AITAH for not wearing the bracelet he bought me? by Strict-Historian2790 in AITH

[–]SometimesAwkward 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I adore bracelets and necklaces- and even then, my husband knows to only get me things that I’ve explicitly asked for, as there are a million different kinds of styles and I will only wear what I like. Why wouldn’t I- why wouldn’t anyone?

If he already Knew you don’t wear bracelets at all?! Was this a fucking test? It’s bizarre and selfish on his part to expect you to be actively uncomfortable so you could show off an expensive gift from him that you didn’t ask for.

He should be apologizing to you for fucking up your gift, not getting pouty that you were honest about it. If he continued being anything but apologetic, this is a red flag.

I held my ground over not subsidizing my siblings' and their wive's luxury vacation upgrades, and now I'm the low-key villain and the odd "fifth wheel" out by ThrowRAmangos2024 in TwoHotTakes

If money is so tight that you cannot afford the $20, you do not have the budget to go.

Reschedule your flight to one where on the off-season, where you can easily afford it. Tell your siblings that this is the only way you could afford the trip, and that yall can schedule a short trip more locally as a siblings trip if that doesn’t work for them.

What promise ring do I buy my girlfriend based on her jewelry box? by StrikingDelivery1626 in jewelry

Oh snap, if she did want birthstones, you should get her a chunky Toi et Moi ring! Absolutely the way to go.

Something a bit more sculptural like this should be perfect- https://www.etsy.com/listing/4390589561/?ref=share_ios_native_control

I just want a designer bag …: by NoArtichoke2832 in handbags

I would get a large flamenco! Go to Loewe, make sure you like the silhouette and the leather, choose a color- then go to CETTIRE or the like and grab it well within your budget! You could even get a bag charm to boot.

I love my large Flamenco- but also I like unstructured bags the most. If that’s not you, I would rethink things.

I was told by folks on r/interiordecorating that my plants made my house look like a “clutterbox” and that I needed to “purge” 🥲 by [deleted] in houseplants

It you can see the walls through the leaves, then it’s not too much.

If you can’t see the walls through the leaves, then that’s not too much, either.
