Absolutely. Was the “fingerblast that little turd” story also from here, or was that a greentext?

This, like its older “find someone who loves you like Kanye loves Kanye” precedent, is the modern “lift yourself up by your bootstraps”. It’s asking an impossible task.

Ex fiancé said he might reconsider reconnecting

quote:

We’re both 31. We were together 3 years and nearly broke up once before. I became verbally and then physically abusive (2 occasions) and he started to mirror my behaviour. Before this we were loving and gentle towards one another but my insecurities seeped in and ruined us.

We ended it amicably.. he kept asking me what we should do and I told him it’s best to end it but days later I regretted it. He told me we’re not meant to be as he’s fed up that I kept saying I’d change and then didn’t. He feels he’s given me too many chances.

I told him we could possibly reconnect down the line if he’d be open to it but he told me no. He said I should take my months off and that’s the best I could do, that I shouldn’t think about what I want to happen after. I told him I hoped he’d reconsider in future and he said ‘if you give the ring back now I might’. Then I asked if he was just saying it to keep me happy and he said no. He wouldn’t lie and lead me on like that so does he mean this?

Well, maybe if enough Redditors respond, she'll take the hin-

There was that story not too long ago where a lunch thief was caught in the action; they offered “I didn’t see a note/name on it” but had no rebuttal to “did you bring it, was it yours?”

I’ve accidentally eaten some hummus that wasn’t mine, but it was one of those start-up kinda offices where they provide free fridge food, and the other employee hadn’t marked the container in any way until they noticed I’d taken some.

Once they were all online and sending chat messages back and forth they were a bit more in their element and able to choose a course of action and carry it out. Top update, other than NCIS.
