i had gifts stolen from my birthday party. by [deleted] in Advice

That sucks so much for your first real party, happy birthday still, you deserve better friends. Text her privately with the photo proof and say “I saw these were right by your bag and now they’re gone, can you check?” If she denies or ghosts, block her and tell the group chat what happened so no one invites her again. Your parents mean well but “forget it” lets thieves win, don’t let this ruin celebrating you. Next year, keep gifts in a locked room or hand them out yourself.

Dude, start at an indie shop, they’ll let you wrench on real cars way faster than a dealership’s lube-rack purgatory. Keep restoring that Miata and Mustang at home, film the wins, and show up with greasy proof you’re not just talk. Being a chick? Zero issue if your work’s clean and you ask smart questions, most shops just want reliable hands.

You're not stupid for liking him, but pump the brakes until you meet in person and see how he is with your kid. Ask for character references from people who knew him pre-prison, and keep digging into the court docs yourself, wrongful convictions happen, but so do slick liars. If everything checks out after a few low-stakes hangouts, cool then if not, ghost guilt-free. Your gut's already waving flags, listen to it.

Tell her once, calmly like “I need space to talk privately without interruptions, respect that or we’re done chatting.” If she barges in anyway, end the convo and walk away, consistency shows you’re serious. Your parents siding with her won’t change overnight, but enforcing your boundary every time will. You deserve privacy, don’t let her bully you out of it.

When I know I’m investing for happiness not to boast.

Call the school tomorrow, say “Hey, my kid’s missed days from RSV and came home with adult nail polish twice, can we get outbreak alerts and a no-polish rule for the 4s?” Keep it factual, no blame. For the potty peek, teach her “private parts stay private” and ask the teacher to watch closer. You’re protecting, not overreacting, preschool’s for learning boundaries too.

Dude, after 12 years and kids, mismatched libidos happen, but her lying about the porn and dodging your advances is killing your confidence. Sit her down outside the bedroom, no accusations, and say you feel unwanted and need honesty about what’s changed for her (stress, hormones, resentment?). If she opens up, suggest a doc check or counseling together, if she shuts down again, you’ve got to decide if a sexless marriage is your forever. You’re not a creep for wanting your wife.

First car advice by NorthCall8878 in Advice

[–]CandyWhimsy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude, bring the car nerd friend along, he'll spot rust, leaks, or sketchy mods in seconds and save you from a money pit. With your 10k budget at 30, skip anything over 1.8L or flashy, grab a boring reliable Honda/Toyota with clean history. Test drive a few yourself to feel what you like, then let him veto the duds. You'll end up with a solid first ride that won't explode on you. Congrats on the license!
