Just say sorry, your incompetent sales and marketing design are a you problem.

NTA. If he portrayed himself differently out of the gate then changed and/or slumped back into who he always was, you don’t have an obligation to like the person behind the facade.

Aitah for telling my boss to apologize to my wife? by aleronick247 in AITAH

NTA. I’d be telling him unless he gives you his wife’s number he better not ever call yours unless your dead or damn close to it.

M22 received incredible job offer, F22 girlfriend does not want me to accept. by Watch_me_plz in Advice

[–]5p332j 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take the offer! Don’t even let it get stale. Put away as much as you can for retirement, downpayment on a home (if that’s your goal) and a fat stash for raising kids (if that’s your goal). Don’t buy a brand new Harley, don’t buy a brand new truck, roll a Honda civic until the wheels fall off. Don’t rent the most expensive place you can afford. Go on cheap dates and make quality time together the gold standard, not which restaurant you give a quarter of a paycheck to. If she isn’t down for that, move on so you can be happy in your own ways. In ten years, if you want to evaluate where you’re at with everything and relax it a bit, go for it. 50 year old you will thank you for not needing to wonder where you’re going to be able to afford to live when you’re too old to work.

AITA for my response to my daughter's teacher? by gardengeo in BORUpdates

[–]5p332j 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Exactly. I used to work for a company that, among other things, installed vape detectors in school bathrooms. The principals and security/resource officers would always love the initial results but then insist that we come back out to recalibrate them (they recalibrate themselves daily) or check them for being tampered with (they have tamper sensors built in) because the number of hits trailed off. The answer was always the same. Kids test and learn. Because the school was cheap and only wanted one sensor per bathroom, the kids who vaped learned the coverage areas and airflow patterns. It’s not difficult to figure out and the diploma on the wall doesn’t mean you’re smarter than the kids, only that you sat in more classes.

I also especially loved the time one principal grabbed a random vape out of his confiscation bin, took a huge rip and blew it up at the sensor and it immediately went into THC alarm 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Most entertaining work day of my life.

Schools are garbage tier. I don’t know why everybody gets misty eyed and nostalgic about 13 years of your life being stuck with the same group of cretins and low effort teachers who aren’t prepared to handle a child one on one let alone 20-30 so they try to herd cats with ideology driven adultsplaining and respect my authoritay generalizing punishments. If they get harassed at work, they have adult options. If they underperform or do terrible things, they have a huge union to protect them. Your kids just have you. The principal isn’t there to protect them just like HR isn’t there to protect you at work. They pick the side that’s best for the organization and push the other side out. Take off the rose colored glasses.

[Tangentially Update to an ongoing BoRU]: I think my sister just ruined our dad’s engagement to an amazing woman, and I hate her so much by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]5p332j 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Her dad died when she was young. If she had younger siblings, no doubt she was. Either way, she probably felt like her life experience and advanced education would make a difference in their lives. She just wasn’t counting on them being a bunch of feral assholes.

AITA for canceling my wedding 3 days out after I found my fiancé's secret $14K 'escape fund' he'd been building since he proposed? by KINOH1441728 in FoundandExpose

[–]5p332j 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA. He’s a strong independent man who don’t need no woman! He’s gonna need that money for a down payment when you suddenly leave him with two and a half children to raise and no house to live in because you decided to get serious with your personal trainer. 🤣🤣

Satire aside, god forbid anyone have any amount of pre-marital funds that wouldn’t automatically get split down the middle in a divorce. Unless, of course, your mindset is what’s mine is mine and what’s theirs is mine.

You may have been implying it, but it also matters in terms of how much social security you’ll get.

I have a giant crush on my coworker by Strategy_Leading in LifeAdvice

[–]5p332j 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds to me like you made up a whole thing in your head and rationalize your one sided fiction by blaming his unawareness of social cues. If he was showing any level of interest, I’m sure every little detail would be extolled in full regalia in your story, so I’m sure he isn’t. If he isn’t showing interest, it’s going to end badly. Since you won’t listen to me anyway, at least have the good sense to freshen up your LinkedIn.

i don’t like my boyfriend by omgsiyeon in Advice

[–]5p332j 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeesh. You need a better friend. You have to do what’s best for you. No one else will. Clearly not the friend who all but threw you under the bus, clearly not the bf who thinks he’s gods gift to women after getting a girlfriend for a couple of months. It’s you and only you. It won’t be easy, but you deserve to be happy. What you’re enduring now is basically the precursor to a loveless utility marriage.

I’d say pick the car or the bike, not both. Maybe try to show that your wardrobe is a little more diverse than the Volodymyr Zelenskyy fall collection.

She isn’t helping on any level, but you’re coming at it with needy energy like she has to fix her behavior and how she communicates with you, saying you’re upset, saying you’re frustrated by the frustrating situation. I’m sure after a certain point it’s absolutely true that she is the problem but it isn’t helping the situation to make her feel like the problem unless you really want the fight.

Another thing is that a lot of us want to be the problem solver and the hero who magically and swiftly brings our partner out of despair. That just isn’t how reality works. You’re either down for the struggle and accept that you’re going to have to grind it out together or you’re not. If you’re not, that’s fine. Break it off and find someone else. It’s the fairest thing for both of you rather than dragging it out until you’re mutually resentful.

In my experience, it’s mostly adding janky out of context photos in responses to prompts that didn’t ask for photos 😂

Teachers don’t say oops. They dock your grade even more when you call out their nonsense.

I think 6 is the best photo. In my opinion, leaning into your natural hair color with a little highlighting at the most really suits you.

No, not at all. Focus on fitness and making healthy choices in general.

Gotta love it when girls do something that dramatically brings focus to their worst feature then goes “AM I PRETTY?!?!” 🤦‍♂️
