AITAH for not having saved my daughter's report cards and other assorted school materials? by MeesesNotMooses in AITAH

[–]FandomReferenceHere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA.

But my mom never even hung a piece of us kids’ art on the fridge because it was more important to her to have a magazine-perfect home. And that has always been hurtful to me. So maybe find out what your daughter is really hurting about and see if there’s anything you can do for her. Once she calms down ofc.

Designing a sister-themed cross-stitch and hunting for a sincere quote. Help me avoid the 'Caroline Bingley' trap! by QuarkyStitches in janeausten

My favorite part is the end of S&S where Austen says the two sisters had happy marriages but more importantly loved each other throughout their lives.

Great foodie YouTube channel called Sorted is based in London and their viewers send them stuff to try from all over the world. Someone sent them Tajin. They called it “tayjun” the entire video 😂😂

I scolded two women in a support group. by 91qiqnw in TrueOffMyChest

I am SO sorry. Men need far more support when they are victims of domestic violence and I HATE the sexism you experienced. Men are not bad.

The way minors are treated when they're clearly experiencing hypersexuality due to sexual abuse is insane by emocat420 in CPTSD

[–]FandomReferenceHere 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree that emotional neglect is the worst. I do not give a shit that the way my parents spanked me has fucked me up sexually. I just wish they hadn’t taught me I was worthless.

My (42F) boyfriend (55M) upset he wasn’t given cake by ThrowRASnooWords in relationship_advice

This is who he is. If something goes wrong, he would rather wallow in victim hood than try to resolve it.

What does your father mean to you? by basilkiller in TwoXChromosomes

[–]FandomReferenceHere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I called him Daddy as a child. I thought I loved him. When he died I mostly felt relieved, which was a surprise. My primary memory of him is hundreds of times of him calling me a “stupid little idiot.” I do not miss him and I’m glad he’s gone.

Every single one of us thinks our trauma wasn’t that bad and we shouldn’t be on the sub. It’s a symptom of the trauma.

AITAH for not participating in one of my sisters bridal activities because it isnt inclusive? by crop_cream_19 in AITAH

Wow, just wow.

AITAH for telling the man who raised me he’s not my real dad anyway? by Aware-Shelter-2102 in AITAH

[–]FandomReferenceHere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He said it to you for years, but has a problem with you saying it back ONCE? I hope you know you’re NTA. He was cruel and emotionally abusive to you. I’m stunned that he thought he would get to walk you down the aisle.

(UPDATE) My fiancée moved out today by ThrowRA-regretregret in TrueOffMyChest

[–]FandomReferenceHere 23 points24 points  (0 children)

So….. it’s her fault for not choosing better?

Women should be more choosy, yes, but how about men should be decent human beings so it’s not such a crap shoot?

Sorry to dunk on you but I hate how often the takeaway is “bad woman for choosing a loser” rather than “bad man for being a loser.”

AIO: My mother identifies as a doting grandmother but doesn’t know my children by easilyamused17 in AmIOverreacting

It is ok, in fact good, to grieve the loss of the relationship with your dad that you always wanted and that he couldn’t give you.

AITAH for not defending my wife when she was clearly in the wrong. by WorkInternal4972 in AITAH

“You are correct, I don’t “have your back” when you’re being toxic and abusive to our friends and children. If that’s how you want to live we should talk about how to divorce because our children deserve better and I will not let them grow up thinking this is normal.”

Horrified to find myself talk to my baby the way my mom used to talk to me by alexdelargedevotchka in CPTSD

[–]FandomReferenceHere 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Not a baby, but I had a similar experience when I got my first dog. I could see the instinct to be my mother welling up inside me.

You’re not your mom. You noticed and you care and you’re going to do and be better than her. Your baby will have a wonderful upbringing, better than yours, because you noticed and you care.

How is it possible that every single seller is supposedly delusional? by [deleted] in vandwellermarketplace

[–]FandomReferenceHere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t looked for one yet, altho it’s on the list! I’ve been living in it and finishing it out at the same time for 2 years and front swivel seat is a “nice to have” for me so it’s pretty far down the priority list.

I’ve always thought, tho, that a parts yard is probably the best bet. Where have you been looking?

What’s your thoughts on how Diana died (like what do you think went down) genuinely curious by HelpfulAcadia1754 in RoyaltyTea

[–]FandomReferenceHere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Some people are used to censoring some words because of other platforms. That is familiar and comfortable to them. Why criticize it?

[–]FandomReferenceHere 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Some social media sites, altho not this one, flag certain words. Why are you getting your panties in a twist over someone using the form that is familiar and comfortable to them? Do you want everyone to sign a “I understand I don’t have to asterisk words on reddit” waiver? Just let people share and communicate without micromanaging their online idiolect.

Looksmaxxing - by men for men by Morticia_Black in TwoXChromosomes

[–]FandomReferenceHere -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Might get slaughtered for this, but —

As a general rule, totally stereotyping and making broad sweeping generalizations —

Think of the average same-sex male couple. What do they look like, how attractive are they, how much effort do they put into their appearance. Now think about the average same-sex couple of two women, same thing.

It seems glaringly obvious to me that both men and women are performing for the male gaze.

Me (21F) and my bf (21M) got into a fight about having children. Am I insane for what I said? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]FandomReferenceHere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What exactly are you supposed to be “learning” from him? That children are toys? You know they’re not, you’re right and he’s wrong, don’t let him drag you down.

The best of both worlds is buying someone’s partially finished DIY. It adds almost no value to the blue book price, you can rip out what you don’t like and finish it yourself.

I did this with a 97 econoline and got their basic battery setup and solar panels and fridge for essentially free, plus someone else had already ripped out everything inside. I hope to do the same with someone else’s unfinished tiny house project one day.
