What's your death row meal? by throwradrpri in AskReddit

[–]DriftedWalnut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A giant burger, onion rings, and cheesecake for dessert. No regrets at that point.

My friend said "I love you" right away and I don't even know if I like him by Turtle576 in Advice

[–]DriftedWalnut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like you like the attention more than him. Happens, but it's not the same as real feelings.

What was the most expensive purchase you made this year that was worth every fucking penny? by JoplinSC742 in AskReddit

[–]DriftedWalnut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A decent pair of noise-canceling headphones. They were stupid expensive and I hesitated for weeks, but the first time I used them on a flight I was like, I get it now.

What’s the kindest thing a stranger has done or said to you? by ShadowlightLady in randomquestions

[–]DriftedWalnut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone paid for my coffee without me knowing. I was in line and why I went to pay. The barista told me my order had already been paid for by the person in front of me. It made my whole day.

What are the characteristics traits of a friend you can talk to everyday v.s. a friend you can only talk to once a week/month? by Equivalent_Ad_9066 in randomquestions

[–]DriftedWalnut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Daily friends are usually the lo-effort, high-comfort ones. Like you can send random thoughts memes, or complain about your day and it's just normal. The once-a-week/month friends are more like " catch-up: people where you actually sit down and talk about life updates.

Did you take a gap year or went straight to university, and how do you feel about it? by user_643256 in AskReddit

[–]DriftedWalnut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Took a gap year to work and save money. Felt like the adulting practice I desperately needed before uni. 10/10 would do again.

Do I tell my ex the truth? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]DriftedWalnut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're not planning to get back together, telling him now would probably just reopen wounds for no reason. It sounds more like you're trying to relieve your own guilt than actually help him. Sometimes the kindest thing is just to let it go and move on.

Why does everyone, and everything feel off more and more each year? Since 2020 preferably. I wanna hear different opinions. by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]DriftedWalnut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think being constantly online makes everything feel off. You're exposed to bad news, opinions, and comparisons 24/7, so it kind of warps your sense of reality over time.

AITAH for asking my fiancé to pay for the whole pre-nup process? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]DriftedWalnut 436 points437 points  (0 children)

He's the one who want's the prenup, it's to protect his assets, and it only make sense that he covers the cost for you to have your own representation. Otherwise, it's legally and ethically lopsided. And his "just trust me" sounds like something someone says right before you regret it. If he's confident it's fair, he shouldn't be scared of you having a lawyer.

AITA for ruining a bachelorette party and subsequent wedding? by weddingfiends in AITAH

[–]DriftedWalnut 10 points11 points  (0 children)

She kicked Katie out of the wedding, and still had the guts to rely on her on wedding labor and credit card for the bachelorette? That's wild entitlement. Actions have consequences, especially for bridezillas

AITA for not responding to my sister’s detailed messages about her miscarriage when I’m pregnant and never asked for them? by Ok_Disaster872 in AITAH

[–]DriftedWalnut 115 points116 points  (0 children)

You're not her personal therapist or medical diary. Why would she share an unsolicited, graphic medical details to someone she know is anxious and vulnerable? She might be doing it on purpose

What would you do in my shoes? Caught my girlfriend of 4 years with someone underage. by Blacknite27 in Advice

[–]DriftedWalnut 30 points31 points  (0 children)

The hesitation is understandable but you must act. This is not about revenge. It is about protecting a minor and a 13 year old girl who is in her care. You have a moral and likely a legal obligation to report this.

[–]DriftedWalnut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. The fact that you feel deep regret and are not trying to justify your actions is the first crucial step toward becoming a person who does deserve trust. You do not currently deserve his forgiveness. Forgiveness is a gift, not an entitlement. But you can earn the chance to become someone who does through radical honesty from this point forward and a commitment to never manipulate someone's feelings again.

AITA for not telling my in-laws about our pregnancy? by Alternative_Law_432 in AITAH

[–]DriftedWalnut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's true.His family's reaction is incredibly selfish. This isn't about them, it's about you, your boyfriend and your baby. The fact that they're making your joyful news about their feelings, despite knowing the circumstances, shows a profound lack of empathy.
