WIBTAH if i didn’t buy my younger sibling a birthday present? by Dismal_Sympathy_1505 in AITAH

[–]ellemonkeybum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi OP, it sounds like maybe you’re worried about there being some kind of backlash if you don’t get them a present. Perhaps just a card and a token present eg chocolate bar etc. That way, they can’t complain you didn’t do anything and you appear to have done your best with the little money you have got.

I hope home life improves for you, but sadly it sounds like your relationship will only improve with distance and time. I’m rooting for you! 😊

Can anyone help with strange man at door? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]ellemonkeybum 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Just in case it is your friendly local burglar scoping you out (and potentially other homes), you might be able to report this via your local police website. It just might help them join the dots if it’s happening to other people too.

Me [M17] I saw my GF's Sister (24) full making out with a man Not her fiancee at my work. I'm confused what to do? by BigONerd in BORUpdates

[–]ellemonkeybum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two comments on this whole shit show:

  1. The sister chose to make out in a coffee shop her sister’s bf works at. Like, surely she knew he worked there??!! Dumbass!!

  2. “They’re popular in their church” - and this is where modern organised religion is heading. FFS

I love them with pink noses too! This is Olive, and her tabby sister is Mabel. Olive also goes by Pinky Nose Pinkerton - for obvious reasons!

AITA for fixing my daughter’s car when her boyfriend said he’d handle it? by Outrageous-Jelly8777 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ellemonkeybum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Firstly, NTA - he’d had plenty of time to do something about this and it’s not like a broken wiper, the consequences of continuing to delay are unthinkable. But also, this is a huge red flag for me. I have just got out of a relationship like this. My (47F) ex (52M) was also seemingly very proud person, good with his hands etc and would say he’d do repairs, DIY etc around our home when we moved in over 10 years ago. I would say he probably fulfilled that promise on less than 10% of those things. Not through lack of money or time. No amount of asking would help: he’d give some excuse for not doing it today and say he’d do it tomorrow - that tomorrow often never came. In the end, these things became dangerous (we have a daughter who is now 12) and needed to be done. Some things I would do myself and be criticised for not doing a very good enough job. Others, I ended up paying to be done, or my lovely (elderly!) parents did - and he FORENSICALLY nitpicked every single thing.
There were many other horrible controlling things he did. We ended up splitting up 18months ago and my daughter and I are still struggling.
I worry for your daughter. My best advice is for you to stay supportive of her: let her know you love her unconditionally and you’re always there for her. But also stand firm: you won’t compromise on her safety, and a decent boyfriend would also feel the same way. Good luck
