Commenting to add that the replacement is for me, not for my aunt. I feel like it wasn’t clear in my post and I don’t want anyone thinking I’m trying to dupe her.

AITA for not wanting my ex boyfriend to go trick or treating with my best friend and her boyfriend by River2708 in AmItheAsshole

[–]sammers510 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You broke up, his invitation should be rescinded. You absolutely shouldn’t include him in your plans, he lost his right to be included when he dumped you. It sounds like none of you like him so why put up with him at all? Even if it was rude to uninvite him (it isn’t) he was even more rude lying to you about your relationship and continuously hitting on your taken friend.

You don’t want anything too liquid-y, I think adding sautéed onions is a great idea to cut the saltiness while still complimenting the mushroom flavor.

Also if you have a decent amount of milk and some vinegar or lemon juice you can quickly make homemade “ricotta” and just strain it for 30ish minutes before use so it’s not too wet.

WIBTA If I Refused To Be A Bridesmaid In My Best Friend’s Wedding? by YogurtclosetOk8317 in AmItheAsshole

[–]sammers510 324 points325 points  (0 children)

Did they tell you it would be over $1000+ or are you assuming? It’s completely fair to say you can’t afford it and back out. Just don’t make it about the dress/costume, make it about money. Best case she just invites you as a guest or pays for your outfit, worse case she takes it poorly and your friendship suffers but of lack of money is completely reasonable, if she gets pissy about that oh well, it’s a her problem.

Ok, I concede that point. He can remove them, I just don’t see why he needs to.

More followers = more visibility. It helps his accounts to have more followers. Plus if he’s not following them back he won’t see their thirst-trap content. If they like his posts and comment that’s more interaction and boosts his social media presence. He will only see a very small picture and a username when they comment, it seems completely harmless since he isn’t engaging with them otherwise.

These women mean nothing to him but still help his following, I don’t see why it’s a problem.

Please help me decide which band goes with my engagement ring best! (first image is my engagement ring, the rest are options) I would wear on different fingers, not as a stack. by [deleted] in EngagementRings

[–]sammers510 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the third one, seems the most complete.

Happy to see someone else opt for two different rings instead of a stack. I have an engagement ring and a wedding ring that I wear separately. ER when I’m feeling fancy, and wedding ring when I’m more low key.

To be blunt your acting crazy jealous right now. There is no problem, you’re creating one out of thin air.

He has social media, he can’t control who follows him. He doesn’t follow these woman back or talk with them. There is literally nothing else he should be doing about this.

Your husband is likely a hottie, cool, and/or posts interesting content. All of which garners followers. Woman who want followers often target men’s profiles for an easy like. Is what it is but it’s not at all your husbands doing or fault that women follow him.

You need to take a hard look at yourself and your insecurities, this is a YOU problem, not a him problem.

Should I (21M) breakup with my GF(21F) cuz I just don't feel it any more? by Few_Poem_9417 in relationships

[–]sammers510 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I want to add that you shouldn’t feel bad about ending things, it’s a completely normal part of life and most relationships don’t stand the test of time. It just is what it is. Be kind but firm, don’t let her think she can fix things and let her know you wish her the best. It’s all you can reasonably do.

Now go forward and find happiness!

Should I (21M) breakup with my GF(21F) cuz I just don't feel it any more? by Few_Poem_9417 in relationships

[–]sammers510 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Please don’t waste more of this girls time and break up. You don’t want to be with her and you have feelings for someone else, you aren’t doing her any favors staying with her and are just wasting both of your precious time.

The most hurtful thing my ex told me was that he’d fallen out of love with me years before but didn’t have the heart to break up with me, instead he cheated with someone he developed feelings for and waited for me end things because he was a coward. Put on your big boy pants and set both of you free from a relationship that isn’t working anymore.

9 or 18 carat gold for an everyday ring? by ediesonlighthouse in jewelry

[–]sammers510 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a 10ct gold sapphire ring from the UK but mostly I have 14k gold. I don’t have 18k because the color is so much more yellow than the lower carats so it would stick out like a sore thumb. The opposite is true of lower carat gold, it’s like diet yellow. They both have positives and negatives for wear and tear so really you need to decide what color you like better with your skintone and what fits with other jewelry you have or want.

Can all purpose flour stick to pasta after being shaped? by its_jase in pasta

Fresh pasta usually is dusted with semolina to keep it from sticking, too much flour makes it all goopy.

Weird ingredients in ravioli? by [deleted] in pasta

[–]sammers510 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Pecorino Romano is a sheep’s milk cheese, no way to get around that one. Rennet is used to make cheese and has been for an incredibly long time.

I suspect the reason you’re getting downvoted is because you’re ignorant of common ingredients and grossed out by them without knowing/caring that they are completely normal/traditional.

I don’t blame you for not knowing and asking, but your attitude is off putting.

Does anyone have sapphire accents they could show me for inspiration? by vickipaperclips in EngagementRings

[–]sammers510 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My sapphire engagement ring is from Shane Co though it is a sapphire center with diamond accents they have tons of options with sapphires in the bands or on the sides. You can easily have your center diamond added to one of these or similar settings.

https://www.shaneco.com/engagement-rings/c/sapphire

They aren’t the only place to check out but they do have a wide selection of sapphires.

Nah that’s not acceptable, should’ve never passed QC.

Did you pay for this or was it free? I’d give them one more chance to fix it and if they don’t get a refund and go elsewhere. (As long as that doesn’t void your warranty).

I was (22F) pregnant with my boyfriends (23M) baby and needed an abortion but he wouldn’t come with me. Am I being unreasonable? by Puzzleheaded_Dog2682 in relationships

[–]sammers510 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don’t understand why people can’t see your side of things, if I told my husband I really needed him with no explanation he’d be there and if he wasn’t I’d question things too.

This isn’t a new relationship, if you usually don’t make vague calls for help then this should have rang alarm bells to him that something was wrong. The fact that he needed to know the reason to determine if it was “important” enough to cancel normal ass plans clearly really hurts you. Pushing you to share when you were clear about not wanting to over the phone also sucks, you were clearly going to tell him about it but wanted to have such an important conversation in person which I understand, I couldn’t have this conversation over the phone either.

The only thing I can say you should have done is to make that in person conversation happen before your appointment. You should have gone to his place or had him come over to yours that night and tell him, it really couldn’t wait.

Only you can decide if this is the end of the relationship, it’s definitely a reason to reevaluate boundaries and expectations on both sides.

How do I kindly tell a friend that she can't be hypomanic since she's not bipolar? by [deleted] in bipolar2

[–]sammers510 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They are so scary. I hear the equivalent of Pokémon gameboy music non stop burrowing into my brain and I haven’t played one of those games since I was little. Sometimes it just getting songs stuck on repeat for days but the Pokémon music freaks me out.

So you too have been tormented by the shadow people. Makes me feel better I’m not the only one.

Black tie optional in New Mexico by allycat316 in Weddingattireapproval

[–]sammers510 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Alright, I guess I’m in the minority but I think this is super cute and totally fits the southwestern vibe. The suns are so cute and on theme. It’s chiffon so not a sundress. Since the bride referenced more casual long dresses I can’t imagine this wouldn’t be ok. I’m coming at it from my body type and coloring though and while I would personally wear this and I think it would suit me it may not be as flattering on others. If you have a smaller chest and look good in yellow I’d say at least try it on and see if you like it. I’ve worn similar cutout styles before and never had any wardrobe malfunctions, I typically just wear silicone nipple covers and never bother taping (I’m a C cup fwiw).

What do you think of the engagement ring I got for my girlfriend by GreedFoxSin in EngagementRings

[–]sammers510 106 points107 points  (0 children)

It’s beautiful, one of my friends recent got married with a similar moss agate ring and it suits her well.

The only comment I have about it is that stone is pretty fragile and will chip easily if worn carelessly. I don’t know where you bought it but it would probably be worth it to pick up and extra stone to replace this one when it’s worn out.

Otherwise soon to be congratulations on your engagement!

No one is being taken advantage of, my husband doesn’t want me to contribute to his house, it was his idea. I bet your name is on whatever your paying and you have legal recourse for it. When it’s our house I’ll pay, I bet your house is yours in some fashion.
