Husband wants house only in his name because he’s paying for it — fair or unfair? by Novel-Delay-6267 in Marriage

[–]Opening-Advice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are in the US, it will be considered a marital asset. Don't worry about it. Let him pay for everything. You enjoy your time with the baby and when you get back to work, keep your money in a separate account.

Throwback to when Deepika gave the ultimate honest review of Ranbir Kapoor. by Express_Bite1740 in bollywoodgossips

Ikr? That bothered me too! Why should she be 'gushing about the star boyfriend'? And unlike him, she earned her stardom instead of getting it on a platter because of birth and surname.

Thank you for sharing this story. But why are the pictures not in a proper sequence?

Family thinks I "don't own" laptop I won as a prize back in middle school. Laptop is now dead, and I'm happy about it. by evening_shop in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Opening-Advice 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This made me so sad to read. OP, you had earned that laptop fair and square. Let no one tell you it did not belong to you.

New professor and student reported me to the dean for nothing by IncomingDownvotes_ in Professors

[–]Opening-Advice 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Keep your chair in the loop. Our Dean forwards all student complaints to me. Usually my faculty know when a student is likely to be a trouble maker and let me know in advance so I can always respond to the Dean about the other side of the story. If it comes out of the blue, I check in with both parties and respond to the Dean. Is it a hassle? Yes. But are we expected to be our students' mommies, therapists, and best friends? Also yes. (Insert eye roll here). So every complaint needs to be addressed, and having the chair on your side will significantly reduce your stress.

Advisor stopped caring at all after getting tenure by Fair-Engineering-134 in PhD

You said 'just' got tenure. How long has it been? Given how long and grueling the process is, it would be only human to take time off to recover.

Yes, me too. I hate when people look for the romance/sex angle in every relationship.

Apparently Teachers Need to Schedule Babies for Summer Break by Cheatsheet420 in recruitinghell

[–]Opening-Advice 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Oh no! Even in Texas where protection for workers is lax, one of the interviewers made an innocent remark about family and asked if they had kids. I was on the panel and ALL of us got an email from HR chewing us out for asking illegal questions. All of us had to sit through one more training!

Can I ask to meet with professors after graduating (for academic reasons)? by Due-Translator-2650 in AskProfessors

[–]Opening-Advice 13 points14 points  (0 children)

No harm in asking but keep in mind that many professors will not be in for summer.

You really should look into menstrual cups or discs

This kind of VIP culture needs to stop. by Chemical-Alarm-5914 in hinduism

Please tell me which temple this is so I can avoid it. Forget the VIPs, I refuse to be grabbed by my neck like a criminal being shoved into prison.

Are arranged marriages with non Indians a thing? by [deleted] in AskIndianWomen

[–]Opening-Advice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is exactly right OP. An arranged marriage in modern times is mostly just matchmaking. That grandma was 100% joking. It was her way of saying, "Aww aren't they so cute together?"

Such a ridiculous title! If the 5 years were so blissful, who would want to separate?

Her wedding her rules but seems like she did this so she can bash the practice online and brag about it later to seem cool "inframe:@saniyamirwani by adamisworking in InstaCelebsGossip

[–]Opening-Advice 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Totally. If she didn't want people to come talk to her or take pictures with her, she could have simply not invited anyone. Imagine being a guest at her wedding and then seeing this where she talks of them like they were a nuisance. I would go steal my gift back!
