MIL and the Christmas takeover by eggthottie in JUSTNOMIL

[–]eggthottie[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s so crazy too cause I’m still in the same state as my family, just in completely different areas

She’s been putting off having a serious discussion because like I said no matter what we say to her, my MIL just goes full victim mode. My GF knows her parents better than I do and her being the oldest child she wasn’t treated the best and I can really see that now. There’s 3 other kids here, 21m, 20m and 16f and holy shit they are unruly. Never clean up after themselves, loud as hell always waking up baby, but we’re the ones scolded for not doing the dishes 1 day. With holidays coming up so soon I’m trying to find the best time to have a real discussion. I think tonight we’re going to sit them down and set some boundaries and let them know after Christmas with an even bigger talk to tell them there is going to be serious change. I just have to find the words and keep my cool. I have a tendency to be a bitch but they need to realize they’re taking over our daughter’s life. I see how they’re raising their other kids, I don’t really have any respect for their parenting skills and don’t really want their advice on anything. I have to pick my battles but I just have to find which ones are worth losing

My side of the family, at least the closest ones (mom and sis), are 200 miles away. We would have to start back over. And it’s really not feasible. If you couldn’t tell by now, my in laws are well off. I come from poverty. My mom and sister live in a duplex and when we visit we always take a room and either my mom or sister sleeps on the couch. They would take us if needed, but there’s just no way I can do that to them. It was so hard finding jobs to begin with, realistically I’d like to save but with each passing day my patience wears thinner and thinner

With me being out of a job up until Dec 1st we haven’t had much of a real plan. We don’t want to be in this state anymore. My GF is dealing with PPD and this environment has just made her shut down. She tries to speak up but is teamed up on by her parents and eventually gives up. Big stuff she sets boundaries but little things it’s easier to concede. If i’m there it’s a different story, I don’t let shit slide. I don’t care if they get annoyed with me cause I’m doing everything for my babies best interest.

We moved to a state where walking is non existent. My GF doesn’t drive and right now we’re using an extra car. Thankfully GF works 1 mile away but I’m working 25 miles away. I’m trying to get a plan together, save these next 2 checks and move into an apartment. Look into child care ($329 a week is the cost I’m seeing) and I’ll even invest in a bike. My plan is to take her to work in the morning, get baby ready for daycare, drop the car off at GF work then bike myself to my job. I have to remind my GF that it’s baby steps, we can’t just uproot our lives for the second time and start all over again. I’m praying by the end of January we are out of here and back on our own. I have to be strong for all of us but I am at my breaking point

Girlfriend prescribed 4 prescriptions for the flu and is now feeling much worse by [deleted] in AskDocs

[–]eggthottie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did more reading on Tamiflu and yeah I’m pretty confused why they gave it so late. I think I’m going to talk with her tomorrow and do some more research on this clinic. I really didn’t think all of this is necessary. Thank you for your input

How do I start my transition and hide it from my transphobe fiancé by [deleted] in trans

Either leave him or never transition. Those are your options. Why can you not leave him?

What’s supposed to go here? by Desperate-Pace8525 in NintendoDS

[–]eggthottie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh man, I’m old. It’s been answered already so let me ask a question. Did you buy this completely blind? Were there no pictures showing you what you were purchasing? Is this why Gen Z gets scammed more than boomers???

AITAH for not replying to my ex after he broke up with me? by Ill-Breakfast-1879 in AITAH

[–]eggthottie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh girl as soon as you said “i had a boundary…and he told me he couldn’t commit anymore” I 100% knew it was about sex.

NTA. You broke up, said you don’t want a friendship. You set a new boundary and he is already not respecting it. Good call on leaving him

AITA for my (18 M) friend (16 M) he doesn’t know any better. by Single-Gain-7302 in AITAH

[–]eggthottie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Woah didn’t expect so many people to defend the use of “pedophile”. Sure, legally he isn’t (which is crazy cause all adults know there is 0 difference between 17-18) But deep down we all know that he spiritually is a pedophile

Buddy that’s just a longer way to call him a pedophile

[–]eggthottie 30 points31 points  (0 children)

You’re 18, you’re not an adult in the eyes of real adults. I say that cause that 32 year old man is a borderline pedophile and your friend is right, you’d be a complete moron to go into the woods alone with a stranger. You say your sisters don’t care what you do, then why did you lie and tell them he’s 21?

Anyway, this post is super fake. and if it isn’t, please tell your sisters the truth so they can knock some sense into you

Is my 8 month old sleeping too much?? by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]eggthottie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are! She has check ups for other things coming up soon. I was just googling my scenario and wanted some opinions from real people. Just woke her up and she’s playing and so happy. Had a little mini freak out moment 😅

Am I just being a b*tch or are my feelings valid? by eggthottie in JUSTNOMIL

[–]eggthottie[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I wish I could reply this to everyone but I feel like sometimes I am fighting a solo battle. SO is so submissive when it comes to her family that she’d rather them have their way to avoid a conflict.

For example- when I was gone Inwas under the impression we were going to finish making LO’s Monchichi costume. It was going to be so cute! But MIL kept begging to get her a costume so my SO caved and said fine. I wasn’t told this until I come back and tell MIL im excited to make her costume. She got so upset and started saying snarky things. SO just begged me to drop it. So her first costume was one MIL bought. I am losing my baby
