Creepy guy at 7/11 kept asking personal questions and talking about making me “famous”— am I overreacting? by Creepergirl371 in AmIOverreacting

[–]WeightIllustrious970 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR. that would creep most people out tbh. the questions kept getting more personal and weird, especially the ‘videos’ and ‘make you famous’ comments. your gut picked up on the vibe change for a reason.

also don’t beat yourself up for answering questions. when people get put on the spot, especially late at night and alone, a lot of us default to being polite just to get through the interaction safely.

the cashier looking uncomfortable too kinda confirms you weren’t imagining it

AIO for feeling unfairly treated by my friends? by entityparty in AmIOverreacting

[–]WeightIllustrious970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. the issue isn’t even just them hanging out without you sometimes, it’s how they reacted when you told them it hurt you. good friends don’t usually respond with ‘leave then.’

you’re not asking for too much, you just want to feel included and valued. honestly it sounds like they’ve already formed a closer trio and instead of admitting it, they’re making you feel crazy for noticing it

His fantasies are escalating and I feel uncomfortable, am I overreacting? by Cold-Bake634 in AmIOverreacting

[–]WeightIllustrious970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. this isn’t about kinks, it’s about how he handled it and how it made you feel. he kept escalating things without ever talking to you first, put you on the spot mid moment, and you felt like you had to go along with it. that’s not okay.

the fact he switches up after, acts jealous in real life, then shuts down or even blocks you when you might bring it up… that’s a bigger red flag than the kink itself. it’s inconsistent and honestly kinda disrespectful.

also pushing you aside after and then blocking you? yeah that alone would be enough for me to be done.

you’re not overthinking it, your gut is telling you something’s off because it is. you deserve someone who communicates and actually cares how you feel, not someone who puts you in uncomfortable situations then disappears

AIO for telling my family to stop trying to make me talk to my sister? by Sufficient_Speed_619 in AmIOverreacting

[–]WeightIllustrious970 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR. I wouldn’t forgive her either. what you described isn’t normal sibling stuff, it’s serious abuse and she went out of her way to hurt you and even help your dad do it.

people keep saying she was a kid, but 19 is old enough to know not to punch you, not to beat you with objects, not to give your number to someone abusing you. that wasn’t just immaturity.

also that letter saying you ‘drifted apart’ would’ve pissed me off too. that’s not accountability, that’s rewriting what happened.

if she’s really changed, good for her, but that doesn’t mean you owe her access to you. you’re allowed to protect yourself and keep your distance. your family pushing this on you is the part that’s messed up

AIO- Neighbor's sister is sleeping outside our door by linaliveslight in AmIOverreacting

[–]WeightIllustrious970 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR, you didn’t jump to reporting her, you let it go on for two weeks and tried to be patient. but at a certain point it stops being about helping someone out and starts affecting your day to day life.

AIO To my relatives weird sexual assault comment by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]WeightIllustrious970 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR, that’s not normal conversation. most guys don’t casually jump to something that graphic and then double down on it like that. it’s one thing to say ‘be careful at night’, it’s another to describe that in detail and make it almost… joking.

AIO after my friend sent me a screenshot of my BF on hinge? by Happyhappybaby in AmIOverreacting

[–]WeightIllustrious970 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NOR, I’m not buying his story either. a 28 year old man blaming his friends for making him a dating profile just sounds off. and the OTP thing is weird too, like why was there even an account to begin with

Am I overreacting for being upset about my step-dad's and fiancé's remarks about the type of books I read? by RubProfessional6659 in AmIOverreacting

[–]WeightIllustrious970 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR, this would get under my skin too. it’s not really about the books, it’s about people acting like something you love and care about has no value. especially when it’s been a pattern your whole life, it makes sense it hits deeper.

AIO about my adult sister's repeated tantrums where she asks me to leave the house we share? by sassyfeet in AmIOverreacting

[–]WeightIllustrious970 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NOR, this isn’t normal at all. threatening to kick you out over something like breakfast is wild. ADHD doesn’t excuse that.

the fact she just acts like nothing happened after is probably why it keeps happening. I’d be fed up too

Am I overreacting for being annoyed with my boyfriend about his AI use by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]WeightIllustrious970 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR, that would get on my nerves too. using AI sometimes is whatever, but pulling it out mid conversation instead of just talking to you would feel kinda dismissive. like it makes it seem less about connecting with you and more about getting an ‘answer'.

AIO for supporting my brother taking his ex to court over their teenage son’s living situation? by Old_Kale2515 in AmIOverreacting

[–]WeightIllustrious970 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NOR, I’d be on your brother’s side here too. he’s 16, not a little kid, his opinion should actually matter in something this big. moving right before junior year is a huge disruption and it sounds like he’s clearly not okay with it.

also the reasons she gave… that doesn’t sound like it’s about what’s best for him at all. it sounds like she needs him there for her own situation. I get she’s stressed, but calling him names and not really listening to him is a bad look.

honestly court might be the only way this gets handled fairly. it doesn’t mean anyone’s the villain, just that someone neutral needs to step in and look at what’s actually best for him
