WIBTA For Sounding Off On My Future In-Laws For Leaving Our Rehearsal Dinner Early To Be With Their Friends?quote:I’m (M26) getting married to my fiancé (F28) this year. My fiancé’s parents are paying for the wedding, despite us insisting that we pay for it ourselves. They even threatened to cut her off when we said we were paying for it. In their own words “it’s not YOUR wedding, it’s OUR wedding” and everything they’ve done have been parent-zillas since. This has led to almost a year of frustration and tears on our end, along with her parents inviting more of their friends to the wedding than our own. AITA for keeping my BFF’s husband’s secret? quote:I have been friends with my BFF for decades. We’ll call her Julie. We are very close and tell each other everything. She has been with her husband for around 10 years. We get along great as friends. The three of us hang out often.

babypolis posted:I dunno, OP 1 is clearly trying his best. lovely situation for the wife for sure but I think they are working through it as best as they can. Agreed on the second OP tho I also 100% believe she told Charlotte/Kelly that they could dump her back with her parents because it fits the tone she has in her posts. Which is, uh. Not something I really find sympathetic or forgivable. I don't think she's obligated to try and be Charlotte/Kelly's mom, but it's pretty telling she describes this teenager as a master manipulator who tries to act innocent but is really flinging poison around everywhere when she's the one who responded to teenaged misbehavior with some pretty nasty verbal abuse and then tried to present herself as innocent for it. Like, I don't doubt this kid has grown up in a really fucky environment whose standards she's projecting onto her older cousin in an unhealthy way, and that's definitely something that needs to be addressed, but OP 1 sounds like... he has been working to try to address that via therapy and support. So I'm not like giving him equal blame. The situation with OP 2 just really sucks.

It feels like, in that situation, wife was somewhat forced by husband into a situation she didn't want. But then.. she did nothing about it but act lovely and spiteful? Like, sure, husband seemed to disregard her feelings and desires in this situation. That's lovely. He likely feels justified in forcing this to happen because he's trying to save a teenage girl from a bad situation which could have ended in tragedy. Wife didn't want to have to deal with this and didn't sign up for this and feels like her feelings are being trampled all for a teenage girl. I totally get if she doesn't have the bandwidth or desire to deal with it. In that case, she should have gotten out of the situation immediately instead of growing mean and spiteful over it. It's a really lovely situation and I feel really bad for both of the children for being caught in the middle of this.

SyNack Sassimov posted:I had been intending to rewatch How I Met Your Mother because I trailed off after season 3 or 4 or something, so initially I was pretty annoyed that it just got spoiled in this thread, but then reading through the posts I think they were actually a public service alerting me to not waste my time rewatching out of some sense of needing to complete the series. Only sociopaths watch war movies.

I understand feeling like it's really unfair that your only options are to basically divorce and co-parent or deal with an entire extra kid she didn't want and doesn't like, but seething on the situation until she explodes on the kid is the exact wrong option, and it sounds like she's trying to do extra damage on her way out now that she's decided on a divorce as an extra 'gently caress you'. She doesn't have a responsibility to raise Charlotte/Kelly if she doesn't want to, but as an adult she does have a responsibility to not deliberately re-traumatize a teenager that's a survivor of severe abuse just because she's mad at her husband. It's that simple!

PetraCore posted:Yeah, basically it's not wrong for her to feel like she got trampled, but her taking it out on a child is uncalled for. Even in her telling of how things went, the kid is 16 and it sounds like she's been living with them for years, so she's definitely been projecting a lot of spite onto a kid who can't help being a kid and can't help growing up in an abusive environment and being traumatized. Absolutely. She's not wrong in feeling upset, but she's very wrong in how she handled her anger.

Why are people writing Charlotte/Kelly when they're only referring to the girl in one of the two stories They're completely separate stories btw, not the same story from two perspectives. A lot of things may be similar but the first OP has had custody for 3 years whereas 2nd OP says her husband brought Kelly in 14 months ago.

Wasn’t Courtney Cox the only one to get to star in a (kinda) successful series after Friends? Joey was a flop, Jennifer Aniston just movies to romcoms, Lisa Kudrow honestly hasn’t really been in much since, and the other two get a few movie roles. Oh wait, Matt Leblanc was in Episodes (as himself). Okay series, if not a cult classic.

WIBTA if I dump my big, gay horsequote:My [F32] close friend John [M34] and I recently bought a horse, Lenny, together. It's been a lot of work but we've figured out how to share the responsibility and made a flexible schedule so we can take him for rides when we want without stepping on each others' toes. The one place where our opinions differ though, is that John sees Lenny as a close companion but I admit that he's more of an investment. I found a trainer at a local stud farm that thought Lenny would make for a great line, but we found out immediately that he prefers the company of other males.

PetraCore posted:Don't horses often use artificial insemination to avoid the risk of injury to the stud or the mare? It doesn't seem like a gay horse would be much of an impediment to that, you'd just need to change up the scents at the humping station or whatever. Racing horses aren’t allowed to be bred using artificial insemination.

PetraCore posted:Huh. Is that to avoid, uh, semen scams? Since people pay so much for studding. It's to prop up the cost of stud services and to prevent gene-pool-collapse. See, using AI a single stallion could father hundreds or even thousands of foals all over the country. Without it he's going to be limited to a couple of dozen, max. The second scenario means that horses that aren't multiple-championship-winners still get used for stud, rather than every single foal in the country coming from a handful of sires.

next day coffee is my jam. I don't bother microwaving it. The medicine gets in my system faster if it's room temp. Just down the hatch, right away. I don't actually like coffee that much and I've since bought a bottle of 100mg caffeine pills and I have one of those first thing in the morning instead

"We adopted her" in husband's version is such a weird thing to change. Why give a completely fake version of the story if you're trying to find out whether you're an rear end in a top hat? If you give a fake version you'll get a fake answer. Even if all you want is validation, it's fake validation. What's the point?!
