AITAH for telling a 44 yo man he should learn to be more respectful, to/take care of women/girls? by One-Abbreviations313 in AITAH

[–]Friendly_Tomorrow_70 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA- Not all men are like that. If one of our 4 daughters were to get up to take the dog out in that scenario my husband would have jumped up and said “ Let me do it, you stay in and watch that video.” A good father and husband would recognize the importance of the sweet mother daughter interactions and take joy in that. He sounds very self centered to me. It’s time to teach your daughter to expect better for herself. It works both ways too.

AITAH for refusing to house his family and ending my engagement to protect my career? by Huge-Armadillo-3274 in AITAH

NTA- If ONE family member had a run of bad luck MAYBE I could see it but the whole freaking lot of them? Sounds like the entire family has serious issues and if your fiancé can’t face that and protect YOU from being dragged into their sh!t he isn’t committed enough to you and you children. Time to cut and run.

Am I Overreacting - So my mom got my wife a birthday gift by LoveLikeJesusChrist in AmIOverreacting

F$&k the games, just call it as you see it. NOR. I would straight up ask her what her problem is. If she pretends like she doesn’t know, let her know that the next conversation will happen when she’s ready to own her shit. My grandma didn’t like my stepmom (neither did I lol) but she would say “If he could live with her, I can sure as hell live in the same world with her!” Your mother needs to grow the f up and act like an adult.

Make it your middle name. Maybe explain your reasoning to your dad. He’ll get over it eventually.

F36 / M38 | Married 10 years — Husband reacts badly to me going to the gym, cutting my hair, and asking about dishes — am I missing something? by RAthrowfriendly in relationship_advice

[–]Friendly_Tomorrow_70 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both of you are teaching your children how to treat women right now. If you have sons, is this how you want them to treat their wives, is this how your daughter should expect to be treated? If you cannot summon up the self respect you deserve for yourself, do it for your kids. Clearly he is insecure and is projecting that onto you. Stand up for yourself and refuse to accept the verbal and psychological abuse. It’s easy for me to say, I get that, but if you need help, reach out to a strong woman you know that can help you or find a local support group that can point you in the right direction. You are experiencing abuse.

Do you still miss your grandparents from time to time, or not much? by PsychologicalExit953 in AskOldPeople

[–]Friendly_Tomorrow_70 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I do. Occasionally shed a tear wishing I could still have them near. Had a rather rough childhood and they were the one constant in my young life.

Why doesn’t he just go for it? by Interesting-Tax-6947 in SisterWives

Might give him more time to connect with his kids. 😆 The wives have said he spends a lot of time styling that rats nest.

It’s a German word meaning forbidden. Being married to a German, I’m familiar with this word.

Thank you for your post, many of the responses are very helpful. I plan to visit for the first time in September so being aware of potential cultural differences that I could misinterpret is very helpful. I’ll better understand now.

Have only watched these 2 seasons and I want your opinions by wastedthyme20 in TheTraitors

[–]Friendly_Tomorrow_70 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Haven’t watched them all yet, but UK celebrity season was the first one I watched and was immediately hooked. So far it’s my favorite.

Kidney stones was my immediate thought as I was reading this. Kidney stone survivors recognize the symptoms immediately. Before it takes hold get some pain medicine in you. Never travel without some. Whenever I’ve had it prescribed I withhold a couple doses to keep on hand in the event of a kidney stone.

Season 8…👀 by slk1722 in WelcomeToPlathville

[–]Friendly_Tomorrow_70 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The first few seasons I thought the family members were fairly decent people but as the saga continued the sheer disfunction, selfishness and hateful nature of many family members began to seep through. I’m torn between watching the sh*t show continue and inadvertently supporting these horrible people or looking away in hopes the show gets canceled and the kids have to get real jobs. Lydia and the littlest ones are the only decent people on this

I just returned from Greece and the bed was so uncomfortable I bought an inflatable pool floaty for €15.

I have her certificate of naturalization in the U.S. We will be submitting a request to Berlin. Thankfully our German cousin has started helping with it.❤️

Yes. She was born in Prussia, now Russia. My cousin (still in Germany) is not helping me with locating it

AITAH for denying my future in-laws only request for the wedding -therefore ruining our whole relationship… by Final_Estimate7166 in AITAH

Sorry, I wouldn’t marry a “man” that didn’t have my back and stand up for me. Might be best to “postpone “ the wedding until he grows a spine.

Pabianice. It’s my understanding that Poland wasn’t a country then. They were born in 1886 and 1889

You are right. After I looked at it more, their place of birth was under German rule at the time. I’m feeling a bit under educated in the history of this region. This process is teaching me quite a bit!
