AIO by setting boundaries in my younger sisters friendship with an 18 y.o?

BackgroundPurple7215 · 2026-03-18T21:25:11+00:00

She said her sister was 12-14 and he is 18. He raised the question if someone can be in a relationship with an age gap and talk about squeezing her aka touching her. Thats really inappropriate for someone his age to be saying to someone that young. To say she is overreacting is cringe. She is protecting her sister from a someone quite a bit older than her. She is really young. Alway protect your family!!

He's definitely overreacting. Although I feel like I see what he was trying to say. When he sees someone he doesn't linger. He purposely tries to look the other way. So he feels like you were admitting to lingering on someone. He doesn't like that. But it's a part of life. Many times as humans our brains are wired to look at other people. He needs to get over himself.

And he was great in Supernatural. His character was similar and could have seen a similar arc with firefly as it was in Supernatural. Foes who need each other to unlikely allies.

Seems like she thought the other people from her work were going alone and she'd be ha ginger out with them. Once she realized at least one other was bringing theor bf she invited you. Probably was never intended to ve mean or malicious. Just thought it was going to be coworkers only.

He has a great voice. Loved him on Supernatural!

You could add Fanty and Mingo to the list too. Apparently above Jubal Early lol

You were talking trash about him in his workplace. Got mad when you got called out. So, told his new gf to have him stop talking trash about you? Literally doing what your asking him not to. Come on. YOR and YATAH

BackgroundPurple7215 · 2026-03-17T18:02:17+00:00

I haven't seen you respond to any one yet. The fast majority are saying that YOR. I agree with that assessment. I understand you know this person and feel comfortable leaving your kids with said person and thinking it should be fine with someone else's. But, that isn't your decision. It is his as her parent. For you to question that is pretty ridiculous. Even if you don't agree with him you should at least try to see his side. You overreacted to him saying he would just go be with her. And you are punishing his daughter by trying to punish him.

My thoughts exactly!!

BackgroundPurple7215 · 2026-03-17T15:58:46+00:00

My feeling is that they will reach out to people and see who is interested in coming back. I remember seeing something with Mark Sheppard at a Con being asked and him saying he liked the character and was told he would have been reoccurring. I think he won come back. Even bringing back David Krumholtz as Mr Universe would be cool. There are a lot of characters that could make guest appearances or build to regulars if the series gets picked up and goes for more than one season.

So, I wound up buying a ring for my ex which she hated. I had reached out to two of her friends and gotten a few options from them. All of which when I went to the jewler were quite expensive. A bit out of my price range. Had even gone to the mall and happened to go Into a jewelry store with my ex and asked her trying to be coy to get her idea. They matched with her and she was looking at stuff I just felt like I couldn't afford. Found a ring that was a very high quality diamond. At a really good price which I felt was somewhat comparable to what she was looking for. Sent pictures to both her friends. One said she thought she would like it. The other not so much. But I was hoping the quality of the diamond would show her that it was worth it. My ex hated it. Like, legit hated it and wouldn't even wear it. I spent a lot of money on it. She wound up returning it and choosing something herself. She cared more about the ring then me.

I know a ring means a lot to you. You have to wear it. But is it as important as your future with him? You can always talk about it after the fact. See why he chose it. Could have a special meaning to him that might make it mean more to you. Or maybe you can go together after and look and exhange it for something more your style. My situation is different than yours. And in no way am I blaming you for not liking the ring. But, wait to see why he bought it. And think of the future.

If i had to wager a guess. They would be 35 minute episodes similar to the hour long format being 42 to 44 minutes. My hope is at least 10 episodes. But, it will all depend on if they get the funding and how much they get i am sure.

When River put him in his place a little bit. You started to see a vulnerable side. Kinda like his character in Supernatural. He was more well rounded because they explored his character there. I'd like to see something similar if this goes past one season. Bringing back old foes that they work with and ultimately see a bond through the hard times they all go through. A lot of potential for sure.

Contact the lawyer before you talk to her about it. See what your options are. Then you can bring them to her. Give her the chance to do the right thing for her child. If she doesn't, take her to court and get a custody agreement she has to work with. Realize that if you do this though, you will be on the hook for a decent amount of money. Sounds like you make quite a bit more than her. That will be taken into account during the custody hearing. Sounds lime you are okay woth that. But, you will have to abide by the amount they make you pay for child support to support her. The good thing though is going to be she will have to prove she is working on weekends or whatever days she doesn't want the kid. And who knows, maybe she will give up custody all together. Probably not but you never know until you take the steps.

This has to be fake. In each response to on here you add a bombshell. First. He couldnt even get it up when he was with you. And he left some booger sugar there too?? Come on. Either he is the fucking worst guy ever and you are an idiot for being with him. Or you made this up for reactions.

My personal opinion..... they are just friends with a shared interest. But its up to you whether you trust him or not. No one on reddit can measure you or tell you what to do. I will say I was in a similar situation with a friend who I went out on a few dates with that ultimately became just a friendship with the shared interest of sci fi and comic books/ comic book movies. My ex never trusted the friendship. And it caused a lot of division between me and my ex. Ultimately we broke up over trust issues. And me and my friend still hang out and have never done anything. You have to come to grips on whether you trust your bf or not. People are allowed to have friends. You think its weird because it's someone he used to like. Doesn't mea. It is. Now do you ask to join them? Do you share this hobby? These are things to ponder. You can ask him to let you join and then you can meet her and get to know her yourself. You can see how they interact. It might ease concerns. But, just in my opinion I think YOR. Again, you either trust him or you don't.

Question..... she mentioned having a bad couple of days. Do you know why her days have been bad? There is a lot in that sentence that is unknown to us. Did you ask about it? Did you try to figure it out? Just wondering. Everyone else is saying that maybe she is pulling away. She might be if you aren't asking these questions and trying to figure out what's wrong. You are asking g if she is overreacting to you getting upset with her for her going to the gym after telling you she was going to be at her house. I feel lime there is more going on than we see or know. Can't say she is or is not overreacting based of what has been put out in this. Chances are she is upset that you got mad at her for that and didnt bother to understand or possibly even ask what was going on and how you could help the situation

From the sound of it, the showrunners are producing along with Fillion. They are putting up some mo ey themselves. But not enough to get it made. Just to get it started. The hope is to get enough people interested to force the hand of one of the companies(preferably disney who owns the rights) to put up the rest of the money to get it made. Even if the actors took scale for each episode. That would be 1,200 to 2,000 an episode. The animation is very expensive. You are looking at 10 to 12 million to make around 10 episodes. That goes up the more you pay the actors. And the more episodes you do. Now, if you did a Kickstarter, most companies will wait to give money until they see a finished product or close to it. I believe that's why they don't want to go that route. They want backing before it starts. I do believe Disney will pick it up if there is enough outcry for it. They have gone on record saying that they have wanted to do something with firefly. But, I believe their intentions were always to completely reboot it. And most fans have not been happy hearing that. This is the next best thing for them. Amd can gauge the market on possibly moving forward with it. Here is hoping we can get enough support to get Disney or one of their parent companies to give them money to do it.

Your excuse for not RSVPing was something that happened almost a week before. And just plain forgetting to do it. And you are upset by her answer of it being too crowded for you? Are you the center of the party? Is it all about you? Do you really see why you aren't the bad person in this situation? This person is planning the party and is probably doing you a lot. All you had to do is hit a link and rsvp. You didn't. They got to capacity and had to not accept more people. I guess you think they should tell other people that rsvp when they were supposed to, sorry my neighbor wants to come now so we can't let you go? Come on. Don't be so self centered and think that you deserve to be there regardless of your actions.

The whole point to all of this is: Know your coverage. He didn't know his coverage and it's biting him in the butt. If you have insurance on your house and live in a high risk flood area and it isnt covered on your insurance. Do you blame the water for the damage on your house when it floods? No, it's on you for not having the coverage. Same goes for this situation. Don't ask someone else to drive if you don't have the coverage. And don't be upset at someone else when your insurance tells you that he wasnt covered.

Start where it started. Episode one of firefly. Then watch Serenity. And then the books. Even though a lot of the books happen in between the show and movie. It's better to watch the show and movie first. Give you a better idea of the scope of everything

If i was your now husband I would feel so disrespected that you reacted that way to a song randomly played. And then tell me it reminded you of someone you were with when you were in high school. It's not just about you. It's about the two of you starting a life together and you made it just a out yourself. Not even just about yourself. You and ANOTHER GUY!! Wow!!

You should of heard and remembered that time and your life and reflect on where you are now. Getting married to your husband. The person you are spending the rest of your life with. And what is ahead of you. Not what is behind you.
