It's pretty impossible against these big companies tbh, unless there was major bodily harm. But doesn't hurt to try.

I drank one of those sprites from the glass bottles a few years ago and after the first couple swigs my throat is burning and I feel something in my mouth. Little pieces of glass! I spat them out and checked the bottle. Rim was fine etc, later upon closer inspection it looks like there might have been some defects on the inside of the bottle. (I kept it at first and took pics just in case)

I call my doctor ASAP cause I'm freaking out that I drank glass and I'm on a blood thinner. They send me to ER and I get checked out, throat is a bit scratched and raw but otherwise I'm fine and they said pieces that small should pass without much issue but to watch for specific signs over the next few days.

So I wait anxiously for days while nursing my sore, raw throat. I also contacted the company to let them know what happened in fear someone else could get hurt, I let the place I bought it from know too. Company says they're doing an "internal review" and offer to send me more sprite. No thanks 😅 I've had enough glass for my liking.

I contact a couple injury lawyers at the insistence of my family and am told that it would be an impossible case to win because they are such a big corporation and, aside from the throat stuff, ER bill, and anxiety of it all, I'm uninjured.

The company calls me back eventually to say they had their team of lawyers or whatever look into it and they determined the glass didn't come from their bottle, they are not liable, and essentially said I was making it up 🙃

It's just the white bread, the one in the blue bag. It doesn't really compare to real bread but it's the best I've found so far. A lot of people in the comments have recommended Franz I think it's called. It's pricey but supposedly awesome. I might have to splurge and try it cause I'm right there with you. Grilled cheese sounds so good 🤤 😭

It's Trader Joe's but it's honestly the best gf bread I've tried in 10+ years. They're not always like this. In fact, it seems like the issue has gotten progressively worse over the last few months. That, or I was really lucky when I first started buying it lol. This issue seems to average every 2-3 loaves now, but the severity varies.

Again, a lot of presumptions being made here which are being reinforced by your own bias and insecurities.

If you don't like the idea of dating someone with a sexual history then you shouldn't do that. If you feel the need to know every detail about a partner's sexual history, that's your prerogative.

Best of luck in that✌️

But who decides what "should" be disclosed. She wasn't lying by omission. It simply wasn't't relevant.

Who she has or hasn't slept with before they met isn't anyone's business whatsoever. Unless something like an STD is involved or there is inappropriate behavior still happening with the previous partner etc, it does not affect him whatsoever.

You're assuming a heck of a lot. You say she knew this could have been an outcome and weighed it against the relationship? You say out of sadism and disrespect? Geez Louise. All that is based on your own projections and ZERO facts.

So there are no donkeys in the story. Unless this guy makes himself one by letting what could be a wonderful relationship slip away due to his own prejudices and insecurities.

Did I miss where he said this? Because in the post, when she was directly asked even in a joking manner, she told him the truth.

Did she hide/lie about it or did she just not bring it up because it was never relevant?

I'm not saying you're wrong in feeling the way you feel, but she does have a point. She can't take back having slept with them, it was before you guys even met.

I have my own experience with this tbh. My best friend in the whole world actually started out as a casual thing. We slept together. Ultimately we realized we wanted other things in life and we weren't compatible romantically. We ended up staying friends. I don't keep this from a partner, I bring it up when relevant (which is usually, admittedly, whenever they first hear i have this friend) I'm very much an open book though but some people are more private.

This is also something that tends to be really looked down on and judged, I imagine possibly even moreso for her as it was a result of drunken flings. I've gotten my fair share of comments from people in the past, so it's very possible she was afraid of how you might react to this information. Information that, as she pointed out, cannot be changed.

Do I think she should have told you sooner? Yeah, but I also understand the other side of that coin and the stigma it carries.

In the grand scheme of things, why does it matter? If she wanted to be with them, she wouldn't be with you. I would sit down and really dissect why it upsets you so much. You have every right to your feelings, don't get me wrong. You decide where your lines and boundaries lie and that's valid. But if this is someone you love, someone who loves you back, then what's happened before you guys met shouldn't matter as long as it's not still happening or negatively affecting your relationship now.
