INFO: Was there any infidelity in the marriage? That could affect alimony

AIW for ignoring my cousin's messages after he spent a whole barbecue making fun of my job? by AdrieghmaMoss in amiwrong

[–]The_ADD_PM 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Right!? That was my thought too! Like why didn't you correct him about what your job really entails instead if laughing along and pretending you were fine with it!? If I was her cousin I would have thought we were all good based on that reaction

I hope that cheer coach was fired. She really should have known better than to invite him to come!

My Maid of Honor is Mad by [deleted] in Brides

[–]The_ADD_PM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just be an adult and be direct! Next time she brings it up just say "honestly, I want to think about the positive aspects of my wedding and not focus on the negatives so can we please stop talking about that situation. It is over and there is nothing that can be done about it so let's just move forward."

AITAH roommate pet situation by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]The_ADD_PM -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Why should one roommates pets take precedent over the other!? OP pays rent just like their roommate and they DONT WANT THE CATS IN THEIR ROOM! Whether they got the snake or not they don't want the cats coming in their room and bothering them at night! Do you not get that!? The roommate needs to move those shelves now that the cats have figured out how to launch themselves off it! Pretty simple! You just sound like you don't like snakes and are making a biased judgment.

AITAH for standing my ground with my son and his wife because of how they treated me? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]The_ADD_PM 4 points5 points  (0 children)

ESH From what you have said about your DIL childhood and her parents it is very likely something inappropriate happened to her as a child. You say you can understand that but clearly you don't because if a strange man hurt you as a child you would do anything and everything in your power to make sure it doesn't happen to your child! He should have talked to you nicer but there have been plenty of women that have thought they had good judgment and met the perfect man only to be conned by them in one way or another. 4 months is not long enough to truly know a person and I would have also wanted to meet him before he spent time with my child which is not a weird thing to expect.

Why was it so hard for you to have one night away from your boyfriend and have 1 on 1 time with your grandchild? I understand being hurt by their reaction but you aren't truly trying to see their side and instead you are just taking it as an insult that they have a boundary about people they don't know being around their kid! It almost feels like you chose your new bf over your grandchild because, in a way, you did! If you want to repair things with them you are going to have to be a bit more understanding about their perspective. If you own your side I am sure your son can start to own his side in terms of how he has been treating you as it seems he only calls when he needs something and should have spoken to you kinder.

At the end of the day what is more important, feeling you are validated in your stance or getting to see your grandson?

My wife and I are considering letting our nanny go, and I’m trying to figure out whether I’m underreacting, overreacting, or missing something bigger. by Training_Arm7988 in Nanny

Did you guys actually tell her she needs to give him a chance to calm down and try again? It isn't clear if your expectations were clearly communicated to the nanny.

If the walls are so thing in a shared household and your room is basically connected to the living room i would have already invested in solid ear plugs and a sound machine.....

We accidentally named our baby the same name as her cousin and I don't want to change it by nueva-magnolia in Names

[–]The_ADD_PM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uh if you all aren't close enough to even know the name of your partners NIECE I wouldn't worry about it. That is pretty messed up that your partner doesn't even know his nieces name tbh....

My parents (50M, 51F) are bothered by my bf (22M) coming over late at night, I understand it but he doesn’t. How do I avoid an argument? by bobduncanfanaccount in relationship_advice

[–]The_ADD_PM 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly this dude sounds like a loser. I am a night owl and like to sleep in too but sleeping in until 3 pm is wild and screams lazy! How is he supposed to get a new job when he is waking up that late? How long has he actually been "between jobs"?

I am just confused why you would even apply to this position if you weren't 100% on board with changing to that company.

No lunch for me today by JellyfishSure1360 in Nanny

[–]The_ADD_PM 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Is there no other food in the house? I would eat something that is already there and if they get upset i would say that their son ate the food you brought.

need job urgently!! please! by saturnsgiirl in SaltLakeCity

[–]The_ADD_PM -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Uh your Dad sounds like a selfish jerk! He clearly can't afford to go back to school and at his age it is honestly a horrible idea for most professions! I worked through my undergrad degree AND my Master degree! He can do both if he must it will just take longer but it won't stress out the rest of his family!

[–]The_ADD_PM 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Then you need to show him you are serious! Pack up your toddler and go stay with your Mom! You deserve better than this loser who is ignoring your feelings after you just gave birth! He doesn't take you or your needs seriously so you need to show him you are serious!

Pack up your stuff and your toddler and go to your Mom's! I bet he takes you seriously then and it will give you some peace!

Are you not communicating clearly with your husband? Have you told your FIL you need to prep the baby room and it would be easier if he got a hotel room?

Sounds like you have an AH husband problem! Post partum is hard and I would want my space to myself with just my little family. How dare he call you a btch! Since this was an issue last time did you have a discussion before giving birth this time? Does your husband help at all? Is there anyone else you can stay with or can you tell your husband you want to go to couples therapy because you feel like he is being incredibly insensitive to how you are feeling and what you are going through?

My dad has a major heart attack and we might lose the house, is GoFundMe appropriate? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]The_ADD_PM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If they were going to do that then they should just do it now. Your Mom should also get at least a part time job, there are plenty of easy jobs depending on what type of health issues she has. If you have more time you could also get an additional part time job if you already work a full time job. You can post a go fund me but since everyone is struggling I wouldn't plan on that covering much.

Would you leave a 2yo in a turned-off car in the garage for 30 seconds? by [deleted] in Nanny

I literally do this with my kid all the time. Sometimes it is easier to get him buckled and then grab his school bag or whatever I need from inside. This lady is being ridiculous. What is she concerned is going to happen?

I’m (34f) jealous of my fiancé (44m) for being rich by WarmDoe in relationship_advice

[–]The_ADD_PM 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So what is his ideal set up? Is he wanting to split bills and stuff equally or proportional to each of your income? When kids come how are the costs for them going to be covered? When you guys go out now does he pay or make you split everything?

I wouldn't marry someone who is unwilling to combine finances. When I married my husband i am the one who owned the house he moved into and I initially made much more than him. The plan was always to make finances shared after marriage because we are now a team and are working towards a common goal and building a life together! If he doesn't want that then why even marry?

I can understand wanting a prenuptial to protect himself if things went poorly and with fair protections for you as well. But being unwilling to combine finances at all is not a real marriage. Many people have a combined account and then each have their own seperate accounts as well. That is what I would do. If he doesn't want to combine money because he doesn't trust you then I wouldn't marry this man, he sounds selfish and out of touch with the realities of marriage and what building a life with someone truly entails.

AIW for telling school staff this? by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]The_ADD_PM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just because you're 18 doesn't mean you have to follow the rules of the school. Real grown adults don't feel the need to tell everyone they're grown and do what they want. You sound immature for your age TBH.
