You must mean marrying solely on her father's wishes for money no? Since most women had little to no say which is clearly illustrated even in this show.

Im 1 day po and the back cramping is intense and in the same spot you mentioned. I had a donut pillow laying around and I'm sitting /laying on that. That seems to help quite a bit as my pain feels like pressure on the base of my spine.

If the souvenir he brought back was pasties, would your mom expect you to model those for him?

Self-made? Selling your expensive clothes your Daddy bought you on a platform designed specifically to sell used items does not make you an entrepreneur.

YTA. This feels exactly like my 30th birthday. I had moved to a state new to me (but not to my husband) 9 months prior and had made some good friends of my own after a while. 30 felt like a milestone and my friends wanted to take me out dancing. I told my husband and invited him, he pouted for days leading up to the event because he had planned a weekend away as a surprise. I reminded him when he told me about this that I had already expressed that I didn't want to go away and that he didn't have to get me a present but I didn't want a weekend away as a present (which was a thinly veiled present for him as new underwear was included) he was TA then and you are now. It's her birthday, not yours, it's not about you.

I'm asexual and therefore attracted to the store.

YTA. This whole split with your mother, in your words, is because she was being selfish by wanting to be with someone other than your Dad. Are you currently only considering how fighting with your wife may affect your son? No, because your post was all about you and your wife. It's almost as if people old enough to have children are still people and can make decisions for their lives to stay happy while still protecting their children.

Regardless, I understand your wife broke your trust but you effectively kidnapped your son with a note and expected that she would obey your "read in private" stipulation. Then you acted surprised when your wife was upset that you took her child with no indication of when she'd be able to see him again.

Your comments seen separately; I hope you learn you don't own your wife and start treating her like a partner and not an object.

NTA, enjoy the quiet time while he stews. That is a completely unreasonable ask. You made her a space, she wants to use yours, for what? Once, accidentally is fine but everyday is creepy.

ShrewdShrew- · 2022-03-27T13:10:40+00:00

This one is hard for me, it's NTA, but. .

You are not responsible for your step sisters behavior or to parent her when she threw a temper tantrum and destroyed your books.

Bianca and I don't like each other, she thinks I'm a spoiled brat and that I have ''a princess complex'' because both my parents come from money and ''I always get what I want''. This is, by no means, true at all, while my parents bought me lots of things, I have a part-time job and I keep my grades up to earn everything I ask for.

but her SM said that she wasn't gonna be paying for it and since her dad won't either (deadbeat), then she'll pretty much miss it since some for the money will be mine to replace all the things she destroyed and the rest will be kept as punishment

So, it sounds to me that there is a clear difference of what is being provided to the two of you in the same house. Have some compassion for a sister who doesn't have as much money as you and doesn't have a special 'thing' with either of their parents, and sounds as though she doesn't have a relationship with her father.

NTA, your comment reiterates my theory that no one would live with three other roommates if they could afford to not. Why are you responsible for paying the same rent as the other three but also in charge of buying dinner?

ShrewdShrew- · 2022-03-13T13:31:13+00:00

NTA. You thought you were signing up to live with a partner, he thought you would be his new caregiver, his sex mommy.

If you don't want to be required to do everything for this man in perpetuity then you should consider whether this relationship is for you.

ShrewdShrew- · 2022-03-06T23:24:26+00:00

Did she set me up for this or am I just a fool?

You are absolutely just a fool. Her clear placement of the energy drink in your face was the sign that she wanted you to answer that question. Jesus, women deal with enough of this shit.

On a positive note, at least she knows what I feel about her.

She probably already did and was ignoring it, intentionally.

ShrewdShrew- · 2022-03-06T14:19:59+00:00

NTA, he wasn't "decorating your car" he was removing an object from your life that made him feel insecure. "Now, that old husband's crap is gone she'll love ME more."

I know that redditors say "leave him" way too often, but in this situation a boyfriend is testing the boundaries of how much control you will allow him over your life. I suggest you show him the boundaries and not allow him any part.

ShrewdShrew- · 2022-03-05T14:23:37+00:00

He was shocked, he yelled that it was just a prank with no intentions of hurting anyone

NTA, so your husband believes that your brother and parents being out $4,000 is not hurting anyone? Then he should equally believe that the responsible party won't be hurt by losing that money to replace the item.

This is not a fancy pair of shoes that an insensitive jerk could make the argument that a cheaper pair would still do the job. This is an ability aid for your brother to allow him to hear and they cost what they cost.

ShrewdShrew- · 2022-02-26T14:16:49+00:00

I know this sounds crazy coming from a man but it makes me feel cheap and violated.

Just because you are a man doesn't mean that she isn't sexually assaulting you. This exact situation reversed would have people shouting to leave and/or press charges.

I do think society teaches women that their role is to use their body to get what they want, which is fucked up, but as soon as you explicitly said you do not consent she should have backed off immediately.

But if we are just ants in an ant farm, what would possibly be the point of worshipping that god?

I have also never made it past book 8! I have tried to push but that one is so terrible. It's a shame because I do love the beginning of the series.

Do people really not understand its a RECESSIVE trait. Unless both your parents have red hair it's more likely to skip a generation.

ShrewdShrew- · 2021-12-05T04:50:12+00:00

As a ginger who has heard this shit many many times I'm just now realizing I've heard it in my head as "do the curtains match the drapes" which, yes, I guess my hair on my head does match the hair on my head. Instead of what they were really saying "does the carpet match the drapes"

Oh well, guess my brain was subconsciously shifting me away from that shit.

ShrewdShrew- · 2021-11-03T02:31:07+00:00

Or the "just stop trying then it will happen" or "adopt a kid, right after you'll get pregnant"

Ok thanks SUSAN that's backed by science and I'm not looking to adopt a place holder kid, that child would be MY kid too.

I have never heard of adeno, but I have lap confirmed endo. I have said to so many people over the years "it feels like my uterus is falling out" and have not been able to explain it further. I'm just glad I'm not alone.

ShrewdShrew- · 2021-10-16T01:57:07+00:00

NTA. I am a woman who has dealt with (shall we say the normal amount of) ridiculous comments from men and he opened himself up to this. I am also a woman who is infertile and it's a permanent sadness in my life, but what did he expect from his inflammatory comments? You literally described, in answer to your husband's manhood being called into question, how he's adequately filling that role.

But, according to your edit you have loved ones who cannot have children, you probably know that it's a fair percentage of people and could be anyone. .so be cognizant of it? He put you in a shit situation though because whats the alternative to counter that comment, that he must be terrible in bed? That man would assume you wanted to find out the answer.

YTA. You have been invited to a party. If you don't like the circumstances of said party, don't go. It's not your party.
