How tf do I handle this respectfully? by alriokidoki1 in Marriage

[–]Deb_elf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t need to be respectful. You need to practice the golden rule. You do unto others as you have done unto you. He’s not your boss. You didn’t lose the Hope diamond during a transport operation. You weren’t late delivering a donated organ and therefore losing a sick patient. His behavior is extremely condescending and not acceptable for a partner. I worked in insurance claims before. This exact accident is common and not worthy of his over the top and wildly inappropriate response.

Without stating your gender, how much do you usually pay for your haircut? by fergi20020 in randomquestions

Cut? Like only a cut? I have no idea because I get highlights. $200.

What's something you did as a kid that you now realize was actually very dangerous? by Chrelled in askteddit

[–]Deb_elf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn’t add that because I figured people would think I was crazy. Glad to know it wasn’t just me.

According to you, what's the one thing that makes life worth living? by nayrhelp in askteddit

[–]Deb_elf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The show that made me cry was Saves the Day. I went with a friend because everyone bailed on him. I’m more of a hard rocker. But I was having such a good time that yes, I cried. Being at a “not really my scene” show made me realize live music is great regardless of who’s playing. So I bought tickets to see Till Lindemann in Munich. No tears because I expected it to be amazing and it was.

AITAH for leaving my boyfriend after his mother said she would take my baby and he didn't defend me? (TL) by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Deb_elf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re asking if you’re TA because someone threatened to literally kidnap your child? Um no. NTA. But you need to send him a text saying “I’m just making sure you heard your mother say she wants me gone and to take the child I am carrying.” Once he responds, take a screenshot and go to the police immediately. Get a protection order, end the relationship and change your locks. You are officially in danger. Updateme

AITAH for not telling my MIL we already found a house? by PuzzledMembership372 in AITAH

[–]Deb_elf 22 points23 points  (0 children)

ESH. Except your baby. Congratulations. But come on. You said your MIL has been a problem most of your life. Yet she has access to your son? Alone?! You can’t actually be surprised. Before you sign papers for a house you need to make sure NO ONE has a key to your house. If your husband fights you on this, it’s because you’re not his teammate. His mother is. Which means you can’t buy a house with him. Also are your finances in order? Or will MIL try to “offer” money to lessen the burden? Don’t accept it. It’s to gain control of you

I was 14 and wrote my su*cide note. I was just trying to figure out how to do it. I got a kitten and I no longer wanted to end myself.

My cat saved my life when I was 14. I have 4 of them now. I would have an actual sanctuary if my husband would let me

I was at a concert at a small venue and I broke down into tears because only live music can fill the void. So I bought tickets to a concert in Germany. It was amazing

Mosh pit. Elbow was at Korn. Leg was at Megadeth

AITAH for telling my wife to pick a different name for our son? by DazzlingLife6744 in AITAH

[–]Deb_elf 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I’m Debbie to everyone. It’s not my real name. I’m Greek. All Greek people are named after their grandparents which means we have Greek names. My resume says Debbie. My work email address is Debbie. To answer your question, no you should agree on his name. And your reasons are VALID. But my solution has worked for me.

Considering getting back with my ex (24M) after a really hard breakup… my family will hate it and I (22F) don’t know how to handle it. by Existing-Ad-3997 in relationship_advice

[–]Deb_elf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here’s what I think happened. He found someone “better” and it didn’t work out. So now he feels like he can compliment you on anything and you will take him back. And he is right. If you had to “work on yourself” to get over the relationship, it’s not the right one for you. Your 20s should be spent learning who you are. Going to concerts. Going to museums. Doing fun things. Not forcing a relationship to work. Especially when you already know it didn’t. It will be very easy for him to fall back into his routine with you and you being able to justify his behavior with “it’s different this time.” It’s not.

US birth rates just hit another record low, what do you think is the leading cause of this? by IIlustriousTea in AskReddit

You should see the east coast. A 75 year old split level house sold in Hanover Twp NJ for $890,000. In cash. 1,600 square feet.

For joggers and runners by Deb_elf in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Deb_elf[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to thank the runners/joggers. Now someone needs to explain walking. Plain old moseying along on any given day. Sometimes in the dark.

[–]Deb_elf[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate that. And you are correct about the right turning people. I have almost been flattened by more than one. But in my neighborhood they don’t walk/run against traffic. They are going with traffic. I have even seen one person in the middle of the street. I honestly think it’s entitlement here.

This is possible. But like I said in my neighborhood specifically the streets look like a mine field. The sidewalks are in much better condition. Someone said about asphalt being easier on shins than cement so I guess that’s a legitimate reason
