The brothers a hospital doctor with his own family, he should be happy to have seen him once in the last decade.

Still it was a dick move for him to not bust into his brother's room the two times he was hospitalized and make a big scene shouting stuff like, "Who's the clown running this operation I demand the best for my brother!" That's the entire point of having doctor relatives.

Yeah but I don't think she'd be pissed off if the content was innocuous and the interaction was wanted.

OP repeatedly says "her personality is just flirty" and people say/do really dumb poo poo when they're drunk

We don't know what she was texting to him but I'm not making favorable assumptions based on what she's posted in the original thread

Our [14F&11M] parents bought this massive plot of land that use to be a summer camp. Our parents are planning to do massive overhauls to it, but we want to live in a cabin each.

quote:

Forgive me if this is strange in the way it's structured. We've both had zero sleep because of all the travel. My brother and I just moved to America from England. It's like 1:30 am here, and we're going to go to bed soon. Our parents bought this massive plot of land that use to house a summer camp. We walked around it today, and it's still a camp. There's the dining room that they called the mess hall, the cabins, fire pit area, a zipline, the lake . We have a normal family. My brother and I get on great, and are fine with our mum and dad. They want to do massive renovations/remove all the unwanted stuff which includes cabins. We want a cabin to ourselves. One for me and one for my brother.

tl;dr: My brother and I would like a cabin to ourselves to stay in as our rooms. Although we're not sure how to make our Mum and Dad ok with it.

Look, I fuckin hate this lady, and even if I presume every known fact against her I still think the Real Housewife of /r/Relationships is in the wrong here.

If some girl is being inappropriate with your husband, you tell your husband, and maybe you tell her off as well. But not in a screaming fit in front of everyone. Thats just another way of saying, "I'm the crazy one."

Depending on the age of the baby (I'm guessing only a few months), she's probably still all hormonal aside from sleep-deprived, and had to just calm down her baby after that ding-dong woke him up.

Like, my dad said that not too long after my older brother was born, my mom's parents came to visit. Next thing he knew, my mother, who rarely raised her voice and practically never cursed, was screaming at the top of her lungs and telling her mother to get the gently caress out of their house etc. Apparently her hormones )and likely some comment from her mother she didn't like) pretty much turned her into the Hulk.

I stayed at a "motel" based on this exact premise and the cabins were actually big enough to make really sweet little studio apts out of. American children require a ton of space apparently.

those cabins were almost certainly not sleeping only 1-2 kids originally, you can pack a lot in with bunk beds

as far as the English kids go it definitely seems like it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world to let them play house with two of the more structurally sound cabins- which also might be fun and characterful guest houses/art studios/storage sheds down the line, though based on the circumstances I doubt that their parents would see it that way

My [39F] boyfriend [41M] seems to enjoy searching for messages insulting or defaming him

u/Throwaway_WorriedGF posted:

Throwaway because I don't know if he uses Reddit.

My boyfriend and I have been dating for a couple months now. He has a somewhat high profile job in a popular industry. Several times when I've been at his house I've noticed on his computer that he has a page open on a forum with a bunch of messages from people talking about how much they hate him, saying he's killed women, etc. which makes no sense because he's a great, loving man who would never hurt a soul. Whenever I glance at his computer screen it looks like he's always got this forum open. What's stranger still is that one of my investigations showed that he was searching for his name to find these messages.

Is this normal? Should I say anything? He's really a very nice man and I don't think it's good for him to be looking at these kinds of messages constantly.

TL;DR; : Boyfriend is always looking at rude, vulgar messages about himself. What should I do?.

Research has shown that even people who identify as introverts are happier when they are acting extroverted, it is just a fact that an introvert is not a natural state for a human being. It means someone needs assistance from the outside to help them blossom into their true self, their functional self.

I was never able to give you your jalapeño plant. I still tend it all summer, and it gave several jalapeños. I ended up putting them in the compost, and I don't know if I will plant a jalapeño for you next year. I think it's important to move on. Also I don't like jalapeños, so when I see them, I can only ever really think of you.

Heat is not the only thing that makes a good pepper. Jalapeños are a good all around peppers dammit. Yes, you should have more than just those if you like heat, but most of the ghost/other high scoville unit peppers of late are all heat and no taste at all.

a single jalapeno diced up in chicken tikka masala really throws it over the top

it's incredible how much mileage you get out of a single decent sized jalapeno, and they're so so so cheap, we can get them 10 for a dollar out here

Hey, remember the saga of the guy that got ash on the bed and ruined the mattress trying to clean it then just ubered the gently caress out of there?

:siren:We have an update!!!!! :siren:

[UPDATE] Fiance[24M] went to great lengths to hide spilled ash at my parent's house. In the process, he ruined a mattress and got an Uber without telling anyone

quote:

Well. Some of you guys called it. My fiance finally came over to discuss what happened. He broke down and told me that he got diarrhea all over the bed and was trying to remove it from the mattress. He'd taken a bunch of laxatives earlier and was experiencing stomach pains so he decided to smoke. Then he was apparently so high that he didn't realize he was making GBS threads until he sat up.

This made sense for awhile until I remembered the marijuana he left at the foot of the bed. He started getting agitated when I asked about that and claimed it wasn't his. I honestly don't know why he'd choose to lie about that because they were obviously his. He accused it of belonging to my 9-year-old brother.

Before this, I wasn't so much mad as I was confused and embarrassed. It made me mad that he would accuse my little brother of that. He was out of the woods, my parents had forgiven him, I'd forgiven him now that I understood better...just so stupid.

Anyway, he got extremely agitated and we had a big fight. He got physical with me which he's never done before because I opened the place where he keeps his stash. There wasn't just weed in there.

It's been a really hard day. My eyes hurt from crying. Relationship and wedding are over. I called his parents to tell them so that they could try to get him help. After he attacked me I don't want to be the one to do that but I hope he gets the help he needs from his family.

tl;dr: He didn't spilled abv, he poo poo the bed

The first half is true. Humans are wired for social contact and even introverts enjoy and benefit from socialization, they just get tired of it more quickly. If you genuinely can't stand to interact with people that's not introversion, that's a deeper issue.
