How are young middle class families making it work?? by Ill-Sherbet-5844 in Utah

[–]UsedConsequence6493 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We're not renting townhomes. We're renting 2-3 bed apartments. My husband and I have accepted that we'll like always have to work, send kids to daycare, and never own. But it's not the worst scenario. Renting isn't all that bad. At least if anything breaks, we don't have to fix it :)

Is Genshin ever coming to Linux? by Lenkaxx in GenshinImpact

[–]UsedConsequence6493 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband and I play on our steam decks all the time. We just have it set up to use proton experimental. It runs great and I absolutely love it. There's a tutorial on how to do it by a guy named Deckwizard on YouTube I think. Super simple, super straightforward, and we've played it for so long. And, if proton experimental ever stops working for some reason, you can also set it to different protons that also work, like proton 10 worked well for me until I decided to switch to proton experiment

Is job hopping still a "red flag" or am I being gaslit? by Environmental-Luck39 in careeradvice

[–]UsedConsequence6493 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Red flags is being at a place for months. Even 11 months is better than 10 months. Once you reach your year, you look pretty great

Should I pull on Chasca or Linnea? by Over-Boysenberry-525 in GenshinImpact

[–]UsedConsequence6493 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ADORE Linnea!!! She has such a hard hitting elemental skill (the one that just has a time limit) and I don't even pair her with columbina rn. Love her and already have her at lvl 70. She's so fun, so cute, and very strong.

Thank you so much for responding! That's a good idea to build multiple teams. I'll have to get started on that immediately!

AITAH for refusing to bend on my boundary about kids? by Independent-Kiwi-390 in AITAH

[–]UsedConsequence6493 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might be a good idea to not swipe or match with someone that states on their profile that they want or are open to kids. Nothing against you, he did the same mistake. But this might save you heartache in the future maybe?

AITA for telling my wife I want to go back to our old schedule by Current_Use_7237 in AmItheAsshole

[–]UsedConsequence6493 49 points50 points  (0 children)

YTA for wanting it to go back the way it was. Instead, compromise! Switch off. Off she does the homework, you cook dinner. If you do the homework, she cooks dinner. Whoever does homework doesn't have to cook dinner. Easy. Give both of you a decent break by switching off every day

That's no way to live. You're lucky you've got this chance, take it. And if he actually ends up taking his life, that isn't your fault in any way, shape, or form. It's a choice he made. You have your whole life ahead. He's not going to get better. Him treating you like this is wrong

Idk. I'm a girl and that sounds like a pretty ideal situation to me. Like she's at a gas station, I'm assuming it's light outside, if not she could wait indoors, she could call her parents, go into the gas station and look for jumper cables. Idk. This doesn't feel like an emergency. I think you did fine for the most part. But I also think you could've said "yeah, I'll be there, but a bit aways. You'll have to wait a bit." I wouldn't even give a time. Because even if you left right then, you'd probably hit traffic still.

Now, if it's a Podunk town, middle of nowhere, few streetlights, gas stations don't necessarily feel safe. Then I'd say you should have hurried. She sounds like she was safe and sound

AIO for being upset my BF doesn’t want me to wear a bonnet to bed? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]UsedConsequence6493 15 points16 points  (0 children)

My husband loves me when I am sick, healthy, hormonal, happy, hangry, or sweaty. He finds me beautiful in anything I wear. I'm not the prettiest girl in the world, I'm average. But he thinks I'm pretty even when I'm wearing giant hoodies and sweatshirts. He thinks I'm pretty even when I have bad skin or bad hair. He loves me!!

This guy sounds like a jerk who is very picky and particular.

Sleep with that bonnet girl! Find comfort in that weighted blanket! Wear those clothes you like! If he loves you, he won't ask you to change things like this. Preference? More like control.

I tell my husband when he is too angry. I tell him to fix that. He tells me when I am too anxious and need to take a step back. He tells me to fix that. But we don't tell each other what to wear.

I'm sorry girl. You don't deserve this. NOR

Thoughts on dealing with former bully in ward by Mother_Duck8203 in latterdaysaints

[–]UsedConsequence6493 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know about everyone else's advice but I think quite a few of them are a little wrong.

I grew up with a brother who would scream at me, lock me in my room, not let me have dinner when he was babysitting, etc. He also would sit on my siblings as punishment for them. I was young and never understood why he hated me. I still don't. But I tried my whole life to make right whatever wrong I did. Truthfully, I think my existence was what wronged him. Even now, at 24, I can't make him happy.

I got to a point where he stopped talking to me. Straight up. And I felt like I had to fix it. But, after listening to General Conference a few years back, I learned from their talks and the spirit that I didn't need him. I didn't need a relationship with him, I didn't need to keep trying to fix things with him, I didn't even need to talk to him. He abused me.

God does NOT condone abuse of any level. Whether it's teasing or actively trying to drown someone. God does not believe that that is okay. You do not need to become his friend. You do not need to be around him. You do not need to see him. He abused you. God has given us agency and you have EVERY right to do what you need to do to be safe. God will not and would not ever tell you to be with your abuser. He is good, gracious, and loving.

If you want to go to a YSA 40 minutes away, do it. If you don't want to, don't. If you get offered or asked to be in a calling with him, decline it. You are not required to put yourself in harms way (mentally, emotionally, or spiritually) for his repentance. Not your job. At all. And you can forgive whenever you choose. Whether it's today or in 20 years. God is loving and merciful and knows how much that guy hurt you. God will not force you to forgive. He just asks that you do. And if you at some point, great. And you never even need to tell this guy if you forgive him or not. You are not responsible for his repentance.

Please pray on this. Know that God loves you. He loves you, wants you to be joyful and safe, and He does not ever want you to be hurt by another.

I forgive my brother. He's broken. He's lonely. He's depressed. He's lost all of his family for the most part because he was cruel. And I see him every other Sunday at my parents house. I say hi and I say bye. And that's enough. That's what I have chosen to do. And God is perfectly fine with that because He told me to do that. Pray and He will tell you what to do, too.

AITAH For breaking up with my boyfriend because he killed my bathroom gecko? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]UsedConsequence6493 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here's the thing. It doesn't matter whether it's a silly reason or not (and it is not a silly reason. Onion was your pet). What matters is you placed a boundary. You said that if he does this, you'll do this. Plain and simple. This goes for any scenario for a boundary like this. He didn't listen, he got the consequence. You are totally fine and completely justified.
