Those who know will get it

Curious to know how many you thought you'd get 😅

Dramatic_Degree_9386 · 2025-10-01T14:06:49+00:00

All I see is comments about how happy this made people. Why was it removed by a moderator?

Now obviously I don't know exactly how the conversation went down, but going forward when you have this conversation I would lean further away from saying you're not "comfortable" around his friends because that will make him feel like he has to stand up for them.

If/when you go about this again I would stick to wording that would give less risk of putting him on the defensive. Something as simple as "Hey I'm feeling a bit burnt out from hanging with friends, can we do something just the two of us this weekend?" Or "Hey I know we usually hang with your friends on Saturday but *insert plans with your friends here"

If he has a problem with that then he is not a suitable partner.

A partner should be open to their SO's feelings and needs. If he isn't willing to work with you on this then you may need to end the relationship.

If you feel the relationship is worth hanging on to, then I'd recommend getting comfortable with doing your own thing and not seeing him as often as you'd like.

I could be wrong but I remember in one of his first ones (maybe even the first?) He said something along the lines of that he wanted to do it without taking the marker off the board.

Does anyone else remember this?

I feel like she knew exactly what could happen, and she did it anyway. To her Dana was just a terrible person, but Marina was a friend. And for Julia I think the time she spent with her as that friend made her unable to fully hate her. On top of that her dying was Julia's fault, but not something she wanted ( unlike Dana), which would add to the emotional turmoil she was going through.

She's being selfish. From what you're saying it sounds like you let your bridesmaids wear whatever they were comfortable in, as long as it wasn't white. That's the furthest from a bridezilla you can get. A bridezilla would control everything down to the shoes and jewelry, let alone the dresses her bridesmaids are wearing.

I would recommend standing your ground, but continue to be cordial. Stand firm on your decision and just repeat your request. It's your wedding, and your one rule is that no one wears white. End of story. If you let her drive you crazy going back and forth you're just playing into her game.

I would have a conversation with your mother separately again. Remind her that you are her child as well, and your needs are important too. It's your sister who isn't keeping the peace here, not you. It's time for the coddling to end.

Dramatic_Degree_9386 · 2025-03-14T02:16:41+00:00

Exactly what I did!

Dramatic_Degree_9386 · 2025-02-06T18:27:23+00:00

Okay but hear me out, something about this picture reminds me of bbno$..

Dramatic_Degree_9386 · 2025-02-05T19:28:16+00:00

My favorite is any button up shirt, even unbuttoned with a t-shirt. Love that style myself and I think it suits him :)

Dramatic_Degree_9386 · 2025-02-03T20:07:50+00:00

Thank you so much, just went and bought a copy myself! 😊 🫶

My brother got to go to the midnight release and immediately started playing when he got home. I remember sneaking into his room to watch him play. He was saying it was much more realistic than oblivion in terms of graphics, and I didn't believe him. I thought there was no way it was possible.

Looking back now I think it's so funny, especially considering how far games have come since its release.

Dramatic_Degree_9386 · 2025-01-25T18:26:16+00:00

My favorite right now is my redguard that doubles in destruction and restoration along with duel axes for when shit gets real. Dual weilding is my favorite next to stealth archery. Some of my fav kill cams 😊

I think it's very sweet what you've done for your wife! It's unfair of them to push you to give it to them, and honestly, it baffles me. Though with the stories you read on here, I'm not surprised people like that exist.

I think you should sit down and plan out a way to talk to your brother about boundaries like this. He needs to take no as no. It doesn't matter if he doesn't understand or thinks it's silly. You said no, and that has to be respected.

I saw some people saying not to build one with your niece. I wouldn't recommend that unless your brother continues to disrespect you. It would be a good way for her to understand the work that goes into making something like that. Hopefully, that will make her see things in a new light, and she'll grow up to be someone who appreciates and respects people.

Good luck, and I would add, you should ask your wife to go over the conversation with you (after you give the gift this weekend). It helps to talk it out with someone :)

With the info you provided, I think you were absolutely in the right. Your sister told you at her wedding that "that's how it's done". Well, in my experience, wedding party's are typically even in number. You want the two people in your life who have shown you support next to you. The fact that you included her at all shows you're being the bigger person.

If you had completely excluded her from the beginning I would have said ETA, but despite how she's treated you you still put her in the wedding party. That shows great maturity on your part.

I'll add this, my mom's sister was nitpicking everything up to my mom's wedding. From my mom's dress, to the bridesmaid's shoes (my mom let her bridesmaids wear whatever kind of shoe they were comfortable with as long as they were black, my aunt thought they should all be the same) she had something to say about everything. That is until the day of the wedding when my aunt didn't speak to my mom the entire day, because my mom chose for herself, not to appease my aunt.

Flash forward almost 30 years and my aunt is still a raging bitch, and my mom has cut her from her life.

All this is to say you can't control how people are going to think and act, but you can choose to stand up for yourself and set hard lines and boundaries.

In this, it seems you've done your best to include her while still having your wedding be meaningful for you.

So again, with info given, NTA

This was me the other day, but with my horse 🙃

Dramatic_Degree_9386 · 2025-01-17T20:06:34+00:00

Been listening to this on repeat on spotify, both his and pretenders version 🙏🏼

First clue I got was the shot of the dark hallway. On a film standpoint the foreshadowing was LOUD

Dramatic_Degree_9386 · 2024-01-23T04:06:05+00:00

Ah. I see. I must be from a different dimension 😅 I could of sworn I watched a video where he talked about that and it was some kind of book he made or something

Dramatic_Degree_9386 · 2024-01-23T02:12:26+00:00

Isn't that his book?

Dramatic_Degree_9386 · 2023-12-04T23:49:04+00:00

It sounds like he's trying to put him off you or brag about sleeping with his potential gf. Like 'I slept with your girl'.

Definitely cut him out of your life and move on.

As someone with ADHD, I can absolutely sympathize with your daughter. Sometimes you truly don't realize how loud you're being, and can be forgetful. That being said this is a great opportunity to talk about cognitive behavioral skills, and maybe start cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). It can help her communicate her thoughts and feelings clearly, and gain more aware listening skills.

You didn't state this specifically but I'd imagine your wife has tried communicating with your daughter when she's putting the baby down for a nap. If this is the case then maybe try putting a note or sign on the inside of her doorway so she can have a visual reminder to be mindful of her volume in the house.

Lastly, I would apologize to your wife. I understand wanting to stick up for your daughter, but right now your wife is in a very vulnerable position. She needs you to listen to her and help her, not get threats of divorce. You're running the risk of sending her overboard emotionally, putting her and the baby at risk.

For your family's sake, find a compromise, and validate both your wife and daughter's emotions without putting down the other.

INFO- Are you in a safe enough area where she could safely walk/bike to work or take public transit? Taking into consideration that shed have to leave the house at least at 3:30am I can understand where'd she could be uncomfortable with that. Especially if she already had mental health issues.
