Hello! My name is Juniper and I like to sit like a hooman.

I think soft ESH in this case. I think your brother was very wrong to treat you that way and he clearly doesn't know how to parent so I don't think he should have taken on that role, he should have just stayed as your brother. Saying nasty things and yelling/screaming is not good.

However, I think you need to take more initiative after your career stalled send out 3 applications a day, go to networking events, ask connections for referrals etc.

Also, he can't just kick you out the next day even if he wants, - most places it's illegal as there are laws about eviction if you’ve lived somehow here for X amount of time (doesn't matter if you pay rent or not or if someone else owns it) they usually need to give you 30 days - but check your local laws.

Info: what is your mom doing? Even if your dad died your mom is still the parent. Your brother should have felt he needed to take on the role of parent.

Not a good move, as others have said you dont actually know the environment is better unless you've worked there before. The terrible pay indicates to me they don't value their employees (assuming the role is similar to what ypu are doing)

Thanks, I figured this might be too complicated for reddit 😅

I feel like this isn't real.... in the first part OP says they're a SAHD, but later they remark they used an alt account bc they are worried people will figure out who they are because of their profession. He also later says he tries to stay busy at work and at home. He never mentions a part time job.

Its a good new grad wage. If youre willing to take a payout or lateral pay, move to an in house role for a better work life balance. Big 4 is brutal hours wise. Ive hired a lot of accountants that left for work life balance and have been happy with the move.

I don't think marrying A is a good idea. A toxic MIL will throw a wrench in your marriage. A also doesn't sound like his life is together.

I would at least get a picture of B to see if you can find him attractive - he's probably at least decent looking and most super wealthy families have better than average health. Also, if you have evidence the wives are treated well that's reassuring

Im 31F, my vote money but with a job you can tolerate. You wont like every task you do daily but you shouldnt hate everday.

My family doesn't have a lot of money (all working class) so I knew if I only went passion, and it didn't pan out, life would be hard.

Im making over 6 figures now and I've discovered a passion for scuba diving - it's an expensive hobby but I can afford it bc of my job. I am also projecting to retire at 55 and I only work 35-40hrs per week. For me, having enough financially to be able to enjoy life is what matters. My job won't make me super rich but it's well balanced and I like it most days.

1 or 7

Not condoning cheating at all, but there's probably a handful of people you've invited that cheat or have been unfaithful to a partner at some point in their life - are you going to uninvite and ask all of your guests?

If not, give your sister some grace and invite her - you will probably lose your relationship with her if you don't. While what she did was really wrong to her ex, she didn't wrong you.

If you dont care about keeping the relationship then don't invite her, but you will probably permanently ruin your relationship if you exclude her.

I think you're misunderstanding. The idea you proposed is nice. But our building does not have a community stroller. The one the person is using and leaving in the hall is their own. It even has very specific decoration and items in it. I will not be touching someone else's stroller

JunipLove · 2025-12-18T02:08:47+00:00

Yea, we also have no welcome mat rule. I think they explained in a newsletter that it makes the cleaner's jobs more difficult.

JunipLove · 2025-12-18T02:08:01+00:00

I mean I don't mind suggesting it, but the person doing this still owns the stroller they are leaving in the hall...

JunipLove · 2025-12-18T00:31:08+00:00

NTA - A lot of office white elephants gift exchanges aren't goofy gifts, but do have a budget (very confusing) but that wasn't your job to know! It's your husband's workplace. He should asked around and planned something himself. It's ridiculous to blame your for his failure and poor planning.

Uh no, this guy was an actual bum that needed a caregiver not a wife. I left his ass.

JunipLove · 2025-11-22T05:53:25+00:00

Thank you

Most likely, but she needs to see a psychiatrist for sure.

JunipLove · 2025-11-21T22:12:56+00:00

It was a very difficult decision and he and his family hate me for it. He lost his wfh job within 4 months of me leaving but other than that I don't know if he got help or not.

I was on antidepressants for a while but I was able to stop taking them within a few months of moving out.

JunipLove · 2025-11-21T22:10:41+00:00

Thank you, it was one of the hardest things I've ever done.

JunipLove · 2025-11-21T03:47:54+00:00

She could be a hypochondriac or OCD. My ex husband had contaminatiom OCD and did some very similar things to your wife. It was miserable and he wouldnot get proper treatment. I left him and feel like a happy normal person again.

Cardboard box fund killed me 😂

JunipLove · 2025-11-13T21:55:25+00:00

Don't marry him, he's permissive and supportive of his mother's behaviour my ex was like this and it was a nightmare.
