A dozen red roses with baby's breath, wrapped, and NOT from a grocery store. *If* you are the sort of person who believes in rules.

Myself, I've had great luck telling florists, "Whatever you think is beautiful, she loves yellow, and for $80." Some people prefer to add "no carnations, no alstroemeria", both of which are notoriously cheap filler flowers.

I wonder when the rule stopped being "a dozen long-stemmed roses". Does nobody have the right-sized vase any more?

AITA for controlling what my (23f) boyfriend (24m) eats?

quote:

Throwaway because I don’t want him to find this, but I’m honestly at my wit’s end here. I (23f) have been dating my boyfriend “Jake” (24m) for four years. I’d say we’re a happy couple overall, but lately this argument has come up that’s divided us.

He’s always had….unique….tastes. Cereal with orange juice instead of milk, mayo and butter sandwiches, and raw onions have been the worst culprits. I’ve put up with these. We all have our quirks, right?

Well two weeks ago he started eating garlic as his midnight snack. Raw. Cloves. Of. Garlic. I can’t share a drink with him without it reeking of garlic somehow. And kissing him? It’s like shoving a clove straight in your mouth. He swears he’s only eating them “because he didn’t want them to go to waste” and that he would stop once he finished the head of garlic, but just when I finally thought it was over I caught him sneaking a second one into the kitchen last night when he thought I was asleep.

I confronted him about his secret grocery trip this morning and he got really defensive and denied it.

I’m trying not to be a nag here, but it’s really wearing on me. The garlicky aura surrounding him makes me want to avoid him at all costs. But like, I don’t want to do that because he’s my boyfriend. AITA for giving him an ultimatum of no more eating garlic?

EDIT FOR CONTEXT:

His diet seems healthy overall and he goes to the gym a lot. He had a dr’s appointment not long ago and I don’t think anything came up? But I can ask him to go again.

Sorry if the title is confusing, I just feel bad because I did give him an ultimatum this morning which I know isn’t good. I really love him and don’t want to break up but I just don’t know what to do. He hasn’t come back since this morning.

Update post

quote:

Yesterday evening, I tried texting him about seeing a doctor like you guys suggested. He never replied. I guess he still has me muted. I spent the night tossing and turning. I kept going over what I was going to say to him when he got home. Not that it mattered, because he didn’t come back last night. That worried me, so this morning I checked his location. He stopped sharing it with me through his phone, but I guess he forgot I can still see it on snapchat. It showed him about 30 minutes away at some house off a random backroad. I was pretty confused and honestly panicked - all his friends that I know of live in the city. I tried to call him again and was sent to voicemail, so I drove over there to see what was up.

When I got to the house, I noticed a woman about my age gardening in the frontyard. I was pretty upset already, so I flat out asked her if she had seen my partner. She seemed surprised and asked if I meant Jake. She invited me inside and there he was.

Apparently, she’s into gardening and they met at her stand last fall when he went to stock up on onions at our local farmers market. They hit it off and have been seeing each other for the past 6 months, and made it official back when his “busy season” started. She said lately she’s been giving Jake the garlic she grew last summer since it’s going to go bad soon. That’s why he was so insistent on eating it by himself instead of cooking it into a shared dish like normal, and why he’s been eating onions like an apple instead of letting me use them on my sandwiches. He didn’t want to give me her presents because, in his own words, “she grew it with love for me” and “if you ate them you would have known.” (???)

At that point I saw red so I just left. Since then Jake’s been blowing up my phone about how we can fix this and that he won’t do it again but I’m so over it at this point.

Just when I thought my life couldn’t get any worse, while I was moving his stuff to the curb I found his stash of garlic. Shoved in the back of his closet was 1 POUND of garlic in a home depot bucket along with letters she had written him.

I’m keeping the garlic. l don’t think we can ever come back from his cheating, but I’m going to at least get some good meals out of this terrible situation. Please send me your favorite recipes to use the garlic in. I need a distraction to keep my mind off of everything.

TL;DR He’s been cheating on me with a garlic farmer for the past 6 months. I wish I was joking.

A Farley file is a set of records kept by politicians on people whom they have met.

The term is named for James Farley, Franklin Roosevelt's campaign manager. Farley, who went on to become Postmaster General and chairman of the Democratic National Committee, kept a file on everyone he or Roosevelt met.

Whenever people were scheduled to meet again with Roosevelt, Farley would review their files. That allowed Roosevelt to meet them again while knowing their spouse, their children's names and ages, and anything else that had come out of earlier meetings or any other intelligence that Farley had added to the file. The effect was powerful and intimate.

Chef Boyardeez Nuts: Sep 9, 2011; The more you kick against the pricks, the more you suffer.

Musings from a person who is about to learn a lesson:
Is this technically stealing money?;

quote:

I shop on Temu a lot. I found out a way to get my money back after my package has been delivered. What I do is, I click "Return/Refund", I click a item I want my money back on, and it's going to ask why you want to return it. I normally click "no longer needed". Then, it's going to say select a payment method and it's going to say Temu balance or original payment method. I click original payment method, and it gives me my money back, just on that item. You don't even have to return it. My mom also shops on there. I told her that she can get her money back after her package has been delivered even if there was nothing wrong with it. I showed her how to do this and she told me to not do that because it's technically stealing money.

I mean, it's *technically* stealing, but it's also just regular stealing.

And here's a series. Haters are gonna say its fake, but I need it to be true:

I�m married to a woman who acts like a teenage girl

quote:

My wife behaves like a teenage girl and I don�t know whether to laugh or cry.

This is just a rant. Curious to know how many full grown adults behave the way my wife does. I�d say out of all of the adult women I know, like friends, relatives, wives of my friends, none of them behave this way unless they keep it a closely guarded secret.

Editing right here to add that my wife is in her 30s, for context.

My wife is always obsessed with somebody, a man or sometimes multiple men at one time. Usually there is one or two main focuses at a time. When I talk obsessed I mean obsessed like a teenage girl or maybe even preteen girl would be. I�ve seen pictures of her bedroom when she was that age and they were literally wallpapers in posters of her favorite guys. That�s totally normal for a 13 year old girl. She still behaves that way as a woman in her 30s. Granted, our bedroom walls aren�t wallpapered in posters but they probably would be if I allowed it.

Her obsessions have ranged from rock stars, actors, non-entertainment industry public figures. It�s like one day she hasn�t even heard of the guy in question and the next day she�s super fan #1 and knows just about everything there is to know about him. She will read and watch everything there is to watch about the man. She will bring him up in every conversation. She will adopt parts of him into her own personality. She will suggest things that make it clear to me that she wants me to adopt characteristics of these men as part of my appearance or personality. She will openly admit to me that she�s masturbated over the guy multiple times in one day.

When she finds a new man to obsess over, she puts the others in her little stable of men who she always has a place for in her heart and in her fantasies, so they never really go away. The new man just takes center stage and becomes the main focus of almost her entire life.

So the current obsession is so strange to me. Never saw this one coming, but leave it to her to always find somebody new to fall in love with. The intensity that she has during these periods - it�s honestly like she falls in love with these men.

I�m laughing so hard just typing this all. Her current obsession is Bret Hart, former pro wrestler. This woman had never watched wrestling before in her life. Always thought that stuff was below her. And now she�s obsessed with this former pro-wrestler. She watched one show about him, for reasons I�m not aware of, and I could tell almost instantly where it was headed. I thought �here we go�� So now the Bret Hart obsession is in full swing. Has she already dropped close to $1000 in vintage Bret Hart shirts on eBay? Of course. Bought all the stickers and magnets and all sorts of other stupid crap she can find? Yep. Does she send me Bret Hart YouTube clips all.day.long when she�s supposed to be working? Yes she does.

So, I better get to work brushing up on my Bret Hart knowledge and tag lines. This is the key to getting laid when it comes to her. I�m used to this by now. It�s just not something that I can easily explain to anyone I know.

I mean, there�s are things I�m a fan of, but she is next level. I can�t think of anyone I know who is her age and acts like this. She was voted most likely to grow up and become a groupie when she was in high school, so this is absolutely nothing new for her. Sigh.

My wife and her teenage obsession with other men - Update

quote:

I recently wrote about my wife suddenly discovering former pro-wrestler Bret �The Hitman� Hart one day after never even knowing of his existence, experienced love at first site, and is now even deeper than love with him then she was a month ago.

Tonight, I experienced a good hour of her sobbing, literal sobs, after watching the Bret Hart A&E biography. �I just love him so much. I love him with all my heart. I don�t want any more bad things to happen to him. Also, I�m very jealous he�s not my husband.�

She also went from not wanting any kids to suddenly wanting a baby so she can name it Bret (a girl or a boy, doesn�t matter�they will be named Bret). And she almost had me convinced, but I blame that on the heat of the moment.

She�s bought all sorts of clothes just like his. My wife now dresses like Bret Hart in and outside of the ring.

The past few days she�s been acting really annoyed with me. Finally I�m like �Wtf am I doing wrong?� I bought you Bret Hart stuff for your birthday! I call you Mrs. Bret Hart now, even though you�re my wife. I even sent you flowers at work from Bret. I mean that was supposed to get me points because she knew they were from me and I was playing into her obsession which she�s now apparently shared with everyone she works with. They�ve bought her a giant Bret Hart wall decal for her office.

Ok, so I did forget our anniversary which was very recently. Totally forgot it. Then again, so did she. She was too busy masturbating over Bret Hart to remember our wedding anniversary. I mean bad husband points for me obviously but all the birthday gifts had to have made up for it. I mean, I even ordered a Bret Hart birthday banner and got her a Bret Hart themed birthday cake as if she were a 7 year old boy in the year 1994.

So why is she acting so annoyed lately? Why does she act like she hates me and can�t stand to even be in the same room as me? She finally admits�I�m not Bret Hart. None of her obsession have ever been this bad. She�s seriously threatening me with divorce now because I�m not Bret Hart! She �just wants a guy like that.� She had to go walk the dog today and cry over it, how much she hates me and wishes she was married to Bret Hart. Oh gently caress me you want a guy like your dad because that�s what Bret Hart is like�exactly like her dad, the same look, the same hair, the same drat age.

I told her I think she should get checked out for autism or some other sort of disorder. Her obsessions have never been this bad. She should make an appointment now because the waitlist is long. She just laughed. There�s nothing wrong with her. She just has different taste in men now, according to her.

Good grandson, terrible mom.

AITA for refusing to give my family their �fair share� after Grandmother left everything to me in the will?

quote:

My grandad passed away in July 2020 due to COVID & Grandma was very upset over his passing. Next, one of my Uncles took control of Finances, bills everything. Mid-December 2020, I asked my grandma if she agreed to this which lead to an argument & me and my missus got kicked out of her house.

Next day, I got a call from Grandma saying �Please come home�. I never held a grudge & came back to apologise, then to find out that my Uncle was pushing Grandma to move south with him & his Missus as �you don�t have anyone here�. Turns out Grandma wanted to talk to me about what to do as she was uncomfortable. I simply said �if you�re uncomfortable, don�t do it. You�re his mother so he HAS to agree with your decision�. So she told him no & he took it well. Too well.

March 2021, Grandma made a Will with a local solicitor in their office but later that evening at home, the solicitor called me & asked if my Grandmother had the properties n her name. I said she should do & asked why. She said �something didn�t sit right with this and wanted to check�. I said I�d check and went to Land Registry to find out & what did I find? The same Uncle that controlled everything had HIS name on all of my Grandmas assets! I asked my Grandma if she did this and she didn�t even know this happened! I was shocked & immediately told the solicitor, asking what can we do.

A legal battle ensued which was over 1 year. Turns out that my Uncle fraudulently signed property transfer papers so everything would be in his name. Even my own Mum got involved, siding with my Uncle. He decided to do a settlement which Grandma agreed to as she was getting sick of everything, including her own kids. He gave her money in return for one of the smaller assets & she wanted no contact with my Uncle ever again.

Mid 2022, she made a new Will & we finally got peace. So, I decided to take Grandma on holidays once every few months, which she loved and made lasting memories.

End of Jan 2024, she was diagnosed with Cancer and I told my Mum to be here with Grandma as she should settle things with her and make peace with her, even if my Grandma didn�t want to see my Mum (I just wanted to do the right thing for both). A month later, Grandma passed away at home.

Last week, After the funeral, my parents came to the family home to discuss with me & my Missus about the houses and the other stuff. They SUDDENLY jumped in, saying �you need to do the right thing & give us the house & our share as we are the children and you�re just a grandchild. We know you did everything in the last 3+ years but compared to us, you didn�t do much�. (Context: my parents haven�t been in this house regularly for over 10 years and I lived here since 2010)

Me and my Missus simply said �Sorry but what Grandma wants to do, it is her decision and not ours�. This lead to shouting (me and my Mum, mainly) and threats of legal action from them. We never mentioned the Will (as said by the solicitor).

LOL, mom and dad conspired with the uncle to steal grandma blind, got caught by the grandson, and now they're whining about being cut from the will.

The grandson taking his elderly widowed grandma on holidays every few months is pretty :unsmith:

but I wonder if he was also working to cement himself as the primary or sole beneficiary of her estate (because reading AITA stories has made me terribly cynical and jaded)

Sad part was finding out WWE changed rigging contractors & they didn�t even use the right harness type. They cheaped out & used a loving breakaway clip meant for sailing (they�re meant to come loose without damaging the sails). Tragic & should�ve never happened

They were freaking the gently caress out at WCW gaining in the ratings and heard Sting was going to do that maneuver (however he wore a full on harness and no one broke kayfabe in order to let him unhook multiple safety catches) so they immediately tried to do it first and, rumors say, several wrestlers refused to do it so they went to the number one company man Owen Hart knowing he would agree.

Vince was lucky Bret Hart was no longer at the company, because had Bret not be able to convince Owen not to do the stunt he probably would've killed Vince after that happened.

The grandson taking his elderly widowed grandma on holidays every few months is pretty but I wonder if he was also working to cement himself as the primary or sole beneficiary of her estate (because reading AITA stories has made me terribly cynical and jaded)

eh, even if that was the case it wouldn't change the fact that he was still making his grandma's last years enjoyable.

Yeah, the fact you're doing something nice and caring and perhaps even the 'right thing' doesn't change just because you had cynical motives.
