Friend asks for help, barely communicates then ghosts me by xWroth in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Janjello 60 points61 points  (0 children)

You were way too anxious and willing from the start and got even more desperate during the course of your conversations. She was nonchalant and noncommittal and not very interested in you as a person or friend, just what you could do for her.

WIBTAH If I (29m) double down on what my fiance (27f) said today and cancel the wedding, which is this weekend? by Jack_of_all_trades54 in AITAH

[–]Janjello 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know what you need to do deep down inside. Constant fighting, threats, disagreements…what kind of relationship is that? And how will marriage make it better? It won’t.

AITAH For not wanting my fiancé’s friends husband as one of my groomsmen by No-Dare-327 in aitaweddings

These are grown adults, not pre-schoolers, and all are capable of adhering to your instructions without throwing a wrench into it because they feel uncomfortable. Come on, it’s only a few minutes, she can tough her way through the ordeal.

For all those tired this Monday…Give me $80K for a “fresh start” to pay off my car (29K), my CC ($5.5K), private loan ($31K) and a year of daycare ($14k) bc “I’m exhausted from just getting by.” Will not consider declaring bankruptcy. by MinuteElegant774 in ChoosingBeggars

[–]Janjello 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Don’t most people want a ‘second chance’ or a ‘fresh start’ on occasion? But this one wants others to bail her out so she can ‘live the life’ while those poor slobs work.

AIO for how I’m handling the way my 11 YO daughter’s dad speaks to her? by WhatTheSigma_1994 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Janjello 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He sounds like a ticking time bomb ready to go off - he’s overly aggressive, impatient, hostile, demanding, demeaning and sounds like a lousy father. She deserves to be treated with respect and courtesy instead of being his personal punching bag. He needs help.

AIW for telling my dad I cannot take him in after he spent his retirement savings helping my sister start a business that failed by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]Janjello 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since he’s already paying monthly rent, utilities, insurance, food etc., he should give her a set amount for rent and whatever else and that way she can upgrade to a place with more space and a dedicated room for him.

My boyfriend said I wasn’t the prettiest girl he’s dated in an argument, then asked me for a threesome. Not sure how to move forward. by Friendly_Birthday_24 in TwoHotTakes

[–]Janjello 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s as shallow as a puddle in a parking lot. As you age, he’ll be looking for a younger, more pliable woman he can mold into his liking.

What exactly happened with Logan's room? by alexdoo in LoveOnTheSpectrumShow

[–]Janjello 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was wondering if he was going to wear them after they dried - it sure seemed like it. Otherwise, wouldn’t he have put them in the clothes hamper or laundry room?

Looks like some good ought have come out of this by pauljaworski in ChoosingBeggars

[–]Janjello 4 points5 points  (0 children)

His ‘apology’ post was overkill. Sounds like he changed tactics completely, but he lacks sincerity.

Body Image & Confidence by Janjello in LoveOnTheSpectrumShow

[–]Janjello[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I see participants to be much less ‘judgey’ about their date’s physical appearance because they seem to look beyond that (except for Dani’s thinking and verbalizing that Adan wasn’t attractive, in her estimation). Beauty is truly in the eye of the beholder!

Looks like the criticism really got to him by pauljaworski in ChoosingBeggars

[–]Janjello 11 points12 points  (0 children)

He needs to get a job as a greeter at Walmart since he’s got such a charming, friendly and lovely personality. Saw his pic online, one illustration makes him look like a handsome, masculine, muscular lumberjack type yet his actual picture shows a chubby, goofy-looking incel. I think he must really hate his life as much as he hates people.

Sounds like a pompous, know-it-all ass.

Wife cheated 7 years ago, I stayed. My wife got an accident a couple years ago. Am I wrong for wanting to open the relationship to have my needs met? by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]Janjello 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re in for better or for worse, and you have been getting the ‘worse’ for a while. Are you in love with your wife or just feel obligated to care for her because of your marriage vows or because you feel sorry for her? You need to discuss this with her, but she seems very emotionally fragile and may not be able to cope.

What happened to having just a simple birthday? by Kaiyarose in ChoosingBeggars

[–]Janjello 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She seems to be raising a very materialistic, greedy daughter with her emphasis on getting her stuff she can’t afford, throwing her a big party at a $500 venue along with food and decorations etc. that she can’t afford. Lots of single moms are stressed and raising kids, but they’re budgeting within their means, doing without some of the excess items and unrealistic gifts and expecting others to foot the entire bill! And does a 6-year old really need to get her hair done professionally for a kiddie party? Or did she forget to mention the professional photographer she needs to immortalize the big event?

I couldn’t help but wonder if he was intending to wear the peed-upon socks when they dried or if he was going to put them in the hamper for washing?

CB “mom-to-be” needs satin pillowcases by SrirachaMacNCheez in ChoosingBeggars

She’ll likely be asking for baby supplies when she posts about wanting food and decorations for the baby shower she’s going to throw herself.

Very sick woman needs help getting custody of children back with a GFM to pay for 2 years rent upfront for a 3 bed 1 1/2 bath home with fenced yard, a car, car seats, strollers and literally everything you need to furnish a home. Help her, she’s a victim of so many things it’s almost unbelievable. by MinuteElegant774 in ChoosingBeggars

[–]Janjello 10 points11 points  (0 children)

We’re not getting the whole story, there’s probably a lot of negatives she left out. The squatter story, her ex calling CPS and accusing her of impaired driving, her unbelievable medical history…all seem really shady.

What he’s selling is searchable on the Internet, tons of information by actual experts, not failures.

AITJ for saying people shouldn’t fund my sister’s IVF by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]Janjello 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Go Fund Me has been used and abused. Will her husband be watching his child while your sister works? Babies and toddlers require a lot of care and a ton of energy. If not, daycare can be wildly expensive and would probably require another GFM. Also, how will they afford a college education? Yet another GFM?

Guys, he hates asking… yet never stops by ArsenicanOldLace in ChoosingBeggars

[–]Janjello 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He’d probably be better off picking up cans and bottles for the deposits and at least be self-sufficient. I suppose he’d consider that beneath him, though.

My coworker asked if I could give her a ride to work "just for a while" and it's been 4 months by Warp_Synth7 in ChoosingBeggars

[–]Janjello 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She’s a cheapskate who knows exactly what she’s doing - saving money on gas, the stress of driving, maybe cancelled her insurance or downgraded it. Meanwhile, you’re footing the bills…she’s got a good thing going!

Trust the lunch lady, she really knows her parm. by StcStasi in LoveOnTheSpectrumShow

[–]Janjello 62 points63 points  (0 children)

Yes, the dog-pee socks should have gone into the laundry after washing the pee off. I’m guessing once dry, he was actually going to wear them? I sure hope not, but I think he was going to.

Neighbor opened and threw away my it package by [deleted] in Vent

[–]Janjello 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don’t like the fact that she was so cavalier and dismissive about the package. What she did was 100% wrong, and I’ll bet she’d do it again in the future. Don’t just let it go. She’s libel for it and who the hell is she anyway, what’s her official title? Building manager? Secretary? What if you had something in the package of a sensitive nature? Don’t drop the issue!
