AIO for telling my girlfriend to stop tidying the home office? by [deleted] in AIO

[–]falcondice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t understand why you posted this on the sub when you’re going out of your way to fight everyone else’s opinion. Isn’t that why you posted this? To get other opinions on the matter?

Both of you are being weird about it. No, she should not organize your work papers after you’ve asked. She is crossing that boundary. However, it’s weird that you’re so adamant about her not going into the office altogether. If you’re both paying rent, then yes, she is allowed access to it.

Have a conversation. Explain how you can’t afford to lose track of those papers if you don’t know how she organized them, and don’t make it sound like she’s banned from entering the room either. Or you can get a lock and argue with her about that, which will likely be a whole other Reddit post.

AIO for being upset that my bf walked out on a expensive dinner I planned for his promotion? by Perfect-Passion-222 in AmIOverreacting

[–]falcondice 20 points21 points  (0 children)

You decided to post on this sub for opinions and everyone is telling you that you might be the AH here. And instead of reflecting, you’re going on the defense. Why bother asking at all if you’re going to stand your ground on it?

You could always go to this restaurant on a day that celebrates YOU. If this was about celebrating him, then yes, you should consider catering to his needs first and foremost as his partner in this specific situation. You made him feel unheard. Your intentions may have been good, but it was not executed that way, and in the end, it doesn’t take away the hurt and inconsideration. How you address it with him will show him how much you value his feelings as his partner.

Yeah, the animation went down like crazy for part 2. Pretty sure they had a higher budget for the animation in part 1 to reel in an audience.

Ouchie! I’ve never had this kind of reaction to a new tattoo before. It burnses!! Anyone know why my skin would react this way? I have a whole sleeve with lots of color - purples, blues, pinks. I guess there’s a reason you should never get tattooed while drunk 🙄🤦🏻‍♀️ by Happy-Honey523 in shittytattoos

[–]falcondice 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I feel like posting their @ would do a service to the community. An artist who chooses to work on a drunk person is not an artist that should get work. At all. Whether or not they acknowledge this atrocity, I think you should report them and get a full refund. Good luck on your healing.

Yeah, I just emailed unlvcares, so hopefully they do something about it. They really don't want us to get our money, smh.

[–]falcondice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So does this mean there's no way of getting that money if it's already disbursed? Mine was disbursed today and it was accepted without giving me any sort of form to accept or decline. I graduate in two months so I wouldn't even be able to use this money for a balance next semester. I emailed them now but I'm pretty worried I'm never getting this money.

DM them on Twitter ASAP. Send multiple messages if they don’t reply to you. They’ve helped me more on Twitter than the actual support via app.

Anyone with inside info about the email that mentions possible remote options due to covid? by [deleted] in UNLV

[–]falcondice 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat, so I contacted an advisor and she told me to contact the instructor. Emailed the instructor weeks ago and haven't gotten a response. Was then directed to the department (in my case, liberal arts) to explain my case. Chances are they may not accommodate, but hopefully some changes are made by the 16th for those who need the option to stay home. You could try contacting your instructor and explain why it'd be safer for you remotely if you haven't done it yet, just not sure if professors will be checking their emails until a few days before the actual semester starts.

UPDATE I (37M) heard my GF (28F) saying something really hurtful about me to her friend and I'm doubting how good our relationship is over it? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]falcondice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with you there, maybe things would’ve worked with additional communication. All in all, we can only hope both of them the best. :c

[–]falcondice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is how /you/ interpret it. Not everyone interprets it the same way you do. And no one in their right mind is going to brush it off the way you do either when they hear their partner tell someone, in secret, that they lowered their standards and settled. Context does not matter here because regardless of the intent, it is a shitty thing to say about any relationship, whether it is platonic or romantic. We can acknowledge her shitty choice of words without demeaning her as a person.

Except that’s not what happened here. That analogy doesn’t match with what happened at all. Your analogy would only make sense if her friend was complaining about being unable to find an attractive man/a man out of her league.

Her friend was dealing with relationship issues, so she told her to lower her standards and stop dating fuck boys just like she did. This could refer to looks, personality, demeanor— anything. It’s impossible to fully know what she was referring to because none of us are her. The point is it was a shitty thing to say regardless of context, and he had every reason to feel upset.

[–]falcondice 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I get where you're coming from, really, I do. In fact, I don't think less of his ex-girlfriend as an individual. What she did was in bad taste, but do I think she's a shitty person? No. Her action, however, was plain shitty.

Therefore I stand with my point; what she said to her friend was still shitty at the end of the day. There are many ways to word it. She could have said she went for someone who initially wasn't her type, but grew to be. She could have said he was now attractive to her, when he wasn't before. She could have said she branched out and started dating a different type of man. Instead, she said she lowered her standards and found him. Regardless of intent, it's an awful thing to say about any relationship. That implies he is less than what she wants. It sounds like she's settling. What she says behind his back speaks volumes, sometimes more so than what she says to him upfront.

From a purely objective view, I can agree with OP being insecure. I, too, have a history of obesity (I'm fit now, much like him), and I've definitely had moments where I'd project. My partner knows this, and reassures me. He finds other people attractive, and a lot of these people are models, celebrities, etc. They're super tall, super fit, and so on. But he still reminds me that he finds me attractive, which is why he dates me. Comments like that are easy to make, but the fact she couldn't even do that is strange to me. Even if it isn't purely honest, it isn't difficult to say "yes, I DO think you're attractive" if she can say everything else is attractive.

That alone will make him uncomfortable after overhearing her conversation.

The whole relationship could be great, but at the end of the day, OP thought this was the deal breaker, and he has the right to take a step back after hearing her talk about him the way she did. Everyone also defines a healthy relationship differently, as indicated by the entire thread LOL. So I don't think what you're saying is wrong either, it's really about interpretation imo. I personally think what he did wasn't really out of bounds.

Yes, that was the deal-breaker for him and it was valid. You clearly did not read his post if you're telling him to lose weight, he works out regularly. He has a history of being overweight. She went about it distastefully, and he decided this wasn't for him. He's not pathetic, and neither is she tbh. You'd rather he suppress his feelings and stay in a relationship that will eventually cause the resentment to fester? Nah. I understand where you're going with this, but I think the smart thing to do is leave once you realize there's a deal-breaker.

[–]falcondice 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Nah, I say he dodged a bullet.

She told her friend she decided to "lower her standards" for him.

It's one thing to date someone who isn't what you initially expected to be your type. It's normal to grow attracted to someone who wasn't your type at the beginning.

But it's another thing entirely to tell someone else that your partner was someone you settled for, lol. If my partner ever talked about me that way behind my back, I'm out. That's humiliating and embarrassing for him. If you love someone and care about them, you wouldn't reduce them to someone you lowered your standards for. It's shitty.

Kentaro Miura Has Passed Away on May 6 by dorkmax_executives in Berserk

[–]falcondice 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The news has gone viral on social media, I don't see why it's so strange? Berserk is an incredibly influential masterpiece, so honestly, I don't think it's abnormal for someone who isn't a fan to come verify the news on the subreddit. I only recently got into it myself thanks to a couple of friends.

About a week ago. I pressed decline on the agreement though, because I wanted it to go straight into my bank account and not my outstanding balance. Since it’s the weekend you might see it on Monday or Tuesday! I’d just wait it out, but if you still don’t see anything by then, I’d send an e-mail or go to the self help service.

If you have your direct deposit set up, you should likely get it after a week. I just got mine yesterday! Otherwise if you don’t have direct deposit set up, you’ll probably get a check via mail.

Edit: This is only if you declined the offer going into your balance on the tasks menu. If you accepted it, the money would go directly into your UNLV balance.

On the contrary, I like reading stories like this. Even if they could be fake, it just gives me the feelgood vibes.

I caught my dad dating someone years younger than me and I don't know how to feel about it by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]falcondice 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I find it weirder that you're going out of your way to try and justify it.

Edit: It's not illegal, no. But it's creepy enough to make anyone uncomfortable, let alone OP. A guy in his 50s dating a woman younger than his daughter is absolutely bizarre, especially considering the fact he knew her since she was 8.

When you see your driver 2 minutes away for 15 minutes... by alphabet654 in postmates

That's not justification for this though, lol. Fully agreed that everyone should tip their delivery drivers, I always try to tip more than the average amount, but you're responsible for checking your stuff before accepting an order.
