PetraCore posted:I wouldn't be suuuper shocked if the 16 year old girl was a relative of one of the nerdmen, and OP didn't bring it up because he was trying to keep the impression they were grooming her. That said, I also wouldn't be suuuuper shocked if the 16 year old girl wasn't a relative and was just a high schooler who met the group through local anime conventions, in which case uuuh there need to be a lot better boundaries going on. Did it say the 16-year-old was a girl? I assumed if it had been the OP would have been going harder on them grooming a kid rather than just being irresponsible around one.

Uncle Enzo posted:Funny how the OP never says what she expected the dad to do. Just "oh you shouldn't have told her". She thought having a dying parent would be bad for the kid's mental health, so she should just not be told until her dad dies and she learns that her mother knew all along and was hiding it while she could have been making the most of their remaining time together. Obviously much better for her mental health. And by "mental health" I of course mean "mother being more important in the kid's life than father".

Kurieg posted:It also seems like his whole family was trying to get her to be a live in maid for their shut in son. I didn't get that impression myself - it's pretty normal for a family to be excited their child is getting engaged - but at the same time it would explain a lot about how they could have such different views on their relationship if the guy's family were pressuring him to propose.

Yeah, the guy needs to get off his arse and make his own meals just like she's doing. "Not being handy in the kitchen" isn't a thing. If you can read, you can cook.

Captain Hygiene posted:Aw boooo. Maybe if OP can't stop hosting them (because they're family), they could at least preface every meal with "I am not paying for this person" up front instead of waiting til the bill shows up at the end. Best move would have been to loudly give her the wallet on the way to the restaurant, pretending like she was doing her a favour after noticing she forgot it.

wizardofloneliness posted:Does anyone remember the soup tube one? A guy came up with a delivery service for soup, which involved a series of tubes around the city. There was the dog heelies one, that wasn't food related. I think generally though food is very common because everyone engages with food several times a day, and the majority of people prepare their own at least sometimes. Sooner or later you're going to end up applying some creativity to it. Everyone comes up with their own food ideas at some point, so there's a good chance that the kind of person who is both ambitious and dumb enough to see any idea of theirs as the start of their big break is looking at their food when they do it.

Hell, even if they did, which is the most generous interpretation of that timing, dating three years would mean she shared a bed with the ex she just broke up with while in a new relationship with her current BF.

StrangersInTheNight posted:Am I reading correctly that stepdad is James' actual bio father, but encouraged his son thinking his father was dead so he could feel more of a connection to his siblings? From my read I think it's that: Mother has three children from a previous relationship, Father has one. They marry and the family combined, Mother's kids' dad died before that and we don't know what happened to James' mother. The mother's kids moved out when James was around 7, never made contact again. In the years since it turned out James never realised there were any dead/missing parents at all and they were just one family with four children.

On the one hand that's what you get for that kind of age gap but on the other hand you should probably be able to cook at least one proper meal by the time you're 21. Even if it's just pasta with a sauce from a jar or something.

Deformed Church posted:I'm not really clear why it's just decided that these two cousins deserve it more than the one who's already living there? Is it a golden children type thing? Everyone take a turn having a home? It only makes sense to me if it's the OP's cousin from the other side of the family, so doesn't have any claim to the place based on the will but could stay there at cheap/no rent since no one else wanted anything to do with it. Still a dick move to want to turf her out to move in there, no matter what your legal right to the place as. As ever, the problem is landlords.

I'm kinda surprised she was invited to the wedding in the first place, especially since she's just the bride's mother's colleague. I'm guessing they expected her culture's traditional formalwear to be much more drab. Wanting someone who would look interesting but not actually pretty. Fuckers.

steinrokkan posted:Honestly it sounds like it was the obstructionist mother who screwed them over and either forbade them from accepting the call or manipulated them some other way. It's possible, but at 14 and 16 they should be plenty capable of getting on a call whether their mother likes it or not. I think if they actually wanted to talk to him it would have come up during them being upset about the inheritance, and definitely would have been worth mentioning in the post if it had.

And if you don't feel any need to keep the house, it's a lot easier to move out unilaterally without having to go through a big discussion (argument) with your partner about it.

Bonster posted:Hey, could someone tell me what this post says, because I'm trying to read it and my eyes are just sliiiiiiding right off. So from my read, OP's sister's kids always raise a stink at other kids' birthdays because they want to have presents too. So this year OP sent out invitations that said to all parents to get gifts for their own children as well as one for the birthday boy, and they'd all get handed out so every kid there got a present. OP's sister came but didn't do that, so her kids still didn't get presents.
