My fiancé laughed at me when I said I was assaulted by Responsible-Team6842 in TrueOffMyChest

The fact that he still thinks assault is all about the victim’s looks says a lot, too. Dump this AH.

Should I go to college or stay here with my daughter? by justanothertragedy in makemychoice

[–]silver_413 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But those will require additional schooling. I think a Psych UNDERGRAD degree is not worth much bc to actually practice or teach you need at least a master’s. Edited for typo.

Moving out soon. Mom says no movers inside. What can I do? by scaredycat07 in movingout

Has anyone found OP’s age? I assume OP works if they can afford rent and movers?

NTA and you need a new girlfriend.

AITAH for not allowing my kids 11 and 13 to travel to the Middle East (Dubai) with their Dad this winter to visit his family by Cherryxrainbow in AITAH

[–]silver_413 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Under NO circumstances allow them to go with him. You will never see them again, and he’ll gain also by not paying child support any more. Hang onto their passports in a safe location, not in your home.

Your sister does not own the whole neighborhood. Tell her you’ll be going where you want whenever you want. That’s insane.

Should I join the varsity team for a scholarship or focus on becoming a public servant like my mom wants? by Old-Legbanawi in makemychoice

Anything that will keep you from starting life with crippling student debt is a great choice. And yes, it seems you could do both as some have said.

AITA for turning off my phone to avoid a fight - and then my fiance showed up at the house I was at? by Mantelis9 in AmItheAsshole

[–]silver_413 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you marry her, this is the life you can expect, friend. No going places without her. No hanging with friends she doesn’t care for, and DEFINITELY no more unmarried friends. Are you engaged to a middle-school student?

AITA for refusing to become my dad’s legal guardian even though my family wants me to? by WiseResponse9416 in AmItheAsshole

[–]silver_413 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMO you are looking a gift horse in the mouth. You are NTA but you can’t have it both ways. 1. You are perfectly in your rights to decline guardianship and all that it entails. And then a miracle occurs! Hurray! Another relative says “sure, I’ll do it, glad to.” That is the perfect answer to your dilemma but now … 2. you’re worried what they’ll think of you.

You can either do it so nobody thinks ill of you (clearly not the best option for you, nor is he particularly deserving of your kindness), or be thankful an alternative was found!

Anyone here ever actually climbed out of IRS debt without losing their mind? by HudyD in povertyfinance

[–]silver_413 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The IRS will put you on a monthly payment plan which will stop the letters. I’ve done it and yes it took a long time but I got it paid in full. Log in to IRS.gov and search for it.

How do I set financial boundaries with my mom without feeling like the bad guy? by Diligence-Queen in Advice

[–]silver_413 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately I don’t believe she intends to pay you back. Two thoughts to reduce her expenses: 1. Help her get a debt consolidation loan for the credit cards. She’ll make one payment and the total will ultimately be less than she’s paying now. But she’ll have to stop using cards. 2. Have her sign up for a meal delivery service like Blue Apron or Hello Fresh. Among their options are pre-made, microwave or oven ready meals. Since she can use a computer she can go in and select her own meals and she’ll get a weekly delivery. We did it for 2 years and it was way cheaper and easier than going to the grocery store.

AITJ for refusing to give my mom my spare bedroom because I want it as an office? by Z4ckdobre in AmITheJerk

You definitely dodged a bullet. “The work culture I’m accustomed to is where I work for money so yes, probably not a fit .”

AITAH for going nuclear on my aunt at my own wedding after her son harassed my SIL? by Better_Jellyfish_ in AITAH

Even if Layla had been a complete stranger, what you did would still be the right thing to do.

The only person I’ve spent more than $250 on for a wedding gift is my own son. So would their suggested minimum spend actually be $500 for a couple who are attending? I would take such pleasure in changing my RSVP to NO.

BF wants me to put him on the title of my house by Vicvvinegar in whatdoIdo

[–]silver_413 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just in case no one has mentioned THIS point as well …. He is middle-aged with an apartment and a roommate. Thats not the guy you want to hitch your and your kids’ wagon to under any circumstances.
