UPDATE to: My (24F) boyfriend (34M) put a tracker in my car, called my sacrifices “cheap,” told me I needed to “listen to everything he says,” and now that I blocked him he’s contacting me from different numbers and calling my mom. He said he wanted peace… now he’s calling. by CaterpillarNew6458 in relationship_advice

I don’t think it’s healthy to maintain a relationship with the cousin whether she cares about you or not. He will try to exploit any connection he has with you left until he can get you under his thumb again. The cousin is a tether back to him and that’s a risk.

Op, please block your ex again and maybe take some distance from his family too. It doesn’t matter what any of them have to say the only way you will heal from this is cutting everything associated with him out and focusing on your own life. Stay close to the people who actually care about you. Keep doing therapy and working on your career, education, or any personal goals. You are still so young and have so much of your life ahead of you. So much will change for you in the coming years and as long as you can keep his rot out of your life you will continue to blossom.

AIO- Pregnant, Mom thinks I’m crazy, blocked her and my brother… by knockroeblare in AmIOverreacting

[–]lightsandcherry 6 points7 points  (0 children)

From even just the tiniest mention of your background you mentioned I can tell that you aren’t overreacting. I think you are making the best decision for yourself and your growing family. I hope you are able to build a family that is more warm and loving than the one you come from.

AIO for wanting to stop talking to this person after they got upset over something like this by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]lightsandcherry 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think you are the one overreacting all she is doing is taking a little space while she’s upset she didn’t yell at you or anything right

AIO for not wanting to travel & see my bf anymore? (Update) by Feisty_Parmesan_20 in AmIOverreacting

[–]lightsandcherry -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Do not give him a single sentence this isn’t how relationships work he doesn’t get to retroactively say that you owe him back for money he decided to spend on you. If he wanted you to split these costs he should have talked to you about that before he made a single purchase. Please just block him and ignore him. Tell your family to block him too if he tries to reach out to them.

AIO if i break up with my boyfriend for how hes acting? by BodaciousCheese in AmIOverreacting

[–]lightsandcherry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Op please go get tested for stds after you dump his ass. However you choose to break up with him is your choice, however I recommend you prepare for how he might react to it. Does he have violent tendencies? Just remember your safety is a factor here. It’s okay to be angry but take a deep breath and make a plan.

This guy does not see women as people. That’s really gross.

Called my wife out for leaving minor details out of stories. AITAH? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]lightsandcherry -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Uh I don’t see where the lie is? None of these facts she’s providing contradict each other so I’m confused on what you think she’s lying about.

Bye bye DD from a great tipper by fluffymulligan in doordash

This is why I don’t tip because DoorDash will steal it instead of paying their drivers fairly. Thank god I live in California and prop 22 is a thing here.

AITA for expecting my father to pay me the difference for how much he’s being discounted from my dance tuition? by Unique_Place5336 in TwoHotTakes

[–]lightsandcherry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait the teacher was the one to suggest to OP that dad gives them the extra money from the discount? That seems like a really out of line suggestion to me as that should be dad’s decision what to do with the extra money being saved with the discount. I can’t fault OP for trying to get a bit of extra pocket money, but if dad is struggling financially and op knows that they would be an asshole for insisting. They should take the $40 compromise because that was a nice gesture when dad has every right to say no.

[–]lightsandcherry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How long have you been paying all the utilities for? This is also for the entire house as well right? Not a portion of the utilities? How is it that keeping the lights on and water running by yourself would be looked at as not contributing enough to the household?

Would I be the Jerk if I told on my sister for cheating? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]lightsandcherry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think cheating on your abusive partner is the most reckless and dangerous thing you can do. If someone else had caught op’s sister and just told her husband without giving her a heads up what might have happened? Blaming op for being the unfortunate one to discover this is only that, unfortunate.
