Yeah. Comment about how taxing motherhood is is more than fine. Comment about degradation of breasts not fine.

The comment the bride made indicated SHE thought the comment was saying she shouldn't breast feed so much, so even though he was inappropriate, he wasn't attacking motherhood or whatever it is they're accusing him of. Poor (probably drunk) guy was probably just trying to (ineptly) make conversation and...chose poorly. Also we don't actually know that information was not skewed when it was relayed to the bride.

Not saying he didn't do something dumb, but he didn't seem to do what the bride is accusing him of.

How about you don't haggle percent points with your partner at all when you both make effectively the same money.

How many real dollars per month is this argument about? Over or under $50?

If the rent is $3000 a month, it works out to a difference of $180 a month or $2160 a year.

I live in silicon valley and the earliest you can get hot food at one major company is 8am. Cutting perks is basically cutting salary, because they probably factored into your decision of whether to join the company in the first place.

I [23F] wear wigs for fun. My bf [22M] wants me to stop but I don't think that's fair.

quote:


I don't have any hair issues or anything, I just like hair. My own hair is breast length and brown. Being a theatre kid in high school just made me love wigs and makeup.

So, I have 4 wigs. They range from short and blonde to waist length and black. I basically have the styles that I've ever seriously considered cutting/dying my hair into in wig form. Some days I wear them, some days I don't. I wear a wig maybe 30-40% of the time.

Originally, I thought bf was fine with the wigs. When I first told him he wanted to see/touch/try them on which was expected. I have pictures of him with black waist length hair on and everything. But with time I guess hes gotten fed up?

Earlier today we were texting and i asked him if we could role play professor/student during sex. He said sure and I was happy and I mentioned that I wanted to be blonde for it and he asked why, I said it would be hot and make it easier to get into character, and he kind of shut down on me. Didn't reply for three hours.

So he calls me and he straight up tells me he'd prefer if I stopped wearing wigs completely. He said he finds the fact that I can put it on and take it off unattractive. But he reassured me he loves me and finds me beautiful, he's just "disgusted" by seeing the wigs. He wants us to be together. His proposed compromise was that I only wear wigs if we're going out to a club, party, or bar. I don't think that's fair.

I was kinda dumbfounded because it's like jeez, I just wanted to be a blonde schoolgirl. But he was honest, I guess. So at this point, I think he's being unfair. I don't want to stop wearing them or restrict myself that much. I want the right to wear them at the grocery store if I want to.

So my question is, is there a better compromise for us that I can propose to him? I love him a lot but I'm pretty annoyed. He's known about the wigs since the second week he knew me. If they were so disgusting I wish he wouldve said something then. :/

Tl;dr: I like wigs. Bf hates wigs and wants me to only wear them to nightlife activities (parties, clubs, bars) I don't think that's fair since I barely go to those kinds of places. Is there a better compromise?

This is just very sad. It sounds like her hosts are just doing it for the paycheck and resent her for it, and it's not like the study abroad program needs her approval. They already have her money. I suppose it's possible that she's a huge Oui-aboo and that's turning everyone off.

2. Never get someone a car as a surprise!;


1. Maybe they could make a copy of the ring?

2. She said she really likes her car and it runs well and it handles snow...Why does she even want to get a new car? Return the SUV and pocket the money, then :sever: because that seems like a really controlling guy.

Man that flower thing is a new please dump the gently caress out of me signal but it definitely complies with standard dump me flag protocols.

As a person who knows people in the flowers business, they are a ripoff no matter when you buy them.

Plausible chain of events: GF receives giant pretty bouquet. Co-worker jealous. "How", thinks co-worker/boss, "can I ruin this for her, thereby making myself feel better". Seeds of doubt planted. Couple hours pass. GF NEEDS to know before everyone goes home for the day. They're judging her boyfriend, she wants to defend him but doesn't know how!

None of this is in the text, but I've seen people go waaaaaay out of their way to ruin someone else's happiness, particularly at work.


Flowers by their nature are kind of a ripoff unless potted, but I have good memories of buying large bouquets of alstromeria for $5 in college from a guy with buckets on the sidewalk.
