Communication is important and if she isn't making it clear she isn't having fun or whatever then I see some leeway but tbqh if you need to be told that locking someone in a room even as a joke and then hauling them back in and throwing them in the gross rear end water filled tub when they try to escape isn't appropriate behavior you're probably a loving nitwit to begin with.

I don't believe 'black out drunk' is real in that way. I mean look I fully believe you can't remember poo poo the next day because you were just so wasted (although tbh, even then... gently caress you rear end in a top hat you remember that!) but uh idc how drunk I am it's not gonna change my core personality to the point that now I'm trying to rape my friends.

People use that as a way to excuse so much lovely behavior and it is really irritating to me.

It's a lovely situation, but why would therapy help someone who did something while they were blacked out and had no memory of it? Would you suggest potty training to a drunk idiot that pissed in a closet?

I guess but tbh I'd still think it was some bullshit and they were just too drunk and couldn't make it to the actual bathroom.

I mean okay if he thought it was HIS gf like was suggested that's a LITTLE better I guess but even so she clearly said 'stop' a few times and then finally woke up to him fingering her and fumbling at her bra. That's not confusion or a misunderstanding really, that's just "I don't care I wanna get my nut off" on his part.

I've had both but out of respect for their privacy I delete them when the relationship ends, I thought this was pretty normal. It's not like i've scrubbed all social media of my ex's I just get rid of stuff I feel like I shouldn't have when I'm not currently dating them.

It probably varies from person to person. I'm never ever going to post them on the internet anywhere so I feel like who cares really. I guess I should just delete them as I don't even j/o to them and they're just on the drive doing nothing but idk man I'd still rather not. It's not like they're some hardcore risque photos (some topless photos basically) it's just some memories of the past.


Also browsing through that subreddit makes me really angry at all the lovely parents.

e: if an ex were to ask me if I still have them I'd say yes and if she asks me to delete them I would, just fwiw. Has happened before.

It's normal to disagree and whatever with your partner; I think the place most issues arise from is when there is a lack of adult communication and one side is just unreasonable (tarantula dude) or unwilling to listen to the other side of things. If my SO came at me screaming about a sex tape they found on my drive, I'm immediately going to dig my heels in and get into defense mode. If they brought it up and we discussed it like adults, I might very well decide 'hey I'd rather my current SO be happy than to keep these old rear end vids/pics.' Partially because I'd want to keep the latter person around more versus the person who comes at me screaming their head off.

I mean I could see how it being in the kitchen would be a little much and he'd wanna say something about it but if she goes "it'll literally die anywhere else in the house right now" and his response is "I don't care" and she then has to explain basic ethical poo poo to him, he's a doucher.

Like at least try to find a compromise somehow surely other people in the world have figured out how to keep their Tarantula warm in colder environments. It seems like the real issue is the way he responded/communicated with her.

She's probably just trying to validate her status as good wife material. Idk I see where she's coming from but at the same time to me it sounds like he was having fun and now wants to settle down.

Although the sending nudes 8 months into your relationship ain't a good look; if he was encouraging that she's got some infidelity issues on her hands. Ofc they might have been unsolicited so idk need more info to really comment on that.

TL;DR: My younger sister [30F] is very annoyed that I don't refer to my son by his first name (also the name of her husband). I instead refer to him by his middle name. She thinks that I am being disrespectful by doing so.


Like where do these people come from. If that was my sister I'd tell her she was being stupid as gently caress and to stfu bc I can call my kid whatever I drat well please and to try and police that is disrespect on her part. Period.

i mean absolutely you're right but at the same time lol it's gotta feel pretty lovely to hear somebody named their kid after you but then that's not really their name

it's just a bruised ego and it's not like the name isn't going to be on every piece of official documentation he has forever unless he gets his name legally changed and he's probably not going to care that much

I mean yeah but it is really their name, and the parent is just using a nickname to refer to them. Like what if his first name was Jeremiah after the sister's husband but every day the kid was just called 'Jimmy' for short? It's the same thing really.

I'd respond to his financial manipulation stuff by telling him I'll hire who I drat well please and listen to the music I drat well want to listen to and if he has a problem with that I have 0 problem canceling the wedding and letting everyone know the reason why.

I don't respond well to bullying myself so I typically go for the "scorched earth" approach :v:

Ride The Gravitron posted:

It's manipulation. The parents are giving a gift: paying for the wedding. That doesn't now mean they get to decide how it is put on, unless they are some bullying assholes.

It def doesn't mean you get to tell your daughter what music she can or can't dance to at her wedding in 2017. Sounds like their money has been used as a manipulative tool for a long time if she's even considering bending to this bullshit.

You're not wrong but again what can she do other than call off the wedding

Depends on how bad she wants to strain her relationship. If it were me I'd rather just call it off because I don't want to be thinking all about how I compromised my principles on my wedding day. Doesn't necessarily have to be a court house wedding, you can still have a decent ceremony with close friends and family for cheap. The whole concept of an expensive wedding is some bullshit anyway honestly.

Alternatively she can just hire who she wants and lie to the dad about it and let him have a meltdown the day of. What's he gonna do, have a freak out in the middle of the reception because the DJ put a rap song on? He's gonna be the one looking like a lunatic.

It's unreasonable to ask her to screen literally every employee anyway; if she hires a caterer she's gotta then make sure every single person on staff is white? Pff.

Weddings are insanely expensive, I had a friend who had a $15,000 wedding (as in, I know specifically because she was discussing this with me) that ultimately felt really bare-bones and kind of crummy. Frankly I'd have gone Full lovely (like "in a park and each person brings a plush frog and nothing else") or gone up to like $30,000 for exactly what I wanted (lots of frogs).

See but I feel like that's because she told people she was planning a wedding; like if you're hiring a photographer and you go "I need you to just take some photos of this party" it'll be like a few hundred bucks but you say "I need you to take some photos of this wedding reception" to the exact same person and it'll be like a couple thousand.

Like bros no way does it cost $15,000 to throw a good party sorry but it doesn't. Not unless you're inviting way more people than you really need to be.

54 40 or gently caress posted:

It doesn't have to cost that much but don't act like any jack off with a point and shoot is going to produce the same quality as a professional photographer. Those packages also usually include prints, photo discs, some photographers stay the entire night and day. You get what you pay for. There is a reason caterers, bakers, video/photographers are expensive.

I don't think I did say any jack off with a camera will do the job, I simply said as soon as people know you're doing a wedding they mark the costs up on you for no good reason. Also those package deal things are a rip off 95% of the time. You can get your own prints made at just as high a quality at a professional shop for a fraction of the price once they give you the photos/negatives/rolls.

Sorry but a party for say ~50ish people doesn't have to be $15k+ for it to be a great time.

Usually a large part of that cost is the venue too so if you can restrain yourself from booking it at a fancy hotel/resort you're already saving tons of cash.
