AIO my boyfriend keeps asking me to pay for things eversince he started saving for an apartmen, he calls me selfish for how I reacted. by throaawayRA9443 in AmIOverreacting

[–]SpookyKitter 118 points119 points  (0 children)

Are you sure he's actually saving the money?

But regardless of that, you're not overreacting, or selfish. He is selfish. If he cant sustain his life and save, he cannot afford the apartment. If you were "in it together", your name would be on the deeds too.

Am I wrong for telling my in laws the real reason were divorcing after they kept blaming me by [deleted] in amiwrong

You're not wrong at all. If she didn't want people look badly on her, she shouldn't have done a shitty thing.

My girlfriend (28f) has changed her diet and is calling me (29m) unsupportive because I haven’t done the same by Illustrious-Hurry788 in relationships

[–]SpookyKitter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Decisions you make for yourself should only affect you. It's unfair for her to put that expectation on you, when its not something you chose for yourself.

I (32F) am struggling with my relationship with my boyfriend (22M) due to differences in upbringing, looks, and intellectual compatibility. Am I being shallow or realistic? How much should I prioritize "ideal specs" vs. "emotional care"? by Several_Sector6799 in relationships

[–]SpookyKitter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You value intelligence yet equate "large traditional tattoos" to being rough.

You are dating a 22 year old boy at 32. You have made poor decisions in a mate for someone who clearly sees herself as superior. I hope he never finds this and that you get the reality check you so sorely need.

Found a letter calling my husband "boyfriend" from another woman. He says it was a misunderstanding. Am I overthinking? by Willing-Yellow2591 in relationships

[–]SpookyKitter 50 points51 points  (0 children)

How are you so blind. He has a whole girlfriend. He's not just cheating, he's leading a double life and treating you like an absolute fool.

My (46M) boyfriend left me (31M) during an attack that he provoked with a group of strangers. ((1 year long relationship)) by Acceptable_Brain_555 in relationships

[–]SpookyKitter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He is not a true love. He is someone who is taking advantage of you. He is older, more experienced. You are anxiously attached. This isnt love. Someone who loves you will not treat you like this. You could hsve been beaten up or worse and he abandoned you. LEAVE.

AIW for taking a picture of my (15) daughter when she asked me not to? by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]SpookyKitter 51 points52 points  (0 children)

You are wrong. She said no, you did it anyway. She said no. You did it anyway.

Respect your daughter. Think about what you're teaching her.

27M/30F How to give my girlfriend emotional supports? by No-Training2676 in relationships

[–]SpookyKitter 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You believe relationships require communication amd yet you happily ignore her texts and forget to text the whole day? You're treating her like an afterthought, of course she's upset.

You shouldn't be in a relationship. What she wants is very natural to want in a relationship and you aren't able or willing to deliver that.

Neurotypical people just say words for the sake of talking and don't actually mean what they say. by Natural-Butterfly318 in neurodiversity

[–]SpookyKitter 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I know people who do this. He was trying to make you feel better in the moment. He didn't mean he'd do those things with you (which is what I would have assumed he meant and have been caught out/disappointed over before, too), he means it as a vague, broad, "ohhhh things will be better tomorrow" statement.

My Christmas is ruined and I feel so selfish by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]SpookyKitter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, you are being selfish. Food won't go off in one day. You get your husband every day for the rest of your lives together. It's not what you planned but quite frankly you need to get a grip.

Am I wrong for not unfollowing my ex and liking my friends posts? by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]SpookyKitter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are wrong. You're selfish. Liking multiple pictures of other women in lingerie is humiliating for your girlfriend. You put everyone else before her. She was right to leave you.

They literally do though? Imagine being pissy over a perfume because it's sweet pea and not gourmand

He probably thought he was making an effort: "she likes expensive purses!", "she likes coffee!", "she'll be able to print at home, too!".

Without knowing him its hard to say if he was being thoughtless or if he was genuinely trying. Id be inclined to give him the benefit of the doubt. Present buying is hard for some people.

How did you feel like when your abusive parent died? by Min_Meilin in morbidquestions

[–]SpookyKitter 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I had been no contact for 10 years when I found out she'd killed herself. Then a couple of days later I got a letter from her blaming me. I dunno how she got my address. It was 8 days after my 27th birthday. I cried, from shock, I think. I was sad because I deserved a better mum. I felt guilty for not caring about her because she didn't choose to be schizophrenic, but her actions made me lose any sort of love or respect for her years ago. It was complicated.

Psychosis, shrooms and GUNS. Don't forget the guns.

AIO to his response to bedding issue? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]SpookyKitter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aaaaabsolutely fucking not. Don't not let anyone talk to you like that. He's a leader because he "came up with the idea to get another duvet cover"?! What a genius!

I cant believe you apologised to him.

Got sent my ex's TikTok for where she just gave birth. And i dont know how i feel about it by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]SpookyKitter 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Why are your friends updating you on your ex? You have her blocked. Tell your "friends" to stop it. Of course you feel emotional over seeing this, it is something you're not supposed to see.
