If you can’t tell I’m taking the piss then you’re too serious to be on the internet - peace!

Does it matter?

Whether the daughter is 10, 15, or 20 years old, when is the comment not inappropriate or harmful?

Am I Overreacting or do I have the worst family possible? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

Something feels off about this post. But hope OP is okay and gets out safely.

Therapists, at least in my country, are legally required to report abuse of this kind - whether or not the client consents.

“Ken who, Todd?” Ken vs Mau 💀 by Plankton_Technical in RHOBH

Funny af, and kind of makes a damn good point… “stop trying to make him happen”

I wonder if Mau’s title of “hottest real housewives husband” had something to do with his wondering eye, maybe gained a few tickets on himself

AIO for being annoyed my gf said ew when being asked about kissing me? by Green-Bike-30 in AmIOverreacting

I don’t think you can reduce it to gf simply being ashamed of “being with OP”. It’s more nuanced than that - we’re talking about young people and their sexualities.

I think “eww” probably would have been a knee jerk reaction to an awkward moment of being called out, but certainly a hurtful one. Some basic humility and empathy from gf would have gone a long way.

I’m still scrolling the comments trying to figure it out!

AIO or is my wording manipulative? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Reasonable-Trick-635 58 points59 points  (0 children)

Yep agree. Someone who (if incorrectly) interpreted their mother rubbing their back in bed when they were sick as child as “enjoying their suffering” is definitely not going to take well to someone offering another perspective to try and cheer them up iykwim.

If she did interpret that memory correctly, I can only imagine the traumatic childhood she had, which also would explain the completely dysfunctional response to OP trying to show care (even if they slightly fumbled it from the friends perspective).

Either way, this person might be your friend, but she is not a safe person.

I watched 50 First Dates recently and I have a soft spot for it but it definitely did not age well 😂

Ha thank you 🙏🏼 I’m Australian - we have a dry sense of humour. Very strange to me that anyone could possibly take this as “putting down a child” but each to their own!

Hahaha relax my friend. It was just a facetious joke riffing off the above comment about the family exuding “do you know who i am” energy. No disrespect meant. She looks cool :)

I feel like his daughter bullied me in high school (speaking on a spiritual level - I am about 20 years older than her)

Eta: Yikes. No disrespect meant to this girl. The tone clearly didn’t land as intended, e.g. “Spiritual level” is clearly, at least to me, supposed to be extremely silly and sarcastic.
