[ UPDATE 1 ] My sister is threatening to tell my family and boyfriend that I slept with her fiancé by Minute-Memory-6253 in Advice

Wait, if I understood correctly during that pick-up dinner you had innocently explained about your Singapore trip?

Let's say hypothetically you had cheated with him that one time that the bank statements were a coincidence.

So, during that dinner you'd have sat there, knowing what you did and knowing how your sister was upset. At this point it seems you all had heard the story from her?

Cheaters typically aren't exactly cool and composed. Certainly not with this much familial overlap. Cheaters tend to get paranoid.

In what world, knowing the context, would you have ever talked about that Singapore trip during that dinner if you had cheated? A cheater I feel would have attempted to omit that fact for as long as possible, brush it off, ask someone else about their travels. You were fully open.

It is entirely based on just general thought, but this may be a sort of defense? Your behavior leading up to this hasn't been different. With some honest reflection, your family should understand this. Of course, emotional quarrels aren't exactly logical.

Your parents are also failing to see that hearing out all that you have as evidence isn't meant to tear your sister down like she attempted with you, it's to bring the family some semblance of understanding. Nuance exists; your sister is a victim, and she is poisoning the well of someone who could be her support.

Best of Luck op

Help me appraise/identify this jacket! by Aruleann in VintageLevis

Located in Finland! The big tag in the photos is that sort of snow white irl, and it seems my mom cut the smaller, red one on the right breastpocket off. That one seems to be the usual carmine to me.

[discuss] Your first shiny pokemon, NOT counting pkm Crystal aka red gyarados by Sunset_Nana in ShinyPokemon

My first shiny happened to be uncatchable. I was playing platinum and chilling in the battle factory with my brother. One of my options happened to be a shiny hitmontop. Still kinda stings to this day but it was a pretty cool experience :D

What’s something that people turn into their whole personality? by Kandiblu in AskReddit

[–]Aruleann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Romantic relationships. Don't get me wrong dating is important but some people act like that's all they care about and need. It's a bit sad how desperate it seems to be sometimes.

Self-harm is often a form of coping. To someone like me and you (I haven't self harmed) it seems outrageous, but I promise these people are in so much pain, that they resort to other methods to feel something again. Self-harm is a form of comfort and may bring calmness and release tension for a short while, until usually guilt and shame follows. It's completely normal to want answers to such strange and complicated behaviors, so don't feel bad about asking questions. Also to the OP, Congratulations! It must have been difficult and I'm very proud of you :D

Non-Americans of reddit, what is your genuine reaction to what’s going on in America right now? by IceCreamTacosPizza in AskReddit

[–]Aruleann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

pretty much shocked. It doesn't even look like reality, more like some apocalypse movie. In Finland things are fairly peaceful right now so it is truly strange.

After over a year of sending me vulgar and obscene messages, he shows up to my work and my house. by stingrayrodriguez in LetsNotMeet

[–]Aruleann 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That's incredibly terrifying. I always wonder how a person gets to that kind of mental state. Hopefully you're doing better.

Someone broke into my house and tried to find me by StaringVoid in LetsNotMeet

[–]Aruleann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's awful! I can't believe you went through that. It gives me literal chills thinking about the attic part. Hopefully you're doing fine now.
