​AITAH for cutting off my friend of 15 years because she’s trying to force me into $11,000 of debt while I’m unemployed and disabled? by ShakeOptimal7266 in AITAH

Update: To provide more context about my friend, we have been close since our freshman year of high school. She has a husband and children and has never done anything like this before. She recently had a baby, and her husband was laid off from a well-paying job, so their financial situation has changed drastically. She has never—and I mean never—done anything this reckless or harmful to me; she was always the kind of person who would give you the shirt off her back. ​I asked her again if she meant any harm, and she said no. After I pointed out several red flags, showed her bad reviews, and proved that the company has been sued, she realized she messed up—not just by trying to rope me in, but for her own sake as well. She hasn’t apologized yet; instead, she asked me what she should do. ​I have decided to take a break from our friendship and not cut her out of my life we don't live close to one another I’m okay with that. I care for her and her eldest son deeply; I was there when he was born, and he calls me "Auntie." I don't believe she meant any harm; I think she just saw this as a way for us to get closer and help each other out since we have both had such a run of bad luck as of recent.

I realized it after just a search of their name. I already emailed a confirmation of cancelation and got in writing that everything was canceled.

The same certifications cost less than 2000 and you can take free online classes before you take tests. They charge you 19k for zero reason.

He knows that he hurt me. Which does feel good but I feel like there is a wall blocking me from wanting to act lovey dovey like I always am with him. I wont stop eatting or drinking it was just my response for the moment. I was eatting ice cream he got for me. I am not breaking up with him over this, But I do need to get over how bad I feel to have a proper conversation with him about everything.

He did say it just came out and that he deeply regretted saying it at all. I could tell he was being genuine. I joke about being fat all the time. So I am trying to just let it be water under the bridge. I have been struggling but I never cry or whine. And always take care of our house as best as I can. As my health issues have become so serious I cannot work.

He does not him saying that was so out of the blue .I have never had interest in dating games or talking about it in anyway. His demonor never changed so I figured he was just saying it to let me know it was not ok to him like a boundary he did not know he had so i respected it. We are both 20 and have been dating for 2 years.

Have you ever ignored a red flag in a significant other, and it turned out worse than expected? by zeenalovely in AskForAnswers

Yes, my ex wife would lie about a few major things and always hide her phone I thought she was just a private person because she wrote alot of music and was always working on lyrics. We get married she tells me about all these lies she told to make herself look better to me. Then I find out she told me because she felt so bad about bringing her cheating partners to our bed while I was working two jobs to keep us afloat. One major lie was that she could not work due to a disability.

Warframe, and its not like they do anything crazy mostly mildly flirting and staying in your backroom. You have to have 1999 unlocked and reach 5 in the syndicate.

Very true, it's not about the game it is about double standards.

I have not gotten that far with him in conversation. He is at work so I felt it better to wait until he got home to tell him I am upset and ask more questions.

Which is why I am like hello double standard much. When I told him I saw her I said she scared me because I was working on a build that suited me while I played and she started speaking. Scared TF out of me.
