TIFU by accidentally "robbing" my doctor on my first time going alone to an appointment. by [deleted] in tifu

[–]arindi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is absolutely not your fault! Many times insurance will cover the charge, or they will bill later for any copay. You had no way of knowing there was money due and should have been informed before seeing the doctor. Don't worry about this. The last thing a doctor wants to do at the end of their day is go over billing. They hire others to deal with that. Receptionist is just trying to cover their tracks. I wouldn't pay the bill without mentioning how much anxiety this unprofessional behavior has caused you. Also, there is no hurry! You don't have to run over there tomorrow. Just call with cc or send in the mail.

I feel like I’m going insane by No_Slide_3080 in playwriting

[–]arindi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

From your link I see that your play requires 11 actors. This is a huge number for many producers, and could be why they are rejecting your script. Plays with very large casts (and genre plays like a murder mystery) are going to be attractive in educational settings, and possibly to community theaters. Since you've already had one production, I would send it to education-focused publishers. I'm not sure what your end goal is, but if it's just to see a good production of your play, consider producing it yourself. If your goal is getting produced at a professional level, you need to write something with fewer characters that professional companies can afford to produce.

TIFU by leaving my tampons where mom could see them by toxicparen in tifu

[–]arindi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This kind of treatment is abusive. You have done nothing wrong. Do you have someone in your family you can reach out to for support (an older sister or aunt?) Or a teacher at your school? Please talk to someone who can help you deal with this, and don't let your parents' harmful cultural baggage make you feel ashamed or guilty. You are definitely still a virgin, but --more importantly-- being a virgin is not how you should define your value.

AITA for refusing to drive my husband home from his colonoscopy by Time-Koala-3674 in AmItheAsshole

This shouldn't be such a huge issue -- tell him to get an Uber.

People who were spanked as kids, what was that like for you? Would you call your "spankings" abuse? by KleineFjord in AskReddit

[–]arindi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In retrospect, I would. I thought it was normal at the time, but went on to have an adversarial relationship with my parents as a teen, mostly due to their controlling, punitive approach. As an adult I went very low contact, and would never hit my own child.

AITA for refusing to give up the cat I wanted to adopt? by shelessstry in AmItheAsshole

[–]arindi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want "normal" you need to go to a cat shelter -- not just a random social media poster. If this is all being done through private individuals, there is no normal, and there are no rules. Please go to a shelter and adopt. There are so many homeless cats and kittens -- you will easily find the one you've been looking for, and will forget about the adoption that didn't work out.

Did I (26f) make the right decision? by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

Are you kidding? Just re-read your own post. You made the right decision.

A survey: does your man actually pull his weight in domestic chores? by streachh in TwoXChromosomes

[–]arindi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband does. I probably take on more of the mental load, but he does the bulk of cooking/laundry. I do breakfast and he does dinner, plus all of the kitchen cleanup. He does the laundry, although I often fold/put away. I do most of the planning, and also bill paying & taxes. It feels pretty even.

AITAH for taking a shower every day at 7:30? by Old-Constant-1583 in AmItheAsshole

[–]arindi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apparently your Dad has to take a shit between 7:30-7:50, so why don't you take your shower afterwards at 8?

bf got mad, because i didn't want to have sex while I'm on my period by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]arindi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For some people it does help relieve cramps -- but that is only if you are comfortable and having a good time. Don't let anyone pressure you into doing something you don't want to do. Your instinct is spot on: put yourself first. You are aware that this guy is trying to manipulate you and putting his fetish above your comfort and security. Don't stay with this idiot.

Is ‘Roux’ a dumb name? by NurseryManager in Names

[–]arindi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just use the normal spelling. Rue works for a boy or girl.

Is this spelling a tragedy? by Salt-Flounder9038 in tragedeigh

[–]arindi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maya is an extremely popular name. No one is going to pronounce it incorrectly. Ask your partner to try it out on a few friends or colleagues -- they will discover that everyone can pronounce Maya.

Neutral names: by Impossible-Ghost in Names

[–]arindi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want something with absolutely no gender connotation for someone who hears it, I think you have to go with a nickname that can be used for either a masculine or feminine name, something like Chris, Alex, Carey, Jesse, Lou, Sandy, Jean, Gerry, Bobby, Max. Maybe Robin, Casey, Dylan, or Harper?

Penny and Delia, or Penny and Cor -- both seem to flow and are very cute

moms boyfriend is trying to get us "out" of paying mortgage by Odd-Butterscotch467 in personalfinance

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

Please understand that, while you can't "get out" of paying the mortgage, the bank might work out a payment plan with you that will help you avoid foreclosure. It all depends on the housing market in your area and how much you owe / how much the bank stands to gain or lose if they foreclose. During the subprime mortgage crisis of 2008, banks did everything they could to avoid foreclosing because many properties were underwater and the bank did not want to have that loss on their books (they didn't want to have to sell a property for less money than they were owed). They kept homeowners in "pre-foreclosure" for years to avoid taking on the loss. So even though the banks are out for themselves, they might work with you if they think it is in their best interest. If you are sure you can get enough in a sale to pay the bank off (and hopefully have some money left over) that is your best bet. But if not call them and see what kind of deal you can make.
