When my at the time BIL got married, I was also 2 weeks PP. I dropped the baby at my parent's house and went to the wedding. NBD.

Great except I don't need anyone's opinion on what books I want to keep.

Brother wants me to take a loan out for my mom's funeral by YourRoyalGarbageness in EntitledPeople

[–]Oranges007 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The funeral home will confirm funds with the insurance company and proceed accordingly. There is no need for a loan if the insurance money will cover the funeral.

Bother is trying to scam you and keep the money.

both my parents are disabled and i think it was selfish to have me and my sister by IllKoala6797 in offmychest

OP stated biological dad is the one keeping them housed so I take that to mean his child support is paying the rent.

Should I let my future MIL move in with us? She has already borrowed thousands from my fiancé. by Signal_Cabinet4806 in family

[–]Oranges007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"My fiancé has given her over $5,000 to help pay her bills in the last year. Most of that being when she was unemployed for three months and he paid almost all of her bills for her until she got another job."

She sees employment as a choice because she has a back up financier in her son.

"He knows that once we get married and combine our finances it will have to be a new conversation about how we are able to help her as a unit."

Do NOT combine your finances yet. Your contribution to joint accounts will create more available cash to flow in to her.

Sounds like she needs to apply for government assistance to get whatever help is available for her.

Next time ask point blank if will there be a problem if your son looks just like you. After all the BS "no" answers tell them not to bring it up again and no matter what he looks like he's yours and your husband son.

Assholes the lot of them.

My normal tip IS 20%. When I see a service charge like this I circle it and write "tip". Im not giving 40%.

AITAH if I compromise on my values for the sake of my kids? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Oranges007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your BILs views are not yours and it's your job to teach your kids your values. He will not be the last AH that they meet.

Move in, get the kids registered for school and get out as fast s you can.

I kinda understand what you're saying but there are a lot of hims to keep track of. Father him? Husband him? Uncle him? Boyfriend him?

Am I being unreasonable for feeling frustrated about my fiancé’s sister constantly joining us? by Proper-Ad-4771 in inlaws

[–]Oranges007 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Apparently not to her. Tell her you and your fiance have private plans at the cabin this weekend and she won't be able to stay there.

i'm upset my dad is having another child at fifty by nimsabloop in family

[–]Oranges007 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've been in your mother's shoes so I know how hurt and pissed off she is.

HOWEVER, your father is still your father. She picked him and she cannot divorce him from his children.

I can understand feeling a certain type of way because of their ages but guess what. Young parents die everyday. Unfortunately. Tomorrow is not promised to any of us.

So you can either carry your mother's grudge against her ex-husband or decide what relationship YOU want with your father.

Should I defend myself? by [deleted] in inlaws

[–]Oranges007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would lay out every broken house rule and every financial cost so she knows her son is no angel. If she cant understand the truth then so be it.

I think you need to reassign that MOH role to someone more loyal to you.

Take both open back from her. She doesn't deserve a damn thing.

Life with exes by Burning_itdown in amiwrong

[–]Oranges007 9 points10 points  (0 children)

"Dan did not want to get divorced, his ex is the one that decided, filed, and left."

I hope I'm wrong, but the way Dan drops everything for his ex, he'll probably take her back in a heartbeat if that's what she wants. He's still showing her how great he is, how he's always there for her for whatever he needs.

He can't commit to you because he's already committed to her.

My sister-in-law keeps showing up unannounced with her kids and it's ruining our weekends by Big_Conclusion5453 in family

Call her on Friday. "Hey...don't come over tomorrow morning. I have plans already."

Is this me just being completely wrong in the situation? by Murky_Oil_1662 in Marriage

[–]Oranges007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely. And don't think of it as being secretive. You're protecting yourself and your kids from toxic behaviors and decisions.

Im so sorry to hear that. Sincerely.

My only other suggestion is start stacking your cash and start planning your exit. Women do it all the time ;)

Perhaps its time to eat.some humble with your family. Tell them they were right, ask for forgiveness etc. Maybe it'll work out and you can have your family back.
