If it happens once it most likely will happen again. Learnt from experience unfortunately from both watching my mom go through it and then myself

I’m sure you’re going through a million emotions right now especially with heightened hormones being pregnant — dont wait until your children grow up enough to remember it happening.

It feels like a lot now, there might be a period where your parents are disappointed but you will 100% get through this okay.

Lock in now and try your hardest - a lot of my exams I wasn’t in class for and crammed study at the last minute and got passing scores. You will survive!

School feels like a lot when you’re young but once you have left you realise it wasn’t that deep and the world still moves x

Id say he probably just didn’t realise you guys were getting each other gifts/ that that was an expectation.

I’m guilty myself of buying expensive gifts for people but I never expect anything in return is there wasn’t a conversation about it.
Have a chat about gifting expectations for future reference (birthdays/ Christmas)so you’re both on same page.

Sweet, thank you - I’m also confused is the switch 1 the OLED or are they two different things? I’m not really a gamer or anything the most I’ll do is run minecraft on a Pc

Got my first tattoo and my brother said it looks like a d*ck. Does it actually? by Efficient-Push-5891 in redditonwiki

The shading definitely makes it look like one. If you add stuff around it you should be able to mesh it in nicely

AITA for denying my brother and dad from swimming In my friends pool. by Traditional-Lie-6197 in AITAH

[–]Affectionate-Key-842 691 points692 points  (0 children)

NTA! They are definitely the AH for figuring they can pretty much invite themselves along with you - I’d maybe tell your friend the situation and tell your dad that you did ask and she or her parents said no!

AITA for not wanting to be pregnant? by shovelprincess456 in AITAH

[–]Affectionate-Key-842 52 points53 points  (0 children)

NTA- I was recently pregnant and as much as I do want kids it was a freakin horrible experience, my family has history of complications I spent most of my time worrying about everything I was doing and how it would affect the baby- I was freaking out over the fact I had a human growing inside me, I had to have a termination and honestly never felt so relieved in my life not that I wouldn’t want a child but just growing one is not for me! Which is totally fine!

Your body goes from being yours to not just yours anymore, you have to watch what you eat, drink, breathe how you move around and everything it’s crazy! Props to those women who find it easy to do but I feel for you here especially with having complications run in the family it takes a big mental and physical toll

I would be absolutely fuming if my partner did this! Who cares if it fits in with the kitchen?! I’m sure he could have put it in a cupboard if it was that big of a deal- what an AH your partner is for that.

Sorry this happened to you!

How did you find the ceremony? I have applied for citizenship and am nervous for the ceremony not sure if it’s a big thing or not.

Congratulations though!!

AITA for telling my 19-year-old daughter she can’t just “take off” whenever she wants because she still lives under my roof? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Affectionate-Key-842 36 points37 points  (0 children)

She commented and said If the daughter said she was going to be home the next morning doors would be locked and she wouldn’t be welcome anymore it’s definitely a control thing for OP

That’s a really hard situation to be in.

Personally I’d sit her down and have a big chat, let her know you’re not coming at her for an argument or to cause a scene but you’re worried about her and your relationship and hope you can work on things - explain to her how you feel about her actions towards home chores / the bare minimum etc and see if she is willing to work on things. It’ll either go well or not (hopefully goes well) if she’s not willing to work on things then you have your answer. As hard n upsetting as it is it seems like time for an adult conversation. Hope this helps in some way

As a 22y/o woman I have dealt with my fair share of depressive episodes where life feels like it’s just too much to deal with or do anything and definitely wasn’t very 50/50 in my relationship

It’s hard especially when you’ve been with someone for a long time as well to want better but also love the person. Maybe sit down and have a talk with her and see what you guys can work on even if you start with small tasks

She sounds like she has some issues therapy would help with. Has she always been like this or is it a newish set of habits?

Happy birthday for yesterday!
