AITA for missing my son's birth to see the eclipse?quote:My (36M) wife (30F) gave birth to our beautiful son yesterday afternoon. However, things have been icy between us ever since my decision to not give up my plan to view the total solar eclipse to drive to a hospital while my wife was giving labor. For context, I live two hours away from the point of totality, and have been planning this trip for weeks. I offered my wife to come with me, but she declined as she was not feeling well and did not really care to see the eclipse. When I was about an hour away, my wife called me and told me that she believed she was going into labor. I was doubtful, since she was only 34 weeks, and asked her if she was sure it wasn't just braxton hicks contractions. She really wanted me to turn around in case the baby was coming but I told her I couldn't because I was almost there, and I wasn't going to give up this experience when I wasn't even sure the baby would be born today. So many bangers in that story. "My wife should know that I support her even if I'm not physically there with her"

At least have enough respect for your wife to lie and tell her you are on the way back immediately, then when you arrive at the hospital way too late say you got pulled over because you were speeding to get back to the hospital but he let you off with a warning

Found an update to an ancient post with an absolute brain genius of a man. 9 months ago AITAH for rejecting my boyfriends proposal even though I've been dropping hints that i want to married. quote:My(26f) and boyfriend (30m) have been dating for three years we don't live together cause we both want to get married first because our parents wouldn't agree to cohabiting before marriage. I've been fairly obvious about wanting to get married and my boyfriend has picked up on it. Last week we went to my great aunt's funeral although i didn't know her very well I was still upset and it was really hard to see how much it hurt my mother. So after the funeral we went to a hall that we rented to cater to the other mourners and to remember her my boyfriend saw this as a chance to propose. This left me mortified and everyone was staring at us for using this to make it about ourselves. I said no told he got angry and walked off saying that i'm the one who wants to get married so i shouldn't care where he proposes he also said that if i truly loved him I would say yes. He's ignoring me right now and won't give me a chance to explain. In any other scenario I would say yes but I didn't think it was the right place or time.I'm wondering if I'm the rear end in a top hat because I rejected him even though I want to get married when I asked my co worker she agreed that what I did was wrong but want some more opinions from people who don't know me.So,AITAH. UPDATE: AITAH for rejecting my boyfriends proposals even though I was dropping hints that I wanted to get married? quote:Alot has happened since my first post.Firstly, me and my boyfriend have since broken up. This was for a multitude of reasons the biggest one being that he cheated on me. My former boyfriend and i had not been living together but I did spend most my time staying at his place as I had a roommate and he never.However when I went to visit him his friend told me that he had been cheating on me and had gotten another girl pregnant.This crushed me cause we had been dating for nearly 4 years.This lead to us breaking up.

3D Megadoodoo posted:If anyone told me "my wife is a lousy gently caress" I'd not want them to talk to me ever again. One thing my wife and I agreed on while we were dating is that we would never speak negative about the other person to people we know. That's just opening the door to negative resentment. We agreed that as soon as someone starts feeling like it is okay to speak negatively about their partner to other people, you're no longer addressing the issue and, in fact, you're dragging other people into a problem the two of you should be dealing with together. It's such a boomer mindset imo. "THE OLE BALL AND CHAIN!!!"

The closest I have ever come to complaining about my wife to a third party IRL in our 14 years of marriage was once her own mother grumbled about one of her picadillos and I did not argue. It's probably related to growing up in a house where both my parents' favorite subject was how much they were unhappy with the other.

tactlessbastard posted:The closest I have ever come to complaining about my wife to a third party IRL in our 14 years of marriage was once her own mother grumbled about one of her picadillos and I did not argue. Yeah, for me and my wife, we like each other and as such, we wouldn't want to make the other person look bad in front of other people. When you complain about your partner to a friend or something, the friend is naturally going to take your side and it is only going to make the situation worse. The only reason I can understand bringing an outside person into the situation is in a mediation sort of way. But even for something like that - see a therapist. I guess the reason I don't get it is, as mentioned, my wife and I actually like each other and it sure as gently caress seems like that's an uncommon thing in relationships nowadays. There is a couple we're friends with that it seems like their favorite past time is to bitch about each other to whoever will listen. To the point my wife and I have, multiple times, wondered "Do they even like each other? Why are they married?" I hate to stereotype but it feels like such as cis-het boomer mindset. Gotta bitch about my spouse! The ole ball 'n chain is holding me back from achieving greatness!

I know I've told stories about my ex-wife in here but it's been more than a decade since the divorce. While we were together I never complained about her to other people, it just never even occurred to me as anything other than a lovely thing to do. And I've worked at places where it was a bunch of guys and it was just the norm to do the whole "ball and chain" routine as mentioned earlier, each idiot trying to top the last with how awful their wife or girlfriend is.

I think there's probably some nuance to the complaining about SO thing, I think there's a big gulf between just randomly bitching or making fun of your SO vs like saying to a person who knows both of you like "I'm having a hard time with ____" that involves your SO, or even just like venting about them being unreasonable sometime if you just need reassurance you're not being the rear end in a top hat if you have a friend that knows both of you and would be honest with you I'm not sure "keep absolutely everything negative involving your SO to yourself or a therapist" is really realistic or healthy but certainly just like insulting your SO is bad I think everyone agrees on that

It also ignores that a lot of people don't have access to therapy due to cost/location/etc and maybe a trusted friend is the only person they can talk to. In the grand scheme I don't think it's terrible to vent to a friend about your SO as long as you're not slamming them and instead looking for perspective on the situation you're dealing with. The biggest issue is making sure your friend is someone trustworthy and not like that one guy's Dad who will give you advice that leads to you being single and homeless because you pushed everyone away.

hawowanlawow posted:as long as your friends don't think they're therapists themselves, which is hella common these days When it comes to the "trusted friend," it also depends if they are a friend of one individual or of the couple. If one person is bitching to a friend who doesn't often interact with the other person, then the friend is very likely going to take the side of the person bitching, even if they're wrong. That's just natural bias. And that's not going to help the situation.

I feel like most people don't think they're therapists per se but probably would try to help beyond just saying "that sucks" in like whatever natural way people try to help, whether it's offering reassurance or just their honest assessment of the situation or whatever what kind of behavior in that situation do you think is inappropriate?

We don't even know that she was actually complaining though. It could easily have been something like "oh god remember that rear end in a top hat Brad I used to go out with, best sex of my life but I can't believe I put up with his other crap for so long, so glad I got out of that and have a decent boyfriend now" kind of thing and friend decided to poo poo-stir.
