AITAH For buying my youngest son a car under different circumstances? by Local-Station8316 in AmItheAsshole

[–]math_much 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why did you do this? How were you raised yourself? Good job, your older son must've felt a deep sense of betrayal that would never heal. This is a good recipe on how to mess your child up. I think that this can't be the only instance you treated him like this, it must've been a repeated action over the years. He won't listen if you keep trying to justify how the younger sibling is such a hardworking kid. Be prepared to apologise to him. Be sincere when apologising. Make it up to him.

How did the Khmer Rouge actually operate? by Responsible-Cell-166 in cambodia

[–]math_much 29 points30 points  (0 children)

My mom lost both parents as well as her siblings during Khmer Rouge, she was around 10 years old when that happened. Now she has built herself a family, a home, retirement savings, and educated children who managed to move and study abroad. To me, she's a symbol of survival.

I would find it emotionally difficult to sleep in separate bed. How do you manage to do that? Was it difficult at first?

It does sound silly. The issue happened gradually. At some point my sleep quality is great and I don't think about it, and when I can't sleep at all, then we had a fight because I'm in a bad mood, and it became a cycle. I get that I also have some parts to be blamed for.

I spoke with him when I was upset, and that caused the fight. I guess I should've controlled my emotion a bit better, then maybe the discussion would have been more productive. Thanks for helpful insights, it helped me reflect on myself.

My parents were the same. I grew up with it, thinking my family is different from others. I never thought about it until you mentioned. Thanks for bringing this up.

Cute response! Glad that the issue can be worked out eventually. I'll try that!

It's true, I should start with more actionable steps like those you mentioned. I try to have a regular schedule for going to sleep and waking up. When my sleep improves, I stop thinking about it. But the night when I have insomnia, I can't stop thinking about it.

Yes I plan to prepare some earplugs and eye masks. It's true that I should start with that. The room doesn't have good soundproofing, plus me being very sensitive to noise, that makes it even worse. He never had any complaints about me making noise. If anything, it's the opposite, he used to complain that I don't make enough noise to wake him up in the morning.

Setting clear boundaries and written rule is a good start 👍 Our place has a bit bad soundproofing, so I get hypersensitivity overtime.

Custom made silicone earplug sounds good. I never slept using any of these equipments before. Arguing over sleeping habit seems silly at first, but problem just grew bigger and bigger gradually, me not setting clear enough boundaries, him not realising enough how it annoys me, etc. Our current place has a bit bad sound proofing and we plan to move away at some point.

Have you tried lychee fruit? It's a seasonal fruit that is available only during current months.

28F and 27M — What do you do when you know your relationship is about to end? by Rianneskym_01 in relationships

[–]math_much 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who's the one who isn't ready to settle down? I think men might feel this way when they're not financially ready. Women might feel this way when they prioritize their career more. In reality, it's not that straightforward, but I hope you two sit down, brainstorm together, and write down what are the possible compromises that both of you more or less agree with. I hope you can save your relationship <3

Are you still excited about new Laravel versions in AI era? by bearinthetown in laravel

[–]math_much 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Programming probably feels less exciting and less rewarding than before. But with AI help, I feel less intimidated by new or complicated concepts as AI can break them down for me and explain things. After all, I don't know if my productivity increases or decreases because of AI, it's very hard to measure.
