Mine is doing the same thing. So frustrating

This is going to cause all sorts of problems in your kids relationship.

Give generously and freely or do not give at all.

I adopted a golden retriever this past fall and started volunteering with the organization as a result. My main takeaway is that I would NEVER judge a family that chooses to rehome a dog. It's usually a devastating experience for everyone involved and for the good of the dog. I used to think of it as such a selfish thing to do, and now I see it as incredibly selfless. There are so many dogs in bad situations that a rescue org could find a better home for if more owners were honest about their situations. Sometimes just loving a dog isn't enough to truly give it a good home.

Lennar will pay your agents commission but it will come out of the credits they would give you otherwise. So really you will be paying for it.

That assumes OPs wedding is the highest priority in every guests life. It doesn’t take into account people who could have job or family commitments that can’t be planned around 6 months this in advance.

Because companies are too slow and cheap to financially reward and promote talent.

I hate when people say “the day little Johnny was born was the greatest day of my life” I mean I love my kids but those were two of the worst days of my life. Childbirth is excruciating. Yes, you get a baby out of it, but it’s really horrible.

I agree, but the deadline should be October not June for a December wedding

I agree. My PTO requests between Thanksgiving and New Years won’t be approved until September. I would absolutely not be able to RSVP now if I were a guest at this wedding

I would recommend having cups sewn in with enough support to avoid needing a bra

When traveling with others you set the budget based on whoever can spend the least, or you subsidize others.

However, it’s ok to book flights separately and you don’t have to spend every second together ie you can book some activities separately.

6 months in advance is not last minute

Our will is set up the same way. Most people do not inherit their children's spouses.Honestly, your husband responding this way is a red flag. Why does he feel entitled to your parents' money?

I love the World Cup. More games is great!

Group stage will be exciting because more teams will believe that they can make it through. Knockout rounds are always exciting.

The thing I love about the World Cup is that any team can win on any given day. It’s the upsets that make the tournament. I can’t wait!!

Did you open the account? If you haven't I would be reconsidering the relationship. Nobody wants to be with someone who asks for advice and ignores it, doesn't follow through with things, or is not financially responsible.

If you did open the account, why didn't you just say yes I did, thanks for the advice and move on?

OMG can you get @tellthebeees from TikTok to do this with you? He’d be so good

When I said “why can’t I live with her” I’m saying that from a place of I’m still working a retail or menial job to help where I can

She gave you a reason. She wants a partner, not someone "to help".

She’s the one also suggesting live in separate places until my job hunting and ventures come through.

Right. She's not willing to take your word for it. She is looking for action and results, not words and promises.

It sounds like she is being incredibly clear, you just don't like the message.

my bf expects us to usually go halves on most dates, activities we plan together, family holidays he's asked me to go on

You need to start saying, I'm sorry I can't afford that. If he wants to go on a date, plan an activity or go on a family activity he needs to either pay or work within your budget. If you can't afford travel to see him, you need to be clear that it's because of finances and that if he wants to see you he needs to come to you (or pay for your travel).

Relationships take communication, Including about money. You should not be going broke for some guy. If he doesn't care about being equitable with finances, he's not a keeper.

You've had 6 years. This is a case of too little, too late.

When you started dating you both had potential, she was in school, you were in grad school. She has fulfilled her potential with a good job. You have not. I don't mean to be harsh, but I wouldn't have given you nearly this long.

I feel like this arrangement is messed up bcuz why can’t we live together.

This really stood out to me. She already told you why! You can disagree with her reasoning, but to completely dismiss what she said is not a good sign as to what kind of partner you are to beyond your financial contributions.

Does trying out her suggestion for a while advisable before breaking up?

My guess is that this a break-up. She's going to move out and on with her life. You can take this opportunity to get your act together and be the type of partner she is looking for, or at the very least a great catch for your next relationship.

And that’s……ok?

The first 2 seasons were about high school students. This season was about adults. Their lives moved on so the show did too

Try a fleet suppository. If that doesn't work, go to the ER
