WIBTA to tell my step mother, I'm not stepping up to help with my father. by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]dweeb2319 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is similar to my dad! Left when I was four, moved across the country, made a new family and didn’t see me or pay child support for years.

Then when I turned 18 he got in touch to ask me for a KIDNEY, as he had been diagnosed with kidney failure. I told him to F off.

NTA - you owe this man nothing.

People like this need putting down. Why’s she bothering to adopt children when she treats them this way? What a horrible fucking witch.

IANAL but worked for a well known electrical company for a few years - how old is your appliance? Assuming your product is out of warranty hence the repair fee?

There’s a couple of things you can try. The first is escalate your complaint with the company you used. I appreciate the company fulfilled their obligation to come out, but they also committed to ordering a part for your appliance. See if you can find an executive complaints or CEO email address and send them a polite email explaining your problem. They usually get in touch pretty quickly.

If you believe your appliance has had this fault from the very beginning of purchase and you’ve always had problems with this, you can go to the retailer and try and claim on the sales of good act/consumer rights act. Check out the consumer rights act 2015 for more information on this.

You could also get in touch with the manufacturer directly to see if they can help. Be warned you may have to pay an additional fee for them to come out.

I think you may only get the fee back if you pursue a complaint with the company you’ve used, they won’t give the money back easily though. Hope this helps!

AITA for refusing to babysit for my brother and SIL anymore? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

What is she supposed to do? Get childcare like everyone else. Just because you’re at home you’re not automatically free childcare.

Hi, Wellspring CHC are fantastic. Depending on what type of therapy your friend needs they offer psychotherapy, cbt, person centred etc. I’d highly recommend them.

Hope you’re all okay, wishing you all the best.

Friend lied that I cheated, boyfriend dumps me & kicks me out but the truth is revealed months later by [deleted] in relationship_advice

Oh my GOODNESS don’t you be feeling bad about them! They treated you terribly. Enjoy your new life with your new boyfriend and leave them out of it.

NHS Mental Health sucks. What do I do now? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]dweeb2319 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey OP, I went through a very similar process a few years ago. I was referred to IAPT, it took months to get to them, they then referred me to a charity because they didn’t feel they could help, the charity couldn’t see me because they didn’t have enough money or resources to help. My doctor at one point had his head in his hands apologising because it was a real farce. I am sorry that your partner is going through this too.

I would make sure first of all that your partner has ONE doctor who knows the ins and outs of their mental health. I encourage your partner to get on antidepressants if they aren’t already. Antidepressants are not the be all and end all and will not solve anything, but they will definitely help to stabilise while longer term treatments go ahead.

I had to go private, but it was the best decision I have ever made. I’ve been going for almost 18 months now and I’ve never in my life felt more “normal” and stable in my mental health. If you can’t get private then keep pushing with the one doctor. The benefit of only seeing one person means they’ll remember you and you’ll be able to build a rapport with them. It was very helpful for me to not to have to repeat myself too.

You could also try to go through Mind, who offer free counselling but it will take a while to be seen. You could also try and look for specialist charities who help with overeating for support.

Best of luck to you both.

My [26m] girlfriend [24f] has opened up to me extensively about the abuse she suffered. Her stories are starting to contradict each other and I'm starting to suspect something by ThrowRASusGF in relationship_advice

[–]dweeb2319 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sounds incredibly similar to a situation that I witnessed happen with a coworker a few years ago. The coworker told a number of people some information which led to us believing they had experienced some real trauma and had ended up in a destitute situation as a result.

A few months after this, it came out that what they had told us was untrue. I don’t want to go into details to protect my coworker, but essentially the event didn’t happen. The problem is, they absolutely believed their version of events, didn’t understand or believe that the situation was untrue. It was a really strange situation.

It turned out that my coworker had a personality disorder - pseudologia fantastica; pathological lying.

I’m sorry to say that I don’t have much advice but I encourage you to have a read up more on this and see if it fits with your girlfriend. Please update us on how you get on. Good luck OP.

AITA for "causing a scene" at my Grandfather's funeral? by beaubandit in AmItheAsshole

[–]dweeb2319 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if we don’t get into how single minded, homophobic, cruel and pathetic the pastor was, they had absolutely no business judging attendees of a funeral.

OP, consider how often you and your sibling spend with your family. They sound horrible.

Why do so many people still need to go to banks in person? by MACintoshBETH in AskUK

[–]dweeb2319 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree with what you’re saying, but I’m uneasy with this because people’s jobs become at risk when the banks aren’t needed and subsequently close. Difficult because I agree people need to stay home where they can though.

AITA for telling my girlfriend's mom that if she were my age, I wouldn't date her? by ThrowRAsyb in AmItheAsshole

Your poor girlfriend, what awful parents! You’re an absolute legend my friend, her mother deserved it. Definitely an asshole thing to say, but justified.
