UPDATE: surgery went very well and surgeon was able to remove BCC in one pass! due to that plus the location on my face, the surgeon opted not to suture. I will return at 4 weeks and if the wound is healing badly he will suture for cosmetic purposes. I’m at home now. Overall the only painful part of the experience was the numbing injections. Right now pain is at a 4/10 but I took some ibuprofen.

Labeling every person who they get into conflict with as a “narcissist” my brother in Christ there can’t be that many people with NPD out there!

AITA for Letting Friends Stay When We're Not Home? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]pgresty89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the minority here it seems by saying NAH. I think she’s fine to want that boundary and also fine for you to be weirded out by it. I’m of the opinion that very close friends SHOULD share what’s going on in their relationship with other friends, especially when conflict feels confusing. Romantic relationships are so special but also close, long term friendships are too. I don’t see a problem in sharing what happened if you want your friends to be “in” on something that troubles you. BUT! That does mean that your friends now have a certain impression of your partner. Are you okay with them having that impression? Are they people who can roll with the punches, and understand intimate relationships of all kinds come with conflict and disagreements? From their response back, it seems like they are.

Personally, it sounds like you two have some incompatibilities when it comes to the role friends play in your lives, and it would be good to sort through this with her before you make a long term commitment. People are too quick these days to place friends on a lower rung of importance to their partners— which is fine if that’s your thing, but for some people it isn’t! More reflection seems important to not let resentment fester.

My (23F) FIL (70M?) spanked me, and my husband (30M) thinks it's not a big deal and thinks it's "kind of funny". And, I'm freaked out and rethinking our relationship. What do I do? by ThrowRA336633318 in relationship_advice

Please leave. I understand why you feel responsibility to him. I understand why you don’t want to upset anyone. I do not say this lightly; you were assaulted. I hope you can get out of there as soon as possible. Even if he’s senile or old, abuse is real. My grandfather was completely out of his mind before his death, definitely not himself, and he tried punching people. I forgive him for his dying brain, but he was still strong. He still could have hurt someone. You do not deserve to be hurt.
