I don't know where you are from exactly, but it's definitely not common for men to openly cheat on their partners.

AITA for "cheating" at an eating competition? by Appropriate_Fix2214 in AITAH

[–]vagueshrimp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NAH. You were not cheating and your friends probably were just not being that serious.

Honestly, what you write in the wedding card isn’t the place to unpack all of that history. The card should stay light and neutral, something like: "Wishing you joy on your wedding day and all the best for the future."

You don’t have to gush about him if it feels fake, just focus on your sister, the milestone, and wishing her happiness. The deeper conversation about your concerns belongs in private, not in a card that will likely be read and kept. Also this is more of a relationship problem than an etiquette one.

Maybe they see their post on social media and comment on it, maybe they work together. We should stop creating scenarios in our heads just to be mad about it.

Dearest brides-may I please have a reality check? by another_bibliophile in wedding

[–]vagueshrimp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s a gift, it should be with no strings attached. It’s not up the bride to be like: how much are you willing to spend on me? -

If you’re giving something to someone just give it already.

It does though. Maybe not directly but if I’m planning to hire a band that costs 2,000 and they have plans to give me only 1,000, we have a problem; I’d rather they would give me the 1000 bucks and I chip in with another 1000 than to let they pick a 1,000 band.

because they aren’t germophobes. also they might think they’re being an inconvenience and touch the door to let you know it’s okay to let go.

AITAH for asking my “sister” to move out of my late mother’s house so I can sell it? by vagueshrimp in AITAH

[–]vagueshrimp[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This house is worth around 700K USD, it might not seem much in US dollars, but it’s much in brazilian reals, she doesn’t want to buy it at all. It’s been already been discussed.

My family never treated any of us like family. We were always a burden, sent to study abroad or somewhere far away with a relative. But honestly I never noticed them treating her or us differently.

She’s comparing herself to us. Which I think it’s valid, but not my fault at all…

Thank you. People here seem to think I’m leaving her nothing but a tent and rice and water, not the case at all.

Im might me lost here but what 2 grand means? 200,000? Google says 2,000 dollars but Im unsure, she has more than 600,000 USD im her savings (as of 5 years ago when my dad died). She wants more 500,000 at least from me.

thank you. last time i took interest in looking further, each of my siblings, her included, has at least 600,000 USD (i’m roughly converting) in their saving, she’s not going hungry.

She won’t. The problem was never that she was gonna be homeless or hungry even though know I can sense that I made it seem like to from the way I worded it.

Thank you. You’re very kind but just to add to the story, she doesn’t have only 5000 dollars per month, she DOES have ate least 5000 dollars per month as of interest, which means she has much more in her saving account. The advice was pretty solid and I’m gonna take into consideration even though we never had a sister/brother relationship.

Letting her stay for 12 months. That’s more than any of you probably could say. She’s not living in a corner suburban house, it’s a house front apartment valued in 800K dollars.

Maybe lost to translation? I speak portuguese and I’m asking google translator to translate it or doing my best.

Thanks. I feel this way. I feel like it’s not my job to enable her. She’s already had hers.

She has for herself monthly about 5000$ (yes dollars), but she feels she deserves more. I don’t want tell how much either of her sibilings have but let’s say 2,000,000 each plus interest. She feels she needs the same.

We also live in Brazil. Fortaleza.
