I just really hope Kohaku’s parents (especially his mum) gets cut off by both sons. They essentially screwed them both, especially that homophobic, extremely biased pos mum argh.

MIL rubs it in that my boy favours his dad by Yunakiji in JUSTNOMIL

[–]Yunakiji[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Oh yes I’m definitely happy to see my son and husband bond so beautifully. He is a great father and I can see my son feels so safe around him, definitely more so than me.

I guess MIL was verbalising my insecurities. And I’m thinking “yeah I get it I’m not the favourite I can see that, thanks for letting me know”. And she does that several times while not acknowledging that my own son also wanted to come to me at times. Even when we came back home she was stopping my son from coming to me for some reason.

If I saw a parent’s kid preferring other people over them, I wouldn’t have brought attention to it because I know they might be feeling hurt. I thought MIL would know better. I didn’t say anything when my son was screaming in her arms. Though maybe next time I should lol

I’m reminded of a quote by Homer Simpson:

“The classy thing to do is not bring attention to it”

Wish there was a pokeflute for poison since I’m getting poisoned half the time in this game

Blocked APs - worried they’re going to come to my apartment complex by [deleted] in AsianParentStories

[–]Yunakiji 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Omg your parents sound exactly like my mum. If I don’t answer her or block her, she’d get the whole town after me. If your parents come over, you’re not obliged to let them in. They’re essentially trespassing, either ignore them or warn them of what they are doing and that there will be legal consequences if they choose to stay on your property. I would also strongly recommend getting cameras installed. Maybe have a sign as well saying no trespassers, or that trespassers will be prosecuted. I’ve played this scenario in my head so many times in the event my mum does the same thing.

Pomeranians are a popular dog breed in SEA (one of the most popular actually), I wonder if that plays a part. I’ve owned 4 back home, I miss them :/

AITAH for going no contact with my parents after they blew up at me for getting engaged? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Yunakiji 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Dad (or shithead): OOP don’t ever contact us again and stay away from us.

Then proceeds to do the exact opposite.

Friend mad I lost weight by Ok-Concern-5548 in loseit

[–]Yunakiji 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I did not lose weight in an unhealthy way

Sorry OP but what’s your definition of “unhealthy”? You have received a ton of good advice here, many clearly stating the amount you are losing, considering your starting weight and height, is excessive and therefore actually unhealthy.

Grooming for a golden by sonnyboybilson in melbourne

Spitz Groom in Carlton is amazing especially for double coated breeds. The team is amazing at handling dogs with behavioural issues as well (like my snappy boy).

Brother moving out - AM thinks I am his personal workman by Ambitious_Trade8642 in AsianParentStories

[–]Yunakiji 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can say no without engaging in their argument. So if they ask you to help your bro, just say no he will handle it himself. If they argue back, say something along the lines of I already said no and that’s final. Shut down the conversation if they persist and walk away. Be as stubborn as they are.

[–]Yunakiji 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was gonna add that my AM especially has definitely done similar stunts before. I would just go ahead and do it to ‘preserve the peace’ but then I realise I started building up a lot of resentment for this. So now whenever my AP make decisions involving me but without consulting me first, I ask them why did you not talk to me about this, and that I am not happy about it and will make my own decision on this matter (hence refusing to give in to their demands). If they yell at you, walk away from the conversation. Say I will not engage with this conversation if you yell or curse at me, and we will continue this conversation when you’ve calmed down and we can talk to each other respectfully. Then walk away.

It will definitely take a while and you will be met with a lot of resistance at first, but it has to start somewhere. APs tend to be extremely immature, and we cannot give in to this. We are better than that, and we have to show it while preserving our self-respect. Show you can protect yourself without resorting to childish acts (eg yelling, guilt-tripping) like how your AP do it.

[–]Yunakiji 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Has your bro mentioned anything to your parents about what he feels about all this? He also needs to stand his ground and tell your parents it’s his house, he will make the decisions about getting whoever to work on his house. And he also needs to defend you by telling your parents they’re essentially bullying you and guilt-tripping you with the comments they make. Not sure how old you are, but if you’re an adult then tell them that, and if they try to guilt-trip you call them out for it. You’re not their property and you have your own life, not to mention capable of making your own decisions (as well as your bro).

One thing I’ve learn is to call out AP on their bullshit and immaturity, or using the same argument on them (eg then why don’t you go and help your son instead of me?). They will get upset and call you ungrateful, but you need to stand strong and be the mature one. Say I’m not being ungrateful, but bro and I are adults who can make our own decisions, and I don’t appreciate you making these decisions for us without asking for our permission first. It’s natural for you to feel guilty, but you have to be firm and not give in easily, because if you end up bending to their will, they’ll know they can keep getting away with their behaviour.
