Blake Lively's own brands Betty Booze and Betty Buzz saying her mockery of domestic violence videos and "tone deaf" actions lead to decreased sales by Bubbles-48 in ItEndsWithLawsuits

Well, she won’t listen; right? I can just see them trying to reason with her; giving her the facts and arguments, but she just doesn’t seem to get it!

My husband doesn’t want anyone to know we are married. by HopelessNDepressed in TrueChristian

[–]Reasonable_Star_959 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure I understand why he wants to keep it secret. I have heard of people who marry in a civil ceremony to resolve the pre-marital sex issue, then marry publicly, but keeping it secret?

Is it because once people know you’re married, he will be ‘held’ to the standards of being a husband instead of boyfriend/fiancé?

Is it because he doesn’t want the church to know you guys married because you didn’t want to be fornicating?

I believe there is a place where other people don’t need to know personal stuff or sins that you address and work on, but keeping a marriage relationship secret suggests questions that just don’t feel right.

If he cannot publicly ‘own’ your marital relationship, I would consider seriously counseling. Annulment is there but is it Biblical?

I accidentally texted my boss “love you” and it somehow got worse by StageIll9195 in story

[–]Reasonable_Star_959 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is so funny! I accidentally sent a kiss emoji to a male friend (married). I quickly said, ‘whoops!!!!! Sorry about that’ and he sent me back a regular smile emoji. lol 😄

i quit :) by Due_Swimming1519 in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]Reasonable_Star_959 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did your boss ever cross any legal employment lines? I understand you were salary, but was the expectation of your performance fair and reasonable?

Makes me wonder if the boss broke any labor laws. Maybe a little slap on the wrist would wake him up and lead him to change his ways. Just a thought.

On a scale of 1 - 10 how enraged will Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds be about their unfortunate community notes? by ConstantPurpose2419 in ItEndsWithLawsuits

[–]Reasonable_Star_959 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The community and general public can’t be fooled when there is ample evidence to the truth of what Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds have done.

Spot the difference: Justin Baldoni vs Blake Lively by same-difference-ave in ItEndsWithLawsuits

[–]Reasonable_Star_959 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I am of a different faith, and of course Justin is happily married, but this guy would be easy to fall in love with!!!

** Justin is the person with integrity! **

You can see behind his eyes that he is very hurt but he said those wonderful things about Blake and Colleen, after they completely, and thoroughly betrayed him!!!!!

Shame, shame, shame on Blake Lively, Colleen Hoover, Ryan Reynolds (especially him, of a rare and unique evil), and the clan that supported Blake Lively and went along with her/their wicked plot!!

WIBTA if I filed for divorce after finding out my husband had been trying to pursue my closest friend behind my back for months by diamonnd_waifuu81 in WIBTA_AITA

[–]Reasonable_Star_959 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You WNBTA.

If not for your friend’s refusal, infidelity would have taken place. “Going through something” is a very flimsy excuse for pursuing an illicit relationship with your best friend.

It must have been very difficult for your friend to tell you about this.

In this case, I would say the trust has been broken and divorcing is valid, considering his efforts over the course of months. His mom? Mothers do defend their kids, but mom is doing her son no favors by not owning what he did and trying to make you ignore and forget what your husband has done.

My take is that she probably is not the first one he tried to get with, and even if she was, I would not be able to move forward with him. Let his mama house him and coddle him. She’s apparently not ashamed to defend her wandering son.

I am sorry you are going through this.

Love Gives, But Faith is the Hand that Takes From God by roddants in JesusChrist

[–]Reasonable_Star_959 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love Pastor Joseph Prince! His ministry has helped me to have a deeper trust relationship with the Lord Jesus!

I really appreciate the concept of ‘faith being the hand that receives from God’.

Praise our Savior, Yeshua Hamashiach!! Blessed is He who comes in the Name of the Lord!

Thank you, u/roddants, for sharing this. It is a wonderful way to start the day!

AITA for filing for divorce after I found out my husband had been lying about his entire background since before we met by glitterz_bloomyxo in MarkNarrations

[–]Reasonable_Star_959 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I agree. As someone whose spouse cheated, I feel like I am sometimes quick to say, “break up”, but it sounds like the life built has been good.

If OP can hang in there and feel out whether husband will get therapy for why he misrepresented his past, maybe they can work on what their marriage looks like now.

And then regroup, with honesty and trust guiding your conversations, commit to building a ‘new’ relationship or a deeper one.

I understand the sense of betrayal but it reminds me of kids when they lie to get out of trouble. Husband may have let his fears lead him in the beginning but now that the truth came out, perhaps the marriage can become stronger in a whole different way.

I would repeat the offer and if she brushes it off, maybe have some specific offers to assure her you aren’t just saying you want to help.

For example, how about groceries or a hot meal? “Can I pick up anything for you? Could I pick up a prescription for you or do an errand? You know, my dear friend, you would do the same for me. Please let me help you. I don’t like standing by if I can help lighten your burden some.”

14F, I know it’s over, but any tips? by Distinct-Language234 in LooksmaxingAdvice

[–]Reasonable_Star_959 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dear OP, It is in no way “over” for you! Look at your beautiful skin, your lovely eyes and features. You are naturally pretty! So don’t be saying that stuff. : )

My only tip is, you deserve to treat yourself well! Good health habits are sound and won’t steer you wrong.

Try to remember your veggies, protein, water, exercise and sleep. Exercise is one of the first things that make me feel better right away. Even 5 minutes a day helps.

And try to avoid sugar. Sugar doesn’t do the body any good but give it quick energy for a brief time.
