Thought renovating our bathroom would be easy. Now we’re struggling to pick a vanity
We started renovating our bathroom thinking that it would be an easy project, especially that bathroom is like the smallest room here. You know, freshen things up a little, swap a few fixtures, maybe repaint in some areas, and move on I honestly thought the hardest part would be finally dealing with the ridiculous collection of skincare jars, half-used products, and some tubes sitting under the sink that never really worked for me but somehow I don’t wanna throw them away Then we reached the vanity-shopping stage... I had no idea there were so many options. Floating vanities, double sinks, wood finishes, stone tops, matte black hardware, built-in lighting… I’ve learned all these words at the store and suddenly every choice felt like it would define the entire look of the bathroom forever We seriously started studying bathroom trends with all these possible layouts, storage ideas, and trying to decide what actually will work for our space, instead of just what looks good online The funny part is we bought this house years ago and barely changed anything, so I guess we’re making up for lost time What started as a simple refresh somehow turned into us debating vanity depth and drawer organization at 10 PM like it’s a life sentence decision Anyone else start a bathroom renovation thinking it’d be easy and then realize you opened Pandora’s box? submitted by /u/kcng1991 to r/Remodel [link] [comments]

Double vanity upgrade
I’m upgrading the kids bathroom to a double vanity this week. If this looks overdone, it’s because I want it to be as hard to clog and easy to clean out. Everything is 2 inch expect for the trap connections. If you see something crazy, please let me know. submitted by /u/hpfcorvette to r/Plumbing [link] [comments]

I just found out my girlfriend is cheating on me with my brother.
trigger warnings: infidelity, child abandonment   *I just found out my girlfriend is cheating on me with my brother. * - July 19, 2025 throwaway since my friends know my reddit. but i don’t really know who else to turn to. i (26m) just found out my girlfriend (25f) has been cheating on me with my brother (29m). i’ve been with her for about 6 years and we have a 4 year old son together. im now questioning paternity. excuse me as im on mobile crying and drinking a fireball in my bathroom it all came out at our son’s 4th birthday party a few days ago. it was at my mom’s house and everything seemed normal, i was playing with my son and wanted to take a few photos so i went inside to grab my phone and i heard my girlfriend giggling down the hall behind a closed door. i realized i haven’t seen her in maybe 20-30 minutes so i was wondering if she was with someone or just on the phone. i went back to the party to grab a slice of cake to surprise her. when i was near the door i kept hearing that playful “stoppp” girls usually do when they are “flirting” and i was really confused, but i still opened the door, and i see she’s cuddled up on top of my brother. he was in his boxers and her makeup looked smudged and her shirt was on the floor. i couldn’t even say anything . i just stood there like an idiot. they both immediately noticed me and my girlfriend jumped and immediately started explaining herself, but i was so angry i can’t even remember what she was saying. i told my uncle i have a work emergency and i had to leave. my mom started calling me freaking out because she knows this is my week off and i rarely ever have to deal with work after hours. i didn’t tell her what happened yet. i haven’t told anyone because honestly my wife is my only friend. she never liked when i hung out with my boys or my childhood friends because i was “taking too much attention off her and our son”. the part that’s now messing with me the most is our son. I know this might be a huge reach and i might just be angry, but ever since my son was born, there has been a running joke among my family that my son looks like my brother. I kind of saw it, but always dismissed it because i trusted my wife and i knew she wouldn’t do anything like that to me. My brother has always been the one to start the joke and my girlfriend would always laugh. A lot of things that they used to do is now becoming more clear, like the fact that once or twice a week they often go out together and my wife would always come back super happy and giggly, she would tell me how her day was, but when i would try to initiate intimacy later in the day she would always say she’s too exhausted (she has an insane s*x drive) i am spiraling and i have no one in my life to turn to. my phone has been absolutely blowing up with messages from both my girlfriend, her trash friends and my brother but i can’t even bring myself to read them. i am spiraling and i don’t know what to do anymore. i feel like the life i have dreamt of as a kid is completely ruined and i feel too old to restart. my life is over update 1: it’s 12:28 and ive read all comments and working on responding. thank you so much for the support, and the two awesome guys who dmd me about their experiences. before the update i want to answer a few questions. “wife or girlfriend??” she’s was my girlfriend. when she gave birth to our son, i gave her a temporary ring and promised her i would marry her when i settle my college debt. i haven’t called her my girlfriend in years, i introduced her as my future wife. im sorry for adding that in the post and causing confusion. i was so broken typing it and kept thinking how she was supposed to be my wife in less than a year. “why didn’t you confront them and tell everyone?” my body completely froze and i shut down. it’s easier said than done. “isn’t it weird they’d joke about it? wouldn’t they wanna keep it a secret?” i don’t know how to answer this. when my family or my brother would joke about it i’d always get uncomfortable and shut it off. “she didn’t let you have friends?” it’s a little more complicated than that. she would often (now im aware it’s gaslighting but im still in denial) that i seem like i prioritize my friends over her & our son due to that fact after work i would quickly come home, shower, play with our son a little before bed time and run back out to a bar or event with my friends. i don’t think ive actually hung out with any of my friends in a few months. all i do is talk to online friends occasionally. my friends all drifted away a little bit when i kept using the “the wife (girlfriend) doesn’t want me outside” excuse. “she was gone for so long and no one noticed? and how were they so comfortable to be almost completely naked?” when my girlfriend left during my son opening gifts, she said she was having bad cramps so she was going to lay down for a bit. i don’t have an excuse for my brother because i don’t know. and as for the naked part, i wish i knew. for the actual update, I have replied to my girlfriend. I told her we can talk in the morning & she immediately started spam calling me, but i ignored all of them and kept it short with her. As for my brother, I simply just told him if he died nothing in my life would change. My brother and I have never been particularly close but he was still considered my bestfriend. He helped us out when my girlfriend was going through PP and gave me the bro talk when she was diagnosed with many mental disorders. i feel absolutely disgusted that i let him get that close to us. And i feel even more stupid for not noticing the most blatantly obvious red flags. I am unable to afford a lawyer. most of my savings would be wiped. I have never had to deal with legal stuff so all I’ve been doing is searching cheap lawyers on google. apart of me still wants her to be my official wife, and i have been looking at pictures of our son and trying to convince myself that he looks like me, but it’s getting so much harder. I am so broken, and I have nothing else. If he’s not my son, I don’t know what I’ll do with myself. I plan on telling my mother & father first before she gets the chance the spin the story, and hopefully I can come back in a few days or weeks with an update as I read paternity test take a long time. Thank you to everyone. update 2: I don’t think anyone will see this, so I made a new post, but long story short, She’s not sure my son is mine and I’m done. Relevant Comments: Deleted: Yeah, the red flag in there was she didn't let you have friends. And she has been using that weakness she created against you. Even her own kid, against you. Double child support, extra for her vanity? Could be. OP: I never really viewed it as a “red flag” because i was spending a lot of time with my friends for a while. i have a lot of online friends from gaming but even then, they are just online, i can’t actually have “fun” with them if that makes sense. gleaming-the-cubicle: Get a lawyer, get a paternity test OP: i don’t know how i could possibly get a lawyer, im an average guy making an average wage, i think id blow my entire savings + more affording lawyers and court fees based on what i see Tess27795: You need a lawyer and a paternity test. You will also need therapy. You need to take care of yourself. I know it seems impossible now, but you will survive this for a better day. Just keep moving. You can explain it to HR or a manager at work. You may need some time off. Please be kind to yourself. No one deserves this type of betrayal. The therapy will help you trust yourself again one day. OP: Thank you a lot. My boss knows a tiny bit of what’s going on and has given me a week off. As for therapy, I can’t afford it. I’ve honestly been drowning in debt, I’ve been dealing with still paying off hospital bills, my wife’s emergency c section, the new car she convinced me to finance and a lot of other things. Therapy would just add onto that. But im going to try and see if my friends are still willing to talk to me even though i have been icing them out for a few months. I appreciate the advice.   *I have been raising my brothers son for 4 years. * - July 20, 2025 (1 day later) I made a post yesterday talking about how I caught my ex cheating on me with my brother. I now found out that she doesn’t know if our son is mine or his and I am fucking spiraling. I can’t believe this is genuinely my life right now. Everything I’ve ever had fell apart in 2 hours. after i made the first post, i decided to call a meeting with my family and my ex, i told them i wanted to talk about something serious and had them all come over to my place. my mom, dad, brother, and ex all showed up. my son was with my cousin for the day. i sat everyone down and just told them straight up what i saw at the party. my brother immediately jumped in saying it was a misunderstanding, she was feeling “ugly and lonely”, it was nothing, etc. he was talking so fast it was obvious he was lying. My mother then started crying and my father didn’t say anything. i just sat there and waited for my ex to say something. I rehearsed so many ways of how this conversation could probably go and listened to a lot of advice in my other post but all I got out was “Is [sons name] mine?” All she could fucking say was “I don’t know” and started crying. my heart dropped. i asked how long it’s been going on and she said it started around the time we were trying for a baby. so basically since the beginning. I have basically been raising my nephew for 4 years. I can’t get into much detail at this point, because I barely remember what happened. All I remember is both me and my brother on the floor and we are both bloody. I started screaming for all of them to get out as my ex started crying saying she’s sure our son is ours. But i have 0 reason to believe it’s mine and I’m done. I have spent my entire life dreaming on building a huge family. we were supposed to be trying for another baby in a few months and my entire life is just falling apart in such a short amount of time. I don’t even know what advice i could possibly get at this point. I’ve already made an appointment for a paternity test against her wishes, but I can’t even think right now. My life is done and over with. Relevant Comments: CocoaAlmondsRock: Step 1: Get a paternity test. Step 2: Don't wait -- call a lawyer on Monday and start the divorce process. Step 3: Mute your STBX and trashy brother. (Don't block them -- you may need their messages.) Block any family member who says you should "forgive" or "be the bigger person." Step 4: Get your ducks in a row. Spend not another night in the same place where she is. Separate your finances. If you have a house, whose name is on the deed? What about vehicles? Figure out where you will live. Listen to your lawyer!! Step 5: Figure out what you're going to do if you are NOT the biological father. Hate to tell you, but you're legally responsible for financial support. Since you know who the father is if it's not you, talk to your lawyer about whether you can sue your brother to oblivion. hiroism4ever: FIRST your life isn't done and over with, as hard as it is to see in this moment. You aren't too old, either, you're still very young - the beginning of adulthood still. With that said, reach out to local lawyers like others suggested. No contact but don't block family and her. Get test to verify if it's your child or not. You dont know anything for sure about the child - if it is yours, hes yours still and you will regret not being there if you try cutting him out too. No drugs, no drinks, don't let the courts use anything against you in your upcoming case and divorce. And again I cannot reiterate enough, your life is not over. You slammed into the rock bottom hard, but life isn't over. You will rebound, and your future self and future family (and potentially your current child) will be thankful you didn't give up. Many have rebounded much later in life than you, you can recover and have a future too.   Deleted update on August 21, 2025 I didn’t think i’d ever come back to do an update, but i feel like i owe it to everyone. this is just a continuation of events, everything is on my page it’s been a month & a half since i found out the truth and i honestly didn’t think things could get any worse but they did. the dna test came back and my son isn’t mine. i felt like my whole chest collapsed when i read it. i sat in my car holding that paper until the sun went down and i couldn’t even drive home. i’ve been raising my brother’s kid this whole time, i felt a mixture of relief because apart of me accepted it might be his but my heart is absolutely shattered. the fallout was a mess. there was yelling, crying, everyone talking at the same time. my ex was on her knees begging me not to leave her, saying she’d do anything. my brother was red in the face screaming that the kid was his and i ruined his life. my mom was crying and telling me i was tearing the family apart. i just stood there shaking, my hands in my hair, trying to breathe while they all closed in on me. i’ve never felt so small in my own life. it was like the whole world turned on me in one night. i told my ex that we are over and i didn’t care what she did with the kid, i feel guilty about this because i feel already so emotionally detached from him. after that, everything just got worse. my brother showed up drunk at my buddy’s house a few days later pounding on the door and screaming that i “stole his family.” he was yelling that the kid was his and he deserved to be with his “real dad.” i told him to leave and he tried to fight me right there in the yard until the cops came and dragged him off. i’ve never seen someone so pathetic in my life. my ex hasn’t stopped trying to get me back. she’s been showing up crying, saying she can’t live without me, begging me to forgive her. last week she called me at 2am saying she was going to kill herself if i didn’t come over. i didn’t go. i can’t anymore. i don’t even know if it was real or just another way to guilt trip me. i got a few messages from her friends saying im a piece of shit for abandoning a child and leaving my ex to suffer alone. i don’t even understand why im the one receiving all the backlash, my father is the only one who refuses to speak on the situation the part that hurts most is my mom. she told me if i don’t take my ex back and “fix the family” she doesn’t want anything to do with me. my own mother chose my cheating ex and my brother over me. she said i was “abandoning” my son. i had to remind her he isn’t mine, and she hung up on me. i haven’t heard from her since. i feel like i lost everyone. my brother. my mom. my ex. my son. i’ve been drinking too much just to fall asleep and every morning i wake up feeling worse. i don’t even recognize my life anymore.   *I raised my nephew for 4 years [9 months later] * - March 16, 2026 (9 months later) Hey guys, It’s been about 240 days since my last post and a lot of people asked for an update back then. I’m not sure if anyone will see this or care, but i’m sharing for anyone who’s interested. The paternity test eventually came back and confirmed what I was already bracing myself for. he wasnt my son. That was probably the hardest sentence I’ve ever read in my life. For a long time I didn’t even know what to do with that information. I had spent four years raising him, building my entire identity around being his dad, and then suddenly that reality just… stopped existing. I wish i could be cool and say i crashed out and tore everyone’s life apart, but sadly, this is real life. i didn’t do anything. I couldn’t do anything but cry. I have been getting extreme hate for this decision, despite raising him for 4 years, but i am not interested in staying in his life and have not seen him in 7 months. It’s been hard, it’s disgusting and selfish of me to abandon and a little child like that, but everytime i looked at him, all i saw was my brothers face, it got to the point were i was having disgusting thoughts of hurting the kid so i eventually had to get myself voluntarily admitted for 72 hours due to how scary those thoughts were, which led me to not seeing him again. My brother disappeared and refused to step up. He won’t claim the kid, won’t help, nothing. Last I heard he basically denies responsibility whenever it comes up. That alone told me a lot about the kind of person he is, and I don’t have a brother anymore as far as I’m concerned. There has been absolutely 0 communication between us. My parents chose to keep trying to “fix the family” and push forgiveness instead of holding anyone accountable. They kept inviting me to dinners with him, telling me “blood is blood,” and saying I should move on for the sake of peace. Eventually I realized they cared more about pretending things were normal than what actually happened to me. I cut them off completely. Haven’t spoken to them in months and honestly my life has been quieter because of it. Not to demonize religion, but both of my parents are hardcore christian’s and often try to upkeep looks for their church. They have told them a watered down version of events, but I truly cannot care enough to get the real story out to them. As for my ex, she’s basically couch surfing now. Friends places, relatives, wherever she can stay temporarily. I don’t really keep tabs on her but that’s what I hear through mutual people. I don’t hate her the way I did in the beginning anymore, mostly I just feel nothing. After the paternity test, I completely ghosted her. She came with her parents to pack all of her stuff together while i (admittedly an asshole move) was on the couch watching to catch a cheated (jubal stories are bs but funny lol) on full volume. Didn’t look or talk to her once. I have last heard she is constantly jumping relationships, in and out of hospitals and keeps fighting for my brother to come back. What kind of hurts about that is, after the paternity test, everyone seemed more gravitated towards my brother stepping up instead of seeing if i was okay. My ex only bombarded me with hateful messages before I blocked her, no apologizes, lack of sympathy, just nothing. I do not know where she is now. My life now is… simple. I wish i could say my life bloomed, i found love, found a great job.. but sadly… I’m still at the same boring job I had when I wrote the original post. The only difference is I got promoted to a position that’s, I guess, “okay.” Nothing glamorous, but it pays a bit more and keeps me busy. Routine ended up being one of the only things that helped me stabilize. Mentally I’m still repairing myself. The first few months were brutal. Therapy helped a lot. So did time, even though everyone hates hearing that. I still think about the kid sometimes and that part will probably always hurt, but the constant spiral I was in back then isn’t my daily reality anymore. this will likely be the last ever update, but thank you reddit for being there for me. Relevant Comments: PuzzleheadedTap4484: I feel for you OP but I really feel bad for that kid. He’s an innocent party in all this. A crappy mom whose couch surfacing with a child, a biological dad who never stepped up, a dad he knew all his life that ghosted him due to paternity (but I get it and do understand why), and his life imploded. Hopefully the grandparents have given him a stable life. I’m glad you’re in therapy and I hope it helps you move on from this terrible chapter in your life. Hopefully with time you are able to start living your life again and find happiness again. Congrats on the promotion. just_me_2006: Exactly. That little boy has found himself on a very (statistically speaking) predictable path to future anger problems, juvenile hall to god knows what. All that trauma before age 5 is not great.   Reminder - I am not the original poster.

Relocating vanity in tiny bathroom
We are renovating a tiny bathroom (3rd pic). Originally, I wanted to move the vanity to the wall opposite the bath, which would allow room for a double basin and a mirror above the vanity - however it is looking quite cramped. Does this seem like a terrible idea? What is the minimum bathroom width that people would attempt this on? Edit: I'm getting a lot of feedback that I should move the bath to the back wall and put the vanity on the wall between shower and bath. Any idea what this would add to the cost? submitted by /u/CalderandScale to r/AusRenovation [link] [comments]

A lot of things that they used to do is now becoming more clear, like the fact that once or twice a week they often go out together and my wife would always come back super happy and giggly, she would tell me how her day was, but when i would try to initiate intimacy later in the day she would always say she’s too exhausted (she has an insane s*x drive) i am spiraling and i have no one in my life to turn to. my phone has been absolutely blowing up with messages from both my girlfriend, her trash friends and my brother but i can’t even bring myself to read them. i am spiraling and i don’t know what to do anymore. i feel like the life i have dreamt of as a kid is completely ruined and i feel too old to restart. my life is over update 1: it’s 12:28 and ive read all comments and working on responding. thank you so much for the support, and the two awesome guys who dmd me about their experiences. before the update i want to answer a few questions. “wife or girlfriend??” she’s was my girlfriend. when she gave birth to our son, i gave her a temporary ring and promised her i would marry her when i settle my college debt. i haven’t called her my girlfriend in years, i introduced her as my future wife. im sorry for adding that in the post and causing confusion. i was so broken typing it and kept thinking how she was supposed to be my wife in less than a year. “why didn’t you confront them and tell everyone?” my body completely froze and i shut down. it’s easier said than done. “isn’t it weird they’d joke about it? wouldn’t they wanna keep it a secret?” i don’t know how to answer this. when my family or my brother would joke about it i’d always get uncomfortable and shut it off. “she didn’t let you have friends?” it’s a little more complicated than that. she would often (now im aware it’s gaslighting but im still in denial) that i seem like i prioritize my friends over her & our son due to that fact after work i would quickly come home, shower, play with our son a little before bed time and run back out to a bar or event with my friends. i don’t think ive actually hung out with any of my friends in a few months. all i do is talk to online friends occasionally. my friends all drifted away a little bit when i kept using the “the wife (girlfriend) doesn’t want me outside” excuse. “she was gone for so long and no one noticed? and how were they so comfortable to be almost completely naked?” when my girlfriend left during my son opening gifts, she said she was having bad cramps so she was going to lay down for a bit. i don’t have an excuse for my brother because i don’t know. and as for the naked part, i wish i knew. for the actual update, I have replied to my girlfriend. I told her we can talk in the morning & she immediately started spam calling me, but i ignored all of them and kept it short with her. As for my brother, I simply just told him if he died nothing in my life would change. My brother and I have never been particularly close but he was still considered my bestfriend. He helped us out when my girlfriend was going through PP and gave me the bro talk when she was diagnosed with many mental disorders. i feel absolutely disgusted that i let him get that close to us. And i feel even more stupid for not noticing the most blatantly obvious red flags. I am unable to afford a lawyer. most of my savings would be wiped. I have never had to deal with legal stuff so all I’ve been doing is searching cheap lawyers on google. apart of me still wants her to be my official wife, and i have been looking at pictures of our son and trying to convince myself that he looks like me, but it’s getting so much harder. I am so broken, and I have nothing else. If he’s not my son, I don’t know what I’ll do with myself. I plan on telling my mother & father first before she gets the chance the spin the story, and hopefully I can come back in a few days or weeks with an update as I read paternity test take a long time. Thank you to everyone. update 2: I don’t think anyone will see this, so I made a new post, but long story short, She’s not sure my son is mine and I’m done. Relevant Comments: Deleted: Yeah, the red flag in there was she didn't let you have friends. And she has been using that weakness she created against you. Even her own kid, against you. Double child support, extra for her vanity? Could be. OP: I never really viewed it as a “red flag” because i was spending a lot of time with my friends for a while. i have a lot of online friends from gaming but even then, they are just online, i can’t actually have “fun” with them if that makes sense. gleaming-the-cubicle: Get a lawyer, get a paternity test OP: i don’t know how i could possibly get a lawyer, im an average guy making an average wage, i think id blow my entire savings + more affording lawyers and court fees based on what i see Tess27795: You need a lawyer and a paternity test. You will also need therapy. You need to take care of yourself. I know it seems impossible now, but you will survive this for a better day. Just keep moving. You can explain it to HR or a manager at work. You may need some time off. Please be kind to yourself. No one deserves this type of betrayal. The therapy will help you trust yourself again one day. OP: Thank you a lot. My boss knows a tiny bit of what’s going on and has given me a week off. As for therapy, I can’t afford it. I’ve honestly been drowning in debt, I’ve been dealing with still paying off hospital bills, my wife’s emergency c section, the new car she convinced me to finance and a lot of other things. Therapy would just add onto that. But im going to try and see if my friends are still willing to talk to me even though i have been icing them out for a few months. I appreciate the advice.   *I have been raising my brothers son for 4 years. * - July 20, 2025 (1 day later) I made a post yesterday talking about how I caught my ex cheating on me with my brother. I now found out that she doesn’t know if our son is mine or his and I am fucking spiraling. I can’t believe this is genuinely my life right now. Everything I’ve ever had fell apart in 2 hours. after i made the first post, i decided to call a meeting with my family and my ex, i told them i wanted to talk about something serious and had them all come over to my place. my mom, dad, brother, and ex all showed up. my son was with my cousin for the day. i sat everyone down and just told them straight up what i saw at the party. my brother immediately jumped in saying it was a misunderstanding, she was feeling “ugly and lonely”, it was nothing, etc. he was talking so fast it was obvious he was lying. My mother then started crying and my father didn’t say anything. i just sat there and waited for my ex to say something. I rehearsed so many ways of how this conversation could probably go and listened to a lot of advice in my other post but all I got out was “Is [sons name] mine?” All she could fucking say was “I don’t know” and started crying. my heart dropped. i asked how long it’s been going on and she said it started around the time we were trying for a baby. so basically since the beginning. I have basically been raising my nephew for 4 years. I can’t get into much detail at this point, because I barely remember what happened. All I remember is both me and my brother on the floor and we are both bloody. I started screaming for all of them to get out as my ex started crying saying she’s sure our son is ours. But i have 0 reason to believe it’s mine and I’m done. I have spent my entire life dreaming on building a huge family. we were supposed to be trying for another baby in a few months and my entire life is just falling apart in such a short amount of time. I don’t even know what advice i could possibly get at this point. I’ve already made an appointment for a paternity test against her wishes, but I can’t even think right now. My life is done and over with. Relevant Comments: CocoaAlmondsRock: Step 1: Get a paternity test. Step 2: Don't wait -- call a lawyer on Monday and start the divorce process. Step 3: Mute your STBX and trashy brother. (Don't block them -- you may need their messages.) Block any family member who says you should "forgive" or "be the bigger person." Step 4: Get your ducks in a row. Spend not another night in the same place where she is. Separate your finances. If you have a house, whose name is on the deed? What about vehicles? Figure out where you will live. Listen to your lawyer!! Step 5: Figure out what you're going to do if you are NOT the biological father. Hate to tell you, but you're legally responsible for financial support. Since you know who the father is if it's not you, talk to your lawyer about whether you can sue your brother to oblivion. hiroism4ever: FIRST your life isn't done and over with, as hard as it is to see in this moment. You aren't too old, either, you're still very young - the beginning of adulthood still. With that said, reach out to local lawyers like others suggested. No contact but don't block family and her. Get test to verify if it's your child or not. You dont know anything for sure about the child - if it is yours, hes yours still and you will regret not being there if you try cutting him out too. No drugs, no drinks, don't let the courts use anything against you in your upcoming case and divorce. And again I cannot reiterate enough, your life is not over. You slammed into the rock bottom hard, but life isn't over. You will rebound, and your future self and future family (and potentially your current child) will be thankful you didn't give up. Many have rebounded much later in life than you, you can recover and have a future too.   Deleted update on August 21, 2025 I didn’t think i’d ever come back to do an update, but i feel like i owe it to everyone. this is just a continuation of events, everything is on my page it’s been a month & a half since i found out the truth and i honestly didn’t think things could get any worse but they did. the dna test came back and my son isn’t mine. i felt like my whole chest collapsed when i read it. i sat in my car holding that paper until the sun went down and i couldn’t even drive home. i’ve been raising my brother’s kid this whole time, i felt a mixture of relief because apart of me accepted it might be his but my heart is absolutely shattered. the fallout was a mess. there was yelling, crying, everyone talking at the same time. my ex was on her knees begging me not to leave her, saying she’d do anything. my brother was red in the face screaming that the kid was his and i ruined his life. my mom was crying and telling me i was tearing the family apart. i just stood there shaking, my hands in my hair, trying to breathe while they all closed in on me. i’ve never felt so small in my own life. it was like the whole world turned on me in one night. i told my ex that we are over and i didn’t care what she did with the kid, i feel guilty about this because i feel already so emotionally detached from him. after that, everything just got worse. my brother showed up drunk at my buddy’s house a few days later pounding on the door and screaming that i “stole his family.” he was yelling that the kid was his and he deserved to be with his “real dad.” i told him to leave and he tried to fight me right there in the yard until the cops came and dragged him off. i’ve never seen someone so pathetic in my life. my ex hasn’t stopped trying to get me back. she’s been showing up crying, saying she can’t live without me, begging me to forgive her. last week she called me at 2am saying she was going to kill herself if i didn’t come over. i didn’t go. i can’t anymore. i don’t even know if it was real or just another way to guilt trip me. i got a few messages from her friends saying im a piece of shit for abandoning a child and leaving my ex to suffer alone. i don’t even understand why im the one receiving all the backlash, my father is the only one who refuses to speak on the situation the part that hurts most is my mom. she told me if i don’t take my ex back and “fix the family” she doesn’t want anything to do with me. my own mother chose my cheating ex and my brother over me. she said i was “abandoning” my son. i had to remind her he isn’t mine, and she hung up on me. i haven’t heard from her since. i feel like i lost everyone. my brother. my mom. my ex. my son. i’ve been drinking too much just to fall asleep and every morning i wake up feeling worse. i don’t even recognize my life anymore.   *I raised my nephew for 4 years [9 months later] * - March 16, 2026 (9 months later) Hey guys, It’s been about 240 days since my last post and a lot of people asked for an update back then. I’m not sure if anyone will see this or care, but i’m sharing for anyone who’s interested. The paternity test eventually came back and confirmed what I was already bracing myself for. he wasnt my son. That was probably the hardest sentence I’ve ever read in my life. For a long time I didn’t even know what to do with that information. I had spent four years raising him, building my entire identity around being his dad, and then suddenly that reality just… stopped existing. I wish i could be cool and say i crashed out and tore everyone’s life apart, but sadly, this is real life. i didn’t do anything. I couldn’t do anything but cry. I have been getting extreme hate for this decision, despite raising him for 4 years, but i am not interested in staying in his life and have not seen him in 7 months. It’s been hard, it’s disgusting and selfish of me to abandon and a little child like that, but everytime i looked at him, all i saw was my brothers face, it got to the point were i was having disgusting thoughts of hurting the kid so i eventually had to get myself voluntarily admitted for 72 hours due to how scary those thoughts were, which led me to not seeing him again. My brother disappeared and refused to step up. He won’t claim the kid, won’t help, nothing. Last I heard he basically denies responsibility whenever it comes up. That alone told me a lot about the kind of person he is, and I don’t have a brother anymore as far as I’m concerned. There has been absolutely 0 communication between us. My parents chose to keep trying to “fix the family” and push forgiveness instead of holding anyone accountable. They kept inviting me to dinners with him, telling me “blood is blood,” and saying I should move on for the sake of peace. Eventually I realized they cared more about pretending things were normal than what actually happened to me. I cut them off completely. Haven’t spoken to them in months and honestly my life has been quieter because of it. Not to demonize religion, but both of my parents are hardcore christian’s and often try to upkeep looks for their church. They have told them a watered down version of events, but I truly cannot care enough to get the real story out to them. As for my ex, she’s basically couch surfing now. Friends places, relatives, wherever she can stay temporarily. I don’t really keep tabs on her but that’s what I hear through mutual people. I don’t hate her the way I did in the beginning anymore, mostly I just feel nothing. After the paternity test, I completely ghosted her. She came with her parents to pack all of her stuff together while i (admittedly an asshole move) was on the couch watching to catch a cheated (jubal stories are bs but funny lol) on full volume. Didn’t look or talk to her once. I have last heard she is constantly jumping relationships, in and out of hospitals and keeps fighting for my brother to come back. What kind of hurts about that is, after the paternity test, everyone seemed more gravitated towards my brother stepping up instead of seeing if i was okay. My ex only bombarded me with hateful messages before I blocked her, no apologizes, lack of sympathy, just nothing. I do not know where she is now. My life now is… simple. I wish i could say my life bloomed, i found love, found a great job.. but sadly… I’m still at the same boring job I had when I wrote the original post. The only difference is I got promoted to a position that’s, I guess, “okay.” Nothing glamorous, but it pays a bit more and keeps me busy. Routine ended up being one of the only things that helped me stabilize. Mentally I’m still repairing myself. The first few months were brutal. Therapy helped a lot. So did time, even though everyone hates hearing that. I still think about the kid sometimes and that part will probably always hurt, but the constant spiral I was in back then isn’t my daily reality anymore. this will likely be the last ever update, but thank you reddit for being there for me. Relevant Comments: PuzzleheadedTap4484: I feel for you OP but I really feel bad for that kid. He’s an innocent party in all this. A crappy mom whose couch surfacing with a child, a biological dad who never stepped up, a dad he knew all his life that ghosted him due to paternity (but I get it and do understand why), and his life imploded. Hopefully the grandparents have given him a stable life. I’m glad you’re in therapy and I hope it helps you move on from this terrible chapter in your life. Hopefully with time you are able to start living your life again and find happiness again. Congrats on the promotion. just_me_2006: Exactly. That little boy has found himself on a very (statistically speaking) predictable path to future anger problems, juvenile hall to god knows what. All that trauma before age 5 is not great.   Reminder - I am not the original poster.

Relocating vanity in tiny bathroom
We are renovating a tiny bathroom (3rd pic). Originally, I wanted to move the vanity to the wall opposite the bath, which would allow room for a double basin and a mirror above the vanity - however it is looking quite cramped. Does this seem like a terrible idea? What is the minimum bathroom width that people would attempt this on? Edit: I'm getting a lot of feedback that I should move the bath to the back wall and put the vanity on the wall between shower and bath. Any idea what this would add to the cost? submitted by /u/CalderandScale to r/AusRenovation [link] [comments]

59" Bathroom Vanity Size Problem
Hello, We want to replace my current vanity and top in my bathroom with the new one. Issue is dry wall edge to drywall edge is 59" and everything in the world seems to be 60". The new vanity and top should be in the same size (59") and double sinks. I don't know what I can do now Any ideas how to do this properly either cut off the drywall or buy the 60" vanity and make it fit? submitted by /u/teetran39 to r/BathroomRemodeling [link] [comments]

Double vanity or having a bath more important in ensuite
Wanting to renovate our ensuite bathroom. I don’t think we can fit a bath and double vanity / sink. Which would prioritise? I would love a bath personally but we will most likely upgrade our house in a few years time so want to also know what would be better for reselling. If it doesn’t matter too much I’d definitely pick a bath since we’ll be here for a while! submitted by /u/Prior_Feature3993 to r/AusRenovation [link] [comments]

Double vanity from single, is this OK?
I realize it would be best to cut the wall and replumb for a double vanity. May end up there but hoping to avoid it if possible. It’s a kids bathroom, really just want to be able to have two kids brushing teeth at the same time. Everything is just dry fitted at this point. Central drawers on vanity make this way more cumbersome than I would have liked. I could put the P trap in the center but then it’ll be hidden behind the drawers. I feel more comfortable having more access to it. Not crazy about having a joint behind the drawers. May just run a solid piece of pvc.

Should I do one large vanity or two smaller vanities in a mostly primary but occasionally shared bathroom?
I’m remodeling a bathroom that will mostly be used as part of the primary suite, but occasionally a guest might need to use it too. It’s not a true shared “Jack and Jill,” but there’s another bedroom nearby that doesn’t currently have its own bathroom, so guests would sometimes use this one. The space is about 11’ x 11’. I’m torn between doing one large double-sink vanity or two smaller separate vanities. I like the idea of one large vanity for the extra counter space and simplicity, but two smaller vanities could make it feel more balanced or upscale. For a mostly primary but occasionally guest-used bathroom, what would you choose — one large vanity or two smaller ones? Any design or resale insights are welcome! submitted by /u/Eye2eyebookie to r/BathroomRemodeling [link] [comments]

Upgraded bathroom from single to double vanity
Second big project that I’ve tackled alone in my house. Guest bathroom had old single sink vanity with laminate top and a large space to the left of the sink was pretty useless (original picture was the staged picture when we purchased the house). I didn’t want to continue applying lipstick on this pig, so we decided to upgrade the vanity, bathroom mirror, and lighting. Did everything myself including electric, drywall, and converted the pipes and drain from the single to double vanity. Overall, pretty happy how it came out. Mostly sharing because I’m a resident in the medical field, and hope to inspire any one who is afraid to tackle a project like this. Took a number of weekends and late nights, but with the help of a few YouTube videos and patience I was able to knock it out. submitted by /u/Chitown_Derp to r/DIY [link] [comments]

I can't believe I did it!
I thought to myself, "the kids' bathroom could use a fresh coat of paint!" It was fun explaining to my husband why I then ripped up the tile floor, tore out the vanity and mirror, and removed the toilet over the course of a single day. ......and then, several hours into the following day, I was still scrolling online trying to find the perfect paint color to make the bathroom look bigger, types of vanities, etc. The only progress I made is doubling my Pinterest board and "Ideas" album in my screenshot gallery.🤦‍♀️ BUT.....apparently the kids not having a toilet and having to use our shower was good motivation, because I finished in a week!!!! (For context, I added a Murphy bed to our guest room. It was supposed to take an afternoon. It took me eleven months). Literally, every "idea" I have is like this. This room is the only time ive EVER completed a project. I always get excited and make the idea bigger and bigger in my imagination until its beyond what I can reasonable complete. Even the stuff I "completed" in the past is never really completely done. I hope you guys understand this and can relate. I've always hoped it was an ADHD thing, and not a Me thing. But just this once, I did it! It's almost enough to make me want to go finish some old projects. Almost. But instead, I'm planning what the master bathroom could look like... submitted by /u/GroversGrumbles to r/adhdwomen [link] [comments]

Unpopular opinion: I hate double vanities
I’m open to having my mind changed, but I just don’t understand the modern obsession with double vanities. What, your partner can’t wait literally 2 minutes for you to finish brushing your teeth before they demand to brush theirs? You and your partner have to dye your hair at exactly the same time? You guys pluck your eyebrows together? What is it? Bathrooms are usually quite small spaces and adding in a second vanity is just such a waste of space and makes me question what the heck you get up to in there. I’ve heard the argument that “my partner is really messy and I’m really clean so I like my own vanity area” but I don’t buy that for two reasons: 1) if half the vanity is messy then the whole bathroom looks messy, and 2) you know what would really help a messy partner? Storage. Storage that you can’t fit into the bathroom because you decided on a double vanity. So I know I’m gonna get roasted by double-vanity-loving people in here, but I really don’t like them and I strongly believe there are better ways to remodel a bathroom. submitted by /u/Blood_sweat_and_beer to r/interiordecorating [link] [comments]
