    Hmmm I guess I should care more for other people's feelings, because saying I love you first is waaaaay more scary to me. Like @Augusta108, I said it first to DH but only because he made it comfortable for me to do so. He kept saying things like "I really LOVE being here with you" or "I LOVE that we found each other" and basically made a huge neon sign saying he loved me, ha. Otherwise, NOPE. Not saying it. It's so heartbreaking if/when it's not reciprocated. 

    So I guess @cdnrunning and @purplg8r are just nicer than me

    A friend of mine told me a month ago they were 'sort of' ttgp.  Last week she asked me about opks.  Now shes pregnant.  I literally just lost my shit thinking about this.  WTF.  I'm so pissed at the word and myself right now.

    Most likely telling the person to their face that I didn't love them back.   In a previous relationship I'm pretty sure I was the first one to say I love you so that doesn't really bother me.
  • @mispanda shit like that makes me crazy!!

    @50Wife Sorry to hear about work struggles. But I can see why you're sticking it out for maternity leave and flexible schedules.

    R/R: Rave: I made it to the gym this morning for the first time in a week. We've been so busy and staying up late, so when 4:30am rolls around, I've just been temping then passing back out. Also, I got into work early today, so I'm hoping to leave a bit early so I can spend time painting our bedroom. We move furniture into the house on Thursday, so I was hoping to have it all painted before then. 

    CS/Q: So I started spotting 2 days before AF started and had 5 days of AF and then continued to spot. So basically it has been over over a week of spotting and AF (9 days in total). Has anyone else experienced this? Is this something I should be concerned about? Last cycle was my first normal-ish cycle (despite being long) as my last 3 were either coming of BC, MC, and non-O. 

    GTKY: Before your current partner, would it have been more difficult for you to be the first one to say I love you, or to have to tell the person to their face that you didn't love them back?
    Definitely telling someone I didn't love them back. That would be very heart breaking for the other person. 

    Edit for comments. 
  • @starla yaaaassssss!!
    I'm just seeing your pants off dance off. You must have posted while I was typing mine. 
  • @Augusta108 Never heard of Terrace House, I'll have to look it up.

    @mispanda I'm sorry you had to deal with that. =(

    R/R: Worked from home yesterday, and was able to get everything done! Including some housework on the side! However, I was working from home so I could be there for the exterminator, but he was a no show... >.< We've been dealing with some sort of bug for over a month that my fiance is allergic to, the first time the exterminator just gave us a sticky trap, this was supposed to be his follow up visit...

    GTKY: Before your current partner, would it have been more difficult for you to be the first one to say I love you, or to have to tell the person to their face that you didn't love them back?  

    Both are hard. With my ex, it got to the point where saying "I love you" was difficult, and lord help me if I wanted to try and end things by saying I didn't love them. I think it really depends on the person you're dealing with.

    WAYDTGKU: PNV, OPK, Temping, charting, figuring out CM, HIO. I got a promising OPK this morning (will try again in afternoon), and my temp was way low yesterday (today it was higher, but not O high... i think i'm still new) so as @starla would say. Pants off dance off! 

    R/R: I'm so grateful for you smart ladies here! I started on another app that has a forum and they are literally idiots over there.... 

    CS/Q: How much do you see alcohol affecting your temping? 

    GTKY: Before your current partner, would it have been more difficult for you to be the first one to say I love you, or to have to tell the person to their face that you didn't love them back? To tell the person I didnt love them... I dont like confrontation at all...

    R/R: Excuse my rant... Omg my Iphone has caused me so many problems over the past 12+ hours. Yesterday around 4pm my phone stopped accepting my password. The same password I have had for 6+ months and use a bagillion times a day. So I had to completely wipe my phone and start over from the original factory settings. This alone took me 4+ hrs to figure out for various reasons. Then my Icloud wouldn't restore on my phone. So last night at like 10pm I had to go to the store to buy an alarm clock because I had no way of waking myself up for work today (husband is also out of town). FINALLY this morning when I got to work I was able to get my Icloud to download. So I'm back in business but what a serious pain in the butt!

    CS/Q: N/A

    GTKY: Before your current partner, would it have been more difficult for you to be the first one to say I love you, or to have to tell the person to their face that you didn't love them back?

    I've never had to tell someone I didn't love them back. Even if I didn't really love them I pretty much convinced myself I did or I would evetually. I was also generally someone to hold off on the L word though. I'm very complicated lol but I think telling someone I didn't love them would have been harder because I struggled with the idea of how thing "could" be or "may be" in the future. Glad I finally found someone where that wasn't even a question!

    Sorry to P & G but i'll be back later.

  • Hey ladies! Haven’t been on here in almost a week due to moving at work and then having a super busy weekend. My mobile app doesn’t let me sign in so I can’t post from my phone and I didn’t have much time to get to a computer. Hope everyone had a great couple days and I didn’t miss too much!

    WAYDTGKU: PNVs, Extra Folic Acid, Monitoring CM, OPKs


    R/R: Based on CM, I think O is right around the corner! I haven’t gotten a positive OPK yet but I have a feeling I will later today or tomorrow. I hope I’m right cause I O’d on CD 28 last month so this would mean that O is right back to where it used to be when I was “regularish”. So fingers crossed!


    CS/Q: Nope


    GTKY: Before your current partner, would it have been more difficult for you to be the first one to say I love you, or to have to tell the person to their face that you didn't love them back? I found it really difficult to say “I love you” even after the other person had said it to me. Even with DH, I knew  I loved him weeks before he said it and even after he did, it took me a couple days to say it back. Now I say it multiple times a day <3.


    @cdnrunning- Hope that temp spike was real!


    @mispanda- I am so so sorry to see you back here. And for your SS friend. So many hugs to you.


    @dilynne- Good luck with your HSG!


    JJMNO1616- I understand the iphone struggles. Mine freezes all the time or will just randomly turn off. I hate it! Seriously considering switching to android. Hope yours stops giving you trouble now that it’s been reset.

  • @cdnrunning FX it is O!

    @Augusta108 what kind of reality show is it?

    @mispanda ugh. I'm sorry about your friend. It's so frustrating  how some people seem to get pregnant so easily while some of us struggle. 

    @darkrose88 good luck painting!!

    @Dilynne I hope your HSG went well!!

    @JJMNO1616 so annoying about your phone!  I'm addicted to mine so that would freak me out. 

  • You guys are making me feel kind of hard hearted with all the "harder not to say it back" answers to the GTKY question! Also making me think a lot today about the one time someone did tell me he loved me and I didn't feel the same way and knew I wouldn't be feeling the same way any time soon...when I pretended not to hear him and then he pretended not to have said it. Not my proudest moment.

    @EmilyLove25 and @purplg8r, Terrace House is like a much gentler "Real World". There are six housemates, all strangers to each other, and the show is about their developing friendships/romances as well as following along in their daily lives as they pursue various personal and professional goals. People are allowed to leave whenever they feel they've gotten all they can out of the experience, so the cast rotates quite a bit. There's also a really funny panel of Japanese comedians/actors who come on every so often to talk about what's happening on the show. It takes a while to get into the show because it all feels so low key (seriously, at one point early on you're watching them do laundry), but eventually it's very addictive. I would recommend starting with the "Boys and Girls in the City" season rather than the current "Aloha State" one if you decide you want to give it a try!

    I don't know if I'm allowed to link to things, but if I can there's a good article about the show here.
    (If the link doesn't work, you can find it pretty easily by Googling polygon terrace house)

    @50Wife, ugh, that sounds like an awful work situation. I hope something changes for the better soon!

    @mispanda, sorry about your friend's news. That would be obnoxious at the best of times.

    @Dilynne, good luck with the HSG!

    @abcola, I always get a temp spike the morning after drinking. Also, I don't think I've seen you in the daily threads before, so hi!

    @RVAmom315, good luck in the TWW! 

    @camomile-2, exactly, having all this sexy time sounds so great in theory and is so tiring in practice!

    @JJMNO1616, oh no, that sounds like a real nightmare with your phone! We don't realize how much we depend on them until they let us down!

    @KatieEl, I've had a few cycles where my temps stayed high the first couple of days of my period. I was not a fan since it meant I didn't get any temp drop warning AF was on her way.

  • Totally late today...

    @Augusta108 I feel you on needing to conserve energy!

    @50Wife I'm sorry your job sucks right now. My job is the same--sooo many people have left in the last few months that you think HR would notice a pattern here. I hope things improve for you soon!

    @mispanda I'm so sorry about your friend. News like that always hits hard and I'm sure it's even harder when you're going through a loss. Many hugs.

    @darkrose88 hope you get all your painting done! Moving is so stressful but so exciting!

    @Dilynne good luck with your HSG today!!

    @camomile-2 I hope you feel better and get some rest soon!

    @JJMNO1616 I'm sorry for all the phone frustration! Glad it was able to work out, I would've been going crazy too!

    R/R: had what I thought was a positive OPK on Sunday but today I got a blaring positive so O day was definitely not yesterday like I thought. The good news is that I tend to O two days after my first positive OPK so I'm thinking O might be Thursday which would be GREAT because DH gets home tomorrow night from his trip. Fx that we can still get good timing in this month!

    CS/Q: nope

    GTKY: Before your current partner, would it have been more difficult for you to be the first one to say I love you, or to have to tell the person to their face that you didn't love them back? Harder to tell them I don't love them. I dated a guy for like three days and he told me he loved me and I was like "okay...see you later!" I ended things with him a day or two later and it was so hard for me to do it but at the same time he was moving way too fast too soon (telling me he loved me and that he wanted to transfer to my college so we could be together after only dating a few days WTF). Anyway, I started dating DH a few months later so it was obviously the right move  :)
