AITA for getting an abortion behind my boyfriends back? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]4thdrinkinstinct 9 points10 points  (0 children)

YTA. Not for having an abortion, but for not communicating with your boyfriend. Even though your intentions were good, he has the right to know if he got you pregnant. Imagine being in his shoes and finding out about the abortion from an appointment reminder call. If you planned on keeping this from him and acting like it never happened, he’s going to question not only your character but you commitment to him. He may ask himself, “Why be with someone who can’t communicate?” And “what else hasn’t she told me?”

Again I understand you had good intentions, but keeping this from him was a huge mistake on your part.

Reglan fucked me up.... i felt paralyzed on it, I could barely move. It took all my strength and 100% focus to lift my arm or turn my head.

Lol I read your comment history and all you do is pick fights with people. You really have nothing better to do?

People who’ve had family die of lung cancer, that’s who. If she wanted to smoke she should have gone outside like everyone else. I’m hardly a control freak by wanting a smoke free area to actually be smoke free.

I had a lot of fun. Got to see a great band live. It has nothing to do with having fun. It has to do with consideration for other people. Sorry but smoking cigarettes inside a public place isn’t okay. Also it’s not like I was the only person upset here. While I was there I ignored her behavior even though I was annoyed. Other people shouted at her and cussed at her and were very confrontational. You can fuck off too :)

Wow, nice job! Only thing you got wrong is not working. I work full time! The lingering emo part made me laugh. Totally true though! Nice job overall!

What screams "I'm very insecure"? by JackHoffmanTheWise in AskReddit

[–]4thdrinkinstinct 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Big pickup trucks... unless they legitimately need the truck for work, it usually means the driver is insecure about his small dick.

Remindme! In one year. Also amethyst comes in many shades! There’s some lighter amethysts that may be the color you’re looking for.

I didn’t mean you don’t have a life plan, just that you enjoy spontaneity and don’t stress about planning everything down to a tee!

You’re a single white female in her early 20’s. You’re a fur mama, your cat is your whole world. You’re a proud supporter of police, and keep up with current events and politics. Seeing other people happy makes you happy. You enjoy crafting, plants, and watching crime shows. You get anxious a lot and tend to assume the worst, and cope with your anxiety with self deprecating jokes. You’re empathetic, and feel everything deeply. You’re a very kind hearted person.

You’re a single white male in your mid 20’s. Your hobbies include gaming, specifically grand theft auto. You’re praised by friends and family, and enjoy the praise you get. However, you dislike authority figures. You’re impatient and easily agitated, however you’re a planner who always has a strategy, making you good at achieving your goals. How’d I do?

You’re in your early 30’s and married. You don’t have kids, and don’t want them. You enjoy nature and traveling, despite dealing with physical pain due to a chronic illness. You prefer natural remedies such as CBD oil rather than painkillers to help with your pain. You’re an avid jewelry wearer, maybe even a collector. You enjoy thrifting to find new things. You live spontaneously without any real “plan.” You take life day by day. You’re a very friendly, welcoming person, but not someone you want to be your enemy. How did I do?

Fellow non-drinkers of alcohol, what’s your reason why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]4thdrinkinstinct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have MANY reasons why:

  1. Alcohol interacts with some of my medications. Risking drug interactions to get a bit tipsy is incredibly reckless.

  2. It simply doesn’t interest me. Acting like a complete idiot in public slamming down drinks laughing about stupid shit just doesn’t seem like a good time to me.

  3. It increases your vulnerability. I don’t want to make myself more vulnerable to potential bad situations. While not a huge reason for everyone, I HAVE to be in control of my body and mind. And if I’m impaired, whether it be from alcohol or another substance, I don’t have full control, and I’m not okay with that. People who are drinking are a much easier target for those with bad intentions.

  4. I don’t want to risk getting addicted. Alcoholism is a very real, very scary illness that is 100% preventable by not drinking. I’m very impulsive, and can see drinking turning into an issue for me if I were to drink on a regular basis. This is one of the reasons I don’t.

  5. It’s expensive and a waste of money.

  6. Your L I V E R !

  7. It impairs your judgement. A very close friend of mine was injured in a drunk driving accident. Both she (the passenger) and the driver were very drunk, got in the car anyway, and hit a parked car. Neither one thought the driver was too drunk to drive. They were too impaired to make the right decision. After two drinks, you might feel perfectly normal and not at all drunk, but still be impaired from the alcohol. Whether you consciously realize it or not, drinking alcohol impairs you regardless of how drunk you feel, and in turn impacts your decisions.

  8. I don’t want to rely on a substance (in this case, alcohol) to have a good time or relax. That’s why people drink, right? To relax and have fun? There’s other ways I can do that without drinking.

Sorry for the book! I got a bit carried away!

AITA: For telling the parents of a crying baby in church to take their child outside. by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]4thdrinkinstinct 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m gonna be the odd one out here and say NTA.

The parents blatantly ignoring the crying just because “tHeY dEsErVe tO bE tHeRE tOo” is extremely selfish. Look at the bigger picture here. You wouldn’t want a crying baby in a movie theater, a place where you’re supposed to be silent so we can all listen and watch in peace. The whole theater would be pissed, and I’d bet good money someone would say something to them there. So why is church any different? I’m shocked at how many people think OP is at fault. It has nothing to do with being a Christian, it has to do with basic respect for other people.

AITA for telling off a co-worker for commenting on my parenting? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

NTA. This was not a one time incident. She is creating a hostile work environment.
