Baronjutter posted:I wish more parents would think about how the name they think is so cool or quirky or deeply meaningful to them in them in the moment will affect their kid in the future. Name based bullying can be intense. Well it's hard to predict "My parents will bully you for a name nobody else seems to care about and you even like" re: Astrea. Harlot's another story.

FMguru posted:When you have a chance to turn a celebration of your love and future together with your partner into also being a chance to humiliate your one too-pretty friend you've always hated, well you just have to take it. OP should first try on the outfit, take pictures, put it up next to the pictures of the bridesmaids dress, and say "Y'all really think this isn't a problem?" If any friends still act lovely over it, they aren't friends.

mystes posted:It's interesting that the OP seems to have no sense of how rich their parents are. Like they're saying they looked up 1% and yes they're in the 1% and their parents' house cost 7 figure when they bought it but that's still pretty vague and that makes them which kind of makes it hard to evaluate the situation They own multiple houses and vehicles and travel frequently across the world. When I say multiple vehicles, I mean EACH PARENT owns multiple vehicles of their own.

She has a child's concept of money. It must be nice to not have had to understand the value of money when you're young out of your parents's fear.

Troublemaker posted:To me it also doesn't make sense that she'd go after the other woman instead of the BF. I'm not a psycho who attacks other people, but I'd think the blame would go to the guy she thinks is cheating on her, not whatever woman he's sitting with. This is a chronic problem with people whose SO cheats on them, getting furious at the other person LURING THEIR SO AWAY.

The Maroon Hawk posted:Sure, but you’d still think at some point he, y’know, ask her why she did it I don't think that he doesn't know why she did it. He just thinks "Oh, women be like that, they attack a woman going out with their man unless it's his mom." Basically I think that he doesn't mention it because it's just so obvious and normal and true to him that why should he mention it?

I wonder how this is going- quote:She’s spoiled at her dad’s house. He remarried when she was 5, she’s a stay at home mom, and my daughter is an only child over there. She used to come home saying “mommy (they told her to call his wife mommy) said I don’t need to clean up because I’m a princess”. She still doesn’t pack her own backpack or lunch, her dad pays her every time she competes in a track meet, and she has a credit card with no hard limit, she’s just told to “use her best judgement” or “be reasonable” quote:He can make me pay back pay. I was supposed to pay years ago but he said not to worry about it. Her dad and his wife totally enable this behavior. She used to come over and say “mommy says I don’t have to clean up because I’m a princess.” She also refuses to spend the night when she has school because she has to pack her own backpack and lunch. She has a rich ex who was happy to not make her spend money re: their kid and now she's binned that situation. Jealousy and hate for her own kid seethe out of her every word. What a weirdo.

limp_cheese posted:That competitive kid does sound a bit spoiled by her other parents but that doesn't make the grounding right and they obviously are not dealing with it in any kind of constructive way. Yeah if the mom wasn't a POS about it, she might have a point about the spoiling. Of course, maybe if the mom wasn't an rear end in a top hat, the daughter might want to stay around enough to deal with the extremely minor inconvenience of packing her backpack and poo poo.

Pope Hilarius II posted:I've been a chainsmoker since I was 24. I'm not particularly proud of it (I've tried quitting numerous times) and I have complete understanding for some people who are very sensitive to it. I live alone so while I do usually smoke indoors, when I have guests over I always offer to go outside for my cigarette. At work I avoid sitting in the landscape office because I'm well aware some people will even find the residual smell of my smoke break off-putting. I've also never had a problem with many public spaces having become smoke-free. I think smoking made a lot of people very miserable for a very long time and the difference is crystal clear now that it's mostly gone from their lives. And maybe back in the smoking years, the miserable people were told to suck it up, it's not that bad, etc. So coming out with "people are rude to me because I smoke" is going to get some testy responses!

His friend just lost his fiance, which has caused more than one man to implode and kill themselves. He hasn't even had the funeral yet. Yikes. Her lack of compassion is gonna kill the relationship. She's on near full bedrest at 7 months, that's not normal at all. She's probably afraid she's going to die and her husband's leaving overnight to help a guy who has family living with him right now to watch and take care of him. She has an elderly aunt that he sends over to check "sometimes" and nothing else. This is info from replies, of course. He didn't mention in the post that his friend has family living with him to support him right now and she has nothing else.

By the way, he says the friend can't come over because he has dogs, which his wife is afraid of. And I guess the friend can't have that family currently living with him take care of those dogs. He just really doesn't want to do anything to take care of this problem that inconveniences anyone but his wife.
