my gf doesn't do the thing where she gets constantly derailed on tangents for each location or person she introduces she just feels the need to provide a full background of the topic itself. Like in the previous example where it was just coworker didn't do thing the were supposed to on group project, she'll start with when the project started, what the project is, who it's for, why it's being done, everything that needs to be done for the project, etc, before she gets to the actual point. Like all the reddit stories we read itt where someone has to provide the entire history of their relationship before spending the last paragraph on "and then they hosed my mom, I just dunno what to do guys". Honestly it's not that bad cause her work is interesting and I don't mind hearing about it, usually we're goin on a walk or something anyways when she's talking about stuff like that, but I still like to tease her about how all her stories start with when she was born. It's also p funny cause she's super quiet in groups/around people she doesn't know well so a lot of my friends assume she doesn't talk much, couldn't be farther from the truth.

Oh are we sharing annoying storytelling habits? My father in law will set up an amazing story, then refuse to tell the ending for no apparent reason: "Drunk Nerds, this one time, I was playing catch with my friend. We were 10. My mom comes out and pours me a big glass of beer. I had never had beer before. I chugged the whole thing." "Omigosh. What happened? Were you drunk? Why did she do that?" "Oh.... you know..." <shrugs> Then my mom will interrupt herself to ramble then jump right back into her original story. Like she'll do this mid-sentence, then finish the sentence once I've good and forgot how it began: "So the other day I went to the farmer's market, and I wanted to sit down and take a rest. So I sat down, and it turns out I sat on a- Oh, that reminds me I've got to put that rhubarb in the fridge. The last rhubarb went bad, and the whole kitchen stunk for hours, ripe tomato."

I don't think I've ever taken more than 5 minutes to tell a story or get a single point across unless I was trying to entertain someone. Do people who do these things think everything they say has to be entertaining?

That was kinda my fault too though, I should have noticed that she wasn't taking any turns at all. One time I was driving from Brampton to my friend's house in Toronto, missed the Spadina exit and didn't realize it until I was in Ajax. In my defence this was before GPS's or smartphones were ubiquitous.

Why do they always want to salvage things with an rear end in a top hat? I don't think I (F20) want to be in a relationship anymore with my boyfriend (M25) who said cruel and hurtful things about my deceased father As the title says, I'm 20. Boyfriend is 25. We've been together for over 2 years and have been living together for almost a year (July is when our 1 year lease is up) My dad has always had problems with his health. I grew up with him being overweight and being unhealthy. He eventually had his toes amputated due to diabetes and eventually became so overweight he needed help walking. I really think my dad had an addiction to food and he just never got help for it. Despite his health problems, my dad was ALWAYS there for me. My mom took off when I was 3 and never looked back. My dad worked his rear end off to support me as a single parent. Yeah there were times he messed up but I always knew he had my back if something ever went wrong and I could go to him about absolutely anything if I needed to I live almost 800 miles from my dad. When my boyfriend and I were looking for places to move to, he wanted to move to a city that has a higher cost of living and wanted to be closer to his parents who aren't in the best of health and are even older than mine. I relented and we moved. My boyfriend makes more significantly than I do, but he insists we split everything 50/50. It's actually caused arguments between us before. Even if I'm sometimes struggling during the month until payday, instead of it causing a fight, I pay 50% o f all the bills to keep him happy and complacent. I have given up a lot to make him happy and I think that's part of why I'm just so angry at him over this. It doesnt help that in the past I have had issues with spending - he likes to bring up the fact I once got myself into a small amount of debt and insists that keeping everything 50/50 is a way to make sure I don't put myself back in the same amount of debt or worse. My boyfriend has also persuaded me many times not to get a credit card because of how much I damaged my credit when I was young and reckless at 18 just starting out. My dad passed away from a heart attack in his sleep on Friday. Ive been more a wreck than ever since then. I had plans to at least call him on Easter and see how his went. Despite his health issues my dad has always been my best friend. When my uncle called me on tuesday to tell me my dad was gone I was ready to go back home. , the first thing I did was look into how much it would cost for me to go back home. I don't own a car (everything is within walking distance so there's really no need) and after doing some math, I realized I was short on the cost. I asked my boyfriend if he could help me out with the rest of the cost of the plane ticket, and he told me no. It hurt to hear but my boyfriend has always been a penny pincher and selfish with his money. When i told him it was for my dad's funeral he said he didn't care. There was no point in going to mourn a "dead fatass" who he "never liked" He t said he just didn't see a point. He then said there was no reason for me to go. I was just wasting my time by going. That it would just be money wasted I got angry and yeleld at him and called him an rear end in a top hat for being so mean. I'm so disgusted by his comment. I know, it's his opinion and he's right to have one, but god drat I just lost my dad. I'm really tempted to pack a bag and leave for a while, because he didn't have to say such hurtful and lovely things, but I don't know if that will do more harm than good. I'm really upset, and angry at him, and have told him this, and he just doesn't seem to give a crap. He just said "Ok" and started playing video games, completely ignoring me. If he's thought about apologizing, he hasn't shown me any interest in doing so I don't think what he can be forgiven. I'm trying really really hard to see it from his point of view but I just can't. Am I wrong for asking him to be a supportive partner and help? Am I wrong for thinking he would loan me the money and let me pay him back over time? He says I am but I don't think so. I'm thinking of getting a payday loan so I can be there and say goodbye to my dad. I don't think I want to be in a relationship with him anymore tl;dr: My dad passed away from a heart attack in his sleep after living unhealthy for all of my life. Boyfriend refuses to help me with the cost of going home and said really lovely things. I dont think I can forgive him and continue this relationship. I dont think there's any way to salvage this, is there? Advice would be really appreciated

If you find out a guy is having a bad day, and you make special stuffed cupcakes in his favorite flavor, and leave them for him with a note that says you hope his day gets better, he'll refuse to mention it until you see him next and ask if you can have your cupcake molds back and he'll say "I threw them in the trash." I know this.

Maybe he just said he threw them in the trash so that when he uses the cupcake mold to make you special thank you for being so kind and considerate cupcakes in your favorite flavor it will be that much more of a surprise. You should have stuck around for that.
