For 'MERICA! guy, Move to Canada, get permanent residency from your wife, dump her. US is a piss poo poo country. You only love it because of propaganda forced on you since you were a child. I was the same way until I split. For dude with engaged sister, I'd honestly be super pissed that my wife was salty about a breakup from a decade ago. If you ain't over that dude, don't be married to me. If you are over that dude, then what's the loving problem? In fact I'd even suggest dude go there with the wife. Blow this marriage up.

From what I've heard, there are still racists there, but Canadians are less racist on aggregate than Americans except in the case of racism against Native Americans in which case they are the same or worse But I have no firsthand experience with this and will gladly accept "nah it's just as bad all over" as an alternate narrative from someone who knows better

Milotic posted:I [24F] am in an arranged marriage, and want to get closer to my husband [26M] That's really really sad. The Lone Badger posted:Open the relationship. I don't get why he wouldn't do this? Like, even if he doesn't want her to divorce him by learning the truth, make up some reason you can't have sex (childhood trauma or something maybe, so you can avoid having to discuss it ever) and tell her to go find someone to gently caress at least. Milotic posted:There’s some good ones this morning So from the sounds of it, it was a horrible traumatic relationship of a year that she.. never mentioned before? like quote:Turns out the guy and my wife used to date in university. She said they were together for about 1 year before he met someone else, strung her along for a while, and then dumped her very unceremoniously in front of her friends. She was crying because she was so upset. makes it sound like he heard it the first time right then, doesn't it? I could see a few situations where I would be upset by someone close to me marrying an ex, but that's because he was literally abusive, and murdered a man. I would be scared for her. And my current fiance is well aware of the guy existing and the relationship. Because how are you together 7 years and have been in a relationship that traumatic that it still affects you that badly 7 years later and you never tell your partner at all? When the only trauma from it is "He cheated on me before dumping me"?

I had an ex that I had an extremely acrimonious breakup with in college, who I avoided for several years despite our numerous continued mutual friends, but then about six months ago my wife included her in a group of people she invited to hang out at our place after an event (after clearing it with me ofc) and it was actually fine and we had a nice evening, so in closing she should just suck it up and go to the wedding Living well is the best revenge, specifically not being mad about a breakup after several years

Never let go of that hate. Let it consume you. Never forgive. Never forget.

My (32/F) boyfriend (32/M) doesn't respect things that are important to me.quote:I have been with my boyfriend, Dan, for almost 9 months. Our relationship, to be honest, has been quite a bit bumpy. I have known Dan since we were in middle school. We were good friends throughout middle school, friends in high school and only stayed in touch after high school through facebook occasionally, until we got reconnected about a year ago. Started dating on Halloween. For some back story, both of my parents have passed away. I am an only child and I am not very close to my extended family at all. My best friend, Emily and her husband Jake live about 4.5 hours away. Emily is basically the sister I never had. She got pregnant a year ago. I was so, so happy for her. I can't have kids myself, so to be an Aunt is one of the joys of my life. I was at the hospital when she was born and I was one of the first people to hold her. I love this child like she is my own. Unfortunately, since they live so far away, I am unable to see Emily or baby very much. Since Emily became a Mom, we haven't been able to chat or facetime nearly as much as we used to, which I completely understand. Dealing with a relationship with this woman sounds exhausting.

I dated someone like her who was a walking list of Things She Will Overreact To and, like Dan, enjoyed doing a lot of things that didn't include her and never put together that I didn't like being with her. She ended up "dumping" me as some kind of power move and it was a huge relief - I had the best two weeks of my life between when she dumped me and when she sent me this novel on Facebook asking why I hadn't come begging. Dan's probably got some low self esteem going on. I hope Dan learns from this relationship that you aren't obligated to date someone just because she's interested.

Rubellavator posted:Is she incapable of doing anything by herself? Like holy poo poo, let him do his dinner and go see your friend. She doesn't seem aware that these people who live hours away being important to her doesn't mean they're important to Dan. Everything that is important to Dan she sees as something bad that she has to tolerate. Dan has the more healthy view, in relative terms anyway, of just not caring about things that are important to her. Also, childless people who obsess over being aunts are obnoxious. If you haven't done 3am feedings or dealt with a poo poo blowout, you haven't earned that Facebook cover photo.

If the goal is to be a stay at home husband and the wife has some really hard career that's only option for advancement is in Canada, just go. More communication would have been nice, but some careers just send you around as if you were in the military. Like I know some people in really high level science and they're constantly having to move around. Both of them are fancy scientists but it's generally impossible for them to both get jobs in the same country so they just sort of alternate or go with who ever has the highest paying job offer while the other does some part time work-from-home stuff or maybe gets a teaching gig or something. Dude sounds weirdly attached to his country, like Canada's basically just another state man, you'll be fine, you don't even have to learn a new language. Would he be freaking out so much if they lived in California and she got a job offer in Oregon? He's not leaving a career behind, he's going to be a kept man from the sounds of it. All his resistance seems to come down to a weird feeling of nationalism rather than anything concrete like moving away from friends/family/hobbies.

If they were desperate for cash and she had trouble getting any job offers at all it'd be a different story but it's bizarre to think you get to decide that unilaterally. I guess I personally value my partner at least pretending to give a poo poo how I feel about things. Also "I'm moving to canada" is some funny bougie liberal poo poo and I'm glad she will implode her marriage over it.

Jeffrey of YOSPOS posted:I don't see why her getting a job offer means she gets 100% of the say in where they live. Is her field one that can only be done in this part of canada? Just because some employers see fit to move their employees around like chess pieces doesn't mean you should agree to those terms and work for them. The place you live affects the person not working more than the person working anyway - it's more hours a week with nothing to do but, well, live in the place. He doesn't say where he lives now, but I know I'd prefer to live where I am than anywhere in canada. Yeah I have no idea her career situation. If she's like an astronomer or mathematician or something then you absolutely do move to the country your next job is in because that's very likely the one and only opportunity you're going to get, and if you don't keep employed you quickly become unemployable and your career is ruined. If the only observatory hiring is in Hawaii you move to Hawaii, if a university in New Zealand is the only place offering you a research position for 4 years, you're buying tickets to NZ or giving up on your career. Or maybe she's just a programmer or actuary or something, applied to a random job in Canada and now is demanding they go even though she could easily get similar jobs locally. I'm giving her a massive benefit of the doubt assuming it's more the former situation than the later.

School turned around and started trying to guilt me into donating money a month after I graduated (and constantly while I was there) on top of hiking up tuition every year because gawrsh the school of your favorite football team is just so poor and in need of money. There is just not enough money to hire enough professors so all the students in your department can actually take their mandatory classes on time! What do you mean the football coach makes millions and get raises regularly KU did something similar, but it turns out that all the basketball stuff is owned by a private corporation, including the stadium and parking, so none of the basketball money can go back to the school.
