My brother's friend is really overweight and he refuses to do anything that could potentially end in him being unable to fit somewhere. Like Six Flags, for example. Seems like safe is better than sorry in that situation.

If for no other reason, I need to lose weight because I want to be cremated. Getting big fatties into the ovens is sometimes not physically possible and they burn way too hot for a lot of ovens because of the excess fat. It's hell on the equipment and can start (unintended) fires.

Of course, the industry is slowly adapting.

My brothers fiancé (21f) heard me (16m) masturbating

quote:

I'll keep this embarrassing dilemma very short.

We're staying with family for the weekend and my brothers fiancé, Clare came with us. My room is right next to her room and I was masturbating last night. I got carried away and I wasn't thinking enough about how I could disturb her and then after about half an hour I heard her shifting around and then go to the toilet.

I'm 99% sure that she heard me, and both our beds are touching the wall so she might have even felt the movement.

She didn't say anything today, in fact she's acting totally normal but I don't think she's the type for confrontation.

Do I apologise? Make a joke out of it? It's the third time I've masturbated since I've been here and it's only today that I found out that a) her bed is next to the very thin wall and b) she's a light sleeper. She's probably heard me every time.

Tldr: brothers girlfriend heard me masturbating, probably more than once. Dunno if I should say anything.

[Illinois] Girl Venmoed herself $2400 from my phone at a party how can I get this money back?

quote:

Backstory, I'm 18 and just graduated high school, was at a party celebrating graduation at a house across town, and met this girl from another school and we clicked, we talked for a while and heavily made out, after which she said she had to go to the bathroom, but would "take sexy pics of herself" while there for me if I gave her my phone. She came back 5 minutes later and we talked and made out a bit more, until she said she had to leave. Sure enough there are sexy pics in my camera roll, but the next morning, i check my email and found this girl Venmoed $2395.43 (everything that was in my Venmo account) to an account that this was the only transaction on. I requested the money back via Venmo request but she still hasn't responded, all i have is her venmo (from this payment) and "sexy" pics of her in my camera roll. How can I go about gettting this money back?

Cash transfers using Venmo are not considered instantaneous and can be canceled after an initial transfer is sent. These transfers can take one to several days to transfer. The Better Business Bureau reports some scammers exploit this on Craigslist and other services.

I was at my Aunt's place last weekend for a BBQ. We had family and friends there for this BBQ. It's normally held at my place or my Aunts. We do these at least once a month to catch up with everyone. While everyone was downstairs I went upstairs to talk to my cousin, Kayla. She was sitting down on the chair near the balcony on her phone as usual texting her boyfriend. I leaned against the rail for the Balcony and the rail fell down and took me with it. My aunt failed to mention that it had somehow come loose. I fell and went through one of then loving picnic tables. The cheapest piece of poo poo wooden table my rear end. I'm a big guy because I work out in the gym and I've very physical with the sport I play.

I have a broken arm, broken collar bone, 3 broken ribs and just cuts and bruises from the fall. All I have been hearing from these loving people is how it was lucky I'm the one that fell and not one of the toddlers in the family. I don't feel bloody lucky. All I've been hearing is lucky it was not one of the kids.

tl;dr: All I keep hearing is that it was lucky it was I who fell and not a toddler.

It's lucky you fell and not a toddler! Fix my rail to prevent anyone from falling? Why would I do that?

I Am 26 and I have lived with my parents my whole life. I have never been away from home longer than 2 weeks.

Today is the second day after I moved out and I am really sad. I really miss my mom and dad. I miss my room and the family dogs.

To make things worse, my dad called me around 11:30pm drunk and he told me how much he missed me and he is sad that his only son has left the house. He said he watched me grow up and now, he's finding it hard with me not being home. My mom seems to be ok, but my dad is really bummed.

This is adding on to the emotions I am feeling, because now I know my dad is really sad also.

What are ways I can deal with my sadness and help cheer my dad up to?

I have not moved far only 40mins away, but it feels like I'm in another country.

Me 19M dealing with Manipulative 15F

quote:

TLDR She basically starts contacting me even though I want nothing to do with her! No we did not have sex I know the laws.

So i'm 19 and there is this 15 year old that started talking to me last year before I graduated hs. I never talk to younger girls but she literally went up to me and started talking to me. I'm not going to get into details and no we didn't gently caress but that chick is CRAZY.

At a point I do feel like I loved her but I guess she just wanted to use me for attention or something and as soon as I told her she got all hostile and Manipulative. She knows I have a hard time getting over people (another long story) So i'll go like a month or 2 of no contact, finally start to get over her only to have her text me.

I can't call the cops because she's younger, I don't want to tell anybody about this again because of the stupid age difference but this girl is cold and knows what she is doing.

I want to never think about her again but again she texts me as soon as i'm starting to move on and about to forget about her. I don't know what to do???

I (24M) think my girlfriend (23F) is a witch

quote:

No, this isn't a joke / a troll / whatever. I seriously think my girlfriend Jenny is a witch.

We've been together for the past 10 months. Great relationship overall, but I'm suspicious and I have reasons to be.

First of all, she had four relationships before me. One was during her high school age (2 years), and the other three were nine months, one year and one year and a half long. We live in a small place so here you know everything about everyone.

Well, three of these four guys never had girlfriends after her (and they're good looking, and stuff). They also now have lovely lives (while their lives weren't lovely while they were with her). They're lovely in terms of finances and socially. All of the three guys had cheated on her.

The fourth guy (one she was dating for a year), he never cheated on her. She was the one who ended the relationship (they just 'grew apart' and started seeing each other much less because of work and duties). He now has a normal life, a girlftiend etc.

So all this stuff is not why I think she's a witch, because coincidences happen.

A few weeks ago, I was hanging out with some friends at a local pub, and some guys and girls approached us (they knew people from my group). There was a conversation going and I mentioned being in a relationship with Jenny [surname]. So one of the girls in the group, Anne, said 'Oh Jenny... I know her from high school.'

Well later, I met with a good friend from that group (John) and he was good with Anne. John told me he had to tell me something Anne had told him. I asked what. He said (something like this):

"Well, Anne went to school with Jenny. She says Jenny was a little strange and people were kind of scared of her. It's because there was an incident when a classmate teased Jenny about a pair of jeans she had bought, and he wouldn't shut up, he commented on her butt and all. And later that day, he fell from the bicycle and broke his leg. And then, whenever someone would say something to Jenny and she didn't like it, something would happen to them on that same day. It was creepy.''

I thought it was funny at first, but then started thinking about it. Jenny has candles in her room. I mean, not colorful or anything, they are white but large candles. I noticed them a few months ago and asked what was that for and she said it was for when electricity is down.

She always gets what she wants. Does she need a job that she's not completely qualified for? She gets it on the first try. Does she need to pass an exam she didn't study that hard for? She passes it. And so on.

She is into herbalism and stuff. Not alternative medicine, she's just obsessed with herbs. She made her brother go to China and get her some plants that only grow there. O.o She has also written a book (Herbs, Plants and Trees) for herself.

She confessed to me that her grandmother wanted to drown her when she was a toddler. Her grandma held her head in a barrel of water and it was a miracle how she survived. I don't think this is a lie because my gf is not the type of person to lie about something big, and I've never caught her lying or anything, she never has some 'exaggerated' stories.

Her mother is a little creepy. She lives alone in a huge house and is very quiet. She doesn't work and she's a widow (Jenny's father died a few years ago). Her husband didn't leave any money, and she has never worked... Jenny or other relatives aren't helping out .. And she still manages to survive in such a huge house (isn't starving, electricity is working etc). And she's a quiet woman. She only talks when spoken to. She's also about 45
but looks like she's 35. Btw Jenny is 23 and looks like she's 18.

Btw Jenny was EXPELLED from primary school at the age of 10. I actually didn't know that, but her brother mentioned it and when he realized I didn't know he was like 'woops'. Anyway, she was expelled?! I asked why, she said it was because some parents set it up because they hated her mom or some weird story like that, I still don't get it. She had to move to another school, in this town (she is originally from a town across the country, but moved there).

Jenny is a nice person and I've never seen her fight with anyone. I don't get why she would get expelled.

So, I know a sound like an idiot. I didn't believe in any paranormal nonsense, and definitely not witches. I feel like I am losing my mind being paranoid about this. I can't stop thinking about it. I mean, I can't just say to her

'Hey I think you're a witch'... I've no idea if I'm being completely idiotic over this. I mean, I know how idiotic I sound.

Tl;dr - Bad things happen to people who do bad things to my gf. She has candles in her house. Her past is a little mysterious.

this poor, undateable man :(

I [25m] have taken a firm stance against my girlfriend [20f] on certain foods in a future apartment. If you had a deadly food allergy, would you let your partner have that food in the household?

quote:

I [21m] have severe food allergies. I'm allergic to all nuts, peanuts, fish, and shellfish. These are severe allergies, deadly. I carry around 2 epi-pens every single day whenever I leave my apartment. My girlfriend [20f] does not have any food allergies. We are in college right now and planning on living together in the not-to-distant future. We have been together for almost 2.5 years now.

In conversation, we have discussed what my food allergy means. I am okay with her eating whatever she wants outside of the apartment. I feel that I should not take that chance or run that risk of accidentally contaminating anything (pots, pans, fridge, etc.) within the apartment and therefor no foods that will kill me should be allowed in the apartment. She thinks that that request is unreasonable. I spoke to my parents and they have agreed with me and think I should not waver in my convictions. This is not a small matter, it's life or death.

I'd like others to give me their opinions since I only have my experiences to drawn upon. Am I being unreasonable?

TLDR: If you or your partner had a deadly food allergy, would you allow that food to be in the household?

It's actually finned fish that cause the most allergies. Over half of the people who are allergic to one type of fish are allergic to several others so rather than test for a bunch of different fishes, allergists tell people to avoid fish.

Me [35F] with my husband [37M] of five years, I think he resents me for lack of intimacy and did something nasty to me in bed on purpose

quote:

Jack and I have been married five years. We had our baby last year which took a huge toll on me. I have post partum depression and life is so difficult right now. I wake up in the morning and start crying and I don't know why. It's hard to bond with my baby because I want lock myself in the bedroom and never come out. When I hear her crying I feel like ripping my hair out. I don't have any thoughts of harming myself or others, just FYI. I'm seeking professional help, but just wanted to give you an idea of where I'm at.

With this depression, obviously my sex drive has gone out the window. I'm trying but its hard. Jack is definitely frustrated. He says so many sarcastic comments. Like when I say I don't want to have sex (more like I truly feel that I cant) he'll say "that's okay...I'm still satisfied from last night!". I guess this is normal though...I look at this sub a lot and it seems to be common (almost celebrated) for HL's to get out snide comments when they feel they need to. I guess its a way of coping. Anyway, one day last week I psyched myself up all day to have sex. I wasn't going to just lay there, I was going to be dirty and try new things. I decided to toss his salad, something we were very into a few years ago. I did a few tongue exercises and went to town.

He didn't seem that interested. I knew I wasn't doing a great job, but I was trying. Then I felt his abdominal kind of tense up and release and I realized what happened. He passed gas. While I was down there. With my tongue.

I screamed and started gagging. I can't describe the taste/sensation because I will start gagging again. I looked at him like "what the gently caress!!!!!?" and he didn't seem caught off guard. He kind of seemed like "oh, oops. sorry".

Now I know if that were me, I'd be so embarrassed and apologetic. Yeah he did apologize but it just wasn't like he was graveling.

It hit me immediately that he may have done it on purpose. I cook, clean, take care of our baby ... I think I do a lot especially considering getting out of bed feels like the end of the world. IDK what else he has to be angry with me about except for the lack of sex, which i know he resents me for. I feel violated. This seems like an asinine question: but has this ever happened to anyone else before? HLs (High Libidos), is it normal to feel like an act of revenge would be satisfying? I love my husband...I want to understand him...I'm trying to be understanding while he deals with his frustrations...but this was just...IDK, I feel speechless.

tl;dr: i think my husband did something nasty to me in bed because of our lack of sexual intimacy since giving birth

My (32M) wife (31F) of 6 years constantly (twice a week at least) changes out my phone case. I know this is a minor issue but it's so odd and she won't stop it. What do I do?

quote:

hello everyone, thank you for reading and taking the time to offer advice if you choose. I've been marrried to "Selene" for 6 years, no kids and I would say good marriage. We have jobs that keep us seperate (I'm a in the Navy and she's an ER doctor) but when we are together we get along really well.

There's a very odd thing that's been happening for just over 8 months, she is constantly changing out the phone case on my iPhone. I live an active life so I love my lifeproof case and have no reason to change it. However the first I noticed she put on some random cheapo, mall kiosk case. I asked her why and she said it "suited me better." I told her thank you for thinking of me but I really just liked my black lifeproof. This has slowly progressed from like a change every six weeks to I've had 8 different cases in the month of June. By far, most are ones that she's used previously but a few are brand new. Most are cheap, some are elaborate "bedazzled" models that a teenage girl would be embarrassed to be seen with. At this point I've stopped asking but when I would approach her about it she gave an answer that varied on one of three themes "it suited you better," "I wanted to make sure you remember me" and "I just liked it so I bought it for you."

I'm totally torn as to whether or not this is some innocent OCD thing that I should just tolerate or if this is some sign of an impending mental break down?
Since she won't talk to me about beyond platitudes, what do I do?

tl;dr: Wife is constantly changing out my phone case. I don't know what to do.

My living arrangement is such that he cant stay with me when he visits. So he has to book a hotel for a night or two. He didnt think it was fair for him to pay for cost of flights and accommodation so he made a "rule" that basically says who ever travels the other has to provide or pay for their accommodation.

So basically when I fly out, I stay with him (he lives with his parents) - he provides "free accommodation " for 2-3 days

when he visits, I pay 200-300 on his hotel.

Wasn't thrilled with this plan since hes still working and he has lots of savings and has a good income (vs I just started working) but he thought it was fair.

Now that he may be getting a job near by, he wants me to start paying his rent since "we have an arrangement". He thinks since hes moving "for me" that I should be paying his rent. This just made me realize how his initial arrangement really wasnt fair. Im not ever going to pay for his rent- he knows this and was probably just testing his luck. my question is more on the initial arrangement

since he wasnt paying for anything when I stayed over at his place, was it really fair for me to be paying for the entire hotel costs when ever he visited.

Plus he wanted to stay in the city and not in the suburbs when he visited which costed a lot more than getting a room in the suburbs.

Am I being unfair ? should him providing accommodation mean that I should be paying for his accommodation in return ?

tl;dr: bf wants me to pay for his rent/accomodation when he visits
