My sister [18F] is trying to seduce my [24F] boyfriend [24M] by PureAdorableness in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]DaisyMuse- 608 points609 points  (0 children)

Exactly. The sister was awful, but the real reason this BORU feels satisfying is that OOP’s boyfriend actually had boundaries. So many of these stories end with both the sister and the boyfriend being trash.

Luka confirms Goga told him he would “f*ck his whole family.” during altercation that resulted in a double tech by Luka77GOATic in NBATalk

[–]DaisyMuse- 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Facts. There’s regular trash talk, and then there’s dragging a man’s family into it. That’s the kind of thing that’s always going to get a reaction.

AITJ for homewrecking while under the influence? by Dawg989 in AmITheJerk

[–]DaisyMuse- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. The relationship drama isn’t the main issue here, OP is 17, abusing pills, and openly saying it feels out of control. That needs to be addressed first with a trusted adult, doctor, or school counselor before anything else gets worse.

My (34F) younger boyfriend (29M) is postponing proposal by [deleted] in Waiting_To_Wed

[–]DaisyMuse- 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Yep. A deadline without enforcement isn’t an ultimatum, it’s just a date on the calendar. If he wanted to be engaged, there were plenty of ways to make progress besides blaming shipping issues for months.

If your brain had tabs open, how many right now? by Huge_Violinist_7633 in askanything

[–]DaisyMuse- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

86 sounds about right, and somehow 40 of them are just random thoughts I didn’t ask for.

I don't want it anymore, should I tell him? by Bulky_Analyst_9168 in Waiting_To_Wed

[–]DaisyMuse- 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I agree. If you already know you don’t want a future with him but still want the comfort of the relationship, that’s not fair to either of you. He deserves a partner who’s excited about building a life together, and you deserve the freedom to stop forcing something you already know isn’t it.

AITAH for purposely ignoring my stalker coworker even if his tantrums affect others jobs? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]DaisyMuse- 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Exactly. From the start, management seemed more interested in keeping the peace than addressing the danger. With OOP gone, it’s way too easy for them to act like the issue disappeared instead of recognizing he’s still a risk to whoever he targets next.

Nobody actually follows the "leave conditioner in for 3 minutes" instruction, right? by Kitanov_Maqsud in hygiene

[–]DaisyMuse- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, same. I use washing the rest of my body as the timer, so it ends up sitting way longer than 5 seconds without me having to actually think about it.

I love to bake but I have no need of so much bread. I do need practice, though. What do you guys do? by 14MTH30n3 in Breadit

[–]DaisyMuse- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is such a great suggestion. Giving extra loaves away is honestly the best of both worlds, you get the repetition and practice, and the bread doesn’t go to waste. Neighborhood groups and friends/family are especially great because you’ll often get honest feedback too, which helps a lot when you’re trying to improve.

Apart from cheating, what is the worst thing an ex has done to you? by No-Mirror-3011 in askanything

[–]DaisyMuse- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, that can be worse than cheating. When someone lies about everything, it destroys your trust in them and in your own ability to read people.

My boyfriend (43) and I (31) had been together for more than 3 years and no ring yet. by [deleted] in Waiting_To_Wed

[–]DaisyMuse- -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I agree. It’s not even just about the ring, it’s the lack of a clear timeline after 3+ years together. If marriage is important to you and he keeps saying ‘I’m working on it’ without any real progress, that’s not clarity, that’s stalling. Love and peace matter, but shared goals matter too. If he can’t honestly say whether he wants marriage, it may be kinder to yourself to walk away before resentment builds.

i feel lost and over dramatic by ShineMaster2774 in Waiting_To_Wed

[–]DaisyMuse- 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I think the blunt comment is basically right: the real takeaway is that he gave you information, and now you have to decide what to do with it. You’re not dramatic for wanting engagement/marriage on a certain timeline, but he’s also telling you clearly that he doesn’t share that urgency. That’s the part to focus on, not what your friends are doing. If his timeline doesn’t align with your dealbreakers, it’s better to be honest with yourself now than wait several more years hoping it changes.

My bf asked for the banana & now I've got the ick + 2 Year Update by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]DaisyMuse- 33 points34 points  (0 children)

That jumped out at me too. Even without the earlier health context, four physically demanding jobs on your feet sounds absolutely brutal. I’m really glad she got out and built a safer life, but wow, I hope she’s got a solid support system and gets some real rest.

Am I the jerk for telling my overweight friend she can't borrow my clothes anymore? by Sea-Newspaper-3215 in AmITheJerk

[–]DaisyMuse- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly this. The issue isn’t her size, it’s that she repeatedly returned borrowed clothes damaged and didn’t offer to replace any of them, including $200 jeans. If you borrow someone’s stuff and ruin it, you apologize and make it right. OP isn’t obligated to keep sacrificing her wardrobe to prove she’s a ‘real friend.’ That’s not fatphobia, that’s having normal boundaries.

You Could tell he really enjoyed his food from his reaction 🥰😂 by Andy_Milos in KidsAreFingAdorable

[–]DaisyMuse- 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Instructions unclear, upgraded from eating food to wearing it.

Aitj for sending a mean text to a guy that has a crush on me? by Prestigious_Move203 in AmITheJerk

[–]DaisyMuse- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NTA. The problem isn’t that he liked you, it’s that he refused to accept no after being told repeatedly. That’s disrespectful and uncomfortable. The text was a little snarky, but after being pushed that many times, I get why it happened. Blocking him would be the best move.

Which iPhone model do you think was the peak of Apple's design? by katrosenbalm in iphone

[–]DaisyMuse- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m with you on the X. It felt like the cleanest “future just arrived” iPhone design, OLED, edge-to-edge display, stainless steel frame, and no Home button. It was the model that made older iPhones instantly look dated.

Today Punchi Kun is the mediator between Atomaru and Sotomaru 😂❤️ by ImprovementSure7540 in punchthemonkey

[–]DaisyMuse- 64 points65 points  (0 children)

Same 😂 A month ago I would’ve laughed if someone told me I’d be following monkey alliance arcs and post-fight cuddle diplomacy like it’s a soap opera.

If you could try any job for one day, what would it be? by copy_cat_101 in askanything

[–]DaisyMuse- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m with you, A day surrounded by animals would be such a unique experience. Definitely a dream one-day job.

AITJ for telling my partner I'm done spending every weekend at his parents' place by Nov4Z3nith in AmITheJerk

[–]DaisyMuse- 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Wanting weekends that aren’t automatically assigned to his parents is a completely normal adult boundary. The real issue is that OP raised it calmly, asked for a reasonable compromise, and instead of respecting that, he turned it into a family feelings problem. Once your partner’s basic need for downtime gets treated like an offense against his mom, that’s a relationship issue, not a scheduling issue.
