Midnight Voyager posted:Oh yeah, she's clearly a giant rear end in a top hat about it. He should leave. But just not talking about it as a problem kinda sucks too. When your GF starts talking about wanting a cat, that's when you say "I'm allergic" or "I do not want a cat at all." Oh, I totally agree. It sounds like he went full avoidant and was hoping she'd eventually drop it so he'd get his way, which is also a lovely way of handling things when your partner makes it clear something's important to them. I do have to question her recollection of things when she starts positioning everything like she's being completely reasonable and he's the problem, because she decided she had to adopt four cats at once because they're all brothers and sisters.

AITAH for refusing to consider stopping our divorce after my ex admitted her "psychic" friend lied about me having an affair? quote:I met my wife, Rhona, when we were in college together. I made the obviously terrible assumption that the fact she was in post secondary education meant she had a modicum of common sense. We started dating our senior year and after job hunting settled on moving back to her home town after graduating. DrBouvenstein fucked around with this message at 04:37 on May 4, 2024 |

my favorite part is that her parents were all in on her insanity too so really at least he’s not leaving her without a support network

Rockman Reserve posted:my favorite part is that her parents were all in on her insanity too so really at least he’s not leaving her without a support network Well the theories floated in the reddit thread is that they AREN'T in on her insanity, and perhaps hired a PI to prove her wrong so she'd move out/get back with who they thought would be a great son-in-law. I'm curious WHY the "psychic" friend told the lie in the first place. I assume most people who claim to be psychic know they're full of poo poo and love BSing people for attention and drama; so my theory is when she read OPs palm, she picked up that he didn't care about it/knew it was BS, so she decided to get some revenge.

I can't speak to this friend but I used to think I was amazing at reading people. The supernatural "she moved her ring finger when she said that which means blah blah blah" hoo-hah. Took me a while to realize what I was actually good at was making up stories to fit whatever I noticed, and the relation to reality was completely untethered.

I had a boss who was an older Romanian lady with a thick accent. When we'd go out to eat she'd offer to read the fortune of the newest person using their tea or coffee remains, make a big show out of the meanings of different patterns, get them involved in her detailed reading, then go "I'm making this up lol" and laugh at the new guy

Pope Corky the IX posted:I know the person wasn’t a minor but it’s still predatory behavior. "predatory" doesn't go anywhere near far enough to describe a 35 year old grown man bullying a visibly nervous and apprehensive 20 year old girl, into having sex with him for the first time, then presenting her with a bullshit, petty printed out list of her "mistakes. "Abusive"? Yep. "hosed up"? yep. She needs to get away. Coz apart from all the obvious arseholery and abuse, a bloke who is prepared to go "You, girl almost half my age whose virginity I recently took. Here's a list of how I expect, nay mandate you to gently caress me better. I have printed it out for you to study up for next time." is capable of insane horrors.

Aita for buying a “cheap” wedding dress for my weddingquote:My sister got married 2 years ago in a big lavash wedding her husband is a doctor and she’s a forensic accountant so they can afford it. The wedding cost maybe 50000 euros. I hate weddings and I think they’re the most excruciatingly boring events to have to live through but I guess that it is part of life becoming an adult and your loved ones start getting married around you😂 I mean you can survive a boring night. But for me the more expensive the wedding is, the more boring it is, the more pretentious, tinier portions of food etc. yghh. My sister’s dress cost 6000 euros.

mystes posted:I thought it was a slur and it seems widely considered to be one so it's probably best to avoid it, but recently, while I'm not sure it's true, I have also heard people say that there are actually some specific groups of Romani people who use that name and don't consider it a slur Since he mentions that he works with Roma I think the point he's making is that the person is using the wrong term while claiming to be from that group in order to lend their fortunetelling more legitimacy.

ApplesandOranges posted:A little nitpicking but isn't there a slur for Romani people in that post The poster calls it out as something they don't think is correct. I can 100% tell that my one Roma friend would probably tear into me if I was dumb enough to call them that. Unfortunately most people, especially in the US, don't have exposure to that ethnic group and have never learned proper the name. So yeah there's a slur and it might could be censored but he immediately flags it as bad, even if he did go on to repeat it. I've met Roma people and I've met people who say they're the G word, and so far as I can tell the first is a legit ethnic group and the second is a buncha dumb assholes. Despite the reputation the Roma won't rob you blind. The white lady calling herself a G!@#$y you gotta watch your weed.
