I doubt loan dad can just sign the loans over to his children, at least from my experience in lending. The initial approval was based on his income and credit at the time, a lender is not likely to let someone else just walk into the contract with a completely different credit profile.

Not from /r/relationships or /r/legaladvice, but it's in the same spirit. When I lived in California, I listened to a lot of talk radio and one show was a lawyer who took calls for legal advice (this was about 2009). I was going through some old backups and remembered I had this clip of a lady that called in. I saved the clip from their weekly archive and it's survived in a backup folder all these years. If it was a /r/legaladvice thread, it would probably be something like:

My [36M] SO [28F] makes significantly less than me and is butthurt that I expect her to pay for a large chunk of her own expenses now that she has a steady job
Posted byu/LLJKSiLk

quote:

We've been dating for around 7.5 years. During one part of our relationship, she had her own job/apartment/vehicle. She lost her job/apartment and wanted to move in with me. For about 3-4 years I covered 100% of her living expenses (gas, clothes, home/utilities/etc.). Last year her car broke down, and I purchased another vehicle ($5,000 down payment, $300/month) for her to use. Again, I paid for 100% of this. Her "rent" has basically been cooking/laundry/house cleaning which is an arrangement I was fine with, so I'm not complaining about that necessarily.

She wanted to finish her associate's degree and lacked two semesters. I came out of pocket $3,000 to pay for her tuition/books since she did not qualify for grant money so that she could finish. Halfway through her last semester, she got a part-time job making $500-ish per month. I told her that since she had a job, I expected her to pick up the slack on expenses that were solely related to her. (Car payment, car insurance, cell phone, or roughly most of her check). I also agreed to put $80 per month in savings for her.

Note: This doesn't even include all her expenses. Food, gas, and other stuff I pay for. I pay for a gym membership so she can swim, I pay for any special events, and I've even paid for her mom's/sister's birthday presents. Basically, her expenses are more than she's getting paid, and I only expect her to pay about 80% of what her actual expenses are (at most).

Despite the car being in my name, I told her that once it is paid off, she can just pay me an additional 6 months of what the payment is and I'll sign it over to her. I'll still have paid for over 30% of the vehicle with my money, but she can own it free and clear. Her argument is that she shouldn't have to pay anything on it until it is in her name because it is "my" car.

She also says she'd rather not have car insurance (illegal) and doesn't want to pay that. She says she'd "rather get an Obamaphone" than to have to pay for her cell phone bill ($50ish per month, I paid for the phone).

Am I the rear end in a top hat here? I feel like I'm being more than reasonable and have set up a pretty fair situation, seeing as how I pay for everything (100% of food, 100% of her needs as far as clothing, gas, etc.) and only expect her to pay a handful of bills that only exist because she wanted/needed the things.

She says poo poo like "Why should I even work if I don't get to keep all my money?" and has a disconnect of what expenses actually go into keeping her life running smoothly. I don't even try to lord anything over her and have been more than generous when it comes to gifts, etc.

When she gets paid, I give her a detailed list via email of where every single penny is going. I'm not being opaque about anything and we agreed to all of this up front, she's just not happy that she doesn't get to keep more than $80 per month (even though she benefits from hundreds of extra dollars I spend on her per month that is not covered by her own pay).

I understand I make a great deal more than her, but I've always believed in paying your own way.

So... advice is welcome.

I agree, but I think that door is still open. There's definitely some back history with OP's ex and previous problems. What's going on with the kid now can't be divorced from that past, and it might not factor into how to deal with him the most effectively, but some parts of his behavior might not be addressable with the info given (in the new Reddit thread).

I think you're kinda missing their point here. Yeah people are emotional. Venting to your friends about your relationship is a minefield at best let alone when they're at the same goddamn party. And sex is an incredibly touchy subject. But isn't it kind of hosed up that it's such a touchy subject that an isolated, offhand (albeit insensitive and thoughtless) comment can so utterly annihilate someone's self esteem, despite all their other positive personal traits, and most people just nod and say "well yes of course that is a reasonable reaction"?

Yeah I can totally understand being very hurt and upset, but your relationship completely falling apart just seems... extreme and unhealthy. I'm not even assigning blame to the guy in this specific scenario, the whole point is that society has instilled these hosed up values in him and all the rest of us and I don't like it.

I don't think that the reaction is entirely due to the topic being sexual. The point was that she was poo poo-talking him to her friends and identifying him as second fiddle. "My rebound boyfriend is such a loving idiot and can never emotionally satisfy me, not like my ex, the brilliant doctor-poet" would be as emotionally damaging as what was actually said. No one wants to find out that they're the backup plan, that their SO would rather be with someone else

He thought that he was hot poo poo in a champagne glass, but he overheard her saying hat he's cold diarrhea in a dixie cup. Of course that's going to ruin his confidence and make him question their relationship.

I've been with my fiance about 3.5 years. I'm in school and disabled, so I don't bring in much money. He works full time and pays pretty much all the bills. The only bills we treat as "his" and "mine" are for our phones. We treat all money as "our" money regardless of where it comes from (we have separate money for incidentals, things we're saving for, etc..). And while I can see being frustrated if you are supporting someone 100% and don't want to, to still have a mentality of "paying out of pocket" for your SO's college after 7.5 years to seems really cold.

And that's before even taking in anything we know about this situation.

The title says it all, but long story short this lady caught her husband smoking a jay and demanded that he sign over the house to her and go into rehab. She works at a law firm and called a lawyer working the radio to ask him what documents she needs to make him sign to forfeit his rights to 50% of the house. She proudly talks about how she's hanging this over him like a Sword of Damocles, where if he doesn't do it she'll tell his bosses that he smoked a weed once, and get him fired.

The lawyer is completely baffled. He spends seven minutes going to bat for this psychopath's poor husband and I don't care if this happened a decade ago, I feel so bad for this miserable fucker

I said “I love you” he said “Right back at ya” what now?
Long time listener, first time caller.

I [28M] have been in a great relationship with my boyfriend [29M] for the last eight months. We‘re at the point that we talk every day, know each other’s friends and families, Saturday nights together are assumed, and we both have clothes and a toothbrush at the others place. All the trappings of a serious relationship.

Yesterday we were finishing a dinner date with a walk on the water, hand holding, beautiful view, and I let an “I love you” slip out, organically without thinking. First time it has been said between us.

There was a brief pause followed by “Right back at ya.”

I feel really uncomfortable about it because I don’t know where to go from here. I’ve only said the first “I love you” in a relationship once, and it was requited without issue. I don’t know whether to just let it go and not bring it up or say it again or if we should talk about it.

Thanks all in advance.

Girlfriend (22F) told me (25M) about past bondage arrangements and I don't know how to process it.

So I've been dating a woman for about 3-4 months, and today she told me that she gets monthly payments from a guy who meets with her 1 time every month to tie her up and uses a vibrator on her.

She told me she has still getting payments from him for the past few months we have been dating. She also told me she hasn't been meeting up with him while we've been dating even though she has been getting the payments.

For some context, she is in school and has been doing it for the extra money.

I am a laid back non religious new age type guy. I dont judge her morally or anything for doing this type of arrangement. I understand that bondage arrangements can be legitimate and arent some crazy evil thing.

However, I am emotionally very upset even though the rational side of my brain tells me this isn't a big deal. She said she will cut off this arrangement and is graduating with a good degree soon and won't need the money.

Is it valid for me to want to ask more questions about the specifics that happened? I feel like it will help me process it better if I know what more specifics about what happened.

I should also mention that rope bondage happens to be my biggest fetish. So the fact that she has been doing this with another person for over a year and getting paid for it triggers all sorts of conflicting emotions. It turns me on that she would do this, but it also scares me because she put herself in a very vulnerable position for arguably not a lot of money. (the amount of money is basically an above average car payment...)

Does anybody have advice for working through a situation like this? Is it un fair of me to have feelings about it? Should I deal with my feelings by myself and not ask her any more questions?

tldr: The woman I've been dating for about 3 months told me about how she gets paid monthly by somebody who ties her up. She stopped meeting him after we started dating but I am still emotionally shaken and need advice on how to deal with hearing this from somebody you care about.

edit: When she told me this morning I told her that it is a big fetish of mine. She told me she is interested in exploring it with me if I want to.
