I always just turn the spoon upside down and stir it with the handle, never broken a french press

Cowslips Warren posted:AITA for blowing up on my fiancee for hiding the truth behind our wedding rituals? I'm kind of doubting the veracity of this post- if the bride's religious enough that the OP has to be legally Muslim to marry her, then it stands to reason she would have been religious enough to not want to marry a non-Muslim in the first place.

It's a little known fact that alcohol's depressant qualities perfectly counteract caffeine's stimulative effects, you can just combine em and drink as much as you want!

My (40F) Boyfriend (39M)Ruined My Workplace Celebration And Said He Wanted Sex With My Sisterquote:TLDR: the man I thought I would share my life with expressed sexual desire for women who are very dear to me. He ruined a celebration with my colleagues by accusing me of inappropriate behavior with them. I still have to see him and I'm finding this very difficult. What are the odds that he's already cheating on her?

She's not marrying a non-Muslim; she's going to be marrying a very recently converted Muslim. It's really quite supportive when you think about it - they can grow spiritually together throughout the marriage, which is a beautiful thing. My partner nixed the Asian wedding hard, sadly. I'm all for a multi-day party, but in fairness the costume changes seem like a lot of faff. No white horse for me either, although that's probably more a tasteless rich person thing than it is traditional.

AITA for forcing my son into a smaller room so my daughter and her husband can move into his?quote:My(48f) pregnant Daughter (25) and her husband are moving back to our city because of a job offer for my sil. They asked us to move in with us for a year or so because they couldn’t find an affordable house immediately. They will eventually buy a house here. I am thrilled that she is coming back. Not only because I missed having her close to me but also because of the help I can provide for her when the baby is born.

AITA for not requiring my daughter to bring a gift to her friend’s birthday?quote:My daughter is 14. She has a good friend whom she’s known for three years. When I was in high school, my friend had limited funds, but she painted me a loving awesome dragon on a rock the size of a dinner plate, and for one birthday she gave me a drawing about 2 foot by 3 foot, all black and white of fantasy dragons and unicorns and poo poo. I still have both of them. Meanwhile the various knickknacks and poo poo from other people over the years, I may or may not have kept most of those. Mostly the latter. I need more friends who do the homemade poo poo.

Cowslips Warren posted:AITA for not requiring my daughter to bring a gift to her friend’s birthday? Anyone who does not appreciate a hand made gift, and indeed insists on a store-bought one instead is by definition a horrendous arsehole. Also, if you are given something that someone else has spent their own precious time, energy and skills on. That they did thinking of you, and with the intention to give you something of themselves. Even if it is poo poo, useless, ugly, and awful. That is worth at the very least a smile and a thank you. And if you can't muster that, then you are a monster. Home-made gifts are awesome. I have written a little story in a notebook every year for my nieces birthday. I forgot/was lazy two years in a row, and she came to me and said, "Uncle BrigadierSensible, can you please write me another story for my birthday next year." It broke my heart and I was suitably shamed. She turns 12 this November and you'd best believe I have written her a story. It's about mermaids.

AITAH for saying I would never have chosen my husband as the father of my child?quote:I (37F) and my husband Liam (30M) have two children. I’m currently pregnant with our third (and last)! Liam is a wonderful husband and a fantastic father. in comments Dave was using Liam as cover for his affair, so Liam was right pissed. and he finds the whole thing funny now and teases the OP/his wife that she hated him and now they're in love and together. and Dave and his AP broke up.

Whoops, didn't see it had already been posted, it was a two for one last page, I guess I skimmed right over it. As for the story, it seems weird to me they can casually drop 5k+ on a bribe, and the only solution was to take the kid's room, I kind of admire the kid valuing the space over the material stuff.

Oh the sister needed the larger room for all the clothes we bought her but it equalled out by buying the son all the tech poo poo he wanted, which is why it makes sense to bribe him with tech poo poo he presumably already has. Also, moving back in with your parents as an adult sucks and I would never do it, but if you were a golden child, it probably does sound more attractive to have everyone at your beck and call. Anyways, I doubt the children were treated equally.

But once she moved out (at approximately ages 23 and 14, respectively) and the room was up for grabs? Totally fair for him to not want to give up his nice room and go back to the small one.
