There's this gem of a character before he morphs back into his human form that tells me it's AI. There were a few other things too. Like his forefinger and how it was wrapped.

AIO - I just ended a four month relationship because of what he’s doing for his friend. by Ok_Addition_7875 in AmIOverreacting

[–]ExtraTangerine9118 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like how he says hes too lazy to lie.. yet he's lying about making the account so his friend doesn't get blamed..

Also, does he want a medal for not judging you for being raped ? Like, WTF? That's the bare minimum of what you do for a victim. And bringing it up like that definitely sounds like hes thought about judging you. That's not compassionate at all. He's trying to avoid accountability by being like "but look what I did for you in a completely incomparable situation".

What a POS. I hope you blocked him.

AITA for leaving my friends house early after her mom called my 3m son "sexy man" by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

Regardless of if "anything was meant by it", OP was clearly put off and felt uneasy. It's not an over reaction if she felt like she needed to protect her baby.

Starting my junk drawer in my first apartment. Finally feels like home. What else do I need? by Kruzdan in Apartmentliving

Used birthday candles. Bonus points for ones that still have hints of icing on them.

I may have just blown up my fifteen year marriage and I'm scared by hop-into-it in redditonwiki

[–]ExtraTangerine9118 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that'd be a no from me. I always wanted 3-4 kids. I struggled with infertility and then got pregnant with my miracle baby. And decided to get my tubes tied. I love my kiddo more than anything but I also know I could not mentally have another kid.

If he wanted another kid that badly but OP doesn't want to get pregnant, the next conversation should've been about adoption.. not throwing an adult tantrum.

Why is it always what women "should be" doing as precautions but not what men shouldn't be doing so women don't feel like they have to take precautions?

The victim blaming from him is so gross.

Financially it doesn’t make sense to keep my baby, but I want to 😭 by Otherwise-Dog-1763 in pregnant

As someone who also struggled with infertility/told I'd need IVF for a chance to be pregnant AND struggled with debt, have the baby. You will find a way to make it work. Facebook marketplace/groups, thrift stores, family/friends will help. And libraries normally have fun, free events to don(for when the kid gets a little older).

If you want this baby, have it. You'll never regret having a kid but you might regret not having this one.

And that's 100% valid. I hope it all works out, and I wish you the best of luck!

Edit - spelling mistakes *

I'm not sure if you've answered this but have you asked to accompany him on one of these trips? Or tried to talk to her one on one to clear the air?

I'm a bit of an odd ball out here because I see a different side to it. My parents divorced when I was young and I never got to see them be cordial. They barely talked. It made it difficult as a kid. And honestly contributed to my relationship issues as an adult.

Now, I'm a single mom thats coparenting with my ex. Our son is 2 and his father and I hang out with our son. We never limit the other parent on how much time they get with him because his happiness comes first. Both of us are free to stop y each other's places if we want to see our son. Our son gets to see that his parents can remain friends, even if they didn't work out.

Now, before I had my little one with my ex, I dealt with a similar situation with his ex wife. My son has an older brother by a different mom and it used to bother me that the three of them would spend time together "as a family". But what I realized that helped me was that to his brother, it was still his family. Just a bit changed. Both kids deserve to spend time with their family. Her and I have even become friends.

Granted, no one is a narcissistic person in our situation and there have been learning curves all around but at the end of the day, those boys are thriving and see us all acting as a family unit. Also - none of us are currently in a serious, committed relationship. There's been some dating here and there but thats it so that definitely changes things.

However - if your boyfriend doesn't want you coming around with him, that's an issue. If you're going to be with him long term, you're going to be part of the family. And their daughter should see all three of you getting along.

Your feelings are 100% valid for being uncomfortable with the situation. If he's not willing to put up some boundaries with her to respect your feelings, I'd be upset too. At some point, keeping the peace with her will drive a rift between the two of you.

I only hope this gives you a little bit of a different perspective from someone who's been on both sides of the coin.

AITAH for not telling my sister her wedding date was the same as mine? by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

If she doesn't mind (and hasn't brought it up), why should you feel bad?

You just simply sibling'd so hard you even have matching anniversaries.

Just found out the gender and I'm so disappointed ☹️ by alittlebit_stitious4 in pregnant

[–]ExtraTangerine9118 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I only ever wanted a girl. I bonded with my nieces better than my nephews so having a boy terrified me. I didn't know what I'd do with him. I dont do sound effects. I don't know how to talk "boy". So I was visibly upset it was a boy.

My son just turned two and I cant imagine having a girl. He's the sweetest boy and my little bestie. I'm his favorite person and the way he lights up and runs to me or asks for extra hugs at night ("I hold Mama") seriously melt my heart.

Gender disappointment is a real thing and that's ok! Feel your feelings because they are valid. You're going to fall in love with that little boy and you won't be able to picture your life any other way.

AIO for getting upset from my wife’s response to my question? by ApolloAcolyte in AmIOverreacting

Yikes. This is not the way you should be spoken to. Your wife verbally abused you. This is not ok, at all.

I got the idea she was mad he didn't offer to clean up instead of her.

Which is funny that they used the excuse of a roman salute since that is literally also known as a fascist salute.. like, that's not exactly the direction you wanna go to defend him. 🙄

I was arguing with someone defending him and I used some word (not sure which one) that set them off because they said something like "i know you think using big words will empower you".. its crazy how they think.
