Search Results: our baby

So, I'm talking with a woman who I seem to be on the same page with about so many things. Our personalities, what brings us peace, what we're looking for, whether to have kids, etc.; we agree on lots of important things. I enjoy talking with her a great deal. She is my dream girl in so many ways. We agree on so much that I'm actually somewhat concerned that she might just be telling me what she thinks I want to hear.

One thing we don't agree about though, is pets. She's told me that she wants a lot of fur babies. She wants 2 purebred dogs, an exotic cat, and 2 exotic birds. She's listed particular species, but I don't want to include those to keep things somewhat private if she were to read this.

She doesn't have much experience with pet ownership, so I'm concerned that she'll buy these animals (which cost a fair bit of money) and then either lose interest in them or the responsibility of taking care of them will be passed on to me.

I don't want to be hyperbolic, but I feel like her wanting a lot of pets might be a bit of a redflag to me. Am I being stupid or is this a legitimate concern?

Texas doesn't think so:

"I was driving to pick up my son. I knew I couldn't be a minute late, so I took the HOV lane," Bettone told Lieber. "As I exited the HOV, there was a checkpoint at the end of the exit. I slammed on my brakes and I was pulled over by police."

Bettone said officers asked her if there were any more occupants inside her vehicle. Pregnant with a daughter, Bettone told the officers her unborn child was inside the vehicle with her, according to Lieber.

"I pointed to my stomach and said, 'My baby girl is right here. She is a person,'" Bettone said. However the officers were not buying it. "He said, 'Oh, no. It's got to be two people outside of the body.'"

Bettone spoke with multiple officers over the course of her encounter, she told Lieber. One seemed indifferent, Bettone claimed, while another gave her a citation and told her to challenge it in court to have it thrown out.

"One kind of brushed me off when I mentioned this is a living child, according to everything that's going on with the overturning of Roe v. Wade. 'So I don't know why you're not seeing that,' I said," Bettone explained. "He was like, 'I don't want to deal with this... Ma'am, it means two persons outside of the body."

"Bettone ended up receiving a $215 citation and instructions from the issuing officer suggesting that if she fought it, it would most likely get dropped."

For anyone who doesn't know the carpool or 'hov lane' on our highways is only allowed to be used by drivers with two or more passengers. you get cited if you get caught using it by yourself.
