It really changed my periods and I went from a heavy cramping for 7 days to maybe 1 bad day and that's it!

But *nipple length*... loooool:lol:

pixel
All my family is in Germany and we will go up to his family in mt for a few months and then eventually move to Washington State.
Do you think we can try and meet in the next 7 days?
 
Wow yall have been having a long distance marriage since January?:eek:

Let me stop complaining he just left last night and will be back on Tuesday. I'm just being spoiled:lol:

My ex and I were in a long distance relationship, which is part of the reason he made it past 3 months lol. I really think we would've realized within 3 months that we should just be best friends and not date. I calculated the amount of time we physically spent together in the almost 2 years and it added up to about 3 months :lol: I'm so serious.

Where's Whipz?

Awwww byebye pixel,I'd hoped we could chat before you have to go to bed
But you're right WHERE is Whipz?:confused:

Blessed you two look really cute together... awwww:)
 
Yeah it's that time but this is my one day of bad cramping. I didn't know there was a happy period thread. I've had awful periods since I started I used to vomit and not be able to function the first day and a half, I would literally lie in bed in the fetal position most of the day. Thanks to my BC pills and eating differently they've gotten better.

We've been married for almost 15 yrs, this is the first time we've been apart more than three days. My heart hurts :(

Ella, are you busy this weekend...will you be around next weekend. I work during the week, so it would be hard. Let me know...I look for you or pm you tomorrow. It would be a shame to be so close yet so far :(

Okay...good night for real!!!

Yup usually I'd vomit and have digesting problems as well... let's not go into detail:perplexed :look: .
I'm sorry to hear that blessed but I feel you 100% on this.
You're right differnt eating habits made a major difference for me,as well as excercising more and drinking tons of water.
I tried to find the thread but I do think it's in the OT board.
I'll bump it for you once the board is back up.:)

Thanks! I'd appreciate it. I really need to do some exercising that would probably make it much better but I'm not a athletic kind of girl. :lol:

I'm probably suffering because I ate fast food twice last week and I haven't really had any since January. He's been a good influence in helping me change my eating habits.
