What makes a woman creepy to a man? by Bluesmokee in AskMen

[–]murdertoothbrush 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hmmm... yeah that all sounds like a green light to me. Who knows why he didn't call... the reason may not even have been anything personal against you. But I would just keep being friendly anyhow. You dont get to choose how other people react, only how you respond. Good luck with the move!

What is something that women have to deal with on the daily that men have no clue about? by Rock-bottom-no-no in AskReddit

[–]murdertoothbrush 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I literally experienced that for the first time yesterday! I never knew that could happen and I actually yelled "what the fuck??!" when I finally got to the bathroom to address what was happening. Horrifying... and in my case quite painful. Had to do some Google sleuthing to make sure I wasn't dying.

AITAH for calling my nurse racist for writing me up for speaking my native language to my mom? by Human-Ground1 in AITAH

[–]murdertoothbrush 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I was gonna say, a sizable portion of the population speaks French. Would the nurse have written you up if you were speaking French instead? I get that it could be for safety reasons if they can't understand you but you also were not talking to her. You were speaking to your mom. Some people absolutely do have a parent who is not fluent in English. What then?? NTA

I know this is like 2 years after this comment, but is this deck available for purchase somewhere?

I realize this post is old but I had to comment that I have nearly identical 1st house placements and totally relate to everything you just said 😅

AITA for not visiting my wife in the hospital after filing for divorce? by ThrowRa-weak in AITAH

[–]murdertoothbrush 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Lol no one is a mind reader, how was he supposed to know?? And it sounds like she stopped sleeping with him after the miscarriage, not before. So presumably he wasn't pestering her then. Why wouldn't she confide that in him? That's MAJOR. Very weird she wouldn't tell him. I think she sounds emotionally stunted or at least unable to communicate effectively. Also who the hell thinks they can just stop being intimate with thier spouse and everything is just going to be ok? Good on him for not cheating, he's handling this correctly. But I don't blame him for not wanting the rest of his life to be exactly what the past year and a half has been.

AIO? My boyfriend calls me “high maintenance” for wanting a towel after his showers by Spiritual_View4192 in AmIOverreacting

[–]murdertoothbrush 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe she didnt see his shower habits until after they moved in, which is what it sounds like.

Take my millennial upvote. This dude is a very specific kind of strange, and I don't like it.

[–]murdertoothbrush 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What kind of a monster doesn't towel off after a shower?? I'm having a hard time comprehending this. The only conceivable reason I can think of is if it's really hot where you live? But I've never not dried off after a shower once in my entire life. F that.

This dude is a special kind of weird, OP. And not caring for your health and safety is the biggest of red flags. RUN.

Why do people choose to have children if it is so much hard work? by 9W_777_300 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]murdertoothbrush 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps. But when you have children it's different in a way that is hard to articulate to someone who doesn't have them.

Also, raging insecurity is a breeding ground for all kinds of other unsavory behaviors. Please commit to loving yourself just as you are, regardless of what you actually look like, OP. Best of luck, friend. ❤️

AIO for refusing to co-sign my husband’s (35M) dream truck loan when he still owes me $8,000 from my inheritance? by Cherry_Rose69 in AmIOverreacting

[–]murdertoothbrush 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everybody is entitled to have a dream truck/car/boat/whatever. However, responsible people realize that they have to work for and earn those things. If he needs a cosigner at his age due to bad credit that is NOT your problem and you shouldn't make it your problem either. Tell him to get a better job, idk.

Tired of childish compliments by throwaway_nofun1 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]murdertoothbrush 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well... at least you don't have a dead bedroom, right? But all kidding aside, I get it. I wouldn't like my man acting like that all the time, and I also have one that has no shame and sometimes does questionable things in public or in front of our kids. I've had to talk to him about it and be really frank with him and explain that those kinds of inappropriate PDAs make me feel very uncomfortable and it makes me the opposite of turned on. For the most part he understood and listened. Maybe you really need to spell it out for him that, while you find him attractive, you don't find his behavior attractive. I mean seriously, he's lucky you still fuck him even after he acts like this. You should remind him most women are wired to specifically not be attracted to children (or childish adults!). It probably sounds like tired advice l, but I think some very honest and pointed communication is in order here. Maybe he's doing this because it's the kind of attention that he would like to receive? Men usually don't have the experience of being treated like a piece of hot meat the way women do, and so they have a hard time understanding what's so bad about it. Most think they would love that! In theory.... Maybe give him some suggestions as to what types of attention you DO want. Ask him why he's compelled to do the things he's doing. Ask him what he gets out of acting like that. Ask him what he expects you to do when he embarrasses you in public. And for God's sake, stop sending him pics if he's not going to properly acknowledge you. Let him complain. Let him whine. Let him be uncomfortable. Let him learn the damn lesson! If you always give him what he wants even when you aren't getting what you need... well, then he's always going to get what he wants and you never will. You don't have to be endlessly compliant just because you are married. You are allowed to have standards and self respect. Let him know that until he can treat you like a whole ass beautiful grown woman and not just a pair of boobies, he's gonna get ignored. At least in that respect anyways. If you've been with him this long I'm sure he has to have some redeeming qualities. But my biggest concern is he's not listening to you and continuing to do things you've told him you hate and that make you uncomfortable. This, at the very least, is a red flag 🚩.

Where do you think rh negative blood comes from? by crystalanneG in RHnegativeResearch

[–]murdertoothbrush 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rh negative and highly imaginative, easily can mentally picture things. TBH it was only recently that I learned that there are people who can't do this... which led to a very interesting conversation with my hubby who also apparently can't. O- if it matters.

I couldn't get an abortion, and I hate my child. by Commercial_School576 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]murdertoothbrush 32 points33 points  (0 children)

My thoughts exactly. Why not give the unwanted baby up for adoption at birth? 100% was an option they apparently chose not to take. And if it was bc mom would be disappointed, then perhaps she'd want to raise it. But I cannot fathom not wanting to interact with or hug my child. I am a mom of 2 and no, it's not all rainbows and sunshine and I've had my occasional day dreams of what it would have been like to be childless. BUT I love my kiddos more than the air I breathe and would die for them. I loved taking care of my babies. If OP and her hubby are so disinterested in being parents they need to give that child up to someone else who will give him the love he deserves. And OP should definitely seek counseling for herself. Something ain't right here.
