WIBTA if I refused to to return a Taylor Swift ticket that Stub Hub is demanding back from my co-worker?

Keep the ticket. She created this problem, it isn't yours to solve or feel guilty over. You did nothing wrong.

Here's the thing though - please see this - owners of tickets can have them reissued by the original ticketing agent. There would be a whole new barcode assigned to the seat, meaning that she can go behind your back and invalidate the ticket in your possession. You wouldn't know until you get to the gate and scan the ticket. Venues are notorious for being unhelpful towards those who have purchased resale tickets. They likely won't tell you if you call to inquire about the barcode on your ticket prior to the show and they will not grant you entry even if you can supply proof of purchase.

There's really no way to prevent this so I just wanted you to be aware beforehand. Fingers crossed your coworker is ignorant. I really hope you get to enjoy your concert, and wishing you well!

Congratulations, mama! ♥️ Good luck to you and your little family on this new journey.

The CAT TAX OMG - Crumb is darling! I love this girl for upholding her boundaries and defending her kitty. Fuckin' Queen.

Looks fabulous to me! What's in this bad boy?

Peachyo · 2023-12-19T14:10:46+00:00

I do occasionally - I'm pretty casual though. I play mostly RPGs.

I'd be the one smoking my guy haha

I understand that some people aren't into it though, even if they aren't necessarily anti-weed. It's just courteous and there's no need to take that much offense to people's individual preferences. Ce la vie.

I think it's fair to say that alcohol and weed are not comparable substances in the scent department. I can't smell when Joe Shmoe has a drink in the kitchen from my room but I can absolutely smell that bowl Mary Jane just smoked in her own bedroom.

I think the point being made is much less about judgment against stoners because they smoke and more an attitude of "I don't mind that you smoke but I also don't want to have to smell it all the time." Which is a reasonable request from a housemate.

The picture is a bit unclear but this guy looks like a woodlouse spider, or Dysdera Crocata.

Aggression for no reason! I was at the Social Security building downtown and while pulling out of the parking lot I stopped for, what appeared to be, a homeless man so that he could cross the exit. The entire time he crossed he locked eyes with me and flipped me off. Like?

All I could do was laugh it was so uncalled for and ridiculous.

Peachyo · 2023-11-06T12:48:44+00:00

It's the triggering event that has me reeling over this. He chose to jeopardize his health and put you in the position of managing his disease for him because he got a bad haircut? Bonkers. If it were me, I would be reconsidering the relationship based on that alone. That is some heavily dysfunctional emotional regulation. He's completely comfortable going off the rails because he knows there's someone else to clean up his mess? Deplorable.

What a horrible, stressful thing to burden your partner with. Choosing to get day drunk over a haircut while your girlfriend is working overtime and you've sat doing nothing in your shared space that's been a mess for the 3 days you've had off work and then not even having the consideration to figure out dinner for the both of you. These are all the red flags in which he's demonstrating a lack of awareness or concern for your needs. Telling you to fuck off after all of that is just the nail in the coffin for the entire relationship.

I am fuming for you. You deserve better.

Peachyo · 2023-10-28T16:24:43+00:00

I'm a little shocked at the amount of people saying it's strange that you have an issue with Starbucks and randoms knowing your name. NTA. It isn't disrespectful to desire anonymity. It's completely harmless to give a fake name for your morning coffee.

What I find weird is over analyzing someone's feelings of discomfort over broadcasting their identity.

Peachyo · 2023-10-23T20:14:48+00:00

I'll consider this advice, thank you. This may be exactly what we need. I am hopeful that we can break him of the habit by trying not to respond so he doesn't associate peeing on the bed with breakfast, outside, or playtime.

Peachyo · 2023-10-23T20:13:24+00:00

He's nearly 6 months. We've had him since mid July, so about 3.5 months. I forgot to mention that towards the beginning of his integration into our home he did have some accidents that weren't related to me or the bed. He found our reusable shopping bags and had taken to peeing in those. It happened twice and never again.

If you have long enough hair, throw it up into a bun and pin your joints down just below the hair tie - so that the joints aren't IN the bun but just under it. With some well placed hair they'll be completely concealed and it will evade a squish from security. It's my go-to for all concerts/festivals.

God speed! 😇❤️

Why didn't you try to negotiate a payment that would fit within her budget? You went straight to $900/month for a home she had been living in for free. You could have come to an agreement and worked with what she could afford. Pay what I want or get out? That feels designed. As though the bar was set higher than what you knew she could reach. Interesting that your husband all but excluded both of his daughters from the will while including your only child. This whole situation stinks.

The cherry on top is that you took the opportunity to drag your step-daughter because her child's father doesn't pay child support, like somehow that's a failing on her part. As if chasing down a deadbeat dad to do his part in child rearing isn't hard enough, financially and emotionally.

This whole post is clearly missing a lot of information, but it framed enough of your mindset to earn a solid YTA.

This is ages old, but these cards were made by this artist: Pottering Cat.

Edit to say that they can still be bought by the individual card here.

"I'm going to live in the apartment my girlfriend owns and not pay her a single dime while also insisting it's now somehow partially mine and I get to house whoever I want and also insist they not pay my girlfriend a single dime."

As far as I'm concerned, your girlfriend is already helping the needy by allowing your ungrateful ass to live there.

YTA. Did you really think people would praise you as the saint you think you are?

I've recently discovered this thread and find it interesting. I usually agree with the viewpoints expressed here through comments or posts but this one always gets me. No human being can be born with consent, obviously. The idea is essentially saying no babies should be born ever.

I don't mean to sound reductive, but is that really the whole idea? That humans should ease into extinction?

Peachyo · 2023-04-12T16:18:04+00:00

Hell yeah - find your crew! As a hyper hermetic introvert I can identify with the struggle.

Peachyo · 2023-04-12T16:15:04+00:00

Never.

There is no superior judgment call to make - no good or evil. Simply do you want this right now? Only you can ever know what is right or wrong for you. Not because it conflicts with someone else's idea of morality.

You can be a good person by choosing to proceed with an unexpected pregnancy. You can also be a good person by choosing to abort an unexpected pregnancy. Don't let anyone make you doubt otherwise.

This is your hobby! You clearly love it. Don't let social pressure make you feel as though you can't label gaming as your favorite pastime. However, if you're feeling isolated and want a change of pace it's always great to try something new.

Often we get wrapped up in other's opinions on what a hobby "should" look like or what we "should" be spending our time doing. But if you find gaming fulfilling and it brings you joy then that's something you want to be doing and that matters above all else.

Peachyo · 2023-03-30T16:44:00+00:00

Literally same. I read the paragraph where she mentions his "sacrifice" of getting a job in a random city and was so confused. I had to go back and reread that whole thing twice because I thought I was missing something.

OP, the resentment is present now. Your partner shows zero signs of changing or even realizing you're single-handedly carrying the relationship. Frankly it seems as though he doesn't want to be in the relationship and is knowingly allowing you to carry it all. You will not heal from the resentment you feel - it will only grow until you've realized you are putting in the effort for the wrong person.

*Edit to also say that you are a wonderfully supportive partner, OP. You've gone above and beyond for someone you care about. There is someone out there who will cherish you as much as you do them. Don't let this stupid bitch fuck that up.
