My boyfriend will break up with me if I go to Miami on a girls trip

quote:

My boyfriend (27M) and I (25F) have been dating for a little bit over 9 months now. We have a pretty healthy relationship for the most part but this is his first relationship so there some areas that he is still working on.

We never really set any boundaries from the beginning except that we didn’t want each other going to clubs or bars and he also would say he does not take any sort of disrespect.

I kinda had to figure out his boundaries throughout our relationship like he does not like me having guy friends or talking to any guys and he does not like it when I accept guys follow requests on instagram or liking their pictures which I totally get so I don’t do it. He also does not do any of that without me asking so I appreciate that.

He’s very respectful to me and I am respectful to him so we have no issues with that. However, my best friends birthday is coming up in May and she is planning an all girls trip to Miami to celebrate and I told my boyfriend I was planning on going and we had a whole discussion about it.

He said he does not feel comfortable with me going to an environment like that with my single friends and he wouldn’t do it to me so he doesn’t want me to do it to him. He said if I go our relationship will be over or if we stay together our relationship will not be the same and he will be getting freedom to do whatever.

I don’t know what to do because I understand where he is coming from but I also don’t want to miss out on my best friends birthday or any other trips that come up in the future.

He’s been really respectful and sweet to me and I don’t want to throw the whole relationship away over one Miami trip but I also don’t want to lose my friends because girl friendships are so important to me.

Should I go to Miami or save my relationship?

TL;DR! - My boyfriend says he will break up with me if I go to Miami with my all my girl friends. This is a boundary that if I cross he will not stay with me. I don’t want to miss out on girl trips but I don’t want my relationship to end.

Posting this mostly because the top comment made me laugh out loud

Those look like something I could easily put away 8 of them, but this dude working through most of a 40 pack is something else.

Being generous about the "2-3" number the others ate initially, and taking out the six he left at the end, he ate at least half the tray.

That said, exactly how long is a room-temp (at minimum) tray of chicken food safe?

AITA because I refuse to use the dishes?

quote:

AITA because I refuse to use the dishes? Long story short my husband is mad at me because I refuse to use the dishes when he keeps peeing in all the cups. I’ve gotten into screaming fits about this because he pisses in the nice glass cups, even when disposable paper ones are in the cabinet. I feel like they’ll never be clean enough to use again after sitting full of his pee all day. I’ve gotten to the point where I don’t want to use the other dishes because sometimes he’ll soak them in the sink with everything else. I just wanna throw everything away and start with a fresh kitchen. My husband thinks I’m overreacting and that it’s incredibly wasteful to constantly use disposable items.

*Edit: I suppose I should add why my husband does it. He occasionally takes my dog’s (very elderly dog,has cancer,has seizures) edibles/weed and has to drug test himself for work related reasons.My husband believes the dishes are just fine after washing.

*Additional Edit: I have brought up the one cup thing, we’re wayyyy past that idea as more than a dozen or so cups have been pissed in. He also doesn’t see the point as “he cleans them really well”.

It's probably not that difficult to sanitize those dishes to the point where they're safe to eat off of, but holy poo poo why would you do this. Why would you make things difficult and uncomfortable for no good reason when you could get paper cups.

Oh he's keeping the piss? I assumed he was self testing before his employer could get to him, but keeping safe piss makes sense. But... then just like get a good couple liters in actual medical jars and freeze them. Get a separate freezer. Good to go, eat the dog weed (or just get regular weed for yourself stop stealing dog medicine I hate this guy).

There is very little in a relationship that could be good enough for me to get over "husband steals our sick, elderly pet's medicine and uses it to get high, and then pisses in all the cups we have as I beg him not to. He does not wash them half the time."

AITA for not giving my roommate a tampon and telling her she can no longer use anything I own?

quote:

This is such a stupid post and I'm still so embarrassed and flabbergasted that this even happened to begin with.

For context: I (25 F) live with roommates, all are female. We've all gotten close in the two years we've lived together, except for one roommate. (We'll call her Emma, 23.) It's not that I dislike Emma, but we've never meshed as well as my other roommates have.

The other day, Emma called us all out to the living room where she was folding her laundry. She held up a pair of underwear and asked if it belonged to any of us, and I recognized them as mine so I said yes. I apologized for the mix up, and she immediately started yelling at me about how disgusting I am and how she wanted to "light herself on fire" after touching them.

Since I live with all girls, this happens all the time and none of us ever get weirded out by it. I cant even begin to count how many times someone's bras, socks, underwear, etc. have gotten mixed with my laundry by mistake. It's a bit embarrassing to admit, but I realized they were actually an old pair of period underwear that had (i cannot stress this enough) MINOR blood stains on them from years ago when I first got my period. Emma again decided to loudly announce how gross she thought I was and how I should be ashamed for not throwing them out, and tried to get my other roommates to look and join in on her outburst.

Thankfully I live with some awesome girls, so nobody even batted an eye despite me being absolutely horrified that someone I live with would do something like that. Everyone was quick to reassure me that it's no big deal and it happens to all of us. They tried to tell Emma to chill out but she wasn't having it. She just went to her room and slammed the door.

For the next week, Emma didn't speak to me. She would loudly talk to all of our other roommates with no problem but the minute I tried speaking to her she would just walk away. A couple days ago I was laying in bed and Emma was the only other person home. She knocked on my door and when i opened it, she sheepishly asked me for a tampon, saying she woke up from a nap and bled through her shorts. How ironic. I laughed and told her no. (I didn't have any left, and I knew our other roommates had some somewhere so its not like she had nothing.)

Yesterday, she asked all of us if she could borrow a shirt because her clothes were in the washer. We all said no, and I even said I wouldn't want her to "light herself on fire" after touching any of my "nasty" stuff. She rolled her eyes and gave me a half assed apology, and I told her I don't want her touching or borrowing my stuff if that's the way she acts about a natural bodily function that SHE ALSO goes through. She called me childish and said she didn't see the big deal. Now there's this weird, passive aggressive vibe every time we're in the same room, and I'm wondering if I should just apologize or not. I talked to some friends, and they said I've got nothing to apologize for but I'm wondering if I overreacted.

So AITA?

the edits

quote:

Edit: Good lord, since so many people are seemingly so fascinated by my so called "impossible" pair of underwear that are over 10 years old, let me say this here instead of saying the same thing 10 times over in the comments like i have been:

My mom bought them for me when I was like 14 and they ended up being way too big for me so I only wore them in times of desparation, until recent years. Never thought I'd have to explain my UNDERWEAR to hundreds of strangers on the internet, but there's a first time for everything I suppose.

Edit #2:Okay, I just woke up and checked this for the first time in almost 9 hours. Yall realize you sound creepy as gently caress when you zero in on my loving UNDERWEAR right? This post was never meant to be about that, its about my nasty roommate that shamed me for something I have no control over. The amount of comments I have recieved that have attempted to shame me for the EXACT SAME THING EMMA DID is repulsive. I'm glad it happened to me and not some other young girl who maybe just got her period and doesnt know a drat thing about it yet. gently caress you.

I'm not "playing the victim," (as some of you have suggested) for calling people out that are asking me to send them photos of the pair in question. If you're really bent out of shape over what a 25 year old woman on the internet does with her belongings, you're weird. Sincerely you sound like a loving creep.

For the chicken nugget minis, I decided to do the math because it amuses me. There are 40 Chicken minis and the OP, 3 siblings, and 2parents make 6 people. So each person should get 6-7 minis in an equal split.Everyone had 2-3 to start, so we'll assume the OP had 3, 3 others had 3, and 2 others had 2. That uses up 16 to start, leaving 24. At this point, equal division would leave 4 more for each person. But OP ate 18 more of them at this point, leaving 6 for everyone else.

So in the end he ate 21, which is over half of the food intended to split between 6 people (and he was mad that he didn't get a 22nd one). That's really egregious, and while he acts surprised that people expected to split it roughly evenly, he also says that this is a tradition on trips - so he's seen the family eat the 40-nugget-biscuits over time before during a trip, it's not like this was the first time he's encountered it. It's what makes this into an 'everyone is pissed off' situation instead of just a minor mistake - if he accidentally ate too many and then said 'guys I'm sorry, I was watching a movie and they're just SO GOOD' (maybe with a 'let's stop and I'll pick something up to make up for it') the family could probably laugh it off or jokingly give him a hard time, but the fact that he's trying to say it was fine for him to eat over half the tray when he knows other people were planning to eat it is not going to go over well.

ExcessBLarg! posted:

That freshly thoroughly cooked, very salty chicken is going to be fine for half a day like they're planning. A restaurant can't leave it out that long (I think the limit is around 2 hours), but restaurant safety standards are significantly more stringent than what is likely to get a person sick.
