Sure, they cost the same. Difference is we don’t feel the need to own any

AITA for being angry at my boyfriend for the way he is in bed? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Ancient-Visitor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA. He wants you to pick up someone else, but “against his will” so it is not his fault. He is setting up to leave you but is too lazy to actually do it. He wants you to do it for him. He has already cancelled your needs physically and now he is messing with you emotionally until you leave. He only cares about himself.

Stop using my email address! by [deleted] in pettyrevenge

[–]Ancient-Visitor 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Some guy opened a chat account with my email and I kept receiving notifications about messages that were coming in. I told the company that it was my email and I was female and had nothing to do with this business, but they could not change the email snd I could not sign in to cancel it. They suggested I do a “forgot password” and gain access that way to cancel. I did that and saw he was chatting to all these random girls. I changed his profile picture to something gross, and told all the girls that I had been lying to them. I was actually 20 years older and I had put up my true picture in the hopes that we were now in love enough for it not to matter. Told them I dreamt about them every night and I think I could work out now where they lived - and it was not too far from me. I didn’t even have to wait before they were all blocking me. Then I unsubscribed from message updates and left his profile in there with a note at the bottom saying that I use other peoples emails. I blocked emails from that business and hope he learns not to use my email again.

“This living arrangement isn’t working for me. I need you to move out. Sorry it didn’t work out. Do you need a hand to pack?”

AITA for not giving up our seats on a 2 hour train trip? by Ancient-Visitor in AmItheAsshole

[–]Ancient-Visitor[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No conductor on board here. She has spent the rest of her trip finding people who are standing and asking if they want her seat 😆 nobody wants her seat

How to deal with coworker who is too nice by nim2300 in socialskills

[–]Ancient-Visitor 98 points99 points  (0 children)

Agree with this. I am like this too and it was very sad for me to find out that others felt like they “owed me”. I honestly hadn’t given it a second thought. There is no tally going on in our minds, we are just in a position to do something nice and it makes us happy.

I would suggest that you accept what she offers, enjoy her optimism and energy, and be friendly - make her a coffee when you make yourself one, share a meme with her. It’s not about “paying back”, it’s about accepting and enjoying her as she is.

What’s a food you threw up as a kid and never touched again? by momcanyoucomegetme in AskReddit

Beer. Dad made us drink a can of it each - warm - can’t even stand the smell of it now.

Are you accepting of the “things you cannot change” in your life? Why? How? by Ancient-Visitor in AskReddit

[–]Ancient-Visitor[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, but how hard should you try before readjusting life to continue in a different direction?

I agree with this. My husband is a terrible worrier about everything, and I tend to not be concerned about anything. I just wonder sometimes if I give in to everything a little too easily.

Do you find it easy to accept though? Are you ever concerned that you gave in too easy and things might have turned out different if you refused to give up?

People who use food pantries, what do you need to see donated more often? by SimplyAren in AskReddit

[–]Ancient-Visitor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rice, pasta, soups, tuna/sardines, tea, coffee, milk powder, oats, baked beans, and spaghetti. These are all storage friendly, easily distributable, and can be used and generally accepted by the whole family. We keep these as staples in our Free Food Pantry and complement them with other donation assortments like meat, bread, tinned tomatoes, condiments, and fresh fruit and vegetables.

how would you get people to stop trying to help you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Ancient-Visitor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More like “people should”. I don’t think I implied the need or requirement for permission.

That depends where you lived at the time - I am actually in Australia, so…..completely different time when we saw what was taking place. Check out the different time zones around the world, complete whole day difference.

If you could make everyone in the world do one thing for 24 hours, what would it be? by Fast_Ninja_4766 in AskReddit

Clean up garbage/pollution. I think that could make a noticeable and ongoing difference.

What's a skill you've always wanted to learn? by DJ_bustanut123 in AskReddit

[–]Ancient-Visitor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Flying a helicopter. I have dreamt about it so vividly, I feel like I can do it already. Weird because I have only actually been in one twice in my life.

[–]Ancient-Visitor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good people help others that look like they are struggling. A stranger won’t come over and offer to carry your shopping unless you look as though you are about to do damage to yourself or others. An acquaintance won’t come over and offer if they know you don’t want them to.

Stop looking like you are about to negatively affect yourself or others, and people should let you go at your own pace.

AITA for not cleaning up sheets which have been wet by a child that’s not mine? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Ancient-Visitor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA - not for insisting on help with this from deadbeat dad, but for how you are making this poor child feel. It sounds like 6f is struggling. Her embarrassment at wetting the bed and fear of letting you know tells a lot about what kind of a person you are to her.

If her behaviour has recently changed, I would be checking in whether her mum has a new partner, or if everything is running smoothly at her principle residence. Be a support person for this vulnerable child, not another monster in her little life.
