I don't think that's fake. Every time there's a story on the news about a guy abusing his kids or stepkids/pimping them out, there's always a wife going "Well I couldn't do anything to stop him because I was afraid he'd leave me." I'm just surprised she hasn't gone all the way to accusing her daughter of being a cheap little slut tryna steal her man.

Everything about this story is hosed Yeah....of all the bullshit people like to call on these stories, that one is the most "this happened and is more common than you think" that I've seen in a while. For something lighter: quote:I’m constantly cleaning up after my roommates, “Kerry” and “Dinah,” who are sisters. While Kerry is a more considerate roommate overall, she is a messy cook and leaves spilled food/dirty dishes all over the kitchen. She’ll return to clean up later, but usually it’s after I’ve cleaned up (I need to use the kitchen, too!) and she never wipes up her spills. Dinah drives me up the wall: She’s a pack rat, never puts anything away, never takes out the recycling, dirty dishes on the counters, etc. They’re both aware of how much the mess stresses me out. Kerry sometimes cleans with me during the week, but Dinah cleans irregularly and follows me around the house to talk at me while I clean. I’ve spoken to them both about wiping up spills and washing dishes (we don’t have a dishwasher), but after a year I still feel like their maid. Should I break down and hire a cleaning service? Boo hoo, why won't these women clean up after themselves when I do it for them constantly.

Me [28 F] with my roomate [25 M] fingered my vinyl records while having hot sex with his boyfriendquote:I went away for the weekend. My roommate, whom I have no problems with otherwise, seems to have had a romantic night in our living room this past weekend with his boyfriend. There's a bottle of lotion/lube on the coffee table, and few fingerprints on several of my vinyl records--like several inches deep into them. He has not touched my records EVER in the three months we have been living together. I told him I didn't mind early on, but apparently he doesn't know how to hold a record(!) Fingerprints, lotion, and lots of dusty fuzz and scuff marks are on several of my records (Billy Joel: The Stranger, Elton John: Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, Vampire Weekend, etc). One of which I just bought for $20. I can only assume that they were drunk or simply grossly negligent.

I love my friends but I can't imagine putting up with their messes on a daily basis. I'm not fastidiously clean or anything, but without fail there was always at least one guy who liked to cook and take forever to clean up, or had no idea that there was a step after putting your dishes in the sink. One time I just stuck a guy's dirty dishes in a garbage bag and put them under the sink, he never did ask where they went

Jeffrey of YOSPOS posted:Have you ever tried the approach you're implicitly suggesting here? If the people you live with don't care to clean, stopping cleaning doesn't prompt them to start, it just leads to a messy house that you're the only one stressed about. I'm not suggesting she go on a race to the bottom. It's just interesting that it's been a problem for a year and despite her efforts it hasn't changed. Just throw in the towel after a few months and hire a cleaning service since she can afford it as she implies, or split it with the roomies.

OK, which one of you is this post about?quote:About six weeks ago my husband and I received an anonymous email that said we should check out what our daughter-in-law was posting on an Internet forum we’d never heard of. We were given a link and her username. We were shocked to discover she was spending vast amounts of work time posting to this forum. More upsetting was what she was posting about us and our son. We have been generous financially and otherwise to them and their children, but according to her posts she resents us and thinks we are “interfering.” We don’t think we are, and we’ve never had our offers refused. Worse is how she talks online about our son. He is very helpful around the house and she acknowledges he gets the kids ready for day care most mornings, plays with them after work, then works in the evening at home to advance his career. Despite this, she gripes about him and details the ways he annoys her. Perhaps the very worst is finding out she has a rather unsavory past, including phone-sex work, drug addiction, and embezzlement. We knew nothing of this, but she mentions these things without a trace of guilt or embarrassment on the forum. Do we say anything to our son about what we’ve discovered? There is a part of me that would love to just ignore all we’ve learned and try to maintain a good relationship with her because we love our son and grandchildren, but my husband has been steaming about our son being “taken” by someone we suddenly realize may not be a very nice person.

The no respect for private property post got me heated. Who the gently caress thinks it's reasonable that once a dilapidated property gets purchased and renovated you can still do what you want on it? And then be mad when you get called out for it too. It's like what if people just started loving off on your land and home, you just going to say, "oh well they did it before!" Buy a gun and build a wall.

Apparently she has been in love with a couple of guys during our relationship, but she broke the contact with them since she did not want to lose me. Just to make it clear, she never did anything with them, she feels very strongly about cheaters. fake edit: oh hey
