I hate to circle back around to this one but I didn't have time earlier and can't let it go:Anony Mouse posted:My [28M] girlfriend [26F] of 3.5 years wants an expensive engagement ring, we can't reach a compromise, and I'm considering breaking up with her. quote:I’m not cheap. This guy has a poo poo ton of money (or is completely misrepresenting his financial situation, which is on him). Unless his parents dream home is a loving shitshack adjacent to a nuclear waste dump you're talking about spending hundreds of thousands on his parents and drawing the line at $200 on the woman he wants to spend the rest of his life with. This guy is an rear end in a top hat. The appropriate response to "Here's the ring I really like it's $3,000" is "Holy poo poo I can't believe I got off that easy I'll pick it up on my way home tomorrow." At worst it's: "Are you really sure, it's just an indulgence and something to show off to others and couldn't we better spend that money on more house reno or vacations or video games?" "No honey I'm going to wear this the rest of my life and I'd really like a ring that I love." "Okay I'll pick it up on my way home tomorrow." It is not: "Nope, 200 buck limit unless you pay for half of it yourself." quote:She says I'm being selfish and purposely withholding my money to exercise my "financial power" over her. She's right. I don't think she's in the wrong at all here (especially given the propensity for OPs to tilt everything their own way). I mean maybe a little bit but him being an idiot has been going on for weeks so I don't really blame her. It's not like they're 19 year olds working retail and she's demanding a 3,000 dollar ring, this guy practically has gently caress you type money.

Peaceful Anarchy posted:Yeah, I agree about this guy. I thought the conversation had moved more generally to people who have no close friends since that's what Solefald was talking about. If your definition of literally no friends is strict then even this guy doesn't count. If your definition of no friends is loose enough to include this guy then I'd hesitate to say that his lack of friends is itself evidence of mental disorder, though perhaps a warning sign to delve deeper. His words and reactions on the other hand do point towards him having deeper mental issues. Yeah, I... Okay, I think there's some problem between Weird and Bad. Is wanting no close friends weird? Yes. Is it bad? Not necessarily. Even if it is indicative of a mental illness, it's not necessarily bad, because mental illnesses don't make people instantly scary potential criminals. Humans naturally want to be around others. Not wanting that is weird, but it is not necessarily bad. You have to pay attention to the details around it to tell the difference. Like this guy who might as well just be a red flag with arms and legs.

I (39/f) don’t know what to do about my husband’s (42/m) absolutely disgusting habit.quote:My husband and I have been together for 18 years, married for 15 and we have a 13 year old and a 15 year old. We have security cameras inside (and outside) our house and have for a few years. We just replaced our older ones with better ones a few weeks ago. We didn’t keep the other one on in the day time if we (me or my husband) were home so we kept that idea when got our new ones.

She should burn the footage to a DVD, get her kids out of the house and suggest romantic movie date night with the husband. Order in some nice food, light some scented candles and push the motherfucking play button.

Also file a police report claiming that he set up the recording equipment and convince all your friends and family to gaslight him.

"Discovered that husband has a habit of pooping in our living room and kitchen, in places that we eat and entertain." What's with these qualifiers?

It's interesting because you think the basic premise is absolutely maximum disgusting, but then you get to "dishwasher door" and you realize there are entirely new levels of maximum disgusting

veiled boner fuel posted:I hate to circle back around to this one but I didn't have time earlier and can't let it go: Your points are valid, and $200 is a ridiculously low amount to spend on a ring. That said, I think the issue (and he hasn't realized it yet) is that he wants to spend money on things that are personally gratifying for him: Gaming, house for parents. She values money that is spent on things that are "socially" viewed as correct. That's a hard behavior difference to resolve over the course of a marriage.

Also I think the engagement ring guy is a major turdburglar and I've noticed it's only the person who isn't going to be wearing the ring and therefore, doesn't have to look at it who ever seems to go IT'S JUST A RIIIIIIIIIIIING

I just think it’s funny how as a society we say that spending thousands of dollars on a lump of carbon is fine, but you invest that same amount of money in the frontiers of artistic expression in this digital world you’re suddenly “childish and immature”

Hahahaha This dude is so convinced some WHORE gave him an STD because he had an achy ball. He was told he was fine but noooooooooo those sneaky whorish bacteria are in there, destroying his manpower. The solution to this is, of course, dunking his nuts in a series of variably heated water baths.

An Alienware alone is 3K+, and there's no way a heavy gamer would resist putting in the latest NVIDIA cards. Those can get mighty pricey quickly. Maybe he modified an older rig?

He is very intelligent and kind person, he always supported me and we always were the best friends. I would describe our father-daughter relationship as perfect. My relationship with my mother is also great. We are very strong family and love each other.
