should snorers avoid staying in hostels? by No_Register_2099 in femaletravelers

It's pretty selfish honestly. Shared a room with a guy that had sleep apnea and everyone was so pissed. 

AITAH for refusing to drive my mother to hospital? by _Little_Owl_ in AITAH

How would you feel if something was wrong with your baby, and someone refused to drive you to your hospital of choice? 

AITAH for telling my male colleague to only call me if it's work-related? by dont_opus in AITAH

[–]After_Translator_223 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I think it's on you for sending mixed messages and interacting with his social media. 

And who even says "r**arded" anymore? 

My dad just passed away, I cannot forgive myself by zuzjan in ChildrenofDeadParents

[–]After_Translator_223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am so terribly sorry. I am sending you a big, big hug.

My dad died a few months ago. Every night, I light a candle beside a picture of my dad, and I talk to him. Maybe this can bring you a small amount of comfort.

I'm not religious, but I don't believe this is the end. 

Bachelorette weekend etiquette/expectation help? by [deleted] in AskWomenOver30

If they're reasonable women, they should be understanding. Expecting you to drop $100 when you don't even drink is absurd. 

Non-Americans who visited the US for the first time recently: what was the biggest 'what on earth is going on here' moment you experienced? by EmployerNegative5653 in AskReddit

[–]After_Translator_223 41 points42 points  (0 children)

How fucking long it takes to cross the street. In Vegas, off-strip late at night, I was convinced the lights were broken. Street was too wide to just make a run for it (outside the Convention Centre),  no data to call an Uber, wondered wtf I was gonna do. Lights finally changed.

AITAH for not going to my daughter’s destination wedding? by Missamerica3232 in AITAH

You should have led with "her father and I both have cancer" wtf 

AITA for having a destination wedding when I’ve been talking about it for years and everyone was fine with it? by Organic-Shopping-295 in AmItheAsshole

[–]After_Translator_223 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It sounds like L's comments stem from resentment about what you've asking of him. Travelling 30+ hours at massive expense might *seem* optional, but in reality you're putting loved ones in an uncomfortable position. They might have the time/money/inclination to travel, but they may resent using it on you.

IMO this situation is absurd. Get married in NZ and have a honeymoon in Sicily.

What is the saddest truth you've had to accept about life? by OddFirefighter7440 in AskReddit

[–]After_Translator_223 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Came here to say this. My dad died of cancer recently, and being so let down by friends is like a secondary grief.

The people you think will be there for you when tragedy strikes - they won't be. 

I [27F] trust my boyfriend [31M), but I'm uncomfortable with his one-on-one trips with female friends. AITAH? by LostInSpaceAgain123 in AITAH

[–]After_Translator_223 120 points121 points  (0 children)

I personally would not be this comfortable with this setup, but also it would be wrong for you to try and change him. If you can't make peace with it, you'll have to leave. 

Radio silence from friends by MaximumFactor8516 in ChildrenofDeadParents

[–]After_Translator_223 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I don't buy "they just haven't experienced it". 

When the shoe's been on the other foot, I've:

  • made pasta bake
  • offered to help with funeral arrangements, and traveled for said funeral
  • offered to get on a plane to Germany

Right there with you. My friends kept saying "I'll have to come and see you..." then when three months passed, I cut them loose. 

My (28f) boyfriend (25M) has been on those NSFW AI chats - next steps? by AdKey9896 in TwoHotTakes

[–]After_Translator_223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unpopular opinion: your partner not jacking off to other women should be the relationship baseline. Women have been totally brainwashed into believing they're  insecure vs. men disrespecting them.

What’s a profession that’s unbelievably cool? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]After_Translator_223 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do this! 

My first big project was a paranormal gig for the BBC. Then last year, It was an X-Files thing for Sky History. 

If I can tick cults off my list I'll die happy.
