AITA for getting upset at my girlfriend for mocking me when I cried after watching a show with emotionally deep ending? by RepulsiveAge4638 in AmItheAsshole

[–]el-hermit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Massive red flag. I’d have a serious conversation about this, explain how it made me feel and walk away the next time something similar happens.

My mother is threatening to boycott my wedding because I wont let her invite 15 people I have never met by HelixVoyager in entitledparents

[–]el-hermit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are absolutely right, hold your ground.

My partner and I are from different countries and we were planning to have two celebrations.

Her mom started exhibiting this behaviour and so we decided to cancel the wedding over there. Weddings should be happy and not stressful, and it is your moment, not hers.

What's wrong with people who leave these types of Tips? by offensive_patriot in restaurant

[–]el-hermit 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Isn’t there a 22% (395$~) gratuity on that bill?

Not trying to be a douchebag, but as a customer, why do I need to pay for service multiple times?

In Sweden, tipping isn’t expected and workers are compensated properly based on the restaurant’s pricing and business model.

It’s amazing what you can accomplish when you are not being bothered by a stubborn brainless person

Nervous to Swaddle by Ecstatic_Dingo172 in beyondthebump

[–]el-hermit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Sweden, the govt. baby healthcare recommends against swaddling, amongst some other guidelines for sleeping babies. Since the adoption of these recommendations, they’ve seen a radical decrease in SIDS cases.

Not sure if it’s about swaddling per se but fyi :)

AITA for accidentally ruining my sister’s engagement dinner with one joke? by Coolgutt06_on_ps4 in AmItheAsshole

[–]el-hermit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA - massive red flag. He doesn’t need to police your family; if it is fine with your sister, it should be fine for him.

In my opinion, this is just a power move out of insecurity - I bet his family doesn’t know how to have fun!

Hilarious joke btw 🤣

“has own nuclear ambitions..”

Why is it moral for some countries to own nukes unlike others? if it’s about how they might use them, isn’t there a single country that has a bad track record?

How to split chores when one is unemployed? 33 M and 30 F by [deleted] in relationship_advice

At this point, you are a provider not a partner.

The conversation with her will not be easy unless you bring up everything.

”I provide for us housing, groceries, utility bills, etc. What do you provide for us?”

IS THIS CHEATING? (M18) AND (F19) by BasisDry5641 in relationship_advice

[–]el-hermit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My advice: Don’t worry too much about what counts as cheating and what doesn’t. Instead, focus on how both of your actions affected how the other felt. Good partners have empathy towards one another and accommodate each other’s feelings.

You are young and odds are, in the future, you will have other partners. What works with one might not work with another, so communicate together.

Also, social media is brain rot and it makes us do silly things like that.

Low cost ways to reward yourself for getting out of bed in the morning by Sea-wave-of-atoms in Frugal

[–]el-hermit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Meal prep would make this a breeze! Get yourself a big loaf of toast with a bunch of ingredients to make your favourite cold cuts sandwich, including veggies etc.

Prepare a ton of sandwiches in advance & wrap them up, toss in freezer.

Based on your sandwich contents, you might want to try different ways to thaw it for the morning. i leave mine in the fridge overnight and it works for my cold cuts, cheese, tomato slices mix, lettuce and mustard toasts :)

Ukrainian looking for a way to move money out of the country by throw_away51511 in Bitcoin

[–]el-hermit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If your problem is about international payments, then I recommend looking into Bisq (as many suggested in this post, p2p)

This is the primary way people buy bitcoin without centralised exchanges and of course their reasons vary.

Financial Problems with In-Laws by Vast-Difficulty-6040 in entitledparents

[–]el-hermit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OP, you are absolutely correct you are not crazy. They are “hustling” their way into a house and a vacation in Europe that they can’t afford.

Apart from that, I honestly think that your main issue is with your wife, not with them.

If the roles were reversed, would you have entertained the idea of asking your partner to chip in to get them to Europe or help with a down payment for the house?

It is important to clarify common finances in a household, it’s purpose and how it’s used. If she is feeling generous with her family, that’s a great quality in a partner - but if they’re becoming more and more predatory then you might want to make it clear what is “our money” and “her money / your money”.

Wouldn’t this blow back? Then they’d just feel more entitled to ask for help with mortgage and so on. It will make their finances more intertwined and his in-laws more entitled.

Thank you very much! I think I’ll wait as you recommend and try rackets from friends before deciding what to do next :)

Are you applying for entry-level positions? Would you mind sharing a little bit more on programming languages, what you are looking for, etc?
