I'm curious how many people are actually following through with divorcing their spouse for not losing weight. It seems like there are plenty of married fat people which indicates to me that while people talk a big game, they aren't nearly as likely to follow through.

Most of them are in the same boat, and have the self awareness to know they don't have a chance at getting anyone hotter.

I've actually seen the reverse happen; my wife and I went to a wedding of a friend of hers a few years back. My wife told me that bride's ex broke up with her after she lost a lot of weight from bariatric surgery. Her and a long time friend of hers (who knew her when she was big) got together and ended up getting married. At the wedding, she had managed to keep the weight off for several years at that point and must've had surgery to remove excess skin because before my wife told me the story I had no idea she was so big before, through I did find it strange that all her bridesmaids (sisters, cousins) were 2x as heavy as she was.

Everyone is terrified of being alone, and for as hard as losing weight is, it's nothing compared to overcoming the inertia of an unhappy and dispassionate but comfortable and familiar relationship

I think it's that operation where you greedily turn your eyes towards Rome's vast riches even though you had a goddamn deal with emperor Valens to keep the peace along the Danube, Katherine. MMOs don't star so prominently in this one, but they do set the tone quite nicely.

Stupid phone autocomplete. Bariatric surgery is what I meant. Lady's boyfriend was fine with her being huge but after she lost the weight he lost interest and broke up with her (also cheated on her when she got thin as well beforehand). I was really surprised he'd be so stupid; she pretty much made a magazine-level before/after transformation and was maintaining the weight loss but I guess that made him somehow insecure? But I had thought there was some  about how the attractiveness of a man's partner establishes some kind of status of the man himself? I dunno.

What are the (legal) consequences of disconnecting the Comcast lines that run through my yard?quote:I've been without internet for a week and Comcast insists that no one is available until Monday to fix the severed line in my yard. This is after a week of phone calls and someone actually coming out but not fixing the issue. quote:Felony charges and prison time for tampering with a utility device OP posted:So now I have to wonder what the chances are of a jury of my peers finding me guilty of snapping because of Comcast's lovely customer service and unscrewing a few cables... That's certainly a jury I'd love to sit on... "You don't have anyone to send out when my internet's broke, but you DO when someone illegally vandalizes your equipment and shuts down a neighbourhood? Very interesting.  Guess we know who the real winner is." I say as I'm handcuffed and led into a police vehicle

If it's just some random small town telephone pole, that would probably actually work and I vote he should do it. I mean, if he's gonna do that he should just run his own coax instead to fix the issue but whatever!!!

Not having a potential enabler of an ex probably helped in this regard.

Like, on a scale of how bad it is to do something, it's better to dump your partner and leave them than to convince them not to lose weight to keep you.

In other words, you have to learn to stop packing it with cake before they'll even think about doing surgery. Try not being a jackass, please.

It may technically be theft because the teller didn't accept the payment, and/or because its illegal to sell to minors/someone who doesn't furnish an ID, they couldn't complete the transaction as a matter of law. At the very least, its a Minor in Possession charge.

Teenagers are cheating in either subforum. TBH probably depends on where he is as to what practical follow up there is. In a podunk town it's a contest between boredome and laziness whether the local constabulary will pull the security camera run the plate and go give him a ticket if the clerk even bothers reporting it.

My [26F] Jewish-German BF [28 M] of 6 months resents me for being Germanquote:My Jewish boyfriend, who's not religious and identifies himself as "culturally Jewish" is giving me a hard time for my family background. It's not like his family is pressing him into anything as they are all non-believers and don't have a problem with him dating a non-Jewish girl at all. My relationship is a 24/7 Nuremberg trial even though my boyfriend is also descended from a Wehrmacht soldier, am I overreacting for being upset? Was I out of line for having a death in the family and being sad about it? Submitted by the same person but unfortunately removed: My BF [28M] of 6 months asked his ex to help him with ironing his shirts

Relatives suing for third-party custody of my stepson and say it's on our behalf.quote:Short backstory: My husband has a 9 year old son from a previous marriage. He and his ex-wife have joint custody, but due to the distance between our houses, we see his son every other weekend during the school year and every weekend in the summer. He and his ex-wife are amicable and co-parent without problems. His family hates the ex-wife and have been at odds with her since they were engaged. We all live in different suburbs of a city that straddles two different states; the ex-wife and his family live in one state and we live in the other. We're all about a half hour drive from one another.
