I need advice. My best friend will be going back to work when her son is 12 weeks. She has asked me to babysit every Tuesday since she can't afford daycare. She said she would cook my family dinners on Tuesday. At first I just assumed I was doing this for free I didn't even think about money.. at all (maybe because I'm a good friend) but my mom said right away "well she better be paying you" now it's making me second guess whether or not I should be compensated . It will be every Tuesday for who knows how long. I mean would you do this for free? She said she would make us dinner at least. I don't know... I don't really feel comfortable asking anyway. :-(

@beebaby, @chelseaepley, @mommajessica89, @neikadre, @renee556, Thank you ladies !!! I totally agree I should do what I feel is right and initially I wasn't expecting any sort of payment . whenever I need a babysitter or someone to let my dog out when I'm away I'm sure she would be willing . She lives 8 minutes from my house so it's not like a far drive :) plus my son is only around adults all the time so this will be good for him!

Maybe try trading. You watch her baby on Tuesday's and she watches yours for a grocery trip or a date night once a week.

@mamahood I definitely agree with beebaby I mean if she is your bf then u should be able to voice your opinions 2 her. Im sure u guys have both done stuff 4 each other for free or for cheap because of the friendship and I wouldn't let your mom or anyone else make u think like u need to charge her unless u really think u need to be paid. At the end of the day u and her just talk cuz simple things like this can ruin friendships.. good luck mama

Would you consider this cheating? What would you do

Would you consider this cheating? What would you do I need advice from a neutral stand point. Genuine advice of what you would do. Ds had his tonsils out last night. For some reason my gut about dh was not good. At night I logged into his Snapchat and saw he was talking to an old friend who he had a thing with. Last thing I was able to see was him saying it was hard to not log into those pictures and she then said she couldn't answer the phone because she was with her husband. I texted dh and asked what pictures was it so hard for him to not look at and I guess he called her and they talked. And she supposedly came clean to me and said they would just talk and vent about what stresses them. Dh said the same thing and I guess the pictures were of them from a long time ago of them and other friends hanging out. Dh started crying saying he never meant anything that everything looked like the perfect crime but that there was nothing there. I have since kept my distance and told him to give me space. At the moment I don't want to see him. I believe what they said but I'm so hurt and I don't want to be the stupid person to believe everything.
