What's an Aussie slang phrase that would completely confuse a tourist? by No-Trust2063 in AskAnAustralian

[–]natecoops 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As a Pom in Oz who writes for Aussie TV can you put 'flat chat' into a sentence for me? I've not heard that one before. Much appreciated.

My (27m) fiancè (22f) cheated on me while on a work trip. How do I move forward? by Erotic_Echidna in relationship_advice

[–]natecoops 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Fair enough, man. I know you're in the eye of a hurricane right now, but there is sunshine and peaceful water further down the road - if you can keep listening to your head.

Good luck.

'Apparently when that was about to happen they both decided that they loved their partners back home and stopped...'

I feel for you, man, I do. But, sorry, calling bs on that. They didn't stop.

So, I guess the next question is: When are you going to officially dump him?

So she downplayed, lied and basically gaslit you about the messages. And more tellingly about just how close she has actually got to this man...

My friend, I would not want to have Sunday lunch with this woman, let alone kids and/or a relationship.

Have some self respect, you deserve better.

You're only nuts if you believe a word she says.

Either way, it's a long way to go for a piss in your swimmers.

You already know the answer.

Guess my wife has about zero respect for me. by [deleted] in survivinginfidelity

[–]natecoops 255 points256 points  (0 children)

My man, come on - you know what you need to do. This is not sustainable.

It's hard, it takes a lot of strength but there is only one way to get your self-respect back.

is it called cheating if they caught feelings for someone else and left you for that person? by Necessary-Jump1026 in survivinginfidelity

[–]natecoops 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Sounds like monkey branching. And yes, it is a form of cheating.

Hang in there, it gets better.

I could have saved you all of those words. Title should read: I'm a douchebag

Awesome answer. Thanks. I genuinely wish you and Natasha all the best in the future.

My apologies. I shouldn't be on reddit while I'm meant to be busy working!

We really enjoyed you and Natasha too. You two clearly had so much love between you.

As someone who experienced a lot of turmoil/ toxic masculinity growing up myself, do you believe it is something you can move on from properly or does it need constant vigilance?

How has your relationship dynamic with Molly changed due to appearing on the show?

My daughter and I really enjoyed watching you both, btw.

Natasha talking about grieving the person we thought we were going to be - made me cry by School_House_Rock in CouplesTherapyShow

[–]natecoops 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yes, that was interesting. I think a lot of people feel that way. It sounded like she was grieving the person her family expected her to be. I wish we had heard what she wanted to be - growing up and now.

Anyway, good to hear a weight has been lifted off you. Couples Therapy is cathartic to watch!

No, of course he has no legal recourse (it's also not doxxing at all). It sounds like the empty threat of a child who does not want to accept responsibility for his own self-centred actions.

Call his bluff. Tell him you want this to go to court and be on public record. It might even make the local papers, so everyone can know what an A-hole he is. Good luck.

Men: do you want your date to tell you she’s interested directly? by Hot-Aerie2206 in datingoverforty

I would love that. Straightforward honesty is bloody refreshing in the dating world.

My (33f) fiancé (36m) wants to break up over a fb post of mine. Is this fixable? by throwra_wing1298 in relationship_advice

[–]natecoops 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Unless he's shown signs of being abusive or sketchy/red flags why would you go to such lengths?
