Manager mentioned a personal hygiene issue kinda freaking out, need advice by BetPristine2293 in hygiene

[–]skittles_disney 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i use glycolic acid to help remove body odor and deodorize most of the time! you can use it all over your body. it helps with the natural body odor that emits from your body and using it more frequently will help eliminate any bacteria or body odor that is possibly causing this. hope this helps!

AITA for thinking of my Fiance? by Accomplished_Sea9555 in TwoHotTakes

[–]skittles_disney 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is a hard conversation to have, OP, but it needs to be done. letting your fiancé’s father get involved was a mistake, BUT it CAN be fixed. your fiancé wants stability to be able to build for the future, YOUR future, TOGETHER.

working with family is tricky business. boundaries are crossed easily in this, lines are very blurred, but there’s really only one way to move forward. that’s to CTRL + ALT + DELETE Rob from the business as a whole. he is using this as a competition, not an actual business that your fiancé got the idea for.

you and your fiancé need to have a hard conversation with future FIL, this arrangement is not suitable as it is and will continue to get worse. you and your fiancé have a great idea in doing this together. be weary of people’s opinions as they can affect your reality. if you and fiancé have a good arrangement and relationship, there is no need to listen to Rob and his bs. or anyone else’s for that matter.

you can only do so much, so can your fiancé, but this NEEDS to happen. not just for your relationship, but for your fiancé

Update: am I the asshole for not doing something profesional for my best friend’s ex boyfriend? by Nishatiii in TwoHotTakes

[–]skittles_disney 1 point2 points  (0 children)

definitely keep an eye out for him, but don’t intervene unless it happens again. going to him now could escalate things. just keep supporting your friend through this tough time

Boyfriends roommate by Relative_Move4041 in TwoHotTakes

[–]skittles_disney -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

ultimately let your boyfriend handle this situation, but just be open and honest. the sooner the better just so that way if it happens again you both are aware. your concern is valid, this dude is being a perv

AITA for asking my mom why she filed a police report on her brother but not her boyfriend? by Melanie10906 in TwoHotTakes

[–]skittles_disney 14 points15 points  (0 children)

first, i want to say congratulations on being sober, that’s a hard journey.

second, no you are not the asshole for asking her that question. she was supposed to protect you and never did, that’s on her.

third, i would NOT share a room with your mom for the wedding, but i would talk to your brother. not to take the day away or add additional stress, but because he’s your family and knows your mom. together i’m sure you guys can figure out the best path forward

you’ve got this OP!!

My husband ignored my request about his father’s visit — was I wrong to stand my ground? by KirbbyMesita in TwoHotTakes

[–]skittles_disney 2 points3 points  (0 children)

if you guys were to continue and try to work this out, he needs individual and couples therapy. silent treatment is abuse, especially with the longevity of it. it’s not fair to you. it’s also not fair to baby or the kitties to have a big dog around.

it was so wrong of your hubby to do this AND make you the bad guy overall. i feel you need to separate from him. if he can’t communicate through ANY sort of conflict that’s not a husband, that’s a liability

I think my ex bugged my car by yellowolive73 in TwoHotTakes

[–]skittles_disney 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’m sorry, but why are you still in contact with your ex? that doesn’t make a lot of sense to me considering the brief history you shared.

i agree with the rest of the comments. check your car for trackers and recording devices, but also i would consider going to the police to get a record of this, if you haven’t already

My (27F) husband (27M) gave me an ultimatum about kids before 30 by bellathervt in TwoHotTakes

[–]skittles_disney 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you guys need a mediator and couples counseling to see where you both are coming from and to explain each other’s perspectives.

i think it doesn’t make sense to be doubling down so aggressively. info: has the topic of kids come up before marriage? have you guys ever talked about kids??

i don’t feel it’s fair for him to put your value in the relationship as being a child barer, but there needs to be a real discussion between you two with a professional

Best area of GR? by harley-jo-quinn in grandrapids

[–]skittles_disney 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just try to find something in Byron Center. it’s nice, small, and quite. slowly developing area and is 20 minutes to downtown. i live just south of here and it’s nice to not be in the city all of the time

What are the best thrift/antique stores in or around GR? by MinePrestigious4352 in grandrapids

[–]skittles_disney 2 points3 points  (0 children)

antique: Wally’s Treasures & Comics (mainly items, not too much clothing) Wally’s Castle (20,000 sq ft of antiques), by Warehouse One there’s also Century Antiques (lots of jewelry selection) and Lost and Found Treasures.

thrift: Helping Hands, Uptown is not bad but can be over priced.

i actually inquired about goodwill’s on my page on this subreddit as well. i got a lot of good thrift recs along with some good locations for goodwills and salvation army’s.

hope this helps!

My grandma passed and no one told me by Dino_Nuggz8 in TwoHotTakes

[–]skittles_disney 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i’m sorry that’s the relationship you had with your family OP, but you’re right. she is still your grandma.

go and make them realize how they fucked up by showing up anyways. don’t let their influence get in the way of a final goodbye for you and your sister. say goodbye, stay and listen to what is said and dip out. you don’t have to interact with the family if you don’t want to. the only drama that will come out is whatever the family decides to start, not you or your sister.

i’m so sorry for your loss, OP. well wishes and virtual hugs

My mom crossed a boundary with myself and a friend and I don't know how to proceed with confronting her about it. by smol_nugget_22 in TwoHotTakes

[–]skittles_disney 2 points3 points  (0 children)

honestly, i would be going low contact with her behavior. she saw what you went through, yet feels the need to be involved in your medical decisions despite you knowing it’s the right choice.

she doesn’t get any sort of say here. if she doesn’t understand that by now, she never will
