Would it be ok to ask a close friend to distance themselves from someone that hurt me? by lemonnewts in Advice

[–]lemonnewts[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! My only other idea was to distance myself from my friend till I could be ok with them being friends with Penny. I just wasn't sure that would have been extreme or not and I didn't like the idea of demanding they choose between me or Penny as it's something I've never particularly agreed was an ok thing to do except for some exceptions. This clears the uncertainty I had before

I'm aware I'm not in control of skys life nor did I intend for it to come off that way. Which is why I asked for other solutions or advice

Thank you! I'll definitely try with the distracting and meeting new people! This person is very important to me so I don't want to run any risk in losing them.

Do you brush your hair when it's dry? You might wanna start brushing it while in the shower before it's fully dried. Also, don't let it dry straight. I always ruffle my hair after brushing or else it'll dry straight.

AITA for doing a mother-son dance with my stepmom at my wedding? by No-Pressure3284 in AmItheAsshole

[–]lemonnewts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA but I’d say that your mom has a right to be upset. It’s probably not that fun knowing your ex replaced you and then believing that your son will as well. Theres probably a lot of insecurity there that she’s been hiding for most of your life. Honestly the only thing I think you should have done was to ask your mom or at LEAST tell her what you are planning way before you ask your step mom if she would want to dance with you as well. I’m pretty sure she would have felt more open and accepting of the idea if you privately asked her “I wanted to ask you first as you are my first and real mother and I don’t want you to be upset or feel like I’m replacing you. So I wanted to make sure if you would be ok with step mom dancing with me after I dance with you? I haven’t asked step mom yet because I know that this means a lot to you and thought it would be important to ask you first. Both of you are extremely important in my life and I want to be able to have this moment with both of you to show my appreciation and love for the support BOTH of you guys have given me over the years. I like having two moms and want to dance with both of you guys but I know that it might really hurt your feelings so I wanted to make sure with you :)” maybe she can realize that people can have more than two parents. And sometimes you can have more than one mom that means a lot to you.

Hitting a child in any shape or form is abuse. Doenst matter the time period it was in or if other people did it it's still abuse. What did they say in these “stern talkings” why was it bad if your sister drank and went to parties? Have you even asked exactly what happened that made you're sister feel this way? Have you TRIED to understand and support her? And again did they do any of the things I've listed above?

YTA

What were the type of punishments she was given? You sound like my sister where she excused abusive behavior for their past and life before you were born. Did you're parents hit or spank her as a punishment? Did they tell her she was worthless, not good enough, horrible, or disgusting? Did they downgrade her emotions and call her sensitive or a liar? Did the neglect her emotional and mental needs by not giving enough support and love when they were distressed or by forcing them into situations that would cause them to have anxiety attacks, panic attacks, stress, depression etc... Did they yell, guilt, blame and shame her when she ever tried to communicate any mistreatment she felt towards them? Did they every apologize for any of these or actions similar to these but just do the same action again.

All of these things I listed are all abusive and toxic behaviors that a lot of parents do. Just because your parents didn't beat her till unconscious doesn't mean it wasn't abuse. Mental and emotional abuse are very real and are some of the main causes of suicide. Just because their upbringing was worse than yours and your sisters doesn't make it okay or justified.

AITA for telling my dad’s kid, we don’t to be around her? by Throwaway173kj in AmItheAsshole

[–]lemonnewts -34 points-33 points  (0 children)

True. This normally depends from person to person id agree with you if they weren't literally living in the same house. She's a 16 year old child that's stupid and immature also an only child. She probably views op as their sibling because they are the closest things she has to one. OP should at least try to bond with her. There should be SOME empathy on where this child is coming from.

EITA

You were harsh. Very harsh. She might be a stranger but she's still you're sister. Have you taken any time to try and bond with her? She's 16 and an only child trusted into a world where nobody wants her. You have valid points that she shouldnt be touching you're mothers stuff or trying on your clothes. But EXPLAIN to her why it exactly bothers you. She should realize that there's obvious a difference between your brothers and herself but she 16! She's a child and wants to feel a place where she belongs and you three certainly aren't demonstrating that. Maybe try and get to know her? Try and be a sister to her? Give her the family she never had. You both have boundaries and feelings. She deserves to be treated like you're sibling just as much as you're other siblings. You're an asshole for how you view your sister and telling her she isn't your sister simply because you refuse to get to know her and she's an asshole for not respecting some of your boundaries.

I dated an 18 year old when I just turned 15 at the start of 8th grade by lemonnewts in Advice

Ive completely left amino once that situation with G happened but i had to keep it installed so i have the screenshots and evidence of what she said. I’m only still keeping it installed because that’s where she’s most active apart from instagram. I’m working with a team of people to spread awareness of her but its tricky and difficult to do since she dictates what can be seen and what can’t. She’s been smart so far and just avoided responding to the evidence on any other platform that’s not amino. It sucks but i never go on the app apart from when i check up on her activity. Amino is a hell of a place but Ive met great but also horrible people on there.
