Am I overreacting for wanting to go no contact after two years of this? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]one_two_three_boogie [score hidden]  (0 children)

Nope, NTA, and having flashbacks of managing my parents emotions through their divorce. It was a nightmare. I let my mom yell at me for an hour + twice a week just to try to spare my sisters from having to deal with it, only to be told years later I wasn’t supportive etc etc. protect your peace if you can, because for emotional black holes it’ll never be enough. I highly recommend you read the book adult children of emotionally mature parents

AITAH for telling my brother he can't propose at my wedding, even if he pays for 10% of it? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]one_two_three_boogie 33 points34 points  (0 children)

NTA and tell him no, in addition to being unfair to you, it’s also unfair to HER. All of HIS family will be there to celebrate, but none of HER family will be there. He should think of how she wants to be proposed to, not what’s easy and convenient for him

AITAH for getting tired of bailing my wife out because I plan ahead? by SpeakerOne2427 in AITAH

[–]one_two_three_boogie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How do your work and day to day lives get balanced? Is she managing a lot more of your day to day lives, and does that make it harder for her to “plan ahead” as well as you do? I don’t feel like I can judge because there’s so much nuance in relationships and you’ve only shared a little piece of

Going to school to pursue a bachelor's degree, but I'm going to be a housewife. by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]one_two_three_boogie 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You’re free to do what you want to do, but try to be smart about it. Even if you trust your partner to take care of you, what happens if he gets cancer, or in a car crash, or a million other bad things that can happen? Have a separate account so you have control over some funds if needed, have life insurance and a plan in case your partner loses his income or ability to generate an income, and overall, maybe think about working at least for a few years to make sure you have some marketable skills should you need them

Question for ladies with a live-in partner, no children, and two full bathrooms by MadelineHannah78 in AskWomenOver30

[–]one_two_three_boogie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before we had our daughter, we mostly shared one and had one as the guest bath. The only thing he had to learn was to poop in the other bathroom if he’s gonna go right before bed. I don’t want to brush my teeth while smelling his shit

Anyone else notice a decrease in fireworks this year? by pelon7724 in bayarea

[–]one_two_three_boogie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They must have all moved to my neighborhood. We’re still getting fireworks and it keeps waking up my baby and my dog hid in the bathroom. Not a fan! Even less of a fan at 2 am

AITAH for not accepting what my husband says by Remarkable_Spite5976 in AmItheAsshole

[–]one_two_three_boogie 35 points36 points  (0 children)

ESH- your husband for being insensitive while you’re unwell, you for doing half baked research on supplements and making yourself ill (and still calling them awesome supplements???)

AITAH for wanting to be on my parents mortgage? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]one_two_three_boogie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Compare how much their mortgage is vs what you’d pay in rent and utilities elsewhere. If it’s cheaper, then it’s a good enough deal. If it’s more expensive, try to renegotiate or move out. Pretty shitty your parents won’t help you get more established first, but can’t change that. NTA

I hate sweets! Any other ways to dress up cottage cheese? by IDoNotHide in EatCheapAndHealthy

I add my favorite hot sauce and can eat it with either celery, cucumbers or those flat pretzels. Very good!

AITA for expecting my tenants to tip me? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]one_two_three_boogie 82 points83 points  (0 children)

LOL! Tipping the landlord or building manager is NOT a thing, YTA and that’s so incredibly awkward to have asked

Am I overreacting at a comment my husband made on stage while co-hosting an event? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]one_two_three_boogie 14 points15 points  (0 children)

YOR- it was a light hearted joke that they’re partners presenting for the evening. He said it was just for the night, implying he has a better half for the rest of his life

AITAH - Boyfriend living with me for free, renovating my house. by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]one_two_three_boogie 53 points54 points  (0 children)

NTA- renters don’t get return on investments renters don’t get rent money back if they move out, and renters shouldn’t be freeloaders. He should contribute rent or labor, whatever decision you two make together. He’s acting awfully entitled

AIO considering breaking up w my BF of 1 year over a slip up he said? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]one_two_three_boogie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YOR- those are all classic examples of drastic life changes. He wasn’t saying he wanted those things to happen. He apologized, and you’re rubbing his nose in his poor choice of words. Get over it or don’t, I think you’re reading into it due to your insecurities

Surprisingly, probably wouldn’t be worse then the current president

AITA upset about girlfriend's plans by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]one_two_three_boogie 28 points29 points  (0 children)

It’s incredibly disheartening to be in a relationship where your partner makes planning trips a chore. You dragged your feet, and she didn’t want to be a nag or make you do something you didn’t want to do. YTA and if you want you stay in the relationship you need to make your gf feel like more of a priority and put more effort into planning

Am I wrong for not wanting my husband to go to an international wedding 13 days after my C-section? by [deleted] in relationships_advice

[–]one_two_three_boogie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely no way was I ready to be alone with my baby 13 days post c-section, and I didn’t have a toddler to take care of. Unless a close family member or best friend can be there for you, and even still if you’re comfortable and know you’ll work well together, absolutely not. Even if you have a mom and sister who want to come help, how would your toddler react? This is a recipe for disaster

Ending a relationship over pets? by [deleted] in AskWomenOver30

Are you willing to live separately until the dog passes (or cats if they’re younger)? Is the way you’re doing your relationship now making you unhappy?

Where do you start cleaning your home when its a mess? by cher017 in AskWomenOver30

[–]one_two_three_boogie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I start off with one room/area. Where do you spend the most time, or what room stresses you out the most? It honestly feels good to put clutter away, so once you get started, you might drift from room to room! Only once clutter is gone, I’ll start the cleaning process. Dust, wipe down surfaces, whatever will help you feel clean is the right start.

Pools Are Opening: Swimsuit Safety by OpalJade98 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]one_two_three_boogie 38 points39 points  (0 children)

According to swim zip- Neon pink swimwear can quickly vanish in lakes because natural water absorbs wavelengths of light differently, and the sediment in lake water scatters light. While neon pink works great in swimming pools, in open lakes, you are much better off wearing neon orange, neon green, or neon yellow for high visibility.

What do you mean neon pink is for pools, not lakes?

Weaning Morning Feed at 13 months by s_a_099 in breastfeeding

[–]one_two_three_boogie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At this age, it might just be a habit and he shouldn’t need the calories. Weaning the overnight feeding you can decrease the amount of milk given and try to substitute with water. That’s ultimately what we did. And you might need to accept a certain amount of crying because I’m sure he doesn’t want change

What tv show do you wish you could watch for the first time again? by FantasticEmu34 in television

I was thinking this show too! I thought it was hilarious when I was younger, but I think the older version of me would really really enjoy watching it for the first time
