Edit: Sniping again! Here's a nice mild one. My (17M) girlfriend (18F) was ready to have sex but I wasn’t quote:Long story short my girlfriend and I were hanging out the other night and things started to escalate and it was clear she wanted to take things to the next step. I wasn’t sure I was ready, so I didn’t take it further (she was kind of waiting for me to make the move). I am very comfortable with her, but am just not sure if I’m ready. Unable to find a time to tell her this in person, I later (taking the easy way out) texted explaining this to her and she understood completely. I thought everything was okay, but the texts I woke up to the following morning were concerning. I agree with some of the respondents that he should just talk to her instead of texting.

The lady can support her mother and two siblings on 5%-10% of her salary, why the gently caress should they go to a charity for support? Maybe leave the charity for all the folks who don't have immediate family members who can support them for the same amount their manchild spouse spends on his "hobbies."

Men are usually other men's worst enemy when it comes to things like abuse and mistreatment Perhaps my experiences in this matter aren't typical, but almost every instance of this sort of thing I've gotten has been from a woman. Maybe it's a location/cultural thing? I'm Southern U.S., and my family is matriarchal Italian.

I [30M] feel bad about not wanting my mother [60F] t come on holiday with my wife and I. Should I?quote:My wife and I are planning a month long trip overseas in the next few months. My mother, who I have had an up and down relationship with over the years, wants to tag along for some portion of the trip. We haven't had too serious of beef, we just dont get along and tend to argue and fight. I dont really want her to come along because we would prefer to enjoy our trip together with just my wife and I. Also we are worried that some disagreement or argument could come up during the trip, or that we will just generally have our guard up and not be as relaxed as we want while on vacation.

Me [25f] with my husband [29m] of 1 year (total 6). He pulled a pretty stupid prank for our 1 year anniversary, am I making too big a deal of this or am I allowed to have expectations on how special days are supposed to go? Lots of back story to this one but I don't want to bore anyone so I'll keep it brief. One of the longest running jokes based on a real life scenario is from when my dad showed up to he and my mom's first date with filthy from work, with a bucket of KFC chicken and a packet of just bought trojan condoms fell out of his glove box as he drove his old ratty truck to the bench by the lake where he expected to get lucky. My parents have now been married going on 30 years so obviously it worked out and my dad loves the story, my mom pretends to be embarrassed by it but she really loves it too. So anyways the story gets brought up every time all four of our us sisters are together and everyone has a great laugh from it. But to a person, my sisters and I have always specified to our SOs to never, ever do anything like that, even as a joke. Well our first anniversary was Friday and guess what happened. Yup, he put on some dirty clothes had been working in, grabbed bucket of KFC but obviously knew he wasn't getting me in his car so he had the box of condoms propped on the top of the chicken. He really thought he was being funny but I was really angry. First of all, this wasn't a prank that led to some big reveal...he expected that to be our full annivsary. Secondly, I've told him so many times that my dads chicken story is funny for our family, but don't repeat it...even as a joke. he did that, on our anniversary of all things. he's trying to make it up to me tonight by taking me to dinner and shopping but it just feels so forced now. I'm trying to be nice to him but I'm still very disappointed in what he did. Am I making too big of deal of this? Or am I allowed to have reasonable expectations to not get pranked on special days, especially pranks I've asked him to never do? tl;dr: My husband pulled out a very embarrassing family joke/prank for our first anniversary. I'm very upset but am I overreacting or do I have a reasonable expectation that special days won't be turned into jokes?

That's not a prank, it's just lovely modern 'humour'. "Heh, I am referencing a thing, do you recognise thing? Laugh now". Would have been fine a) if it actually was just the prelude to an actual date night and b) she hadn't explicitly told him in advance that she wouldn't find it funny.

MarcusSA posted:Is Ni-Fi some like new fangled WiFi? quote:Yes, it's called an Ni/Fi loop. The two introverted functions gang up and edge out your auxiliary extroversion. Since both are giving subjective perceptions (Ni) and judgments (Fi), you lose touch with reality. All objectivity is lost. In order to reengage, you have to externalize your ideas (via Te), by putting them into words, talking them out, using logic, etc. Using Te actually helps Fi to function properly. They work as a pair (as do Ni/Se, Ne/Si, and Fe/Ti).

Having given this some thought it actually isn't a terrible idea to mount the Axes. It would probably be the only interesting thing on the wall besides the numerous pictures from Homegoods or wall quotes. At least you could say something about it. Hell he could put them in his "man cave" lol what am I thinking she deffo didn't let him have anything of the sort. He probably couldn't even put them up in the garage haha.

I (25F) got drunk and threw up at a work event and barely remember what happened. What do I do?quote:I never thought i would be that person. I was at a work event for my company that is held at a baseball game. They gave out free wine and beer for the first two hours and I had 4 (6 ounces) glasses of wine and a beer. I was there with my fiance, his father, and my best friend. I don't remember what happened except some small memories of me throwing up, talking to my parents on the phone, and talking to my fiance and friend. My friend managed to get me a bag to throw up in but apparently I might have throw up on a family that was close to us. I can't remember much but at the end of the night when the game was over, the EMT had to be called and I had to wheel chaired out cause I couldn't walk and was having an anxiety attack. The EMT let me know that I should just go home instead of going to hospital to just sit there. I would say it felt like i was going in and out of consciousness.
