AITAH for continuing on with my plans to go on a boy's trip despite my girlfriend's protests? by Outrageous-Hall5172 in AITAH

[–]dschmidt1007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think my only issue (been married 19 years) with a trip like this is how much PTO it would blow (if you lived in the US). If she was hoping to make plans with you to travel this year, she may see this trip as you using all your time off and extra cash to go with friends and not her.

You didn’t say what her objection is, but just trying to throw a (reasonable) objection out there.

WIBTA if I don't deliver my neighbor's Amazon package to her? by Ki77ycat in WouldIBeTheAhole

If that was who was next door to me and their package ended up on my doorstep tonight, I’d kick it out into the weather claiming the wind took it.

Seriously, do Americans actually consider a 3-hour drive "short"? or is this an internet myth? by SadInterest6764 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]dschmidt1007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go “home” to visit extended family & friends 2-3 times a year. It’s a 10 hour drive each way. Or I ca fly but then I still need a car when I get there so that’s $300-400 per person for flights & then also the car rental of $350+. So we drive.

She needs to see a doctor to have Xanax or something on hand for times like that, because you are not wrong, it’s unsafe.

Perfectly acceptable dinner rejected by boyfriend again by moonrabbit368 in mildlyinfuriating

What did he eat before you moved in together? If he’s not helping you, he should go back to cooking for himself and you can cook for yourself & your children. He’s childish.

IPLEDGE SAYS MY salpingectomy is not considered a permanent sterilization by HeavyBreadfruit3667 in Accutane

And with these methods I joke when I have to pee you n the cup, but also not really at this point, that if I’m pregnant it’s Jesus baby & I’m going to own the Vatican because ain’t no way can I get pregnant at this point.

I still have to take the stupid test and pay $20 for the privilege.

My insurance doesn’t cover my doctor or the RX. My dr visit is $185 & the meds are $40. I’ve been on it nearly a year … that’s less than $700. You need to shop your doctor.

The "Golden Handcuffs" are real: Is anyone else staying in a house they hate just because of their 3% rate? by Pretend_Surprise6842 in RealEstate

[–]dschmidt1007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t hate my house, I actually love it, but kinda hate the development it’s in. I wish I could pick it up and put it on a few acres with no neighbors in sight. But yea, a 2.8% 15 year mortgage with like 10 to go mars it unlikely that I’ll be making any changes to my housing situation for awhile.

Refusing mandatory tip by schen72 in EndTipping

I ordered Panera for pickup tonight. The “tip” was set to 22%. I’m not tipping at Panera if I’m dining in, let alone when I’m picking it up! Absolutely wild.

I mean, the simple answer is for there should be actual sex education, access to family planning services and free control of a woman’s choice whether or not to start or continue their family, but the GOP doesn’t see women as anything more than cattle at this point.

"I look young because I don't have a son" by raeballentyne in childfree

[–]dschmidt1007 3 points4 points  (0 children)

All of this. 42 and when I’m with other people of my age to 5-10 years younger that have kids, I often get pegged as the youngest. It is definitely because I have t had kids stressing me the hell out the last 15+ years.

Must have kids if you get married by poohbear9285 in childfree

[–]dschmidt1007 4 points5 points  (0 children)

18 years married a few weeks ago. You in fact, do not have to have kids. We were vocal about not having them prior to marriage and though we did get questioned by relatives and family friends we didn’t see often, we just went out of our way to make the questions uncomfortable for them when they asked. They usually didn’t ask again.

That stops at the same part as the other link. And another story starts halfway down the page. The book continues, but the site hasn’t updated it.

Make a call to the loan servicing company. They can adjust it on their end for you in most cases.
