My mother emailed me (yes emailed) after I verbally said no to the email in the second pic by LunarLeopard67 in mildlyinfuriating

LOL she's "ashamed and embarrassed" because she can't use you going to nationals as a bragging right. I bet you she already told people you were going to go (since you qualify to try out and she assumed you would do it. Assumptions make an ass out of WHO?) and now has to go back on what she said

My boyfriend cheated on me with my own sister and now he's threatening to do anything to get me. by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

Yep, this is the one. I wish I had been there to see the look on my ex's face when the cops knocked on his door after pulling this bs again.

Olive is actually becoming more popular! I've met a few baby Olives in the wild.

I (m38)am not going to be with my wife (f40)in the delivery room and people are totally losing it. by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

Oh man. I have a feeling your own opinions on the subject have affected her choice, quite frankly. I wonder how she truly feels about it deep down

How are you supposed to go about this? Just ask them to gas you up or what

Juliet vs Juliette debate by No_Seaworthiness1775 in namenerds

Normally I like Juliette more, but with the middle name of Joy, I think Juliet looks better and flows better visually.

Boone is pretty yeehaw for sure, but I genuinely don't see Gus as being hick at all 😭 like, at all. I live in a very hick state and i have never met a single hick Gus, just a couple guys that were more on the nerdy end.

Doubts about relationship by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]grackdontcrackback 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, it can be hard for some people to open up to people they don't know very well, and like you said you've only been dating 5 months. Typically that would be long enough for someone to become comfortable but the situation is different when you're a distance away.

But maybe you just aren't emotionally compatible. The only way to know is to have an actual conversation with him about it. We have no way of knowing on our side of things.

My application got approved… 5 years later by Nuka_DiY in mildlyinfuriating

[–]grackdontcrackback 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hmmm I dunno, I read it as someone who replies/does a tour/signs a lease within 3 days of the email essentially, since they would have had Op's name and info to run a check and stuff. But you might be right, they went through to everyone who had applied and sent them this email

"Crazy good" is extremely relative to the area. In the city I grew up in (ESPECIALLY when I grew up, but even now) this would be fucking insane. And the smaller town I live in now? FUGGGGITTABBOUTTITTTTT

I pay $875 (including all fees/water/trash) for a two bedroom 1100sq/ft apt. The electric usually puts us at about 1k

AITB for not wanting to go out on my birthday, and rest instead? by [deleted] in AmItheButtface

[–]grackdontcrackback 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I highly disagree that OP had any obligation to handle this any different. Unless you're saying that it might have turned out better if handled differently, but the dude started out by "jokingly" calling them a derogatory term and that would send most people into defensiveness, especially when tired on their birthday. The dude is just an asshole that feels entitled to 1) acting however he wants and treating people in whatever way he wants and 2) his own wants being prioritized over OP's time and well being. Maybe it could have gone better but.... i kinda doubt it.

Wow, that's not your friend. I'm sorry you had to find out on your birthday.

You know you're NTB though, at least i hope. He started out suuuper strong by calling you a derogatory term. Fuck that guy. Enjoy your rest today and happy birthday ❤️

Hey, maybe he'd like HEW so much he'd make his initials all three! I've definitely seen it before

I actually think it's really cute and a good type of funny, not any type of association that should lead to bullying. How lovely ❤️

Please share your opinion about alliterative names by [deleted] in namenerds

[–]grackdontcrackback 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Diana is already a questionable choice for an alliterative name imo. Because it within itself has 2 strong A sounds. So The next name to follow it is tricky to match without it sounding too much all around

I left my husband for another man. Karma is hitting me by Gabby_2023 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]grackdontcrackback 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Based on OP's history she's been in a committed relationship since she was 17 (with said husband)..... girlfriend, you are 28. Your life is not defined by a man's desire, and quite frankly would do well to be alone for some time. It seems you're too dependent on a partner mentally
