Neito posted:A lot of this is definitely a case of "Why are you with this person if you trust them so little?" So if you got a text from your SO in the middle of the night talking about wanting to ride some cock that read like part of a conversation with someone else, you would have zero concerns at all. Ok. I think it's ok to admit that there are some things which would make even the most well-adjusted and good partner suspicious of cheating. And one of them is being in a Black Mirror episode where the ridiculously contrived plot of the week was "what if a bug in the phone system was sending text messages to make people suspicious of cheating?"

A wedding ring is not an investment, I shout running through the streets wearing a shirt that says "google courthouse wedding"DeadMansSuspenders posted:My (32M) parents (60's M/F) are insistent that my wife (31F) is driving a wedge through the family by not allowing them to spank our daughter (3F). I feel bad for this dude as he cruises to a divorce because its obvious years of being beaten by his parents have made him terrified of going against them to the point where hes ok with them beating his kids. I mean, not enough to not want his wife to find this post and just divorce him now, but you get it.

Peaceful Anarchy posted:Who cares what "most people" do, she's special and deserves to be better than "most people." That's the beauty of everything wedding related. It doesn't matter what normal is. Everyone who cares that much about it sees themselves as so special that normal is out the window and the sky is the limit. You can get a lot better. Its probably because I am in LA but just lol at a 10k 1.5c that is way over priced.

Well I mean an iPhone and an Apple Watch cost like $1800 on average and they last for two years so expecting to spend 10X than that on something that lasts a "lifetime" and "shows how much I am loved" makes perfect sense if you are irrational about a basically worthless stone.

I've seen another story about this from a boy who never wore deodorant until someone told him he had BO, and there's more in the reddit comments about girls whose moms never taught them to shave or get a bra... a shitload of parents just don't tell their kids basic things and get mad at them for not knowing them through osmosis or something.

DeadMansSuspenders posted:My (32M) parents (60's M/F) are insistent that my wife (31F) is driving a wedge through the family by not allowing them to spank our daughter (3F). The comments are kind of amazing. quote:They are raising my niece and nephew half the time, so they expected to have my daughter half the time too, and if it weren't for my wife wanting to move away, they would have. After she was born they actually hired a lawyer and tried to sue us for partial custody of her. THAT'S how seriously they take being grandparents. So not being able to have ANY say over how my daughter's being raised is a major issue for them.  quote:I guess the crux of the issue to me is that by insisting we stand our ground my wife is de facto asking me to cut out everyone I knew before I was 28. Over a swat on the butt a few times a year. I just can't believe this has to be such a big issue... It's just occasional child abuse from some psycho babysnatchers, why are you being so difficult? Like this dude should be glad his wife even lets their kid be in the same state as his parents after they got lawyers involved. If my inlaws tried to sue me for custody of my children, I wouldn't even let the kids near their graves to piss on them.

quote:Every year, those who work in the offices at my workplace partake in this yearly seafood festival. They offer to invite everyone but those of us who are not in the office decline because we're not fans of those types of delicacies. I'm honestly kind of fascinated by the disdain blue collar workers have for white collar workers in mixed work environments that doesn't go both ways. I have a blue collar friend that turned down an office job that would been a huge promotion because he didn't want to be "one of them" and has struggled ever since throwing out all the goodwill he had earned.

my (21f) boyfriend (21m) won't stop sleeptalking about brexit and it's driving me insane!! so my boyfriend has always been talking in his sleep, but recently it has become a problem. not only has it become more frequent, but also a lot louder and clearer. and it is pretty much always about one thing: brexit and more specifically boris johnson. he usually falls asleep before me and will start saying his name over and over. he has his eyes open while he does this btw, i know because i left on the fairy lights one night. it's super creepy (he talks in this voice that sounds VERY awake) and keeps me up many nights. i'm becoming very sleep deprived and i'm thinking to tell him to move out... what do you guys think? how can i solve this? I've talked to him about this, but of course he doesn't have any memory of this or control over it. we agreed to record him one night so he could hear it himself and when we played back the CONSTANT boris johnson chanting he just laughed it off. of course he doesn't think it's a problem if he's not the one not getting any sleep... TLDR: bf dreams of boris johnson and chants his name every night in his sleep and keeps me up.

Somebody found the business hole Husband loves to suck others guys in public toilets. nsfw Throwaway due to the sheer embarrassment. There's a lot in my head right now but I'm going to try and get straight to the point. Married for 14 years, 4 children 12 (my step son), 11, 9 and 5. I quit my jab as a criminal defence lawyer when our second was born. I have been stay at home ever since (5 years). I teach part time at the local college to keep my brain engaged beyond homework help. My husband left is laptop screen open when he went to the grocery store. His laptop was logged into a gay dating website where men post the location of various 'gay cruising' public toilets. My husbands username is very explicit, he has posted in several of the listings of the local public toilets in our area. It looks like he has met several men in these toilets. His stated preferences are: - To suck - To be forcibly bent over - Bareback - Submissive His private message inbox is the most shocking thing I've ever seen. This happened two days ago, I got I my car and collected the kids from school and took them to my mothers house. I am now by myself in a hotel a few miles away. I bought as many over the counter pain pills as I could while on the way here. I have since thrown them in the bin in the hotel. I am still in my hotel, my mum keeps calling but I keep texting her telling her to look after the kids. I don't answer the phone of respond to my husband. I told my mum to not let him have the kids and if he does anything that she must call the police. I haven't handled this well. I don't know what to do next. I'm totally hosed. Even if I divorce him, how could I live on a split of his income? We live in a very nice area, I'd have to move or whatever. I can't even think about any of this right now. I turned to Reddit because I use the step parents sub a lot, there's no way I can tell my friends about this. I don't know want I want from this post. Maybe to hear from someone that things can turn out alright.

My boyfriend’s (25) family excommunicated him for going to see his gay twin sister He encouraged me to share our story with you guys for advice so here we go: My boyfriend comes from a big family. He has two twin sisters, a brother (20s) and a sister (teens). A few years ago, one of his twin sisters, “Lisa” , came out as gay, after she met a great woman from a great family who is amazing to her son. They are in love and are still together. Because my boyfriend’s family is extremely conservative, they were not ok with it and pretty much banned her from their family. This was probably around five years ago. Lisa had been struggling with health issues this year, my boyfriend and I got really worried so we decided to go see her (she lives out of state). We told his family ahead of time, they were not ok with it but we went anyways because it’s his TWIN sister and she has no one else in the family. After we came back, they completely excommunicated us as well. His mom said some of the most evil stuff I have heard a mother say to a son, like saying he was an awful son and she never loved him, etc. My heart truly breaks for my boyfriend. His mom is also a huge narcissist and made sure everyone in the family is against him as well, or at least too scared of her to talk to him. My boyfriend’s dad is the only one who thinks this is ridiculous as well but he has no backbone and literally has to sneak away to either see him or talk to him for a couple of minutes. This is his own son we’re talking about. Everyone says his mom is just waiting on him to apologize and once he does, everything will be better, but neither him nor I think he should apologize because he did nothing wrong and it would just be giving in to and reinforcing his mother’s toxic behavior. I think it is awful how a family can treat their own like that, and it breaks my heart to watch my boyfriend suffer because of it. He is an amazing, loving, and kind person and does absolutely not deserve to be treated like this. He misses his family a lot and I am trying my best to support him. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you in advance

Dear Prudence,quote:My mother-in-law has always doted on our 3-year-old daughter. She has beautiful blond hair, and my mother-in-law loves to brush it, braid it, and dress my daughter up like a doll so she can stage photographs. I always thought this was borderline ridiculous, but my wife doesn’t have a problem with it. Recently my daughter was playing with my sister’s kids and ended up getting a massive amount of gum in her hair. Kids are kids. My sister apologized and paid for the haircut when we couldn’t get all the gum out. My daughter has a pixie cut now. My wife was upset, but her mother turned on the waterworks—actual sobbing over a kid’s haircut. She upset my daughter so much that she started crying too.
