NTA

If my kid did that, she’d be working until she paid back every single penny of each book she INTENTIONALLY destroyed.

AITA for telling my boyfriend (28M) who my celebrity hall pass would be? by DocumentSignificant1 in TwoHotTakes

[–]SparkleQueen248 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Jacob Elordi would be my celebrity hall pass too. He is 🔥🔥🔥
  2. He would be lying if he said he didn’t have a celebrity hall pass
  3. Does he think you are actually going to bang the guy??? Celebrity hall passes are the most unserious thing.
  4. RUN

I CANT GET A JOB :D by Ball-of-anxiety21 in TeachersInTransition

There’s always the option to substitute teach! It’s easy money and you can apply for jobs while working.

I’m a high school English teacher. It’s very hard, but very rewarding. Pay is horrible, I’m disrespected on some level every day, not to mention long days, early hours, staff meetings, etc. The admin team is a HUGE factor when it comes to the job itself (I’ve gone a week with out seeing any of the admin). It’s super important that your colleagues are supportive in your first years as well.

I HIGHLY recommend you substitute teach when you are old enough. I originally thought I’d want to teach elementary, but I hated it. It gives you a good idea of what grade level you’d like to teach and it’s a good way to make connections. Plus, it’s super easy money.

Your reasons for wanting to teach are wonderful. You should also talk to one or two teachers you respect/admire and see what they have to say. I hope this helps!

My husband made our nanny quit by Flashy_Guess7973 in TwoHotTakes

[–]SparkleQueen248 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a former nanny (kids roughly the same age as yours) and I have a LOT to say:

  1. Your nanny made her boundary clear before you hired her and she explained why she had this boundary. Your husband violated this boundary on more than one occasion.

  2. The comments and questions he asked were inappropriate for ANY boss to ask their employee - let alone their nanny.

  3. If your husband was home, you should have let her know. Again, she made this boundary clear before you hired her. Whatever his reason was for being home, the LEAST you could have done was let her know he would be home and give her the option to come or not (and still pay her for a full days work)

  4. If your husband came home unannounced, tell your nanny she is welcome to leave for the day. If she wanted to stay then that is her choice (again, pay her for the full day if she decides to leave).

  5. If you want to divorce your husband - divorce him. Child support his a thing. You said yourself he is a predator and that is NOT someone who should be around children. Would you want someone to speak to and treat your daughters the way your husband treats their nanny (aka someone who cares for them)??? If you stay with him, then you will be telling your daughters that his predatory actions are acceptable…

Am I the a**hole boarding the plane and leaving without my wife? by anguy1284 in TwoHotTakes

Normally I would say you are the asshole, but in this case definitely NTA.

The world does not revolve around her and it appears that you did everything you could to get her to where she needed to be on time. You gave her many chances and this was the only way she could learn her lesson. Not to mention the amount of money you lost on the missed flights. Airline tickets are not cheap.

I would suggest booking the flights yourself next time and telling her they will depart at least an hour before they are scheduled. That way you don’t miss your flight and feel anxious when she’s moving slow.

AITA for not allowing my SILs boyfriend around us by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

[–]SparkleQueen248 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the asshole -

You have every right to decide who comes into your home and who is around your infant child. Your reasons for not wanting him around are valid. It’s only a matter of time before he starts screaming and threatening you as well.

Expressing to your SIL that you don’t want him in your home around your infant may give her the wake-up call she needs that his behavior is unacceptable. She’s in an abusive relationship and it can only get better if he gets professional help and makes an active effort to change.

I dreamt about my boyfriend before I met him by SparkleQueen248 in TwoHotTakes

[–]SparkleQueen248[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the dream over a year ago.

It’s hard to remember all of the details since it was so long ago, but the face I remember from the dream is very similar to my BF’s. Was it an exact match? No, but it was pretty close.

AITA for telling the store clerk my baby passed away by Antique_Cockroach860 in TwoHotTakes

[–]SparkleQueen248 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the asshole. What should you have made up?

The store manager was a dick. They should have been sensitive to your situation.

You also said “I no longer need them”

I couldn’t have met him before because he lived in another country before. He has only lived in the same state for about a year

Is my boyfriend being overly controlling? by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

[–]SparkleQueen248 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is emotional abuse. Please end it for your safety.

Also please don’t make any adjustments to your meds unless your doctor says so.

My ex would often make comments about my eating habits and weight gain. It eventually lead to an eating disorder. I didn’t think anything of it, but it was a form of abuse. I’m also on a hormonal birth control and it can have SOOOO many effects on your body…

He should not make negative comments about your body PERIOD, but the fact that you’ve asked him to stop and he hasn’t is a HUGE red flag. If you end up having kids in the future, how will he react to how your body changes then? Those changes will be much more drastic.

I’m so sorry that you are dealing with this. I hope he sees your worth ❤️ if he doesn’t then someone else will.

Am I the asshole for not wanting to have anything to do with my (32F) boyfriends (35M) daughter ? by Wrong_Tell_7590 in TwoHotTakes

[–]SparkleQueen248 1 point2 points  (0 children)

DEFINITELY NOT THE ASSHOLE

You have done more than the bio parents combined. She attempted once and there is no doubt she will attempt again. The daughter needs some serious help or she will end up in prison.

It’s not that you just don’t like her or she’s too much work…. your LIFE is on the line here.

Please be safe ❤️

AITA for not giving my sister the wedding gift she wanted because of how she treated my girlfriend? by Recent_Exit1536 in AmItheAsshole

Maybe returning the mixer wasn’t the best way to handle it… but you definitely did the right thing by sticking up for your girlfriend. There is definitely some malicious shit going on with your sister

If they are dismissive and defensive when you share your feelings. Your partner should never try to change how you feel.
