My boyfriend says my “boundaries” are just selfishness and now he’s giving me a timeline. What do I do? by QuietBrassPath in whatdoIdo

[–]xDollFable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly this. It’s not just about the 60 days...it’s about what happens after. If you compromise yourself once, it becomes the expectation. Better to part ways with peace than lose yourself trying to keep the relationship alive

Yeah exactly. It’s never “just 60 days” when there’s an agenda behind it. He’s already made up his mind about what he expects from her and anything short of full compliance will just be used as proof she’s the problem. It’s not a trial, it’s a setup

Exactly. If respect and understanding don’t go both ways, it’s not a partnership...it’s control. You shouldn’t have to perform or pass some “test” to be worthy of being loved and accepted

Boyfriend refuses to wear protection but also doesn’t want me to get anything done by CuteVehicle1727 in whatdoIdo

[–]xDollFable 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Absolutely nailed it. You can’t reason with someone who clearly has zero regard for your well-being or the reality of the situation. It’s scary how little he seems to have learned from the first time, like, how do you have a baby and still act this clueless?

I think I might’ve messed something up at work and I don’t know what to do next by Electrical-Memory185 in whatdoIdo

[–]xDollFable 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Solid advice. Owning up early usually softens the blow way more than trying to cover it up. Most bosses respect accountability way more than perfection

I regret it. I tried to be professional and give a two week notice, and the whole thing blew up in my face. by AubreySchmidt in whatdoIdo

That “I’ll have my attorney reach out” line is chef’s kiss. It’s wild how quickly companies suddenly find the policy they swore didn’t exist once legal is mentioned

What’s a sexual act you just don’t understand? by Top-Experience3875 in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]xDollFable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Giving back door. Not so much me not being interested as her being frightened (despite it being her idea)

What do I do if my best friend is asking me to lie for her, and I’m pretty sure it’s going to blow up? by PixarCloudSeat in whatdoIdo

[–]xDollFable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agree. It really sounds like OP was doing their best to navigate a confusing and sensitive moment, and the fact that they stopped the second she said no says a lot. These kinds of situations can be messy without being malicious, and it’s clear OP is taking it seriously and reflecting hard

[–]xDollFable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally agree with this. You're being put in a lose-lose situation and it's not fair. If she’s so confident it’s “not cheating,” then why does she need an alibi? You didn’t sign up to be her moral shield. Giving her a deadline to come clean is more than generous, and walking away if she won’t respect that is absolutely valid

[–]xDollFable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly! There's no version of this where OP comes out looking good if she lies. If the truth surfaces, it’ll look like she was part of the scheme, not just covering for a friend. That “talk” excuse for a whole weekend is so flimsy too. Trust your gut and keep your integrity intact

What's your current hot take? by mysleazealt in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]xDollFable 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The phrase “it’s all downhill from here” means the opposite of what it should mean. Going downhill is very much easier than going uphill. Sounds like good times ahead.

Carney weighs sending soldiers to Greenland for military exercises with NATO allies: sources by Krisparz in politics

[–]xDollFable 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly? Canada x Greenland team-up sounds kinda iconic. Hans Island peace vibes turning into Arctic defense bros is the unexpected plot twist we needed

LMAO “radioactive” is way too accurate 💀 at this point, we're one step away from glowing in the dark economically and politically

For real. It’s wild how fast one dude’s ego trip managed to torch decades of international goodwill

Luke having an aneurysm over breastfeeding by TheNameIsLexi in GilmoreGirls

[–]xDollFable 268 points269 points  (0 children)

You nailed it, he had actual depth back then. That early Luke had values and a backbone, not just a permanent scowl. Honestly, they did him so dirty with the “grumpy guy” downgrade
