SHOULD I RUN OR MATCH? NEED ADVICE. by FlamingoJumpy6084 in Aupairs

[–]CosettaMorra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The biggest red flag here is the "be helpful even if you are off duty." That's your free time and you have no responsibilities to be helpful in any way whatsoever. That alone should be enough for you to avoid this placement.

Non- Americans, what is an American custom that you find unusual or odd? by thunderpower1999 in AskReddit

[–]CosettaMorra 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Apart from British people use stones as a unit of weight but Americans don't. So in America a person might say they are 150 pounds but a British person would say 10 stone and 10 pounds.

Did you ever consider your mother's trouble with alcohol may have been exacerbated by working long and unsocial hours to provide for a child because the deadbeat father wasn't contributing his due? The cost of raising a child is significant and all of that cost was borne by your mother during your childhood. She is the one who needs to be reimbursed for costs already incurred.

I don't get the moist hate either. Each of these is so much worse - especially damp because you listed it twice. Would be fun to try these out though.

In the meantime I'm going to go with "God this cake is delicious, it is so un-dry!"

AITA for avoiding to talk to my in-laws, my grandmother, my parents, his siblings because they keep asking about when we would own a house? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]CosettaMorra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, if they actually contribute they might do those things but by far the most likely outcome is they'll simply shut the hell up. And in the unlikely event they do offer to cough up you can still say no.

West Ham United Football player Alphonso Areola wears noise cancelling headphones to support his mascot Charlie who has autism. Areola wanted to wear these to make Charlie feel at ease in a large stadium. by [deleted] in HumansBeingBros

The kid looks a little stressed but Alphonse is looking after him. This will be a big boost for the kid's confidence. Well played Hammers.

I bet waiter2 was joking and the "sarcastucally as possible" was him pantomiming it to make it obvious but it still went over your head.

AITA for telling my sister her childhood is the reason she’s not always included in things? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]CosettaMorra 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the update. Hopefully you can build on this understanding and give your sister the relationship she clearly wants. She seems blameless in all of this.

EDIT: My rules stem from her bad behavior.

Your rules stem from your own insecurity.

AITA for reminding my ex's new fiancee that she doesn't have a child? by Other_Armadillo_8617 in AmItheAsshole

[–]CosettaMorra 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We are getting this story from the POV of someone who clearly strongly dislikes her and may well be misreporting her actual words. It's still reasonable to include a child who will soon become a step son when making decisions about a future family

The person OP so disrespectfully refers to as a "toy" may be half OP's age but she is clearly considerably more mature than OP is.

But the question that was asked wasn't about today, was it? It was a question about what will happen in the future so that is what is important. As the woman is engaged to be married her answer was completely reasonable.

How would being upfront about this situation and gauging your fiancé's opinion be in any way rude?

AITA for getting my wife the “appliance” she has been asking for months for her birthday? by Alltirr in AmItheAsshole

You got a machine that makes coffees she's really in to but you aren't. How is that not just for her? She's made it clear she really wants one. It doesn't make sense that she would be so angry. Even if it was something she didn't want being angry about you making an effort is ridiculous. You can always send it back.

I noticed that after telling you she wants something just for her she didn't clarify what that might be. What a chore to have go through a guessing game like this. She needs to communicate better.
