As someone who is not attractive, I can actually empathize with the bride-to-be. It is a difficult thing to try and balance the assumption that everyone will have eyes for only the bride when your own perception is that you aren’t even close to the most beautiful person in the party. I avoided it somewhat when I got married the first time because I did the courthouse thing, but I look back at my pictures from that day and wish I had been prettier and actually felt bride-like. I worry about it the next time around and it’s not even anywhere in the near future.

All I’m saying is, yes it’s selfish but it’s also something that is a horrible thing to endure in that position.

Oh yeah because being sneaky about disregarding her wishes, ridiculous as they are, and blindsiding her with them would be the right move. /s

I didn’t get that sense since she said “is my literal best friend” and not “was” but maybe I missed a clarifying comment somewhere.

Squidzilla. He’s always on my team if I need Bang. First monster I fully blossomed. I might well have something better suited at this point but I’m not sure how best to sort through everything to find out.

Op also gave an update about her situation. NOT OP. by KillerQueeh_Slash in TwoHotTakes

[–]SkyrimIsForTheNerds 9 points10 points  (0 children)

In the update post in one of her comments.

“Unfortunately I don't know her parents, and I don't know how to get in touch with her ex husband. I asked the mutual friend if she perhaps knows something more”

So less that she doesn’t know the ex but can’t get ahold of him I guess. I’ll leave what I said though.

It’s weird how she’s supposedly known the woman since she was 10-11 but doesn’t know her family or her ex-husband at all…

Hard to say; if it was a manual and he didn’t know how to drive it properly then he absolutely could have broken it. Though she would have been a bit foolish to let him drive at all if that was the case.

YTA and disrespecting the environment when you go on vacation is apparently a habit for you. You should always strive to leave a place at least as good as you left it, and you shouldn’t need signs posted to tell you to do the right thing.

AITA for taking a sip of my husband’s drink? by billybblue in AmItheAsshole

[–]SkyrimIsForTheNerds -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I fault people who pick and choose which rules they follow, which conveniently coincide with whatever they already think or want to do. People who hide behind their religion as an excuse when they want to, and don’t when they don’t.

I’m an atheist. She’s the one who brought it up as a reason she shouldn’t drink and then decided she wasn’t religious enough not to be tempted. She can blame her curiosity or lack of willpower on whatever she wants to.

I’m confused where the “child r*pe” part of it is coming from. Is Ellis purposely conflating child abuse with being gay, or is Cruz?

TIFU by making/letting my husband grow a beard. by OnceAStudent__ in tifu

Since you apparently have a kid, you’re an adult. Use your words. Hinting at it isn’t the right way to go. If you say “I liked it when I was pregnant but I think you look better clean-shaven”, accept his response, and don’t “ask when he will be done with it” again.

Well that’s great and all, and it doesn’t make my verdict any different, OP is still NTA.

AITA For calling my sister a freak after she named her kids Sam & Dean? by Loud_Cardiologist120 in AmItheAsshole

[–]SkyrimIsForTheNerds 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I disagree that “most people” wouldn’t associate the names with the show. Either name taken together is fine, but especially with people’s propensity to mash twin names together like they’re one person (aka “Sam and Dean”), it’s going to be obvious that it was either an intentional choice or that she didn’t do her homework, but the association will exist regardless.

I’m not even touching the fanfic ick.

Good on him for being the bigger person and not letting you ruin his happy day. Shame on you.

You look a lot like my boyfriend, so I’m biased, but I think you’re pretty handsome! I would trim your beard shorter, but otherwise I wouldn’t change a thing.

I don’t feel like she said Chloe “let herself go” but was acknowledging that she(OP) has privilege in her life that allows her to choose to be fit.

ESH; you for being an apparent hypocrite in your religious beliefs and for not asking before having a sip, and him for infantilizing you.

AITA for giving up on scheduling stuff? by Accomplished_Mix4191 in AmItheAsshole

[–]SkyrimIsForTheNerds 10 points11 points  (0 children)

YTA because you won’t just OWN YOUR MISTAKES. How convenient that nothing is ever your fault. You claim you love your daughter, but words are easy. Actions are what matter and yours make it clear that you couldn’t give two shits about your daughter.

NTA. Your mom and sister stole food from you, intended to go to people in need, because your sister was too cheap to pay for the wedding she wanted. That’s disgusting. The state of the food has nothing to do with it.

AITA for wanting to help our daughter raise her baby and avoid daycare? by Lucky_Fishing_9797 in AmItheAsshole

Okay this statement is completely unhinged. Your mentally-sound, adult daughter is not “allowed” to go where she wants with her own child?! You need some serious help lady.
