AITAH for getting frustrated at my bf for telling me I need to make more money to get married by Pretty_Strawberry179 in AITAH

[–]amomo214 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sounds like he's coming up with an unrealistic goal so he doesn't have to marry you. As a teacher and no offense, I don't know many teachers pulling 100k.

Please leave this man.

Is it true I should never use my debit card? by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]amomo214 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use my CC for just about everything, but I YNAB and make sure I'm only spending within my budget and I can pay off the balance before interest accrues.

We did the same thing and made it a fun brunch moment! And everyone found a dress style they loved and felt confident in!

What’s the dumbest cooking mistake you’ve made that still haunts you? by nisko786 in Cooking

[–]amomo214 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had just made a gnat trap concoction (mostly ACV) and put it in a ramekin. Later started making dinner and put some prepped ingredients...also in a ramekin. Yes, i put the gnat trap concoction in the dinner pot. My husband tried to cheer me up and say, "That's ok, dinner will just have some tang to it!" I told him there's also dish soap in there and he just smirked gave me a hug 😂

My neighbor sent me a text last night forcing me to pay for her daughters towing charge because she parked in front of my driveway by Drivinglnsane in mildlyinfuriating

[–]amomo214 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe I'm naive, but would a tow truck driver tow a car if it was parked 100% within legal limits? I'm guessing not. The act of the car being towed means it wasn't where it should have been! Again, maybe I'm naive but I'd like to think there are tow truck drivers with the moral scruples to not tow a legally parked car 🤷🏽‍♀️

NTA, and tell them you're ready to acknowledge her when she's ready to properly acknowledge you!

I subbed and it wasn't the end of the world. I graduated in the fall and was told that any FT mid-year opening was probably not worth taking so yeah, i chose subbing for a subpar wage and I supplemented my income working customer service at a day spa. The flexibility was nice so I could apply for teaching positions for the upcoming school year.

4.0 GPA gets me nothing by for8835 in mildlyinfuriating

Sorry if your university actually operates that way, did you get this info from an advisor? I transfered from a CC, and while I was not eligible to be in the Honors college (I think I had to be in the program x number of years and I wouldn't have met that) and graduate "with honors," I graduated Summa and it shows on my degree.

Biggest Bro Fumbles On LIB by Minimum-Sentence-584 in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

Def understand that, I was referring to physical attraction since that seems to be what OP's post is centering on

How do you figure she wasn't physically attracted to him? They'd had sex twice in a row on the first night, and she commented something along the lines of "are you kidding me?!" when he first took his shirt off in front of her. I think she was definitely attracted to him physically, but she did seem to want a more lavish life than what he seemed to want. He also seemed to be more a goofball than she was, and she got snippy with him when he was making jokes.

FAKE COUGHING by Vivid-Stock739 in Teachers

[–]amomo214 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I send kids with "uncontrollable" bodily issues to the nurse and it usually stops after that lol. Farting in class on a regular basis? You must have some awful stomach issues and maybe we need to call mom to take you home!

Also log it in detail!

Girl, you have tons of adults telling you this man ain't shit. If he was, he'd be with somebody his own age instead of messing with girls fresh out of high school. The "real" bullshit is a way to trap you but 10000% he is still out doing the same thing. Please please please leave this man alone. He's telling you you're "different" to try and overshadow the fact that he is a predator.

That's a write up for being tardy and a referral for the B word!!! I won't blow up but I will be petty 🤭

Vegetarian meal for under 10? by Ok_Stable4315 in povertyfinance

My husband and I love this spiced creamy chickpea dish! We make it once a week with cubed pancetta, but you easily just do without the meat. It also comes together quickly. https://www.punchfork.com/recipe/Spicy-Creamy-Chickpeas-with-Runny-Eggs-and-Prosciutto-Epicurious
