All of the comments are saying step brother did the right thing.

I mean, there's "did the right thing" and then there's "being taken out to a celebratory dinner for putting your stepbrother in the hospital" :psyduck:

Older kid disobeyed his parents, stepbro probably feels like poo poo for beating up his brother already and likely just reacted out of fear or panicked. Sucks he got his jaw cracked, but it's his own fault for not telling his boxer brother about the party / that he was sneaking in. I mean come on, the good thing about siblings is that you can help each other dodge the parental arm of the law.

i probably wouldn't have given him presents for it though, that's pretty funny and also sad.

Speaking of that!

My [16F] sister fights for the UFC. My youngest brother [9M] hid behind her when he was scared. My father is livid

quote:

Hello, I need to keep this really short. I am super busy at the moment so apologies.

My sister fights for the UFC. She is doing OK for herself and she adores our little brother. Our family went to a haunted house at Disneyland for Halloween. Some people recognized her and asked for a picture. My brother got scared at one point and his behind her. He was peering out. He held my sisters hand for a while.

My father is going on this "I'm not a man" crisis because my brother went to my sister for protection and not him.

tl;dr: Father is being stupid and thinks he's not a man.

(Also, yes, it is weird.)

Yeah, seriously, guys. That seventeen year old ghost with a broken jaw deserves our sympathies and help with his murderer-brother.

I get what you're saying and I'm sure there's a significant overlap between 'would like to shoot a 'shadowy' intruder to death' and 'the stepbrother did nothing wrong', but the stepbrother...actually did nothing wrong. If someone breaks into your house while you're sleeping and there you are very statistically likely to be harmed or killed.

I mean his family's reaction after the fact is a little questionable, but the stepbrother wasn't out of line. Is it good that this kid got his jaw broken? No! Is it a reasonable punishment for sneaking out? Jesus, no.

The broken jaw kid didn't deserve to get punched and the stepbrother was trying to protect his family. Nobody has to be wrong or malicious here. A bad thing happened and everyone is worse off.

That's why it's funny.

I don't blame the brother, I blame the parents for making the OP feel alienated from a family where he's already the "outsider" with at least three step-siblings and no full siblings. Having to sit out from a celebratory family dinner, because you're in the hospital, because the person the dinner is being thrown for put you there, and that's why the dinner is being thrown in the first place, has to be one of the loneliest feelings imaginable. There HAS to have been a way for them to ease MMA stepbrother's feelings without treating the OP like complete trash.

You're right, I didn't mean to imply that, but throwing the brother a "great job protecting the house" dinner is supremely hosed up.

Given the step-family dynamics, it'd be pretty hosed-up of them to have any sort of celebration while he's in the hospital without making an attempt at including him, even if him being put in the hospital wasn't the explicit reason for the celebration. That part makes it REALLY hosed-up.

I am 33 and I made this has been the worst year of my life.

4 years ago I fell in love with a lovely girl, E, who was 24 at the time. She is perfect - beautiful, smart and witty. Somehow she fell for me too and our relationship was perfect. She gave up everything and moved half way across the country to follow me to my dream job. Everything was amazing.

In April this year a new girl, NG, started at my workplace, and I became infatuated. She was super friendly, and I kept reading signs that she was into me.

I’ve always thought of myself as a pretty nice guy and wouldn’t betray E ever. Months went by and my obsession had grown exponentially. So (and I know some goons are expecting this) I started to look into open relationships. I read books, watched documentary and looked at forums for advice. I knew E had never considered this, and I had never until this point. I had to have NG.

Eventually one drunken night I brought it up, E kept thinking I was joking so I let it die. A few days later I plucked up the courage and told E everything, about NG, about how we could start to see other people whilst still being a couple. Exactly like online guides said I should bring it up.

E didn’t speak to me for a week. She was clearly angry and understandably so. However, to my amazement in July she agreed. I was ecstatic, I had the perfect loving life.

E was working a pretty lovely job, but going to the gym and there were a few guys there she said she wouldn’t mind hooking up with. My heart twisted, but its only fair I thought.

After a few days I asked out NG, and this is where it falls apart. She’s a loving lesbian, a femme or lipstick or whatever. She’s just a friendly person. But she is mortified that I would do this to E. Eventually it spreads through the whole company, and I am an office joke.

Meanwhile E has already hooked up with a few guys. Eventually she starts regularly seeing a guy named M. He’s tall, fit, etc. Better shape than me.

I go out regularly on my own, because other than my work and E I know no-one in this place. I haven’t even gotten a number. Other than a few girls who stopped replying Tinder has only matched me with bots.

E and I have grown apart. She’ll sleep at M’s place. She doesn’t kiss me goodbye anymore, but she is still eerily friendly with me.

E would rarely orgasm through penetration, so I’d often go down on her or use a toy. Several times I’ve walked into our apartment before and heard E and M in bed. M makes her come through just loving, she clearly loves it. She’s giving him everything as well, I think even anal which I never got.

I know a lot of people will think this sounds a lot like SA’s favourite C-word but its not really the same.

I've still not hooked up with anyone. NG and the office hate me. E doesn't sleep with me anymore. Instead last night I sat in the apartment, reading the forums when E came out our bedroom dripping with M’s cum. She just looked at me and said hey as she walked to the bathroom.

I know no one here, all my bridges are burnt. Can I convince her to be exclusive again? A lovely as I may seem I can’t bare the thought of losing her and being alone.

It's always amazing to see someone who manages to override any notion of common sense because of a sexual fantasy playing out in their head, especially when they are in their loving mid-thirties. Like, that's an immense amount of emotional immaturity and cognitive dissonance.

- Assuming a woman you work with and don't know personally who is nice and friendly secretly wants you.
- Then going further and assuming that not only does she want you, she wants you in the context of being your sexual sidepiece, not your girlfriend.
- Then being so certain of this, you are willing to harass your current girlfriend into accepting this arrangement.

Her turning out to be a lesbian is the best thing at the end of the story.

This is the piece that gets overlooked the most. Even putting aside the can of worms that is personal feelings on monogamy, most people you meet in your daily life are not onboard with that! Even assuming the girl is actually into you why the gently caress would she want to be the trial run side piece in your open relationship. Like I'm just imagining some cute bubbly girl being approached by the overweight mid-30s programmer in her office as he proceeds to pitch the great opportunity to gently caress him a couple times with the glowing endorsement of his girlfriend.

I'm [F19] celibate and my partner [M23] might break it off or hook up with another woman unless we have sex

quote:

My partner and I are in a kinda open, casual relationship which we know is temporary. (open romantically, not open sexually.) We've been seeing eachother since mid-July and everything in the relationship has been going fine except sex. I told him on the very first date that I am chaste so I allowed him to be prepared for that. I'm chaste for personal, spiritual, and health reasons. He told me he thought he could be happy with everything we had and let go of the lack of sex but it is a few months into it and he says he can't take it. He told me he used to fantasize about having sex with me all the time, but now that he realizes it won't ever happen, he's begun fantasizing about it less and he's starting to have sexual dreams about other women. I asked him if he's started fantasizing about other women and he said "not yet." He tells me about how his yearning for sex is so large, and that he's worried he might try to have sex with another woman to fill the void. He keeps telling me that he's going to hold out for as long as he possibly can and that he hopes he doesn't crack. but it doesn't make me feel any better, only guilty. He tells me he would feel awful after if he slept with another woman and he knows I would feel awful too and the relationship would have to end. He's a very hypersexual guy who has just been hooking up with women for the past two years. When he gets flirtatious with someone, it's almost like a new persona takes over, and I can definitely see him either hooking up with someone else or having the thoughts of sex with other women overcome him and drive him to break it off with me so he can finally have sex again. It doesn't help that his job and hobbies of going out by himself swing dancing make him surrounded by women all the time. Not having sex makes him feel like he can't be himself since it is such a large part of him. We agreed that it doesn't feel right to end so soon but we just can't find a solution. I feel we really do love eachother. I feel pressured to have sex with him so he'll stay and solve this problem altogether. But I can't. It's such an odd situation with weird circumstances. Maybe it needs to end but it just feels too early and we're afraid of the pain. But I don't want it to get ugly either.

What should I do? when should I do it?

TLDR; Celibate girl and hypersexual guy can't find solution to Guy's longing for sex. Guy is so hypersexual & flirtatious that other women are appearing in his dreams and he might get into a state where he just hooks up with another woman to get his fill or the longing devours him and he breaks it off

Edit: He has self-described himself as hypersexual, I didn't just label him like that. Maybe you could just use the term "high sex drive" if you want.
In my head he's Stanley Ipkiss after he puts on the Mask.
