Whoa, holy poo poo. Honestly didn't see that ending coming, especially the husband knowing what was going on.

AITA for telling my girlfriend that I’ll leave if she gets a face tattoo?
u/Jedimyth

quote:

So basically my girlfriend has hit a spot in her 20’s where she’s being a bit spontaneous, her group of friends have been encouraging her to try new things and recently, tattoos were brought up. They were all going to get a face tattoo, and that’s dealbreaker for me because it doesn’t make sense. She’s going to college right now to become a teacher, what school would hire someone with a face tattoo? What company would hire her? The stigma against tattoos is declining, but I believe face tattoos will always be considered one of those tattoos you never get because..it’s trashy. She says I’m overreacting, I really don’t think I am.

I’m not telling her she can’t get it, I’m just saying I won’t be around afterwards. My choice to leave, and it’s her body and it’s her choice to get it. AITA?

TLDR; girlfriend wants a face tattoo, it’s a dealbreaker for me if she gets it because it will screw up her future to become a teacher.

u/JeffreyMS

quote:

My 20-year-old daughter and I got into an all-out screaming match about using a period at the end of a sentence in text messages. She says it makes me sound hostile. I've been on the Internet since around 1992. I understand and use emoticons, abbreviations, /s, etc... However, I usually use complete sentences, proper grammar, and accurate punctuation. Doing otherwise looks incomplete to me. FYI, I'm a Gen-Xer.

She's gonna have to start dealing drugs, learn to rap/act/play an instrument, or become a tattoo artist herself, because she's certainly not going to be getting a job as a teacher or really anything else with a face tattoo.

If I had to guess this was behavior the mother had pulled many times before but that he would never accept hearing about even though he knew it must be true. "Mother would never do anything to harm me, mother just wants to protect me".

She should absolutley look at pressing charges though. It'd probably be a hard thing to prove at this point though. What she should have done was bring a baggie, put some food in it, and have it tested for poisons. Although admittedly I have no idea how one would go about that.

My [19M] Boyfriend [19M] Will Not Stop Farting

quote:

My boyfriend of 8 months will not stop farting. He absoutely will not. He looks me dead in the eyes as he does it. We will be talking and he looks directly into my eyes, holds eye contact, and farts. Loud. Long. Is this an intimidation tactic? Don't some animals do this to fend off predators? Is this a defence mechanism? I've gone through several psychology sites to find the answers, and nothing.

It never ends. I cannot breathe. Help

TL;DR My boyfriend won't stop staring at me and farting I can't breathe help

He's making a power move.

Assert your dominance by out-farting him so that you may be the alpha top in bed. But if you poo poo yourself, you lose instantly.

Or you can treat him like an animal that hasn't been housebroken yet and whap him with a newspaper until properly disciplined.

Face tattoos are almost universally ugly. But it does depend on what kind of tattoo she gets.

I think if she's going just for eyebrow tattoos, that might just be okay. It may or may not look good, but it potentially won't screw up her future employment. Maybe.

You have to punctuate text like a comic book. That means exclamation points and question marks only, unless you wish to convey an angry or overtly serious tone. It's a new medium, deal with it gramps

I see your face tattoo, i raise you a tattoo of a face

My [22f] boyfriend’s [24m] new tattoo makes me feel like a pedophile

quote:

Hey guys, throwaway account because my boyfriend knows my normal account.

I don’t really know how to begin so I’m just gonna dive right in. We’ve been together for four years now, living together for 2 and every aspect of our relationship is honestly perfect and I have a sneaking suspicion that he’s planning to propose sometime in the near future.

Last year however his younger brother who was only 6 years old, passed away. This took a major toll on my bf (obviously), but especially because he was extremely close with his little brother. His parents are major screw ups to put it bluntly, and as a result his little brother spent a lot of time living with us. To the point where we practically became like a mum and dad to him and even discussed filing for custody.

The problem arises when a few months ago my boyfriend mentioned he wanted to get a tattoo to commemorate his little brother and asked what my thoughts were on this idea. He has no other tattoos and never expressed wanting one before so i was a little surprised but completely supportive. He talked about getting his brother’s name or date of birth or something equally sentimental. Cool, I thought. That all sounds beautiful.

We didn’t really talk about it again until he told me he had booked a time in with a tattoo artist. It was on a day I was working so I couldn’t go with him and when I asked what he had decided on he said he wanted it to be a surprise. I was really looking forward to seeing it, thinking it was going to be something small and cute.

I did not expect him to come back with an almost life-size headshot of his little brother slapped across the majority of his feckin chest.

It was definitely a shock but I reacted positively and told him it looked really good. It was only the outlines and such at this point and he said he was going to go back and get it filled in...

It’s been a few sessions now and he’s had the whole shebang done to it. Colours, shading, everything to the point where it could be mistaken for a photo now. I can’t deny that it’s a seriously incredible piece of artwork. Bf is super proud of it and I honestly think it’s pretty cool as well.

My only issue with it is during sex.

It takes up such a large space on his chest and it’s the only tattoo he’s got. It doesn’t help that he’s pretty pale and doesn’t have much hair so the tattoo REALLY stands out and my attention is constantly drawn to it.

Not to mention this thing is like the Mona fu*cken Lisa.

Any position that we’re facing each other in, I always end up making eye contact with it. And every time I do it makes me feel so uncomfortable and absolutely kills the mood for me. Every time. Ignoring the fact that this kid was practically like a son to us, I doubt I would be able to have sex while looking into the eyes of ANY six year old.

It’s honestly ruining our sex life.

I haven’t told my bf any of this because I feel like I can’t say anything negative about the tattoo because of its meaning and the fact that it’s permanent. (I know lasers exist but I doubt he’ll ever get rid of it)

Lately we’ve mainly been having sex in positions where I’m facing away from him, or while we keep our shirts on and he’s started to notice this and has told me he’s worried I’m not attracted to him anymore.

I am attracted to him. I’m just not attracted to the six year old on his chest.

What can I do in this situation? The thought of telling him this, or anything negative about the tattoo makes me feel like a monster. But looking at it during sex is making me feel like a monster too.

Should I talk to him? Am I overreacting? Is our sex life officially dead?

Thanks for any help you guys can give.

tl;dr- My boyfriend got a massive tattoo of his recently deceased six-year-old brother on his chest and I can’t stop making eye contact with it during sex.

Come on, who doesn't want a dead-eyed tattoo of a dead kid leering at them during sex?

Wow, some people I talk to use periods. Others do not. And some are inconsistent. I use punctuation.

So far none of them have gotten worked up enough about it to get into an “all-out screaming match” about it so I am guessing most people just do not care.

AITA for not wanting to raise my step daughter( who hates me) after the death of my husband.

Hey guys, this might sound awful but please read. I've not decided anything yet, just looking for some perspective.

My husband and I got married two years ago. I have a daughter from a previous marriage and so does he. Let's call her Sarah. Sarah is 8. Idk why but Sarah hates me. I've tried to work it out with her but we were completely incompatible. So, we decided it was better if I didn't make any decisions for her. A couple of months ago, my husband died in an accident. It was a hard time for everyone.

Sarah's mom is no more. She has her grandparents who, don't want her. So, I'm her guardian now. But it's been so difficult for me. She hates me. Calls me names. Throws things around the house and always gets into fights with my daughter (4yo). She pulls my daughter's hair, throws away her toys etc. I know that she's grieving but I'm really fed up and can't take her anymore.

I'm thinking of giving her up to a foster home. Idk why, but she also reminds me of my husband. I've tried everything including therapy, but I'm unable to make any progress with her.

But when I told her that I won't be putting up with her anymore she started crying and hugging me. I really thought I was an rear end for trying to give her up. But after that, it's just back to square one. AITA for wanting to give her up?

Edit: I can't afford therapy guys. I don't make that much. I think she would benefit from someone with resources.
