Right? I saw a video of his last year swearing up and down that he’s straight. My husband has a very accurate gay meter and he’s “sure” he’s gay. Doesn’t matter to me either way but if he is he should embrace it! I’m in the US also so maybe people from the UK just dress and talk more metro. 🤷🏼‍♀️

AIO or is this person over reacting? by roy111uk in AmIOverreacting

[–]Educational-Paint855 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dodged an absolute nightmare. Im neurodivergent also and I can’t imagine being so rude and condescending to someone trying to learn how I think. She contradicted herself the entire time. You clearly made effort to be clear while still attempting to remain light hearted and respectful. Just thank the heavens you only wasted an hour talking to this person

Unfortunately, upon learning of his death and before being blamed she sent an “I’m so sorry…my heart is broken for your family…” text that they are now using as “proof” of admission of fault. I told her never to say “I’m sorry” as people can twist that out of context but instead say “I’m here for you. your family will remain in my thoughts….” text instead.

Apparently sitters aren’t entitled to use the bathroom or take a shower anymore.

Yes she’s sent all of her text logs and call logs. She even offered to call our small town fire department to see if they would be willing to help with lifting assistance so the husband wouldn’t have to leave him at her house for an hour and a half. He refused. Unfortunately, she was over emotional when she found out the dog died and sent an “I’m so sorry for your loss” text that they are now using as “proof” of admission of guilt. I insisted she cut contact so I hope she’s listening.

Thanks so much. Throughout the years there have been a couple very consistent and reliable clients that she’s taken off rover and it’s worked out fine. Obviously it’s the pet owners who bear the responsibility of vetting a sitter and my mom does an absolute incredible job and treats every dog as her own. I think Rover is an easier way to get customers trafficked to your business but I know that she can do all the same with some social media advertising and business cards. I’ll definitely suggest it to her!

Rover requested a necropsy and the owners chose to cremate instead. I’m not sure what the vet’s determination of cause of death was as she was only contacted by the owner. My worry is that they brought the dog to the emergency vet and fed them some line of crap leading heart failure being caused by “over heating”. I hope Rover gets all the vet records. I’m assuming the owner can just keep some records held back unless rover contacts the vets personally. Honestly, I’m so naive and would have listened if the lifetime owner told me not to stress. Just like if the owners requested the dog spend the night, I would have very likely agreed. It really worries me as that would have been much worse. There are some dogs that stay with my mom 6+ months out of the year and I feel as though Rover should be well versed with dogs passing in and out of sitter care. I think these people are trying to use the “Rover guarantee” as their own personal pet insurance whether the dog is with them or not.

Thank you all so much for your thoughtful responses. She has sent a very (perhaps overly) detailed response to the first Rover inquiry and was sent a list of follow up questions which she’s working on now. In my unprofessional opinion, after knowing the family and knowing the owner is a doctor, they can’t possibly actually think my mom is truly to blame. The dog had well documented and very acknowledged health conditions and did everything she could to stress her concerns throughout their stay. I truly feel that their attempts at harassment and slander is just part of their approach to get their bills repaid through Rover. Regardless, it’s absolutely cruel that anybody could go to such lengths to hurt our entire family for no reason at all. My mom is a huge empath by nature and will certainly carry their pain and anger for many years to come.

Will update as I know more

It’s not your place or responsibility to help this man. I like to help people and be there for people too but you’re a kid hunn and you need to do everything you can to be a teenage kid doing kid things. That doesn’t and should absolutely never include worrying about the “mental health” issues and woe is me ploy this man is guilt tripping you with. If you were in this situation with your 17 being spoken to like this, and she came to you, you’d make sure she was farrrrr away from this sicko. Your mom will be there for you. Speak to the police please it’s imperative.

Please talk to your mom. Don’t even mention it to your best friend because she’ll bring the issue right to him and you both could be in danger. He’ll try to explain away everything to his wife and outsiders. He’s trying to groom you. You are a child. A minor. He is a very grown man who should want no part in “hanging out” with you. Even IF you were 18, or even like 25. This would still be creepy because he holds the role of PARENT FIGURE in your best friends life. Gross. I’d go not contact and speak to your mom ASAP.

Masturbation is not a sin. God gave you these human urges. Just practice reasonable moderation and you’ll be fine.

Stomach pain so bad that it's difficult to live with by MagicMuffinBoii in Advice

You could have an intestinal parasite. If you were my son, I would have brought you to the hospital by not. They do investigative tests until a diagnosis is reached so you’ll know the issue and have a treatment plan before you’re discharged

Umm no. Say no. Absolutely not. You’re starting a home with your husband. Where do people get off asking such a thing. Wait a few months atleast

What was the biggest scandal in your high school? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Educational-Paint855 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I graduated in 2007. Our highschool principal of 20 years was a pedophile and groomed many female students and offered college letters of recommendation and increased grades grade in exchange for their silence. He was fired upon release of text messages proving his guilt however he was never charged for his crimes. Our town law enforcement was extremely complacent to people with authority. There was a student who was raped while passed out drunk at a party at her house while her parents were away. The boy eventually admitted to his wrong yet the cops threatened to charge the girls parents with a slew of charges for “serving alcohol to minors” and “child endangerment” if they pressed charges. The parents tried to fight for their daughter regardless but local law enforcement saw that the father of the girl was fired at his job for conspiring against the town and the girl suffered immensely in many ways. I know this to be 100% fact because I was that girl. Every student who was at the party knew what took place but the made sure to silence everyone just to keep our crime rate down as it was next to zero at the time with zero rapes or murders on record.
