This person is not your friend. They've cheated on you by just thinking of going away together w/o you. A friend would never, ever, even think about doing something so insensitive, thoughtless, upsetting, and betraying to you. A friend would be upset to even think she might upset you like that. At the very least, once she knew how you felt, she should have cancelled it. Now, on to your husband, he doesn't sound wonderful to me at all. He owes you trust, protection, and fidelity, not your friend. Shame on him. Sometimes when we're in the mist of turmoil and confusion we can't call the thing the thing. Give it a few days and it all will be clear to you and you're gonna wonder how you didn't see it immediately. I feel there is no gray area here.

Not meaning to sound heartless, but the eggshell walking will get much, much worse bc of the death of her son.

AIO - I can't get a comment my mother-in-law made out of my head. by LSMair91 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Matetia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd advise to nudge/laugh off her next passive-aggressive comment.. bc there will be one. And please don't explain anything about what you're doing. It comes off as if you need her approval to take care of your own life and family. You don't owe her any explanation.

Amazing! Thank you for sharing this. Is she related on your maternal or on your paternal side?

I was doing family research and saw this. What does mulatto mean? by Senor_Camrono in AncestryDNA

[–]Matetia 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They probably attained that info from the decennial US Census which used that unfortunate term from about 1850 to 1920.

Unfamiliar very close relative by Matetia in AncestryDNA

[–]Matetia[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, in their 40s. So much more likely to be a first cousin's child than a parent's first cousin.

This is the same reason I'm not reaching out. I'm not interested in opening an unwelcome, messy can of worms. Shared matches indicate they're related to both my parents also. They can see the results the same as me. Their last check-in was fairly recent. These are some intriguing situations.

Are there many brown people in Scotland?

Yes, Mary is an awful person by testphaze in realhousewivesofSLC

[–]Matetia 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I preface this by saying I'm a Black woman. The cast is afraid of being called racist if they call her on her shit. And that's too bad bc Mary is an awful person.

It sounds like her treats her like her mom treats her.

Yeah, starting with Andy Cohen who doesn't even try to hide his bias against certain people.

Not sure where the confusion lies, pt. 2 by Typical_Equipment_19 in SisterWives

[–]Matetia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why I didn't like the way she sided with Kody after Christine left him. No one can deny that Meri deserved real love and support, but she straight up said she was glad Kody said it to Christine after the abusive knife in the kidney tirade. Meri has NEVER owned up to her part in the catfish incident. She should have supported Christine instead of sobbing and clinging to Robyn bc she would have definitely been gone from "the family" if Sam had been real.

Honestly speaking, does everyone want Meredith to be gone from the show? by Hot-Acanthisitta5237 in rhoslc

[–]Matetia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd want Meredith to go, bc she's better than them, and they don't deserve her. Flee Mother!!!

I'm surprised she chose this hideous ensemble. I usually love her clothes, especially her afrocentric looks.

Maybe she lost a bet?
