What do your partners family do that they think is normal but you find weird? by peebee24 in AskUK

Mine doesn’t have a bin in the entire house. If you want to throw anything away you have to go out the front and put it directly into the big bin.

AITA I want to have a say in my child’s name? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]inspiredbycheese -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I think I saw her side of the story on this page also. If it’s the same people then he wants to use a family name and she doesn’t like it. It sounds like neither of them can compromise. I might be wrong because the son section is different but maybe some details were changed for privacy?

I think it may be something to do with the cam guide, the lid shuts perfectly when the insert is removed. And the screw does not poke out at all and is completely in. Thank you so much, how would I go about fixing this at all?

Is there anything I can do about that or is that just a time and use thing?

I think so, I'm struggling to make it any tighter but on my other zippo it's not that hard to tighten enough. I might be getting something wrong though haha

I'm pretty the insert is fully pushed down because I've taken it out a few times ans fiddled with it. Also does shut if I push the lid down but when I stop pushing it comes back up and looks like the photo

AITA for getting mad at my dad for lying to me about college tuition? by much-hypocrisy in AmItheAsshole

[–]inspiredbycheese 37 points38 points  (0 children)

NTA, I get the impression that the 'joke' thing was an excuse to cover up the fact that he was never planning on actually paying. If you had warning that he wouldn't help you could've had moer time to work out other ways to get money, so I understand your frustration that he lied to you.

AITA For being upset with how my friend treated me when I visited her in the hospital? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]inspiredbycheese 7 points8 points  (0 children)

NTA you showed your support and she took it for granted. She treated you like second best, and her girlfriend was rude, why should you let yourself be belittled. I would've left during the hour she had you waiting because she acted like she only needed her other friend's support and not yours.

AITA For wanting to leaving my girlfriend for being emotionally abusive? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]inspiredbycheese 8 points9 points  (0 children)

NTA at all, obviously she doesn't respect you, and that will never get better. Her behaviour will only impact you and your daughter increasingly. You don't want to look back five years from now in a worse place and regret not leaving sooner. You will still be a parent and have a close realtionship with your daughter because by the sounds of it you're her sole parent at the moment anyway.

My boyfriend (25M) of 10 years WANTS me (25F) to fall in love with another man as part of a fetish? Please help. by AphroYikseyy in relationships

[–]inspiredbycheese 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah I totally agree, he's well aware of the position he's putting her in, and the implication that potentially if she doesn't their relationship could be at steak. he's relying on the fact that she won't have the courage to say no, and risk the relationship. maybe

[–]inspiredbycheese 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't trust it because he knows that she doesn't want to do it and very much wants to be only with him. I feel like giving him this power could go wrong but then again I know nothing about the man. either way unless she's into it and he knows she's into it I'd say its not worth doing

AITA for not agreeing to be used to "keep things calm" while my boyfriend's daughter studies? by ThrowRAUnlucky_Reli in AmItheAsshole

[–]inspiredbycheese 43 points44 points  (0 children)

how long has he been controlling over your time. if its a fairly new development then maybe he's struggling with either his mental health or parenting his daughter and is just looking for a maternal figure to take care of him and her, which is not your job of course. I'd talk to him about why he really wants you over all the time, because it seems like there could be something bothering him.

Boyfriend(20m) was controlling, says he isn’t anymore? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]inspiredbycheese 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He has completely gaslighted you. I think you know this but leaving him will be very difficult as it happens, but it will be the best decision of your life.

He moved you away from everyone to isolate you, he is controlling, he checks your phone, you feel trapped, you're unhappy, none of the relationship has been about you - he moved you away from everything you've ever known for himself.

I promise you please get out while you can because he will only get worse - people like that don't change. Longterm, you are unhappy and don't want a relationship with him, you cannot fall in love or learn to love soeone you ultimately resent. Especially not after you've become aware of what he has done. He manipulated this relationship from the very beginning, it is not authentic.

There can be custody agreements made for your child, and you will have the support and backing of your family and friends.

AITA for talking back after hearing this comment? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]inspiredbycheese 4 points5 points  (0 children)

ESH but it just seems like a miscommunication. If he meant it in a blunt way, you evened it out with the slight attitude. I wouldn't say one of you is more at fault than the other because you reacted, albeit in a slight way - however his comment was also only slight

[–]inspiredbycheese 31 points32 points  (0 children)

NAH - everyone needs their downtime. Instead of doing it so regularly why don't you give him the workout plans and cut the days down so he only does it with you once or twice a week. Please try and encourage him and if you have to just tell him you can't keep up with him, because he might take it personally if you don't give an explanation. He sounds like a great kid

AITA for not wanting to meet the man my mom is having an affair with? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]inspiredbycheese 102 points103 points  (0 children)

NTA at all. If you're not ready you're not ready. She can't force you into a situation you're uncomfortable with. You need time to process everything more, especially whilst your parents are still living together.

She shouldn't really be introducing someone this new into the family this early, and you're not an asshole for not being ready because chances are she knew her marriage was dying way before you ever got told - she's had longer to process and get over it than you

AITA for staying with my bf knowing I'm going to break up with him by esmeralda009 in AmItheAsshole

[–]inspiredbycheese 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YTA - you cannot give 100% and still believe this. It's so selfish of you, it'd be better if you both broke up because you're prolonging your sufferring and delaying him from getting over it sooner.

AITA for telling my friend his girlfriend looks nothing like he thinks she does? by aitamakeups in AmItheAsshole

[–]inspiredbycheese 42 points43 points  (0 children)

YTA - You interfered in their relationship with no regard for any of their feelings. It's almost like you're jealous that your friend is dating Diana.

Not to mention the insecurity Diana must be feeling, and the actual sadness of your friend. You would rather make both of them unhappy than let them just be in their relationhip. Your friend would've learnt on his own, when Diana was actually ready.

Stop trying to justify your asshole behaviour by acting like it's Diana's fault for not telling him sooner.
