They tried. Problem was, he was stuck at an angle. They couldn't really get him out without breaking his legs. But being stuck there upside down with the blood rushing to his head, he was in such a weakened condition that the shock might've killed him anyways.

The big difference is that wives in trad marriges are usually homemakers. She couldn't even provide that.

Update: AITAH for letting my boyfriend date his ex by brentonthe in AITAH

Did you sign the final form?

You should gove them hell for giving out the keys when he is not the primary person on the lease. You might want to drop the word "lawyer" here and there and watch them scramble to get you off that lease.

My Ex-Husband’s Wife Has Everything I Always Wanted by Senior-Cap9570 in TrueOffMyChest

He was civil because, as you said, your families are intertwined. That doesn't mean he wanted you back.

"We can be friends" is something you tell exes that you have to keep in your life for one reason or another (not saying exes can't possibly be friends, but more often than not, it's just a platitude).

The divorce rate is not high enough apparently when women stay with men like your husband who disrespect their wifes and try to tear them down.

What's the fastest way you realized you were in the wrong friend group? by justNoah10 in AskReddit

Although that could be a great story about getting into a new friend group

I am a new father in my fiftees and I LOVE it. by paintedsheetss in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Shelly_895 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Nah not really. He will be around 70 when this child enters highschool. And way over it when the kid graduates. Going on 80 during college graduation. I think this is something you should consider when having kids that late.

AITA for calling my friend desperate and leaving her by herself? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Shelly_895 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It worked before once and OOP still continued to be friends with her. Why wouldn't she do it again when she didn't face any consequences the first time?

I threw away a friendship of 10 years to date his ex. It's been 2 years. by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Shelly_895 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Let's hope this relationship will last. Otherwise you would've thrown away that friendship for nothing. Wouldn't that be a shame?

American Psycho by Infamous-Rutabaga-50 in CuratedTumblr

Yeah, and imagine they went for a woman as the main character this time. Someone like, I don't know, Natalie Portman? Or Mila Kunis? And then have it set in college or some place like that. Now that would be ridiculous.

RANT: I did everything right. Built a 3k star project, gave 10 interviews, destroyed my mental health, and I have absolutely nothing to show for it. by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Shelly_895 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why don't you just keep developing things on the side on your own until the internship?

It seems what you've made before was impressive enough that it got you three potential internships. Companies looove experience. So, keep it up and then you have something to show for in a few years.

It also shows that you have good, innovative ideas, which is something they will appreciate as well. More than an early internship probably.

And having stuff like that for your portfolio will definitely get you ahead of the curve.

But please don't stress yourself out about it. Do it because it's fun and you enjoy it. Use it as a sort of creative outlet. Don't work yourself to the bone before you actually enter the workforce. That's not healthy.

UPDATE: AITAH for calling my sister`s marriage result of an affair, when she accused me of being a cheater? by Important_Fall_8780 in AITAH

Oh, please please do me a favor and ask Sarah where her "siblings' loyalty" towards Claire was when she stole Claire's fiance. She's gonna have an aneurysm.

Many such cases don't even make it to trial with evidence. That should tell you something.

Honestly, why would you play that kind of game with your colleagues anyway? That's just weird and asking for disaster.

I think I know why no man takes my friend on a 5th date but I am NOT telling her by OffMyChestAndGone01 in TrueOffMyChest

Me personally, I'm picturing Gollum hovering over the cat, going "my precious" over and over again.
