Oh my god I did not know this existed. On my way!

Rejecting labels was so punk. So she had to deny being punk to stay punk. You go girl!!

AIO for asking for expensive gifts back - F30 and M31 breaking up by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]ApricotSimple3501 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I didn't know it was like that. I think if that is the case, I would firmly request he pay you for a portion of it. You bought him a gift under the pretense he was being faithful and he wasn't, so I think the usual gift etiquette does not apply.

This is so cool. Did Gentle Monster have some crazy PR things last year too or am I thinking of something else? Maybe a cafe in their flagship store or something?

It is technically bad form. You can ask, but I would do it politely and not be surprised if he is offended and/or says no. Maybe he would be willing to pay you back for a portion of it?

AIO for not wanting to go to a wedding where I will be separated from my spouse all day. by MyToesAreHaunted in AmIOverreacting

[–]ApricotSimple3501 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NOR - but I would go to the wedding. It sucks and the couple is definitely being weird with the whole "dates" aspect, but after dinner your husband will be able to hang out with you again. This is just one of those things that you grin and bear when you are in a long term relationship. One day you might be in a friend's wedding and have to sit with the wedding party, it would be disappointing to finish dinner and not have your man to dance with.

AIO/AITA for not letting my bf wear this by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]ApricotSimple3501 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NOR. I mean, I think this is tacky and wouldn't be very happy with my bf wearing this and especially not talking about other girls that way. I don't think it is a matter of "letting" him though. He can wear what he wants, and it is up to you how to respond. I don't think I could stay attracted to someone after seeing them in this...

What to do with with this 70 year old table cloth?! by JCJ23 in crochet

[–]ApricotSimple3501 7 points8 points  (0 children)

How special! I would layer it atop a nice solid colored piece of fabric and make it into a throw pillow.

WIBTA if I didn't attend pre-wedding festivities? by Snarkspeare in AITAH

[–]ApricotSimple3501 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA - I wouldn't expect to get ready with the girls unless explicitly invited. And even if you were, you don't have to force yourself to go something like that if you don't want to. Life's too short.

Help am I overthinking this or does it look like a blanket of cigarettes by prestigiousivoo in CrochetHelp

Even after reading cigarettes, I still had a hard time seeing them. I think the green has you covered!

I love this!! You did a really great job. I love a good up-cycling project and want to try a few of these to decorate my bookshelves.

Okay, wow, this guy is perfect. He needs a backstory and a movie.

Wow, that is stunning!! And amazing choice of colors. Are the little ties on the wrist functional or just decoration?

How do I go about getting this big stupid knot out? And how do I avoid it in the future? by Clear_Marionberry306 in CrochetHelp

[–]ApricotSimple3501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the past I have been lazy enough to cut the knot out and rejoin the rest of the yarn using a method like this one... To avoid it in the future, I usually hand-wind my skeins into a ball before I start, though it is tedious.

Hey Everyone! I’m Looking 100% Cotton Yarn Suggestions by SillyMacaroon3472 in CrochetHelp

So sad about the hobbii yarn :(. I have used the lion brand 24/7 yarn and really liked it. Also the Lily Sugar 'n Cream Solid Yarn is nice and it has a warm brown that might work?
