As a cishet man, I could not stop talking about growing my hair out before, during and after the process. It was the highlight of that year.

"How do you think I'd look with long hair."

"I'm thinking about growing my hair out."

"Yeah, I haven't had a haircut in months."

"Look how long my hair is now!"

"Yeah, it was time to get a trim..."

"Remember when my hair was long. I miss those days."

Was this wedding in the winter? Because I can think of few things less comfortable than wearing a sweater or puffy jacket to a beach in Hawaii in summer.

I mean, today in Honolulu it's going to be between 68 and 80 F so it's not cold even in January. The main islands are all in the tropical zone. Sweaters and puffy jackets and wearing high heels at the beach (but not for the fattys) sounds like a great tropical beach wedding.

Hey, you know what, she at least did the thing she should've just done first and talked to him. Society fucks us all up about what we should expect out of men and women so just opening up and talking about it is good.

AITA for staging an intervention of sorts for my best friend and calling my brother possessive?

quote:

One of my (23F) best friends since nursery, Celeste (23F) has been seeing my brother Henry (29M) for almost a year. In that year, Celeste and I went from hanging out at least 3x a week and talking on the phone everyday for at least two hours, to hanging out once a week and calling maybe once a week for an hour as well.

She hangs out with Henry everyday because they practically live together now. I’ve known Henry all my life, I don’t find him interesting enough to hang out with daily. From what we’ve seen on instagram, Celeste also hangs out with Henry’s friends girlfriends quite a lot after work. I used to think Celeste’s change was because of her demanding job but its not.

Its not just me she’s stopped hanging out with in our friend group. We all discussed Celeste’s change in behaviour in our private group chat without her and came to the conclusion that she’s just acting like this because Henry is her first boyfriend, her first kiss, her first everything. I believe she’s infatuated with him and not really valuing her friends because of it. Celeste is the sweetest person, so we thought she wasn’t doing it on purpose and decided to be nice about our concerns.

Yesterday was my best friend Eve’s birthday dinner, we had a private room and decided to do a kind of intervention for Celeste. She was pretty much trapped because Lynn had driven us all to dinner so she had to listen to what we had to say.

I started by saying it was nice to be hanging out with her and how we’d been doing it less and less since Celeste got into a relationship. She responded by saying that she’s the only one that works, she’s tired after work and just likes to chill, watch movies then sleep.

Lynn told her she can do all those things at our weekend sleep overs which she’s been missing for 2 months straight. Celeste got quiet so we just kept going on about how she was hurting us and how when she’s single again because Henry isn’t that type for a long term thing she might not have us to lean on or hang out with because she’s pushing us away. We might have went overboard by calling her some things but we were just trying to get our point across. She responded by claiming she doesn’t like how I talk about Henry, my own brother and how she gets tired of going out drinking like its the only thing we do. She did say she’ll do better and she’s sorry.

Later Henry called and went off on me for ‘attacking’ Celeste, he could’ve called everyone involved but just targeted me for some reason. He called me an AH, jealous and so many other things.

So I called him possessive and controlling because it’s his fault Celeste won’t hang out with us as much. I told her he’s acting like an abuser by isolating her from her friends who are her main support system after her family. Of course he told everyone in our family and now I’m being called anything but a child of God. AITA? Or does ESH?

My post-college friend doesn't have time for our weekly sleep-overs or 15+ hours on the phone every week! Clearly the problem is her romantic life time for an intervention to save her from her abuser!

There are definitely situations where an abuser isolates their partner from their circle of friends and family. "My friend is now hanging out with her boyfriend's friend group, we should convince her he's going to dump her anyway and threaten to not welcome her back when he does" is probably not one of those.

Seems like Celeste just doesn't find their friend group interesting enough to talk to daily, idk

Also is it just me or is weekly hangouts and a 1 hour weekly call more than reasonable for adult friends? I don't hang out with my friends even that much lol

Not just that, but they are all 23 and Celeste is the only one with a job and a steady romantic partner.

I think a weekly game night (also canceled sometimes when people were busy) is the most frequently I've done anything with friends post-college, when the friend group wasn't largely living in the same group of buildings. That just sounds tiring.

Add that to the fact that she finds her brother boring, there is a good chance that Celeste is spending time with people with vastly different interests for the first time and might be finding she actually enjoys things that her old peer group is hostile apathetic towards.

That's the part that sticks out the most to me, the OP is complaining that her best friend is hanging out too much with her boring, possible-abuser brother. With family like that, who needs enemies?

I'll start off by saying that only OP knows, and it doesn't quite seem like that's the case based on her post.

But also, people very rarely go out of their way to change so many things about themselves, especially for the better. Not that it doesn't happen, just that it's rare. And sometimes that kind of change comes from having a romantic interest of some sort. The changes she listed are the most obvious that could be causing such insecurities but maybe there's other stuff about who he's hanging out with or whatever.

Once again, there's nothing really suggesting that even in her own post, just what my own biased experience is telling me could be part of the perceived issue. Guy sounds cool tho, guys wearing earrings are pretty hot.
