    “the way he replaces the lid on the toothpaste?”

    Hey I respect the way my husband puts the lid on the toothpaste…he always makes sure to clean the cap : )

    and the same goes for the ketchup

    Wolfish Musings-

    Because he’s a jerk, thats why.

    in reply to: lyrics to…. #750401

    Why does everybody make so much fun of me

    dont they know that it hurts me so

    cant they see my heart is breaking from the inside

    where oh where can i hide

    oh how i wish someone would be my friend

    and accept me for the way i am

    and together we could play and share

    if only somebody would care

    …or is this the one from the marvelous middos machine? I have foggy memories of these things….

    I once opened a new username to post something personal. Didnt have any problems. I only used that screename once. Dont even remember the password anymore.

    guy-ocho-

    My husband is in yeshiva. He has no idea how much money we have. I take care of all the banking…

    “whatrutalkingabout, that may be your preference, but why? If a woman is fully covered, what is wrong with her nursing her child? Is it just general discomfort on your part?”

    Yeah I guess it is a general discomfort on my part. I feel that Jewish women should have a little more busha than their goyish counterparts. Even if nothing is exposed, I think its embarrassing to know that the lady next to you on the plane is nursing.

    in reply to: Birthday present for Husband #751530

    BPT-

    “Give him a day off” lol. From what? Yeshiva???

    in reply to: Birthday present for Husband #751529

    Truth be told-

    Dont even bother with him. For some reason its ok for him to make up that I have Shalom Bayis problems…but its not ok for you to call him disgusting…you see what you’re dealing with here.

    I do thank you for sticking up for me though : )

    “Where is the woman in the pizza shop supposed to nurse? And why can you eat in the pizza shop but the baby can’t?”

    Not directly in front of the open pizza shop door. Either go to the bathroom in back, or if you cant for whatever reason, at least find a table in the back corner and nurse facing the back wall.

    Yogibooboo-

    “i just bought my husband a beautiful megillah with commentaries in it and had his name imprinted on it. i also want to get him the hagaddah thats also part of the same edition.”

    What edition is this? Who’s commentaries is it? Is the hagaddah leather bound?

    in reply to: Birthday present for Husband #751512

    dunno-

    I dont think so because mosherose’s spelling was awful. Either way, I’m not bothering with this guy anymore. I see its going nowhere.

    in reply to: Birthday present for Husband #751503

    Hello99- Id like it to be a surprise. Besides I know what he’ll say if I ask. He’ll tell me he wants a big strong powered shower head… : )

    Observanteen- I dont mind spending a lot but not on something that you only use once a year…

    in reply to: Birthday present for Husband #751502

    “You should show your appreciation by being devoted to him, not by giving nonsensical presents. It flies in the face of everything we stand for”

    I’m allowed to show my appreciation in whatever ways I want. This is my marriage not yours.

    Anyways, a devoted wife remembers her husbands birthday and takes advantage of the opportunity to show him how special he is.

    And thats very nice that you call a Shulchan Aruch nonsensical. Shows what type of person you are.

    One more thing, forgive me for being ignorant but what exactly do we stand for that presents dont fit in?

    in reply to: Birthday present for Husband #751487

    Thanks for all the ideas…Keep em coming!

    So far there isnt anything that I think is a perfect present for him….Its so hard to buy presents for men!

    I would get him a real shtender, except we live in E”Y for now and when we move back we won’t be able to take it…

    Last year I bought him a nice set of Shulchan Aruch and I want to do something different

    We dont go to concerts

    He isnt into labels (wouldnt even know what it is if I bought him anything designer)

    yogibooboo-

    Who says you’re patur just because you are making a surprise party? ; )

    Hagaddah is not a bad idea though

    in reply to: Birthday present for Husband #751486

    tro11

    I buy my husband a birthday present to show my appreciation for him. Besides, no one asked you

    in reply to: Birthday present for Husband #751475

    He’s 25

    Loves music (He already has an ipod)

    Other than that- he learns all day (I could always buy him sforim but I did that for his birthday last year…)

    in reply to: sitting next to opposite gender on plane #749762

    I can understand why women would need to nurse on a plane…but as far as any other public place- I think its disgusting. I’ve seen a woman in an open pizza shop sitting at the table with friends nursing her baby. I saw one walking down 13th avenue while nursing…

    Nurse on the plane all you want- but dont let it get out of hand. And if there is a frum man next to you, you should definitely warn him before takeoff so that he isnt stuck when he figures it out.

    in reply to: How Do I Repay? #748397

    Wow- I’m astounded by your honesty and by your determination to do the right thing.

    As for your dilemma- Why dont you ask your “employer” what you should do? Tell him you needed a break and does he want you to do anything to make it up? If he’s mochel it, then you are left with a clear conscience and if not, maybe he can outline how you can repay it.

    in reply to: yeshiva vs. kollel #748358

    Most bochurim in yeshiva dont pay to learn, do they?

    (I’m not talking about elementary and high school)

    in reply to: kosher cell phones #748391

    In Israel the cheapest plans ae the kosher phones. Everyone uses them. Problem is they only come with four ringers and when you’re on a bus and someones phone rings, Everyone starts checking their pockets/bags… : )

    in reply to: Jealousy #748217

    I think its much harder when youre not jealous of peoples money or posessions but you’re jealous that they seem to ride through life very easily.

    For example- a girl in shidduchim can easily be jealous of someone who got engaged fast and had an easy time during the dating and engagement

    A couple waiting for kids can be jealous of someone who gave birth 9 months after the chasunah

    Someone who’s kids are struggling in school may be jealous of those who have genius kids….and so on

    The thought that helps me is that obviously Hashem gave you this nisayon in order that you should come closer to Him. He wants to hear from you…and apparently- for whatever reason- He doesnt need to be extra close to whoever has smooth sailing in life…get what I mean? Now doesnt that make you feel better???

    Maybe the other person should be jealous of YOU and your connection with Hashem!

    in reply to: shalach manos for chassan #748356

    “a guy wants something that shows that his Kallah is thinking about him and knows what he likes”

    So for his birthday dinner she will make him a 16 oz steak but for shalach manos??? He wants to show off that he has the most creative kallah

    in reply to: Mazal Tov. #748187

    Mazel Tov!

    in reply to: breakfast #748759

    BPT-

    I’ve been doing this all my life and there hasn’t really been much damage. I know I know- eventually it’ll all catch up…

    Also- I havent been hiding much of anything this winter- Here in EY its spring all year long!

    in reply to: shalach manos for chassan #748353

    I agree with stickynote- A guy wants something cute from his kallah. He doesnt want to think of her as “one of his pals”. He wants her to be feminine

    Send him a corned beef on rye on a regular night…

    in reply to: paysach!!! #748110

    I think the kids chap that its different once they take a bite…It all tastes like potatoes, just with different consistancies.

    in reply to: breakfast #748753

    BPT-

    “Wow.. I’m not the only one who eats well, am I?”

    No…But I seem to be the only one who doesnt eat well.

    Anyone else ever sit down to a breakfast of cookies, cakes or danishes?

    in reply to: Why? #755435

    Mod 80- lol

    Cooljude- Its really not too hard to figure out why threads get closed but I’ll help you out a bit…since you’re new : )

    It could be just to stop the bickering between children; ahem i meant posters.

    Or it could be because there is already a thread with the same subject

    Or it could be that something inappropriate was brewing

    And I’m sure there can be other reasons…but you’ll have to cheper the mods for that info

    in reply to: Binah, Mishpacha, Hamodia, Yaated, Jewish Press? #746765

    I only get Binah. And i buy it in the makolet every Wednesday

    Ask popa

    in reply to: Flowers for Shabbos #746549

    Here in EY you can get a nice bouquet for 10 shekel. Or a single rose for 2 shekel. So yes my husband buys flowers every Shabbos.

    in reply to: Loud and obnoxious neighbors #754482

    I love Mod 80s posts.

    in reply to: Picture Requirement #746684

    Sacrilege-

    I was just about to say the same thing. Popa seems to be obsessed with telling the world that girls are not allowed to be fat

    I dont think they’d really “rather stay single”. I think they keep hoping that the one they envisioned is just around the corner.

    in reply to: To talk or not to talk?? #758176

    Plug your ears up with earphones and listen to music or a shuir. This way you can say anything that you must say to them but they know you cant hear them so they wont bother.

    Shticky guy-

    “But what will you do if someone actually calls you while you’re supposedly already on a call and your phone rings”

    Why cant she really be talking to someone?

    in reply to: will you marry me? #919729

    Yatzmich-

    I agree with you 100%. Thats a question that I always thought needs to be said outright.

    onegoal-

    If he gave her ring when he proposed isnt that sort of marrying her?

    in reply to: best thing about the winter! #745816

    s2021-

    maybe its because they dont rip the first time you put them on?

    in reply to: Women & Girls Out There: I Really, Really Need Your Help!!!! #747794

    red head- We must’ve gone to the same seminary because I know the man that you are talking about. I was also very affected by what he said and so was the rest of my class.

    Girls in high school are usually sheilded and the rebbetzins just say how beautiful tzniyus is and to be quite frank- at that age and with that argument- no one thinks its beautiful

    But to hear a Rav get up in front of a class of girls and tell them what they do wrong and how it affects men…it scared alot of girls and they really wanted to do whats right

    in reply to: Picture Requirement #746656

    I got married a year and a half ago and no one ever asked me for a picture. I never even heard of this. Is this a very new thing that pictures of the girl are “required”?

    And I dont understand why any guy should decide that a girl is ugly before he meets her. She probably looks very different in a mugshot then in person. (and besides if he likes her personality, he wont care if shes drop dead gorgeous or not)

    in reply to: Women & Girls Out There: I Really, Really Need Your Help!!!! #747783

    I’ll tell you what helps me-

    If I have a skirt thats too short, its too hard to just throw it away. So I put it in back of my closet and tell myself that I’m just not wearing it for now. Thats much easier to do. Eventually, either it will go out of style, or I’ll outgrow it, or just forget about it

    in reply to: Depressed-I need help! #749259

    Stamford Hilly Billy-

    Do you have a Rebbi who you can talk to?

    in reply to: What do you do to get out of a bad mood? #745858

    I like shreks idea the best

    in reply to: best thing about the winter! #745806

    lol- I agree with Oomis- The best part is when the sun finally comes out

    in reply to: teenagers world #836178

    yossi-

    are you trying to stop the shidduch crisis by getting married at 19? or are you a girl?

    : )

    in reply to: non-jewish music #780042

    Zahavasdad-

    I got married a year and a half ago and I did not come out of the yichud room to either of those songs. So you are wrong.

    in reply to: who uses CR? #820874

    neek-

    The whole fun of the CR is figuring it out.
