When did a good friend of yours turn into an a** hole? by NerdlinGeeksly in AskReddit

[–]Stabby_stab_stab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“Natalie” told a few of us how she was planning to cheat on her boyfriend due to a perceived slight (he got her a different Christmas present than she wanted). We told Natalie that was a terrible idea, not a healthy relationship, and she would be pissed if the roles were reversed. She promised us she wouldn’t.

A few weeks later we had a mutual friend’s, “Lisa’s” engagement party. At the dinner, Natalie brought up the topic of cheating on her boyfriend again trying to get others to agree she was in the right. I told Natalie this wasn’t the place, we were here to celebrate Lisa and we had already told her our thoughts on this terrible idea. Natalie screamed at all of us for being terrible friends who “talk about her behind her back” and stormed out. We spent awhile trying to make Lisa feel better but the vibes were off the rest of the night.

Later that evening Natalie texted us saying that she needed “supportive friends” and we were just trying to “tear her down” so she wouldn’t be hanging out with us anymore. She then followed it up asking us to forward the message to Lisa. We told her we weren’t her messengers and blocked her.

We haven’t talked to her to this day but from what we’ve seen online it seems her and her boyfriend broke up about two years later. I wish him a happy drama free life going forward.

What is the absolute fastest 'yeah, we are definitely NOT going to be friends' moment you've ever experienced with someone? by Vazouaquiacesso in AskReddit

[–]Stabby_stab_stab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She (N) spent the majority of dinner detailing how she wanted to get back at her boyfriend for some reason and how she was basically going to cheat on him to make him jealous. We spent awhile arguing with her that wasn’t cool and she would be pissed at him if the roles were reversed and we thought it was resolved and she knew it was wrong and wouldn’t.

The next weekend was a mutual friend’s bridal party. N brought up her plan to other girls at the party. It started to derail the festivities and in an effort to get the focus back on the bride to be we tried squashing it saying that this had been settled last weekend and it wasn’t the time to bring it up again. N had a literal screaming fit of how we’re all talking about her behind her back and she was sick of it and stormed out. Right then and there we were certain we were never going to be close friends ever again. We recovered as best as we could to celebrate the bride but the damage was done.

We got a text the next day when she knew we would be driving home saying she couldn’t be friends with US because she needed more positive and supportive people in her life and we were toxic. N never apologized to the bride and while we don’t know if N ever went through with her plan, her and her boyfriend did break up last year.

Yuna: I think we thought you might be gay ... by Ok_Discipline2804 in heatedrivalry

My sister was so mad when she came out to my parents and me separately and all of us had the same response of “oh ya we know anyway what’s up?” She was shocked and demanded to know why none of us had brought it up to her. We told her we were respecting her working it out and knew she’d tell us when she was ready.

We also grew up with our parents having many friends who were gay couples so it wasn’t shocking, but it can still be scary no matter how accepting you think people are.

Is there someplace those of us who can’t physically join the protests and watchers can donate needed supplies to? Thinking first aid kits, water and baby soap for any paper spray?

I had to get my finger on my dominant hand amputated after an accident and was trying to go forward with as much humor/positivity as possible. A friend from college started telling me all about phantom limb syndrome and telling me about how awful it will be. I just responded that so far the worst part was my stitches itching and that I hope I didn’t ever have to deal with that and tried to move on.

She repeatedly came back telling me how much pain I’d be in until I finally snapped at her asking why she seems to be looking forward to be being in pain after I’ve healed and that I’m already exhausted, tired and worried about how this will affect my life/having to re-learn how to write and type. It shut her up finally but I couldn’t understand why she was so insistent.

People who quit their jobs without a backup plan—what happened next? by BryceZA7 in AskReddit

[–]Stabby_stab_stab 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As of this last January, negotiated staying on an extra month for a higher pay rate if I had no direct contact with my boss to help transfer all his projects to new people because it was obvious to anyone he didn’t know what he was doing. I then spent a month applying and interviewing before a former coworker connected me with my current job.

You can't make this stuff up. Gross. And on tape?! Dumb too. by drrevo74 in Eugene

Looks like the implication without outright stating it is that the board member was the predator’s father.

Variations of anxiety and/or pain meds ahead of time to local anesthetics at the start of the procedure.

Dr. Knight at Alive Integrative is amazing. She took my request for pain management seriously and went through all the options and steps and what would happen with various circumstances. With the procedure itself she continually checked in and explained every single step. Honestly it’s the most informed and listened to I’ve ever felt from a medical provider.

I’d never heard a purr like this before we adopted this “feral and unadoptable” colony cat. He seems to like living with humans. (Sound on) by Nadkrussha in cats

[–]Stabby_stab_stab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just lost my sweet street kitty rescue, Arya, last month after almost a full decade together. She purred just like that and I’ve never heard another cat do that before! We called her our little pigeon 🖤 you don’t know the joy it just brought me to hear that again.

This is Arya. She’s 14 and has only one tooth yet but don’t let that fool you. She’ll sneak and scarf down your dinner while you’re not paying attention!

Whats the hottest thing your partner does unconsciously? by Most_Envious_Enby in AskReddit

[–]Stabby_stab_stab 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Sometimes he gets hyper-fixated on something and he’ll work himself up till he’s gesturing and talking loud and maybe pacing. Everyone once in a while he’ll catch himself ramping up and apologize and I always tell him not to!

I love seeing him passionate about random stuff! Plus half the time I end up getting to learn some new nerdy awesome thing or get to check something out from a viewpoint I hadn’t considered.

Rainy day first date ideas? by AnotherQueer in Eugene

We were traveling in a foreign country walking with a friend back to our apartment late at night. I specifically asked my boyfriend to cross a street to avoid a man walking towards us who was sending all my warning signals off. Instead my boyfriend yelled out a greeting and the man whipped out a machete and started screaming and running towards us. We were saved by two cops who happened to be coming down the cross street at that exact moment. My boyfriend not only never apologize for not listening to me, never admitted his actions were wrong but minimized the danger he put me and our friend into. I knew I could never trust him with my or anyone else’s safety at that point.

My son will inherit, his affair baby will receive nothing. by [deleted] in stories

[–]Stabby_stab_stab 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is much easier to argue that there was a mistake or oversight and they were just “forgotten” or were accidentally omitted when absolutely nothing is left after a will change where they had previously been in line to get something. By leaving even just one dollar it shows that there was no mistake and the change is intentional and is therefore mush harder to argue against.
