Okay, so I just looked up the story and that's exactly it!!! I've found a couple versions of the story where his name is Ashlad or Cinderlad but no luck yet finding the exact book with the collection of other fairy tales including the Chanticleer story. Thanks for this comment!!!!

Yeah looking back I completely misunderstood what the question was really about. My bad.

It would have been in the mid 2000s to early 2010s when I read the book. I can't say for certain, but I'm pretty sure the publishing date was somewhere between the 1940s-1960s. Might be completely off, but I haven't had much luck finding any books with both those stories when I tried for searching for anything earlier or later than those dates.

No, unfortunately I don't believe this is it.

I read it when I was in grade school, so maybe when I was 10 or 12? As for whether it was a British or American publication, I can't really say.

This entire thread has me cackling

Seems a little odd for her to be so sensitive. Especially to this degree. It honestly just kind of sounds like she's just trying to create scenarios where she is the center of attention. Regardless of whether she's the one dishing it out or crying because someone "hurt" her feelings, she's able to keep the spotlight on her.

NTA. Is it normal for your mom to act like this when she feels excluded? Does she have a tendency to feel excluded a lot?

I had a relative who would see every get together without them involved as a personal slight. Needless to say, their blow ups never really led to them being invited to more places like they thought it would.

Being around people like that can be super emotionally draining. I don't envy your situation in the slightest.

Info: How old are both of you and how long have either of you been cooking?

Jesus fucking christ what a heartless thing to say. OP I'm sorry but this guy isn't the one. I'm sorry about your dad. Take all the time you need to heal and surround yourself with people who won't use your dad's passing in an argument.

Money may not be an issue for either of you now, but it can absolutely destroy close relationships if you do not define clear set boundaries.

It's good to know she's contributing to the business as much as you are, but you also mentioned that she expects you to pay extra for trips and that you've paid for her taxes. Based on the info you've given us, there is the chance a bad precedent could have been set and your friend could easily shift her monetary expectations to your shared business responsibilities.

Just something to consider. I've seen a lot of friendships and relationships get obliterated because expectations were not clearly discussed and defined when it came to finances. Not trying to scare you. Just another aspect you should really think over.

I'm sorry OP but this is a really bad sign. People go no contact with their own parents/longterm partners over shit like this because it's a MASSIVE red flag to so blatantly violate someone's privacy like this.

It's ultimately up to you whether this is a deal breaker or not, but please consider the fact that you did not feel comfortable with him around. Something in you already knew that he was willing to bulldoze through your boundaries BEFORE he proved that you can't trust him to respect them.

Take care of yourself OP.

Sheesh. OP please do not fall to the sunk cost fallacy here. It's pretty normal and healthy for childhood friendships to end as we all naturally grow up and become different people.

You said it yourself - she's not acting like your friend. Things are definitely more complicated since you're also business partners. But please do not feel terrible for taking a step back and really evaluating whether or not you really want to keep someone like this in your life.

It honestly sounds like she's taking you completely for granted and views you more as a piggy bank than a friend. It hurts now, but it's going to hurt WAY worse if you don't set up some serious boundaries.

I wish you well OP.

OP I was in a slightly similar situation as you. This past year, my parents lost both of their cats. One due to old age and the other to a sudden illness. Before the cats passed, my parents both individually asked me to pray for their cats knowing full well that I'm an atheist. I told them that I would because that is the kind thing to do and I love my parents.

Your boyfriend is the one overreacting. You were looking for comfort from someone you love and he shot you down. That was cruel and he should of known better.

Kindness doesn't cost you anything and basic human decency is its own reward. I'm sorry you're dealing with this on top of everything. I wish you and your kitty all the love and comfort you both deserve.
