I'm pretty sure the post that got him probated was because he's still trying to compare everything to his "I ALMOST RAPED A GIRL BUT I DIDN'T AREN'T I A HERO" post which got him banned.

AKA we get it, you almost raped a girl, drop the loving subject.

e: I'm pretty sure the 2nd post wasn't an actual "I got sexually assaulted while passed out drunk" but instead it was yet another comparison to how great of a guy he is because he stopped himself from raping a passed out drunk girl

I mean maybe but to me it read like a very sloppy and clumsy "I was raped once when I passed out on a coach by a friend's fiance"
He sorta Kramer'd in with a "I was raped"

The girl in question was the one I had become obsessed with and had begun stalking. We had been really good friends for years and she's the sweetest and endearingly derpiest person I've known. She had become the most beautiful girl in the world to me, I lived and breathed her. My thoughts were consumed by this woman.

It doesn't come across that way at all. It's reaching pretty hard to try to make the context in that post include someone he said over a week ago. I don't know about you guys but to me it's pretty clear he was talking about being sexually assaulted. Why is Troposphere probating people for that?

I think it was a "shut up everyone" probie

Better ways to do that than to probate a user for a week for coming forward with their sexual assault experiences

I wish I could post content to lighten the mood but I'm at a work site and they have Reddit blocked.

Whatever the context, she still only chose to probate the one person who was talking about being sexually assaulted, and a week at that. When was the last time a poster in this thread was probated for more than six hours for a derail? I don't know what kind of context people are trying to dig up right now but you can actually see is pretty hosed up.

My mother died of cancer when I was 7. At that time my father was nowhere to be found, he had left my mother when I was less than one years old. I grew up with my mom and older brother. When my mom died my brother became my guardian. He took good care of me and always made me feel safe and comfortable. He has been mother and father and brother for me at the same time.

Two years ago my father came back and asked to be a part of our lives again. He said that he's changed and wants to make things right. He initially used to come around once a week for a few hours and it was nice. However recently in the past two months, he is acting creepy which makes me uncomfortable.

He texts me about my looks all the time. Tells me I look like a complete woman now. It makes me feel weird. Last week he asked me about my sex life which I'm not comfortable talking to him about it. [v]He asked if I watch porn and if I do, what positions I like. I mean this is creepy right?[/b] I don't like it. My brother talked to me about sex but it was about safety and consent and things like that. Never these details that my father asks.

I want him to stop these things, and that's all he talks about. Honestly I want him to stay away from me I don't like him, he gives me bad vibes. I know he's my father but I don't see him as family. He's just another person to me, a creepy person that makes me uncomfortable.

Should I tell my brother about these things and ask him to keep my father away? He has a good relationship with my brother, they've become close in recent months.

tl;dr: My father is being creepy and I hate it. What should I do?

I told my brother everything and showed him all the texts as almost all of you told me to do so. He was shocked. For a few minutes I couldn't say what he was thinking but after that he told me that I should have told him sooner, and that he will make sure our father never bothers us again. For a moment I thought he was upset at me but he was really furious at our father.

He asked our father to come over and told me to remain in my room until he leaves. They ended up having a big fight and they were loud which I could hear. Father was yelling that a parent has a right to raise his daughter as he sees fit, brother told him that he doesn't even know how to spell the word parent. He eventually left. He sent me a text that "your brother is way over his head, don't choose him over your own father". I replied (with my brother's permission) that "I'll choose him over a thousand sperm donors like you. I don't want to see you ever again". And then I blocked his number.

I'm very happy that my brother did this. I feel much better and safer now. He's always made me feel safe. When he has his own kids I'm sure he will be the most amazing father in the world as he has been one for me.

He said that he'll also inform the police and school, and if my father tries anything I should tell him immediately to maybe look for some legal way to keep him away.

I just hope that my sperm donor of a father stays away from us forever.

tl;dr: I told my brother and he confronted our father and told him to stay away and never contact us again. I blocked his number and social media.

My fiancee and I [33M] have been dating for almost 2 years. We got engaged 6 months ago and our wedding is in 2 months. She's a lovely person, inside and out, and has always seemed like such a confident and self-assured person. Or so I had thought. The wedding planning is really starting to wear her out. I try to help as best as I could, but it's still stressing her out immensely.

Three days ago, she went for a dress fitting. She returned home in tears. I asked her what was wrong and she said that she looked so bad in her gown. She said she looked "puffy" and "old". I reassured her that she did not, but she said that I "didn't understand".

After dinner yesterday, we were going over the online RSVPs together. When she came across my younger brother's RSVP, she got angry for whatever reason and asked, "Is he going to bring his girlfriend as his plus one?" I shrugged and said, "Probably."

She paused for a minute then replied, "I don't want her at my wedding." I asked her why, and she said that my brother's GF will be the "hottest girl there" and that she will "upstage" her. Now, my brother is dating an objectively stunning girl, who is actually a fashion model. They've been together for 2 years. She's also a sweet person and has met my fiancee and I. My fiancee never had a problem with her, which is why I was so confused at her sudden outburst.

My fiancee wanted ME to call my brother and tell him not to take his GF, which I thought was extremely awkward. She wants me to give him the excuse that the wedding ceremony and reception is now only "21 and up", although the drinking age in our country is 18. I told her that it was a dumb excuse and doesn't even make sense.

Still, my fiancee kept on pressuring me to do it. She then said that my brothers GF will "probably wear something slutty" because she "loves attention and showing off her body". She said a lot of other stuff and I got the impression that my fiancee was REALLY serious about not wanting her at the wedding. I thought she'd get over it this morning but she brought it up again and asked me whether I had called my brother yet.

I don't know what to do. My brother will think I'm crazy if I tell him the reason why my fiancee doesn't want his girlfriend at the wedding. His GF has even bought the wedding present. I feel so bad. I also feel like my fiancee is seriously starting to go off the deep end. I'm wondering what I should do at this point. Any advice would be appreciated.

TL;DR: Our wedding is in 2 months. My fiancee is getting very stressed. She now wants to ban my brother's GF from attending the wedding because she might upstage her. My fiancee is becoming insecure and frankly its worrying. What should I do?

Me [33F], about to get married; with my 'friend' [39M] who is exhibiting creepy behavior, and now I'm afraid of him.

So I've had this male friend for the past several years. We used to work together, and we have a lot in common, so we became work friends. There's been a lot of sexual tension between us over the years, but I know that's going to happen sometimes, so I don't think much of it. Nothing's ever happened, as ultimately, it just wasn't a big deal to me.

What's not a big deal to me, is a major deal to him. I'm getting married next month, and he's been ramping up his efforts to pursue me. He's been sending me very flirtatious messages. In the past, I didn't really care, and I didn't reciprocate. The last time that I saw him, he tried to kiss me (I pushed him away), and told me he's in love with me. This was majorly awkward, and I bolted as fast as I could.

Here's where it gets really creepy.

Before he tried to kiss me, he asked me to read some 'fiction' he wrote. It was a story about a man talking to a demon about a woman he loved. Inevitably, the description fit me. The man and the demon were talking about how he loved the woman, but she was trapped in a relationship with someone and she didn't know it, and his love for the woman equaled his hate for the man. The plot? Killing the man and rescuing the woman.

This seriously made my stomach turn. A lot. It seemed...serial killer like. I mean I know writing is supposed to be cathartic and an outlet, but it's scary to think that this is inside of him. I knew he was a bit 'dark', but poo poo guys, this was scary. I don't even know if he realized that I saw through the story, or if the purpose of the story was to tell me something. Either way, my stomach dropped.

So...back to when he tried to kiss me. I turned him down, and he said, what did you expect would happen when you met with me? And I told him that I met with him because I wanted him to cool down his behavior with me as I'm about to get married. My intention of meeting him couldn't have backfired more than it did, and in retrospect, I probably should've just gone no contact.

So, not only am I getting married, and he's showing zero respect for me and my relationship, but he's been with his current girlfriend for nearly eight years. Now he's telling me that they have an open relationship, and I don't really believe that, as it's the first I'm hearing of it.

He's been sending me messages like "I can't lose you. We're meant to be together" blah blah blah. Here's the thing...normally, I'd tell him to go fly a kite. But, after reading his story, I'm genuinely afraid. His behavior has been really unstable, and I don't know how to handle this. Thanks in advance.

tl,dr: Old work friend with a girlfriend of the past eight years has a thing for me, and I'm getting married soon. He's ramped up his efforts to be with me, and had me read a creepy story about him killing a man to save a woman he's in love with. I'm terrified and need advice on how to handle an unstable person.

(yes, the obvious answer here is to never have formed a friendship with him to begin with, I majorly messed up and misread him and probably missed many red flags...way past this point and I genuinely need good advice on how to deal with this).

I [21M] just found out that my girlfriend [20F] has a reddit account... which she uses to comment on my posts


Throwaway for obvious reasons. But this is the loving strangest thing. I've been dating Steph for 4 months. She doesn't use reddit. Or so I thought?

The other day, I was at her place while she was doing some housework. Kind of bored, I asked if I could check my email on her laptop, which was open and playing music. She said sure. As she went about her chores, I also decided to go on reddit for a bit.

When I went to log in, the drop down menu suggested a specific username (it didn't have the password saved, which means that even though she unchecked 'remember me' , it still remembered her username). At first I was just like a ha! She totally does reddit and was only pretending not to so I wouldn't ask for her user (can't blame her lol), but then I realized I RECOGNIZED the name.

Later when I went home, I looked it up. Every single thing this user had posted was IN RESPONSE TO ME. She literally only uses Reddit just to talk to me? And they weren't like overwhelmingly supportive or negative posts (so she's not using Reddit to bully me or otherwise). But she's just talking? It's so freaking weird.

What do I do? Do I call her out

tl;dr: Found out my girlfriend secretly has reddit. And she only uses it to respond to my posts. Should I tell her?

Edit: I'm just going to say that I posted this question because I was wondering if her behavior was dark/creepy/something I should be concerned about. Most of the replies make it seem like her behavior is lighthearted with nothing to really stress over, which is good! But I honestly did post this with serious intentions and concerns. Whoever posted the follow up question to this sub from the perspective of my girlfriend is just a troll.

Just disgusted. My best friend may have fooled around with my dad. What.The.gently caress? [17f, 18f, 44m]
So I'm not really sure where to post this. I was helping my dad with some stuff on his phone and I saw one of my friends' in his phone and got curious and I found some stuff that is DISTRESSING. I haven't confronted anyone yet but I don't know how long I can keep this a secret. Its really pretty gross.

I'm 17f and I live with my mom. Parents are not together anymore but I've always been close to my dad (44m). He is a bit of a flake but he is a good guy on the whole. I love him and I know he tries to be there for me. He is engaged to a really great woman and I thought he was happy in his relationship.

One of my closest childhood friends is Tara - 18f. She is like a sister to me and we have grown up together and she has known my parents for years. The messages I found between her and my dad were unbelievably suggestive. There were pictures too and it seemed like they had hosed. I don't know for sure but either way its totally wrong.

I can't keep this a secret and I feel sooo betrayed. By my dad for being such a creepy and by Tara for BANGING MY DAD. I just can't believe they would do something like this. Its been going on for a couple months based off the messages... maybe longer idk. So how do I confront? What do I say to them?

tl:dr found inappropriate messages that suggest my friend and my dad are hooking up. How do I confront them?
