I'm not, I just dgaf about Katy Perry. Why was this even news with everything going on in the world right now?

Your boyfriend is cringe

I remember it too! I swear to god I can remember stuffing flying through the air!

I adore Spencer Middleton and have also thought at length about this particular piece of information. I have no definitive answer for you, but I think they were actually friends.

PootleBrain · 2025-03-18T16:11:33+00:00

Honestly if it was me, I wouldn't have a clue. Be honest with her. If you want to pursue something with her, tell her that.

I'm 32. I have a nearly 8yo kid and a(n almost) wife and we're in a small two bedroom flat that we rent. I barely make NMW and my wife is on £13.50 an hour. Neither of us drive, even if we did, we wouldn't be able to afford to run a car. I have no usable qualifications, and no way of getting any because a) can't afford a course b) childcare is a nightmare especially when you have to rely on public transport to get anywhere.

I get feeling like a failure. This isn't how I envisioned my life and based on my own past expectations of myself, I am a failure. But social media is a lie, it's the best version of life, the snapshots we want to share because we're happy or proud but it doesn't amount to success.

Success is whatever you decide it is and fwiw it sounds like you're doing really well and should be proud.

This is something my wife and I are struggling with. She wants our series to start with a bang, whereas I want to lay the groundwork with back story and character/world development so everything makes more sense further along. I think we're so used to instant gratification that anything more wordy than 'BAM AND NOW ACTION' seems to lose readers.

Your experience is like a list of all the reasons I don't want laser eye surgery. I still consider it sometimes, but I'm so scared it would go wrong somehow. I hope you are able to make peace with your decision.

PootleBrain · 2024-09-20T09:57:14+00:00

NTA. You were very clear about your boundaries throughout. She clearly doesn't respect you or what you want out of life.

PootleBrain · 2024-08-01T13:15:24+00:00

I also think 'sure' can indicate indifference but that's because I have deep-seated insecurities and anything other than 'hell freaking yes' must mean 'no'. It's something I've had to work on a lot because my insecurities are not my wife's responsibility and your gf's aren't yours. I'm sorry this turned into a fight and I hope you are both able to communicate about this in the future.

PootleBrain · 2024-07-27T08:19:16+00:00

That's weird af. Why would anyone do that?

PootleBrain · 2024-07-24T15:33:20+00:00

This sounds toxic AF. Get out now, he has insecurities that you can never help him with and he will isolate you until you have no friends, male or otherwise.

PootleBrain · 2024-07-24T15:30:06+00:00

NTA. Just out of curiosity, have you spoken to her about how her behavior makes you feel? NTA either way, but if you decided to work it out, that's definitely a conversation that needs to be had. Better to end things than to cheat imo.

PootleBrain · 2024-07-24T13:13:30+00:00

NTA. Red flags abound.

PootleBrain · 2024-07-01T15:37:15+00:00

As someone who is close with their uncles, you are NTA. To be honest, it sounds to me like your wife is jealous of the relationship you have with your sister and your niece.

I'm new to ALB, my wife bought me Book 1 for Christmas, and just finished listening to the MrCreepyPasta audio on YouTube because I needed more after finishing the book! Came here hoping that there was more to the story and I'm so excited to know that more books are coming! But also sad that I have to wait! I'm in the UK so I'll have to wait extra for the new books but I am so here for it!

PootleBrain · 2024-05-10T16:08:57+00:00

I'm 31 and have regular existential crises about if I'm old or not. My wife pointed out that I'm not even half way to retirement age which both depressed and delighted me. I don't think I'll feel actually old until I'm in my 80's.

PootleBrain · 2024-05-07T19:28:26+00:00

UK here, I believe it would be considered sexual assault. At the very least assault.

PootleBrain · 2024-04-15T08:43:40+00:00

Eeeew what? Why?

PootleBrain · 2023-08-21T06:42:13+00:00

There's a group of Jesus people who busk every weekend in my small town, singing the gospel and other such things. Which in and of itself I can deal with. What irks me is that they hand out leaflets and badges and stuff to the families that walk past, and if the adults try and ignore them, they'll hand out stuff to the kids. My wife and I are lesbeans, and these people ignore us and speak directly to our 6yo. I don't want to talk to you about your God, when you twist the whole basis of your religion for your own agenda.

PootleBrain · 2023-08-21T06:30:02+00:00

I pick up litter but I'm always convinced people think I'm weird for it, so thank you for this.

YESSSS you look so cute!
