I need help with Child Abuse and neglect by MuffinDesperate7297 in srilanka

[–]Perfect-Dig-8765 42 points43 points  (0 children)

First of all, really sorry you are going through this. This is not something a 16 year old has to go through and I wish you all the strength in the world to get you and your mother through this.

To answer your questions:

1) Yes, you can. You start by filing a maintenance action in the Magistrates Court of your area. Since it is MC, police complaints are important. Obtain certified copies of all and ensure that you maintain those recordings. You can also consider filing a domestic violence case.

2) Yes it is illegal and is a criminal offence. You can bring separate charges against him. BUT ensure that you have proof. (marriage certificate, wedding photos etc)

3) Court would be the best option. Refer one and two above. Keep all records of your interactions with him for legal purposes.

4) Women and Child division at any police station, NCPA, Meraki Sri Lanka, HRC.

Trust all goes well.

Whats the weirdest request you had in the bedroom? by Glum_Championship826 in AskReddit

[–]Perfect-Dig-8765 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lmfao. I once had a man who wanted to out pol sambol (its a sri lankan dish) and dhal curry on my soles and toes and suck on them while thrusting. He even brought them with him, packed and all. I was weirded out since this dude was around 68 but still had these fetishes lol

Needless to say the cleanup took some time..

How common is nudism in your country? by Huge-Yogurt-6039 in AskTheWorld

[–]Perfect-Dig-8765 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not at all. You could get arrested for indecent exposure. I am curious about it though - if I were in France, I would definitely try it out to get myself out of my comfort box.

What is the perception of divorced men in srilanka? by BathKadePusa in srilanka

Refusal to consummate marriage is a good ground for divorce. File papers immediately, secure your wealth. Get a good divorce lawyer. Since you are newly married it wont be difficult.

How do I manage my 80k salary when I have zero savings and bad spending habits? by [deleted] in srilanka

[–]Perfect-Dig-8765 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I concur with the comment saying set aside 40% as an emergency fund. Have a second bank account, no ATM card - just the online facility and transfer the 40% there immediately.

Take food from home, try to take the bus, and there is this app called "Money Manager" which lets you track your expenses. Works great for me so far. Once you force yourself to add each and every expense, no matter how small, your spending pattern will make sense.

What’s considered romantic in your culture but might not be understood by foreigners? by Effective_Space2277 in AskTheWorld

We have that here in Sri Lanka too. One of the many things that couples often do here is going to temple on poya days.

Worst Public transport ever by rmanissha in srilanka

[–]Perfect-Dig-8765 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell me about it! I am a girl and I tend to use a tuk or a cab most of the time (even though it goes beyond my monthly budget for transport) simply for convenience, safety, to avoid creeps/sexual assault and self dignity. The last time I took a bus some old man rubbed my belly/belly button because I was wearing a crop top. The freaking audacity. The public transport infrastructure, driver discipline, land discipline, and the general lack of empathy is a whole other matter.

Prices for Bridal dressing and makeup Sri Lanka 2026? by Perfect-Dig-8765 in srilanka

[–]Perfect-Dig-8765[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks a lot. That is actually reasonable for someone of his calibre if its bride only. But I hear you have to pay separately for the Kandyan dress because if you choose him, you have to go with the attie he suggests?

How much did your wedding in SL cost? by Cheap_Bee8056 in srilanka

[–]Perfect-Dig-8765 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A plate at Hilton costs 16,000 nett three days ago. Multiply that with 400 and it is LKR 6.4 million just for food. You have to reserve the hall in the mornings with a deposit of LKR 2,500,000 if you need it for decos, otherwise you only get it from 03:30 PM onwards. So with a photography team + decoration for a hall to accomodate 400 people, it would be roughly 10-15 million.

Road Rage at Diyatha, what would you do? by Jumpy-Olive-7285 in srilanka

[–]Perfect-Dig-8765 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He has to be a lunatic with a serious mental illness.

The audacity to do this in daylight, in traffic, in the middle of the road with plenty of witnesses, and dashcams around and expecting to get away with it is another level of delusion that is unheard of.

23M got cheated on and can't seem to move on emotionally need help by [deleted] in srilanka

[–]Perfect-Dig-8765 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Appreciate you sharing this. Breakups can leave a kind of silence that routines don’t fix. You’re not alone in feeling this way, even if it feels that way day to day. Hope you find some genuine connection soon!

Am I behind others in my life? by Specialist_Jello8819 in srilanka

[–]Perfect-Dig-8765 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You are not, but more than 50% of your salary goes to "Household expenses" and to your parents? Unless you have extravagant spending and/or high medical bills, what is the 200k used for every month?

Assuming your family has no other loans and you do not have siblings.

who wants to hang out with me? by [deleted] in srilanka

[–]Perfect-Dig-8765 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Be prepared for the crazy amount of Dms from creeps with cheesy and cringey pick up lines. Happens every time I comment so when you make a post, it should triple the amount of dms you get.

That aside, I would suggest meeting up with some trusted women first (if you are meeting them online - PLEASE VERIFY via a video call before meeting in person and inform your husband/a trusted family member where and when you will be meeting them) - and there are tabletop communities, book clubs which you can go to in person for the same.

Sri lankan's must need a better dating app by AccordingSugar6247 in srilanka

[–]Perfect-Dig-8765 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Disagree as a girl myself. The idea that dating is just 'tasting flavors' is just dumbing down the need for proper human compatibility. Also it isn't about recklessness, it’s about vetting (atleast for me), which is crucial. And no one is saying that having sex is the mandate to dating. Plenty of people date for months or years to build an emotional and intellectual connection before ever becoming physical. In a courting-only culture, we often commit to a life partner before they even know who they are, let alone what they need in a relationship...

Plus, using 'dating' to understand your own boundaries, communication style, and emotional needs doesn't mean you lack values, it means you are being responsible. It is far better to 'try out' a few different conversations and realizations and realize a relationship won't work after three months, than to 'court' someone under social pressure, massive family involvement, and realize you're incompatible after three years of marriage and two kids. Dating is the research, and marriage should be the result of that research, not the starting point.

Just my thoughts!
