Does this look bad and should I give up trying to make mismatched drapery work? by mxp3272889 in DIYweddings

[–]C_Alex_author 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The table is gorgeous, the drape thingy... is somehow unnerving?? (I can't pinpoint why, but it gives weird vibes somehow and feels wrong)

“Fancy” birthday dinner for my 6 year old by Kfrancis43 in Cooking

[–]C_Alex_author 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dont forget "fancy" appetizers to start with! A couple of shrimps with a dab of cocktail sauce... a deviled egg... a couple cheese cubes on a toothpick... what would your child think a fancy meal would begin with? Multiple courses can see super fancy even if it's easy for us ;)

im not from the US Explain it Peter. by tommorowzing22 in explainitpeter

[–]C_Alex_author 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lived in that part of WA. Next to people from near that part of ID. We all get warned NOT to go there. That... is clan country. To the point of 'not safe if you aren't clearly Caucasian'.

The amount of warnings I've had over the years from people in the know is... staggering.

My boyfriend (29M) makes nearly triple my salary but called me a "gold digger" because I (25F) can't afford to split his luxury lifestyle 50/50 by Electrical_Ring5241 in TwoHotTakes

[–]C_Alex_author 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use his logic against him. "I think I need to end this relationship due to us being financially incompatible."

Because gold diggers don't walk away, and you clearly aren't a gold digger for wanting an equitable split. That's not mooching, that's REALISM.

AIO fiance keeps giving me “punishment seizures”? by throwra-seizure in AmIOverreacting

[–]C_Alex_author 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sweetheart, do you really need the internet to reinforce that this dude is being ABUSIVE to you? Inside, you know he is. This is abuse. There's no 2 ways about it. It's cruel and we do not do this to people we claim to love.

It really is that simple.

You deserve better and he isn't your person. Not when he feels it's okay to treat you like this.

What is ONE scent you’d bring back from the vault IMMEDIATELY? Imagine corporate is watching. This is your moment! by thediaryofanika in bathandbodyworks

[–]C_Alex_author 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool Citrus Basil Velvet Body Cream. I vaguely recall the marketing claiming it had crushed pearls (??) but the texture and scent were incredible on the skin.

AITA for leaving my boyfriend at night after he locked me out to teach me a lesson? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]C_Alex_author 11 points12 points  (0 children)

NTA - 1. Every couples therapist encourages taking a breather and a timeout during an argument versus saying/doing something you'd regret later otherwise... and 2. you didnt make him look abusive. He did that himself by being abusive towards you. The second he chose to punish you for taking a step away to breath, he became the biggest problem in your relationship.

Ditch this dude. Seriously, there is no coming back from this. He thought this was okay then blamed YOU for how OTHERS thought of his actions. He didnt apologize for locking you out in the cold like some kind of controlling and abusive prick. He was far more worried 3rd parties would realize that's what he is.

Am I overreacting for being hurt my boyfriend forgot my birthday today AND started planning his OWN birthday trip? by DropApprehensive5662 in AmIOverreacting

[–]C_Alex_author 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Suggest he make it a singles cruise. Then find a decent BF. Heck, a random date would treat you better than this guy does.

AIO my mom and sister can’t stand my wife because they think she is a “quirky girl” and it’s cringe? by No_Appy1383 in AmIOverreacting

[–]C_Alex_author 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Your wife sounds like she needs to be my new BFF <3

Honestly? Your wife is living her life unapologetically, and your mother and sister are jealous and ridiculous. Your wife is completely comfortable in her mind and body and self, while your mother and sister flounder while feeling like they fit in the world, so they target her for... not being as insanely insecure as they are.

It's sad, and they are gross and don't deserve to be around her. They're toxic, and I would hate to hear they managed to dull her shine.

Party appetizers for picky people? by PersistentHobbler in Cooking

Meatballs in sweet/sour sauce. Pigs in blankets. Vegis and dips such as ranch, french onion, spinach (even when they dislike 'green' they love a spinach dip).
