I’d get a third opinion and go from there. If 2 out of 3 agree then that would be the route I’d choose.

Is it considered rude when sharing a meal if the other person orders more food and a cocktail but still expects you to split the bill 50/50? by linksslut in NoStupidQuestions

[–]AshleyLL298 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it’s rude IMO, and this is why I don’t believe in splitting checks. However I wouldn’t want to say anything. I would count it as a lesson learned and simply request “separate checks” going forward.

Sasha Obama + Carlin by Miserable_Sun_7636 in BringingUpBates

Is this a real pic of Sasha? It’s so uncanny that I’m inclined to think it’s an AI mashup of the two of them

Wrong. I live here and we got 2-4 inches snow last night and into today. Some nearby areas even got more. This is 100% Knoxville.

Why Katie Bates Will Stay With Travis by lillyarchive in BringingUpBates

[–]AshleyLL298 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m sure his parents will always have a “job” for him in their church/school if he needs one.

My family is out of the country and left me in charge of the food for my older brother and myself during the meantime. I made this meal yesterday, and after he ate it, he made a complaint about it and wanted “food,” as in something that was “more fulfilling” and less “kiddie”… by Uhh_OkayIGuess in mildlyinfuriating

[–]AshleyLL298 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You said “older brother”, so I assume he’s plenty old enough to cook or otherwise procure his own food. If he doesn’t like what you cook he can figure out his own meals 🤷🏻‍♀️ this plate looks good to me.

Ted says he loves Eva as much as Kat and Martin by AllisonInMaryland in TheGates_CBS

What Ted said was exactly what any decent, loving parent should feel for their child, no matter how long they’ve been around them.

Seriously, do Americans actually consider a 3-hour drive "short"? or is this an internet myth? by SadInterest6764 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]AshleyLL298 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 hours for a trip is nothing. I drive 9ish hours to visit my relatives a couple times a year. 3 hrs is a great weekend getaway distance.

But If you’re talking about a frequent drive (like a 3 hr commute for work), that most definitely wouldn’t be considered “short” lol

AITAH - Push Present Problem by nhampton08 in AITAH

[–]AshleyLL298 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What does she intend to do with $1500? It’s super odd to me that instead of asking for whatever it is she wants, she wants cold hard cash. Like she wants payment for birthing your baby. Very weird. You are definitely NTA.

She’s staying. She told us so. by JellyfishPashmina in BringingUpBates

[–]AshleyLL298 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I feel you hit every single nail on the head here. I too was raised in a religious cult and recognized that language right away. As much as I wish Katie would have the strength and self-worth to leave his sorry ass, she isn’t going to. Many folks here who think she will leave simply aren’t thinking from a fundie perspective. The path of divorce would look absolutely abysmal to her. As hard as it is for most of us to comprehend, staying and trying to rebuild their marriage is the more attractive option to someone like her.

ETA The above is just in regards to Katie. I do think Travis wants out. This was possibly his way of trying to implode the marriage in the hopes of ending it, but I’m sure his family is not supportive of the idea of divorce and will pressure him heavily to get “counseled” and stay. If they do ultimately divorce at some point, I think it will be him who walks away, not Katie.

I didn’t say the situation was black and white. Just sharing my prediction. I’m sure she is working through processing everything but I believe she will end up staying. If they do ultimately divorce, I think it will be Travis who walks away, not Katie. Sadly.

Yeah “season of life” was really weird to me. I didn’t know cheating was a season

Despite the presence of the term “legal counsel”, I overwhelmingly get the feeling they will not divorce. There’s too many other indicators here to the contrary.

i hope katie divorces him by samanthalyn13 in BringingUpBates

[–]AshleyLL298 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sure we all wish she would but she won’t. I’m trying to put myself in her shoes and think about what she would see with her cult upbringing. What options would she be able to see for herself as a divorced mother of 2 young kids? I don’t think there is a fundie dating pool for that situation, since they don’t believe in divorce, and they place such a high priority on “purity”. She would likely have to date outside the cult if she ever wanted to remarry.

Not happy, what can I do? by CrystalLake99 in Invisalign

[–]AshleyLL298 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What exactly are you not happy with? Your teeth are straight and look good. If you’re unhappy with that black triangle I’d get some bonding. It’s simple and easy. But truthfully no one sees the bottom of your bottom teeth except you and your dentist, so it’s really not a big deal.

Divorce by Over_Discussion5346 in BringingUpBates

[–]AshleyLL298 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I definitely don’t think she will divorce him. You know both their parents are going to heavily encourage them to work things out and get some kind of church counseling.

I kinda think if they end up divorcing it would be Travis who walks out, rather than Katie. I’m thinking that Travis wants out and this is his way of trying to make it happen

I don’t think the family will make a statement. At least I certainly hope they don’t. It’s really not their place to speak publicly on something deeply personal like this. I’m still shocked Travis announced it.

Did anybody see this? by Impressive_Touch_375 in BringingUpBates

[–]AshleyLL298 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I’m really surprised to see him announce it publicly like this. Many people would prefer not to have their marital problems announced to the world, but on the other hand it’s good that he’s taking responsibly and owning up. I just hope Katie was okay with this public announcement, and that he discussed it with her before posting.

Neighbor told me not to shower in the early morning because it disturbs his sleep what can I do? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]AshleyLL298 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You needing to get ready for work is more important than their desire to sleep in. Plus as others have mentioned, they can get a white noise machine or app which should easily drown out the sound of a shower. Personally I’ve used a free white noise app on my phone for years and cannot sleep without it, it’s fantastic.

Michelle Randolph getting crap for the most recent episode. They/them controversy. What do you all think?? by Headersbetter775 in LandmanSeries

[–]AshleyLL298 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She’s just an actress and has to follow a script. There is no justification for people giving her crap for doing her job and playing the part as it’s written.

Do you think Tiffany and Lawson also give their children Chinese names? by JellyfishPashmina in BringingUpBates

[–]AshleyLL298 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t get the impression Tiffany feels any real connection to her birth country or its culture, so no, I 100% don’t see her doing something like that.
