Uncle Enzo posted:The dude says outright he was in a bad place already, he got sold a very misogynistic viewpoint, then not one but two paternity tests came back negative. There's many examples in this thread of people completely blowing up their life based on hearsay, much less multiple independent genetic tests. and however he got there, the dude was right in that the kid was not his biologically (but obviously him and his wife are the mum and dad for that kid now).

Man I was going 1000% TA for that guy until the edits, but good on him for not only fully grasping that what he was doing was super lovely, but actually acknowledging that he has his own problems that he needs to work on. We barely ever get that level of maturity here. Also amazed that apparently, Reddit was the one who... actually gave him good advice??

MK-Ultramarathon posted:Just lol'ing at the extreme understatement of "I realized my partner and I aren't seeing the relationship the same way" when OP wants to break up while partner has already set a date to propose. Like, is it common for people to get so far off the same page in a relationship? I know the answer is "yes", exhibit 1 being "this entire thread", but still. No, but 'two year long distance relationship'. I know people who's relationships have gone though stretches of long-distance and they've made it work, but if you've never actually lived together then that's not a relationship, you are just penpals who hook up when one of you happens to be in town.

We barely ever get that level of maturity here. I know, right? Also interesting the topic of food and boundaries related to it comes up again. I'm reminded of one post a while back about a serial office food thief getting confronted and having to be taught the whole concept of respecting boundaries when it comes to food since he was used to his family drat near stealing bites from each others' hands. Food trauma of all kinds is way too common, often because of normalised bullying and boundary stomping, as well as poverty and deprivation. I think teenagers get a reputation for eating so much because it takes parents too long to realise their kids are growing and don't have kid-sized appetites anymore.

I didn't get that impression myself - it's pretty normal for a family to be excited their child is getting engaged - but at the same time it would explain a lot about how they could have such different views on their relationship if the guy's family were pressuring him to propose.

The mom called her to tell her to dress up and not wear heels because her son was going to propose to her in the garden that they had made up for the occasion. That's a mother who's *way* more involved in the idea of marriage than the son is.

TIFU by leaving a massive order alone with my now ex and her 14 friendsquote:I'm sorry I just need somewhere to vent as literally everyone is saying I'm a d*** for kicking my pregnant ex out over this. To clarify this is not the first time she's done this but this time it cost me over $1000. Also, I'm sorry if this was choppy I'm seeing red right now.

Sinbad's Sex Tape posted:TIFU by leaving a massive order alone with my now ex and her 14 friends I'm kind of confused. They left the baked goods in a closed down store. I don't think it's hosed up not to just assume your girlfriend is going to grab 14 wild bears to go and hoover up the baked goods. The actual gently caress-up is staying with someone this useless long enough to get them accidentally on purpose pregnant.

Yeah I'm really curious how the ex and friends had access to the bakery. Did the OP give her a copy of the key in the past for some reason? Did they steal a key from the house? Do they just not lock the door?

"Do you want the baby to starve?" I say as me and my fourteen friends break into your place of business and eat an entire wedding's worth of pastries. In other food news. AITA for quitting as a bridesmaid because of the request the bride made? quote:I f21 have a childhood friend named Natalie (22). Her family and mine know each other well (we were neighbors and have been in co tact for years attending events and going trips together). She's getting married soon and she's picked me to be one of her bridesmaid. I agreed because I felt honored to be included as I've never been a bridesmaid before.

Pretty sure the "they" usage in that section was referring to just the partner they were talking to via video chat, not the family. They are still definitely incompatible, but planning out your life with your partner isn't weird at all.

Dog Children ;live in a backwards world these days. Leashes aren't fun. I'm ready to run. It's time to shoot my light machine gun. Why are you trying to control and direct what already has their mind made up? it's a subtle plant to mix your strut. Let me run. Watch me go. I lead the way with a fiery blow. My body is purified. My mind is clear. No longer do I possess the fear. Relationships are about following the leader My father up high is my guider. i go when it's time. there is no structure but it's always there. Do you dare date the man who follows his creator? A pocket of lips.

I desperately want to see the email, because the bride seems to have a mental quota for how many nationalities need to be represented. Does she just have like a checklist she made from Googling "wedding clothes every culture"?
