I’m struggling a little bit with what to do around setting boundaries and maintaining consistency across faces. I have a 16 month old girl who is very typical toddler behavior. I pretty much let her have free reign of the house while I’m supervising her. We have a very small house and it’s all been pretty well baby proofed. Of course, we set boundaries along the way and she doesn’t have access to everything— for example, sometimes she’ll want to grab a knife that I’m cooking with and obviously I have to say no, or she’ll try to climb the TV stand, and I have to remind her not to.
What I’m struggling with is how to consistently set boundaries on things that are allowed at home but not allowed outside. I’ll give two examples:
1) at our house, we allow her to climb on the furniture. Specifically, the couch backs up against a picture window that doesn’t open, and she likes to be able to climb and look out of it. She knows how to get on and off safely, and we never allow her to do it unless one of us are sitting next to her. We were at a neighbors house the other day, and she started climbing all over their couch. It really freaked Neighbor out because she was afraid of her falling, and also she got her shoes all over it. I obviously put a stop to it pretty quick, but my baby seemed confused and upset and my neighbor seemed a little perturbed that she started climbing on the couch in the first place.
2) like most toddlers I’ve encountered, she loves to pull things off shelves and put them back. We practice this a lot at home, where she’ll methodically pull things out and then help me put them back. We were at a coffee shop the other day, and she walked over to a shelf about 3 feet away from me and started pulling some dish towels that were on display off the rack. After maybe 30 seconds I walked over and help her start putting them away. But I was getting tons of dirty looks from a few other people in the shop. I initially didn’t think it was a big deal because she wasn’t disturbing anyone and of course I knew I was going to put them away. She tantrumed a bit but I did our “all done” ritual (a sign and a song) and was able to redirect her.
So I guess my questions are, in the scenarios above, if she’s displaying behavior like that at home and out, do I need to put a stop to it at home so that she learns not to do those things? Is it too confusing for her to have access to things at home that she doesn’t get out? I just feel like I’m giving her a lot of freedom, which of course I like, but I also know that boundaries are super important and can help a child thrive.

For context, my partner and I run 1 unit in our home, an ADU basement studio apartment with its own entrance in a popular NW city. We've been open nearly 7 years. We don't charge a cleaning fee, opting to build the cost into our nightly rate, and we clean the space ourselves.
One thing we provide our guests is a supply of individually wrapped makeup removal towelettes (Neutrogena brand, I believe). They are prominently displayed in the bathroom, so they're hard to miss.
Our linens are all white, and therefore show makeup very easily. Our laundry routine can handle small makeup stains, but our most recent guests (2 night stay) wound up leaving significant mascara stains on the towels, sheets, pillow cases, and duvet cover. Someone had used (or taken) several of the makeup removers, but the stains were still evident.
The stains seem to have come out of the towels and the rest are in the wash now. We're not confident that the bed linens will be usable for future guests, however.
We have not yet written a review for them. How would you handle this, as far as charging for the ruined linens and what kind of review do we leave them? They were otherwise lovely guests, but the bed linens are not inexpensive. What are your thoughts?

Hello! This story is about a medical accident with wellbutrin that really affected my life and I want to share. It may contain triggering topics so please be warned. Stay safe
​
When I was 19 almost 20, I was about a year into my medication/mental health journey. I had found out I was bipolar, and had ADHD, and these were the main things I was treated for. I was taking ritalin, which for a bipolar person can be a risky choice as it causes mania, as well as lithium, to control my mania. Lithium was a little too good at its job though, and I quickly became only depressed, so, I got wellbutrin. And I liked it. It helped. I felt better. And happy. We kept trying out doses, going up slightly.
​
And then, I don't know.
​
My doctor was moving me from 150mg to 300mg, and then to 450 mg. Easy enough. But, he had given me two sets of pills to achieve this. 150s and 300s. I was supposed to use them to transition upwards. Every other day, taking 300 + 150. I don't know how, but something was lost in translation. I started taking two of the 300s, thinking that was what he told me to do. I was taking 600mg (too much) everyday, and then taking 60 (sometimes 90) mg of ritalin.
I felt crazy.
I was home for the summer, but terrified of the house. Couldnt leave my bedroom after my parents had gone to bed. I kept my toothbrush in my bedroom and locked my door each night. I would see shadow people out of the corner of my eye, walking in the dark. I saw their feet outside my door. I heard them whispering in the hall.
I would sit on the ground just take tweezers and pull out all my leg hair. I dont even know why. It became a terrible habit, and a strange way to soothe myself.
While doing this, I started to hear something. It was in my head, like I was going to sleep and thinking of random things. But the thoughts weren't mine. I wasn't thinking those words.
I could hear two men arguing, and then it was like they noticed me. They knew I was listening, and they didn't understand how.
Over the next few days of exploring this new ability I heard lots of conversations, even had them recount childhood memories to me. I would hear them scream and yell at me. I would feel them inside me trying to get my attention. I would close my eyes and see impressions of screaming faces, people trying to get me. Loud yelling. Then, it was like they would possess me, and it was like I wasn't there anymore.
I didn't understand what was happening. And it only got worse.
I went on a trip with my father and forgot my ritalin. Luckily, I had more than enough wellbutrin, which I knew treated ADHD. I started taking a little extra. I would crush it to make it work like instant ritalin. If 600mg wasn't hurting me, 1000mg certainly was.
my friends would call me to play minecraft and my fingers couldnt even operate the keys correctly. I was always shaking. The voices in my head were telling me they were worried for me, and possessed me to "help". I would walk around the beach house, terrified of any dark corner or unoccupied room. Even watching my father wash dishes made me nervous he was only pretending to come scare me (why would he do that?). I heard laughter, and whispers, and there weren't in my head. It was like a person was right on my shoulder, or like I was always in sleep paralysis. I would look in the mirror and swear my reflection was doing something I wasn't.
I went home, and told my doctors. They thought I had lost it from the ritalin and took me off it. Permanently. I was livid and so sad. It had helped me so much and now they said it was making me psychotic and they wouldnt put me on it. I told them I didnt even have any at the beach. No matter what I said, they wouldn't change their minds.
My emotions were so high. I would sob and sob and scream on the phone with them. And yet no one caught what was really happening.
I stayed with my boyfriend at the time while recovering from being cut off my meds, and I would swear he got in bed with me. I could feel the bed move. feel him breathing. and then I would hear the shower cut off- I was hallucinating him. I kept feeling someone grabbing the blankets, tugging at my feet. I would look and the shadow hallucination would hide from me as all the shadow people would. Fast. Uncatchable.
I kept hearing voices. Kept feeling like they were in my head. Kept feeling paranoid every second of the day. And kept taking those pills.
And then at some point, my doctor was confirming my medications.
"Are we at 300mg of wellbutrin? or 450, right?"
"Uh, 600 I think"
"..what?"
"I take 600 in the morning"
"...what"
"I take two of the 300s. Right?"
"how long have you been doing this?"
Turns out, 600 was not the right answer. That amount can cause siezures. And I had been taking up to 1000 everyday. Everyday for over a month.
They stopped me taking it, but never brought back the ritalin. Said my mind had become fragile from the wellbutrin. I was in a full blown psychotic episode and now lost my adhd medication along with my sanity.
Without meds, my first semester that year was hard. I was tired all the time. Fell asleep at the wheel. I struggled to be an RA at college, and struggled to talk to people. My mind just felt cloudy 24/7. And it was like I couldn't think anymore, couldn't do math, or study. I was a physics major, and it seemed like that was going to be something undoable. Everything, all my memories and skills, has been scrambled by wellbutrin. I failed my classes. Almost got kicked out of being an RA.
It was like I couldn't do anything.
I have continued therapy, but within a year they diagnosed me with OSDD, and a year later full blown D.I.D (dissociative identity disorder). Of course, wellbutrin did not cause that, but I had no idea I had multiple personalities until the OD. Wellbutrin had taken down all the walls in my mind, and I had heard the personalities talking. And once the toothpaste was out of the tube, I couldn't put it back in: no matter how long I tried to ignore the voices. I had DID. I have DID.
​
I tell you all this for two reasons. For a warning: to READ YOUR INSTRUCTIONS and to never diy your doses. Make sure you write down what you need to take. And if something it wrong, go to the doctor fast and tell them whats happening. The longer, the worse damage your mind could get.
The other reason, is what I needed to hear that semester: you can get better.
It has been 2 years next month since the incident. And I have done what I thought I would never get to do. I am back on ritalin (but extended release now) and I even am back on a lose dose of wellbutrin, which I never thought I'd say. I completed my physics degree in 3 years, which is relatively uncommon, and something I would never dreamed I could do. I am alert. I am a quick thinker again. I am myself again. And I am happier than ever.
I still have D.I.D. And its something I am working on a lot. I also still have some brain scramble, not all the memories are right. But I am aware again, and what they expected to be permanent brain damage just turned into a rough memory. Now doctors have me talk to their medical students about what happened to me, and when I tell them and they gasp I am even able to laugh about it. Its become a silly story for doctors in training to learn from.
So if you had something like this happen, its gunna be okay. you can survive this. and you can get back to living your life. The fog will clear, you just have to wait for the sun.
​
AND READ YOUR PRESCRIPTIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for reading. this is a really hard incident I usually keep a secret, but it was the hardest time in my life. Please be safe with your wellbutrin, and remember, 600 is too. much. wellbutrin.

My husband and I have been doing pretty well with sobriety, but recently it's gotten tough. We hit some big milestones in the past week and in the past we'd celebrate by going out for drinks. He finally was offered a promotion at work. It's a new title with some more responsibility that he was hoping for, and the additional money is much needed. And we moved homes to a newer apartment in our community in a quieter, calmer area. Typically this kinda news and change was when we'd kick back with a much "deserved" night out on the town or fancy bottles of something for home, so this is tricky. It feels lackluster not to have that, yet I'm well aware that it's more of a reward to NOT poison ourselves than to do so and call it a celebration. I'm not sure what I'm looking for here... I suppose just needed to a safe place to vent these woes and feel understood. Thanks for reading.

Thank you everyone for you advice about going to the ER. I did end up calling an ambulance because i ended up having worse breathing problems and almost fainted. Once at the hospital doctors checked me and we're about to send me to ultrasound. As I was getting up off the bed I began to have extreme chest pain and almost fainted again. Was put back into the bed and they began to give me a lot of acid pills?. No idea why they thought I'd need acid pills for chest pains and no acid in my throat but I digress. Then my back in between my shoulder blades was in sharp pain with my chest. They just kept checking on me. Then ultrasound came and they said my LO was not using her lungs to practice breathing which caused me to be transferred to a different hospital for observation.
Once there I was kept in triage and my BP was at one point 153/109. HR was low 50s to lowest 43. Continued chest pain. Nothing changed overnight but they did give me a shot for the LO to help her start to use her lungs. In the morning I had an EKG and chest X-ray which came back normal. The cardiologist then ordered an ECHO for me and I waited majority of the day. The high risk Dr came in after my ECHO and proceeded to say if the ultrasound comes back and she's using her lungs your good to go home. I was confused since my BP was still in the 140s and my HR hadn't passed 60. Plus the results of the ECHO hadn't come back yet. But once the ultrasound came back and she was seen using her lungs I was discharged immediately. No answer on ECHO or any of the swelling pains, breathing issues, chest pains or anything. Just to follow up with my ob within a week.
It's now been a few days and my swelling hasn't come down but has gotten worse. My hips and my lower back have now swelled insanely where I can barely walk. Can't sleep due to pain under my ribs. Im also pretty weak. Some people are telling me to go back to the ER but I don't want too. I was kicked out and made to seem like I'm 100 fine when I don't think I am. Maybe I am going crazy idk. I see my Ob on Monday so holding out till then to hopefully get some clarity. So yeah that's my small update. Thanks again everyone.

Today I woke up around noon, she was chugging beers at the kitchen table, and staring at the wall in silence. That’s a good sign of when I can tell that she’s fully dissociated from reality and the day is going to be hellish. I got some water, went back to my room, and started getting ready for the day.
Since I have been back in my room, she has punched my door, body slammed into it, kicked walls, thrown around furniture, and all while screaming pretty vicious threats against my safety and well being. It’s not always like this, sometimes it’s manageable, but I understand that’s how abusers get people to stay, by leaving breadcrumbs of “normalcy”.
I have nobody to stay with, I don’t have a car, and when she’s standing in front of my bedroom door body slamming it, all I can do is wait until 9pm until she’s sleeping. I have no way out of the house except my window. My mom effectively takes away my entire day from me. This has been going on honestly since my senior year of highschool, almost 7 years ago at this point.
I was a high honor, very responsible student, my entire life. Until senior year of highschool, because my mom began trapping me in my room. I lost any sense of normal, couldn’t do any homework and was sent to a detentionary school because of my sudden “missing attendance”. I was then given a GED and my life has been pretty messed up since then. (I was such a high honor student, that because of my test grades I wasn’t even given a full GED test, I just had to write a small essay, and got 100%)
It’s pretty much the same routine, she is drunk 75-90% of the entire week. She has small moments, or reasons why she won’t be belligerently drunk, and I cling to those moments of “calm”. But honestly I’m not doing well. I can’t do anything on a regular schedule. I couldn’t even keep up a part-time retail job, because I would come home to her blacked out drunk and threatening my life. That would lead to me not sleeping or eating out of fear. And the next day after, or sometimes week, would be even harder because of missing sleep.
I don’t think I will be able to move out anytime soon if I’m being realistic about my savings and credit score. But I really want a normal life. I’ve made a few online friends recently and they’re 3-5 years younger than me, and so much further ahead. Some have graduated college, they live on their own, they have full time federal jobs. I can’t even leave my bedroom when I want. I hope someone on here understands what I go through, I am new here to this subreddit.

My spouse and I work together in a kitchen. I was recently promoted to a traveling position, and i leave in 2 days. The money is a bit better, and the opportunities that come with it are amazing for me. I'll be able to do so much for my family, and no longer have to worry about a bad illness (spouse has a chronic illness) losing us our home and/or car. But it does mean that I'll be away from home for periods ranging from weeks to months, save weekends off. All the places i could be sent are within the same state. My spouse is so angry and upset they're in tears today. They keep asking me how I know they won't do something to themselves while I'm gone. I'm at a loss. This sort of situation is exactly one I judged and made fun of when I saw it on media, but here it is happening to me in real life. I won't be traveling forever, the opportunities that follow are stationary positions. On top of that they've made remarks that lead me to believe they're jealous I got promoted instead of them. They're known to be abrasive at work, taking so much pride in their station that absolutely anything out of place when they return from days off leads to yelling and slamming things. I love my spouse dearly, but this situation is really throwing me for a loop. They should be happy for me. For us. Instead all I'm getting is negativity and rage.

Hello, can I get an advice from you.
I dated my colleague girl after 4 months of knowing eachother at work. We went out 3 times, and keept talking. We enjoyed eachothers company but we didn't had the courage to speak plain about our feelings. I knew that she likes me alot and I did the same. After our 3rd date, she stoped talking to me for a week because she told me that this is going serious and she don't know how to handle it because we have the same job, and we could not leave at the same time for any vacation, and she also is a little scared of commitment. Those mixed feelings made me to step back and after a long talk we agreed that we should stop dating. I tought that is something there because I felt the atraction, she said constantly that she likes me so much, the cuddling and kisses felt so god damn right.
Now after we agreed that isn't right to date anymore, we went to the office(we work from home most of the time), and I felt so much anxiety going out in the break time with her for a smoke. She was there laughing and seeming to be in a good mood with me or the other coworkers, but for me it was terrible. I managed to fake it all day, beeing chill and all of that, but that made me so exausted. After work she send me some sad music and we exchanged some word, but I wanted to tell her to leave me alone because this is feeling like she give me fake hope.
Should I tell her that I felt this anxiety beeing around her, and we should stop talking for a while until I get past of those feelings?
Thank you and I hope you understand the story.

I'm moving into a house from years of apartment living (yay!) and excited to have gardening space. I figured I would check FB marketplace for used gardening supplies (planters, trellises, tomato cages, etc). before bothering to buy new. save a bit of money, support individuals rather than big business, keep used-but-still-useful gardening supplies out of landfill, etc.
I am not an aggressive haggler (outside of situations where it's expected - car dealerships, farmers' mkt near closing time) - If I see something way overpriced, I just move on, I don't message trying to argue the price down. NOR am I expecting to get a $200 italian terra cotta planter for free or $5 or whatever. but if your product is USED and I'm driving to pick it up, I expect it to be significantly cheaper than buying new - new items have return policies, I can pay with credit card and the protections that come with same, new items come with warranties, new items have all their useful life remaining, etc.
What I am seeing on FB marketplace is people selling used, bent tomato cages for MORE than they would cost new from tractor supply. I am seeing plastic crappy nursery pots (the ones that their plants came in) being offered for $1/pot, when a brand new THICKER plastic nursery planter is 58 cents bought from the fancy garden nursery. i am seeing visibly used trellis material, already dirty, in some cases damaged, selling for more than these products cost new delivered via amazon.
what is going on here? I was hoping to save a bit of money and do Mother Earth a kindness by buying used and keeping stuff out of a landfill...but i'm not about to pay more than new prices for your bent, rusty-ass tomato cage. who would?? where are these sellers getting the idea that a tomato cage that is 5 bucks brand new from home depot is suddenly worth 8-10 bucks once their dog has pissed on it, and some of its useful life has already been consumed?
am i out of touch? i'm not comparing pre-inflation prices, i'm looking at TODAY's prices for tomato cages new vs what FB marketplace clowns are offering... what is going on here?

• The video begins with a Chantal-issued warning saying:

"None of the characters in these poorly drawn skits are based on actual human beings (thank goodness) so don't take offence if you can relate to any of them. Thanks for watching"

• We then get an introduction to this new mini series regarding an office company called "beezer home health" She talks about her experience working in health offices for many years.
• She explains people called "lifers" who stay at companies for years and hate it. She says they tend to have a lot of crap on their desks. She just starts shitting on people who stay at jobs for a long time, I guess. She emphasizes not to take any "offence" and then issues a disclaimer, as to avoid lawsuit?
• Chantal says she isn't an artist and really sucks at drawing but we'll have to deal with the bad illustrations. By this point, the introduction has taken up

During the match, the referee is unconscious and Chavo Guerrero comes down to the ring in aid of his friend Mysterio. Chavo gets a steel chair and hits… Rey! With one of the hardest chair shots you’ll see and Booker T is utterly stunned. The referee regains consciousness and Booker T covers Rey Mysterio to win the World Heavyweight Championship!)
WWE Championship:
Rob Van Dam (c) vs Edge w/Lita vs John Cena
(Edge says he did what he did at Vengeance because not only does he hate John Cena and doesn’t want him touching the WWE Championship in the slightest but Rob Van Dam also holds the damn thing he wants. Cena says Edge has only delayed the inevitable which is him regaining his spot as the man and he now wants the chance to do it in his hometown meanwhile RVD tells them both that if they want his title, he welcomes the challenge. As a result, a Triple Threat Match is booked. Edge wins the championship by pinning Rob Van Dam after Lita hands him a pair of brass knuckles.)
Notes:
(Jeff Hardy returns to the WWE the night after SummerSlam although he doesn’t confront Edge.)
(Rob Van Dam and Sabu are suspended for violating the Wellness Policy.)
(Chavo Guerrero costs Rey Mysterio his rematch for the World Heavyweight Championship on the SmackDown after SummerSlam.)
And that’s part 42 over and done with guys! I hope you enjoyed what I brought to the table and of course love the fact I kept The Great Khali so far away from The Undertaker 😂 anyways, I’ll be back on Thursday to cover part 43 where we’ll see Trish Stratus retire, John Cena and Edge take their rival to a new level and at Survivor Series we’ll have Brand Warfare which ends up getting Extreme 👀 stay tuned!

I lived in this studio apartment complex for 5 years and had no issues with any of my neighbors. Recently a couple has moved in with their dog, leaving it running around unsupervised in the shared community area. I like dogs but this one runs into my house if the door is opened and they also don’t pick up after the dog! I’ve talked to them multiple times, and on my third time the guy got in my face, telling me to stop harnessing him like I’m the Karen here. I talked to some of my neighbors who have complained before, and we decided to contact the management company, to which we can’t get a reply from… Last night I walked past him when coming back home and he just gave me this angry mug as he walked by. Honestly what am I supposed to do here??

Hello. I am using a cloud GPU on Google Cloud in order to run a desired OpenAssistant model on text-generation-webui. I was able to successfully download the model as well as set up the NVIDIA drivers, however when it was time to run the server.py script to load up the model on the GUI, I keep on getting this error.

I'm using a NVIDIA L4 GPU, the model I'm using is OpenAssistant/oasst-sft-4-pythia-12b-epoch-3.5, and I just want to get this model up and running right now for inference, I'll make a decision if I want to train the model later. If someone can please help me out, I would highly appreciate it.

I live in Bergen County, and my kids regularly pester me to take them to Bear Mountain so they can go rock clambering and hurt themselves. Yesterday we all piled into the family truckster and set out on the 40-mile drive, only to find out when we got there that the exit off the PIP for the drive up to the top was closed and we'd have to go all the way around to enter from the east side of the park. Unsurprisingly, the traffic there was terrible, and after 30 minutes of inching forward we discovered that they had also closed the east side entrance. We ended up stopping at a diner for ice cream and then just driving home.
This is not the first time I've made the trek to Bear Mountain only to find that it's overfull or things are unexpectedly closed, so I'm thinking it's high time I found some places in NJ that I can take the kids to instead. Does anyone have suggestions in that regard, places where they can try to injure themselves on rocks and complain there are too many bugs and it's too hot, but then complain more when it's time to leave? I was thinking Delaware Water Gap, but that's a bit more of a schlep. Anything at a roughly equivalent distance from Rutherford would be great, like 45 miles.

We had an apartment fire last Thursday. It started two apartments down. 12 units are in the building. About 2 apartments were a total loss. 4-6 had smoke/fire damage. The rest were minimal or had no damage. We have no visible damage, but smoke blowing from our AC.
The morning of the fire, the property manager put everyone without a home into vacant units in the community or some found hotels through insurance. We stayed at my fiancés moms house. The restoration company put an air scrubber in our apartment, it has been running since Friday. Two days later, I asked the Maitenance manager we were given the “all clear” and if it were safe to live in our apartment. He said yes. We stayed in our apartment for two nights, and smelled smoke when our AC vents turned on every few minutes. I have complained to them multiple times now.
We feel unsafe to live there, have been waking up with headaches and sore throats. The fire inspector came today and they found no damage or faults to anything electrical.
Basically they’re saying we’re safe to live there, and have no damage. However we know it isn’t safe to be breathing in smoke 24/7. We are moving in about a month but have no solution in the meantime.
My fiancé filed an insurance claim earlier and we have to provide what is damaged, fire reports (we have not been given), and any other important info. We’re hoping to be approved on the claim so we can live in a hotel most of the time until we move to our new apartment.
We’ve been debating on breaking our lease, because it is not safe to live there, but we would have to pay basically two months rent and lose our deposit… OR firmly requesting them to cover our June rent while we (hopefully) live in a hotel.
Does anyone have ideas of what to do based off our ideas listed directly above?
We live in Michigan.

Curious what people think about planning a trip to SJ Islands sans car. Currently planning to ferry in from Anacortes as a walk-on/non car passenger and then do some inter-island traveling while there! For San Juan, Orcas, and Lopez- is it feasible to assume I can rent a bike somewhere on each island and use it to get around while there? Are there good recommendations? I bike for transit a ton in my city (Minneapolis), would prefer to rent a road bike or hybrid- but definitely NOT an e-bike, I hate them 😂
ALSO- realized that for the dates I’m in Orcas, I booked a site that’s essentially the opposite side of the island from the ferry stop. I’m curious if I should try to rebook, or if biking/some sort of shuttle/asking kind strangers would work to get around haha.
Thanks so much!!!

Should a second marriage be as important as a first?! My fiance and I will be getting married in October of this year (2023). We have both been married once before, to other people. Already our wedding has had so many sad and disappointing turns, and it hasn't even happened yet! My MOH was my brother's fiancé (mother to my beautiful niece), but she dropped out!!! She said she can still be in the wedding party as a regular bridesmaid, but it was too much stress to plan my bridal shower AND hers and my brother's wedding (which is also happening just a bit before mine). I was, understandably, sad about this but I also could see where she was coming from. I gracefully accepted, and then appointed my soon to be sister in law as my MOH. After assuring me she could handle this task SHE TOO dropped out as MOH! She said she would still do the roll, but couldn't plan anything that was the MOHs job. I was so angry and heartbroken that the women I thought were special enough to be in my wedding party couldn't come through for me! The other major issue is that my groom (bless his wonderful heart) has been dealing with family that doesn't care! We have a small budget and an even smaller circle of family and friends we'd want around us for such a sacred day. So imagine, you only invited a small amount of people and almost half of them won't be attending! No one in his family seems to think this wedding is a big deal! We assume they think, because it's his second wedding, they don't need to take it seriously! He's heartbroken at this! Our wedding is only a 50 minute drove from the town his entire family lives in! There's no reason they should miss this wedding! My family is spread out and most live about 2 hours away depending on traffic. They all still plan to be there! My fiancés PARENTS are the MAIN ONES treating this wedding like it's not important! We rent our home from them (as they have many properties they rent to people), and his dad continues to treat us like it's just a waste of perfectly good rent money in his eyes. To clear one thing up, he has no idea how much we are or are not spending, so therefore has no idea if we're wasting money! (Luckily my aunt and grandmother have graciously paid for many of the larger priced items for the wedding, saving us from going broke!) It's so easy to just say "F them, we'll be fine without them", but it doesn't make my fiances heart hurt less! We are completely, madly in love and everyone can tell! My family and our friends are all overjoyed to see us both finally happy with our true love! We just don't understand why (mostly his parents) don't care! His parents have seen him struggle time and time again in his previous relationship, and yet they show no support or happiness in seeing him Finally happy and loved the right way! What do we do? How do we move forward? How can I help him to hurt less?

I want to clarify first off that when I say “allowed”, that’s an insecurity coming from myself, not my husband. He’s not a controlling ah, and I don’t feel trapped in an abusive relationship.
I’ve been a sahm for our entire 12 year marriage, we had kids young and we agreed we were both more comfortable with them being home with a parent when they were babies. He had the degree and is a veteran so his opportunities offered a much larger paycheck than mine, so I stayed home. Now they are all grade school age, and I’m finally starting to feel like I can go back and finish my degree to re-enter the workforce.
My issue is, he barely helps at all around the house, and I am really struggling with two things: - am I being unreasonable for asking him to help more with the general everything that goes into housework? Laundry, toilet/shower scrubbing, food prep, vacuuming/mopping, etc.? He works around 60 hours a week, no weekends, no overnights. I don’t have a job. I do 95% of the housework, he’ll take out the trash sometimes and will clean dishes after dinner sometimes. He takes care of yard work when it needs it. His responses (when I bring up him doing more) are “I just don’t notice things like you do” and “if you want me to do something just ask” and “you have so much more time than I do to do these things”. It’s infuriating and I hate it. - I am worried that once I get my degree and start a job, this will all get exponentially worse. My kids are old enough to do easy chores like loading & unloading the dishwasher, sweeping, folding laundry, and I do have them help with those chores since they need to learn how anyway, but when I’ve brought up my concern that I will continue to be responsible as the default doer of housework while working, his response is “we will get a housekeeper”. I know that many people do that, and it sounds like a nice compromise, but life is expensive and only gets more expensive as our children (and the 100+ year old house we live in) get older, and it feels like an unnecessary expense when we are physically capable.
Additionally, he is always tired. I don’t know why and neither does he because he won’t go talk to a doctor about it, his solution is taking a nap every day after work, or laying on the couch and falling asleep right after dinner while I clean and do bedtime. He is a big gamer, and even though I’ve asked him to limit playing to when the kids are asleep or not home, he still does it.
I feel stuck. I second guess myself every day on whether me asking him to do more around the house is unfair since he works full time and I don’t. I just want SOME help.
Thanks all.
