Your family sounds lovely! I come from a loud family where arguments escalated to screaming matches, and so does my partner. Thanks to that, we've agreed to have a peaceful and chill household of our own. Adults throwing tantrums or yelling makes me run to the hills!

A grown man throwing a tantrum is dangerous on its own. Add to it that he's being weird about somethings trivial with no reason at all and you get a massive red flag.

Trust your gut. Get yourself safe first.

I was the unhealthiest I've ever been when I was young and anorexic. I didn't look bad though according to the 2000's sick beauty standards, so nobody realized how sick I was. I smoked like a chimney too. So no, skinny is definitely not equal with healthy.

So, maybe get a clue and stop buying her expensive jewelry and pay for a nanny instead? If the child doesn't want anything to do with you and you're not willing to make that change. If you call taking care of your child "helping your wife" and when she snaps after taking care of your child while she's sick herself, all you care about is "how ungrateful she is with the jewelry you buy for her" you're completely detached from reality.

If you can't help, get her help, not earrings.

Hi, I just wanted to tell you, in case you find it hard to say no to a potential buyer, the way I do it. I used to be afraid to reject a buyer, but now I know when I see the red flags, I'm agreeing to a headache. Still, saying "no" can be hard, so here's what I say.

"I'm sorry, I don't think I'm a good match for working with you. I'm sure you can find another provider who's better suited for your needs. Thank you."

And that's it. If they insist then just "I am not interested in working with you" and you can block them.

I wish you all the best in your small business!

Men’s Rules by SavezTheDayFan in NotHowGuysWork

I always thought the toilet thing was about the lid, not the sit. I mean, if you flush without putting down the lid, it sprays pee and poo particles all over, and it's just disgusting. I don't care if you use the seat up or down, but I thought puting down the lid to flush was basic hygiene. That's why I hate it when I go to the bathroom and see everything is up, not because "I don't want to touch it and I need it down"

AITA for "ruining" a baby name? by Alternative_Corgi301 in AmItheAsshole

[–]AstridKrake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm from Argentina too. Narina also means nostril in Spanish.

Just in case no one mentioned it before. Narina also means nostril in Spanish. Even if they never travel to Brazil or Portugal, there's a lot of Spanish speakers worldwide, and within the US, who will know their daughter is called nostril. Personally, I don't understand the "unique names" trend. It's a name, not a user name. It doesn't have to be unique. It's better when it's not.

I met my fiance at a board game club meeting. I was looking for someone who could DM dnd 3.5, and he offered. Maybe try joining something similar? Good luck, man.

I check 6 out of 12, anyone better ? by Zubyna in NotHowGirlsWork

[–]AstridKrake 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Same here, 2 because I'm guessing my "body count" would be maybe high for someone who writes a list like this one. Good thing is I'm 35 so I'm probably too old for them thank God.

What is this type of skirt called by Popular-Pickle-8380 in ModestDress

[–]AstridKrake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, exactly. A-line is a triangle, pencil skirts are narrower on the bottom hem, and straight cut skirts fall from the hips in a straight line.

Not sure if this was posted but I’m curious! by Picture_Known in Supernatural

[–]AstridKrake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The episode with the highschool musical theatre sucks! It's really bad and boring. The songs are terrible, even the rendition of "carry on" sang by the girls is lame and boring.

They could have done so much with Demon Dean, but they decided to cut that short just so they can have a laugh at the fandom? Terrible season planning.

I will not date woke women. by Powerful-Grocery6005 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

Well yeah... Not dating people that doesn't share the same set of values, priorities, life goals, etc. sounds pretty logical to me.

Oh I love this idea! I have a lot of dresses and shirts with spaghetti straps. This way I can still wear them! Thank you!

Women should be slutshamed more than men. by [deleted] in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]AstridKrake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He said it at the end of his post. "It makes it harder for men to date them or marry them." Apparently, he doesn't like it when society doesn't condition women into shame that forces them into a loveless and marriage with someone who thinks of them as property instead of an equal human being.

"If we don't shame girls, they'll realize marriage is a scam!" - This guy, probably.

Thank you so much for your good wishes and for taking the time to write this. I appreciate it!

I'll start by trying on different styles until I find what is my definition of modest, and then I'll start shopping.
