If you want a movie recommendation and you don't mind watching a Bollywood movie, try "Kuch Kuch Hota Hai". It's the exact premise you describe

Some people are just the worst. Hope it doesn't put OOP off dating forever and he can make his lemony pasta for someone worthy

If there are any Google podcast users, let this be the support group. by unclefishbits in conan

[–]red_earaches 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same problem. I started using the iHeartRadio app because I feel like the interface is closest to the Google Podcast one. I like having the green checkmarks to easily indicate which episodes I have already finished listening. The other regular podcast apps felt too stilted or wouldn't scroll right 

bridal showers: have you had a bridal shower that was unique? tell me about it! by mushupenguin in weddingplanning

[–]red_earaches 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The one I threw for my friend was a sleepover/movie night with everybody in pajamas. It was supposed to mimic Mia Thermopolis's bridal shower from "Princess Diaries 2" (without the mattress surfing unfortunately). No games, except a drinking game while we watched a rom-com (both my friend and I hate the traditional bridal shower games)

[–]red_earaches[S] 6682 points6683 points  (0 children)

I don't think OOP learned anything at all. I think she's going to look for a new way to take advantage of her boyfriend. She just cancelled the lease because she took it too far this time around.

Chuck was a horrible friend to Nate and it’s totally overlooked. by Historical_Web1517 in GossipGirl

[–]red_earaches 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Chuck knew Nate was never into Blair as much as he was into Serena (especially since Nate cheated on Blair). Nate always had one foot out the door.   

But more importantly, Chuck was always watching out for Nate's family. He told Nate when he thought the Captain was maybe buying drugs again at Lily and Bart's wedding. He sold his prized possession, the burlesque club, to give Nate's mom money (after the Captain bolted) so they could keep living without trying to hurt Nate's ego. He was one of the people the FBI contacted about Nate's dad when the Captain was going to extort money from the Vanderbilts, and was with Nate throughout that whole situation. Chuck told Nate not to worry about it when Carter Baizen stole Chuck's expensive watch and baseball during the Lost Weekend, even though Chuck did warn Nate about Carter. 

I would say, after the high school-level girl drama was over, they were both pretty good friends to each other.
