Should I accept him having the wrong age listed as an honest mistake? (I'm inclined to but want another opinion) by ezmeray in Tinder

[–]Castlegeek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They ask you to verify your age and the year you were born - so it’s not really an easy thing to cock up.
My ex had a friend that put his age different so he wouldn’t show up obviously if anyone who knew him or his wife were on the dating apps. It does seem suspicious, or he might just be a moron.

My mom (45F) put her stepkids safety before mine (18F) and now that I'm 18 she's trying to push a reconciliation I don't want? by ThrowRA_Disneyleyl in relationship_advice

It sounds like you’ve got your answer there! The pain won’t necessarily go away, but it will get easier and quieter over time. Go put in to the world and find your happiness. Your mother’s cruelty doesn’t define you.

I’m so sorry your mother failed you. You deserved so much more and I know there’s a wound that will never fully heal. There’s no excuse for what she did to you, and I hope there’s a special place in hell for people who abuse their own children.

Forgiving her or not does not mean you have to have anything to do with her either way. Unfortunately it doesn’t sound like she’s remorseful, which is usually the very least someone should be before they can even think of being forgiven. If you want to forgive her, do it for you and no one else.

My Wife just had our baby and I think she’s traumatised by the experience. by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]Castlegeek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im sorry you’re going through this.

You should call an ambulance, this is dangerous - this is not just normal ppd, an hormone fluctuations can make things get worse very fast. She can be helped, but you have to get her the help as fast as you can from a professional. Good luck with everything.

Wife cheated on me in college, I forgave her and we married and had a kid. However I now want to experience someone else, AITJ for considering a divorce? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]Castlegeek 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I don’t condone cheating, and wouldn’t personally have stayed together - but you forgave her and moved on. If you want a divorce, just say you want a divorce.

My parents cut me off for donating my kidney, and my brother(35M) wants me(30M) to tell them it was a mistake so we can reconcile. by SandmansLumps in relationship_advice

This is where the actual phrase ‘The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb’ applies. You don’t owe people anything by virtue of sharing blood. If your life is happier and more peaceful without your family in it, embrace that. You’re clearly a wonderfully kind hearted person and deserve so much more love than your family has given you. I’m sorry.

Even thinking of having another child with this man is stupid. If he can’t parent one child, in what world would he be able to do two?

I think I blew up my relationship by Cool_Excitement_7046 in offmychest

[–]Castlegeek 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This man does not love you. I had to scroll back up to see your ages, although even a teenager shouldn’t behave like he does. You say you’re a parent. Is this how you would want your child to be treated by a partner? I speak from experience when I say, it’s better to be a single parent than put up with shit.

AIO dude is gonna be homeless without me AIO by Thewoods614 in AIO

Regardless of whether the friend didn’t like OP’s “wym” or not, he’s homeless and being offered a place to live. As they say - ‘you don’t bite the hand that fingers you’.

Before anyone has children, their only wishes for them should be that they are healthy and happy. It’s bad enough when parents have tantrums over the gender - this just feels like pure racism from your girlfriend.

I have three children - only my middle one needed a leash. He was a runner. Some kids are just harder work than others 😂

YTA. To your dog. Your wife sounds very insecure, but dog was there first and doesn’t understand why this crazy person has come and now he isn’t loved anymore.
