I have bizarre memories of running around at midnight in a dangerous area with my roommate because she had to find a place to do last minute travelers checks. For rent.

Why her parents wouldn't let a 16 year old open a bank account is weird though. Pretty much all of my relatives got their kids accounts with debit cards (they they could monitor and control) when they started high school so they could order things and buy Fortnight garbage with their own money, because it's the 21st century and running 100% on cash makes life difficult.

AITA for telling a straight guy he shouldn’t be at the gay bar?quote:Saturday night I went to the only gay bar in town. I’m a 36 year old lesbian and was trying to socialize when a guy approached me. He told me he was straight and I humored a conversation with him because I used to go when I thought I was straight and maybe he was with friends so no big deal.

Every time someone on reddit talks about twin flames they wind up being some kind of weirdo, but that's a new twist on me.

AITB for asking my aunt “is that supposed to make me feel bad”quote:I 32F have an aunt ( my moms brother wife) that’s always been lovely towards me since before I can remember. It has given me huge shelf esteem issues. Her daughter and I are only a few months apart and she always tried to compare us and put us against each other. Her daughter is a tall skinny blonde cheerleader and I’m short with curly brown hair. Funny thing is me and her daughter always got along great and we actually pretty close so it was only coming from my aunt. But now that we are older my aunt constantly comparing us has put a strain on the relationship and we aren’t close anymore. I could go on and on about all the little insults directed my way my entire life. "Hey mum, can you get aunt to back off?" "No. That would start problems." "OK then." *starts standing up for herself* "Why would you do that?????? Don't you dare stand up for yourself at Christmas!" What a horrible family, poor OP.

Motronic posted:There is no "runaround": You can't sign a legal contract at 16 (assuming this is the US). You need a parent or other adult to sign for you for a bank account until you turn 18. If they allowed her to open her own account she would not be legally liable for any fees, overdrafts, etc. In Australia I had a bank account when I was 14. And I don't remember needing my parents permission to get it. And I used this bank account interstate when I was 17, without any major hassles. edit: I also love the "Is that supposed to feel bad"/"Why would you say that?" response to arseholes trying to needle you. Make the bastards explain their nasty passive aggressive comments in front of everyone and see how they it. BrigadierSensible fucked around with this message at 00:35 on Dec 7, 2022 |

She would say something once to one of my kids and be completely banned from any family events and if any family member had an issue with that would also be banned. Like stand up for your kid.

The sister in law apparently hates her mom and is taking it out on her daughter. So the mom is a total doormat who accepts abuse of any kind.

My wife had our second child when she was 35, which meant it was considered a geriatric pregnancy. More tests, etc. Why so late? We had multiple miscarriages. For the person who was wondering how many it takes before you give up, the answer is as many as your heart can take. For us, 4th time was indeed the charm.

AITA for going against my wifes wishes when purchasing our first home?quote:We started the home searching process three months back and this has run in to some problems. My wife has 3 kids and while they are not biologically mine, I still care for them as though they are. So when purchasing a home I obviously have to look for something big enough to house 5 people and the pets. The loan is 100% in my name because her credit is still not great. She's working on it though. None of this really matters too much but they are little details regardless. Comments: quote:The girls are 11 and 8. The 8yo has ADHD, ODD and is being tested for autism. Due to her behavioral issues, oldest doesn't want to share a room. Not like I blame her. My boy is 5. For an addition, including electric and plumbing, it would cost $50k on the low end. The basement would be much more because it's dirt. We would need to lift the house.

fun little divorce project. AITA for being scared of bugs? quote:Throwaway account. Long story short, a family member brought her dog over to sit for. Dog had fleas, that my cat now has. Im less scared of bugs as I am of infestations of bugs. I grew up in poverty, and we had several instances of bug infestations - specifically ants and fleas. Gave me intense anxiety as a child, and I am noootttt doing that again now that I'm moved out. I have had ticks, which were horrible to deal with in a house with various dogs and cats, years ago. Aren't fleas supposed to be far worse?

Fleas are gross, we had pet owner friends whose had them a couple times when I was younger and there's nothing worse than feeling little itches and looking down to find a flea jumping up your leg. I would be happy to get a heads up that someone was dealing with them so I could avoid that, and I would definitely cancel plans to have folks over if I was dealing with them myself.

also if you let your friends over when you have fleas, now your friends can conveniently reintroduce them whenever you think you’ve dealt with it…

Inside the writer and his wife were sitting at a table with their book to sell, same title as the door magnet. In case you were wondering if this was just a creative writing exercise, people like this really exist.

A twin flame is described earlier on this pageLarry Cum Free posted:Sometimes a soul gets split into two different bodies. Then sometimes one half of that soul decides those bodies aren't split far enough apart. I actually looked it up though and it sounds stupid as hell: https://www.mindbodygreen.com/articles/twin-flames-signs-meaning-and-stages quote:Definition: A twin flame is an intense soul connection with someone thought to be a person's other half, sometimes called a "mirror soul." It's based on the idea that sometimes one soul gets split into two bodies. bell jar fucked around with this message at 04:35 on Dec 7, 2022 |
