Good luck, we were in the same boat 1.5y ago. The waiting list are bs... they don’t necessarily clear them in the sign up order. I went in person to one where i was on the wait list and someone happened to move and leave the day care 1 month out and they offered me her spot... i was glad to get it but surprised she did not even check where i was on the wait list

My SO adds very little to our relationship. She has a dead end job. I cook. I work. I oversee finances. I plan trips. She doesn’t have a voice in the relationship. I’ve asked her to give her perspective but she always defaults to mine bc she thinks I’m smarter/worldly. She feels intimated by me and my social circle. Lately, I’ve found myself thinking for her. Anticipating her wants and needs and then adjusting my behavior to meet them. Which she appreciates but it’s frustrating 29M 27F
