Yeah a huge step. I’m very careful about who I allow access to my friends and family.

Have they met your Gem? I think it's a big step too.

I also get why some people don't.
Depends on a lot of factors with family dynamics.

Yeah awhile back. I think right around the 2yr mark or before. I've met his immediate and extended family as well.

I'm not the type to change my mind about someone just cause friends or family doesn't like em. But obviously it makes things easier if they do support and feel the person is a good fit.

Exactly. Very well put

Happy Birthday you wonderful Leeb ❤❤❤

Never anyone.

I don’t care to introduce or be introduced

At all? How come if you dont mind me asking?

When I'm serious about her or she is a big part of my life in general. The latter can't be helped because I'm around family a lot.

I will say this. I have kids and free time is limited so I'm extra selective now. There is this rule I heard once and it just made since. Don't date any kind of person you wouldn't be ok with your own kids dating when they older.

I love that. This whole thing got me thinking about the Libra meeting them soon and I'm excited. My kids already know him so that's all good. They love him. And last year I dated an Aries for a few months. Kind of a summer thing. I ended it, and I remember sitting at my sister's, looking around at everyone, and thinking I made the right choice by not continuing with someone I wasnt really proud to be with.

Sounds a little harsh but it's the truth. My kids were kinda like, hmm, he's ok. They weren't too fond of him, lol. And now that you mention that, I absolutely would not want my daughter to date someone like the Aries.

it gives me anxiety. im not that big on full integration.

i dont want to introduce my friends & fam to someone who isnt going to be around for awhile. i also like to have separate friend group. we can have some friends in common, but i need my own.

my boyfriend seems to want to forge his own relationships with my friends & fam. at first i didnt like it but now i dont mind. he gets along with my mom very well. i allowed them to meet ~4 months into dating.

i am meeting his fam for thanksgiving & i am cautious/nervous. his parents both have aries moons so.... im scared i’ll hate them lmao

I think that's awesome that he wants to meet them and have his own relationship with them. I think that says a lot a lot about him and how serious he is about you.

What's his sign and moon sign?

And lol. We Aries Moons aren't all that bad, lmao. Maybe just a little. 😂

(Now that I have kids, it would be a big deal to me, God forbid I ever find myself back in the dating sesspool)

Stay where you are, because you seem pretty happy to me girl ❤ Dating sucks. Would not recommend, lol.

The Libra is different in a good way. We were close before and it's a long story on how this all happened that I don't want to bore everyone with.

I think I just got hit with the feels today when he took off work to come. He is the only guy I wanted to be a part of all of it since my ex husband.

I don't know how to explain it

No, I never really understood this concept.
I'm with that one person and not the whole family. By being with that one person there will be enough encounters with the family to form cooperations. It happens when it happens.

That makes sense. It should just happen whenever it does naturally

I’ve introduced 3/4 exes. But several months into it.

I’m not the type to shelter away important people. I want to integrate them.

But I’m more cautious now that I have a daughter. Like I wouldn’t want to introduce them unless I knew it would be long term. No point breaking two hearts.

I hear what you're saying about wanting to integrate someone you're with, and including them with your family. And also about kids changing the w6hile dynamic of it.

That's what I'm curious about. Well I'm curious about everything to be honest. Lol

Say one of your ex'es was no not an ex now and someone you were with today. And you were with him after you had your daughter. I know you have at least one kiddo 😁


Would you introduce him as easily as you did, or when you did. Given your current life circumstances today if it was before you had her?

I never hid her so he saw her when I was out and about with her when she was 3 and in group settings. But I didn’t formally introduce him until we were thinking of getting married. Took a year or so and then she stopped called him by his name and started calling him dad.

But I think it’d be hard now that she’s older. She’s very possessive and she’s wary of new people and she catches on better to reading situations, so I think I’ll have to be more cautious now.

Aw she's possessive? My kids get like that too to different degrees. Depending on which one, lol. What's her sign? My most possessive kids are the 2 Aries. My oldest and third born son. In different ways, they test people a lot.

I introduce an s/o to my family when it feels safe enough for me to do it. So I've only done it once because I just intuitively knew in the back of my head that past partners weren't "the one" or whatever you'd want to call them. I've only brought my current partner to my dad and brother to meet them and both like him a lot. I've never brought anyone else home to meet my family. In fact my s/o and I just went out on a double date with my brother and his girlfriend... Lol.

Yes, it's important for my partner and me to meet each other's families, but when it comes down to it, in the end we just do what we feel is right for us and we're happy. So who cares? 😂

Yeah in the end it doesn't matter what anyone thinks. Fully agree on that one ❤

I posted the question because the Libra is coming with me to meet them all. And I haven't wanted them to meet anyone I dated, even the Cap which was almost 3 years after my separation. So I feel a little overwhelmed yet really happy about it.

I don’t want to tell him how he's the only one. I know he probably knows that though. He's just too polite to say it, lol

I don't really recall seeing many Trump supporters on here besides the one user who would talk about sex and Trump in the comments, lol.

In real life, unfortunately I see and work with a lot of Trump supporters. Almost want to unfriend some people I've known for a long time because of how obnoxious they get on FB. That goes for both sides actually. I usually just try to stay out of political talk online. And mostly irl.

Areas of Jersey that almost always vote Democrat have Trump 2020 signs everywhere. The county I live in votes Republicans normally. As the majority. So i'm kind of used to it and I respect peoples opinions, and pretty much say nothing.

I already voted early. I was able to put my ballot in a drop box by the Municipal building. And I didn't vote for Trump.

Also my son wrote in Kanye. He just wanted to vote yes on legalizing weed, lol

an example of Kanye ruining elections

I couldn't talk him out of it. One less vote for Trump is the best way I can look at what he did.

Is this a big step for you when you're in a relationship? The day you introduce your significant other to your family or close friends that are like family?

Or do you bring anyone and everyone around that you date whether it's a day or 3 years?

Curious to know how most of you all view this step in a relationship since I think it must be different for everyone. Or even if you think it isn't an important step at all. All opinions welcome and valid.

You can state whatever placement you like with your answer. Because Astrology 💫💫

Ever go to pull a tampon out and it feels like it’s literally attached to your insides ?

Wtf over

Ugh yes. Also I get my period almost every 2 weeks now

I think this is the beginning of perimenopause or whatever it's called. I was looking it up and I have like 5 out of 10 symptoms.

Do any of you ladies have experience with this? I'll get it, and it can last for 2 days, or sometimes 2 weeks. The longest I've gone in the past 8 months is 18 days without getting it. And there was a few times before that of not getting it all, and not being sexually active.

Yes, me. It's been erratic as hell for about two years now. My doctor said it's not unusual to go through up to 10 years of the "pre" period. I could get tested to find out for sure if I'm in that zone or whatever, but I haven't done it.

Isn't it great? Lmao

My mom just went through this and yes she was told it was premenopause ...she just turned 50

I'm in my early 40's 😫

Like menopause isn't enough? There has to be a pre-menopause period too? Wth is up with that, haha.

I'm trying to look on the bright side here though. I know i don't want to have any more children, so at least it would be probably hella hard for me to get pregnant. Lol.

So was your Mom able to start taking anything or grt dome form of treatment for it? I'm really hoping an IUD will help control it. I don't want to go on the pill. I always forget to take it, lol.

And from what I've read an IUD works best for heavy bleeding. I used to be like a clock. Always got it every 28 days. I could even predict around what time of the day I would get it. Now it's just totally out of whack and all ovee the place.

"The Mars in Taurus female prefers the strong silent type. Her ideal man has a strong sex drive and sexual stamina. The type of man who attracts her is strong-willed and "all man", as well as sensual and stable. This woman is attracted to men who are demonstrative and affectionate"

Almost 💯 accurate
