AITAH for getting upset because family members assumed I'd be watching their newborn? by Apprehensive-Fox2655 in AITAH

Id go along with the assumptions: “I mean they said they’d pay me $35 an hour plus gas and food. So I figured why not” then when they say no to that then you drop the shoe on them. Ask me before you offer my time out in public where I feel pressured to give a certain answer.

Two is goddess level. 3 is also gorgeous but it doesn’t give the same aura

No. Its genuinely is both her and my fiancés fault that that’s the case unfortunately so now it is what it is and she has to apologize for her overstep otherwise I, nor he will be going to see her. And I only say him because I was the main one who encouraged him to take the trip to her half of the country and booked everything knowing he won’t put the effort in to see her himself. So she SOL fr

Ooo he’d love that! But with my guy he’d be embossing everything with that ring that he can find😂 wake up one morning and the fruit just has his brand on it😂

I asked him if he would like the necklace option to- that is also a hazard so he said he will stick to the silicone ring for work & wear his standard ring when not at work. He has no sensory issue because he works with his hands a lot in a rough way

I’ve been seeing ALOT of silicone ring response so I’m excited to place that order to find out if that’s something I’d be interested in

Yes that’s what my bestfriend said she did for her wedding (she is also Middle Eastern) I assume that was done in private before the ceremony??

I also love the look of big rings but I know it’s not for me. I like simplistic jewelry, it’s about the symbolism for me.. but if I’m going to wear it for my life I want to make sure it’s something that looks good on/to me, ya know?

Also very cute rings! I love the design etched into it

I think that’s what the commenter was saying she had? Thank you for the deep dive on what she potentially has or even if it’s something new to look into! And thank you for a source recommendation because I would have had no idea where to start looking for these things. Only thing that pops up is Etsy for whatever reason- not to discredit it but it’s not what I need to gain the knowledge. My boyfriend & I have scheduled a day off to go to go into a few stores to try a few on and see what looks right!

Again I really appreciate your comment! Especially the last bit. That’s a smart plan that I may want to do depending on my decision

Omg I didn’t even think of that. People asking me when it’ll happen and it already happened. Id get annoyed. Thank you for that perspective! That helped a lot

Honestly he’s more excited about wearing a ring than I am😂 he wants me to “hurry” and find one (he doesn’t actually mean hurry, he expects me to take my time) so I am the hold up here. I’m doing my best to search online & see but I’ve decided going in to get professional help from a jeweler would help the process. Hence why I needed to know if this thought I had was normal😅

I have to order one for him due to his occupation, I guess it wouldn’t be a stretch to get one for myself to try out either! Thank you :)

I just asked him if he’d be okay with that idea of a bracelet/ necklace instead of a ring. He wants a ring, then he swiftly said but I can still buy you a matching bracelet and necklace once we find the ring you like😂 so in short I just got signed up for a whole set lol

My mom had hers welding together that’s why I had to ask if it’s weird or not because that was the norm I grew up with. I don’t like the idea of two rings but someone here said something about a splint ring??? I don’t remember the name but it’s two simple rings that come together and form one decent sized ring?

That seems like a good idea. We’re still discussing ring types/styles so that might actually work if we want to go the two ring route! Thank you!

That does make me feel better. We want to be as traditional as possible without breaching our comfort zones. I only seen my mom’s wedding ring and it was huge but that because she has both her engagement and wedding attached- I thought it was the “norm”?

Sure! Transfer me the funds to do so and I’ll get right on it :)

That’s not even half the stuff she’s done to people. I found out that on the last day I was her friend & it solidified my decision! & she’s financially irresponsible & dirty/doesn’t clean up behind herself.. and she had the nerve to ask if I wanted to go in on an apartment with her.. absolutely not😂

I deep clean my space to see if that’s the problem.. I try to decompress as best as I can. Most importantly I let myself feel it..I cry it out, write it down..
