I would say "assurances" are concrete, like "I will accept your proposal after we move out of your parents' house" or "after I get a job in my new career" or "after I/you/we get therapy for a long-standing problem". they're not the same as wishy-washy "we're engaged but don't tell anyone" or "I'll accept at a later date, no explanation why"idiotsavant posted:Really wonder how strong the dudes “hints” were if his gf of 4 years froze up like a deer in the headlights. It’s 2024, it’s ok to ask your committed partner “so, hey, uh, getting married what do you think” and have a conversation. he did say they had discussions about marriage and kids as well - the hints were just about the imminent proposal

1100 between 6 people isn't like crazy bottle popping numbers but I'd consider it on the high end. With it being pounds though it might be more understandable.

E: re: the birthday dinner, he did say that he invited them all out so I can see how they might think he intended to pay. If I invite you to a party, I assume I am paying for the event. I am pretty sure we have seen similar posts from the other POV where e.g.a wealthy family invited their son-in-law to a dinner party at a restaurant he could never afford on his own, and he felt blindsided at having to pay for his meal. That said, she should absolutely have clarified at some point if he was covering the whole shout. wheatpuppy fucked around with this message at 18:41 on Apr 1, 2024 |

RenegadeStyle1 posted:1100 between 6 people isn't like crazy bottle popping numbers but I'd consider it on the high end. With it being pounds though it might be more understandable. From the vibe it also kind of seems like she may have intentionally done it as a way to show of and/or a "relationship test" type thing which is kind of icky to me If they were sharing finances and it wasnt really "him" paying and she just felt like it was the right thing to do to pay for everyone who came to her birthday dinner I would feel more sympathetic to her. I don't know how much they're paying but $1100 is just a really big unexpected expense so I feel like this falls under something that needs to be discussed in advanced just based on that mystes fucked around with this message at 18:42 on Apr 1, 2024 |

I'm gonna start coming up with hosed up relationship tests: for TikTok, just to see if people do them. Test 1: disappear for two days, then turn your phone back on, and explain to your boyfriend that your entire identity is a lie. In reality, you work for Argentinian intelligence, your cover has been blown, and you've had to return to Argentina. Tell him you totally understand if he doesn't wanna join you because he would have to turn his life completely upside down and he'd be a wanted man on the run and that you can't guarantee his safety. If he drops everything, renounces his American citizenship, and books a flight to Argentina, he's a keeper. Otherwise, he doesn't really love you. Test 2: call your boyfriend in a panic tell him you messed up and you're being held by kidnappers demanding $40,000 in cash by the end of the day. If he brings the money to the abandoned warehouse, he's a keeper. if not, he doesn't love you (or he doesn't have $40,000).

Mx. posted:I told my girlfriend I didn't care about one of her interests and that completely destroyed our conversations My husband likes trains, specifically steam engines and models thereof. He is well on his way to becoming a "train guy." And, I very much am not. However, if he wants to talk for three hours about trains and steam engines and model building and more... I will sit there and listen and nod and smile because it makes him happy. It sounds like that was where the girlfriend was with his hobbies. Now, she's reflecting the energy he gave about her interests back, and he's just now starting to realize how it hurts. They might be able to get past it, but he's got to grow up really fast for that to happen and stop blaming her for not coddling him anymore. Midnight Voyager posted:Look, if I am in any circumstance where I have to tell someone "I am not your girlfriend," I have been alerted to the fact that something is not on the level with the person I am talking to. Either they are hallucinating the relationship or something. I don't just let that pass. And if they go dead silent after that, I may suspect they have been hurt by what I said. And if I somehow did and that person starts avoiding me, maybe I put together 1 and 1 and make 2. And if somehow none of that was in my notice, I don't find out the other person is cheating, with the words "Well, we're not a couple, so I'm free to do whatever," and STILL not think "Hey, is this tied to the only thing I have said to them in a week?" These two people are both idiots though. Him for stringing her along, which you KNOW he was doing. He wanted to have her around for all the girlfriend stuff (like breakfast in bed and companionship) but without committing to it. He just didn't expect her to go do her own thing. And she was great for doing so. I think where she became an idiot was for pretending to be sick and then being broken hearted when he actually got mad she went out. "Now that I KNOW we aren't together, I'm crying all the time." I feel like this is shaping up to be one of the stupid toxic relationships where they break up every 6 months anyhow. Mx. posted:AITAH? My (39F) Ex husband (37M) is insisting I change my last name back to my maiden name because his new fiancé (24F) feels it will be awkward for her and I to have the same last name. AITAH for refusing to change it? I hope OP gets embossed stationary with a bolded and raised imprint of the last name to send every bit of mail to her ex and his new wife from here until the kids are grown and flown. The new wife is a woman who should NOT marry a man with kids, and the ex is a POS too. My husband had 4 kids when we met, and while I don't think the kids being unhappy would (or should) have immediately ended it, it definitely and reasonably would have slowed our relationship down considerably, not just because of him and how his kids feel but because I would have needed to consider how blending my life with his was going to go with 4 unhappy children. It really would have mattered to both of us WHY the kids were unhappy. This new wife is determined to make it a competition, the last name is her current "win condition." Their marriage is going to suck because she will never be able to accept that she's a second wife.

I don't think she was crying because she was "broken hearted" that he left, I think she was crying because she was still just upset about the whole situation and it was hard for her to hold it in for the whole conversation. I don't think it is shaping up to be any sort of relationship, because the relationship is over. mystes fucked around with this message at 19:41 on Apr 1, 2024 |

People are going to hold a grudge a lot longer and think a lot less of the person who kicked a child out of their parent’s funeral than they are of a person who didn’t dress “right” for it, and for a lot of good reasons.

Hughlander posted:Daughter not child. She’s 26. That actually makes the OP seem even worse. Why is it your job to police another adult’s fashion? Just let people form their own opinions. Instead, OP gave them all a big BUT: “She shouldn’t have worn that outfit, BUT that’s no reason to kick her out.” OP set themselves up to look worse than sister when all they had to do was nothing at all but coexist.

AITAH for wanting my gf to overcome her ick?quote:Le me (27m) has a wonderful gf (25f) and sometimes we have some sort of squabble. We have been together for about 2 years, so we are still trying to find our groove in some situations. Especially at home. I ralely initiate dinner, breakfast or anything related. I know she likes it when I stand behind the stove, but I do not do it that often. Call me childish, however, I simply do not get what im wishing for as a return. So over the time I got less and less motivation to go create a love dove dinner type of thing and be romantic.

funeral OP in comments posted:She hasn’t talked to him in forever and didn’t even say goodbye to him on his death bed OK, I might be coming around some on this one. The original post said that emo daughter wasn't close to her mom or sister but conspicuously did not say anything about her relationship with her dad, but if she actually didn't have much of a relationship with him then I'd be less inclined to cut her slack. I still don't think kicking her out over dress code was really necessary but I have a hard time getting up in arms about it.
