The OP was subjected to several hours of harassment over her lack of baby despite everyone knowing she is physically incapable of having one. And when the cousin ramped it up to some seriously offensive poo poo, the woman snapped.

How dare a woman have opinions about a piece of jewelry that she’ll be expected and hoping to wear for the rest of her married life. Whose sentimentality is entirely one sided. She handled the proposal like a huge rear end in a top hat though. Men are delicate creatures that need to be coddled and lied to because the truth is too painful. Should have tucked the heirloom into the back of a jewelry box and gotten a shiny new placeholder that can withstand everyday wear and tear.

If you're going to make the effort to go to a restaurant, at least choose something that isn't bland as gently caress. If you want trash, get fast food. If you want a meal, take the time to find a decent place that isn't a chain.

This is extremely late but if you want to use your maiden name professionally, don’t change it when you get married. I’m in research and work alongside doctors and a large number of women keep their maiden name. Having two sounds stupid and a pain in the rear end. Even worse if you’re trying to mix and match. That’s just asking for trouble.

If the woman cared so much about her drink, she should have watched it more closely. Seriously though, don’t be lovely to people you want something from. Make them want to help you otherwise they might just say gently caress it.

Straight White Shark posted:This is great practical advice but it doesn't change the fact that the dude is 110% an rear end in a top hat. They were at the airport, the assumption should be that everyone is an rear end in a top hat. You start off nasty and you’re never gonna get comped. Is it really so hard to ask for something civilly rather than expect/demand it? Woman would have been free to turn nasty if the guy declined after a polite “excuse me? Do you mind paying for the drink your kid spilled?” But she started off putting the guy on the defensive and in no mood to help.

I love my wife except that I’ve had to lock her out of the most important part of my life: the cheese sanctum. Is it child abuse to be subjected to the poly lifestyle of your parents? There’s gotta be a study on it somewhere.

I wonder if the old fat poly cheese bag couple can maintain lasting relationships with anyone else. Like, do they bring home a steady boyfriend/girlfriend every now and then? Someone who is familiar with their habits and decided it was acceptable? Or do they just bring in a string of randos because who in their right mind would ever come back after seeing locks and mini fridges in the separate bedrooms?

I get no emotional or financial support from my boyfriend, how do I call him out about one particular lovely trait without leaving him? edit: Oh poo poo, uh have some content I [26F] am sick and tried of my boyfriend's [28M] refusal to contribute to our household quote:I know this is an age-old problem, but I could use some advice because my tactics haven’t been working. I’ve been living with my boyfriend for about 2 years now. We’re mostly really great together and I’m very happy with him. However, in the time we’ve been cohabitating, it’s become clear that he does not care about being an equal partner when it comes to household maintenance (chores/cooking), and what’s worse, he doesn’t seem to take seriously how much that bothers me. Plus, he’s a bit of a slob and does things like leaving dirty clothes EVERYWHERE, letting food trash sit around, and just generally does not clean up after himself on a daily basis. Relevant info: we are both professionals, but he’s in tech and makes way, way more money than me. Despite that we both work full-time, I sometimes feel like he views his much more substantial financial contribution to our household as a free pass when it comes to chores. I’ve mentioned this, but he says it’s not true. Dazerbeams fucked around with this message at 16:47 on Mar 23, 2019 |

Mom (F49) posted screenshots of dads (M55) dating site profile to family chat u/sarahhh11 I just woke up and opened WhatsApp. New message in family chat. ’Screenshots of dads dating profile site. Last log in 3 hours ago. Profile made 2017.’ drat. I took that profile photo of him. Does he want a new family or wtf is he after?? I’m heartbroken, but I feel so bad for my dad. I’ve always been his little princess, but my three other siblings (all over 18) have literally hated dad for the past x years. The main reason for this, has been my mom. She is really manipulative and means towards dad, although they’ve been together for over 27 yrs. Everytime dad has done something that mom doesn’t like, she would really make sure the whole family would be against dad. No wonder my siblings are all messed up in their head mentally... But yeah, during this year abroad (have not seen parents in a year) I really thought things had been going to a better direction... Parents have posted so many loving pictures online etc. and travelled together. I don’t know what to do/say/think about this. I want to be so angry at my dad for tearing the family apart and making me scared of relationships. But at the same time, I want to be so angry at my mom for embarrassing dad again in front of everyone and making the whole drat family hate him even more. How have your parents dealt with one of them cheating? How have you felt about it? Did your parents even tell you? What the hell should I comment on the family chat???? I just hate picking up sides.... :,,,,,,( Pro tip to everyone: don’t make kids, when you’re not mentally ready. The kids will just end up being your psychologists. TLDR: Dads profile of 2 years caught on dating site. Manipulative mom posted screenshots on family chat and wrote a bunch of hateful comments. I don’t know what to think about all this. Which side to choose?

I think we should give the mom some slack. Imagine trying to raise intelligent and sexually safe children and succeeding with the first, only to find out your second is an utter moron intent on making one of the worst possible decisions that will affect not only her own life, but the parents and the potential child as well. Seriously, that 15 year old girl wants to gently caress potentially 4 people over, not bothering to mention the father of the kid or the father's parents. Do whatever you gotta do to convince the girl to not turbofuck everything for the foreseeable future.

Jeffrey of YOSPOS posted:I think that, given the benefit of hindsight, the parent who forever alienates their child but still convinces them to get the abortion is a better parent than the one who "supports them no matter what" and stands by their side while they dive headfirst into a life of suffering. I don't think I could ever leave my child to suffer forever but I could certainly imagine making them think I would so that they come to their senses. Agreed. Life is already hard enough as it is. No need to willfully make it 100x harder without fully grasping the situation until it's far too late to back out.
