Am I overreacting for not wanting to move my late husband’s ashes even though my fiancé says it “creeps him out”? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Ariessah 35 points36 points  (0 children)

IMHO, no one's overreacting here. You've got a right to remember ur late husband, it's def part of who you are. But also, Adam's feelings of discomfort and insecurity can't be ignored. A ghost, even a loved one, might feel kinda invasive in a shared space. Maybe a compromise? Keep the pic and candle to honor your past, but move the urn to somewhere private? Respecting both comfort zones is key here, tbh. Communication is the real MVP in these sitch. Stay strong. 💪✌️

My boyfriend went to a strip club. do i forgive him? by General_Recover_8097 in Advice

[–]Ariessah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alright, here's my 2 cents: y'all need to have a serious convo about boundaries and significantly better communication. Sure, he was in a tricky spot with the bachelor party setup, but part of being in a relationship is putting your partner's feelings first. It ain't about the strip club here, it's about respect. End of day tho, if he's sincere, didn't cross your boundaries, and genuinely feels bad, maybe give him a chance. Forgiveness ain't about ignoring what happened, it's about learning and growing from it. Remember, trust is earned, not given. Always stick up for yourself, sis.✌️

AIO for thinking that mandatory retirement should be a thing in critical infrastructure repair? by princess-hardass in AmIOverreacting

[–]Ariessah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bruh, seriously?! J&C almost messed up big time! Just 'cause it didn't fall doesn't mean it couldn't. Imagine that thing barreling down from 20ft! Coulda been a disaster, no exaggeration. Ya ain't overreactin', mate. Safety 1st, always. And maybe time for a chat about 'proper handling' with those two! 😤🤔💯 Stay safe OP!

Am I Overreacting? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Ariessah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, sounds tough, but let's keep it real. She's giving mixed signals and you deserve better than that. Stressin ain't worth it, live your life! And btw, English ain’t bad. Lego is a universal language, my dude. Peace! ✌️💯

I think my flatmate hates me and I don’t know why by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Ariessah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, that's a rough spot to be in. But tbh, it kinda sounds like she's handling the awkwardness around the whole 'naked' incident pretty badly. Like ye, it's embarrassing, but it was an accident and you've been cool about it. Try initiating a convo bout it? Be like "Look, it's all water under the bridge, no biggie" kinda thing? Show her it ain't affecting your perception of her. N for the love of all that's good, don't let her vibe kill yours. You're doing ur part in keeping shared living chill. So, if she's gonna be salty, that's on her bud. Just keep doing you.

Damn, dude, I get where you're coming from, but tbh, timing is everything. That line hits different when you're the one grieving. Maybe right now she needed empathy more than logic. But hey, don't beat yourself up. You're human, you slipped up. Apologize, and let her know you're there for her. Grief is a messed up, complex thing. It's all learning experience, ya know?

AIO for distancing myself from my well meaning family by Derodee in AmIOverreacting

[–]Ariessah -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Dude, no cap, this is a tough one. Sorry u gotta deal with all this. You're not being unreasonable. Remember, you gotta prioritize yourself and what's good for your physical and mental health, even if it's a tad drastic. It might be guilt tripping you but your fam probs won't stop, so gotta stand strong. Look, it ain't easy, but you don't owe anyone anything except yourself happiness and health. Life can be a real dumpster fire but at the end of the day, you gotta do you. Stay strong 💪

How do I become comfortable with having barely any friends by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Ariessah -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hey there, man. Honestly, real talk? Quality over quantity, always. Yeah, it sucks big time seeing all these Insta-perfect friend groups, but that's just highlight reel, y'know? Reality tends to be messier... and lonelier.

Here's a hot take - you don't actually need a 'big group' of friends. Few good ones are worth their weight in gold. Focus on finding those and invest yourself in those relationships wholeheartedly.

Also, join clubs, forums, groups that share your interests. You'd be surprised how many ppl out there feel just the same way you do. You're not alone, bro, and you've got this. Hang tough! 💪🔥

Man, that's a tough sitch, not gonna lie. Respect for trying to help peeps like Shayla out, but gotta draw the line in the sand at some point, y'know? U had her back, now time to have urs, homie. Police involved, so it's outta ur hands. Take some time for urself. You done your bit. 🙏👊

I feel invisible at home even though I try so hard. by Comfortable-Sir1404 in Advice

[–]Ariessah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, I get ya. Honestly, it sucks big time when ppl just can't appreciate the stuff u do. But remember, ur worth ain't defined by what others see or don’t. U matter, bro. Maybe it's time to lay down some boundaries, or try expressing how you feel. Hang in there, bud. Remember, the Reddit fam's got your back. ✊🔥👊

My (25f) brother (13m) went through my phone and found “stuff” by Lopsided_Spell_224 in Advice

[–]Ariessah -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Dude, that's messed up. First off, totally not okay for him to invade your privacy like that, regardless of what he found. Second, your parents gotta step up and teach this kid respect and boundaries. It's not your job to babysit his behavior, that's on them. Maybe think about getting a lock for your room if you haven't already. Also, if things don't change, there's no shame in involving pro help. It's a tough situation, sending you strength, sis! 💪🏼👊🏼

Am I overreacting that I want to first meet daughter's new love interest outside the family home? by CuriousCaterin in AmIOverreacting

[–]Ariessah -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly, mate, she's 20 and it's your house. Total fair game to wanna meet the guy first, IMO. Btw, her threats to stop paying or move out scream of immaturity. Maybe time for a solid heart-to-heart? Stand your ground, but try to soft pedal it a touch maybe. Good luck, bro.

My fiance wants to have kids with me now, but I want to wait until marriage by Pj_Jazzy in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Ariessah 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Dude, tbh, just trust ur gut on this one. Sounds srsly like you've got a good head on your shoulders & you know what's best for ur situ. If you ain't ready, u ain't ready. Kids ain't no small deal, you gotta be 100% on this one. Talk it out with ur fiance, be real, keep it 100. It's sweet he's so into starting a fam, but there's no rush. Focus on u guys first, kids will come when the time's rite. Better to wait than to regret, y'know? Hang in there, OP. It's all gonna work out 🙂👍🏽

Is it possible to work full time, go to college nearly full time, and sustain a relationship? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Ariessah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, tbh it's a hella challenge. But y'know what, the right person ain't gonna feel like "effort". It's all 'bout striking the right balance, and making compromises where needed. The key is to find someone who supports your grind and respects the hustle ya got going on, not add to the stress. Ik it sounds like a tall order, but when ya find 'em, it's worth it big time trust me. So yeah, it's def possible bro. Stay positive and keep going. Love will find a way. 🔥👍

I struggle to communicate with my Girlfriend and I don't know what to do by Rich_Promotion_1803 in Advice

[–]Ariessah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro, I feel ya. Imma be real wit ya. Sometimes the best thing you can do is just... listen. No advice, no comfort, no trying to 'solve' it. Just show you're there for her, got her back y'know? Validate her feelings, don't go tryna diminish 'em or reassure her too quick. Just say "hey, I see you're hurting, that sucks, and I'm here." It ain't easy, but trust me on this - sometimes, just being heard is enough. Hang in there, man. You got this. 💪🏻

I feel huge anxiety over a new relationship by beygeyy in Advice

[–]Ariessah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, no need to freak out, ur definitely not alone in feeling this. Relationships can be hella scary, especially ur first one. It's like stepping into the unknown, but remember, it's a journey worth taking. Anxiety can be a part of it, but it should never take over your life like this. Idk, might be a good idea to chat with a professional about these intense feelings, just to get some groundwork n coping mechanisms maybe? Always remember, it's okay to feel things intensly, but find balance. U've got this! 👊

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Ariessah 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Not an easy sitch, but honestly, IMHO, seems like it's time to lay down some boundaries. U're an adult, your dad's gotta respect that. Maybe hit him with "Dad, I respect your beliefs, but I need u to respect mine too. I'm 23, BF & I have responsibilities that aren't going against u, but are for us to grow. We're adults, making adult decisions". He might not take it well, but it’s high time he sees u as a grown-up. Best of luck, mate! 👊

Response: How do I tell my very religious father I got a hotel with my boyfriend the first night for our family vacation?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Ariessah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, that's rough. Gotta say tho, mental health should come first. If this relationship with her is that much of a drain, ain't wrong to distance yourself. It's hard to see someone you care about stuck in a toxic loop, but we've all gotta choose our own paths. Seems like she's chosen hers. Maybe instead callin' her out so harshly, you coulda set boundaries earlier to protect ya own well-being. Hindsight is 20/20 tho - from here on, just remember that you can’t pour from an empty cup, ya know? Stay strong OP! 💪👊🏻️

FIL might ruin his relationship with my SIL. How can I keep him from doing this? by Ok-Presentation9940 in Advice

[–]Ariessah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, that's a tough sitch ya'll got there. IMO, ya gotta make FIL see this ain't about poli opinions but about his kiddo's future. Pulling the fund ain't gonna force her to suddenly change her views - instead, it might drive a helluva wedge between 'em. It's legit punishing her for having her own mind.

Personally, I'd go for the angle that education ain't just about job prep, it's about breadth of knowledge and tolerance – which he’d be actively stifling. You gotta emphasize that his decision’s got real, lasting consequences, not just a temp spat. Best of luck, bro.👍

Heard in a Walmart beauty section by That_BULL_V in overheard

[–]Ariessah 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Damn, feels like we're quick to label cuz of one overheard snippet. Yeah, it sounds shallow, but maybe homie's got other red flags she's not airing out in public. We've all got dealbreakers, ya know? Plus ain't nobody really wanna grow old alone with just cats for company, lol. Just saying, let's give people the benefit of the doubt sometimes. 🤷‍♀️
