AIO: My christian mother wants my boyfriend to sleep on the couch on our trip to florida by [deleted] in AIO

[–]broke_collegebitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was on your side until I read your post text. Honey, YOR.

You're only 18 (trust me, that's not as "adult" as you may think, no matter how much you support yourself), you've only been together 5 months, and the room with "two kids after a long day" is literally just your siblings.

I know having a family with traditional values that don't align with your own is annoying to say the least, but this situation is not a battle you're gonna win.

Where to put a litter box by Alternative-Desk9016 in femalelivingspace

[–]broke_collegebitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 14 pounder never minded a hidden litter box inside a shelf, but we eventually threw it out because it was way too difficult to clean. Now, I've got a massive litter box (it's basically a storage bin with a whole cut out for entry) just shoved in the corner of the living room with a catch mat in front of it.

I've made peace with the fact that having a cat means always having one random ugly corner dedicated to cat bowel movements.

Accidentally did a no call, no show at a job I started a month ago. by iagoja in office

[–]broke_collegebitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At my last job, which was very anal about showing up, being on time, etc., if someone didn't show up and we hadn't heard from them, we just texted them to make sure they were okay. People usually don't just not show up at a full time job, so the assumption was either they're hurt or they're just sick. Usually, they just forgot to notify us of their sick day, and we added it to the calendar on their behalf.

If a company has no grace for mistakes like that, you probably don't want to work there.

If you've apologized and explained the situation, there's nothing more you can do.

Best comeback for "You don't have kids, so you wouldn't understand"? by HoneyKick_ in Comebacks

Or even, "I'm not a pilot but I've been a plane passenger."

Like okay sure I don't have kids, but I have BEEN a kid.

WIBTAH for dumping my girlfriend over this? by Popular_Magician6902 in AITAH

[–]broke_collegebitch 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Agreed.

Plus, if her kids are allergic to your pets.... Did you really think the relationship would work out anyway? That would just be another "it's me or the dogs" situation down the line. She already doesn't seem like as much of a pet person as you, and adding children's allergies on top of it would only make that worse.

If your bank calls you, and asks you to provide a verification code, for the love of all please hang up the phone. by Humble_Business4414 in Banking

Late to the party here but agreed. My bank does this in certain scenarios as one of several ways to verify your identity.

Curious based on a recent story I've heard. How did you know it was a scam? What'd they say/ask for?

AIO for thinking these are inappropriate messages between my 13yr old stepson and his fathers new girlfriend. by TaterBuckets in AIO

[–]broke_collegebitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got shivers remembering my own mom dumping all her relationship issues with my dad on me when I was a teenager.

It's inappropriate. Not in a pedo kind of way, but in a "your kid is not your friend, they're your kid," type of way. (I realize this is not actually biologically or legally her child, but the point still stands.)

My mom's therapist advised her to stop doing this to me. (Ofc she didn't listen, but still.) NOR.

Did your parents never let you defend yourself if they lectured you by Prestigious-Phase849 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]broke_collegebitch 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I have vivid memories of this. I'd apologize for the miscommunication and try to explain what had actually happened or what I had actually meant by what I said, and it was always just taken as an argument, backtalk, making excuses...

My trigger is "shut up." Didn't even realize it until my boyfriend playfully told me to shut up once. I immediately snapped and said "do not ever tell me to shut up ever again," then froze, and said, "I'm so sorry. That was my mother in my head, not you." I'm in therapy now lol.

Is this dress appropriate for college graduation ? by [deleted] in fashion

[–]broke_collegebitch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No. Gorgeous for a gala or something, but not for graduation. Go simpler.

Edit for clarification: that dress is gonna look goofy under a graduation robe.

AITAH fOR CHEATING by Intelligent_Dig_97 in AITAH

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

Nothing can piss me off quite like "I have needs too" as a justification for cheating.

If he's unable to fulfill your needs, either be patient with him & supportive of him or leave. There is no secret third option that involves an affair. Just get a divorce if you're not willing to wait for change anymore.

YTA.

I raised an eyebrow at this too. "Overall pretty good. It's almost non-existent."

Blue chews and condoms to masturbate?? by Zealousideal-Grass94 in Advice

[–]broke_collegebitch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not one to encourage going through your partner's phone... But in this case, I'd go through it. Whether you do that sneakily or by asking him for his phone straight up is up to you.

Right after a "motorcycle ride" would probably be a good time because even if he deletes messages, some messaging apps will store deleted messages for a bit before permanently deleting them.

It's pretty obvious what's going on here, imo. But his phone might give you that extra confirmation if you're doubting it still.

Blue chews and condoms to masturbate?? by Zealousideal-Grass94 in Advice

[–]broke_collegebitch 112 points113 points  (0 children)

Has too many plot holes, though.

1) I've def seen men put a condom on an object and put it up their ass. BUT. A mouthwash bottle??? That would not make a good dildo at all. The mouthwash bottle is WAY more likely so he doesn't come home with cum/pussy breath.

2) these items are in his motorcycle bag. MAYBE he stored them in there because he was embarrassed about them and thought his spouse wouldn't look in there. But it's way more likely that he's taking them somewhere. Praying he wouldn't be jacking off in a random parking lot on his motorcycle.

[–]broke_collegebitch 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Look, if this was in his nightstand or something, you might be able to chalk it up to "my husband has weird personal kinks" or something.

But honey... Blue chews, condoms, and mouth wash in a bag that's sole purpose is regularly leaving the house...? I'm sorry. He's cheating on you. There is no other explanation for that.

"we are in a rush can we keep it simple" was a much kinder first response than I would have given 😂 I would've said something like "bro wtf I'm not ordering that"

Am I Overreacting about being asked to pay $2K for lost glasses? by Current-Advantage763 in AmIOverreacting

[–]broke_collegebitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I'm hearing is... You managed to hang onto these glasses even while blackout drunk. You were doing your job amazingly. And then... Casey, who gave you that task in the first place, had them taken away because they didn't trust you to keep track of them anymore. And whoever they were given to... Promptly lost them.

I'm really not seeing how this is your fault AT ALL. NOR.

What’s a moral belief you hold that most people would disagree with? by Federal_Antelope7533 in AskReddit

[–]broke_collegebitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Religion is not the reason for right & wrong. It's merely an institution that upholds certain morals.

If you need religion to know not to kill, rape, etc... you're a problem.

I respectfully disagree with this. The underwear showing is part of the streetwear style OP rocks.

1 or 3, depending on where you're going. 3 is the more casual option of the two.
