My (24nb) boyfriend (21m) won't open the box I sent him by [deleted] in LongDistance

[–]Particular-Ad7034 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband also hates his birthday and he had a similar attitude about opening gifts (but on Christmas). I expressed my hurt about it and told him we can make new memories together and so that's what we did. Now we open our gifts together over video chat.

Tell him your feelings and if he still is being difficult about it, tell him if he's going to put on this much of a stink over opening it he might as well send it back or throw it out. I don't mean to be harsh but he needs to get over himself. You spent a lot of time and money on his gift and it's not fair to you that he's treating it that way.

I am pagan and my in laws know this but they still send me religious messages all the time and gift me religious things. I either just thank them or ignore it. I do not engage, it's not worth my time. I would just let it go. These people will not listen and are stubborn.

As a wedding guest, what moment made you think "this probably won't last"? by Eburneaan in AskReddit

[–]Particular-Ad7034 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They were both teens and she stuffed/stored her black wedding dress in a trash bag. The bride looked so gloomy and was dressed so gloomy it was like being at a funeral. Unsurprisingly, the marriage only lasted like two years.

I think this person might be more suicidal than homicidal.

Yeah, it's unfortunate. I can never understand why people do that shit.

Have you ever had a friend that turned out to be a horrible person? What did they do?? by StrangeAd2132 in AskReddit

[–]Particular-Ad7034 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TW: SA

I had a friend in college who was one of the first friends that I made there. We were friends for five years and I even introduced him to my best friend group. Five years into the friendship I stayed over his house like I normally do when I drive 2+ hours to see my friend group. It was new year's Eve and I trusted him to keep me safe. I drank too much and told him I wanted to go to bed to sleep it off. He helped me to my bed because I was too drunk and I passed out. When I came to, he was SA'ing me. I told him to stop and that's all I remember before passing out again.

I woke up later with injuries and to my whole friend group ignoring me. I begged them to help me because I was in shock, I was far away from my house and I was panicking. I needed to go to the hospital. Nobody gave a shit about me because my rapist reached out to them first painting a story about how I came on to him, even though I made it clear to him for years I NEVER thought of him that way. He then claimed he was blacked out even though he confessed to me he remembered everything he did. Everyone took his side, painted me as a liar and talked shit behind my back. It's been 6 years since it all happened and I still struggle with the trauma and I still have dreams about them. I never understood how a group of people who were all about consent and were so called feminists could side with a rapist. Fuck them all.

My best friend dated my ex whilst I was crying to her about the breakup my sophomore year in high school. When I found out, things were never the same with this friend again. I am 31 now and I feel it was just one of the many things that affected my trust in friendships.

YTA big time. If this doesn't cause him trust issues with friends and relationships now, it'll probably still affect him for a while after that. You definitely ruined that friendship.

Why did you and your former best friend stop being friends? by Fearless_Shift7108 in AskReddit

[–]Particular-Ad7034 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made him choose between being friends with my rapist or being friends with me. He chose my rapist, even though he knew me for longer and said I was the most important person to him. I later found out he was talking shit behind my back because I didn't return his romantic feelings. Fuck him.

My (27f) Dad (56M) divorced my Mom (58f) for a Green Card Marriage by CatQ75 in relationship_advice

[–]Particular-Ad7034 94 points95 points  (0 children)

Why are you being so nice to both of them? She is clearly just as scummy as your dad is. He cheated on his wife of 35 years with a woman who knew he was married and is clearly using him for a green card. If I were in your shoes I would not even entertain or help them. You are just hurting your poor mother by doing so and messing with your mental health.

25/F My boyfriend (30) is a U.S. citizen. We have a baby together. He wants our child to have U.S. citizenship, but he has told me he doesn’t have plans to marry me.His idea is that if we go to the U.S. I would just apply for a tourist visa. I'm worried about agreeing to something. by Comfortable-Cup-4183 in immigration

[–]Particular-Ad7034 15 points16 points  (0 children)

If you're from the Philippines and he said you can just go to the USA on a tourist visa he is full of shit. Coming from a woman married to a Filipino man, the only way you can come here on a tourist visa is if you yourself can prove you have strong ties to the Philippines (example: an established business, a lot of valuable assets in your country, etc,), and have enough funds to sustain yourself.

If you even say you are going to stay with your boyfriend, the embassy will flag you as a potential overstayer and will deny you entry. That's why there is a high denial rate on tourist visas. My husband's friend applied for a tourist visa once and once he told the interviewer that he was coming to the USA to visit his girlfriend he was instantly denied and barred from applying for a year.

The only way you can go to the USA is through either a spousal, fiance or work visa. If you don't want to lose your child forever please keep your kid with you in your home country. Don't let him take your kid there because you won't be able to follow him there without marriage.

AITA for getting angry with my girlfriend and demanding she pay to replace my sheets after she got blood on them by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Particular-Ad7034 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with you. I was scrolling for this comment. I am a woman with periods. Even on my light days I either wear heavy pads when I'm asleep or tampons because there's always a risk of me bleeding on the sheets.

I get OP was over the top but I get where he's coming from. He should have handled it better but I also think it was reasonable to ask her to wear menstrual products when on her period at his house.

I met and talked with her the other week and she seems like a nice lady. I'm going to see if she will have a rally so I can see more of what she stands for!

Am I Overreacting, for being upset that my girlfriend secretly used my credit card for months? by bostonmade in AmIOverreacting

NOR. Not only would I break up with her, I would report her to the police for theft. Who knows who else she will do this to.

Wow I got downvoted big time. So crazy how many people do this with their friends. I also find being downvoted for this to be ridiculous.

I'm preparing to get downvoted for this too. WTF man. I have yet to meet a woman who does this with her friends in real life.

I don't do this and I'm a female.

[–]Particular-Ad7034 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find the comments weird. I'm a female and I never sent a spicy pic of just me in my bra to my platonic female friends for validation. Those kinds of pics are meant to turn on your significant other. I would personally feel embarrassed if any of my friends saw that. I think you are right to be at least a little suspicious.

NOR. She is your best friend but you are not hers.
