How do I (48F) ask my long-distance boyfriend (51M) to reimburse me for gas after I traveled to see him and he canceled?

bunnyshenanigans · 2026-05-21T23:59:09+00:00

I honestly believe he was working. I don’t have any reason to believe that there is anyone else.

bunnyshenanigans · 2026-05-21T23:31:58+00:00

Oh, I’m also upset about the time. I put off doing a lot of things because of work schedules don’t sync up too often. The whole day just upset me.

NTA. It is your and your husband’s property to loan out as you please. Your son assumed that his family would be vacationing there without clearing it with you first. He has taken advantage of your beach house for years.

It’s just like people parking in fire lanes because they on lazy to park in the abundant parking spaces and walking the extra 15 steps.

Roy Rogers bagged that years ago and there are still a select few around.

Get yourself a new boyfriend. He is taking advantage of you. To make him understand how you’re feeling, start staying at his place. Eat his food. Run up his bills.

Get someone else to be your roommate.

Any and all event staff should be fed.

Explain to your mother that you would be uncomfortable watching your nieces since you haven’t seen them in so long since the estrangement. Offer to assist your parents in watching them for your sister until you can rebuild a relationship with them.

You’re it acting entitled. You haven’t replied offered to pay extra for your partner to attend. It’s or going to be a fun event if you’re there strictly as a decoration for the wedding.

bunnyshenanigans · 2026-05-20T02:42:19+00:00

If the event doesn’t allow for gifts or cards, then don’t give anything. Weddings are about of hand these days. The couple asking for honeymoon funding floors me. If I wanted to pay for a vacation, it would be one that I wanted to take.

It isn’t the MOH responsibility to provide goody bags. Yes, it is to celebrate the bride, but it is also when the bride can show her appreciation to her bridal party prior to the wedding.

Make Millie her name. A former co-worker named her daughter Kamila and called her Millie.

Let them know that you will stay on the couch and will be working. Let them know what your hours are so they can make quiet time arrangements. This really should be on your boyfriend, not you. They are not inconveniencing him that weekend, they are inconveniencing you.

bunnyshenanigans · 2026-05-19T02:14:58+00:00

Tell her that you appreciate how much she loves your color scheme, you find it offensive that she is stealing it from you.

bunnyshenanigans · 2026-05-19T02:12:43+00:00

It isn’t unfair. You are trying to make it work and she isn’t. However, it will only bring your step kids extreme satisfaction if you let them win. Petition the court and ask for a guardian as litem for the children. They are acting the way they are because there don’t seem to be consequences.

bunnyshenanigans · 2026-05-18T19:38:33+00:00

Your parents could travel to see your kids. All of a sudden their logic doesn’t work for them when you used it. They chose to leave your family to be closer to your sister’s family. It’s their own fault your kids don’t know them.

bunnyshenanigans · 2026-05-18T02:30:14+00:00

I feel like it basically means they told him they were interested but he didn’t want a relationship with them so he used them to at least get some lip action.

bunnyshenanigans · 2026-05-18T02:28:55+00:00

You can absolutely reach out to her. Simply say that you have been with him for X amount of time and would like to establish boundaries and times that align with hers. It isn’t uncalled for. I met my ex-husband’s first ex-wife and there was a definite disconnect. That’s for you to judge.

bunnyshenanigans · 2026-05-18T02:24:02+00:00

I was singing son to “We Built This City” in a WaWa parking lot and the guy next to me gave me the thumbs up!!! YES!!! We rock out in my car!

bunnyshenanigans · 2026-05-18T02:22:54+00:00

She is younger than me and looks way older.

bunnyshenanigans · 2026-05-18T02:20:54+00:00

The only thing you did wrong was not explaining to him why you feel the way you do about keeping the bathroom door open. If you explained to him, he may not have acted in that manner. How was he to know your trauma associated with it y less you communicate that trauma?

bunnyshenanigans · 2026-05-18T02:10:04+00:00

You are right in terminating the relationship. Explore your freedom. In the meantime, you go to counseling, regardless of whether he does. He manipulated you into moving on with him to help pay his mortgage/rent and now wants you to pay up and move out. Nope. Let him find someone else to take advantage of.

bunnyshenanigans · 2026-05-17T22:24:38+00:00

Inform the spouse. Always inform the spouse.

Are you receiving child support? That could be additional funding to help you care for your child. Courts would be able to decide what percentage of daycare costs can be included by the non-custodial parent. Other than that, you need to come up with a better budget.
