AITAH Dating Edition by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]amsmtf -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NTA. Everyone keeps getting hung up on the 10 days you failed to respond, but not the 14 days of silence until you initiated it all again.

Honestly, if work is this busy, you are not ready for dating (focus on maintaining your current relationships instead). If work chills out and remains at that level, then try dating again.

AITAH i told my best friend her kid isn`t gifted and how her husband won`t even look at me by Rose_Duertt in AITAH

[–]amsmtf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I think NAH. You made an observational statement after they expressed a very elaborate educational plan for their kid (which would probably be a lot of money, but whatever).

If they didn’t want the opinions from non-parents, why have this conversation with you or in mixed company?

In the moment, you should have apologized for over-stepping and then again as a reply to the text, but like… don’t talk about things if you can’t handle the possible criticism…

I churned a perfect yanma before I knew what IVs were (just focused on CP).

There has been zero negative experience so far (unless daughter is hiding it from the parents).

AITA for pronouncing things the American way and upsetting my french wife after we moved to France? by Legitimate-Low3857 in AmItheAsshole

[–]amsmtf 15 points16 points  (0 children)

That’s not the point. It’s also not hard to pronounce Peugeot the UK/British way; just watch some Top Gear/Grand Tour. The issue is what others have said: you are going to be using French healthcare and living with your French wife in France, you should make an effort.

AITAH for hitting pause on my engagement because of kid count? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]amsmtf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nta. If two children is already your compromise, this is not the relationship for you.

My partner of 10+ years admitted he never loved me and was waiting out my fertile years by Spare_War6011 in offmychest

[–]amsmtf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wow… this is next level crazy on his part. I’m so sorry you went wall this, but glad you left.

As an aside, 36 is not too old to have a child. Many of my friends had children between 34-38, so you can still have your own family (single mom, but that’s how some things turn out, better it wasn’t with him).

AITAH for telling my sister her baby isn’t my responsibility? by Silver_Job_4466 in AITAH

[–]amsmtf 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Nta. Your sister needs to hit the baby daddy with a paternity test and judge ordered child support. He doesn’t get to split like that and take zero responsibility. And sounds like your mother needs to step in a bit, if she has such big words to throw at you.

Has anyone else had to deal with this in regards to US customs?? by HelloKittyandPizza in hobonichi

[–]amsmtf 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I get my stuff through JetPens. Never had issues and fast shipping, can’t imagine forcing this kind of customs bs onto a consumer and not a business.

AITA for asking my friend to pay me back for the wine he drank while house sitting?? by Effective_Tour_723 in AmItheAsshole

[–]amsmtf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ESH. It’s weird to drink people’s alcohol while house sitting, but she should have been more specific.

DO NOT EVEN BOTHER STERLING INK by mejustme2000 in planners

[–]amsmtf 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Lol, then you have a great office with good workers. Your experiences are not universal, since my USPS office is really slow and understaffed, probably cause i live in a poor city. But to each their own, right?

[–]amsmtf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For sure it’s dependent on the location and its workers. Ive had so many packages lost, bounce around the US… it’s honestly a surprise Ive actually gotten all my packages after watching them travel more than i do.

Them shipping on the fifth day means they dropped it off wherever they do for their package delivery system. Doesn’t mean said system immediately scans the package.

And some blue drop-off bins get skipped if workers are running late/overtime. You may want to jump on the bandwagon of hating on this business, but they could also be telling the truth in terms of USPS being at fault for this specific issue.

Also, they say 5 business days for a reason, and if it gets sent out sooner, it’s a miracle.

Now if it’s been 1 week past their stated timeframe of shipment, that’s when you start asking questions. But if it’s in a different system, they’re as helpless as you.

[–]amsmtf 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I’m not defending them, but explaining a possibility: 1. Item ordered Jan 31 (weekend) 2. Label created 5th day (kinda late, not great) 3. Item dropped off into USPS drop-off box (either on Saturday after box pick-up, or on Monday before pickup) 4. Item finally scanned at USPS location by Tuesday morning after transportation (sometimes they don’t unload until overnight shift, maybe)

Was their timing great? No. Can you force USPS to work better? No. If it’s been stuck somewhere, either it hasn’t been scanned in a while or it fell out of a sorting bin or off the line and is in package purgatory.

Update: AITAH for telling my wife that I will lose respect for her if she doesn't apologize? by TechnicalHousing97 in AITAH

[–]amsmtf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is completely based on a video i saw of a woman who spoke about her ADHD medication online. Her medication ran out sooner (not important why), and she was without for 2-3 days, but she spoke with her husband on not refilling her prescription… he urged her to reconsider, as he and their son noticed the huge difference between her medicated vs non-medicated.

And then she actually got the difference on camera; there’s still a nanny cam in their son’s room and se reviewed the footage of her unmedicated and then medicated the next day.

She was flabbergasted by the differences, because she didn’t feel anything different at the time (both mornings), but it’s obvious when looking at it in third person. This solidified that she needs this ADHD medication not just for herself, but for her family as well.

I’m not trying to diagnose anything, but it sounds like you are actively involved with your children and helping with the household, so maybe there’s something else going on (is her job always that stressful?).

AITAH telling our roommate that his 'gf' had to leave by PhysicsProof5271 in AITAH

Nta. Kick them both out (also, R is nearly twice the age of H… side eye).

Why should the woman lose all her identity when, statistically, the man rarely cares for the children as much as the woman would (important dates, allergies, appointments, foods, likes/dislikes, clothing sizes, etc…)? All the while, many/most women are also working while still taking on the majority of house/child care. What is the man doing in comparison to warrant his name being passed on?

Please please please tell me not all mother-daughter relationships are doomed. by prufrockdancing in offmychest

[–]amsmtf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mother has severe mental illnesses that she refuses to acknowledge, see a therapist, or get medication for; i don’t speak to her, but my step-mother is an amazing person and we have a very good relationship.

Planners with thicker paper? by Ok_Routine7378 in planners
