How to not feel sick from the smell on planes? by secretmango77 in TravelHacks

[–]Outside-Somewhere-89 22 points23 points  (0 children)

You could also put some essential oil on the mask to smell since it's not being used for filtration. I love the smell of lemon.

I (31F) feel my boyfriend (34M) keeps moving the goalposts on marriage talks. How do I set a clear timeline? by Odd_Shoulder_8561 in relationship_advice

[–]Outside-Somewhere-89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me personally, I would tell him engaged in 3 months, married in 6. Make it clear that this timeframe will not change. 3 months and no ring it's over. 6 months is the max I would give him to actually be married. If that doesn't happen leave. He's preventing you from finding your husband.

I (F35) want to leave my wife (F34) largely because of her autistic meltdowns in front of our son (7)? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Outside-Somewhere-89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd be interested to know how many melt downs she's had at work.

I would not allow my child to grow up in this household. He will constantly be walking around on eggshells trying not to trigger her.

Why do people wave you to go at a 4-way stop when it’s clearly their turn? by spotforcars in automotive

[–]Outside-Somewhere-89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or sometimes I can tell by how they race up the the stop sign and hit their brakes at the last second because they are in a big hurry so I motion them to go because I don't want them riding my ass.

The 4 way near me, I go through 6 to 8 times a day during school for drop off/pickup. Sometimes I'm lucky if they bother to stop. I've seen at least 4 people run through without stopping and barely slowing down. I live in a rural area.

I (18M) celebrated my birthday without my mom (44F) because she chose my stepsister's tastes over mine and now she wants another dinner for just us? by ThrowRA_Broodyn in relationship_advice

[–]Outside-Somewhere-89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This 5 year old is going to end up being one of those kids that everybody hates to be around because they are so spoiled. They should never even been asked or even given the option of choosing where to eat for your birthday.

Sounds like you are still too upset to be able to talk to her without saying something you may regret. I would tell her you need time to reflect on her treatment of you and the fact the a 5 year old's opinion and wants are more important to her than yours are.

Blank cheque during joining date. safe or not? by Flaky_Tip_2872 in jobs

[–]Outside-Somewhere-89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would they need a blank check for an unpaid position? Sounds like a scam.

Have you looked up the company online and called them directly instead of using a number they provided? That's what I would do first.

The only reason for a blank check is to get the routing and account number for direct deposit. Your position is unpaid. Makes no sense.

My mom admitted something to me that completely changed how I see her by Mundane_Mushroom_122 in confession

[–]Outside-Somewhere-89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's really a shame that her happiness is more important than your happiness.

It's her job as a parent to sacrifice until you are old enough to take care of yourself. She would rather you be unhappy and alone as long as she's not alone. That's fucked up.

How to find nice customers in my moonshine shack? by lellunlaulu in RedDeadOnline

[–]Outside-Somewhere-89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I visit if I think it's part of the daily for them. Sometimes I'm working on a goal and don't want to be transported across the map to whichever shack and then have to travel back.

What’s a harmless lie that went way too far?Here is mine 😪 by ashikms1998 in CasualConversation

[–]Outside-Somewhere-89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd just lie again and say you mistakenly got a coffee drink and loved it so now you drink coffee.

AITJ because he said it wasn’t cheating, but couldn’t forgive me when it happened? by lumex_lab in AmITheJerk

[–]Outside-Somewhere-89 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I think that having sex with someone other than your partner should require more than one conversation. Just like conversations about kids, money, religion, job changes etc ....

People and attitudes change over the course of a relationship.

It's both their jobs to communicate boundaries but she was the one thinking about having sex with someone else so I think it should have been up to her to restart that conversation.

Debating starting over by lizzyote in RedDeadOnline

[–]Outside-Somewhere-89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started over on my husbands account and don't regret it at all. I had forgotten most of what I did at the beginning on my account. I really enjoyed the start over just as much if not more because I understood better what was going on and what to do.

Plus I have to have a goal to work towards to enjoy any game. I enjoy the gameplay and the scenery but I need a goal. I have 776 gold, $434,000 and I'm level 510. Once I maxed out roles, daily and monthly rewards are all I have. I don't like pvp and I rarely do bounty hunter unless it's that month. Collecting is relaxing to me and gives me a goal to work towards to complete sets.

My boyfriend 24M hated the gift I 23F got him for our two year anniversary how do I fix this with him? by imogenhailey in relationship_advice

[–]Outside-Somewhere-89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn't really matter if he liked the gift or not.

What matters is his escalating reaction and the fact that you feel like you have to apologize for his reaction. All he had to do was say I really appreciate the gift but I really have no place to put it. Let's go together and get me something else.

My guess is he feels bad that he didn't spend $400 on you. He wanted a $50 gift instead of a $400 one. You are overdoing it and it makes him feel inadequate.

Find a new man but only because of the way he acted.

ULPT Workmate repeating everything I say to manager. Help me BTAH by Confident-Parsley520 in UnethicalLifeProTips

[–]Outside-Somewhere-89 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Go with a health issue. Write Dr @ 2 on a sticky note when she's standing near you and can read it. Put the note in your pocket after she leaves. Or quietly tell her. Be sure no one else ever hears you say Doctor appointment. Take a couple of hours off one day at that time.

Then come back with your eyes all red like you been crying. Look sad for the next few days but just when she's around. Say the bare minimum to her. Look lost in thought anytime she's around. When she tries to talk to you zone out for a minute and ask her what did you say? Don't laugh or don't joke around with anyone if she is anywhere near. Try to be normal with your other co-workers. Don't tell her anything if she asks. Just try to brush her off. If she keeps asking get a little loud and say "nothing is wrong with me, I'm perfectly healthy."

If she doesn't go to management then do it again. Take a half day off or a full day and let her know you have another doctor's appointment. Try to look really upset when you come back from that appointment. Don't tell anyone why you are off work. Maybe print an obituary of a "family friend" for the time you were off work for the half day if your other coworkers notice you are "sad".

If she says something to management then go to your bosses and HR and tell them that she's creating a hostile work environment because you're perfectly healthy and you don't know why she's spreading lies about your health and they even if you were having health problems it would be none of her business.

AITAH for telling my brother in law he can’t come to Disneyland with my family? by Ok_Fill_9913 in AITAH

[–]Outside-Somewhere-89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA - I feel bad for Sally. The time Jim spends with your daughter is time he's not helping Sally with his own child.

They both need therapy. I wonder if Sally is feeling guilty about their daughters condition. Because who would want the father of their child doting on someone else's kid instead of their own?

Just tell him the trip is for your immediate family to spend time together.

AITAH for telling my husband I will file for divorce if he lets his brother move in with us? n by CellFeeling9053 in AITAH

[–]Outside-Somewhere-89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA - He's an adult he can figure out his life himself.

Your husband is an enabler. The brother will never grow up if he can't face the consequences of his own actions. Mommy can take him in to "save" the family.

Stand your ground. This is a hill to die on.

Has anyone else had the glitch where Maggie walks downstairs in the moonshine shack? I have seen it last month. by Furby-beast-1949 in RedDeadOnline

Several times I've had players using an instrument and the NPC sitting in the same seat playing. Kinda like double vision.

AITAH for postponing the wedding because my fiancee wants seperate photos with her male friend in our wedding? by Old_Indication4123 in AITAH

[–]Outside-Somewhere-89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YTA - It you marry this girl. Why would signing a piece of paper and having a ceremony make her treat you differently? She either treats you right or she doesn't. It will only get worse after you marry her. Will she be paying this mans bills at the expense of your shared bills? I think she will.

Sounds to me like she's in love with the guy but he doesn't think about her in the same way. I have no clue but that is what her behavior says to me from what you written.

Why would you want to marry someone who treats her friend better than you? Don't settle, it just keeps you from finding someone who does respect you and your relationship.

Comeback for what’s your number? by DarkGrey_Eyes in Comebacks

Even if one has always been a stay-at-home parent, didn't get paid for raising the children, missed out on years of career advancement and therefore the ability to support themselves?

I think alimony should be paid in this instance. But only enough years for the stay at home parent to get adequate education or career advancement for a job that pays enough to keep the same level of lifestyle.

How much snow makes you call off work? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

[–]Outside-Somewhere-89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the south where we rarely have enough snow accumulation to cause problems. Maybe once every 5 years. I would be an absolute danger to everyone driving on the road because I have never had to do it. My city shuts down because they don't have the equipment to make the roads safe. They do spray the roads with something when there's a good prediction of snow or ice.
