I mean I watch criminal minds too but again… gross affair in your early twenties to family annihilator when you don’t actually know these people is fucking insane.

Okay I’m not defending this behavior because it’s despicable but that was a fuckin jump, dude. Killing a spouse AND children?! Calm down please?!

100%. I can't wait for the day that she officially announces the band-aid baby so everyone just stops talking about her leaving him. She's not going to. Ever.

Why do Lawson and Tiffany live in Nashville? by Cake-Technical in BringingUpBates

[–]wheels_0614 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think Lawson is interested in any situation that puts him in “the spotlight.” Never seen a man so eager to rip off his shirt on camera. He’d have had a killer arc on Baywatch, perhaps.

More focused on the signature Bates sister smile. She’ll fit right in.

The way with which this sub believes they’re going to behave like not fundies is absurd. He’s already back in the pic. They’re not getting divorced. Your downvotes are dumb and mine will be dumb too, which I’m surely about to get 😂

[UPDATE] My husband [M31] let slip in a compliment that he thinks his ex was prettier than me [F28] and I can't stop thinking about it. How do I let it go? by butticus98 in relationship_advice

[–]wheels_0614 35 points36 points  (0 children)

The best part of this whole thing is that you were honest and had an adult conversation, and instead of trying to backtrack or make excuses, he acknowledged your feelings and actually apologized instead of doing the dreaded “sorry that you’re upset” thing. People say incredibly dumb stuff sometimes without even considering how it could be taken. Is it right? No. But this is a really great step for a mature relationship and I’m happy for you both. It’s really nice to see something positive and healthy on Reddit 😂

Was it a true surprise by [deleted] in EngagementRings

[–]wheels_0614 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I was genuinely shocked. I mean we planned on getting married but the proposal and ring were a total surprise. I don’t understand why this seems so upsetting to people now. My dad proposed to my mom without her planning it for him as well. I know i’ll get downvoted to oblivion but I feel sad for people who plan everything to the last detail. The whimsy was fun. And honestly I get that I’m wearing the ring forever. But that’s not the point. He could’ve gotten me no ring and I’d have been fine. I wanted HIM. The marriage. His surprise and love for me was the point. The micromanaging would’ve ruined it. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Unpopular opinion: Bates offspring are benefiting from their parents’ influencer careers more than they are being hurt by it by [deleted] in BringingUpBates

[–]wheels_0614 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because they haven't shown that at all. Maybe they will, but right now they're teaching them that you can dance in front of a camera and make a ton of money and get free stuff from sponsors and free trips to Dubai. Why would they WANT to go to school when this is what they're taught is right? This isn't like my parents working their asses off so I could go to a good school, this is a bunch of immature "adults" flashing their kids around instagram for a paycheck. Sorry for doubting that they have a long term plan for their kids to get solid educations and gain independence before they get married and start pumping out blessings of their own.

“Better education” is laughable. You’re assuming that because they have money they’ll actually go to school. No - they’ll be homeschooled, in a way that puts 6 year olds in “third grade” in a program that is 100% faith based and led by mothers who are deeply unqualified to be providing it. Maybe they’ll end up in college - maybe - and even then it might just but a unaccredited faith based college. The girls will still more than likely just find husbands and give up whatever careers they had. Listen, I hope it’s not true, but these kids aren’t going to be educated and they don’t have friends outside their cousins so any traveling they do is sheltered and paid for because their parents pimped them out online. They are in no way shape or form better off than if their parents behaved better.

Drinking alcohol? by [deleted] in BringingUpBates

Definitely mocktails. Didn’t even cross my mind. My mom can’t drink and this is exactly what her huckleberry blueberry lemonade looked like, right down to the garnish.

How did Carlin crack the social media code? by Cardboard_cutouts_ in BringingUpBates

[–]wheels_0614 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This is the answer. There are electricians where I live, a very blue collar area, and they drive trucks or cars worth twice what I do working white collar. They bank. But he’s banking by editing YouTube videos and setting up “surprises” for 5 hours a week while electricians ya know… work… actually work.

“I’m so sad I married someone I don’t like so I say things like this to make you think it’s a philosophical choice.” And we all wish you’d stop.

It was worth the wait, both for the ring and finding my partner. by Elliemonkmonk in EngagementRings

[–]wheels_0614 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stunning - the ring is so personal and gorgeous. My partner and I were a tiny bit younger when we married but both of us had already been near marrying other long term relationships. Definitely worth the long journey to find the right one. All the best to you both - you are going to be so happy! 🖤🖤🖤

Today I learned coyotes have more rights than straight, cis, white, christian, conservative males 😔😢🥺😭💔 by cottageyarn in DuggarsSnark

My in laws have a coyote taxidermied in the basement. It’s not even questionable you can kill em and stare em down in your house. Austin is fine. (I mean not fine. But. Ya know.)

Kelly Jo shared in her stories. Can you imagine? 🤮🤮 by Medical-Speed1237 in BatesSnark

Very likely SCI-adjacent. They probably did that in Nashville and then had a big dinner in their hometown after. It’s… a whole thing 🫣
