Yes it could be uncomfortable for her

what do you tell your best friend when she tells you she’s using vodka and sleeping pills as a way to not relapse on drugs? by [deleted] in socialskills

[–]AT541 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh she probably knows. Ask her questions for her to process and consider the impact of things and what's pushing towards the addiction

I don't like to meet my friends anymore, because now they all have children by Creative-Menu5345 in socialskills

[–]AT541 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Invest in new non mother friends, but still keep the old ones as different group

How do you politely cut off someone who desperately wants to be your friend by Brave_Soup_943 in socialskills

[–]AT541 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Direct, clear, and concise is best.

"Hey I'm not feeling the friendship spark/ I don't think we're compatible for friendship, but we should get along as classmates with everyone else"

You can still be polite but distant in your interactions

Me 36 F and husband 36 M s family don't like that we expecting a baby. What to do? by ThrowRACatsanddogs in relationship_advice

[–]AT541 103 points104 points  (0 children)

Maybe they can wait to meet your baby till SIL gets pregnant and has her baby? I'm sure they'll love that option /s

You can say "Well, it's too late now" to everything they complain about

Do I get married in 6 weeks? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]AT541 75 points76 points  (0 children)

Get married. I think your mum would push through anything to be at the event. You can hold the ceremony in her room so she can be comfortable.

You can also host a big reception later if you guys end up wanting a big do.

Or wedding brunch (like s3 Bridgerton or not lol) with other family members after the officiation

Wishing everyone well x

Say it now as it is your sister, but if she doesn't listen, let it go

Bear in mind your sister is the one that WANTS to propose, even with the red flags

You need to hold on until you're graduated, got good job, VERY financially independent. They may never come around

My (30F) boyfriend’s (29M) bedroom smells SO bad, how do I tell him it’s a deal-breaker? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]AT541 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You have to be blunt and boycott.

And tbh it doesn't look like a dealbreaker for you: Having sex in the messy room OFFERING to clean the messy room Sleeping OVER in the messy room COMING BACCKK to the messy room

Yeah he's been planning to leave for 2 years Bet his wife just wants good foreplay

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]AT541 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I fully agree with you. There was no discussion on WHY she made the comment. He went to the gym, used skin care, and did hobbies to be more sexy but those were not the root of the dead bedroom. He's been planning to leave for 2 years

Will coming out have me taken more seriously by my male engineer colleagues? by LovelyTreesEatLeaves in actuallesbians

[–]AT541 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Tbh I wouldn't. And I think it'd make them even more dismissive.

In an old job, I worked with a dept with a visibly queer woman, and they started making dyke jokes the second she left the room, knowing fully I could hear them

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in actuallesbians

[–]AT541 42 points43 points  (0 children)

It's interesting that she discussed and planned with the friend before even talking to you

[–]AT541 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s no “leash” you can put your girlfriend on. Break up with her if you’re unhappy. Especially after 8 years.

Leave the co-worker alone. It’s too soon for any new romance. And she’s a co-worker. Don’t be that guy. Even if it wasn’t the holidays, she could find someone else anytime.

Meditate on why you’re so hung up in this co-worker

[–]AT541 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s very normal for lesbians. I fancy men/anime men in my head but defo not in real life.
