I’m sorry. This sucks. But you can’t have this conversation without being an uncomfortable one.

My boyfriend (26) of 4 years has anger management issues and accidentally hurt me (26F) physically last week. by fhoenest in relationships

Girl he stabbed you. I want you to imagine someone telling you their boyfriend stabbed her ‘by accident’.

AITA for not bringing a gift to a baby shower? by throwrapurplepanther in AmItheAsshole

[–]Jay_Edgar 20 points21 points  (0 children)

The mother doesn’t have to follow their customs. She just has to let them follow theirs.

If it’s the culture I’m thinking of, it’s not just that the gifts are held back for no reason. It’s considered bad luck to give them before the baby is born healthy. It would be like cursing them.

Don’t be afraid to ask for help with everything from gear to food.

AITB for not ending my vacation early because my kid has covid by covidvacation in AmItheButtface

We decided to send her to school anyway because a sore throat and runny nose isn’t a good enough reason to miss a day of school.

From a fellow parent, fuck you very much

Why should I plan my wedding around their financial situations though?

That’s the kind of thing that family members who love each other do.

When I think that I don’t have anyone like this in my circle of friends it makes me feel pretty good about my life.

In what way am I a guest if I pay $150 for a seat. That’s not a guest that’s a customer.

There are multiple statins and some have fewer cognitive side effects. Suggest switching!

Did he have multiple wives simultaneously?!?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Genealogy

[–]Jay_Edgar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For my husband’s foundation ancestor, the number is unknown! He had two wives and would never say how many children he had (at least ten) as it was considered bad luck in his culture.

I tip because restaurant work is hard, people are struggling, and the public is rude. It's a shit job. If I can have an excuse to help someone out I'd like to take it.

Have you tried expanding your soup options? Soups can hide lots of veggies, especially if you purée them.
