My(M/37)girlfriend (F/33) is upset with me about a blog
u/nevertrustawetfart (throw-away account)

quote:

I'm 37/m and I've been dating the same girl (33/f) for about two years now. I really love this girl. A lot. I care about her deeply. She's a bit possessive, which I think is partly just her personality, but also is partly due to discovering her dad's infidelities when she was a teenager. One of her fears/insecurities in relationships is the fear that the guy she's with is pretending he's happy and everything is okay, when it actually isn't. She's afraid of being caught off guard, feeling like the rug has been pulled out from under her. Making this slightly more of a sensitive issue for us is the fact that I haven't been faithful in all of my past relationships - this is something I've been working on a lot in therapy for the last couple of years, and I've come to understand why I did what I did, and how to prevent it from happening again.

Here's the situation. I've been getting my hair cut at the same place by the same girl for over a year now. The girl is in her early 20s, and she's the first person I've found who does a really good job with my hair. My girlfriend loves it too, and always says she can't wait to see me after I get it cut. But - she doesn't like that it's a girl who cuts it. She doesn't like that someone else is touching my head. When I first started getting my hair cut by this girl, I would always talk to my girlfriend right after about how it went, and fill her in on what the haircut girl and I talked about. I wanted to be transparent and make sure she didn't feel like I was hiding anything. But she didn't like hearing about it, it made her uncomfortable, so I stopped telling her about it. I still tell her when I'm going to get a haircut, and my girlfriend still loves how I look after, but I don't talk to her about what the haircut girl and I talk about.

Well, last December the haircut girl asked me what I got my girlfriend for Christmas. One of the gifts was a blog page I setup on Facebook for her dog. I spent several hours uploading pictures, writing posts, etc. -- all from the perspective of her dog. The gift was a huge hit. The haircut girl thought it was a really great gift and asked what the dog's name was, and I told her. And since the blog is public, I guess she looked it up. And yesterday, I uploaded a new picture of the dog to the blog - and the haircut girl immediately liked it. (To clarify, the haircut girl 'liked' the post on the blog -- which is completely separate from my personal FB account.) But when my girlfriend saw that some other girl had liked this picture of her dog, she was not happy about it at all, and told me:

I don’t being surprised by some chick that touches your head and is now liking stuff about my dog. No. She cuts your hair. Period. And she shouldn’t be liking your crap. You wouldn’t like it if some dude that cuts my hair started doing that. Especially since you have cheated on both people I have known u to be with. It’s dumb.

So, I understand why my girlfriend is upset. But at the same time, I'm not sure what to do. I don't think I did anything wrong. There's nothing even remotely inappropriate going on between me and the girl who cuts my hair. I could get a new haircut person, even a guy if I looked hard enough, but that won't change the fact that there will always be women that I'll have to interact with for one reason or another. So, I'm really just not sure how to handle this. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Reddit!

TL/DR - girlfriend is mad that the girl who cuts my hair 'liked' a photo I posted on a public blog

Starting a new relationship right after your wife dies is one thing. Going on Facebook and telling your wife’s brother “lol good riddance, the bitch couldn’t even do my laundry when she was bedridden and she stopped sucking my dick after the chemo started so what good was she anyway??? btw the kids call my new wife ‘mom’ now so it’s like she never even existed lmao” is another thing entirely.

is that what happened? im bad at reading apparently because I totally skipped over that part

e: My brother then wrote back "She wasn't the wife or mother she wanted to be for the last 18 months."

I guess I could see that construed that way. I could also see that being his way to say that his wife encouraged him to move on quickly because she knew she couldn't be the mother that she wanted to (he probably should've left out the wife part lol)

Not knowing more about the situation, I couldn't really say. It is a small red flag but not enough to get upset over as far as I can tell.

Grow the gently caress up and stop acting like a child if you don't want to be treated like one. This idiot doesn't even like DnD that much, so develop a personality and some personal interests to go with it while you're working out that spine transplant.

He's getting kicked from the group because his second D&D character and first he's going to really role play is a pure evil slaver in order to antagonize someone else. I stopped at that point because I already know he's the cat piss.

AITA for refusing to return the jeans I stole from the girl who I caught in bed with my boyfriend (ex)?

So Tuesday of last week I made my now ex-boyfriend dinner. He's a paleo junkie and I really wanted to impress him so I skipped class to slice fennel with a razor blade in order to garnish the strip steak I made for him. Yeah I really, really (really) loved him. I decided it would be easier to cook the steak in his kitchen so I went over to his place early (I have a code and open invite). I walked in to find half eaten Dominoes pizza on the counter (remember I sliced fennel with a razor blade because he's so "dedicated" to paleo) and noises coming from the bedroom.

I walked in and he was absolutely plowing a good looking girl with a spectacular body. gently caress me for not eating pizza to impress him. I stood there in shock. She saw me over his shoulder first and started tapping furiously for him to get off. He turned around and hit me with the oh so classic "this isn't what it looks like!"

I was speechless and had no idea what to do but I saw her clothes hanging over his desk chair. Because apparently I'm a petty b!tch, the only thing I could think was I wanted her to have leave his apartment without pants. I don't know, it made sense at the time.

He came after me begging me not to overreact, I didn't say a word and took off to my car. In the days since he's gone from begging me to "be reasonable," to begging me not to break up with him and promising he'll never do it again.

The thing is, I love these jeans. Yes as a trophy of me being petty and at least ruining something of hers like she had he tag teamed to ruin my heart and self esteem. But they are also a super expensive brand, they look really good on me and I like wearing them.

So EX has gone from begging me to get back together with him to saying that me keeping the jeans is causing him "real problems." I don't give a slight poo poo about his problems but I sort of feel bad about keeping this girl's clothes.

So I'm asking...I know I'm petty...but am I an rear end in a top hat?

This story has made my day and that lady is so incredibly awesome. :laugh:

You shall not pass!

quote:

Dear Care and Feeding,

For the first time in my 10 years of being a parent, I am really struggling—for real. My husband and I have one son, Evan, and we both have excellent relationships with him, but I have reached a roadblock I am not sure how to get around. Without knowing us, you would never put my husband and me together—he is a jock, super social, loves and plays sports, a real “guys’ guy.” I am an introvert and artist and have never played or watched a sport in my life. But he’s my best friend, and we just get each other; I wouldn’t trade my relationship with him for anything. Our son is just like him, and I couldn’t be prouder.

But I struggle. I want to be involved in Evan’s life, and I try. When he was little, I loved taking him to his sports outings—they were so cute, the competition was minimal, and the emphasis was on having fun. But now Evan is involved in a lot of competitive sports; he plays everything—volleyball, hockey, soccer, basketball, and football. He is very athletic, works very hard, and is even the captain of a couple of teams.

I find the whole thing very stressful. I don’t understand what’s happening with any of it. Sports have a language I just don’t understand (I have tried), and I find the tension overwhelming. I am shocked at how animated the parents get and how obsessed they are with winning—it’s a game! Let them have fun! People actually get upset about this stuff?

My husband sees how stressed the whole environment makes me, and he encourages me to limit my involvement, but how can I do that? I only have the one child! It means so much to Evan that I watch him, and I want to, but I just don’t want to be in that world. My husband coaches most of the time, so I’m usually on my own in the stands, and the anxiety I experience attending these things is getting worse; I am starting to dread weekends because that’s when most games take place. I usually volunteer to help organize, make posters, or fundraise. It’s just the games I hate—which is kind of the point. I have a lot of years of this ahead of me—how am I going to get through this without medication? I am seriously heading in that direction.

It sounds like she is pretty involved with all his games and helping to organize stuff, so I don’t think she’s just looking for an excuse to get out of it. Not caring about sports isn’t weird, but getting really stressed out and anxious about just being there is. My only real suggestion is seeing a therapist or psychiatrist because it really does sound like she might have some anxiety issues. And if sports for 10 year olds are bothering her this much she’s really going to have a bad time when he’s in high school.

My Girlfriend’s Family Destroyed the TV I Gave Them and Then Demanded I Replace It

quote:

Gifts for girlfriend’s family: I have been with my girlfriend for five months. After I got a big raise at work, I decided to splurge and upgrade my TV and computer. I knew my girlfriend was raised by a single mom, “DeeDee,” and that money was tight with the two younger brothers. I offered them my 4-year-old computer and TV. At first, my girlfriend’s mom was overjoyed. We drove down and set everything up for the kids. A week later, DeeDee texted me that her boys had destroyed both the TV and the computer and that it was my job to replace them. I told her no. She left a profanity-filled voice message. When I went to talk to my girlfriend, she came down on her mom’s side. It was an “accident,” and it wasn’t like I couldn’t afford to replace them. We fought. My girlfriend started to cry and I apologized to make her stop, but I am still pissed. I am questioning my relationship with her now. I do love her, but this entire situation has put things in a different light. We are each other’s first serious relationship. What do I need to do?
This is why ages are required on Reddit, if this kid is over 20 he's dumb as poo poo. (And probably if he's younger than 20 too.)

Not that anyone should read any further, but that's absolutely not what happens. He never actually plays his evil character as, well, evil because he's too much of a carebear. Instead he continues to subject himself (and us, his captive audience) to some K-pop loving manipulator in his very own and very lame version of "No Exit" by Sartre.

That's one of the scenarios I was picturing. Well, not exactly that, but just that the dying mother wanted her family to be happy when she was gone, even if that means getting replaced.
