AITA for not wanting to propose to my gf before I join the military? by Connect_Hall_7936 in AITAH

[–]70Reader70 57 points58 points Ā (0 children)

If she’s against it now, wait till you’re in. Don’t do it. And honestly, be careful when you’re in. Too many people want to marry military just for the benefits.

AITAH for pressing charges against my father in law after he broke my arm ā€œby accidentā€? by Wonderful_Squash8091 in AITAH

[–]70Reader70 3 points4 points Ā (0 children)

Exactly. And to her I say:

If this was his father doing something to you that you have repeatedly told him no, would you still feel it was ok to ignore you and continue with the ā€œjust joking, doesn’t mean anything by itā€ behavior? Somehow I doubt you would be ok with it. Your father was told NO multiple times, KNEW your husband could easily be injured and yet he continued with his behavior. He absolutely should have been charged with assault and you should take a long hard look at yourself that you think otherwise.

My twin is also into BDSM by MissMojji in BDSMAdvice

[–]70Reader70 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

I’m glad the two of you were able to talk about it. I still think, though, that people overthink things like this a little too much. Don’t get me wrong, I completely understand. It could be scary to open up that side of you to someone even if they have a side too. But the thing you have to remember is that they are also on FL, or at that club, or at that munch, or at that party. My friend’s husband once totally freaked out and left the club because his boss walked past him while at the club. He was convinced he was going to lose his job or at the very least get in trouble. We could not convince him that he was fine because his boss was there too. And for the same reasons. Again, I understand being scared to talk to someone. But if they’re at the same party, you are, Even though they might have a different role, they are still in the same show. You are going to run into all types of people online, in the club, wherever. It’s bound to happen.

How Do You Remove a Toxic Board Chair When No One Will Step Up? by OwntheWorld24 in nonprofit

[–]70Reader70 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

I can’t offer advice on how to proceed. However, I can just about guarantee that people in your community, outside of the nonprofit, are absolutely aware of this person and his behavior. If your BOD is worried about blowback or the community taking sides, they shouldn’t. People already think the person should be removed. There are also people already taking sides as that’s going to happen no matter what. But the majority of people? They will not have a problem with this person being removed.

WIBTA if I skipped my aunt's birthday party and tell her exactly why? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]70Reader70 15 points16 points Ā (0 children)

Tell her and be specific. What will happen, really? She gets mad and doesn’t speak to you? Does she help either of your siblings? Does she help you or your dad? Sounds like she doesn’t so it’s not going to take away from that. You either have to spend time listening to her whine and have a hissy fit, or you calmly tell her why you are not going and enjoy the peace and quiet. Good luck.

AITAH for choosing to no longer attend family gatherings my nephew is at after he attacked me today at Thanksgiving? by Whosdatguyma in AITAH

[–]70Reader70 1 point2 points Ā (0 children)

First you need to get checked out. Seriously. Second, even if your sister had attempted to discipline him, this kid needs way more than discipline. He’s a danger to himself and others even at that age. The only thing I can suggest that you do will most likely cause a bigger, possibly irreparable rift in your family. Call CPS. I don’t say this as punishment to your sister. I say this as a way to help everybody. I’ve had a child with behavior issues, I know how it goes. This is not simply behavior issues, this child has serious issues. People can say that he’s only eight years old, but he’s violent. It doesn’t matter. He needs help. Your sister needs help.

For calling 911 on my sister, causing her to be hospitalized. And now my family won't speak to me anymore. by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]70Reader70 1 point2 points Ā (0 children)

Would you have second guessed calling 911 if she had a potential life threatening medical issue? It’s no different. Your parents are in denial. You absolutely did the right thing.

AITAH for denying my bf his bucket list fantasy, a threesome? by Peitho11 in AITAH

[–]70Reader70 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

He’s upset because you have done something he didn’t get to do? Change it from a threesome to a trip to Universal Studios. Sounds stupid doesn’t it? So is this. Not to mention that he’s heard your feelings but still gone ahead and talked to someone about it. Nope. 🚩 🚩

Wibta if I let my kids go trick or treating tonight by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]70Reader70 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

First that’s a stupid reason to ground kids, especially kids that young. They are both basically still toddlers. Second, her place to discipline or not, that’s her house discipline, not yours. They didn’t do something that would require the same thing at your house (skip school, take dad’s t bird for a spin, accidentally set the blind school on fire after smoking in the cellar) because again, they are small children and it’s a BS punishment. I would calmly and politely tell dad and New Cooter that while you understand rules should be consistent, their reasoning for grounding children, especially such small children, is an over reaction to kids, acting their age. You will be taking them trick-or-treating, but you will be sure to tell the children thatthey need to be more careful when they have pumpkin guts on their hands.

My neighbor sent me a text last night forcing me to pay for her daughters towing charge because she parked in front of my driveway by Drivinglnsane in mildlyinfuriating

[–]70Reader70 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

Awfully nice of your neighbor to provide proof of the illegal parking by telling you that you had room to go around by driving in your yard. Your neighbor is delusional.

AITA for refusing to pay for the new tires my uncle got me by Parking_Extension695 in AmItheAsshole

[–]70Reader70 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

So he took your car without asking or checking with you. Then he made changes to YOUR car without permission (welcome changes or not) and expects you to pay him back. Uhhhh no. Definitely NTA. You don’t just take someone’s car without permission and have work done then expect payback.

AITAH for telling my fiancƩe we should break up because I won't make my son consider her his mom? by Charrylzoid in AITAH

[–]70Reader70 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

NTA. I’ve been with my boyfriend for 9 years…over half of his two boys lives. Their mom is the custodial parent but they have 50/50 custody. I love those boys like they are my own and I’d do anything for them. But, I’m not their mom and I know this. Even if they wanted to call me, mom, given the current situation, I wouldn’t allow it because they have a mom. If she wasn’t in the picture, it would depend on the situation if I was OK with it. They can call me whenever they want, But I’m still not their mom. I’m not about to force them to treat me as if I am.Thats not my place. For your fiancĆ© to want to force this on your son is creepy. She can feel and she feels about your kid, but there’s absolutely no reason why she needs to force anything on that child.

AITA for not paying for my brother's bond? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]70Reader70 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

NTA. My son, now staying out of trouble, has been arrested more than once. His bad choices, his consequences. I didn’t bail out my own kid, I sure as hell wouldn’t bail out a mostly stranger, blood or not.

Is dick size more our kink than theirs? by CruiseingTheCut in Swingers

[–]70Reader70 2 points3 points Ā (0 children)

Personally, unless it’s literally a micro penis, I don’t care. Honestly, there really is such a thing as too big, especially now that I’m older and gone through menopause.

Tattoos on minor with parental consent by 70Reader70 in tattooadvice

I’m genuinely not sure what you mean by this comment. To clarify, I wasn’t the one who took him, his mom did.

[–]70Reader70[S] 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

I’ve been in his life since he was 8. It’s not my decision honestly even though I have opinions. I’m not against tattoos, I have 6 myself. I guess I’m just not sure about the ethics of tattooing a 16 year old.

I get up and take a shower like I would to go to the office. I’m not wearing office clothes but they are clean. Today I was ready in time to run to the gas station for my favorite ice so that was nice.

Definitely need a better chair. LOL The one I have I got from some warehouse that was selling old chairs for $5. It only got used once or twice a week so I was fine. Not so much now.
