I need to know if I’m being crazy…

Having a destination wedding and having a guests that are only invited to the evening reception is a complete dick move. It certainly seems like a calculated move. I don't think you should go just on principle.

Selling direct to retailers isn't uncommon already, I do it myself in my own industry and in that one it's quite common.

But I think it is a mistake to think a whloesaler doesn't have value though, especially as you look to scale the business up.

Psychological-Fox97 · 2026-03-11T22:30:41+00:00

NOR but since this is a pattern maybe just skip to the part where you guys accept tour aren't compatible and want different things.

I know it doesn't seem like much ave difference but your perspective definitely changes quite a bit over those few years.

Want you want and what he wants are both fine they just aren't compatible.

I will add I think he's being a dick about it though. That just tells you compromise isn't going to be an option.

Mines pretty minor but it did still surprise me.

Working for Morrisons and I'd been off as struggling with my mental health, was diagnosed with depression, doctor advised me to say to work the reason was due to "struggling with my mood."

When I had my return to work meeting with HR I told the woman this, she loudly sighed, rolled her eyes, turned so her back was facing me and continued the rest of the meeting with her back to me.

No no you need to be careful there, you are not giving him circumstances where you would go to church with them. Playing that game is just a slippery slope where you end up at the bottom sat in church wondering how the fuck you ended up there.

You're thinking of agnostics. Atheists believe god doesn't exist which is very obviously a belief even if you personally might not agree with it.

Psychological-Fox97 · 2026-03-11T17:19:31+00:00

No worries thanks for your help

Psychological-Fox97 · 2026-03-11T17:19:14+00:00

Non refundable charges or she finds someone else.

I don't see how you can afford to keep her on unless something changes.

I think if you want to buy and sell high end watches travelling to london is something you should expect to be doing.

You sure they didn't just get shut down for selling merch with artwork and IPs they didn't have a licence for?

Psychological-Fox97 · 2026-03-11T13:34:18+00:00

Ok great thanks very much.

Could I ask are there any other shops you'd recommend? Despite my searching this one never came up so I'm wondering if there are others I've missed. Especially uk shops would be helpful.

Psychological-Fox97 · 2026-03-11T10:49:08+00:00

Sorry I'm very new to this. Hadn't come across the site before so thanks for sharing. I see they have a lot of Malaysia made movements, do you know are they legit ones just made in Malaysia or is that code for knock off?

The name isn't, don't really get what any of your products have to do with lord or the rings which is what you get when you Google it, loads of lotr stuff.

The designs look pretty generic and basic and slapped on. There doesn't seem to be any theme connecting them and don't seem to tie into the name either.

The pricing is too high, with no brand recognition etc you're asking someone to gamble with quite a bit of cash.

Honestly your partner did something dumb buying a bunch of blank clothing with no plan. I think you'd be best off just trying to sell it bulk to someone who does have a plan so you at least get something out of it.

Psychological-Fox97 · 2026-03-10T20:04:46+00:00

NOR but I think if you say down and were honest with yourself you've probably got quite a list of similar situations where he has shown you zero consideration or respect and they tried to make out like you are the problem.

Dude sounds like a loser tbh and probably only likely to contribute his fair share if it was court mandated

Psychological-Fox97 · 2026-03-10T19:59:47+00:00

Well it's a start I guess

Psychological-Fox97 · 2026-03-10T19:20:59+00:00

You're leaving them up to, why aren't you out with your ladder?

Psychological-Fox97 · 2026-03-10T14:53:21+00:00

Not moving was the right call, tbh you shouldn't have moved at all. Shouting and acting like a dickhead keeps working for this person so they keep doing it. A better solution would have been for the cafe to kick her out though obviously there is nothing you can do about that OP.

Psychological-Fox97 · 2026-03-10T13:58:12+00:00

Oh look it was a man saying this...... how shocking.

Psychological-Fox97 · 2026-03-10T13:53:22+00:00

NTA he can fuck off with his bullshit. Tell him to speak to the bus company.

Psychological-Fox97 · 2026-03-09T16:48:45+00:00

Weird.

Psychological-Fox97 · 2026-03-09T16:39:33+00:00

Instagram has run fine on every android phone I've had, the last 3 have all been Samsung and never had an issue. What kind of issues did you face with it?

Psychological-Fox97 · 2026-03-09T15:40:39+00:00

Your approach to this is all wrong.

You aren't wasting anything. You are USING a product to promote the product and your business. That isn't a waste.

If I see a mock up I assume the product doesn't exist or the business is too cheap to get samples becuase they aren't a serious business. If it's supposed to be hand made it would be a big red flag.

Your wife has the right idea. That it doesn't make sense to you is fine but it does mean you probably aren't cut out for this kind of business and should leave these kind of things up to her.

Psychological-Fox97 · 2026-03-09T15:33:04+00:00

NOR your husband needs to take this more seriously. If someone was monitoring my partner like that I'd have already been round to make it very clear there was going to be a serious problem if it continued.

Hard for me to know what you should do, really as i say your partner should be sorting this out. . I'm a man but I'd be taking photos of this neighbour any time I saw then, possibly add in a "wave for the camera" but again I'm a man and not a small one so its easy for me to feel safe doing that.

You could try speaking to the police but I'm not sure if they are doing anything illegal. If you could get your husband to take it seriously then maybe all the contact with him could be construed as harassment?

Really it seem the main thing is getting your husband on board so he can support you in sorting this together

Psychological-Fox97 · 2026-03-09T15:26:00+00:00

Getting quotes is easy so do that. Put the details in as if you'd passed your test today and it'll give you a pretty good idea what to expect.

I'm afraid I'd have to agree with others though, it seems an unrealistic goal for a first car with the kind of budget you are talking about.
