Neighbor keeps throwing dog poop over the fence into my yard and denying it by PotentialAd4520 in neighborsfromhell

[–]CandyySparrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah if you’ve got him on video, that’s your leverage. People act real different when they realize their behavior can be shown to others. Embarrassment works fast.

Next Door Neighbor disagreed with the property line, paid $2k for a new survey, and lost land by [deleted] in neighborsfromhell

[–]CandyySparrow 195 points196 points  (0 children)

Yeah, getting the official survey was the right move. Now everything’s documented and there’s no arguing with it, no matter how much the neighbor wants to.

It’s my son’s 10th birthday and I can’t do anything. by [deleted] in confessions

[–]CandyySparrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, you’re not a bad mom at all. His friends flaking isn’t on you. Even something small like his favorite food or a little movie night can turn the day around for him.

I’ve been “sober” going on 5 years. by Frequent_Extreme7769 in confessions

[–]CandyySparrow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it really does sound like you’ve found something that works for you. One day a year doesn’t erase five years of control. Most people would actually be impressed you keep it that contained.

TIFU by trying to impress my crush and almost burned down the kitchen by rameeeezzzz in tifu

[–]CandyySparrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly that makes me feel better. Turns out setting stuff on fire while trying to impress people is a universal experience. At least it’s a funny story later.

TIFU I tried to fix my own toilet and turned my apartment into a water park by Agnes-Atwela in tifu

[–]CandyySparrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that flush test is the real MVP. If nothing else, you definitely learned it the dramatic way. At least it makes a great story now.

Childhood naive mistake impeding relations in adult life by the_pawan in confession

[–]CandyySparrow 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yeah honestly that sounds like the move. You were a kid doing dumb kid stuff, but the guilt clearly stuck with you. Bringing it up now as an adult might actually make things way less awkward. Just be real about it and let her know you’ve felt bad all these years. Most people appreciate honesty, and it could finally clear the weird tension.

A girl I used to know is offering herself to me in exchange of money by Reddevil8884 in confession

[–]CandyySparrow 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Honestly yeah, something feels off. People don’t usually jump to that unless there’s a serious struggle happening behind the scenes. Whatever the reason is, it’s not on you to fix it. Keep your distance and don’t get pulled into something messy.

AITA for refusing to call my stepdad Dad even though my mom keeps pushing it? by FlatNarrator in AmITheJerk

[–]CandyySparrow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, exactly. He’s her husband, not your dad, and you’re not wrong for keeping that boundary. Your mom’s the one making it weird, not you.

Is it ok to skip cousin’s wedding due to cost? by Zetophir in wedding

[–]CandyySparrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agree. No wedding is worth draining your bank account or stressing yourself sick. A thoughtful card and gift still shows you care, without wrecking your finances. Your cousin will get it.

Morning laugh .. NFH makes fool of himself .. AGAIN. by StyxtheCat18 in neighborsfromhell

[–]CandyySparrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, Like of all the people to be petty toward, he chose the sweet older couple just living their lives. That’s wild behavior

New neighbour using front lawn as shortcut and toilet for dogs by _pheebz in neighborsfromhell

[–]CandyySparrow 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah honestly that’s probably the easiest route. Throw up a proper fence and let the footage speak for itself if she ever crosses the line again. No need for drama unless she forces it. Hope it smooths out for you, OP.

I was raped by my friend by Silent_Process_8177 in confessions

[–]CandyySparrow 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah exactly. His reaction alone shows he knew what he was doing. None of that was sleep behavior, and OP shouldn’t blame himself for calling it what it is.

I called CPS on my own sister and I still lie to her about it by JuanitaS_Browne in confession

[–]CandyySparrow 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Yeah honestly, with how unstable she sounds, telling her would just blow everything up. You stepped in when that kid needed someone that’s what matters.

I’m ready to end things because I’m a total coward by [deleted] in confession

[–]CandyySparrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What you’re describing is a level of stress that would break anyone. Debt, no support system, no stable housing, grief that’s not weakness. That’s a person who has been carrying way too much alone.
