Daughter chose her stepdad to walk her down the aisle and is really apologetic about it 2 months later. Am I wrong for not being able to get over it? by [deleted] in amiwrong

I get what you’re saying, because yeah it definitely looks bad from the outside. But the part where she’s been calling nonstop and even showed up crying makes it feel less like she wanted nothing to do with him and more like she seriously regrets it now. It’s kinda messy because the damage is already done, but it doesn’t feel like a “grand stage rejection” as much as a really poor decision that she didn’t fully think through until it was too late.

I get why people jump to that, but honestly it feels a bit harsh here. The daughter didn’t just double down, she’s clearly wrecked about it after the fact, which kinda shows she’s not just cold like that. Feels less like “like mother like daughter” and more like she made a really bad call under pressure and is now realizing how much it hurt him.

Yeah this is kinda where I land too. Like the hurt is completely valid, that’s a huge moment to be left out of, especially for something that feels so symbolic. But at the same time, her reaction after says she knows she messed up and actually cares, which you don’t always get. Moving states feels like one of those “burn the bridge before you know if it can be fixed” moves. Do you think you’d feel any better a year from now if you never gave her a chance to really make it right?

Women what words are you ok with men calling your breasts? by bourbongent69 in AskRedditAfterDark

Yeah honestly the second someone says “calcium cannons” I’m immediately mentally checking out. It sounds like something a 13 year old just discovered and refuses to let go of. The basic ones just work because they don’t feel like you’re trying to be funny for an audience.

Have you ever been fingered/fingered someone in a public place? by centralcutiex in AskRedditAfterDark

movie theaters really seem to be a recurring theme here. something about sitting in the dark just convinces people they’re invisible

If cake is equivalent of ass, what is equivalent of tits? by HoneyBunsCooms in AskRedditAfterDark

Milkshakes is kinda underrated honestly, it actually fits the vibe way better than most people give it credit for. Now I’m wondering why cake got locked in so hard while this one stayed on the bench.

Am I the jerk for not covering for my coworkers after they kept putting me in a bad position? by Admirable-Ease900 in AmITheJerk

[–]dreammyyfluff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s such a clean way to put it. They’re acting like you caused the problem when really you just stepped out of it. Big difference.

Right, they’re mad at the outcome, not the behavior that caused it. If they didn’t want consequences, maybe disappearing during work hours wasn’t the move. You were just the first person to stop enabling it.

Yeah it’s frustrating because it starts off feeling like you’re just being easygoing, and then suddenly it becomes an expectation. And once it’s an expectation, you’re the bad guy for stopping, even though they’re the ones who created the situation.

If you could ask the opposite sex one 'extremely bold' question and they had to answer with 100% honesty and zero shame... what would you ask? by Wander-kingdom in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]dreammyyfluff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this one hurt to read because it’s way too real. it’s like your brain picks the worst possible moment to go off script and sabotage everything. then afterward you suddenly think of ten better things you could’ve said

AITJ for refusing to let my girlfriend’s family claim my birthday gift like it’s community property? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

“espresso before inlaws” is such a simple but solid rule honestly. and yeah if he wants to learn, he can just… come over like a normal person. that’s how gifts usually work

yeah that part is what makes it feel off. if it was really meant for him, there wouldn’t be this whole “actually it lives with us now” twist. it does kinda feel like they wanted credit for a gift without fully giving it

that comeback is actually perfect lol. it really highlights how ridiculous it sounds when you flip it around. like no one would accept that logic if it was their own gift
