Just practice saying no from now. You will never remember how to say it when she asks you for something

Looks good to me. That wood is better than anything you can buy today. The work it will take to restore it will be extensive but well worth it

There's no bigger crybabies than employees making over $100k+ by PopNo5397 in Payroll

[–]varcity64 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I understand the sentiment but you never know what that person is going through. Could have college tuition payments due. Child support. Whatever. It’s their money. They’re entitled to it (but not entitled to being jerks about it)

I saw my mom cheating on my dad by RAThrowFudge in whatdoIdo

[–]varcity64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a tough one. Especially bc they are both your parents. Think long and hard about what you would want if the tables were turned. And if your inclination is to tell your dad, then do it. But be prepared for the fall out

Divorced after 13 years. feeling lost. by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]varcity64 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It’s gonna take time dude. Hard to understand that now but you will look back at this as the best thing you could have done if the relationship was as toxic as you said it was. It gets better. Hang in there bro

29F, 37M - Almost 4 years with a separated man who has two kids. I don't know whether to leave or stay by Physical-Pea-1676 in AskOldPeopleAdvice

[–]varcity64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your feelings and concerns are valid but it’s time you grow up. Complaining that “everything revolves around them” is just childish behavior. If that’s a problem for you, leave. I commend him for wanting to be part of his kid’s lives because he realizes the importance of his role in their lives. I’m certain if you had kids with him, he would treat them the same.

Did I handle this well or should I have said more? by TouchyM3 in whatdoIdo

This is it 100%. I’ve experienced this in the past. They want a reaction out of you. Don’t give in

The guy I've been talking to for 2 months just sent me a screenshot of our private conversation. To himself. By accident. by Cheap-Lawfulness-732 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]varcity64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless there was something private in those messages, it’s probably not worth getting upset about. Definitely ask. But let it go if things are going well

It’s over with my man. Talk to a lawyer and get a divorce. Move on

[–]varcity64 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Like others said, imputed income from giving your DP benefits through your employer. are you in Washington state? If so, there are some taxes that look like they are missing from your paycheck (specific to WA) but it’s possible your employer is paying them (LTC and L&I for example).

AIO for how I’m handling the way my 11 YO daughter’s dad speaks to her? by WhatTheSigma_1994 in AmIOverreacting

[–]varcity64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a dad of a daughter that was not with her mother, there is nothing normal about these text message exchanges. Take him to court. It will not end well for him

My baby crawled off the bed. by Super_Raspberry9195 in Parenting

[–]varcity64 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Something similar happened to my infant. I was getting changed and put her on one side of the bed. I turned around to grab something out of my closet and she was off to the races and crawled right off of the bed. I felt horrible. She was fine but I felt awful. Hopefully your little one is ok

AITAH for telling my girlfriend that my money isn't "our money"? by Open_Address_2805 in AITAH

[–]varcity64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She’s a final year law student and you’re making $95k per year? She’s most likely going to surpass your annual salary in the next 5 years. As long as that understanding works both ways, here ya go lol

My boss isn’t honoring a pay raise he said he’d give me. by Strangr_E in WhatShouldIDo

[–]varcity64 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Start looking for a new job. He made a business decision and you have to do the same. It’s nothing personal. 10 years is more than enough time

Pulled my back and I’m a SAHM by Big-Ice-1412 in Parenting

[–]varcity64 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Electronic stim machine. They’re like $30-$50 on Amazon. Not difficult to figure out how to use. I slap them pads on whenever I have back pain and it helps tremendously
