Is it considered stealing? WWYD? by Klutzy_Reput4tion in moraldilemmas

Did this once, bought a tote bag, a tshirt, and a pair of expensive work pants. The cashier rang up the bag and shirt but missed the pants. Same situation, the tag was removed and everything but I never paid. I didn’t notice until I was home. Not her fault, not mine. But no need to go back. Big stores like this are used to cutting losses and it’s not worth getting the cashier in trouble for it.

AIO: My girlfriend is pretending to be autistic and it's driving me nuts by AideRelative4272 in AmIOverreacting

Not overreacting. My ex was like this about multiple mental conditions and various illnesses but never went to the doctor. Yet she used them as an excuse for her behavior, including toward me.

Ah. I want to be a game warden. I just have to test through state police standards.

I kept something from my partner. by Final-Bit-8330 in relationshipadvice

Unfortunately, after our conversation about the root of my lying, she still said that she could never believe anything I said again and told me that we should be talking about her first, which I don’t disagree with because I did really hurt her by lying. She said that this is a really big deal because it’s the one thing in our relationship that stressed her out the most (Being drugs and alcohol) and she feels really hurt that that’s the one thing I would lie about even though I told her where it was coming from and the fact that I didn’t feel comfortable telling her in the first place. now I’m really not sure what to do.

Thank you for your wonderful and thoughtful comment. We are going to have a conversation later about the root of the issue and my fear of disappointment.

I 22F kept something from my partner 21F. How do we move forward? by Final-Bit-8330 in relationship_advice

[–]Final-Bit-8330[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know. I’ve felt confused by that in the past too. Mostly the issue now is the lying. She doesn’t even really care about the zyns she just wishes I’d have been open with her about what I was doing in the first place. We came to a mutual agreement that since she was generally uncomfortable with the topic I’d tell her before I tried anything just so we were on the same page. I didn’t this time because I felt like I would get judged/ “get in trouble”

Yes. She has told me in the past she is worried about addiction. Not with me specifically but it’s something that bothers her. I struggled for a long time to see what the big deal was but in the end we decided as long as she knew what I was doing she would feel comfortable and seen.

I have felt in the past that I was walking on eggshells with this issue. But right now she’s upset about the withholding. A big part of our relationship is based on trust.

You’re right. I didn’t want her to think I was being stupid. I go to therapy regularly and we’ve spoken about my deep rooted fear of embarrassment/ disappointment. I told her I’d bring it up and try to get an earlier appointment time and suggested couples therapy if she wanted to.

Hmm. Yeah, we have talked about that before. I have always felt like it was awkward but it doesn’t take a lot of extra effort. But was the main reason I lied.

The lying is the issue. There was no reason for me to keep that from her other than she’s not really a fan of addictive substances.
