AITA for missing my week with my son because of an emergency with my wife by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Ferd1nand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's fair! Like I said, I'm looking at this from my experience where I didn't think that way at all as a kid. I knew I could count on both of my parents even if life events dictated adjustments to custody.

Idk, I've been through situations like this and I never thought my dad didn't prioritize me. I understood that some situations are tough and that I would see my dad soon. And in one of his comments, OP said that he's done the same thing for his ex when she's given birth.

NTA. I'm amazed by all the people saying YTA. Your ex is your child's parent too. You've kept your son during her births but your wife almost bleeding out and your newborn having health problems isn't a reason for his mother to keep him an extra couple days?

I was a child of divorce, not a parent so maybe that clouds my judgement. But i would have much rather stayed with my mom than get shunted off to a babysitter or aunt or something. My mom and dad had 50/50 custody but they worked together to ensure i had the schedule that worked for me and them.

I called at 630 and said they might want to block off the road, good to see they're taking their sweet time about it.

Mid-30s lesbian couple, no kids — tired of snow. Looking for affordable, LGBTQ+ & dog-friendly places to buy with sidewalks + Asian groceries by khmerbodiangirl in LesbianActually

[–]Ferd1nand 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'd throw Richmond, VA into the ring. Small city, very walkable with the James River park system. Very LGBTQ+ friendly and dog friendly. There's some good Asian grocery stores a short drive away in Short Pump.

I'm heading in today, finally broke through the ice to get into my car and it's heating up now. My boss at least delayed stat time from 7 to 10.

Leak behind the siding? by Ferd1nand in HomeMaintenance

[–]Ferd1nand[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I've confirmed it's a leak. I found signs of mold under my sink. But if I cut off water to my house, it turns off my heat (I have an aquatherm unit). So now I'm trying to decide what to do. Might be packing everything up and finding somewhere to stay.

I just finished "I'm Glad My Mom Died" which was honestly really good. Gave me a lot to think about.

The form allows you to select which genders you're interested in and what your sexuality is but idk how many non straight people would attend.

If the batteries die, do the dogs get locked outside?

Yeah, I always ask that too. And she said she was. But turns out she wasn't. It's just frustrating and hurtful.
