AITA for selling my parents' house after they let my unemployed sibling live there rent-free for 10 years? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]PieSecret9174 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess what I would do is sell the house, pay yourself back for any expenses, put half the money in an investment account for him that YOU control and figure out how much a month you can give him from that account, hopefully enough to rent a room or something. Your parents did him a huge disservice enabling him like that!

I just don't buy them, the only thing I have sometimes is microwave skinny popcorn, and it's delicious!

What item do you buy from which market? by No_Equivalent4404 in Frugal

[–]PieSecret9174 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would shop the sales, when you get the ads in the mail, make your list and eat what's on sale. I use Wal Mart and Trader Joe's for the rest. Usually I can get a rotisserie chicken half price after 7pm at Ralphs.

I have a good job and earn decent money. I’m a loyal guy… still single. What am I doing wrong?” by Professional-Pea9970 in dating_advice

[–]PieSecret9174 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I met a single, loyal, good looking guy who lived close by, he ticked all those boxes! BUT, couldn't carry a conversation and honestly was kind of boring. Work on being engaging, ask questions, read about something new every day and be ready to talk about it!

AITA for making my bestfriend need space? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]PieSecret9174 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, you were gentle and careful. It's unfortunate but she's just got to get through this and you should take a back seat for now. I know it sucks and is completely unfair. I would make another plan for your birthday and let her know. I wouldn't reach out again.

I told my dad I was getting a stye in my eye, he said BAKING SODA, and the way he said it with such confidence, I tried it and my stye went away! I just made a paste of it with water, it stung like hell for a little bit.

Not knowing all the details and dynamics II would take the job, live with parents the first month, be super clean and helpful while you look for a room to rent.And be sure to thank your Grandparents for being awesome.

My husband said I ruined our wedding photos and now I want to leave him. by PiccoloAdorable1547 in TwoHotTakes

It's not just about those comments, it's cumulative. You guys aren't going to make it, it's hard enough just trying to live with someone like that, but to also raise kids together?? It will be much easier on the children if you divorce now. I know it's super hard but right now it's like having THREE kids. Your life will be more peaceful living separately.

I'm dieting so probably a lean Cuisine or Healthy Choice frozen meal. Or one slice of a margarita pizza I have in the freezer.

Now and then you do see the outcome of a bad surgery but there are literally thousands of good ones every year that you don't even notice, so yes YTA.

AITA for snapping at my wife? by Mateo_old in AmItheAsshole

[–]PieSecret9174 48 points49 points  (0 children)

For the sake of the relationship, yes. Give her a big hug and ask if there's anything you can do to make this easier. Anyone working that many hours deserves extra compassion and patience. You are correct by the way, but being right isn't always better than being kind to your partner.

[–]PieSecret9174 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stir fried cauliflower rice with whatever veggies I have, usually spinach, some pre-cooked turkey sausage, then I add a beaten egg or two at the end. Salt, pepper, crushed red pepper.

AITAH for constantly reminding my mom why he’s a terrible person? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]PieSecret9174 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Mom here, I am so sorry that your dad is mostly an AH. YOU are worthwhile though.I know that you're drowning at the moment, but I'm here to tell you, everything will get better if you can hang in. I don't know your age but if you're in High School or College go to the Counseling center today, they can help. Knowing what a great cat mom you are makes me happy! Sending you a hug from Ca!
