Re: Anyone tried Ozempic

It definitely has very different effects on different people. My husband went on it the same time as his friend. Both very similar weights and both same dosage. His friend could barely eat, my husband it made zero difference to his appetite. He is now doing Human Being Diet alongside and weight is f...

Re: Tattoos which are least worst for middle aged man?

I’m a middle-aged, middle-class Mum who got a tattoo aged 17 and aged 27. I would have got another one aged 37 and 47 too but my husband wasn’t keen. He doesn’t like them but I have never ever regretted them. I got symbols that are hugely personal to me, travel related (always been my passion) and i...

Re: How do you keep your children grounded?

I’m always so conscious of this. I can’t talk across the board but a few things I stick to/think help: - I would avoid ever taking my kids on business class on a flight and in fact we have some upgrade vouchers and are flying in a separate cabin to them (they’re old enough we can do that) - I think ...

Re: Husband rude to brother in law

Hi, just to let you know I have been in a very similar situation with my husband. It wasn’t about his hair but he cannot take being teased by my sister (which is often her way of showing affection/interacting) and has also snapped before. I’ve always wondered how we’re going to recover from it but i...

Re: How do you get partner to therapy?

Hi I was in the same boat for many years and felt my husband needed to go to anger management and eventually we needed to go to family therapy. He thought that was damaging for the kids though so we went as a couple. To be completely honest though he hated every minute, it was so outside his comfort...

Re: What to do with my cheating husband?

Very well said Paulette and put better than what I was trying to get across. I should add that following on from my father’s infidelity which sadly did involve a lot of lying my brother is now in a poly-amorous relationship (he and his wife both have the same girlfriend) so no lying and all parties ...

Re: What to do with my cheating husband?

Manhere don’t disagree with you, just saying as previous posters have said emphasis shouldn’t all be on fidelity…..it should be an entire picture and that is just part of it so not always a deal breaker….

Re: What to do with my cheating husband?

I can’t necessarily give advice but I can say that having a father who was never faithful funnily enough I don’t place as much emphasis on fidelity as others might. Don’t get me wrong, I would never cheat on my husband but remember that fidelity isn’t the only vow we make when we get married, the ot...

Re: husband wants a tattoo and I am so embarrassed

Hi
As someone who has two small discreet tattoos (admittedly from many years ago) I can say I have never regretted them, I love them and they are very personal to me. Think you might need to open your mind a bit. Not all tattoos are the same and some are beautiful pieces of art.

Re: Weekly big shop?

I’ve always found it extraordinary that people do their weekly shop in Waitrose unless money is no object. We have a comfortable income but we definitely still have to watch the pennies and would only ever go to Waitrose for very specific items, e.g. their sliced soughdough which is the best! Otherw...

Re: Would you look through your daughter's phone?

I agree with Shaya. Our son who is about to turn 13 only just got a SIM card and it came with conditions that I regularly check through his phone. He’s allowed Snap Chat and WhatsApp but no other social media platforms or Tik Tok etc, it’s not allowed in his bedroom and is locked in a cupboard durin...

Re: Saying no to my sister?

Can’t you just rent the villa and then you won’t be lying when you say it’s not available? Mind you you’re then entrusting it with strangers which could be even worse 🤣

Re: Is having a 'bump' o a class night out usual?

I agree maybe approach the school first. Have also heard that the new approach by the police is to come down much harder on middle class drug use as currently all the damage is being done to one end of society while the middle class drug users turn a blind eye. Every drug user should read ‘Amexicana...

Re: Is 15, year 10 too young to go to the Reading Festival?

Day ticket is a fab compromise! I’m going for the day with my son who is 12 as priority will be the music, not the night time activities!

Re: Dyson hairdryers

So I had a Dyson hairdryer and found it slightly quicker than a regular hairdryer but not a massive difference. My main purpose was to save time as I have thick long hair. However, I then sold it and upgraded to the Air wrap. Completely agree with previous poster cannot for the life of me work out h...
