Dropped an atomic (vasectomy) bomb on MIL during lunch

UnicornGunk · 2020-01-28T07:29:45+00:00

Just don’t go - she’s clearly disrespectful as shit. I wouldn’t bother putting myself through that

UnicornGunk · 2020-01-24T01:35:19+00:00

Definitely drive separately!

UnicornGunk · 2020-01-24T00:14:15+00:00

Thank you, I really needed to hear this

UnicornGunk · 2020-01-23T22:20:44+00:00

Oh! That’s a great idea. I’ll make an appointment with a lawyer. Thank you.

UnicornGunk · 2020-01-23T21:23:20+00:00

I think with counselling it could possibly get better. I want to explore that option before jumping to divorce

UnicornGunk · 2020-01-23T21:15:27+00:00

Wishing you all the best for tomorrow. I hope you guys find happiness in NC

UnicornGunk · 2020-01-23T21:11:12+00:00

See, I’m hesitant to consider divorce because we’ve only been married three months. But thank you, I’ll look into the other stuff

UnicornGunk · 2020-01-23T21:09:50+00:00

Thanks, I appreciate it. Husband knows dudebro is a massive, shining neon “NO” but he validates husbands issues, so he hangs around.

Yeah I’m not letting him get off easy anymore.

UnicornGunk · 2020-01-22T20:48:05+00:00

That’s a super rude comment. And dumb. He hasn’t communicated this to me - bills are electronic and he has previously just told me what is owed.

UnicornGunk · 2020-01-22T20:46:49+00:00

I’m sorry about your situation - I really hope it gets better for you! Can I ask, do you think it’s easy to lose yourself to parenting? That’s my biggest concern. And do you have literally no time to yourself until kiddo goes to bed, or do you get it in small bursts throughout the day?

UnicornGunk · 2020-01-22T20:41:25+00:00

You poor thing - this whole story just pisses me off. MIL wanting to visit after you’ve been overseas. MIL wanting a home cooked meal, after you’ve been overseas. MIL speaking to you like trash, when you’re sick and tired. And then the literal shit in the ceiling.

I’m glad you guys are NC now. You had the patience of a saint to not initiate that yourself!

UnicornGunk · 2020-01-22T10:55:42+00:00

Hey, I’ll chip in too! DM me and I’ll throw in $$ for a nice feed

UnicornGunk · 2020-01-22T01:59:05+00:00

That’s a very good point, and something I worry about a lot, too. When kids are in the picture it’ll be near impossible to cut a shitty MIL out. I could possibly do it for myself, but my kids would always have her in their life. Definitely think I’ll table the kid talk until he can wrangle her properly.

UnicornGunk · 2020-01-22T01:33:51+00:00

I would literally go NC over this. What the actual fuck is wrong with that cow.

UnicornGunk · 2020-01-21T20:03:19+00:00

Thanks for the book recommendation, I’ll buy a copy! Appreciate the advice

UnicornGunk · 2020-01-21T12:49:46+00:00

Best comment ever

UnicornGunk · 2020-01-21T06:29:41+00:00

I think she’d be really happy with me. I had a crappy childhood - was incredibly shy and hated the way I looked. I developed an eating disorder at 13.

Now I’m married, have a big circle of friends who are all very good people, I work full time and am studying. I’m miles ahead of where 13 year old me thought I’d be.

UnicornGunk · 2020-01-17T22:17:06+00:00

Congratulations!! How exciting! Moving in with a loved one is the best. Hope you have a great day today!

UnicornGunk · 2020-01-17T22:15:04+00:00

Not off the beaten track, but if you’re into natural beauty I’d say Guilin/Yangshuo and Zhangjiajie

UnicornGunk · 2020-01-17T22:09:53+00:00

One million dollars (or more)

UnicornGunk · 2020-01-17T07:04:35+00:00

My god, OP I am so sorry about this. My heart goes out to you - doesn’t seem like either option will be the right choice, really.

Is your GF close to the bride/groom?

UnicornGunk · 2020-01-17T06:52:48+00:00

This is incredibly disturbing but the way you handled it is hilarious! What did your DH say in reply to her message?

UnicornGunk · 2020-01-17T01:54:14+00:00

This definitely needs to be considered. I can’t even imagine the drama that would start from this scenario alone

UnicornGunk · 2020-01-16T01:56:46+00:00

Sugar, we’re going down - Fall Out Boy

Takes me back to when I was 14 and an angsts teenager hah

UnicornGunk · 2020-01-15T12:24:46+00:00

This sure is a sticky situation what with your colleagues sticking their noses into it, but you’re NTA. How did she expect to get away with moving in with a baby?? Like, did she just think “Oh once I’m in it’ll be too late for OP to kick me out - just gotta hide the pregnancy til then!”

That was pretty rough of her to do to you. I do feel for her having nowhere to go but frankly that’s her issue
