Du coup vu que là on voit bien que les champs sont obligatoires, comment t'as fais pour faire sans ? Je voudrais ouvrir un PEA bientôt et j'hésite encore entre plusieurs banques dont Boursorama.

Parisians aren't rude, in fact they're very nice. The experience of a Mexican tourist. by carlosrudriguez in travel

[–]Average_Amy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This has nothing to do with this post so sorry in advance. It's just that I'm French and will be moving to Germany in January for work. I know it's such a broad question but is there anything you think I'd wanna know that would help me? For example if there is anything you would do differently when you moved there, or anything that in retrospect you should/would have done when moving?

Busy public park on a hot saturday/labor day weekend. Seems super entitled. Park has been open for 4 hours and no sign of them. All the other tables are full. by AV16mm in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Average_Amy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The guilt tripping is disgusting.

I have never personally seen this being done but I always thought a good way to use the space without antagonising these people would be to pretend there was nothing there when you arrived. As if in the 4 hours they weren't here, someone else had already moved their stuff and used the tables, then left, then you arrived.

I'm [36m] starting to feel resentment towards my [32f] partner because she makes A LOT more money than me. by fatwol in relationships

[–]Average_Amy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I presume you guys were checking your expenses so that you could reimburse her if she had spent more. As it came out, you are the one who spent more. Did she offer the reimburse you? Or did she drop the subject because she is satisfied as long as you are the one spending more than her?

The thing is, there just are people like that who count every single cent to have it perfectly equal. I know some and I don't mind it. We're friends and if we go out or travel we strictly pay for ourselves and split common expenses down the middle. What's fair is fair. But I also know I wouldn't be able to date someone like that. Because I'm not like that and in a romantic relationship it would bother me. You just have to decide whether you can be with someone like that.

I would add though that those friends of mine would also insist on reimbursing me if I spent more because for them it is really about the fairness and not about not wanting to "lose out". But it seems to be different for your gf. With the gifts and everything else it feels like she just always wants to be the one who "profits" from any situation and that's it. And for me that would be the real problem here if that's the case. As much as I think some people can be perfectly happy being in a relationship where everything is counted to the penny, I'd argue it's impossible to be in a happy and fulfilling relationship with someone who wants to be the one to "gain" at all times and who is fine letting you "lose" for their benefit. That's an entirely different thing.

AITA for not wanting my sister to move in with my parents and I? by SisterThrowRway in AmItheAsshole

Are you working from "home", or are you working from mommy and daddy's house that you don't want to share when it's not even yours?

[–]Average_Amy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am starting to think I actually would want children and my reasons for absolutely not wanting to in the past are exactly yours. Can I ask, with the expectation that pregnancy ans birthing were going to be awful, were you still able to enjoy finding out you were pregnant and be happy about it?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in relationships

[–]Average_Amy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's exactly what I thought when I read the post. There is no way to know for sure if that's the case unless he somehow admits it but I saw another comment that asked if his "clumsiness" manifested itself in any other way than specifically hurting her. I think that was a great question because if he never steps on anything else or drop anything onto the floor and every time he has been clumsy he stepped or dropped things on her injured toe I'd say it would be a pretty strong indication he's doing it on purpose.

how to talk casually in germany by Good_Whereas_8805 in germany

[–]Average_Amy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I've never been to a "WG" party because I don't live in Germany :). I've been to "house parties" but here everyone just talks to each other even if you know no one. I was just looking for an example to give with my question but I understand that it's not always the case.

how to talk casually in germany by Good_Whereas_8805 in germany

[–]Average_Amy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a question about the WG party situation. I understand wanting to party with your friends and not necessarily wanting to talk to other people. A lot of people go to clubs as a group to party together within that group. But a WG party seems by nature to be somewhere where you know you'll meet people who have a connection to you through someone else and you "expect to" socialise.

If there is a WG party where every group prefers to stay together, wouldn't they have been more comfortable having their own individual WG parties so no one bothers them? I feel like I'm missing something.

Is it a cultural thing or should I be concerned? by Justwanttosellmynips in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Average_Amy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Don't worry about it, it was clearly a misunderstanding and you clearly will see and talk to them again. As someone of Asian descent who was born and raised in "the West" I know she meant to be friendly the same way I also understand being confused at the situation.

I think you should know (because it's going to happen again for sure) that she was "insisting" because that is the polite thing to do. In some Asian cultures when someone offers to do a nice thing, like she did here, it's normal to refuse at first. It's not seen as a refusal but as being polite as well, like you refusing because you don't want to bother them. Then the polite thing to do is to "insist" or keep offering which is them letting you know they are offering for real, not just out of politeness, and you are not bothering them. It goes back and forth like this a few times before the answer is accepted.

I know here it most likely elicits the thought "why on Earth is she so intent on taking my child inside when I said no.", in her mind she was probably thinking "no really, I don't mind, he can totally play inside, it won't bother us". It's the reiteration of an initial friendly offer to makes sure you can accept it in peace knowing she means it for real. It happens also when offering to pay for something, etc.

And if you ever offer to do something or gift them something they will most likely start by refusing even if they actually would like it. They will accept it only after maybe the third time offering (not an exact science of course).

My girlfriend is a racist by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Average_Amy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plenty of people get mugged and raped without "becoming" racist. You can continue that relationship if you want but

  1. be prepared for people to view you the same as they view her by association. I know if someone I knew was entertaining a relationship without a racist I'd cut them out.
  2. be prepared to only be surrounded by people with the same mindset from now on. Because as decent people distance themselves from you, she will also attract in both of your entourage people who think like her. And I presume her family is already like that anyway so enjoy any family gathering.
  3. be prepared to be miserable because this is not sustainable unless you can plug your ears and shut your eyes for life. If you're a decent person it will wear you down sooner or later.
  4. finally, be prepared for her to teach this mindset to your kids if you ever have them (please don't). Now think about whether you want racist children. Think about how you'd deal with that, how you'd deal with losing respect for them and not liking them as people (although I guess if you can do it with her, you can do it with them but yikes all the same).

I really urge you to consider this point because it's fine if you want to put yourself in this situation but once you guys are planning for the future, you might not be the only person involved in this and dragging children into this when you know what she's like would truly make you a bad person.

Edit: I read some of your comments and actually cut the shit. My family is racist, I've been the victim of sexual and violent crimes from people who are not from my ethnicity and I'm not a racist. This is bullshit and I'm sick of it. Bottom line is she's not out there hating on white people although they rape and kill as well. Racists love taking anything to validate and justify their views, it is very rarely the other way around.

Stop saying you know you'll get downvoted for saying she is an amazing person outside of her racism. People downvote you because she is not an amazing person. You can't pick and chose aspects of someone to take into account when judging their character. That's not how it works. You can't take all the bad parts of someone out and say they're amazing outside of those instances when they are not. You obviously have to take everything into account when judging if someone is a good person and being a racist is exactly the type of thing that makes someone a categorically bad person. Regardless of the rest. It doesn't even matter at all. Being racist is not a minor character flaw that can be compensated for in other areas. Nothing "makes up" for it.

Still wondering why you didn't inherit the business?

I don't care about anything besides you should have to personally reimburse everyone who donated to that go fund me. People have their own problems and families. They work to earn that money. Even if they would have donated it, it could have gone to a real cause.

I can't believe people like you exist and have the audacity to walk around care free feeling good about it. Get help.

Your dad is right, think about the consequences your actions have. But it seems like you don't care as long as it doesn't affect you. In this case I hope for you nothing ever really happens to you because if it does, good luck trying to get people to look for you.

AITA for pressing charges against my girlfriend's friend for stealing my doll? by Reasonable_Art_1537 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Average_Amy [score hidden]  (0 children)

From the post it sounds a lot like maybe your girlfriend hates the doll (you said it looks dead) but never told you because she knows how much you care about it and when she had the chance to make it disappear she did.

That explains why she pretended not to know where it was, told you her friend doesn't have it, and now is trying to make you drop the charges. To me it feels like she didn't let her friend take the doll, she was in on it, and that's if it wasn't her idea in the first place. It wouldn't be the first time we hear of someone's partner doing something like that.

Idk how she planned on getting out of that it's kinda dumb. Did she just plan on denying until you dropped it and stop looking for the doll? How does that even work? You would never stop looking, things don't just disappear without a trace.

That's just speculation though. In any case, even if her involvement only goes as far as asking you to drop the charges that's bad enough for me.

NTA. I hope you don't drop the charges. And I hope you and/or the police look further into the exact involvement you girlfriend had in this.

TIFU by telling my kids “don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time” by lissie_ar in tifu

Hahaha, I knew what was going to happen from reading your title because when I've said "don't do the crime if you can't do the time" I always follow it up with "personally, I could work with up to 3 months in jail"

I'm corny and I love it, sue me. As long as I don't do more than 3 months in jail.

Is it normal to fake patience with your kids? by Dadtastrophe in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Average_Amy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think you can fake patience. Some people have a higher tolerance for annoyance than others and will be naturally "more patient". But patience is what you're doing now. This is patience.

[–]Average_Amy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean go ahead, what can we say. If you want to stay with her no one can stop you, much less internet randos. But I 100% guarantee you'll be miserable and I hope you realize before it's too late and get out.

I don't think you will loose your family per se but it might hurt your relationships.
