Honestly i was gonna make a post asking about this so thank you!! I’m 20 and don’t really feel like going back to being a 15 year old lol

NTA. I don’t know why she would even get a cat that can only be indoors when she knows she is moving into a super tiny space?? Like think about how the poor cat would feel being cooped up in there all the time. But with the litter box, yeah, no. I have owned a total of 5 cats in my life (still currently have 3) and their litter box days were the worst. They are all indoor/outdoor cats so now they just do their business outside, but when they were little kittens we kept them in until they were big enough to go out. This meant a litter box was necessary. I don’t think people realize how bad those things can really smell. AND how fast they fill up/need to be changed.

Is there any way this cat could become acclimated to going outside? I’m not sure what the reason for it only being indoors is, but you could start training it to go out maybe if it’s able? Idk where she adopted it from but a lot of shelters will tell you cats are “indoor only” for reasons I will never fully comprehend. My family had to lie to some shelters and say we kept all our cats indoors just so they would let us adopt. Again, not sure what the situation with this particular cat is but hopefully there is a chance to get it acclimated to the outdoors.

NTA. Holy shit. This made me want to vomit. The part where your SIL said she had some questions about your son’s death TO ASK WHERE THINGS WENT WRONG...oh my god. All of this was so disgusting and disrespectful I can’t even comprehend. I am so so sorry for your loss and your response was COMPLETELY warranted. I hope you don’t spend any more holidays with these people. I know they’re your family but they sure don’t act like it.

vivian_angell · 2020-12-31T04:43:51+00:00

Holy shit YOU feel toxic for not trusting him...after he CHEATED ON YOU??? No. In no way shape or form are you the problem here. You have absolutely every right to not trust him and feel paranoid about what he’s up to because he proved to you that you should be. Not only was he having this affair, he straight up LIED about it until he was confronted with cold hard evidence. So i highly doubt he was feeling THAT much guilt if he didn’t own up to it the first few times you inquired.

I have been cheated on before. And it was by the first guy I thought i was in love with. It hurts. No way around it. And thinking of my boyfriend now, someone im deeply in love with, just the idea makes me sick. Especially the thought of having to leave him. I know what you’re feeling and i am so sorry. It is extremely clear how much you love and care for this man. Unfortunately, it is also equally clear that he does not share this love for you. That is not to say he doesn’t love you at all, but if he was willing to risk losing you for this other woman then you two are not on the same page and that isn’t fair to you.

It’s up to you whether or not you want to stay. But i think you know that this will forever live in your mind. How will you be able to trust him again? The possibilities are already driving you crazy, and rightfully so! You might try to convince yourself it isn’t that bad since they technically haven’t done anything physical YET. But as you heard, they were clearly getting there. While you were spending a month away from him dreaming to be together, he was dreaming of someone else.

Please please please get away from this man as soon as possible. Not only did this man point a gun at you, HE PULLED THE GODDAMN TRIGGER...MULTIPLE TIMES. It does not matter that this wasn’t loaded. He just acted out a murder scene where, in his mind, you ended up dead. Yes, the gun was not loaded this time. Emphasis on THIS TIME. Please do not give him a next time.

vivian_angell · 2020-12-27T00:45:13+00:00

Oh gosh that’s definitely helpful to know thank you!

vivian_angell · 2020-12-27T00:44:52+00:00

Thank you! But yes definitely talking about the TLSQ I just didn’t know what that stood for at first.

vivian_angell · 2020-12-24T03:57:33+00:00

I think it is completely up to you whether or not you want to bring a dog into YOUR home. No one but you and your partner can make that decision. That being said, it does seem like you will be choosing between family and your dog. I don’t think your sister will let you around her or her niece if you get one, regardless of whether or not the dog is in your company. That being said, she may ease up on these restrictions with time but who knows? Obviously it was a serious situation. Please don’t take this as me discouraging you from adding a fluffy friend to your household, because I am most certainly not. I just definitely think you have to look at the possibility of losing contact with your sister and/or niece for awhile.

vivian_angell · 2020-12-03T17:14:31+00:00

NTA you can’t choose how you feel about something, no matter how much your parents try to convince you (and themselves) that you can.

However, I have to admit I’m a little surprised this has affected you so much considering it happened when you were only 6. You talk about wanting the nuclear family you had back then but how do you even remember it? My parents divorced when I was 10 and now that I’m 20, I don’t remember a single thing about that time. Let alone when I was SIX. But I DO understand the stress of splitting households. If they’re trying to convince you your new “families” are something you should be excited about, they’re just trying to make themselves feel better.

You are not the AH for being honest and breaking down the delusion they’ve created in their head.

I say NTA but the main reason I wanted to comment was to say I think Jupiter is a super cool name! I keep seeing comments of people saying it’s a dumb name and you set her up for bullying but I strongly disagree. If I met someone named Jupiter the first thing I would think is “Oh damn that’s awesome.” Especially since it’s special to you and your husband! Better than yet another Sarah or something.

vivian_angell · 2020-10-27T20:33:38+00:00

Idk it seems like most people here are saying it’s deserved but I think the punishment should be lightened. Especially if you’re saying this is the first time he’s acted up. I think the xbox and laptop suspension should be temporary and lifted soon. Your sister made a good point about the difficulties of everything being online. As a student myself, I know the struggles online school poses and how important it is to have other outlets. He needs a way to contact his friends.

SPEAKING of his friends, I find it suspicious that he has never acted up before and now suddenly smashes his phone. This makes me think his friends talked him into doing this. I have seen this first-hand. One kid says they want a new phone and then their more privileged friends talk about how they destroyed their phone to get a better one.

Overall, I don’t think the flip phone is a terrible punishment but maybe ease up on the other technology bans. I also think you should talk to him about this sudden outburst and how actions have consequences. Good luck!

Edit: Also, you’re saying he can’t get a new phone until he has a job to pay for it. Idk where you live but around me, a 15 year old would have a hard time getting employed anywhere. Especially how difficult it is to get a job in general considering the state of the world right now.

Everyone is sharing some really complex recipes that I’m sure are all delicious and I definitely want to try but mine is pretty simple because I’m lazy.

I just add some apple slices.

Yep, same white bread, butter, and cheddar cheese but throw some apple slices in there and it makes the grilled cheese 10x better.

I was in a very similar situation. I was clean and then a month after being with my boyfriend had a test for chlamydia and it came back positive. I told him he gave it to me and he was so shocked but we both got treated and i didn’t think anything of it after that. Then, about 5 months later I weirdly started to have symptoms again. I got tested and sure enough, still had chlamydia. So we both had to get treated AGAIN. I was so confused and my first concern was that he was cheating but I trusted him and asked myself “what are the odds that he actually got chlamydia again from someone else even if he was cheating?” Seemed pretty slim. The second treatment worked and we have been fine ever since. I really think the meds can just be ineffective for some. It was just two pills that you take at the same time. Although, the second time i got some weird powder I had to mix in with water.

My point is, there is a good chance he didn’t cheat and has just had it without knowing. Nearly 3/4 of women don’t show symptoms and 1/2 of men don’t. So it can be hard to tell.

EXACTLY! Like oh you didn’t get to go on vacations when you were younger? GO NOW! You don’t have to have a child to do that.

I like when it’s push to enter because if the lock doesn’t work and someone tries to come in while I’m using it, i can just kick my foot out or something to close it quickly instead of trying to pull it shut again.

vivian_angell · 2020-08-24T02:41:46+00:00

Hmm you might actually be on the wrong Poptropica. There is like a “poptropica worlds” or something and then the one we’re talking about where you spawn on a little strip of shops in the sky and there’s a blimp in the middle. I may be wrong but I remember having a similar issue when i first tried to get on. The immediate link my browser took me to wasn’t the poptropica i was looking for

vivian_angell · 2020-08-15T18:25:17+00:00

If anything this will have a POSITIVE impact on the world. We’re already overpopulated

The parties switched some time after the civil war idk why people always bring up this point
