Yeah she talked about how much she wanted that Jeep and then immediately throws it back in her husband's face once he gets her one. She's the rear end in a top hat even ignoring that she wants a stupid loving Tesla

I'm (F22) getting tired of supporting my unemployed BF (M23).quote:I'll try to be short and straight to the point...Me and my boyfriend have been together for 5 years and living together for a year and a half. Background: We were together since highscool. I went to college and he didn't. We spent 2 years long distance until I graduated. After I graduated, I moved to the city he was staying for us to get our first place. I was able to get a job in my field instantly when I moved (so I wouldn't have to financially depend on him) and he already had a job in retail. We have had our ups and downs but so far things were good till about almost a year ago when he quit his job for being disrespected. Getting real Dermott from Venture Bros. vibes from the guy with impossibly high standards who is going to be a professional rear end kicker.

I am forever perplexed by the couples where one brings absolutely nothing and doesn't want to change their manchild ways (I suspect vastly more men than women but social stuff like that gets weird) and the other pays for everything. Maybe I know people where that's the case and they just hide it well or something, Christ. Two months isn't the worst example the thread has presented but still. Maybe I just have a whole oedipal thing and preferring competent take no bullshit women like the ones who raised me but come the gently caress on. It's like the people who want SOs they can steamroller instead of a partner, I guess. Dicap and all that.

I assume they came from a lovely family where their parent got married out of obligation/tradition and stayed together out of inertia/fear of being alone/decorum. When "family is who you're obliged to be with regardless of how much they suck or you're a bad person" is what you grew up with, it's hard to act in a rational manner.

AITA for not giving my BF 50% of my pain/injury settlement after I got in an accident in his car?quote:So earlier this month I (21F) was driving my boyfriend's (22M) C5 corvette when someone ran a red light at an intersection and hit me, totaling the car. I was the the driver in the car and had no passengers besides my two dogs. I was not at any fault for this accident, there were several witnesses that the other driver ran their red light and hit me. I was not seriously injured and my dogs were fine, just shaken up. My boyfriend was upset that his car is totaled but was not mad at me, just frustrated with the situation, which I understood. (Also note he knew I was driving his car at the time, and I had permission to do so.) An ambulance was not called and my boyfriend drove me to the hospital afterwards. My injuries, though not serious, include the typical whiplash and shoulder/back pain, contusions, muscle soreness etc. as well as a busted lip that was bleeding pretty badly at the time of the accident. I was prescribed pain medications at the hospital following the accident.

Thankfully all of the comments are unanimously explaining she's not the rear end in a top hat and that her settlement is for her recovery, bills, pain, etc. I have as much sympathy for people whining about not getting what they expected in an insurance on their Corvette as I do for, let's say, White South Africans who inherited a lot of farmland.

Invisible Clergy posted:"Of course, they think only whites have souls." What could OP have done better earlier in her life and what extra steps could she have taken once she was independent from them? I think it's hard to not internalize at least some of your parents' attitudes and whitewash some of their behaviors, especially when they're your adoptive parents and loving too. I definitely see your point about her needing to have and project clarity in her retrospective, especially considering her bio mother. What are your feelings about The Racist Tree, which I can see echoes of in this situation?

Is it common for jurisdictions to force teenagers to do visitation, even if they’re a year away from being an adult? When I was 13 I decided I didn’t wanna see my mom’s POS ex-husband anymore; the cops were called and they were basically just like “lol give me a break, he’s 13, he’s old enough to decide, we won’t force him to do poo poo”

The Maroon Hawk posted:Is it common for jurisdictions to force teenagers to do visitation, even if they’re a year away from being an adult? Like anything with family law, it depends heavily on the jurisdiction and the whims of the judge. It could easily be that since there's only a year left on the daughter's sentence, the dad and kids decided fighting it in court is more trouble than waiting out the clock or this is what the court gave them after they pared it back from more enforced visitation time. Given how OP characterizes himself in the post, it seems like he'd make at least a token effort to respect the daughter's wishes.

It's a C5, there's like 15 of them for sale within 25 miles of me for sub $15,000, some reasonable but grubby ones under $10k. It's about the same price as a 5 year old honda accord.
