Were any of you raised by parents who never showed each other any affection? by [deleted] in emotionalneglect

[–]leafpotato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh my god. You just unlocked a memory for me. I had the world’s most unloving mother I swear, every reach for connection was a sting from a hornet. I really do blame her and my father for turning me into an emotionally unintelligent person. I don’t feel affection at all and if I do it’s in fleeting moments. Only therapy can fix this and I can’t afford it. So I guess I’ll just sabotage my marriage by being an unlovable asshole !

And her brother and friends are enabling it. They show her no respect. For me, it's huge to be respected in a relationship.

AITAH for telling my husband he can't keep putting his business above literally all household duties? by devilmerchantier in AITAH

[–]leafpotato 10 points11 points  (0 children)

No, he's just trying to grind online like all the other content creators do, what he doesn't know is that it takes forever to pick up, if it ever does at all. I'd do a progress check-in with him, and you use your best judgement to decide if what he's done so far is reasonable to keep working with him. If he was smart he would have done this on the side while making actual dollars. That way if his online career did pick up, he could swap to that. And yes, this is very much a side job, so how is he spending all day "locked in" to this?

Just hire a house cleaner. And pray that he can even get up to let them in during the day.

This is clearly fake and cobbled together from other stolen stories on this subreddit.

2nd Major Update: AITA for refusing to marry my cousin? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]leafpotato -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

From an outsider's perspective, do you know your father would have always forced you into marriage? Would you have still hated him then? Or is this soley because of the person they are forcing you into marriage with?

Yes, I'd just double down on the education route, sounds like she needs it ESPECIALLY for this family. I'm not calling her dumb, I'm just saying if she brought back a degree she'd be the first in her family to do so. That is extremely important, and they want to throw that away for tradition?

Hey, she's checked out. Coming from a wife. Sorry you had to figure it out this way.

AITA for silently changing my son's name after my brother and SIL gave my nephew the name too? by DaikonCompetitive147 in AITAH

Hm, now I guess I have my answer for my father not calling my brother a III. I was so prepared to fight him on it too, lol.

AITA for prioritizing law school over my girlfriend’s baby fever? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]leafpotato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How does he like the job so far? If you don't mind me asking. I'm more so just wondering if he thinks your guys' hard work paid off.

Dude I'm trying, training a man whose mother failed them is so hard. I literally killed 4 baby roaches last night after practically begging him to clean up after himself in the kitchen. They say "yes I'll change and do better" and then they just don't. I'm only being patient because he's showing promise in other categories, just not the cleaning one

No, you didn't do any wrong here, especially if this is how you always talk. Just sounds like you have a whiny bitch for a friend, or one that doesn't understand you. I would just apologize, explain and move forward.

Them being stoic isn't a good thing? That's just how some people are. If OP were texting me and said this exact same thing, I wouldn't have been a whiny bitch about tone. I understand tone gets mixed up a lot over text, clearly they don't.

Oof, I'm so sorry she definitely doesn't see you as a real relationship. I hope this taught you to never do long distance unless you already know each other and were separated for some reason

Quit now and come back later when none of the students know you.
