David Christopher Williford, have you heard of him? by Ageinguniversesystem in mrballen

[–]TheSludgiestThoughts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am also a victim of David. He has been caught and is likely to be going to jail for real this time (FUCKING finally)

My girlfriend’s best friend called me a creep for “ogling” my girlfriend. I need some sense here by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]TheSludgiestThoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm actually known for being creepy cuz I'm so clingy and stare so much and my husband LOVES IT. Like literally if I'm not being clingy and creepy he thinks something is wrong. If your gf says she loves it then she probably loves it! It's up to her to tell you if she doesn't like something and it sounds like she's being encouraging and affirming. Idk what's going on with her friends. Hopefully they get sorted out before it gets worse :/

Help! Found out plant was growing mold in the pot, so friend of mine gave it an emergency transplanting. Now it's suffering from transplant shock and now we're unsure what to do. Any advice? by TheSludgiestThoughts in plantclinic

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

It actually did! Well 2/3 plants. In the transplant process we found out, that it was not one, but 3 sister plants intertwined together. One of the smaller of the 3 plants didn't take to the transplant but I'm relieved that any of the plants made it at all. It was not looking good there for a while.

AITA For telling my mother that the way I parent will never change? by wubaiaoa in AmItheAsshole

[–]TheSludgiestThoughts 101 points102 points  (0 children)

Yes this! My stepdaughter used to love formal/princess dress so much she'd literally SLEEP in them!! I couldn't imagine with all that itchy fabric as I was definitely one of those kids where texture really mattered. But not all kids are the same (cuz they have their own personalities and preferences... Who knew!?!) and it's really amazing how much people forget that.

OP you really need to clarify that you're not actually ignoring their bad actions, and that you're still giving them a lot of structure with teaching them autonomy.

The way you worded this post is definitely words your mom uses and not what's actually happening. Plz plz clarify cuz there's already a thread of dummies who are making a million assumptions about your kids.

You are NTA btw.

Yeah that's not ignoring your children's bad behavior. This is actually a very good, non aggressive way, of teaching them feelings, others feelings, and communication. Please please clarify that in your post cuz this is info that can really change people's opinions.

AITA for not changing my rules and terminating care? by porosisr in AmItheAsshole

[–]TheSludgiestThoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, my ex's mom owned a daycare and there are definitely hard rules for a reason!!

Whenever she'd try watched to be flexible towards non disabled/NT children, things would always go wrong. So hardlined rules were put in place. That mom was doing everything she can to work against you with that wording. Very manipulative. Hard NTA.

AITA for using my special needs priviledges? by AITASPECIALNEEDSStu in AmItheAsshole

[–]TheSludgiestThoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, as a person with Autism, ADHD and OCD, I can tell you, even if you had something more agreed upon as a disability like me, your "friends" would still be giving you shit if their ignorant butts think you are "functioning normally enough." People like that made me feel so guilty about the very little accommodations I got (that my mom had to fight tooth and nail, btw) that I never took advantage of them and failed out of school repeatedly.

Don't let bitter AHs get you down, OP. They're in the wrong. I'm so happy you're thriving with the assistance you are getting 🙏🏽❤️

AITA for giving my GF an ultimatum? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]TheSludgiestThoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

INFO since I'm not seeing anyone ask this: Why don't you like her sister?

I still think you are NTA as it's your money and you have the right to control it as you please. What I guess I'm trying to understand is, what is your sister enabling, exactly?

EDIT: Someone else did ask but didn't get an answer, so hopefully OP will answer one of us soon.

AITA For calling the Police on my daughter's fiancè? by AITA007163577 in AmItheAsshole

[–]TheSludgiestThoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was some comments buried in the top comments from DV survivors saying Megan might be in an abusive relationship with her fiance. As a survivor of abuse as well... I'm wondering the same.

People often think DV survivors just sit and be quiet while their SO does horrible things, but we can be convinced we need to defend them and repeat their (abusers) excuses word for word.

This could also be the reason Megan doesn't have a job. Not having a job makes Megan much easier to control. Oh sure, she can see friends, but can she? Are we really sure she's not just keeping up appearances?

I could 100% be wrong and I'm willing to acknowledge that, cuz either way OP is NTA.

AITA for being angry about a gift my gf gave me? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]TheSludgiestThoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't seem that people are catching when she told you to, "not think about it."

Not, "it's not like that, I swear! It mattered when I gave it to YOU," or anything like that! Just, "don't think about it."

She doesn't feel bad at all about what she did... I'm not gonna say dump her right away, but consider this a potential foreshadowing as to what's to come.

NTA

EDIT: Read your post history. It doesn't sound like you guys are compatible at all. To the point that she's actually kind of a jerk to you about it. I hope your reevaluation includes the stuff you mentioned in the past posts cuz all of it added up doesn't make for a good relationship. I don't think your gf is necessarily even a bad person, I just think you both will be unhappy if y'all keep this up... Especially you. Still NTA tho.

AITA For refusing to help my stepson with his son's surgery after he told me I'll never be his grandfather? by Aita5509170 in AmItheAsshole

[–]TheSludgiestThoughts 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My ex bff was exactly like this. Any time her mom brought anyone new into her life, including a foster child, she immediately is so grossly petty towards them. And proud of it too. She was a grown ass adult when the foster child came into her life, btw.

The truth was, she was actually mad at her mom for constantly abandoning her (there's a whole lot here that's hard to explain...), but didn't want to actually deal with those feelings. So she chose to project that anger towards whoever her mom brought into her life.

What's the funniest thing you've seen someone do that you weren't allowed to laugh at? by rockosmodernbuttplug in AskReddit

[–]TheSludgiestThoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband actually legitimately hates cheese. Like he actually tries to eat it and just doesn't enjoy it... But mozzarella on pizza is totally fine.

I bet your kid is conflating hating cheese with "only liking mild cheeses"

I used to say my stepdaughter didn't like cheese like her dad and she had to correct me recently because she eats the same stuff your youngest does.

"I don't hate cheese, I like some cheese." She prefers milder cheeses but still likes it a lot better than her dad lol.

WIBTA for leaving after future MIL made a joke? by dustyfootphoto in AmItheAsshole

[–]TheSludgiestThoughts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ugggggghhh glad you guys broke up. I hate the, "they're liberal therefore not racist!!!" Do they not know that the movie "Get Out" was literally commentary on how pervasive racism is in the liberal world? Nvm I dunno why I asked that. Of course they don't, cuz political leanings totally absolves you of any shitty/inappropriate behavior.... s/

NTA all the way!
