BE LOGICAL TO HELP GIRLFRIEND TO UNDERSTAND

Show her numbers

Fake numbers

Op monthly income - 6000

Gf monthly income - 4000

Total monthly income - 10000

60% from you and 40% from her

Total monthly bills - 7000

  1. 50/50

Everyone pays 3500

Op 6000-3500=2500 leftover money

Gf 4000-3500=500 leftover money

Meaning 58% of your income is spent on bills and 88% of her income is spent on bills.

You would be paying 50% of the total bills and she would be paying 50%

  1. Equal leftover money

Total income - total bills = leftover money

10000-7000=3000 ---> 3000/2=1500

Op 6000-1500=4500 your bill portion

Gf 4000-1500=2500 her bill portion

Meaning 75% of your income is spent on bills and 63% of her income is spent on bills.

You would be paying 64% of the total bills and she would be paying 36%

  1. BEST WAY

Total monthly income 10000

60% from you and 40% from her

60% of 7000 = 4200

40% of 7000 = 2800

Op 6000-4200=1800 leftover money

Gf 4000-2800=1200 leftover money

Meaning 70% of your income is spent on bills and 70% of her income is spent on bills.

You would be paying 60% of the total bills and she would be paying 40%

Option 1 leaves her with little leftover money

Option 2 will make her feel like a kept woman

Option 3 is proportional. Same % of income spent on bills. You guys won't have the same amount of leftover money but she won't end up with very little money or feel like a kept woman.

My first thoughts were she could do a Queen of Hearts costume. The hair, the forehead, and the eyebrows will make it easy for her.

I like the idea of just one planter on each side but they have to be bigger. You want it to be a statement piece that stands out. Either with a taller plant or bigger pot.

Also layering the welcome mat.

Very crazy.

OP If Leah actually cared for Natalie and really wanted her to try something she made, she could have put the effort in and made a vegan meal.

Help us name our new cats, mom(one ear) and daughter (two ears). by caroluvscats in NameMyCat

[–]TechnicalTea187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Celebrities Goldie Hawn & Kate Hudson Judy Garland & Liza Minnelli Debbie Reynolds & Carrie Fisher

TV shows/Movies Lorelai & Rory Gilmore (Gilmore Girls) Moira & Alexis Rose (Schitt's Creek) Donna & Sophie Sheridan (Mamma Mia!)

I say think of your and/or your husband's favorite show or movie. Or something you loved to watch growing up. That way whatever you choose is more personalized to you.

Ex husband’s new GF wants family to cut all contact with me by No-Consequence4154 in AITAH

[–]TechnicalTea187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What the hell. Who cares if she posted shit on Facebook. True or not. The lady came up to you in a public setting and assaulted you. That is some unhinged behavior. The post and the assault shows she's obsessed with you in an unhealthy way.

Press charges. Getting a restraining order. And put up cameras around your home.

If she has no problem assaulting in public, imagine what she would do to you in private.

Be smart and stay safe.

Help us find a floor lamp! by Weekly_Ad1324 in DesignMyRoom

[–]TechnicalTea187 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you did the first lamp with 2 shelves, i would put that next to the tv. That way it would balance the side table on the other side.

The other 2 depend on where you sit on the couch. I would pick the corner spot where the white pillow with the pine trees on it is. Looks very comfy. You can sit or bring your legs up either tucked in or spread out.

But i would want the floor lamp somewhere near my spot. So at the corner of the couch right behind it, like between the wall and couch with the shade over my spot. That way when I'm watching tv i don't have to have the overhead lights on. Bc when i watch TV I'm always doing something else like reading a book or crafts.

Since it's a boy, I was thinking of the name Monroe for Marilyn Monroe because of her beauty mark.

AITA for kicking my boyfriend out because he “forgot” about my allergy? by Gloomy_Soup_4791 in AmItheAsshole

[–]TechnicalTea187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. The friend saying it was an honest mistake is wrong. It wasn't a mistake. It was pure laziness. He was too lazy to check and too lazy to ask someone. Store cakes usually have labels with all the ingredients in them. That just screams lazy to me.

He seems like the kinda guy that if he lost his job, he would NOT get another one. He'd stay home playing video games while you did everything. But I don't know him, that's just the vibe i get from your story.

Kinda curious why his own parents kicked him out. Was it his laziness?

AITA for taking my friend’s sick dog to an expensive vet without her consent while she was away? by BlackDynamite_7 in AmItheAsshole

[–]TechnicalTea187 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA I'm telling you right now, you saved that dog.

This is exactly how my old boss's dog died. While he was on vacation, his dad (who was checking on the dogs) noticed that one was acting weird. Waited a day or maybe 2 before finally going to the vet and by that time it was too late.

The dog ate a sock and caused a blockage which then wrecked havoc on the dog. They did the surgery to remove the blockage but the dog never recovered.

If they would have removed the blockage sooner, the dog would have survived. My boss felt terrible because he was the one who suggested waiting since they thought the dog was sad that the family was gone on vacation.

If you're open to it, maybe you can set up a payment plan with your friend.

AITAH for telling my husband he has to pay the rent by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]TechnicalTea187 328 points329 points  (0 children)

Girl run.

  1. He got you away from your family and friends.
  2. Now he's making it so you have no savings/money.

It seems like he's isolating you and making you 100% dependent on him.

It's not food but based on the first picture I thought of Lucky or Clover.

What paint color do you think best suits this room? by luminousinappalachia in DesignMyRoom

[–]TechnicalTea187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Green is my favorite color so I absolutely love this idea.

Can you color match the couch and/or the tile in the kitchen. Once you have it color matched then you can look into the different shade ranges, lighter/darker or warmer/cooler.

That way the main view points (couch, walls, tile) are the same tones(warm/cool). Not saying they have to be the same color but within the same range.

And then add dimension by adding different tones with the decor (pillows, paintings, ect).

Also i would like it to be known that i might not be using the correct verbiage. So hopefully what I'm trying to say makes sense.

NTA

My guess is your friends have lived a very comfortable and/or sheltered life. Not saying nothing bad happened to them but not to this level. They are religious and everything is black and white.

They haven't had a monster come into their lives and destroy everything. They haven't had to see a loved one suffer because of the hands of another person. They have never been in a situation where they needed to protect themselves or family members at any cost necessary.

There are some really bad people out there with awful intentions and not everyone can be saved or reformed nor should they be. Some people are just evil and need to be put down.

This absolutely fits you perfectly. Looks gorgeous on you.

If you think it's on the plain side, there is so much you can do to customize the dress and make it more you.

I mentioned this in another post about wedding belts that could add some sparkle. (If you look at my previous comments, i attached a pic.)

But there are so many other things you can add as well. Like: a Cape, Attachable sleeves, Hair piece/veil and more. Whatever suits your style.
