I decided to do a prank I have long wanted to do: put his house up for sale. My wife, "Diana," told me that I would get arrested and go to jail. I laughed it off, as she often says this to me when I am considering a next-level prank. "Diana" is thoroughly sick of your poo poo, as are your co-workers.

If you’re not American, please try to imagine getting three vacation days a year if you’re doing WELL, and having them ruined by your coworker for any reason at all.

I’d bet that the previous pranks were like “taped someone’s phone cord together” or “sticky note on chair” or something similarly harmless. And the reason his coworkers have turned on him is because dude, screwing with his wife and kids is over the line, dumbass. I would also bet that if someone did that to him, he would Flip His poo poo.

Baronjutter posted:I don't mean to pry, but what attracted you to someone like that in the first place? How did you get to know her well enough to marry and have kids but not notice what a garbage person she was? Good question. Another longish story. We met in college and there were some of her behaviors that I just attributed to stupid college stuff. Like being a little messy or being socially awkward at times. The rest of them were really present until much later. She had a horrible childhood, very little friends in school, and no family support. Right before going to college, she had made a lot of life changes. She stopped communicating with most of her family, lost a bunch of weight and got really active, started trying to be more social and get involved in activities. When we met, she was a very different person. However, she never really dealt with any of the issues of abandonment or abuse from her childhood. She just hid them and pretended they didn't exist. So bit by bit, her new persona started falling apart. She started caring less, didn't take care of herself, didn't get stuff done, stopped going out and doing things, and spent a lot of time online. I thought she was just really busy with her final year of school. Turns out she had an online relationship with some dude who lived in another country. I found out about that, broke up with her, and kicked her out (she was living with me in a house I owned). Fast-forward six months. It's right before graduation. I've spent the last 6 months working on myself and have only just started to dip my toes back into dating. I had one short relationship but we broke up because I was going to law school 5 hours away. My family has apparently been interacting with her the last 6 months because they really liked her and didn't understand why we broke up (all called off an engagement). They thought it was something I did. I didn't want to tell them the truth because 1) I was ashamed and 2) they were basically the only family she'd ever had so I didn't want to shame her. They convinced me to meet with her to talk. She acted and looked totally different; just like she did when we started dating. She told me everything she'd done to work on herself. She apologized for all the wrong she had done and took responsibility for her actions. She told me everything she was doing to make her life better. She had taken the MCAT and GRE and was getting ready for grad school. She was going to take the fall off but go either in the spring on the next year to either Med School or a Grad Biology program. Like an idiot, I took her back. Like a total loving moron, I trusted that she was still on birth control. Round two of this has us living in a new city three months later. We were happy. She was seemingly fine, engaged in doing things, making friends, and happy. She was always talking about job searching and showed me things she had applied for. Everything seemed great... What I didn't know was that she had bombed both the MCAT and GRE. Her last year of school her grades were so bad that they didn't even help with scores at all. She hadn't been applying for jobs. She had no interest in actually working. By the time she was 6 months along, we just agreed that she would wait until after the baby to search again. Baby comes, we're happy, things seem great for a few more months. We had some small fights about money, taking care of our daughter, and household chores. Pretty sure every couple with a new baby has those. She says that she would like to start searching for a job again and do more around the house so we get a daycare for our daughter. She gets a job that isn't fast food or retail but it is barely above minimum wage. It is meant to be short term until she goes back to school or finds something better. She decides to work on a teaching license. She's lonely and wishes she had friends in the area. Three months later: She loves her job and doesn't want to do anything else. She got a small promotion (like $.50). No teaching licenses. No grad school (that true came out). She's working more and more and I'm picking up more and more. She seems happy and has friends now. I try to be supportive and let her enjoy her time with friends and back off of encouraging her to follow her plan. Then the weird things start happening. Last minute working late. Working on weekends. Getting unusually dressed up to go out with friends. Late night texting. Sex life stops. Completely disengages from parenting. I let this go on for far too long because relationship drama is the last thing I need while juggling everything else. Then she just doesn't come home some nights. She claims to be staying with friends. I find out she's been cheating for months with multiple people and has a secret relationship with her boss who is ~14 years older than her (~ versus 23), recently divorced, and deals on the side. She's basically been lying to me and faking who she is for years. So the previous post occurs. Don't ignore red flags. Sever immediately. Cheaters always cheat.

I understand from experience why so many people make terrible loving decisions because I made them too. I just hope one person reads my story and thinks, "drat, I should just right?"This thread also makes me appreciate that as hosed up as my stuff was, there are people who make worse decisions like "maybe I should take back my husband who has been loving the neighbors daughter, possibly while she was underage." My daughter has a friend next door that comes over sometimes. I cannot imagine being so brokebrained to ever make a move on that. Even in 20 years. It is too loving weird.

WIBTA if we’d cut out our sister(IL) completely? Last Sunday, we celebrated my father in law’s birthday. My boyfriend (37), myself and my teenage daughter were invited, as was my Sister in Law (no kids), her husband (H), her boyfriend (BF) and her husband’s girlfriend (GF). They’ve been in this polyamorous relationship for about two years and they all get along fine. All fine with me. SIL (PhD in neuropsychology) left the ‘rational’ world after a burn-out and became quite… spiritual. Into healings, yoga, gluten free, afraid of wifi radiation, miracle powders (‘it’s not a pyramid scheme, it’s a network approach’), that type. SIL believes in aliens, or ET’s, as she calls them. H, BF and GF are all utterly convinced of this as well. She thinks her ET-guide (let’s call him D, aliens have their privacy as well) uses her to heal people. We think they’re crazy as hell, but hey, live and let live. We only see them like twice or three times a year anyway. They do know we don’t believe in any of that poo poo and do not want to be involved. Last Sunday at my PIL’s house, BF declared to my boyfriend that he’s an uncle. I was quite surprised, knowing SIL’s infertile, but BF explained that they had an invisible child together. About a year ago, SIL got ‘pregnant’, because the ET-doctors had said so. After a few months, she went to a (human) doctor, who told her she wasn’t (and had never been) pregnant. A lot of confusion, but she still believed she was pregnant (surely the ET’s wouldn’t lie). 6 months later, she ‘gave birth’ to an ‘energetic child’. The child then went to live with D on his starship. All this while, we kept a straight face. The BF asked if we would like to ‘meet’ this imaginary alien baby. We weren’t too thrilled, but they kinda pushed it. Funny side note: the baby was with another alien, since D ‘was on holiday’. At this point, I couldn’t hold it back any longer and cried with laughter. No hard feelings from their side by the way. After I calmed down, my SIL started ‘channeling’: eyes fluttering, rapid arm movements, heavy breathing, talking in a strange tone of voice, and just taking A-Lot-of-Time. She let ‘the baby talk’ to us, wanting us to sing a song, making us all hold hands, etc. Later, BF said they were trying to bring the baby back to earth, where lizard people live would live who could transform into humans. If the baby would be there, then it could take a human form and they could all be reunited. We just sat it out. The whole afternoon had just been about them: very little attention for my FIL. When we drove home, boyfriend was furious. He’s really fed up and doesn’t ever want to see his sister again, because they just can’t keep their craziness to themselves. I’m slightly more nuanced: I suggested not meeting them like this again, but occasionally meeting his sister on, for example, her own birthday – when the day really is about her. But he’s just really through with her/them. Would we be the assholes if we’d cut her out completely? just like imagine ur religion teaches you that you just got cucked by an invisible alien

That’s ridiculously childish behavior in a grown person of any gender. Also “Flip the genders” is a pointless and tiresome exercise.

AITA for keeping my daughter home from kindergarten for the day because the substitute was a male?quote:At my daughter’s school, we still have the rest of this week before the summer break begins (a little later than most other districts). My daughter is a kindergartener and dropping her off this morning, I noticed that her regular teacher was gone, and that a substitute was there. This was one of about maybe 5-10 times over the course of the year we’d had a sub; and something about this sub stood out from all the others: he was a male. He was also the youngest of them all, appearing to be in his mid/late 20’s (I didn’t mind this part at all, just an observation).

For advice column posts can we at least include a link? It drives me a bit mad not to see the response. I know for some reason some people don't want to post the response. Fine, post the link and we can go look at the response ourselves then. Can we make that a thread rule? It feels like a fair compromise between the people who do and people who do not want the response.

spite house posted:I was out walking with a guy friend the other day and a woman walked up on us saying "Hey baby!", and for a second it looked like she was talking to my friend, but was actually addressing someone behind him. Friend said "That was so weird, to have a stranger just come up and start talking like that," and I said "this is how you know you're a dude." He got very quiet. As a guy who has not infrequently been sexually harassed, or had awkward stuff like this go on from strangers, I occupy a weird middle ground where I see that kind of attitude from the other guys all the time because they think I'm on that same wavelength. And just yeah. It's amazing how many dudes have an extremely hard time grasping how that kind of attention could be anything but positive. GOD I WISH I HAD GIRLS COMING UP TO ME AND DOING WHATEVER, ITS AWESOME. And it informs why they're such idiots about doing it to girls themselves. Literally not understanding the problem. Every man should be creepily shadowed by a gay classmate at age 14. Learns you stuff.
