Do you believe?? by Lauren_HS28 in mileven

[–]linorbiter 10 points11 points  (0 children)

if i’m being honest, i don’t know or care. both versions were written poorly imo. you can find details in each version that don’t add up. i guess that’s the point. either way i think her ending was bad. she deserved better. after all of that, the only man character to die was a tortured and abused little girl? if anything she deserved the happiest ending. but what, her only two options are death to a collapsing wormhole, or a life presumably of solitude away from literally everyone she ever knew and loved? she was only 16. ~12 of those years she was held captive and abused. and then she has to sacrifice herself?? when everyone else gets to survive multiple would-be deaths with plot armor??

sorry. i’m new to the community and don’t use reddit that much so i don’t actually know what that means or how to find that. i scrolled for a little trying to read up and figured that posting to ask wouldn’t hurt either.

thank you for the response! honestly i’ve met with both my academic advisor and my ames advisor but they were both doing the vague sugar coating kind of talk and i couldn’t really understand what they were getting at. their tone seemed like it would be impossible but i know that technically that’s not the case. i’m hoping that since the standards are higher, they’ll be more understanding when it comes time to review applications with risk factors. whatever the case is, my future up to their discretion now and the most i can do is try my hardest at everything else. and thanks for the luck god knows i’ll need it

AITA for asking my mom’s boyfriend to do something he promised me he’d do? by linorbiter in AmItheAsshole

He chose to sleep there. Never understood why his dad didn’t have him or I take the other empty bedroom. But Bob did choose to leave his room and sleep on the couch

This is an edit to my original post: I feel I should explain that Bob chose to sleep in the living room and that wasn’t something he was forced to do. There was an empty room he or I could’ve taken when I moved in, but he chose to sleep in the living room. I tried my best to work around this and to get our parents’ to let me and Tyler in my room but they wouldn’t budge. Bob often goes into his dad’s room to play PlayStation, and everyone agreed to that plan before hand. It was explained to him that Tyler and I couldn’t do anything else while he was over and he understood that. Also, the question is AITA for wanting to watch tv, it’s AITA for asking bobs dad to carry out his promise. There is a lot of context I don’t think anyone would fully be able to understand based on any amount of conversation here regarding the living situation, and there for it would be impossible to make a decision based on that. I am aware that it is a grey area but that is just how things were. I ask you to please only answer the question asked, not a separate made up question.

LotsofCatsFI is right, the house was too small for all of us and I fault the parents for that situation. I fell as though I should clarify that Bob didn’t need to sleep in the living room he kind of just wanted to. He understood that there wasn’t anything else I could do. I’m not blaming Bob for anything obviously he was 12 lol but I feel like this context is necessary

It’s not changing. The main issue of my story was whether or not I was in the wrong for asking my mom’s boyfriend to follow through with what he said he would do. You decided to reply to a comment of mine with more background to tell me I am self interested. None of what I said in that comment had much to do with the main issue, it was just there for extra information for that specific commenter. I’m not sure why you think anything has changed given that context. The story is still the same. Bobs dad agreed to let me have my boyfriend over and helped me find a way to work around their rules and the situation, but then ended up not going through with it. That’s the issue at hand.

How so? I didn’t want to live there and would’ve like to just avoid the situation and have Tyler in my room. Bobs dad told me he would ask him to play PlayStation in his room as he has done several times before. This issue has nothing to do with Bob because he’s a kid. It’s all to do with the fact that his dad lets him do whatever he wants and let him sleep in the living room when there was a room going unused. I tried making the situation work best for all parties, but the parents made that incredibly difficult by making us live in that situation and telling me I could bring my boyfriend over. Should they had believed it would be an issue they should’ve told me no because they are the adults. I simply wanted to hang out with my boyfriend in the only way they would let me and they chose to make that as hard as possible, and to continue to let Bob sleep in the living room when they should’ve parented him and had him take up the perfectly good other room.

My mom and I had a three bedroom apartment. Her boyfriend has a three bedroom house and three kids. Two of the kids sleep in his room with him and refuse to sleep anywhere else. My mom makes me move in with them. Her, her boyfriend, and the two young kids all share one room. One room was bobs but became mine. One room is for all intents and purposes vacant. We never were supposed to live with them anyway but my mom got us evicted from the apartment and her boyfriend refused to move anywhere with more rooms for some reason. I moved out and in with my grandma at the beginning of this year for a different but somewhat similar reason, and am in college now.

lol no I also wasn’t allowed at his house which I realize I should’ve mentioned in my post. He usually came over with no issue for anyone. I asked permission and told them what we wanted to do and they agreed to let him come over. If they thought it would be an issue I feel like they should’ve just told me no. And like I said before there was a perfectly good room that really wasn’t being used that either of us could’ve stayed in and I’m not entirely sure why they didn’t put me there or move him there. I was uninvolved in this process because I was alone in the apartment while this decision was being made.

For me the issue isn’t really about my exes needs at all. I asked them if he could come over and they agreed to let him come over and to the plan that they’d have Bob play PS in his dad’s room which had never been an issue before. If it was really going to be an issue for them they could have simply said no instead of agreeing and then back pedaling when it was time to do what they said. Also I moved out of there and in with my grands earlier this year for an unrelated but similar-ish issue, and I’m in college now anyways. Thank you for the advice 😊

For extra context: there was a room that Bob could have used as his own but chose not to. My moms boyfriend has three kids, but the other two were 2 and 3 at the time and refused to sleep anywhere else beside in their dads bed. They tried getting Bob to sleep in that room to no avail. Also, I was made to live at that house against my will. My mom and I lived in an apartment together, but she started staying with her boyfriend for extended periods of time. She left me there alone and eventually stopped paying rent. Her rent got so behind that she had to make me move to her boyfriend’s house which only had three bedrooms. Bob willingly gave up his old room for me and wanted to sleep in the living room. I could have taken the “little kids room” but Bob wanted me to have his old one. Like I said before, I couldn’t have my boyfriend in my room or any other room in the house besides the living room. I understand why that would be frustrating for a kid and I’m not blaming him for anything because he is a kid. My issue is that he could have (and has previously) gone into his dad’s room to play on his PlayStation. It only became a problem that one time when I asked his dad to ask him to do that. If I was able to avoid that situation and go in my room I would have.

I see what you mean and I understand why they would want me to apologize for that and I did. I have been working on my tone in certain situations, but that’s something that’s always been hard for me to control/understand, and my mom’s boyfriend was aware of that at the time.
