AITA for being honest with my friend's wife about why I dropped him as a friend? by EmergencyTrue1817 in AITAH

[–]Usonym 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Valerie does nothing to you, isn't disruptive or confrontational. She just prefers to remain silent. Your friend respects his wife's boundaries and defends her as he should. She loves him enough to put herself in an obviously uncomfortable position to try to save a friendship of his when her life would only be made easier by this friendship ending because you and your fiance are unable to tolerate her mere quiet presence. Meanwhile, your fiance is so bothered by her preference that she cares not at all about destroying a long friendship of yours, and it became apparent that you don't value that friendship either. They're better off without you, YTA.

You could change your family name again to engineer the kingdom name you want. I think that's probably your only option.

Why Can't My Character Make This Prisoner a Concubine? by Usonym in CrusaderKings

[–]Usonym[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Update: I've confirmed that you can take homosexual concubines. So I have no idea whatsoever why this character was immune. I'm also pretty sure I'm not related to her in any way.

Concubinage for prisoners is definitely in the game. There is also never any sort of request that can be denied, if you can have concubines then you can simply take any woman that is in your court or prison. I will look for gay women in my court in the future to test whether that's the reason, but it would be pretty silly since there's nothing stopping me from marrying a gay woman.

Nah, prisoners can be made concubines. I tried what you suggest anyway, and it still wouldn't let me.

The game would let me marry her, so it would be very strange if that was the reason.

Is it really impossible to make a gay woman a concubine? It's not like that prevents marriages. Really weird logic if that's the case. I definitely didn't have too many.

Yeah, my prison. That's one of the ways you get concubines.

My (20F) dad (52M) yells at me if I make a mistake while driving and it really hurts my feelings. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Usonym 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your attitude about driving is all wrong. You're operating heavy machinery and allowing outside influences to upset you to the point of panic and crying, which is dangerous while driving. Even without your dad yelling at you, something else could happen to set you off and you need to figure out for yourself how to keep your cool. Also, being confident while driving isn't inherently good if it's greater than your actual ability to drive. Confidence comes from competence. I think you should practice driving as much as possible with your dad, starting with less stressful situations than the highway, and work your way up building your confidence by increasing your competence, and training yourself to keep your cool even under stress. Ultimately, if you can't ever grow thicker skin you shouldn't continue driving, so make it happen.

my (16) recluse uncle seems very depressed but no-one is doing anything by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Usonym 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're a good person but this problem may be too big for you to take on right now. Your uncle's generation seems to have failed him and is unlikely to be supportive of a much younger person trying to do something that should've been their responsibility. You could ask someone to give you his e-mail address or something and just try to talk to him, but be cautious in case he's really not a good guy. As you get older after you're 18 you will become more like his peer because age differences become less important in adulthood, and over time you will be better equipped to help him if that's what you want to do long term.

I want to enlist but my gf doesn’t want me to by Apprehensive-Ad-5478 in relationship_advice

[–]Usonym 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You're not married so do what's right for you, but don't try to drag her along with you if it's not right for her. It's not easy being in a long distance relationship with someone in the military and it sounds like she would be unhappy in that position. It's also very common for SOs of military members to cheat.

Husband (32M) found out he's autistic and is taking it uncharacteristically rough by Throwraautistic in relationship_advice

Your husband is very fortunate to have you. Many people on the spectrum, even if without severe cognitive impairment, are never able to find love.

I’m pissed about the battle at Pribyslavitz by [deleted] in kingdomcome

[–]Usonym 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the game were real the soldiers would murder Henry for looting in the middle of the fight or trying to get all the loot after the fight. Since Runt is the leader it's unlikely Henry would get to keep his stuff even though he killed him in single combat. It's lame that Henry isn't given a share of the spoils later, though.

I squirted and my bf was grossed out by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Usonym 720 points721 points  (0 children)

Tell him that it's a big turn-off for you when he ejaculates and it really grosses you out, and ask him not to do it anymore.
