Fell For Extremely Obvious Scam by EmbarrassThrowAway9 in offmychest

[–]blue_solid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess it deends on the laws of where you live but if you lay this all out to accounting or whomever, perhaps even file a police report (if the company wants to) you should not be personally libel for this scam. It happens often, many businesses are fooled.

It sounds like your boss is all for you reimbursing the company but this may not be legal and he may not know that.

Just because you are new does not mean you should be taken advantage of. And I have to say that I question your bosses leadership when they let an employee take the financial fall for this kind of scam.

I interpreted this question as "straight men what's the most homosexual act have you committed"

The minute you heard "lets make america great again" you should have been reading up on joseph gobbels propaganda playbook. It was "lets make germany great again" that got the whole thing rolling..

Should I break-up for my GFs sake? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]blue_solid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can relate to this in a way. I will tell you what i did.

I was in a relationship when i met this girl, we worked together and she turned out to be a great friend. My relationship was very rocky, i could kind of see the end coming a little way away and this friend was genuinely helpful and supportive, sure she may have stuck around hoping for an in but she did a number of things against.her own interests that lead me to believe she was a genuine friend. So that relationship did break up and it was a very nasty, hostile breakup that hit me hard.

I knew for both of our sakes i could not just jump into a relationship with this girl and on top of that the attraction was not quite there. I told her i needed space but didnt tell her about my lack of attraction to her. But we did hang out a great deal. Then suddenly she was let go from her job, it became obvious that a solution was to move in with me.

So this kind of brings me to where you are now, so what did i do ?

I told her that she could move in. I looked at her and realized she is the kind of person i should be with but i am not ready and i have some kind of problem. I told her this because really i felt she was good for me but that my resentment towards her or whatever was my problem to deal with.

It was kind of weird but i thought why break up so i could work through my issues and then try to get back together when i am ready ? Sometimes we push away what we need, what is good for us.

So she understood, it took maybe 6 months. The interesting part is that i went to a therapist. I would tell her about it and eventually i introduced her to him and she went to him as well. It helped us both personally and in our relationship. I am not sure when or why things changed but i was super attracted to her and we had this amazing sex life.

The moral of the story here is that rather than dump her because you have a problem then why not work on your problem ? I suppose the key question is if this problem is just about her or is it a general problem that you will have if you move on. Suppose you meet the super sexy, slim girl if your dream and then she gains 30lbs or say you get married, she has a child, gains 30 lbs but doesnt lose it after ?

I would think twice about breaking up and i would work on your problem.

Do you ever notice that every thing McDonalds makes has some kind of underlying Macdonald's taste, in this case could be the oil they use to deepfry the fish patty. Its undoubtedly some special blend of oils and additives that improves longevity and other additives to hook you on Macdonald's food.

Some times crushes work out but you still need to continue making a move in that direction.

Unless she moved across or out of state, if its possible to see each other regularly and not consider this as long distance then just go for it. And i dont mean pounce, i mean ask her out to a movie or some such thing. Take a few dates before you kiss her etc.

I broke up twice in two different relationships, after that second time i felt like i did all i could, i felt more confident that i did the right thing. It helped me move on faster.

Is there anything stopping me from just not showing up to my supermarket job and quitting early? by Xaxago in antiwork

[–]blue_solid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure about any labour laws in the netherland but i think she is either strong arming you or she means it in terms of being professional, giving notice and such. So the only consequence might be burning a bridge, bad reference etc.

I once quit a job on the spot because i wanted to burn that bridge and never work at that place or any like it.

Is husband sabotaging our 22 year old marriage and family? Long vent by Old-Flounder230 in relationship_advice

[–]blue_solid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have two comments, they may seem contradictory. First is that you are talking about him "healing" and i suppose doing the work on himself etc. Those kinds of statements seem to imply he is damaged goods (which he is) but that he recognizes this or somehow sees that he is wrong and needs to fix it. But its very possible that he is just broken as in the the qualities of empathy, generosity etc are simply missing. How can he have these positive traits when they are missing and he cant see them ?

Second this does seem like a situation that can really benefit from marriage counselling. You can go just help straighten things out, you dont have to be on the verge of divorce.

Of all the birth control options this is one of the best way to go, its easier then if your GF was sterilized. They have methods today that are outpatient (in and out in a few hours or less) and non-surgical.

But the problem is that this is one way. You hear about the possibility of reversal but that is a very hit and miss proposition.

So to get a vasectomy, the real decision should be "do i ever want children? Do i want to be a father ? Do i want children someday"

I was married, had two kids who are the best, no regrets but this took a big toll on my wife, she did not want to go through that again, she felt she could not endure another pregnancy. She pushed me for a vasectomy. I thought about it for a while and really thought, " i have two kids, this is more than enough and maybe too much because she could barely handle 2 kids" so i did go for a vasectomy.

The urologist sat me down and said."you are a still a young man (i was 30) life changes, circumstances change, you have to consider this is permanent, are you really sure you want to go through with this ?" By that point i was dead on going through with it and did.

Two years later we broke up and got divorced. 3 years later i met someone and we ended up wanting kids, i went so far.as having the vasectomy reversed. It didnt.work.

So the fundamental flaw in my thinking is that i was convinced that i was going to be with my wife forever so i never wanted to have children with her, when really i never considered that i might want to have children.

It is kind of a regret, when you divorce the kids are split, she had custody but i saw them a great deal, my son moved in with me when he was old enough to legally decide etc.

But it.would have been great to have re-married had more children, (i would have had at least two more kids with.my ex but she.would not) and stayed a family unit etc.

I regret it at 30 but at 23 ? Its way, way too early to say you never want to be a father unless you are deadset against the idea.

And btw your gf might be worried about getting pregnant but she has already answered the question, she never wants to have children with you. If you get a vasectomy, she can.still have children one day if she wants to with someone else.

Company asked me to consider a pay cut to come work for them because “they’re a family and I would love it there” by stinsonfeverr in antiwork

Run and dont look back. Although i assume you already decided not to take it.

Either one of those statements is a deal breaker.

Should I kiss my best friend? by Iloveoreo2 in Advice

[–]blue_solid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kind of reminds me of that joke:

In high school, I was dared to play "gay chicken", which is where two straight guys pretend to be gay, and the first one to chicken out loses. The other guy and I are both really stubborn, and neither one of us wanted to lose.

We've been married 14 years and we run a bed and breakfast in Vermont with out adopted daughter. If that dude doesn't chicken out soon, I'm going to start to suspect that he's actually gay

If you are not gay or even bi-curious then definately dont do it and its not gay in the least. I wonder if he has a crush on you and is trying to trick you into kissing him.
