I sleep with a 27-year-old stuffed bunny for much the same reason; my husband is super comfy but moves a lot in his sleep and is basically a space heater, so Bunny gets the cuddles (and helps my bad elbow keep from getting slept on)

Yeah, I've tried cuddling my fiancee to sleep but

A) She's really hot (appearance and body temp) and I need to be cool to sleep, so I overheat easily when she's too close.

B) I can never figure out what to do with the arm that's not over the top.

I also don't find it really comfortable to sleep without something supporting my arms, so I don't necessarily need a stuffed animal but I at least need a pillow.

Age gap relationships come through yet again, and as usual, the older partner is a manchild stuck in a permanent state of arrested development. How do you get to age 30 and still think it's funny to do this poo poo? You'd think it would have cost him a few jobs by now if it was such an intrinsic part of his personality.

My (34f) husband (37m) of 9 years planned my dream vacation to the French Riveria without getting my input. He did it right but I'm furious with him because I wanted to be part of the process. Am I being unreasonable?

quote:

quick background: my husband and I are involved in my families' business. We own a fill dirt company which for the most part is pretty low stress but in the last three years my dad has started working "retirement hours," there's a huge interstate project we have the contract for and we've had labor issues with one employee sexually assaulting another. We had planned on having kids but circumstances being what they are, the last three years have been a blur and both my husband and I have been on the edge of insanity.

I need to say here it's been my dream to spend like a month on the French Riveria since I was little. Something about it seems so romantic and relaxing and when I get sad or stresses I'll just sit in my office and look at Instagram hashtags from Cannes, Nice, Monaco, etc... And dream about getting away.

Well in the past few months things have settled as we are nearing a settlement with the employee who was assaulted, we've both testified in the criminal trial, the interstate project is still busy but going smooth and out of the blue my dad started working full time. Out of the blue my husband sprung it on me that we are taking six weeks off and going to spend the entire time in France/northern Italy.

Of course I was excited so I looked through the itinerary and he obviously worked hard and somehow even paid enough attention and booked the exact hotels I've dreamed about staying in. He has the time in the various towns perfect, so far he's booked amazing day trips and excursions. With minor variations, it's exactly what I would have booked.

But I'm livid with him. I wanted to plan this, I wanted to have the excitement of making the calls and the anticipation of getting it right and making adjustments and being just part of it. I mean I figure this is a once in a lifetime thing I wanted to get the full experience which means planning as well.

I probably said some wrong things because I called him an insensitive rear end for surprising me and not letting me be a part of it. He asked if I was serious, I said yes that I've never been so mad at him (partly true). He's now mad at me for not appreciating his effort. I'm mad at him for being mad and not seeing my side of things and now my dream vacation is off on the wrong foot completely and we aren't speaking to each other.

I know he tried hard but it doesn't change the fact that he screwed up, however am I being unreasonable here?

tl;dr: Husband planned my dream vacation without me. I'm so angry wifh him, am I being unreasonable?

there are so many mechanical advantages to marriage that it doesn't make sense to not get married if you've been dating long term and your relationship is strong enough to rationalize the commitment

This is probably the most sympathetic comment

quote:

I mean, I, as someone who likes the planning process, understand your point, but yes, you're acting like an ungrateful jackass.

First, in a way, you did do the planning, since your husband apparently built the trip around the things you've told him you wanted to do. And, there's still plenty for you to plan: you can plan your wardrobe, your dream shopping list, the foods and wines you want to try, the individual places in each city to see, french phrases to learn, french movies to watch, etc. The trip is still just a basic outline that needs to be filled in.

Frankly, if I was him, I'd be tempted to cash in your ticket and go alone.

The mom in the dead husband story is really a loving hypocrite. You can't take your younger daughter's privileges away and then blame your older daughter for breaking up the very thing you're punishing. The whole "you're tearing this family apart" but is particularly awful. gently caress both of them (but not literally)

Going to go against the grain here and say that your feelings are valid, and that you do have a point.

I would say if you want, try to find ways to provide more of your own input on the trip to fill any gaps in the plan and put your stamp on things.

God I loved that story. The fact that it ends with "Well I was tired anyway so I went to sleep" is amazing

But I definitely don't see the 17 year old as being resentful or anything of her older sister staying at home. I just think she wanted to in the moment say something hurtful and this was the most hurtful thing she can think of

My strategy is to get that arm under my pillow and then lay on it tucked between my shoulder and neck, hoping the pillow will keep my arm from getting stiff. And then in the morning being unable to move it for the first like fifteen minutes after waking up

Alternately, tucking it in against her back but I've never once been able to get comfortable enough to fall asleep that way

He's trolling to get people to respond, then he gets to "win".

Just don't address him directly and don't look him in the eyes.

EDIT: Lol. For instance.

It's either "Don't take it personally" or "Okay then forever trash your relationship with your sister over it. She's a garbage irredeemable human being and OP would be better off without her in her life." He literally sees (or pretends to see) everything in black and white. There's no way his posts aren't deliberately worded to provoke.

I'm getting the impression maybe he didn't mention his fiancé because he was (mostly harmlessly) enjoying the attention, and then realised it went a bit too far with the number before and now his girl found out and now he's back peddling and Ahh Ahh better rewrite the undertones in this story so she doesn't kick my rear end.

I [f/24] confronted my boyfriend [m/28] about his lovely best friend's [m/29] comments and he just undermined my feelings.

quote:

Throwaway as I don't want anyone in my personal life seeing this.

My boyfriend's best friend is a pretty crappy human being, or at least to me his. My boyfriend, his family and friends all think he's hilarious and a great person, but that's because they don't have to put up with the comments that I do. I guess he's smart enough to not make such stupid comments in front of some people.

Also, I've been with my boyfriend for 19 months.

A couple of months ago he made a comment about how he would have sex with women (non consensual) if there were no laws and therefore could get away with it.

Additionally, every single time we're together, he'll bring up women from their past, or someone he finds attractive and will ask my boyfriend if he would "gently caress her". RIGHT IN MY PRESENCE. My boyfriend just remains silent which pisses me off.

After this happened 484838 times, I finally got sick of it and confronted him about it, to which he undermined how I felt about it and told me he's only kidding and doesn't mean it. He actually got annoyed at me because how dare I insult his friend. I get it, they've been friends for over a decade, but such comments are making a mockery of me.

I used to not have a problem with the guy, but I find his behaviour disgusting. We were watching some fail videos, and he saw a woman in fishnet tights and made a remark about how "going out being dressed like that - she's just asking for it".

My boyfriend and i got into an argument because he was saying my attitude and my behaviour when I'm with his friend recently has been terrible (I'll roll my eyes at comments his friend makes and stay silent when he talks). I told him his friend is a lovely person and I can't stand for his comments or him. He replied with "So what he's my best friend" and I said "yeah and I'm your girlfriend" he followed this by saying "so?".

Anyways today, we tried to talk it out, he said next time he makes a comment like that he'll say something. I was still fuming and reminded him of the time he said "so" to me being his girlfriend and told him to get his priorities straight.

It just feels like he's completely disregarding my feelings. It makes me feel as if I'm overreacting but at the same time I absolutely cannot stand even being in his friend's presence. He told me that if I have a problem with him, I must have a problem with all of his friends because they're all like that. So is he trying to tell me all of his friends are crappy human beings? The guy is a drat alcoholic who drinks 24/7 and somehow thinks these comments are alright. He's 29, and acts likes he's a prepubescent boy.

Am I overreacting to this? Is it completely normal to just 100% defend your friend's lovely behaviour and seemingly always taking his side on things.

TLDR; boyfriend's best friend constantly makes lovely comments like asking my boyfriend if he would gently caress _enter name here, makes jokes about how some women deserve to be assaulted based on the clothes they wear and how he would do it if it was allowed. Boyfriend says he's only joking and doesn't say yes/no or anything to these comments.

"My partner has toxic friends that they won't stop seeing" is a sadly common tale on r/relationships.

I have a feeling this guy has done other crap that is much worse but turned to reddit this time because he doesn't look that awful

I [28M] lost the baby's [8 months] warm clothes when I was out. I had to go to my wife [29F] work for help and she's pissed at me because he was "as cold as ice". She told me to stay at my brothers place.

quote:

I just got to my brothers place and he's not here. I let myself in like he told me to do.

I hosed up today. It is a very cold day in Melbourne. I took him out today to a place called Melbourne Central. While I was in the food court I started to look for something I thought was in his pram. I took his blanket out because I thought it was under there. Long story short, I forgot his little bad of clothes and his blanket on the table. I went back to get it when I realized and it was gone. My wife works at this law firm in the city. I had to go down to her office. She came down to the lobby with a blanket from her car for him. She was pissed at me. She was saying look how upset he was. He stopped making moaning sounds when he had his blanket back.

She told me then she can't stand the sight of me because our son was as cold as ice. Told me she's had enough of this. Then told me to go stay with my brother and don't come home.

I believe this may be the very moment this lady lost respect for him in reddit post form

I have a feeling this guy has done other crap that is much worse but turned to reddit this time because he doesn't look that awful

I [28M] lost the baby's [8 months] warm clothes when I was out. I had to go to my wife [29F] work for help and she's pissed at me because he was "as cold as ice". She told me to stay at my brothers place.

So he walked an uncovered, 8 month old baby, through the "very cold" weather, all the way to his wife's office? Like, he couldn't find a more ready solution like the jacket he was wearing, or any single article of clothing at a shop nearby that he could purchase, or some loving paper towels or the dead body of a homeless person?

What a dipshit.

Edit: I'm getting loving angry at that dude.

Reddit comments!!

Reddit: She told you she's had enough of this... How many times has something like this happened?

OP: I've hosed up before with him.

quote:

Reddit: Just wondering, why didn't you just buy him some new clothes? I'm not familiar with your location but it sounds like you were in a shopping centre? Or just... go home and get him different clothes? I'm confused about why you had to go to your wife's workplace.

OP: There was no baby store near by that I new off, and my wife's work was 10 minute walk away as apposed to a 20 minute drive home.

Reddit: Bullshit. Melbourne Central (a giant shopping centre) is adjacent to Emporium and QV (two other shopping centres). There are a number of options in all 3 to purchase baby clothes. I'm a mid twenties childless woman and I know this. You did not even remotely try to solve this yourself.

This guy seriously loving sucks and even dumping all details couldn't hide that fact

Owlbear Camus: Jan 3, 2013; Maybe this guy that flies is just sort of passing through, you know?

Yeah, even if there really were no option to replace the blanket or he were dead broke or w/e how do you not take off your own coat or do something other than freeze a tiny helpless human. Holy heck.

What even advice is he possibly looking for? Some magic words that will evaporate his wife's well-justified anger?
