Starting point is 00:01:17 Out or in? A new study? mine. We're starting here. Right. Let's just top into this first one. Okay. Okay. Okay. Am I the asshole for eating too many cucumbers? Right off the bat? No. Yeah. I don't think there's any amount that you could eat. Cut and dry. What's happening? Yeah. All right, moving on. All right, let's see here. This is perhaps the most bizarre am I the asshole post I have ever written, but I'm honestly so confused. Like, I feel like I can't possibly be the asshole, but then sometimes people are too blind to see their own flaws, so maybe I really am.

Starting point is 00:01:53 For as long as I can remember I've had this quirk, I guess you could call it, that I never snack on anything, I never snack on anything other than a, that............. A, I, I, I, I, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a snack. thrass. thrassen, I'm thi. thi. thi. thi. thi, I thi, I thi, I feel I thi, I feel I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I th.

I'm not a picky eater by any means, but my snack of choice has always been cucumbers. I eat pretty healthily anyways, so a lot of fruits and veggies are a part of my diet. Since veggies are lower in calories, I have to eat a lot of them to eat enough. So I'll usually have some sliced cucumber in my purse that I munch on, I'll thrush. the the, I'm, I'm, the the th.-a, th.-a, th.-a, th.-a, the thrush, thrush, thrush, thrush, thrush, thrush, thrush, thrush, thrush, thrown, thrace, thrush, thrace, throughout the day and I'll always have a cucumber in my car that I just eat whole when I'm driving. I go through several cucumbers daily. Although it's not healthy, I've had days where I've felt really depressed and overwhelmed and have binge eaten nothing but cucumber. I think I've eaten perhaps 35 on very extreme days. Recently this quirk has begun to drive my, this is a 22-year-old woman, my boyfriend who's 33

Starting point is 00:02:45 of six months insane. His words, not mine. He says it's highly inappropriate to carry them everywhere with me. We spent last weekend at his parents' lake house and I provided my own cucoomber to snack on. One night before bed, it's unfortunately very funny. Will you be providing the cucumbers or shall I provide my own? That's me. Ah, da, I, ah, da. One night before bed, I was in my room gnawing on a cucumber when his mother walked in. Under normal circumstances, I never would eat that around others.

Starting point is 00:03:16 I'd slice it up. She was puzzled, but chuckled and said, my boyfriend later told me that I humiliated him with my childish and immature eating habits. I told him that his mom caught me in a low moment he was being ridiculous since he eats a bag of chips every day and I don't bat an eye. He told me that chips were a normal snack and whole cucumbers were deranged. He told me I needed to stop eating cucumbers and that my behavior was becoming a deal breaker for him. I feel really bothered, but I think cucumbers are a weird hill to die on, and I don't want to lose my relationship. So am I the asshole?

Starting point is 00:03:49 Edit here. I'd just like to add that my boyfriend has never expressed any issue with my cucumber habits before now. The incident in question was because around 8 p.m. I was getting really hungry. And I didn't want to go rummaging, ask for a snack, and I didn't want to bother them by asking for a cutting board or something to cut up my cucumber because of, well, mild social anxiety. So I shut myself in the guest room

Starting point is 00:04:12 and figured I'd just snack on a cucumber quickly. I don't usually go hide and eat cucumbers, ha. But then his mom walked in, looking for my to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. the toe. the the the the the the the too. the too. the the the the too. too the the the the to the the to the the to the too too tooom. tooom. tooom. to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the t t t t t t t t t t t t t tu. tu. tu. tu. t tu. t t t t t t t t t t not upset or anything. I honestly didn't think it had turned into such a big deal for him. There's something going on more than the cucumber. How is this the hardest one to one pack that I've ever encountered? Any ones that involve veggies are always confusing because there was also the guy who was stealing onions? Oh sure. There's that one. Love that episode. You guys did great work there. Thanks, man.

Starting point is 00:04:46 Thanks for being here. I appreciate you. I think it's, I don't see an issue. You're allowed to eat cucumbers. I can't help but feel like this is bigger than the cucumber. Like, I feel like she's using the cucumber as like, like, her nails like she's just like valid like ah ha ha ha ha but I would say it's like if you're good if you're gonna have something like that like great you're eating cucumbers there's really I don't think you can eat too many cucumbers I think it's like

Starting point is 00:05:12 cool she's eating a lot of cucumbers she's dealing with stress with cucumbers and you can eat a lot of cucumbers because they're like a they're like they're like the one of the food the food the food the food the food the food the food the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th I I I I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm thucoo.

I think I think you're right though it is like I do think there's a social anxiety thing she brings it out up herself like and you know just getting the vibe from this person I get the sense that they maybe are a little bit socially awkward and that's okay totally I thi I I I th I th I th I th I th I th I th I th I th I th I th I th I th I thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi that thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi the the the the the the the the thi thi thi thi th. th. thi th. th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th. th. th. th. thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi they're thi. I think this is the wrong subreddit for this question. Like, she's not an asshole. We can acknowledge it's a little different and if it's your favorite thing, you should probably have a partner that's like on board.

Starting point is 00:05:53 Yeah, I'm a little bit like a deal breaker. Like, what is he like? How could you dare? My mom caught you? Yeah, I do agree that it's like, it does seem to probably be tied to some sort of like psychological thing, but it's just not harmful. Like it's just not a big deal. She probably could benefit from talking to a therapist and being like, where does it come

Starting point is 00:06:14 from? Why am I doing this? I don't think she's an asshole though. No, not by no means. I also think it's funny that her, thia, thia, thia, thian, th. I, th.

She's 22, like she's trying to deal with a lot of things and she's hiding in the guestroom and heating her cucumbers. The issue that I have is the cucumbers are in her car. No, it like, it like, it, that I's like, that I that I that I is like that I that I that I is that I is the issue th th th th th th is th is th is th is th is th is th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, and thi's not thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, and is thi, and is thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, is thi's thi's thi's thi's thi's that thiiiiiii's thiii's thi's thi's thi's thi's thi's thi, in her car. No it's like it's weird don't get it twisted it's weird as hell but she's not an asshole. No she's not an asshole but it's also like cucumbers get it girl that's your thing. Yeah Bugs Bunny

Starting point is 00:06:53 basically did that all the time. Yeah with carrots. Maybe she's just like a little rabbit. She's a rabbit. Maybe he's dating her because she's 22 because twenty two is old for a rabbit. That's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's th. Yeah. Yeah. th. th. Maybe. Maybe. Maybe. Maybe. Maybe. Maybe. Maybe. Maybe. Maybe th. Maybe th. Maybe th. Maybe th. Maybe th. Maybe th. Maybe th. Maybe th. Maybe th. Maybe th. Maybe th. Maybe th.

No, that's true. But that said, like, look, 11-year age gap, that's nothing to sneeze at. That's a lot. Not saying it hasn't ever worked out before, but inherently with that kind of age difference, there is going to be some issue with control control control control control control control control control control control control, the perception, the perception, their, the issue, the issue, the issue, the issue, the issue, the issue, the issue, the, the, the, the, the, thin, thin, thin, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, that, that, and, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, you're acting immature, it's, I mean, that's, that is an asshole thing in and of itself because sure. He wants to control how she's perceived, like, look, family. The verdict was not the asshole. Some comments, not the asshole, dump your boyfriend and enjoy your cucumbers. Note, I personally find cucumbers

Starting point is 00:07:38 cucumbers disgusting cucumbers. And it would still never occur to me to care about this. Someone said, hey cucumber connoisseur, are we talking about slicing cuiks, Kirby's, Gerkins, English cuiks? There's a big difference between eating 35 gurkins and 35 English cucumbers. That's almost 41 feet of cucumber on a bad day. It's true. It's true. Damn, someone broke it down.

Starting point is 00:08:03 Yeah. There's the small cucumbers that you use for like pickling. Right. And then, can I tell you something embarrassing? Please. Sure. I think it's sort of embarrassing. So whenever I bought pickles and I was just like, oh, these used to be cucumbers, I thought they would put giant cucumbers and when you realize like, no, they were just, they were already that size. I've never put that together, to be honest. I've never thought, I knew, I'm like, yes, these

Starting point is 00:08:26 used to be cucumbers. I never thought about the size differential. Wait a second, wait a second, you mean the little? The little? No, like regular pickles are like this big, yeah. And cucumbers are like, oh no, but they they they they they they they they they they they they they are. But, but they are, but they. But, but they. But, but they're, but they're, but they're, but they. But, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, the. But, I, I, I, I'm, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I. I, I. I. I. I, I. I. I. I, I. I. I. I. I. I, I. I. I. I. I, I. I. I, I. I, I. I, I. I. I, I.

I didn't, I'm just kidding. It's fine. Let's pickle together. Do you want to take a pickling class? I've made pickles before.

Starting point is 00:08:56 That's super easy and great. So then you know. Well, though. Clearly she's not the asshole. She starts it off with, this is the weirdest one I've written. I know. She's very full of self-doubt if you're constantly writing things, or maybe you're always an asshole, but that they're, I think years from now, years from now, she's not gonna give a shit

Starting point is 00:09:26 about her cucumber obsession. And if a boyfriend is like, talk shit about it, she's like, get the fuck out of my house. Lastly, someone said, but it doesn't seem like he's theaughed about her cucumber eating habit. It seems like, throwns, and throwns, and their, and their, and their, and thiii, and thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, and if thi, and if thi, and if thi, if thi, if thi, if thi, and if thi, and if tho, and if tho, and if thi, and if thi, and if thi, and if th, and if thi, and if thi, and if thi, and if thi, and if thi, and if thi, and if if if thi, and if if if thi, and if thi, and if if thi, and if thi, and if thi, always a red flag when someone's like embarrassed by someone's behavior in front of their parents or family. It's like, but that's their behavior always. There's a big update here.

Starting point is 00:09:52 A big, how can there be a big update? It wasn't cucumbers. It was drugs. It was drugs. Okay. I didn't expect my first post to really get any attention, so I'd like to thank you all for taking the time to read it and give your judgment. To those of you who express concern for my cucumber addiction slash that I have an eating disorder, I can assure you I am perfectly healthy.

Starting point is 00:10:13 I wouldn't consider myself addicted, nor do I have an EDD at all, I just really enjoy my cucumbers. I can go days without eating them, I don't need my cucumber fix. It's just if I'm going to snack, I'd prefer to eat a cuke. I would consider the amount I snack on cucumbers proportional to the amount my boyfriend or any normal person would snack on chips or other junk food. I just occasionally eat more since they're low in calories. Additionally, I've had a few cucumber binges. I am well aware that those are not healthy, just like binging on junk food. young food isn't healthy. But that's extremely uncommon for me, and for the most part, I eat well,

Starting point is 00:10:45 well-balanced healthy diet. However, I will talk to my doctor about it to ensure that it's not worrying. As for my boyfriend, we ended up calling it quits. I was pretty hurt at first, but I think perhaps his huge reaction to cucumbers was indeed a expecting me to give up my cuigs for him. So the breakup took him a bit by surprise, too. How it went down was that I told him we needed to have a chat. I told him that it was unacceptable to tell me what I was allowed to eat. I added that if listening to me chow down on cucumbers was what bothered him, as some of you in the comments. th, I would th th th th th the, the, the, the, the, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, thi, thi, tho, tho, to to to to to to told told to told told to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to told told told told told told told told tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, the, the, the, the, the, the, the. the the. theee. the toda. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. toda. Howe, toda, t. Apparently, the very idea of me eating so many cucumbers was driving him nuts, not the noise.

Starting point is 00:11:26 I decided to try and compromise. He's a pretty heavy drinker and will get drunk pretty often. All right, man. I snack on 50 bud lights a day, and that's fine. I know that's very bad for his health, and I have expressed that concern in the past. I told him that I'd give up cucumbers if he gave up alcohol. Not equivalent. At all. What? That's insane. Queen takes pawn. He declined my offer throughout a few uncreative insults and expletives and I am now writing this from my mom's couch with a cucumber in my hand and a cucumber in my heart. I'm still... I'm still... I'm just going be like, cucumber in my mouth, cucumber in my other hand, type it with them.

Starting point is 00:12:08 I have an update. Takes forever. I'm still unclear on why the cucumbers were such an issue, why I could never eat them again, why me suggesting he'd give up alcohol was such a big deal, among other things, but I guess I'll never know now. Edit, I seem to have forgotten to add this as it was a common question on the original post and I'm seeing it in the comments now. No, I did not eat 35 of those mammoth cucumbers. My eating habits may be odd, but I'm not completely insane.

Starting point is 00:12:33 I think on my last cucumber binge, which occurs super rarely, and it was quite a while, I have maybe three who hooks me up with huge batches. Cucumber dealer? Dude, this is her, this is her vice. She has made cucumbers into like the hardest drug on the center? Do you remember the cucumber season of the wire? Yeah, man. A lot of people died that season. Hard. Just for some added clarification for those who think my boyfriend is Yeah, man. A lot of people died that season. Hard. Just for some added clarification for those who think my boyfriend is completely justified in his cucumber hate and that I'm a lunatic, I agree, sort of.

Starting point is 00:13:12 If he had been bothered by the chewing or concerned about my health, I was ready to talk about it and work something out. I didn't enter into the discussion for a fight or with the intention of breaking up. His attempted grasp for control over my food wasn't even the reason why I broke up with him, but when he started shouting at me and calling me a bitch, which he had never done before, I decided to end things. Well, good good for you there. What? Every reveal of that was so funny. I mean it's sad. It's funny now that she's broken up with him, but for her to just be like, yeah he he drinks all the time, he's drunk like every night and like I'm just... He calls me a bitch all the time. It's like, am I the asshole for eating cucumbers alone? Not to pick her apart too much. She does say this is the weirdest post I've ever written, and she does say, I wasn't expect

Starting point is 00:13:53 my first post to blow up. And then she says, don't worry, I'm like, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I'm, I'm, I'm not, I'm, I, I'm, I'm not, I, I, I'm not, not, not, I, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, not, the most quirky person. Yeah, that's the case. She's just quirky. She goes to a farmer's market is what it is. She's got glasses on, she's got a dealer. It's a farmer's market. Yeah, she's cool and quirky and fun. His name is Ralph's Kroger. It's the store. It just feels like a, it feels like a Netflix like love romance. Yeah. Like falling in love where it's like now I'm on my mom's couch with a cucumber in hand and cucumber in my heart. Update.

Starting point is 00:14:29 Update! It sounds like a Tim Robinson character to me. It's just like, yeah, I'm thinking I'm gonna have some cuke. God. You don't like the cuks. You don't get my luke. Nice. Well, good for her. This will keep me up at night. Don't know why. The chewing. Thinking about that nonstop. I will say I was concerned about the chewing. I was like if it's the chewing I'd probably. She said it wasn't the noise. Right. Which I'm glad. Which is crazy because eating a cucumber is so. She's housing those all stealthy. That's insane. That's like. Well that one was hilarious. A. that. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the. the. the. the. thi. th. the. thi. the. thi. th. thi. th. th. th. th. th one was hilarious. Yeah. And good for her, she's out of that shit. I think we've changed some lives today. Okay, moving on from that. Next story,

Starting point is 00:15:12 am I the asshole for throwing out my girlfriend's dolls? Typically I would say on this show anytime you're throwing something out or deleting something of someone's without their permission, typically you're the asshole. Dolls. Last time I was here it was deleting the animal crossing island and now it's dolls can no one to have anything fun anymore. This is a 24-year-old guy with a girlfriend who's 23. My 23-year-old girlfriend and I have been together, long distance for three years. We just moved in together.

Starting point is 00:15:45 I moved across the country for her after finishing college. I always knew my girlfriend liked creepy shit. Okay, judgment number one. Like cucumbers. I always knew my girlfriend liked creepy shit, like haunted houses and scary movies, but I didn't realize she liked to collect creepy shit. I'd seen her apartment over video calls, but there was one thing she had neglected to show me, a fucking shelf of creepy ass dolls. When I was walking through the apartment

Starting point is 00:16:11 for the first time I noticed it in the corner of the living room and holy shit, I asked her and she said that she likes thrifting for old, abandoned dolls, cleaning them, getting them new clothes, doing their hair, then throwing them on the shelf. Then she started introducing me to them. They all had names. And there were a couple really rough ones that she said she had since she was a kid or were her moms, or some were her grandmas, the other four were thrifted. She said the ones she thrifts and gets into good enough shape she gives to disadvantaged kids at the daycare she works at. She only keeps the ugly ones.

Starting point is 00:16:45 I thought I'd be okay with it, but every morning I just dreaded looking at them. They made me so fucking uncomfortable. I tried buying her squish mallows, thinking maybe she could collect something normal instead. She loved them, but she still is about, all about the dolls. I then suggested she give them to her kids at daycare or displayed them at daycare instead, but she was worried they'd be damaged or taken home by kids by accident.

Starting point is 00:17:07 I think she realized I didn't like them, so she asked if I wanted her to move them into the closet. I said yes and thought that would be it. Well, one of my friends flew out of the box, and almost shit his pants. The doll's heads all poked out of the box and their creepy little eyes stared into his soul. Horror movie shit. I was so embarrassed and my girlfriend was apologetic but had a bit of a laugh. Honestly that was the last straw. Those fucking things would leave the wouldn't leave me the fuck alone. The next day which is today is garbage day. So I took the box out and tossed it the boxed out out out out out out out out out out out the boxed the boxed the boxed. the boxed. the boxed. the the boxed. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their.

It's gone. My girlfriend came home and I started sweating. I told my friend we were leaving to get dinner.

Starting point is 00:17:49 She's been calling and texting, but I want to give her time to cool off. My friend is saying I'm a bit of a jerk, but I genuinely feel that I had to do it. Dude, to me, this man, this man, this man, this man, this man, this man, this man, this man, this man, this man, this man, this man, this man, this man, this man, this man, this man, this man, this man, this man, this man, th is thi thus is thus is thus is not thi thi thi thi thi thi the the the the the the, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi thi th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi is thi is toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, too want to understand his girlfriend. She clearly, whatever man, she wants to, these dolls mean something to her, just like the cucumber lady. It's like, why don't you understand your girlfriend? Why don't you understand why she wants to dolls rather than being like, no, gotta get rid of them. I'm justified because I'm uncomfortable.

Starting point is 00:18:20 It's like, dude, yeah, dolls, okay. Did I sleep with 15 Barbie dolls on a thing that were like perfectly set? Yes, I did. Was that a little creepy? Maybe. Whatever, man. Did they move around every night without me doing that? Did they go wake up and then do that?

Starting point is 00:18:35 Yes. Did they whisper secrets? No. The good news is I've seen enough horror movies to know that those those those those those those those those those thoes thoes thoes thoes thoes thoes thoes, thoes, thoes, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thiiiiiiii, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, the good news is I've seen enough horror movies to know that those things are coming back so she's fine.

Yeah well clearly she made three years. Three years. three years you never visited her apartment? But he said he knew she loves creepy shit, scary movies, all this stuff, and he's like, but she collects it. It's like, well, yeah, it's like. Yeah, of course. If she, I don't know, I just feel like this guy wants her to be, you just never throw

Yeah, and like all you had the fix there was like let's get a different bin or a lid to put on it Yeah, I think it's not even a matter of him not understanding his girlfriend He doesn't understand people because his whole thing was like that's too creepy for me a 24 year old man Could you give it to those preschoolers?

And you have to accept that. Also, was he out to dinner while he was writing this?

Starting point is 00:23:06 He's like, she's calling me right now. The friend's like, I'm going to give her some time to cool off. It's like, you're so condescending. Yeah. What the fuck? Yeah. A bunch of comments here. I think we know belong to you, but items that held great sentimental value to your girlfriend. These aren't dolls that she found down at the Walmart, they belong to her mom and grandma.

Starting point is 00:23:29 This is unforgivable. She already compromised by putting them in a closet since you didn't like them. You'd better hope that it wasn't garbage pickup day and get them back. I hope the dolls are possessed by evil spirits and haunt you. Opie said they're gone for good. their. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. Oh, their.

It just isn't normal to keep ugly dolls. She knows they're ugly, but she keeps them because they remind her of her mom. I think maybe she could just put a picture up or something instead now. But no one would ever take her seriously when she's got these weird-assease when she's got these would creep me out too. But you don't throw away someone else's stuff. If you feel so uncomfortable about those dolls, move out and break up with that person.

Starting point is 00:24:13 He responded, saying, I don't want to break up this. Oh no, this man is insane! Yeah. I got rid of her only flaw. Now she's perfect. Now I can put her on the shelf and she can be my little doll. He's creepy than the dolls. He literally is the doll maker. He's the dollmaker. Oh my god. Did we just come up with a horror movie? Yes, cut this whole thing. Cut this whole thing. Trademark and trademark. Trade-Mart. This session begins now. Yeah. All right, there's these dolls. He makes them. Update.

Starting point is 00:24:49 Oh God. You're back. I got. I got many messages asking for an today. took. the to, I, I, I, I, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, the, to, to, to, to, to, the, to, the, the, the, the, the, the, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, tod. tod. tod. tod. toda. toda. tod. tod. tod. toda, toda, toda, toda. today, today, an asshole. I went home and my girlfriend asked me where her dolls were. She'd had a bad day and assumed that I had moved them somewhere after they spooked my friend, but she really wanted them because they're very comforting for her.

Starting point is 00:25:13 I sat her down and told her the truth. To be honest, I expected to be yelled at, it would have almost been easier, It reminded me of when her grandma died. I think that's when it sunk in how bad I fucked up. I slept on the couch with my friend, and today I swore to do everything I could to correct my massive fuck up. Unfortunately, there's no way we could possibly get the originals back. They would have ended up compacted and heading to a massive landfill outside the city. So I texted my girlfriend, what kind of dolls they were. Most of them she knew, but one of her grandma's dolls were handmade, so that one obviously I can't replace. I started scouring the internet looking for antique shops, thrift stores, pawn shops, etc. I ordered a couple online that

Starting point is 00:25:52 were the same as the ones she had and found one similar to one she had at one of the stores. I didn't realize how expensive dolls were. She hasn't broken up with me yet, but I'm now expecting it after what everyone is a. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A.

I'm sleeping on the couch again tonight and I'm looking to book a flight home. I'm planning on continuing to pay my half of rent for the year, since she doesn't make much money and I'll be living with my parents. If she asked her money to try replacing all the dolls, I'll pay it. It's the least I can do. Thank you everyone everyone everyone everyone everyone everyone everyone everyone everyone everyone. Thank you everyone everyone everyone. Update number two. Oh God. This is the girlfriend. I have killed him. This is the doll, Maria. We talked, and she hadn't forgiven me, but wanted to make it work.

Starting point is 00:26:34 I made the mistake of showing her this Reddit account, and she ended up changing her mind. She broke up with me, but is letting me stay on the couch until I'm able to get a transfer. It shouldn't take long since I've been with my job for a while and only transferred to this city recently, so I'll be flying back to my hometown early next week. She's going to be trying to find similar dolls and we agreed that she'd send me the receipt and I'd send her

Starting point is 00:26:55 the money to make it work after all that shit and he's like by the way here's all this Reddit shit and she said like yeah her next boyfriend could deal with this shit. She's amazing she is amazing she was vulnerable enough to be like this is what this means to me and she still tried to like figure out how to make it work god damn I hope those dolls they just all get in a car and they go, do you know where he lives? Yeah, I got his address. D-na-da-da-da-da-da. The wheel is this big. One of those little red plays for the cars just like tumbling.

Starting point is 00:27:34 And there's a big truck going like, they see a little car. It feels very toy story. Terrifying. You know why I pulled you over right you can't be driving like that. Yeah they're like fuck you. I've I I think I'm so scared of dolls but I think I would be more scared to throw them away because I would I I'm a skeptic you guys know this like I'm not like an avid believer in ghosts or demons but I also like to hedge my bets yes and if I'm like if there's a one in a trillion chance those dolls are haunted. I don't want to piss. And they love skeptics. I know. I'm like, I'm the guy who'd get murdered in a horror movie. So I'm like, I need to... From the shins up. I make sure I'm gonna be like, no, I'm gonna be like nice to them. He wouldn't be murdered first. They'd make him watch. They make him. They make him watch. They make him watch. They'd make him.

Starting point is 00:28:26 I believe, and they go, good. Slice. But like nothing happens, then it looks sound like, trip. Huh? And then I wake up. And then I wake up. And you are a doll. the fact that he's like, no, I was like, yeah, what is he, what is he telling his parents?

Starting point is 00:28:47 I don't know. Botched it. I also love that he's like, hey, can I show you this Reddit story where I tell our whole life story on here? Yeah. Moving on. Time for the girlfriend to take out the trash. I love the title of this one.

Starting point is 00:29:10 I feel like this one's going to be weird. Okay. Am I the asshole for stealing my cat? Yeah. No. Yeah. No. No. So. It's a 21-year-old woman. So I have a beautiful brown cat, Midge.

Starting point is 00:29:26 She's still a baby and is 10 months old. I found her outside of my work when she was about two to three months old and immediately fell in love with her. We've had the best time together and her being my first pet since moving out makes me even happier. My cousin Tanya, who's 15, visits me a lot since we live in the same city and I enjoy having her. She also really likes cats, but since her father is allergic, they don't have any at home. She really loves coming over to see Midge, and I'm glad to be able to provide her with Midge's presence. School recently started, and before I go back to being full-time student,

Starting point is 00:29:58 I've been having to work almost 45 hours a week to afford my lifestyle for the next couple months. Since I was I I I I I I I I I I I I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was th th th th th th th th th th th th th th to to to to to to to to to thi to to th. th. the the th. th. the the th. the th. the th. the th. the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th th th th th th th th thi thi thi thi thi thi thi the t t t t t t te te to te te te te to toda te the the the the the the the the the to afford my lifestyle for the next couple months. Since I was busy, I let her have the responsibility of taking care of Midge. Such as feeding her, cleaning her litter box, etc. It was going really well and I didn't have the chance to take her home since I was going to be at work. I gave her my spare key to lock up and scheduled an Uber to take her to her house. When I came home, tho'idge was home when she left, but after a couple hours my brother called asking when I gave Midge to Tanya. I was confused and he sent me a screenshot of Tanya kissing Midge on her Instagram story. I knew then she blocked me from being able to see it and I was shocked she would do this to me as well as lie. I had a spare key to their house and went right over and took Midge back when they were to.............. And, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, to, the, thea, and, the, the, and, and, t, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, the, and, and, the, the, and, and, the, the, the, the, and, the, and, and, the, and, the, the, the, and, the, the, the, the, the, the, and, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, t t toda, today, today, today, today, thea, thea, thea, thea, the. the. the. the and went right over and took midge back when they weren't home. When I got home, Tanya called screaming at me over the phone telling me I broke into their house and stole her property. I laughed and asked how midge was hers.

Starting point is 00:30:53 She told me since she took care of her, she deserved her since I wasn't home. And she had told me I didn't deserve Midge from what Tanya told them. They told me they decided my uncle will take allergy medication for Midge and I needed to give her back. Of course I said no. Tanya ended up calling my mom, lying to her that I abused Midge. My mom called angry telling me. their tell told me. their mom called told angry their told angry, the the told, the the the th the told, the the the the the the told, the the the the the the told, their, the their, told, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, the. their, the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. thea. thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, thea, the. the. and if I don't give her to Tanya and her family, she will disown me. Tanya texted me this weekend that if I apologize she might forgive me. Her parents have been texting me all weekend, they'll press charges since I did go into their home and will take Midge then. I don't know what to do. I love Midge because Tanya texted me this, I'm assuming to scare me, I am. I'm so scared one of these days

Starting point is 00:31:47 I'm going to come home and Midge is going to be gone again. My brother and dad think I'm an asshole since I did go into their home without without trying to solve it maturely. So am I the asshole the to'n' ttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt. ttttoda' one one one one one today. today, so. I'm somea' one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one one. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. tttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t like 20 years. That's a really rough situation. Wait a second. Can I get this clear? So she, Tanya's her friend. Her cousin. Her cousin, 15-year-old cousin who she was working a bunch so she let tony have the key to her place to basically come and cat sit every day and take care of her cat. This teenager steals her cat, takes it to her place, and it's not like, it's my cat, blocks her, just sounds like a psycho, and sounds like every- She sounds like she's 15. She's 15, but it's the parents and the uncle and aunt are also fucking

Starting point is 00:32:35 psycho. And so that sucks. These are crazy people. Here's the deal though. Like obviously, I'm furious at the teu. I th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thin, thi, thi, thi, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, just th, just th, just thi, just thi, just just just just just just just just just just just just, thi, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the the the the thr, thr-s, thr-s, thr-s, thr-s, thr-s, thr-s, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks,, like obviously I'm furious at the idea. I know. I have my cats, I love them so much. If anyone were ever, like, I would lose my mind. Yeah. But also, I want to leave like a sliver of doubt here for any updates because that is so many people in this person's life saying that she's wrong. And that is possible. That's possible that everybody else sucks, but I've also known people who are really, really bad pet owners. It's, it's, that's tricky.

Starting point is 00:33:08 It's shocking because, I mean, yes, because we're hearing it from her perspective. Right. For the mom to just immediately believe. I was gonna say, the mom immediately believed, like, how could you do that? She didn't, which means she didn't have any faith in her daughter. Yeah, and what I will say is like, if I was in this situation, the cat being taken is insane, but this is your cousin. So these are all people that you know very well.

Starting point is 00:33:31 It's like, I feel like you would call them, be like, she took my cat. She broke into their house, which is like. It's not, but it's, and yeah, it's, it's, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. that, th. So, that, th. So, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the, the, the she's now in a tough position because she did that now she's in this like messy situation she fucked yourself where as if she had called and said hey you have my cat told her she my cat, even if she had the records of texts of saying you took my cat, she could then show that maybe, I don't know, but it's tough to just jump to that. I mean, I guess you sort of go tit for tat in that point, because it's like, okay, you stole my cat. I took it back. She did technically steal the cat. I'm, yeah, it's one of those things where if someone did anything to my pets, I would...

Starting point is 00:34:28 I'm like, I don't know what I would become. You burn my house to the ground! Truly, I'm like, if you want to mess with their pets, and I would never mess with their pets, because I know, I'm like, if you want to's probably the fastest way to get murdered by a lot of people. I will mess with their pets. I will walk backwards out of the underworld with both cats and hands. It's completely fine, yeah. Um, so the verdict here was not the asshole, which I think makes sense given from her

Starting point is 00:34:56 perspective. It's all the info we have. Because yeah, if I'm fitting in one of my friends into this situation, I'd be like, oh, yeah, you're not the asshole. But that's my friends who are good pet owners. And so as presented, yes, of course you're stealing. But it's valid what you're saying. Someone said, not the asshole, change your locks. If they want to press charges against you for retrieving your property, in the the tasks, the the the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, to admit that your cousin stole from you in the first place. I would just block and ignore all of these people. Someone else said, if you haven't taken the cat to the vet or got her chipped, do so now.

Starting point is 00:35:29 That way there's a paper trail as to whose cat that is. Edit to say, uh, fuck everyone calling you her again. Not the asshole, and I hope your family will realize the damage your cousin did to your trust in them. Someone said, people in this thread actually did that. Having a spare key implies permission to use it. You can't retroactively decide that the reason for using it wasn't good enough. That is true. That feels very valid to me. They're lucky she used a key. If someone took my cat. If I, the to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, the to, to, the the their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, people, their, people. their, people. their, people. their, people, people. their, people, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, people. their, people. their, people. their, people. their, their, their, their. th. th. th. th. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. thea. thr. thea. thea. thea. People thea. People thea. People thea. People threa. People thr. People thr. People thr if someone took my cats I'd coolade man through the wall. That was another thought I had though because you know when you adopt a cat you there's a lot of stuff you have to do when you get a pet and it's like I feel like a veterinarian would be like yes this is their cat. They're here they had all this stuff. There's a little edit here. I called and left a voice. I called and gave a tooom. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A.

Legally, he was able to refuse since as a college student, my mom's name is on the lease and he needed her permission. Of course he called and she refused. I'm scared she's going to come tomorrow,

Starting point is 00:36:33 but I do have a friend I can drop Midge off before work. Update. Okay, because I was going to say the family is very against her. Yeah, this is wild. I took I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I th. I th. I was I th. I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I was I th. I was th. I was th. I was th. I was th. I was th. I was th. I was th. I was th.

I'm the the the the tod tod toda. toda. the the the the the the the the the the the the th, this is wild. I took a lot of people's advice and got Midge microchipped yesterday, as well as I had a conversation with my mom that we resolved together. My landlord still refused to change my locks despite all this. This morning, Midge was taken. I called my aunt and uncle and they just laughed and to police and explained the situation showing proof I had ownership of Midge. When we went to my relatives house the police asked for her back but of course they refused. What made me even angrier was my cousin inside the house door open holding Midge with a shit-eating grin. Even though I had

Starting point is 00:37:17 all this evidence my relative slammed the door demanding a warrant. Police suggested I press charges and take it to small small claims court. I am but they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they the the the the the the the the the the the they. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their.

I'm the the take it to small small claims court. I am, but they couldn't do anything right there. Going home without Midge was so upsetting. I had to pull over it because I started crying. I contacted an attorney and my cousin keeps posting photos of Midge on her Instagram. I took the situation to the family group chat in anger and good news at least, everyone hates them now. My grandmother wrote my uncle and his family off the will, and of course they're calling me threatening me with Midge, and they'll make sure I go to jail for all this. I'm fairly confident in myself,

Starting point is 00:37:51 but I would be lying if I wasn't more concerned with Midge. I just want my baby back and I've been crying all day. God damn. There is the possibility that the other family is just fucking the That's also a thing. I mean, they're taking it to the next level. Like the grandmother's like, you're out of the will. It's like, what? I'm not, I'm not saying because it's just a cat. Trust me, as a pet owner, things get, that is a family member. Right. But it's also like, I can't tell who who's in the wrong here because it's like, the other, the other, the other, the other, the other, the other, the other, the other, thi is, I I I, I, I's, I's, I's, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, like, like, like, like, like, like, thi, thi, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th is like, th is, th is, th is, th is, th is, th is, th is, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, thi. I's, their, their, their, the cousin's gonna go this far to have the cops called on them? I always say how like, I am not good at, with stories that have to do with just families who are evil to each other on a level like this,

Starting point is 00:38:31 because I just didn't experience that. But I'm like, for her to be there with the cat, like, yes damn! This is the Helen of Troy of cats. It just all seems, this all seems so heightened that I'm like, I need to meet these people. Yeah. To know what's going on. I never want to meet people. I was like, you sure? No, I'll meet cucumber lady, but I don't want to. Me too. She just comes here, she's like, do you. to come here. She's like, do you. to? to. to. to just. to just. to come. th. th. th. to come. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. to come. th. th. to come. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the the th. th. th. th. th. th. I the. I the. I the. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. the. the. the. the. the. the. th. cucumber lady. She's just eating cucumber. Sorry we got a sound issue can you fucking stop? I will say you know Zelda my cat has two microchips because She's so chubby that the first one migrated and we can't find it It migratory it migrated to where that she put it If I knew that, we wouldn't need two microchits.

Starting point is 00:39:27 She's like, Zada. Like, they're just like, just like under each flap and fold. They're like, yeah, we're not finding it. And I'm like, oh, geez, what do I do? And they're like, you do another? You do another. I'm like, that the aunt and uncle are like viewing her as a college student who's also working as being like, you don't have time for a pet.

Starting point is 00:39:48 But you don't really have a lot of time when you're a college student. Right. Also. But I would also argue, I mean, a cat is a pet that you can have a pet that you can have a teat while being on a busy schedule. You still have to pay a lot of attention to it and to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to their their their their their their, their, their, their, take care of it. Maybe it's the family. This family could be thinking, oh, she doesn't have time for this cat. This cat's being neglected because of her situation. Not because she's a bad person, but because she's busy and maybe the family was.

Starting point is 00:40:13 But the way that they're going about it is fucking crazy. Yeah, they could have said, they could have been like, hey, like so busy like can we just take it's really hard to know who who's the asshole in this story? It's a weird it's a weird thing I mean I think you're an asshole for taking someone's property like you are like you have to like consistently you can't take someone's cat like you just can't I think unless you have really good cause unless it's like this cat that might die like yes but if you're just kind you you you you you you you you you you th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I th. I th. I thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi the thi the thi really good cause. Unless it's like this cat might die. Like, yes. But if you're just kind of like, I don't know, this situation's a little weird.

Starting point is 00:40:50 It's so bizarre. But all this whole thing is so weird. How easily all these people are swayed. The mom immediately believed like you're, yes, you're the bad person. And then it's like, but we we we we we we we we we. But we we. But we we. But we we. But we we. But we we. But we we. But we we. But we we're th. But we th. But we th. But we th. But we th.

I don't know. What the fuck? Communication. Yeah. Update number two, I just want to say, Midge is home. Small claims court came around and my attorney was very confident and helped me out so much.

Starting point is 00:41:14 She was very helpful and knew from the start we would win. I provided the judge everything. Yes, everything you guys commented as proof I own, I own her. Photos of her as a baby, proof I have paid for all vet bills since she was a baby, and proof I had Midge chipped. My landlord also helped. Although a lot of people were upset with him and telling me to move out, he was remorseful that his decision had consequences. I have forgiven him as his apology came with security footage of my aunt and uncle and taking Midge. We have been in North Carolina since the case. They have been

Starting point is 00:41:45 silent, most likely embarrassed. To end this on a good note, I wish I could have taken a picture of Tanya's face when she handed Midge back to me. That was messy. Dude, there's some deep-seated family stuff going on here. Yeah. With the cousin, like I think there's some opposing... Yeah. That's one of those, I mean like I said I feel, I feel, I feel, I feel, I feel, I feel, I feel, I feel, I feel, I feel, I feel, I feel, I feel, I feel, I feel, I feel, I feel, I feel, I feel, I feel, I feel, I feel, th, I feel, th.

I this is this is th, I think there's some opposing things with a family. That's one of those, I mean, like I said, I feel, it's not my place to ever tell people like, oh, you shouldn't talk to your family when I'm not. I'll say it. I'm not in that type of situation.

Starting point is 00:42:16 You know, like, I'm like, that's easy for me to say as someone who isn't in. but I, but, but, but, but, thin, thin, th. th. thin, thin, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I, I'm, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, to, like, like, to, like, like, to, th. th. to, like, th. th. to. to, like, to, to, like, like, like, I'm, I'm, like, I'm, like, I'm like, that level of vitriol where like, you're stealing shit from each other. I'm like, okay, I understand if you want to go no contact. So I think that's why I was so initially like tempted to be like, yes, there's more to it. Like, clearly, there's something with the animal. Because the only other possibility is those three aunt and the uncle are also supporting the crazy. And it's like, yep, security footage of them breaking in altogether. Okay. No. Yeah. Sorry.

Starting point is 00:42:48 On principle, all of these things, it's like, yes, there's a clear cut answer to all this. But when you're reading this story out and our initial reactions, it's like, the hell am weird and you're like okay Clearly they're foreshadowing that some weird stuff's about to happen. Yeah. That's what I feel when I'm reading this from like, Yeah, what are you not telling me? That's still true. They haven't hit Thanksgiving yet? Yeah, so weird stuff is absolutely about to have God damn. God damn. If any if any other updates happen? If any other? If any other th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th I th I th. I th.

I th. th. th. th. th. the. the. the. the. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the. the. the comments has more context on that story. Poor sweet little midge. But I, I hope that cat is okay. That cat's just like, God damn.

Starting point is 00:43:32 The cat's like, lights up a cigarette. Man, I've been living life, mom. Let me tell you a little story. Yeah, why don't you lay off the cat nip a bit, pal, I'll just some water. Nah, man. No, man, no tell me what to do. I'll leave. I can play piano. How?

Starting point is 00:43:52 Next story, this is one that I found. Oh, boy. I submitted this. I was like, this made me laugh. Let's read this. Am I the asshole for talking to a girl to a girl to a girl to a girl to a girl to a girl to a girl to a girl the girl the girl to a girl theing to a girl in a bikini on a beach? This is a 37-year-old man. Yes. My wife, who's 35, is making me write this post. She feels my behavior during our vacation was completely inappropriate, while I think that it was completely acceptable and she is wrong.

Starting point is 00:44:16 She loves this subreddit and wants for all of you to weigh in on our debate and solve this issue for us. We have been married for seven years and have a three-year-old toddler. A few weeks ago, we went to Miami for a vacation and had a fun time. On the second day on the beach, we were relaxing on the beach. My son and I were playing on the beach while my wife was soaking in the sun. I must add here that I love her very much, ever laid eyes on. Hear me out! At one point, my son wanted to build a sand castle and I took him to the wet sand near the water with all his plastic toys.

Starting point is 00:44:48 While he was playing a lady, mid-30s, walked up to us and told me how cute my son is. I smiled and said thanks. She was looking towards the watertop bikini that left nothing for imagination. According to me, I did not notice what she was wearing and had no comments. She was trying to make small talk and was asking me about my son's name, how old he is, where we are from, etc. I was also polite and had a brief conversation with her. We talked about where we are from, how long we were in Miami, etc. Finally, my son had enough and he wanted to go back. So I said by and came back and sat next to my wife.

Starting point is 00:45:29 The whole conversation may have lasted for less than 10 minutes. My wife was not happy with me talking to this lady. She kept on telling me how inappropriate was to talk to that girl in the tiny bikini and that she was trying to flirt, told, the, the, the, the, the, the th, th, and, th, and, th, th, th, and, th, and, th, the thi, and, thi, and, thin, and, and, and, and, and, thin, thin, and, and, and, the the the thi, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th, and th, th, th, th, th, th th th th th th thi, the thi, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, ti, too, too, tha, te, te, toda, te, tha te, tha tha tha tha tha, tha, tha, tha, tha was trying to flirt with me. I told her what we talked about, and it was not even remotely flirty. I told her that this is common, and when my son is with me in the park or other places, he gets a lot of attention from other moms, and they always come and have a chat. My wife has seen this play out better than talking to her. We saw that lady a few other times during our stay, and I cut

Starting point is 00:46:08 our conversation short every time she tried to talk to me. My wife cannot let this go. She thinks that I should admit that it's different to talk to a girl in a social setting versus when she is in a bikinian a beach. small talk with someone is fine irrespective of their state of dress or undress. So dear Reddit forum, please settle this debate for us. Is my wife correct that I am the asshole for talking to a girl when she is wearing a bikini? Or is she being unfair to that lady when she was wearing an appropriate outfit for the place where she was? Note that my wife will also be reading the replies, so please be nice when tellifthe's the the the the the the the the th how wrong she is. This pisses me off. There's an added, there's an added, there's one more paragraph added here. Wife here, I think he

Starting point is 00:46:51 wrote this post omitting key details. The girl on the beach was clearly flirting and leaning too close to him. She may not have said it explicitly, but you could see she was interested. She also kept on popping up in the resort, to the te. told to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the to the the the, the the, to the the, to, the the, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, toe, to, toe, toe, to, the, toe, toe, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, the, the, to, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their, they.e.e.e. they. they. they.e. they. they. they. they. their, they. There, their and tried to keep on talking to him throughout the week. It was disrespectful as she did not say a single word to me the whole time. I am not saying my husband was flirting with her, but he should have read her body language and shut her down. Plus, there are bikinis and there was her bikini. Something with her, something with her, clearly off. And I feel this go for me.

Starting point is 00:47:25 It's like, what is his power? Women get mad when men shame like women dressing sexy. So women need to stop shaming women who are wearing what they want to wear. Like, stop shaming women. Okay, she's wearing a tiny bikini. In Spain, they don't wear anything. Like, fuck off. I don't know. This makes me so mad. It's, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, tho, it's, it's, it's, tho, th is, th is, th is, th is, th is, th is, th is, th is, th is, th is, th is, th is, th is, th is, th is, th is, th is, th is, th is, th is, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi. thi. thi. thiiiiiiiiiiii. It's like, thii. It's like, thi. thi. thi. thi, thi. tiny bikini. In Spain, they don't wear anything. Like, fuck off.

Starting point is 00:47:45 I don't know, this makes me so mad. It's just like, I think maybe because it's like too close to home, like as a teenager when I wear bikinis, like wives would be like, don't look at her, she's a scarlet. And it's like, I'm in a fucking bikini. I have boobs. Sorry. I apologize in advance. Not my fucking problem. Like, I just like, this makes me so mad. I'm like, why are we so tightly wrapped around our husbands and wives and partners? They're human beings. Like, okay, if she was flirting with him, all right, he's a grown-ass man. Let him fucking handle it. And why don't you come up and introduce yourself?

Starting point is 00:48:26 Yeah. This shit bothers me so much. And maybe I'm like the 20% that feels this way. But it's just like, when a woman is like talking to my husband, I'm like, great. Get it. Like, you're human beings. Like, have a good little flirt, fine. Like, if there's an issue there, I will step in or he will step in. It just feels like there's a lack of trust. Like, I agree with that for sure.

Starting point is 00:48:52 How much is she, I don't know. And like the fact that he said she was sunbathing and I'm like, okay, well now her head pops up and she's watching him for 10 minutes. Like, I thi th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th, th, th. th, th, th, th. th, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi's, thi's thi's just just just theeeean, thi's just just thi theeeean, thi's just just just thi's just thi. ever be off is if the husband never mentioned like, oh I'm here with my wife or something like that, if he was specifically trying to avoid like not going to show you my ring hand and all the other, then like sure, but otherwise... If he's being weird, if he's like, he's like, he's with his son, he's like, he's with. the wife is probably sitting there all the feet of. I was gonna say like, what do you want him to do? Because she's like, well, you should have, like, she came up to him while his son is building a sandcastle. You can't be just like, hey, let's just move it over here.

Starting point is 00:49:29 Like, he is stuck in that location until the sun is done, doing his thing. And the lady's just like, there's just that. It just bothers me. Like, I, I, there's a couple aspects, because I, since I've seen this before, I've thought about this, there's a couple aspects. One is, I don't think there's any bikini that's too extreme when you're in Miami. Like, you went to Miami. And then you're going to be like, this bikini was crazy. Like, you went to the place. Like, you went to the place. Like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, if. Like, if she. If. If the. If she. If she's. If she's. If she's. If she's. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the's also... And that's in the cold regions.

Starting point is 00:50:05 That's where it's snowing. Anything goes in Italy. It's also, I really do think it speaks to like, do you trust your partner? Like, yeah, that's what it feels like. Because almost to a degree when you trust your partner and like some person's flirting with them, it's almost like, yeah, I mean, I I I I I I I I I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, yeah, I, that, I'm, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that, that's, that's, anything, anything, anything, anything, anything, anything, than, anything, anything, anything, than, than, than, than, than, than, than, than, than, than, than, than, than, than, than, than, than, than, than, than, anything, than, anything, than, than, anything, than, than, anything, than, than, that, than, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, thin, that's, thanananananananananananananan, anything, but like that level of like weirdness of like, Oh, I hope that attractive lady doesn't talk to him or else he's gonna leave me It's like damn imagine operating like that That's the thing that it boils down to in relationships in general. It's like okay. If someone's gonna cheat they're gonna cheat. And it's not gonna be you being like, oh, um, don't talk to her that's going to make them not do that. So like, why don't we focus on the stuff that's actually an issue as opposed to...

Starting point is 00:50:45 Stop blaming the freaking woman walking in a bikini on the beach. And that is the weird thing too, because at first I was like, well, if she is indeed flirting with him, then she's not getting the picture, perspective at least it's like well people come up and talk to us all the time it's never been an issue but it's an issue when bikini lady does it. Exactly and also like why don't you two work that out together and be like if it does become an issue then it is on him to be like you're right I'll let her know that I'm married but if they're always together she probably knows the thi. the the the their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. their. their. their. their. I's is. I's is their. I's is their. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I's is. I's is. I's is. I's is. I's is. I's is. I's is. I's is. I's is. I. I. I. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thin. th. I. th. th. th. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the.. Yeah. I don't know. What I realized thinking about it was just like, if this lady wasn't attractive,

Starting point is 00:51:29 if this wife didn't perceive this woman to be attractive, she wouldn't have a problem with this. If you've got to grab your husband by the arm because they're talking to a woman in bikini, on the woman in the bikini run into the sunset. Amen. Fucking A. That's like, literally, it's like, my wife is standing behind me as I type right now.

Starting point is 00:51:50 And she's like, do it better. She's like, wife here. And it's like, okay, babe, I get it. You might have been hurt, but like, that's between you and your husband. We can't like cage our partners so they never talk to other people. I just, but that is a very personal opinion with me. I have to make that very clear. Not everyone agrees with me on that, but like I enjoy when my partner like lives. Yeah, the only other aspect of this that I will flag is like,

Starting point is 00:52:23 okay, she keeps popping up all these places and she's only talking to him and she completely ignores. Okay, yeah. And I'm like, yeah, that's a little rude. Maybe he's having an affair. Oh yeah, he's for sure cheating. No. He keeps saying things like so nice to meet you for the first time here in Miami for the first time. But it's like for me, it's like, for that, for me, for me, for me, for me, for me, for me, for me, for, for, for, for, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that's like, that's like, that's like, that's like, that's like, that's like, that's like, that, that's like, that, that's like, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that's like, that's like, that's like, that's like, yeah, that's like, yeah, that's like, that's like, that's like, that's like, that's like, that's like, that's like, that's like, that's like, that's like, that's like, that's like, that's like, that's like, that's like, that's like, that's like, that's like, that's like, that's like, but you trust him, like he's not going to do anything, like, right? Also, intro, I don't know. And it sounds like he did cut it. She, he said and she agreed, like, he did cut it short, like whenever she would show up. That's why I always keep a flask of holy water on me, because if someone's like flirting and maybe unnecessary. Go away.

Starting point is 00:52:55 Go away. Yeah. listening. Some comments here... Stop, you're crazy. The verdict was not the asshole. Some comments, even so, he ignored her flirting so this should empower wife in the end. What was he supposed to do? Just tell her to F off? Sounds like not the asshole, but maybe it is one of those situations where you would need to really be there to judge properly. Someone said, not the asshole. I've been married 37 years. Your wife should let this go. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th th the. the. the. to to to to to to to to to to to to to the to the the thee the the the. the let this go. You were not trying to pick up, pick the woman up. You were at the beach. If anything, she should feel good that someone else thought you might be attractive. If your wife is half as beautiful as you say, then she has had plenty of guys talking

Starting point is 00:53:34 to her regardless of what she is wearing. Again, she should let it go. Otherwise, both of you are going to start to start to start to start to start to start to start to start to start to start to start to start to start to start to start to start to start to start to start to start to start to start to start to start to start to to to to to to the the th th th thi thi, thi, thi, thi, tho, tho, tho, thi, tho, thi, tho th. th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th thi, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the, slippery slope. Someone else said, I would say don't go to Miami on vacation if you don't want to see women in sexy bikinis who may or may not talk to your husband. Lastly, someone said, I never knew when I was being flirted with. One day I was talking with an attractive girl at a pet store. I guess I was flirting because we are pleasantly married to each other. Wow. If that ain't me.

Starting point is 00:54:06 Oh boy. But I also saw another comment that was like, I'm guessing your wife is not going to like this subreddit anymore. Because I love that she was like, you need to put this on Am I the assel. I'm like, dude, okay. Yeah, which also, separate thing. I don't think settling your feuds on Am I the Assuasul is always going to be great because what you're going to get is he wrote the post and then she had to

Starting point is 00:54:28 be like, wife here, clarification, like my side too. It's like, nobody's on the internet's going to have the full picture. Never. We don't have the full picture. But I do love with the guy who's been married, thired, thired, thired, thired, thired, thi, thi, thi, thi, th, th, thi, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, to, thi, to, to, thi, thi, thi, the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. thi, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th, th, the th, th... thi, thi, thi, to to thr. to to toeeeeeat, throoooooooooooooooooooooo. too. toe, toe, the. thi is like, if that is true, then what else is true is like, are you going to start monitoring everything they do? That's the thing, if someone is going to cheat, they're going to cheat. Like, that's not, that flirting isn't the issue. Like, do you trust your partner?

Starting point is 00:54:57 Right. Yeah. No, I fully agree with that and I've I've a long time ago been in situations where that trust was gone and it's just like it just sucks it's just awful and if if you really trust your partner it's like you just really need to keep trusting them and you just both need to keep talking but allowing that trust and also showing you have that trust I th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. the th. th. th. th. th. th. the. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. te teeeeeeeeean. tean. tean. try. try. try. tea try try te thi. thi. thi. to keep talking, but allowing that trust and also showing you have that trust I think is really, really attractive and great. And it's so comforting to just be like, oh, I don't have to think about this shit. Like if someone comes up and talks to me and my partner's nearby, I'm like, I'm not going to do anything. I don't't like be like... I also... You use that on the entirety of the human population that's the gender you would be attracted

Starting point is 00:55:49 to to be able to talk to at all. Yeah, no. I also think it's a thing in LA in our industry. You can't think that way because just everywhere you go, there's just so many attractive attractive people. If you go to a party, like to to to to to to to go, to their, their, their, their, their, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, their, their, thi, their, thi, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, their, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, their their their their their their their their their their their their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, th.. their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, the LA, attractive people are going to be talking to your partner. I only hang out with parties personally. No, but like everyone has their own like style, everyone's like... I always think this guy is like, because from my perspective I feel I've never been flirted with in my entire life and I think I just don't know how to... I flirt with you every day, I don't know how to I don't know how to read it. I this this this this this this this this this th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th.

I don't know how to read it. So I think this guy's like that where he's just like, oh, this lady's just talking to me. I can't like, it's just like, very similar. I think I just, I think I would be in the same way. I was just like, yeah, situations where like, I'm hanging out with somebody and then later they're like,

Starting point is 00:56:45 so, what do you want to do? And I'm like, oh shit. And I was just like, I didn't even real, oops. What? Sorry. Get a mile away. A guy's like, hey, yeah. And we're like, here we go.

Starting point is 00:57:25 That's what Reddit is! Why didn't you post on him by the asshole! You don't just go like, okay, well, I think she said enough. You guys didn't need to comment. Uh, not about him. Uh, I thought this forum would back me up, but I guess I need to to take this L this this this this this this this this this this L this L this L this and caring husband and an amazing kid. I am also used to women flirting with him all the time. It's not just when our son is with him, but it has happened at his work, bars, weddings and other places.

Starting point is 00:57:51 The worst was when I was giving birth to our son and the nurse helping with the birth told him that his hair looks like prince charming.

The worst part is he is not very perceptive when women flirt with him. He thinks that most women go around talking to strangers and compliment them on their looks because that is his life experience. When I try to tell him that he always gets very defensive. I do trust him with all my heart though and he is the best husband the the thagagag. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thus, thrown, thrown, thrown, thr-of, thr-of, thrown, thi, thi, the, the, the, the the, the, the, the, the, the, the, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thin, thrown, thrown, thrown, thrown, thrown, thrown, thrown, thrown, thr-a. thrown, thr for me to not seem like an asshole when I write this, but this is what I saw. We were all enjoying our time on the beach. My son wanted to run around and my husband volunteered to watch him and let me relax.

Starting point is 00:58:32 I was enjoying the ocean and occasionally watching them. At one point I saw my husband and son sitting on sand see again and now this lady is sitting next to my husband and they are talking. I also noticed she was extremely attractive and of course I got a bit insecure since I have a mom-bod now. She is laughing at God knows what my husband said. At this point I started getting curious and was waiting for my husband. to look towards me. He finally got up after my sonnenenene. the son. to the son. the to the the to to the the the the the to. I. I. I. I the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. I was, I, I was, I was, I was, I was th. I, I was, I was th th th th th the th th the the th.

I asked my husband who the person was, and he said, just some mom on the beach having a small talk. I asked him what you guys were talking about, and he said the same things he wrote here.

Starting point is 00:59:14 I told him she was gorgeous, and did he notice what she was wearing. yeah that's pretty bold. The whole incident rubbed me the wrong way. Then this lady kept on popping up everywhere we went and we met her every day. Staying at the hotel! My husband introduced me to her the first time we saw her and she just walked right past me and started talking with him. I then told my husband I was not comfortable with his new girlfriend. I was teasing him and my husband then immediately blew her off next time she showed up. When. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the th. th. th. the th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, the thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th.

When we came back I told him about my insecurity when I saw him talk to her and she was sitting next to him. He again got defensive and told me that he was just being polite. This is when I told him not to talk to gorgeous moms and bikinis. He felt I was attacking him but I could not help what I felt and was just communicating it to him. This was the silly debate we were having and I thought you guys would have my back.

Starting point is 01:00:07 Anyways, I will try to work on my insecurities and let him talk to moms and bikinis. One PSA is please don't comment on that thread anymore and tell him how right he is. You guys are feeding the beast. Last night, he was sending me links to frames on Amazon because he wanted to print out out out out out out out out, the the them, them, them, them, them, them, them, them, them, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, thr, thr, thr, thr, thr, thr, I, I, thr, thi, thi, and I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is.e.e.e.e.e.e.e.e.e.e.e.e.e.I. I'm, I'm t print out this thread and put it on a wall. He says it's his first win against me and the next time we have a disagreement he can point to it and tell me about the time when thousands of people told me I was wrong. Oh she's so controlling. This is not a silly debate. No. This goes back the back that you're hanging on to the nurse calling him Prince Charming. That to me is crazy. The fact that you're hanging on to the nurse calling him Prince Charming. That to me is crazy. Gay birth, it's like, I don't understand why that's a negative.

Starting point is 01:00:49 And I get it, like, yes, having a child changes you, like, mom bought. I can understand, but you have to look inward, lady, like, that was the clearest thing in the world. Like, you have to stop commenting, it's like, yeah, telling the internet the internet the internet the internet the clearest thing in the world like you have to stop commenting it's like yeah telling the internet to stop commenting in what world hey it's this seems like there's something going on with you that you have to look at yeah this is my first win against her no she's she's she's an asshole for going to Reddit and posting on Am I the asshaw and being upset with the responses and telling them to stop like she has to Reddit and posting on Am I the Assel and being upset with the responses and telling them to stop like she has to delete her account now because yeah it's just gonna have her AT&T just calls her like we can't supply

Starting point is 01:01:32 internet anymore I know where the only one's a fiber you can't do it we can't we heard what you said oh you're not allowed to talk to gorgeous women in bikinis also I can't stand't stand, you know, women or men. It was just like, that person was gorgeous, right? It's a test. Fishing. It's a freaking test. It's like. And his response was probably the best

Starting point is 01:01:53 that he could have said. It's like, you see her bikini. Like, what else you're gonna say? I will say, there. I will say, there there there there there there there a sleeper hold if they try to flirt again. That's what in her perspective that's what she should have you... She's like hey have you... She's gonna... Shhh! I just love... Oh she was casually looking. Yeah. It's, honey, look over here I'm just... Oh, he can't see me! He's like... He's letting you rest.

Starting point is 01:02:25 He starts where he's like, huh? No, I'd say about an eight inches probably. What are you saying, hon? I don't get the big deal is. Fuck. God damn. Well, she'll probably be happy that we're telling the story now. Oh, she doesn't have internet.

Starting point is 01:02:39 She's fine. All right. the assu for letting my boyfriend touch my surrogate bump, upsetting my sister? Okay. Uh, hi Reddit, so last year I, a 29 year old woman, agreed to be a surrogate for my sister, let's call her N and her husband, both 27. Due to an unfortunate high likelihood of infertility diagnosis in my sister, they didn't have the funds to hire an actual surrogate, and I am basically the only

Starting point is 01:03:10 person they're actually close with that has a child, a requirement to be a surrogate, meaning I was essentially their only option. I didn't love the idea at first, but after watching them last two years and some light insistence from my sister, I said okay. They did agree to pay me some form of compensation, but from Googling it, it seems like it's maybe 30% of what it would normally cost. Anyway, fast forward to today, and I'm seven months along, and all has gone realistically pretty well. My sister has definitely been checking in on me all the time, but I can't really blame her for that, but the problem occurred a couple of tod, thapapapapapapapapapapapapap, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, the th, the thi, the th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, the the thi, the the the the the th, th, it, it, th, the the th, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th, th, the th, th, th, th, thee, thee, thee, thee, thee, thr-auu-au-s, thr-s, thr-s, thr-s, thr-s, thee, thr-s, thee, thee, thee, the occurred a couple days ago. So a couple months ago, I met a guy at a work event. Let's call him C, and we hit it off. He has a couple of kids of his own, so he doesn't mind anything about my situation

Starting point is 01:03:52 and it's been going really well. Now that we've been together for a couple months, I wanted to introduce him to my sister, so I set up a dinner in the car I already felt like she was upset but didn't think anything of it. We sat down at the restaurant and waited until C. he arrived. He came over and greeted us giving me a kiss and quickly rubbing my belly, nothing really out of the ordinary, but I could see my sister's eyes bulged. I was super confused. I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I was super confused, I, I was super confused, I was super confused, I was super confused, I was super confused, I was super confused, I was super confused, I was super confused, I was thined, I was thaged, I was thin, I was thin, I was thi, I was th th th th themed, I was, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, th, I, I, I, I, I, th, I, th, I, I, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, and, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, and thi, thi, thr-a, and thr-a, thr-s, thr-s, thr-s, thr-s, and, thr-s, and thr-s about our night and she played nice-ish, but was pretty quiet.

Starting point is 01:04:26 And honestly, it was a pretty awkward meal. When we left and I got back in the car, she just unloaded onto me, saying how weird it was that he kept touching my belly. I asked her what the hell she was talking about, and she said that apparently he basically had his hands on it the whole night, and also that it was super weird because it's her baby. I just rolled my eyes and told her, regardless of it being her baby, it was my body, which just made her even more mad. I don't know. She hasn't talked to me in the last two days over this.

Starting point is 01:04:53 I really don't feel like she has any right to police physical intimacy between me and my boyfriend, just because I'm seeing this this this this the baby........ I's, I's, the the the the the thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, and I'm, and thr-s, and thi, and th tolde, and tolde, and told, and told, and told, and tho, and tho, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, tho, and, and, and, and, and, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is the the the the the the the the the the the the the thi, thr.. thr. thr. thr. t t t toean. too, too. too, too, too. too. tolde. too, tolde. told told told t t t t a boyfriend. Obviously he's going to touch my bump. Am I the asshole? Edit, just because I'm seeing this a lot, baby is not biologically mine, it's her and her husband's. I'm a gestational surrogate. Also, maybe I undersold it in my initial description, but he did touch it a lot more than just when he greeted us. He basically had his hand on it the whole time while we weren't eating. I didn't really think anything weird about it but figured I'd clarify. Now uh-oh. This is so messy. This is so met. I do just just first off the bat I think if you your sister is going because I've I've heard this happen before just having a sister be a surrogate. I think you have to really go over like some ground rules before. That's a big undertaking.

Starting point is 01:05:51 Because you, the part of like watching their every move, like you've got to go over some ground rules. Other than that, this story is messy. Oh yeah, super messy. I, so many different directions. What do you think? I think that, you that, I, I, I,... So many different directions. What do you think? I think that, you know, I was sort of on board with like, yeah, this is messy, could go either way, but like something that sort of like, ning-a-ning-ning for me is, okay, she met

Starting point is 01:06:15 this guy while she was pregnant and he keeps rubbing her tummy. Now I was going to make the joke of like, oh, if she doesn't, you know, if she's mad even doesn't talk to you, you're gonna see her within two months for sure. But also like, oh, if you hate touching the belly, like, they probably still have sex right now. I don't totally. Totally. Necessarily have to assume, but like, it's likely. So if he's met her when she's pregnant, and they're having lot. That like, it's worth looking at. That's a possibility. That's the top.

Starting point is 01:06:48 Wait, what are you saying? That's the top comment. That's the top comment. Oh, he's into pregnant women. So the top comment here is not the asshole, but I'd keep an eye on the boyfriend. I'm pregnant with my husband only touches the bump when I ask him if he wants to feel a kick. Your very new boyfriend, having his hands on the bump all the time, is strange to me and I'd be worried about a kink.

Starting point is 01:07:10 But your sister has no business policing how you live your life as long as you're medically healthy and needs to take a step back and remember what an incredible favor you are doing for her and her husband. I like, I like, I like, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I like, I, I, I like, I, I, I, I like, I like, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I like, I like, I like, I, I like, I like, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I'm. I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I. And, I to. I to. I to. I to. I to. I to. I to. I to. I to. I to. I to. I to. I, I to. I, I, I, I, I, I, I, like, like, like, like, I, like, I, like, like, th. th. to, th. th. th. to, to, to. to. to. to. to. to. to. that. That's kind of how I feel. The boyfriend, when she clarified, I was like, ooh. Yeah. But the sister. No, it's a lot. That's a lot. And it is her body.

Starting point is 01:07:32 It's like, your surrogacy is a, it's a big deal. It's a, I don't, the sister's being. the sister's being. I don't, the sister's, the sister's, the sister's, the sister's, the sister's, the sister's, the sister, th. I also understand why like that's an emotional crazy place she's in. But she also needs to check herself and be like, oh, but that's your body. And you're carrying my baby, but that's your body and your boyfriend's allowed to, like, when you're in relationship, you're allowed to do what you want there, like. But I think we sort of have a diverging path here now though, because like, I agree that in any other case, the sister telling her about her body, like, not great unless

Starting point is 01:08:05 you know, they laid it out in the ground rules beforehand and that was a breach of that. And I will also say, to clarify, it's not that a pregnant woman cannot be attractive. It's that this guy is really sort of going for the stomach. So if the sister is picking up on that and is watching this new boyfriend rub all over the stomach constantly and then gets in your mind like, oh, this might be a king for him. That's when I would be like, what the fuck? And I feel like maybe I would be angry too, you know. Totally. But that's then maybe something you'd want to discuss with your sister as opposed to you can't let someone touch the belly.

Starting point is 01:08:34 But is she protecting her sister or like put myself in the situation because obviously I haven't gone through this but like it's for me it'd be more a matter of like oh my baby in in your body yes but my baby is now somehow party to this creepy man who has a kink about it that would feel uncomfortable to me even if I can't fully define exactly what it is. But it is her, I agree with you, that's why it's messy. Because it is, it is her body, it is her decision, but it is their baby and it's also like they should have went over some ground rules before. Yeah, I'm not saying she's right, I'm saying like, I don't even know. I don't know who's, I don't know, I don't know who's, I don't know. Yeah, I don't know who, I don't know who. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I'm, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't know, I don't their. I their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their. It is their. It is their. I their. It's their. It's their. It's their. It's their, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I their, it is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th. It is th is th is th. It is th is their their their their their their their. It. Yeah, this is a situation I'm super foreign to. You know, like, I would, it'd be interesting to have someone here who's gone through surrogacy to talk about that.

Starting point is 01:09:32 But it's just, it's a lot. It doesn't sound like, she doesn't quote anything that what the sister said was, she said, she said, he basically had his hands on it the whole night and it was super weird because it's her baby. The whole night you're eating food like yeah. What is? But I do think that comment that comment is very valid and I understand like if she were to be like hey I think this is a kink for him and that that that feels weird for me and it like and I would feel weird too. That's why I want to know was the sister upset because she was trying to protect her sister in that situation? It doesn't seem like it control over the baby. But it also seems like maybe she doesn't even know why she's upset like or she just is just

Starting point is 01:10:11 upset by what she's seeing. She might just be upset by the whole thing. Maybe like seven months in and she's probably like yeah the verdict was not the asshole which I think is completely fair. I agree. Because we're going th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the the the th. the th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the th. th. the th. th. th. the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. to. to to to to to to to to to to to the the to the the the the the. the the. agree. Because we're going on this Possibility that this that this guy She's having a baby for her sister. It's another one where it's like if I was there and you're at dinner with these people and you see it It's like this could be very different than what we're like. This guy could really be like? This guy could really be like? This guy could really this guy could really thi thi thi. This guy. This this this this this this this guy this guy this guy could this guy could this guy could this guy could this guy could this guy could this guy could th. th. this guy could this guy could th. th. this guy could this guy could could this guy could could could could could this guy could th. this guy could could could th. this guy could th. this guy could this guy could this guy this guy this guy this guy this guy this guy this guy could really this guy could really this guy could really this guy could really this guy could really this guy could really this guy could really th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi th. thi thi the thi the thi this guy could this this guy could this th. th. th. th. the tummy. It's also it's also a thing yeah it's also a thing where it's not like a boyfriend that they've known for a long time like that's kind of part of the family it's like it's a new boyfriend so he's a little bit of a stranger so it's also like oh this stranger has his and it's like yeah I I think at the very least not the asshole, but there's an update. She had the baby, and it's his.

Starting point is 01:11:08 Oh no! I'm just kidding. And the baby ordered tequila shots. You can't drive? Baby's like, eh? It's been over a month since my original post, and was surprised by how much interest the post, so I figured I owe you guys an update.

Starting point is 01:11:20 Sister update. On the sister front, all as well, to to to to to th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, the, the, the, the, thoome, thoome, thoome, over very shortly after my post some complicated emotions we had to work through But we were in a good place now It is too long to get into here, but I can tell you on this front. It was a happy ending and she is very excited to meet her baby next month Boyfriend update. This one went a little different. Yeah, all right. Yeah, how different is it? Yeah. There were a lot of people in the comments suggesting he had a pregnancy fetish, which previously to my post I didn't even know existed.

Starting point is 01:11:53 Got a Ken Bone in here, guys. Oh boy. I pondered on it, but wasn't really sold on the idea, and coincidentally he actually went on a work trip for about three weeks shortly after, so he didn't really talk until he he'sto town, which was about a week and a half ago now. Honestly, when he came back, I'd almost forgotten about that as a possibility. So when I went to see him for the first time in nearly a month at his apartment, and

Starting point is 01:12:15 he instantly lifted up my shirt and told me how much bigger I had right, I did actually grow a lot and it seemed like a normal enough reaction, but looking back on it now, it wasn't even like he hugged me or greeted me or gave me a kiss. It was just straight away right to my bump. Oh boy. We ended up getting dinner with one of my friends later that same night, again me still in some form of either denial or just in attention, I guess just like the last time. I didn't really notice his behavior being weird, but when he went home and I went with her to her house, she had some questions similar to my sister. Is that not exhausting for you? She asked me? that's not exhausting for you, she asked me, thiaugge to me. to the to'e. that the belly touching and rubbing and the comments and the jokes and stuff, she followed me. It's. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thee. thee. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. thee. the. the, the, the, the. She had the. She had the. She had the. She had the. She the. She, the. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She the. She the. She the. She the. She the. She the. She the. She the. She the. She had the. She had the. She had theee. She had theeeeeeeeeeea. She had theeeee. She had thee. She had the. She had the. She had some some some th me all the time, even you do. Sure, I'll make some every now and then, but in a one-hour dinner, he made so many. Like he described you as his over-inflated girlfriend.

Starting point is 01:13:14 Something about, something about being ready to pop, something else about a balloon, and I know there were others I'm forgetting. Hearing it now from my sister, my friend, and from Reddit, it finally kind of clicked for me that maybe in fact everyone else was right. I had her drop me at his place and I confronted him about it. Not an aggressive way or anything, but just asked him if it was true. To my surprise, he looked at me in surprise and just said, uh, yeah, I thought you knew. Sorry, I thought it was kind of obvious. We had a long talked to to to to to to to to to to to be. to be. to be. to be. Oh, to be. Oh, to be. Oh, to be. Oh, to be. Oh, to be. Oh, to be. Oh, to be. Oh, their, their, their, th. Oh, thi. Oh, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. It. It. It. It. It. It's, thr. It's, thr. And, thr. thr. thr. thr. thr. thr. thr. thr. thr. thr. thr. thr. thr. thr. thr. really think a fetish is an inherently bad thing and people like to make them more taboo than they need to be.

Starting point is 01:13:49 While his behavior was obviously something strange, it was never violent or honestly and it never even upset me. I told him I would think about whether I wanted to continue seeing him. You've got a month? Yeah. That's it. I told him I would think about whether I wanted to continue seeing him, which he was okay with and gave me space. I haven't really reached out to him yet, but I am thinking about it, as I did enjoy the time we spent together, even regardless of his inclinations. Anyway, those are the updates. Hope you enjoyed the happy and sort of happy ending for both? So I th th th th th th th th that that th that th that th that th th that th th th that th th th he he he he he he he he he he he th th thus thus thus thus thus thus that that that that thus thus thus that that that that that that. thi thatheatheat. th. th. heat. heat. he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he th. th. he th. th. th. he that he he that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that he that does put a lot of context,

Starting point is 01:14:27 because if he was saying, she seems to just be, have been oblivious, right? That like he's calling her his overinflated girlfriend, all this stuff. I now understand the sister being like, hey, a lot of that's a little out of pocket. I'm really glad that the sisters, they're good. I'm really glad about, because that's the most important thing thing th of th of th of th of th of th of th of th of th of th of th of thi thi thi thi thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's that's that's. that's. that's that's. that's that's that's that's that's that's that's th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. that's thi. thi. thi. that's thi. that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's little out of pocket. I'm really glad that the sisters... They're good. I'm really glad about, because that's the most important thing. Agreed. But what is he gonna do when she has the baby and she's not pregnant anymore?

Starting point is 01:14:51 He's gonna be like, I sold this basketball, quick, they're coming. Would you hide it for me? And I also, look, he's like, yeah, absolutely. Now, my only thought, because yes, there's nothing wrong with fetishes or kinks amongst consensual adults. However, he knew he was going to dinner with like the person who's the surrogate,

Starting point is 01:15:15 like the receiving the surrogacy, I'm assuming. I'm assuming. I'm assuming. But he must have mixed company. It's just like, hey, in that situation, man, like, maybe just. He's loud and proud with his kinks. Not here. But here's the thing with kinks though, like, every, I don't like it. So here's the thing.

Starting point is 01:15:36 I don't like it when people are involved in them before they realize it. Like it's the same thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing things things things things. things. things. I things. I things. I things. I things. I thi. I thi. I thi. I thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. I'm, th. I'm, th. I's th. I's, th. I's, th. I's, th. I's, th. I's, th. I. I. I's, th. I. I's, th.

Like it's the same thing where like, I'm not going to kink shame, but when you see those like posts where it's like, oh, someone had like a leash on the subway, like, it's not a matter of like someone doing it. It's like, okay, you're involving people. It's like, will you hold the leash? Like, I've heard about that he was like, oh, I thought you knew, it was kind of obvious. That's possible that that's what he meant. It's also, I think, a manipulation tactic to be like, oh, you're caught. Yeah, I thought we were all on the same page.

Starting point is 01:16:10 Oh, aren't you chill about it? It's clear that she didn't know. Yeah, it's clear that she didn't know. that's wasn't communicate. It's wasn't communicate. It's. It's. It's. that. that's. the. tho. that's. tho. that's. tho. that's. that's. the that's. that's. thi. that's. that's that's that's that's that's that's that's thi. the that's that's that's that's that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. that's. th. th. th. the the the the the the the the the the the th. the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thee. thea. thea. thea. thea. that's, I's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's biologically or not, it's someone else there and you're having a conversation about like, yeah, my basketball girl there, like, it's... She's about to pop. It made, it made the friend uncomfortable too. The friend was like, that was a lot. the friend was like, that was a lot. And she didn't write that he was brii. that the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to, to. to, to, to, to, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the.

And, there's a lot to unpack in that story.

Starting point is 01:16:45 I'm very curious in the comments down below, like, people's thoughts on it, because, yeah. That's one that I got a process. Like, I'm like, I'm going to be thinking about that one for the next week of just all the, like, levels to it. Yeah, I definitely don't think she's like in a new world. She's like I'm having a baby for my sister, pregnancy kink, like, whoa. It's a lot of things thrown at her.

Starting point is 01:17:11 Yeah. Damn, those are some crazy ones. Those are some like weird. Those are some mind boggling ones. Yeah, and it's, I should clarify for people, we're reading these at 9.30 in the morning. Woo! So it's like first, first thing of the day. Waking and bike. Get in the stuff. From cucumber to surrogate, I don't know, man.

Starting point is 01:17:31 Yeah. From cucumber to surrogate, the Shaunnel. And the dolls, I I also like how like polarizing some of these were. We're like, we never flat-out disagreed but there were a couple moments where we were like, oh well I kind of see it this way. Yeah, kind of, but we don't, like, that's a fun conversation to have. It's true. I they're almost all of these stories are ones where I'm like, if I was there, my opinion might have been different. Yeah, but I'm taking these at face value. Right. Some good stuff. Thank you both for being here. Hey, oh my god, that was a blast. This has just been so cool being with you guys.

Starting point is 01:18:16 That was a blast. Yeah, anytime. Anytime. Anytime. Thank you guys for watching. the. And we'll see you next Saturday. Get out of here. Bye! You know, a cucumber sounds really good right now, though.
