LimburgLimbo posted:Depends on the state but in most cases that's an open and shut case of brandishing. In states with open carry, which WA is one of, merely displaying a gun is not "brandishing". So if I begin to feel uneasy, removing my gun from concealment and cocking it would not be considered brandishing, assuming I don't point it or verbally state I'm going to shoot someone. But it's a fine line between taking a gun out of a holster and holding it at one's side and pointing it at someone, one that Methy McMethface might not have paid close attention to. I suspect what's more likely is they asked him to leave something behind while he went to the ATM (such as a DL) and he refused and went legal beagle, then pulled his gun

It sounds like her parents are racist enough that if their daughter had only ever dated one black dude they'd have an issue with it. Like how would it come up, does the daughter openly say she only wants to date black guys? e: though yeah specifically fetishizing one race isn't really a good thing it just seems odd that at 18 her grandparents would even know about it beyond "has dated a black person" ArbitraryC fucked around with this message at 17:34 on May 28, 2017 |

I [30F] found out the real reason why my dad [51M] "couldn't afford" to give any gifts for my newborn daughter, and he might be cheating on my stepmom...Non-Romantic So my husband [30m] and I just had our first child a couple weeks ago. Our families were really happy for us. He and my mom divorced when I was a kid and I lived mostly with my mom, seeing him a few times a year for visits. We've never been that close but not on bad terms either. He married another woman (I believe she's 40-45 y.o) maybe 8 years ago. They ended up moving a few hours away so I don't see them much now except some holidays. He had told me apologetically before the baby was due that he probably wouldn't be able to afford much for her/us because he'd taken a pay cut at work and they were struggling with having enough to pay bills each month. At the time I thought this was weird, his job doesn't seem like the sort where that happens but I believed him and said I understood and it was fine, just come and see the baby at some point after she's here. I also offered to help him financially if he needed but he declined. Now today something happened that made me realize he was lying. I have a friend who lives in their city and she sent me a screenshot of something on another girl's Facebook page. It was a picture of that girl with a guy and the caption "The amazing man who's helping me upgrade my chest lol" or something like that. My friend was asking if that was my dad and it was (but he doesn't have an FB). I asked what was going on, she said this girl she has on her FB had been posting over the past few weeks about getting a boob job and how excited she was. Turns out my father knows her and is paying for it. Oh and she's also apparently 21 and in college. Sooo I was pretty grossed out and pissed, he's got enough money to throw on this but somehow can't afford a small thing for the baby. And looks to be cheating on my stepmom. I showed my husband and he suggested I call my stepmom and figure out if he'd lied to me about the paycut, that way I'd have more evidence. So I did and when I mentioned it she had no idea what I was talking about, his job is fine. She also said he'd told her he bought gifts for the baby and was mailing them to me in both their names. Obviously I never got anything. She didn't know why he'd lie to both of us but apologized and said she would ask him about it. I guess that would have been the time to tell her about the picture but I just didn't know how. I know it sounds dumb and lovely and I know she deserves to know if he's cheating. But how do you break something like that to someone. And I feel just kind of stupid like my evidence is a picture someone posted on Facebook? It could be someone he's friends with joking around or something. I mean I know there's PROBABLY something going on but… I keep second guessing myself. So anyway we just ended the call after that and now I'm struggling with whether I should tell her and if so how... Or should I confront him first? I'm also still just feeling upset that he doesn't seem to care about me or his granddaughter. He's only called once since she was born. It's not about getting gifts as much as him not showing any kind of interest. But apparently that's because he's more interested in buying some college chick a new rack. How do I handle this stupid poo poo? TL;DR my dad lied and said he couldn't give anything for my new baby because of financial difficulties but he's not in any financial hardship, he's instead paying for a much younger girl's boob job. I have some evidence but I don't feel like it's a hundred percent solid and am not sure if/how I should confront him or tell my stepmom what he's doing. I'm also just mad and disgusted.

I [18 M] broke up with my girlfriend of two years [17 F] yesterday and now her dad is threatening me. I don't know how to deal with this So we've been in a relationship for 2 years, it's been a good one but the past year has been an absolute bad experience. Huge fights over nothing, too much jealousy, she was being too demanding, bossy etc. I couldn't take it anymore and yesterday after she begged me for an hour not to do it, I explained to her for hours that it's the best thing for us both and we should go our separate ways. She kind of understood (or so I thought) and went home. Today is my birthday and I've been getting a lot of birthday wishes via phone calls. I saw her dad calling me so I thought maybe he wants to wish me a happy birthday. Oh boy was I wrong. He proceeded to tell me that It's all my fault, and that his daughter is crying for hours and he thinks I found someone else and I'm not enough of a man to be honest. Then he started with threats like "You better solve this issue or else" or "I don't know what I'm going to do if this doesn't resolve". He's kind of dangerous too, so I have no idea how to deal with this. I don't know what to do, I'm not in love with her anymore. I don't want to get back together under any circumstances, especially after this. What am I gonna do reddit? tl;dr: I broke up with my girlfriend because she was driving me insane, now her dad is threatening me and forcing my hand to get back together.

My friend of four years (M/16) told me that if I (F/16) switched from Apple to Samsung it would be a deal breaker between us...help? So my friend and I have known each other for some time, and we've always been the best of friends, as he considers me the closets of all his other friends. In the time period of us knowing each other, I've always had an iPhone (6s), so we iMessage and Facetime. Recently, though, my phone has been breaking (glitching out, but is still useable as long as I don't over work it) and I've been looking at newer phones to buy. I really like the looks of the Samsung 8, and told him about it a couple days ago. My friend told me that if I switched to Android it would be a deal breaker in our friendship and we probably couldn't be friends after that. This kind of hurt my feelings because it seems shallow and not something he should worry about. I would still own my iPhone and be able to Facetime him, it just wouldn't be my main phone and would only work on WiFi. Does anyone have advice on how to handle a situation like this? I really don't want to lose a friend just because of the phone model I buy. Thank you to anyone who replies! TL;DR = My best friend said if I switch from iPhone to Samsung our friendship would be over.

Should I [31/f] stay with my husband [32/m] if he loves me but doesn't find me attractive unless I lose weight?quote:Together almost a decade, gained a lot of weight in past two years (never been too small, but got down to an 8 before pregnant). Emotional eater-working on that problem aggressively now. Husband says he loves me and wants to stay married, but I'm so hurt and it's wrecking my confidence and messing with my head. Is it a big enough reason to divorce?

Me [33 F] with guy I'm dating [28 M] 2 months, he forced me to put sunglasses on We were out on a walk, and it was really sunny. I didn't have any sunglasses, and he did -- he's a really caring person, always concerned about my welfare -- so he insisted I take his. I stated that it wasn't necessary, that it's really all right, I don't need them. He kept on insisting until he actually FORCED the sunglasses on my face. I mean, he didn't have to use a lot of force b/c I didn't put up that much resistance - I didn't want it to be a bigger deal than it had to be lol. Plus he's a really tall, strong guy so he really didn't have to. It just made me think. Is this a red flag? There have been other indications of controlling behaviour but not terribly bad ones, just overconcern with my well-being - i.e., he insists I put slippers on when I come over to his house, even though I neither want or need to! Volunteers me for things. I dunno, they're not big things so I feel silly even enumerating them, but something does feel off. Sometimes I just feel like this is a father-daughter relationship, which is weird since I'm older than him... other times I feel a huge weight of responsibility for him. And the whole sunglasses thing was just weird... he's a really likeable and sweet guy, which is why I gave him a pass on it... but I am starting to feel controlled! Plus, if I try to imagine any of my friends' SOs doing that to them, I see the weirdness and wrongness of it.

They need to deflate their problems down to a more manageable level if they want to keep that relationship buoyant. The last thing he should be doing is harpooning it with craigslist. I think relationship counselling is the only thing that's going to stop that relationship bursting like a balloon.

I'm a big believer that you expect to date the partner you picked. So if you start dating someone who says from the start they don't want kids and get butthurt two years into marriage they don't want kids... that's on you. OTOH if you start dating an attractive person who exercises thrice a week and they stop exercising and gain 50lbs... it's valid to dump them. Now, you'd probably want to raise it delicately first ("We should go running together" vs "Your weight is really up there - better get it down!"), or maybe just dump her with the old "it's not you, it's me", but yeah Redditor should dump his GF if she's gaining with no end in sight and won't take reasonable steps to stem the tide.

My father recently passed away and I went into a depression. I also gained about 15 pounds. I began to notice my boyfriend become more and more distant to the point that he barely talks to me. He recently told me its because he doesn't find me attractive anymore. When I let him know that I gained weight as a result of my fathers death, and that I was angry at him for saying that to me, he told me he didn't think it was fair that I was getting mad at him for intentionally letting myself go.
