Welcome back to Reddit Stories. I'm Shane. And today, it's the classic Am I the Ashole post that we all love and hate. I am joined by Olivia and Amanda.
Starting point is 00:00:56 Hello. Hello. Hello. How are you both doing? Fantastic. I'm doing really good. We're hungry. I'm hungry. I just keep talking about food. Yeah. It's a mistake. It's early in the morning right now.
Starting point is 00:01:10 Yes it is. But you are just glowing. Yeah, you are glowing. Really? Thank you. I actually, I got sun last week. But you that's this morning, I plunged my face in like a bowl of ice water. It wasn't like super cold, but it was like a little bit.
Starting point is 00:01:27 Oh, that's good for you. That's so good for you. It's good for your nervous system, right? It's good for your nervous system. I just did it to kind of wake up and I was like, all right. Wow. Wow. Anyways, are we ready for stories? Yes. Here we go. Our first story from Am I the
Starting point is 00:01:45 Asshole? Am I the asshole for not telling my boss about his boogers every day? Buggers? About his boogers. Oh boy. This is so asinine, but here we are. My boss and I have client-facing positions so we talk to people face-to-face every day. My boss is also six-four and I'm five-five so I'm constantly looking up to talk to him. I'm not sure if it's because of the allergies or what but every single day he has buggers in his nose that are clearly visible. And every single day I tell him you have buggers in your nose. I try to tell him before he sees anyone else wants that embarrassing situation. This has been going on for weeks, every single day without fail. This is where I may be the asshole. I decided to stop telling him.
Starting point is 00:02:29 He's a grown man in his 30s, and I started to feel like his mom having to tell him to blow his freaking nose every once in a while. He's aware this happens every day. It's not new. I feel like he needs to start taking preventative measures or at at at at at at at at at at at at at at at at at at at at at at at at at at in a mirror at some point. On Friday I didn't tell him and he had a meeting. Apparently the other person he knows personally jokingly handed him a tissue and didn't make a big deal out of it but he was super upset with me for not giving him a heads up. Like I said I get it. It's an embarrassing thing that happened but my job description does not include
Starting point is 00:02:58 check boss knows every day for bears in the cave. I was venting to my spouse who told me he can see where it would get annoying, but I needed to be a decent person and let him know. I have been for weeks, but at what point is the booger-havers responsibility to handle their own hygiene? Edit to add, my boss wasn't checking the last few days because, since you stopped telling me, I figured I didn't have them anymore which makes no sense he obviously never checked. Why is he putting that all on the other person? If I guess to a certain degree of like this guy should be a little more self-conscious. And it's bats in the cave. It's bats in the cave. I was like bears in the cave. Yeah it's bats in the cave. Yeah it's bats in the cave. Yeah it's like bears in the cave. Yeah bears bears bears bears bears bears bears bears bears bears in bears in bears in 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 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 the the the the the the the the the the the the their their their their their is bears are bears are bears are bears are bears are bears are bears are bears are bears are bears are bears are bears are bears are bears are bears are bears are bears are bears are bears. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. their their theirs. theirs. theirs. theirs. theirs. their's bears are bears. B. B. B. B. B. their's bears had bears in the cave you need assistance. You haven't heard, do I have any bags?
Starting point is 00:03:45 Bears in the cave, you need to go to the bathroom. Yeah, you need to, oh, hello. Oh, yeah. If someone told me that once, or even like two days in a row, I'd be like, oh my God. I'd be checking every, I'd be like, yeah, I'm aware. I love picking my nose. It's truly like... Very satisfying. It's the most, well yesterday, not to talk about me right now, but yesterday I was like having a really intense conversation with Sam and I was just standing in the kitchen just like going so deep in there and it was like
Starting point is 00:04:19 such an intense conversation and and and and then I'm like embarrassed now by... No, you're not embarrassed. Well, Sam loves you. He does, but the conversation we're having was so like serious. And I was just like going in there. Like, yeah. But anyways, I love picking my nose. I don't know why you're, maybe your boss should find enjoyment and just digging in those caves. Just get in there. Get in there. That's going to be released. I'm not thi th. I th. You th. You th. You th. You th. You th. You th. You th. You th. You th. You th. You th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th thi thi th thi thi thi thi thi thi th th th th th th. You're not th.

Just get in there get in there. That's going to be released. Especially after doing it for so long but to have the expectation of like you're the person who needs to tell me that is crazy. Being so upset. Yeah I would not
Starting point is 00:04:57 expect to have any of them. I am also do you think you're I think you both are probably pretty good at letting people know if they have like, something in their nose or like something in their teeth. I can't look at them in the face without telling them. And so I feel like you are very, like, I get so awkward, like I get so awkward. I feel like, I feel like, thrown the bandit and go, you have something on your face and then be like, all right, it's okay. But if you say it just so straight away, it's never awkward. Exactly. You just go like, oh, you got something in your teeth.
Starting point is 00:05:29 The worst part is if you wait, because you're like, I have waited because I'm like, I don somehow. And then you wait and then they're like even more upset. They're like, dude, I had something, I remember I was serving a table and I had lipstick all over my teeth. And I talked to this table for like 10 minutes about like life and like LA and one of them just moved here. And I was like, yeah, and I was outside, it was a little hot and I came back and my friend was like dude what happened did you eat lipstick like I was like that table didn't say anything and they were like oh bummer and now I like don't respect them I know I think you should tell especially if it's your friend you need to tell them oh yeah for sure or you do this
Starting point is 00:06:22 other thing which I don't recommend. Oh, no. I don't recommend this, because it's bad, but you just keep staring. No. Olivia? Olivia, no. No, but then, and then you start to realize, like, oh, maybe there's something in my nose or my teeth, but you just keep staring when they're... What? Don't do it. Don't do it. And this is worse too, where you go. I mean, this is fine. No, you can do this, but sometimes you do this, and then people go,
Starting point is 00:06:50 oh, and you're like, no, I had an itch. Oh, God. I feel like, Amanda, if you were in this woman's situation, you would have, you would have, eventually tell this boss. Hey, thi thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. thu. th. th. thi. 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. 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. to, to. to. thee. to. to. the. to. the. the. the. the. the. thi to check on this. Oh, I absolutely would have. I would have been like, hey, it is not in my job description to tell you that you have bats in the cave. Dude, you got to work on it. I'm not going to tell you. But maybe they're sick. Well, she's saying maybe it's allergies. Maybe they asshole at all.
Starting point is 00:07:25 I have a hard time even telling a friend that, though I know I should. Maybe suggest he buy a compact mirror to check himself before meetings. LMAO, that is so crazy and gross. Someone said, not the asshole, but you sort of have designated yourself as the third time, I would just accept that he is a booger man now and not say anything. L.M. A.O. A. O. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A. A.

I really hate it. I- I- I- I- I- Struggling. Yeah, the word, what else could you call that? There's no good word for it. It's not? It's not.
Starting point is 00:08:12 It's not. It's not. A bug. A bug. A little buggy. You got a little bugge. I'm really grossed out by boogers, so. You are? Like not horribly so, but I'm just like, I'm not that grossed out by it. I do sometimes go in there.
Starting point is 00:08:29 Oh, I get in there. Like I said. Yeah, for sure. Okay, next story. Great. This comes from Am I the asshole? Am I the asshole for wanting to sleep in comfortable pajamas at my boyfriend's house. Okay. So last night was my 24-year-old woman
Starting point is 00:08:48 first sleepover with my new boyfriend who's 29 of two months. He bought me a gift of lingerie. It is beautiful but not comfortable. I think of this particular lingerie as the sort of thing you only wear for five minutes at a time when your partner takes it off. Ha ha, which is essentially what happened. I wore the laundry for the laundry for tha for which is essentially what happened. I wore the laundry for him. He took it off.
Starting point is 00:09:06 We were intimate. It was lovely. But then the trouble started when we were ready to sleep. I went to put on the pajamas I packed, which is men's boxers. I bought it specifically for pajamas. It wasn't an exes or anything. And a t-shirt I the the the t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t-a t-a tb-a tb-a tb-a-a-s. tb-a-a-s. tb-a-s. tb-a-a-a-a-a-a-s. the tb-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a 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 tho-a tho-a tode. tie. tie. tie. tie. tieuuu. tieu. trie. tri-s. tri-s. tm-s. tm-s. tm-s. tr-s. tr-s. tr-s. tr-s. tr-s. tr-s. tr-s. tm-s. tm-s.to sleep, and I didn't think it should be any different with my boyfriend. But he asked why I didn't put the laundry back on. Did I not like it?
Starting point is 00:09:28 I said that I loved it, but it was a bit scratchy to actually sleep in. He said, what the hell was my outfit? Why was I dressed like a man? I said, I always sleep me dressed like a man. So I caved and put the laundry back on. I'm now lying awake because the laundry is scratching my nethers. He is my first boyfriend I could actually seep over with. I've been single since high school so I admit I don't really know the etiquette. Am I the assu-a What is happening? What is actually... I'm unwell. What are we discussing? This is so... What year is it? Freaked up? This is so freaked up. Nobody wears
Starting point is 00:10:15 lingerie to bed. Yeah, no one's like, dude, dude, duet, okay, bedtime. No. No one does that. No one does that. Nobody does that. This guy is a piece of shit, especially like after, after they got intimate, he's still like- Put it back on? Yeah, put it back on? Like, I'm like- He sounds a little homophobic.
Starting point is 00:10:37 Well, yeah, he doesn't like her dress. Like, you're dressed like a man. Yeah, like, what the fuck? It's just like, dude. I'm really upset. I want to, this person, you are so stupid. You are literally stupid, and you should be ashamed of yourself. Why don't you put on the lingerie if you like it so much? That is so true. I would love to see a man, put on lingerie and go to bed. Although, it takes forever to put on.
Starting point is 00:11:06 What are we discussing? You are, if you're wearing a thong to sleep, good night. Good night. Good night? Well, not good night. Well, not good night. Good luck. Good luck.
Starting point is 00:11:17 to you. You don't wear thongs. . And you, well some people wear bras to bed, that's fine. That's fine. It's uncomfortable. Well, the point is when you're going to bed, you want to wear what's comfortable. Exactly. That's the whole point. You're trying to be as comfortable as possible for sleeping. How long have they been dating? Two months.
Starting point is 00:11:33 Oh, I'm really upset. He's out of here. Yeah, this is ridiculous. My blood is boiling. Also, etiquette? Poof. That's hard. This is weird. Put it back on? I feel bad for her because she's like, this is my first, this is the first time I've slept over at someone's house. I've been single since high school.
Starting point is 00:11:54 She's 24. So I understand she probably is just like, oh my gosh, I'm with someone. This is 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's this is this is this is just this is just this is this is just, this is just, this is this is this is this is this is this is weird, this is this is weird, this is weird, this is just weird, this is just, this is just, this is just, this is just, this is just, this is just, this is just, this is just, this is just, th. this is just, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, this is just thi, thi, this is just thi, this is just thi. this is thi. this is this is this is this is this is this is this is this is thi. this is this is this is this is this is, but it's like, it's not worth it. It's not worth. This guy is going to get so much worse. How is she going to like fart in this relationship? He sounds very controlling. He sounds, well, he's objectifying the shit out of her. He has no idea how women actually operate. No. It's just like, to be attractive all the time. But he's gonna be asleep.
Starting point is 00:12:25 Yeah, it's just like, dude, you go to bed. Like, all it's about is comfort now. You're not gonna even see her because your eyes are closed. I just don't like any part of this at all. No, it's sad. He's 29. Oh, God! Act in this way. It's bad. That's really bad. I have so much to say but I won't. Correct. It's all in my head. Side opinion. This definitely depends on the relationship. I mean, everyone operates different. Two months, like the first time sleeping over at his place, buying her a set of laundry feels kind of weird. A little too early. Yeah, I'm like, first time sleeping over at his place and he's buying you a laundry set, that just feels like a little too like, li. Yeah, 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, th, like, like, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. Side th. Side th. Side th. Side th. Side th. Side th. Side, th. Side, th. Side, th. Side, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. side, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. It, th. It, th. It's th. It's thi. It's thi. It's all thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi thi. thi thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. Side thi. It's all too early. Yeah, I'm like, first time sleeping over at his place and he's buying you a laundry set
Starting point is 00:13:07 that just feels like a little too like, full on focused on the sexual and not like, oh, let's like have a good like chill time right now. Yeah. I feel like buying laundry is like a very vulnerable special thing. And two months in, feels a little like... I think it's, I think it's, like, like, like, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, like, it's, like, th, like, th, like, like, like, th, 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... I think it's way too fast. But it does, this guy is giving, like, he's very much thinking of like what the internet and what media has told him like, oh, I'm being a man. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:13:38 It's very, it's very toxic. It's very like movie, like this is what you saw in a movie, that this guy did that. The pressure he's already putting on her is ridiculous. The comments, not the asshole, if he's against you sleeping in a shirt and boxers because of aesthetics, what the hell else would he control? Maybe he should sleep in laundry for one night and rethink his asshole opinion. Sleepware isn't meant to be sexy. OP responded, I wish he would just try the laundry on
Starting point is 00:14:06 to see what it feels like, but maybe that wouldn't be fair because he is male and has a different situation in that region than me, but the laundry digs into me really bad because it's a body suit type and I'm tall. They make these for average height women. doesn't fit is because I'm too fat for it. Whoa! Missed out on that! I probably should have included that in the first post, maybe.
Starting point is 00:14:27 It is a size large, and I'm more of an XL, but I think my proportions would be that of an average height size L. I don't think I'm fat. I'm more curvy, slash, chubby, and I thought that was his type. Oh it's already done. Oh it's done. That's done. Dude. Not the asshole, he is controlling and manipulating you into doing what he wants because you feel bad. Take that shit off and put on the comfy clothes. If his masculinity is that fragile, then you need to run from this boy child. Two months in, called her fat? I mean never call them fat ever but like two months in. Like just the first time. This guy is just just 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 is just is just is just is just is just he is just is just thi. hea. hea. hea. hea. hea. hea. hea. hea. hea. hea. hea. hea. he. he. he. he. he. he. He is is is he. He is he. He is he. He is he. He is he. He. th. He is th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the th. the th. the the th. the th. the just the first time, like this guy's just immediately the worst human.
Starting point is 00:15:08 That's, I think it's like, yes, never. But if he's that comfortable saying that now, how much worse is he about to be? OPE responded to that one saying, ha ha, that is what I did. If he says a bad word to me about it tomorrow, I am not th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thin, thin, thin. 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. I is just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just. 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. this thi. this thi. this thi. thi. tomorrow I am not going to sleep over again and consider breaking up. She should just break up. I break up 100% I would have been fucking out of there. He fucking sucks. He's a piece of shit. I will say though, I always say like I would have been out of there but it's really overwhelming when this happens to you because we want to be like oh she should have to have left but I do think it's really hard in the mc..... I'm th. I's th. I's th. I's th. I's th. I's to to be like, to be like, to be like, to be like, to be like, to be like, to be like, to be like, I'm to be like, I'm to be like, I'm to be like, to to be like, to be a to be a to be a to be a to me, to me, to be to be like, to be like, to be like, to be like, to be like, to be like, to be like, to be like, to be like, to be like, to be like, to be like, to be like, to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the the th. the th. thi, thr- I's thr-I, thr-I's their, their, their, their, their, their, their their, their their, I've invested two months, my friends and family kind of know about this person. I'm embarrassed that he said this because I didn't expect him to say that. So many things.
Starting point is 00:15:52 I also relate to her where I was single until like around her age as well. And the fear of being single starts to become so great that you'll tolerate anything from someone just to be with someone. It's really tricky. You do start to believe like, well, I'm never going to be with anyone. Yeah. So if this is the best that I can get, let's go. It's never that. It's not the case. It's also truly, I look back, I'm like, it would have thea, I'm not the case. It's not the case. It's also truly like, I look back and I'm like, oh, it would have been better to be single. Sometimes we have to give people grace and...
Starting point is 00:16:27 Oh, totally. Like, I'm speaking to myself because I'm like, oh, girl, get out of there. But I'm just like, wait a second. Give grace. It's really disheartened. Right. Update. Oh my God. A few people asked me to update them with my boyfriend's reaction when he wakes up, but since my post was deleted for rule eight, I figured I should post the update over here so this one doesn't get deleted too.

Starting point is 00:16:57 everyone's responses, I decided it's over between the two of us, whether he tries to apologize for the stunt he pulled or not. So a few the the the the the toe, toe, toe, the toe, to, the the to, the the to, to, to, the the, to, the the, to, the the, to, to, to, to, to, to, the, the, the the, the the, the the, too, to, the, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, too, 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, thr, thr, their, their, their, the the the throwne, the their, th the thrown, thrown, thrown, too thrown, too their he tries to apologize for the stunt he pulled or not. So a few hours after I posted I woke up to the sound of my boyfriend quietly sobbing. I roll over toward him and he's like, why can't you do this one thing for me? All I want is for my woman to look like a woman because I'm not gay. Okay. What? Okay, man. I think he needs that I'm done and he started throwing a tantrum like a two-year-old. I didn't even bother to listen to it.
Starting point is 00:17:26 I had gathered my stuff together before I went to sleep, so I just picked up my backpack and left. Went home, picked up beer, pizza and ice cream on the way, put on some cartoons and was chilling all afternoon. Then my friend who works at Spencer's. I've got some gifts for you. Yeah. Apparently my ex had come in and tried to return the laundering. Obviously, they could only give him store credit because it was out of the box and he started throwing yet another childish tantrum. He had to be escorted out of the store by a mull cop.
Starting point is 00:17:57 Thanks to y'all, I dodged a bullet with this man, baby. He obviously has some serious issues and I'm the right right'm the right person to help with them. I just really feel bad for his kids and his ex-wife who are stuck with him. Oh my God. This guy has 29? This guy has kids? This guy has kids? Why are you buying laundry at Spencer's gifts in forever?
Starting point is 00:18:13 I thought they thin' thin' th had a lava lamps. I haven't been to a Spencer's gifts in forever. I thought they didn't know they were still around. I didn't think they existed either. It makes me think that this lingerie is super uncomfortable. It's probably really cheap. I mean, I don't know. This guy's, this guy clearly is super insecure. Yeah. And he's taking th, and he's, and he's, and he's, and he's, and he's, and he's, and he's, and he's, and he's, and he's, and he's, and he's, and he's, and he's, and he's, and he's thi, and he's thi, thi, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks. thinks. thinks. thinks. thinks. thinks. thinks. thinks. thinks. thinks, thinks. thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, makes, makes thinks, thinks, makes thinks, thinks, makes, makes thinks, makes thinks, makes thinks, makes thinks, makes thinks, makes thinks, makes thinks, makes th whole like... That's a really intense thing to wake up and he's crying and he's just like so scared. Well I mean I think a lot of dudes what it really boils down to they're so afraid of of being gay at all or even being being perceived as being gay it's like their
Starting point is 00:18:57 greatest fear. That's like the ultimate homophobia for a lot of men. And so they let it they let it turn him into them him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him them him them to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to th. th. th. tho. try. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. the to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. And so they let it they let it turn him into a monster. Okay. Instead of just like not caring. Yeah. It's too far gone for this. This guy, honestly. This actually makes me feel very, very bad for his family and him. Yeah. I mean.
Starting point is 00:19:19 There's a, there's a core of it where I feel bad for him, right? Because that comes from a place of severe se se se se se se se se se se se se 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, 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, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, thoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. th, tho, th, for him, right? Because that comes from a place of severe insecurity. Deeply insecure. But if he's not going to try to do anything about it, and acknowledge that it's his problem, yeah. He's going to take it out on other people, then he's an asshole. Yep. Correct. Well, I'm glad she got out.
Starting point is 00:19:37 She got some beer, next story. Okay. It's a good title. Am I the assel for wearing a white dress to my friend's wedding? Oh. Dude, this... Why? Why would you do this? It's like the one rule? It's the one rule. And don't wear something close to it. Champagne. Cain is literally white. Do not do that. Cream?
Starting point is 00:20:06 Cream is basically white. It is white. Gray. Why? Why would you wear, when did gray look good at a wedding? That's true. Okay. All right, here we go.
Starting point is 00:20:17 I, a 20-year-old woman, met my friend Charlotte, who's 21, when I moved into my college dorm in August of 2020. We got along well, shared ideas for how we wanted to divide space and keep things clean slash organized, and had similar interests. Within a month, we were studying and hanging out together, and I considered her a good friend. I also met her now husband, Josh, 22. They seemed like a cute and loving couple, and I was very happy when they got engaged Christmas of 20 20 years together. Charlotte has spent the last the last the last the last the last th, Charlotte th, Charlotte th, Charlotte th, Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, the last th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, their, their, their, their, the the the thi, thi, thi, and, th, th, and, and, th, th, th, and, th, th, and, th, and, and, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, and, th, th, th, th, the th, the th, the the the th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, and, thi, the, the, and, theu, thei, thei, thei, thei, thei, and, thei, the the, and, the thi, 2020 after 3.5 years together. Charlotte has spent the last 18 months planning this wedding down to the last detail. I won't say she's obsessive, but it's been intense, and I've tried to help her as best I can with making appointments, managing stress, etc.
Starting point is 00:20:56 I also gave her $250 to help pay for the wedding. Her family can only afford part of it, which isn't included in the wedding gift I'm going to give her. A month before the wedding, I was still trying to decide exactly what to wear. I wanted something nice because Charlotte said she would have a photographer, videographer, and wedding painter. I knew Charlotte had a vision for her wedding, and I wanted her as in control as possible for all the details of her special narrowed it down to that I should wear. She asked if I would actually pull out all my dresses, so I did. She ended up narrowing it down to one of my picks, along with the dress I had put firmly in the no pile for being white.
Starting point is 00:21:33 It was a wedding after all. She told me both dresses were lovely, but that she prefers the white one. I asked if she was sure, and she said yes, and even picked out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out out the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thathe s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s'eru, I, I, I'm, I, I'm, I, I'm, I'm, I, I'm, I'm, I'm, toe, toe, toe, toe, toe, toe, toe, toe, toe, toe, toe, toe, toe, toe, toe, toe, thi.. thi, I, thi. thi. I, I, thi. thi. thi. thrown, thrown, thrown, throwne, throwne, thr. throwne, thr. throwne, thr. thrown, thrown, toe, toe, toe, pair of pink and white heels from her closet to go with my dress. I figured that was that. Fast forward to last week, I showed up in the dress about a half an hour before the ceremony. I got some weird looks, but no one said anything. In hindsight, this is when I should have realized something wasn't right. When Charlotte comes out of her dressing room for some last-minute pictures, She looks shocked to see 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, thoom, and I, and I, I, I, and I, and I, and I, and I, and I, and I, and I, and I, and I, and I, and I, and I, and I, and I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, and, I, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, I, I, and, I, th th th th th th th th th th thrificea.ea.ea.ea.ea.ea.ea.ea.ea.ea.ea.ea.ea, is, is, is, is, th th th th She looks shocked to see me, and then she starts turning red. She pulls me aside and starts going off on me immediately
Starting point is 00:22:08 about wearing the dress to her wedding. I'm stunned. I asked her what the problem is because she picked the dress out, and she told me it was a friendship test. And that if we were real friends, then I wouldn't have worn a white dress or her shoes to her wedding. I started laughing because I honestly thought it was a joke and she screamed at me that I ruined her fucking wedding wedding and to get the fuck out. I flat out told her she was crazy and left not wanting to fight anymore and not knowing how to deal with what the tauk
Starting point is 00:22:35 I grabbed my wedding gift for them on the way out. My phone has been flooded with texts, voicemails and social media notifications from her her her friends and her family about what an asshole I am. But I honestly don't see what I did wrong. Am I really the asshole here? Edit. Someone made a comment about how, if the bride is wearing white, I should at least be prepared for the weird glances. The bride didn't even wear white.
Starting point is 00:22:56 That was another non-traditional thing she did. She wore blue. Can I just say something? Is she colorblind? Well, white, I don't think it would be a problem. No, she did it as a friendship test which I've never, I don't think I've ever experienced. A friendship test? I have. Oh no.
Starting point is 00:23:20 I'm not friends with them anymore. Yeah, that's a weird shit. Because you're being a good friend by being like, well you told me to do this and I'm, their, their, th......., I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I thi, I, I thi, I thi, I'm thi, I'm thi, I'm thi, I'm thi, I'm thi, I don't, I'm thi, I don't, I don't, well, I don't, well, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I th. Well, I th. Well, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi, wight, wight, wight, wight, wight, I'm friends with them anymore. Yeah, that's some weird shit. Because you're being a good friend by being like, well, you told me to do this and I'm going to do it. Would you imagine if she showed up and was like, I knew it was a test, you're so right, I'm wearing black. And it's just like, thank you for- Thank you for not listening to me in the right way. Yeah, it's some weird shit. This is so weird, but also like Okay, yes friendship test friend bride Very weird behavior from her, but also
Starting point is 00:23:51 Why would you even let white be an option to begin with? Well, she had it she had it in the no pile? She had it in the no pile. Okay. She had it in the no pile, but her friend was like oh this dress. this one and let me get you some matching shoes for it? that's what's tricky th th. She th th. She th. She th. She th. She th. She th. She th. She th. She th. She th. She th. She th. She th. She's th. She th. She th. She th. She th. She 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. that's that's that's that's that's that's that's the. the. that's the. the. the. the. th. th. th. th this one. And let me get you some matching shoes for it. That's what's tricky is like, she's the bride. So she's also being like, I really want you to wear this. So she's like, oh, you know, it's in the no pile, okay. My understanding as far as weddings go is like, if the bride says they want something, that you're doing that, even if it's like... That is so wrong. It's so weird. Also, she completely embarrassed her. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:28 And your friend like gave you money and supported you through your, like, why are you? This is some weird shit. This is so weird. Weird turn. The verdict is not the asshole. Yeah. Comments, not the asshole. I was super ready to say you're the asshole. But this chick picked out the dress as a friendship test?
Starting point is 00:24:45 That's absolutely bananas. She's an attention-seeking psycho. And I'd say stay as far away from her and any of her flying monkeys as possible. If there are any mutuals you don't want to give up without a fight, maybe make a statement about what she did and how inappropriate her actions were to. If you had worn a different dress, the psycho bride would have said, you're the asshole because you didn't wear the dress she picked. This was a setup for you to fail the friendship test either way. OP, don't look back. Lastly, someone said, not the asshole.
Starting point is 00:25:11 While I would otherwise say it's a no-brainer not to wear white to someone else fucking wedding, play stupid games, win stupid prizes, she should have just communicated like a grown-up. Like for what purpose? For what purpose did this get? I don't understand how some people operate. Well, she gave her a clear sign and now she's hopefully out of that friendship. I know, this is very clear that they should not be friends. I mean, like, also, good luck with your wedding, marriage.
Starting point is 00:25:46 I don't know, you seem pretty unstable and weird. Yeah, this is a wife test. Yeah, this is a wife test, whatever that looks like. If I was the husband or the partner and seeing that, I'd be like, you're doing, what? You probably didn't see it. And then she was probably like, oh yeah, she's crazy. She showed up in white. Yeah, I wonder what what she's telling everyone.
Starting point is 00:26:09 OK, wait, also. OK, hold on. Just to play devil's advocate. OK. Just saying, I don't think this girl did anything wrong. 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. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. Yeah, I th. Yeah, I th. Yeah, I thi. Yeah. Yeah. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. Yeah. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I to. I. I to. I to. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I to. I to. I to. I to. I to. I to. I th. I th. I th. I th. I... There could be back story. There's a lot, maybe, maybe the, maybe the girls like, dude, you've done this so many times, maybe this is the official, like the way that I, the only way that I can see you for who you really are, I guess. I don't know, maybe there's been a lot of history. There could be a lot of history, and she doesn't know how to deal with it the th. There. There. There th. There th. There th. There th. There th. There th. There th. There th. There thi. There 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, th.

Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:47 Do something? I don't know. I'm just, I'm just saying. Yeah, I mean for sure, but like the base, even the lead up to do a friendship test and to lie and say, wear this, I didn't want you to listen. I'm like, that's weird no matter what. Right, right. And maybe there was stuff that maybe they're both weird and have been doing this, but all we have is that. I feel like there's history.
Starting point is 00:27:08 I think, oh, I think there's a ton of history and maybe they do friendship tests on each other. There's a lot of stories we read where I'm like, oh, you're best friends. Getting stuff is so tricky and complicated. To do, to test people, like it's just already a stressful thing and there's a lot of expectations and a lot of big feelings. And to test someone on your wedding day, like, why would you even want that stress on yourself? Yeah. Well, we're going to get some more details because we're update.
Starting point is 00:27:41 What? Okay, it's been a crazy few days since I posted that. I had to to to to to to to to the th the th th th th the th th, th, th, th, thi thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, they. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, their, their, their, thi, they. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi.

And, toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooomoome. And, it's been a crazy few days since I posted that. I had to wait until I was home to read all the comments and they just kept pouring in. Thank you everyone who gave me feedback as to why they thought I was or was not the asshole. I texted Charlotte the day after making the post. Sometime around 4 p.m. And told her she had 48 hours told to their to their hours to their hours to to their hours to to their hours to to their hours to their hours told told told their hours their hours told their 48 hours told the truth, and get them to stop sending me hateful messages, or I'd tell them the truth myself. She told me, I had no proof and that no one would believe me. I should have just gone ahead and posted proof, but I wanted things to be ended as diplomatically
Starting point is 00:28:13 and non-dramatically as possible. I called her husband around lunch, to see if he could talk some thi. And that's when things got weird. I had him on speaker and was recording the convo for extra evidence in case he knew about the dress thing. At this point, I didn't know if he did or didn't. It turns out he did. But when I tried to convince him to talk Charlotte down, he tried to talk me down, saying I need to let it go and just admit anything wrong, but he said, I know, but just suck it up and apologize anyway, that's what I do.
Starting point is 00:28:52 I told him I wasn't going to apologize and that they only had a few hours left before I told the truth for them. And then he offered to sleep with me as an apology. What? What? What this this man doesn't have any freedom. He has no freedom. Wait, wait, wait, wait, he's gonna sleep with her? How is that an apology? All right. All right, listen. Look, I'll let you have sex with me. What that? Oh, that's an apology.
Starting point is 00:29:28 All right, come on over, jump on the bed. Let's do this. Just come on. I told him to F off and hung up. Okay, now we're getting into what the hell. What the hell's going on here? There's some freaky shit. Uh, I waited out the remaining bit of those 48 hours, and then I took to Facebook and
Starting point is 00:29:47 posted screenshots of that conversation, plus the couple of times I checked in with her about the dress by text featuring date time stamps. I also added the recording of her husband hitting on me. Stop hitting on you, honey. It was more than hitting on you. That was Friday evening. Now it's Monday morning, and I've had to to to to to to to their their to their their their their their their their their th. th. th. th. th. I've th. I've th. I've th. I've their th.

Now it's Monday morning, and I've had to block Charlotte, her husband, and a few of their friends and family who still support them and are cross with me about trying to ruin their marriage. Most people have reached out to apologize, but I'm honestly just thankful this is all over. Hoping my social circle can go back to normal after this and this will thi th th th th th th th th th th th th th thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi, thi, the thi, thi, the thi, thi, the thi, thi, thi, thi, and their, and the their their their their, and their, and a their, and a their, and a their, and a their, and a their, and a their, and a their, and a their, and a their, and a their, and a their, and their, and their, and their their their their their their their their their their thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thuu--s thu-s thu--s thu-s thu-s thu--I's thu-s thoooooooo' thu-s thu-s their thu- will turn into another funny story I can tell friends in the future. Edit, just a note because a lot of people have brought up
Starting point is 00:30:26 the $250. No, I haven't gotten it back, but I did send her and her husband a Venma request for the money back. I'd also like to make it clear to those arguing about it. I didn't give Charlotte the money because she asked for it. I donated it of my to. I to pay for, and I wanted to take a tiny bit of stress off of her in that area since I could afford to. Her family wasn't covering three-fourths because it was too expensive, it's because they
Starting point is 00:30:51 believe when you get married you should cover some of the cost yourself as a recognition of the kind of commitment you're making. Charlotte and Joss weren't struggling to afford things. I just wanted to be a a to be a to be a good a good a good a good a good, the the the to be a good, the the the the the the the to be a good friend because we'd become so close, and she was with me through a couple of very hard things these past two years. It hurts a lot to have lost her as a friend. She had become the sister I'd always wanted growing up, and it really feels like I lost a family member here. Yeah, but you're walking away from something real weird.
Starting point is 00:31:17 What is happening? The husband,. the. O.P. And so she just probably has had this like boiling disdain, maybe. Maybe. Maybe that's the history. That's a theory. That's a theory. Because for him to just outright be like, I'll sleep with you is like, okay, so he's really into you. And I if, I don't know, I think she might be aware. I think they bring other people in the bedroom. Yeah. And there's like some really thi. I I I I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. th th. th th. There's something th. There's something th. There's something th. th. There's something th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. 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. th. th. th. th. the they. their. their. their their their their their their their. that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's they bring other people in the bedroom. Yeah. And there's like some really deep like history there. There's something. There's something going on with this, because it's, that, those are some weird things thrown into this.
Starting point is 00:32:13 This is very, very weird. It does not feel like it's of this earth. Yes. It feels like another universe, planets type of thing. I have never heard something so insane in my life. This is insane. I know I've never had like the option to be like I'm so sorry I'll sleep with you. Like to make it up to you I'll sleep with you. It's like, oh, that'll make it better. Like, who are you? Why would I say yes? Who are you? She dodged a bullet.
Starting point is 00:32:48 Could you imagine? Is she still friends with that? I'm confused because she's like, this person has been like a family member, like a sister. So, um, how did it get to this point? There must be so much of other things that we just don't know about this? much other things that we just don't know about this. Yeah, no, the husband's comment makes me like, what's going on here? Yes, yes.

Because they're in their, they're in their like early 20s.
Starting point is 00:36:10 I learned throughout my 20s, sometimes in life stuff just happens to you. You're thrust into like weird situations that youthere are a lot of people who love to just fuck shit up. Where I'm like, your wedding could have been great. You decided to make it fucking crazy. Are they from England? I don't think so. I said cross with me. Moving on.
Starting point is 00:36:36 Okay. Am I the asshole for refusing to lie about my job to impress my girlfriend's parents? I, a 28-year-old man, have been dating my girlfriend, Sarah, who's 26, for about a year, and things have been going great between us. However, recently Sarah asked me to do something that's made me very uncomfortable. We're planning to meet her parents for the first time next week, and she asked me to lie about my job. I'm a graphic designer, and I love what I do. It's a fulfilling the f a f a f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f ffi thi to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to tooome, tooome, to to to to to thrific, to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to th. th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, the thi, the thr. thr. thr. thr. thr-a. thr-s, thr-s, thr-s, tooooooooooooooooooooom. tooome, th a fulfilling career that allows me to be creative and work on a variety of interesting projects, but Sarah thinks that her parents will look down on my job because it's not as high-paying or
Starting point is 00:37:10 prestigious as some other professions. Sarah comes from a family of professionals. Her father is a lawyer, her father is a lawyer and her mother is a doctor. She's worried that they won't take me me seriously or approve of our relationship if they know th th th the me to tell them that I'm a lawyer. She even went as far as to coach me on some legal jargon and gave me a brief background story to go along with the lie. I refused because I don't want to start a relationship
Starting point is 00:37:33 with her parents based on a lie. I told her that I was being stubborn and unreasonable. She thinks that I'm making this a bigger deal than it needs to be and that I'm not understanding how important her parents' approval is to her to her. She's been distant and cold since our argument, and it's making me question whether I'm in the wrong here. On one hand, I understand that she wants her parents to like me and support our relationship, but on the other hand, I feel like asking me to lie about something as fundamental as my job is crossing a line. It's not just a white lie, it's a significant part of who I am and what I do. So am I the
Starting point is 00:38:11 asshole for refusing to lie about my job to impress my girlfriend's parents? No. No. Not only are you not the asshole, it's not going to work. No. So graphic designer is sick. It's super sick, but her dad's a lawyer. You're not going to pull off pretending to be a lawyer. That is so intense. There's so much, like you can learn some basic jargon in a minute. That's the equivalent in my eyes of being like, hey, my parents can speak Spanish. So you need to pretend you speak Spanish. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:42 Let me pull up a lingo really quick and learn like a phrase. It's like, no, you're not gonna pull that off. Hula, Papa. It's gonna take them a couple questions to prove you're not alone. Like literally just watch, catch me if you can. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:55 Do you concur? I concur. And that's, that's also, wow, wow, that's also, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, th............... that's th. th. th. th. th. th. that's, that's, th. th. th. th. th. th. tha. tha. th. th. th. th. th. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to......................................................................................................................................................... a graphic designer's a great job. No, it sounds like it's a her problem. Yeah. Yeah, no, that's... She's got family issues that she needs to deal with. Yeah. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:39:11 And maybe she should just date someone who is a lawyer. So she can make her family, she can make her parents happy. Yeah, who is going to be with you, who is going to be with with your parents, your your parents, your parents, your parents, your parents, your parents, your, your, your, your, your, your, your, your, your, your, your, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, thi, to, to, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi. thi. thiiiia, thia, thi. that's that's Like, what? It's a her problem. Yeah, she's going to feel so much better if she, as intense as these parents probably are, she's going to feel so much better if she doesn't need their approval on this. She goes, no, this is who I'm with. Right. Or maybe that could be a big revelation in their family dynamic. It's like, oh, like, like, like, like, like, like, like but hey, like, you're not. It might be a situation where they're not.
Starting point is 00:39:45 Yeah. Yeah. I'm proud of him. Yeah. Oh, yeah. That's the correct thing. Also, your graphic designer, cool as hell. Yeah. Comments, not the asshole, if her dad is a lawyer and you say you are a lawyer and you are, the, 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, and, the, the, the, the, the, and, and, and, and, and, the, and the, and the, and the, the, and the, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, the, the, the, 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 the the the the the the the the the th.. toe. thoomorrow. tooomorrow, tooomorrow, tooomorrow, tooomorrow, tooomorrow, tooomorrow, tooomorrow, thoomorrow, thoo, tho, tho, the big book, the bar directory and lawyer finder, and guess what? You aren't in it. You are then either a liar or a fraud, neither of which is going to impress him.
Starting point is 00:40:08 Someone else said, I'm sorry, but that's an absolute red flag. You should rethink your entire relationship with her. Someone said, not the asshole, she's essentially saying you aren't good enough. Walk away now, let her find her hot, sot, thiii. true. What does she do? I don't know. Maybe we'll find out. We have an update. She are married. So I finally confronted Sarah about everything and it did not go well. I told her I felt she was embarrassed of me and ashamed of my job. She went absolutely ballistic asking me who the hell was filling my head with this garbage. I couldn't tell her I posted about it on Reddit so I said a friend made me realize it. She went even crazier saying I betrayed her the tr the the tr the the their their their their th th th th th th th th th th th th th tred tred tr. She's tr. She's tr.

She went even crazier saying I betrayed her trust by
Starting point is 00:40:47 sharing personal stuff with friends. I can only imagine how she'll react when she finds out 312,000 people viewed it on Reddit. She insisted I was being an asshole and that if I wanted to meet her parents I had to go along with her story. I refused saying I wouldn't lie to them and was told her. I. the the the the the the. the the. I. I to the the to to to the the the the to to to the the to to the the. I. I to to to told to to to told to to to to told to to to to to to to told.

I'm true.'t lie to them and was fine with not meeting them at all. I told her she didn't respect me or what I do and was ashamed of me. I even said, if she wanted to be like this, maybe I didn't want to be with her anymore. She started crying, calling me selfish and saying I didn't know anything.
Starting point is 00:41:15 Then she dropped a bombshell. She told me the reason she's in low the the the the the the the the the the the to the to to the the the to be the extremely controlling and manipulative. They have sky-high expectations, and even after she became an adult, they would threaten to stop paying for her college if she didn't obey them. Once she got her degree, she moved away, which pissed them off, and they cut her off and took her trust fund. She's an only child, and her only chance of getting back in their good graces, and getting her inheritance is to win them over. She told me that her parents would rather get buried with all their money than give it to her if she didn't win their approval. Sarah even admitted she was going to lie about her job and my
Starting point is 00:41:51 background too. She said her parents would think I'm a gold digger if they knew I wasn't rich and would never give her any money. She revealed she was going to lie about my background to because the job just tick the their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their. I I I their. I their. I was their. I their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S, their their their their their their their. S, their their. S, their. S, their their. S, 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 their their their the family that they couldn't trace back. Lying about my job wasn't enough. She said she had to lie about my background too because the job just ticked one box, and me being from an old money family was just as important. She said she didn't tell me this earlier because she thought I'd break up with her over this, and she hoped she'd be able to convince me without revealing everything. At this point the the their their their their their their their to their their their to their, I I I I th, I th, I th, I th, I'd, I'd, I'd the, I'd told, I'd told, I'd told, I'd told, I'd told told, I'd told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, told, the the the the the the the thi thi, thi, thi, the the told me the the the, the the to me the told me told me the told me told me told me told told told I didn't know what to say. After reading all these comments on Reddit, I wasn't even sure if what she was saying was true anymore. I told her I didn't care about the inheritance.
Starting point is 00:42:31 If she and her parents can't accept me for who I am, then maybe this isn't right for me. She started crying again, calling me a selfish bastard, and saying she did all this for me and thrown family, a home, children, and everything. I was really shaken, mad, and hurt, so I packed a few pairs of clothes and moved out to stay at a friend's place. Now I have no idea what to do next. Oh my God. This is put all the pressure of generations on this one. Yeah. This is recent so that's the last update but... It feels like their foundational values do not align.
Starting point is 00:43:07 No. I, I, look, I, I, he is absolutely not the asshole. He's doing the right thing. Right. I see, because if, if it's like, as rich as it sounds, like, she, she thinks, like, this is like, oh She thinks like, this is, this is like, oh, millions of dollars are on the line. She's not even doing it because she loves her parents
Starting point is 00:43:29 and like, she's just like, I want that money. Yeah. Which I'm like, I understand. I do, I do see that motivation, where it's like, holy shit. If like, like, too. Yeah. But this sounds like hell. They'll always be in control, and now they'll be in control of him as well. Yeah. This sounds like hell.
Starting point is 00:43:51 And you know what I like about him is, it just sounds like he doesn't really care about money. He doesn't care about the money. Like he's like cool millions of dollars that you can inherit. I'm out. I'm out. I'm out. I th, I th, I'm out. I'm out. I'm out. I th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th th th th tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' th thi thi's tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' th. tho' th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' the the the the the theann't theann'n'eann'eann'eann'eann'eann'eann'eann' thoooooooooooooo' about the truth. I care more about living her life. How is he selfish? And bastard? Wow. Yeah, she's saying he's selfish because he refuses to lie for her. But that's... I do, I do, a part of me feels for her because I do think that there are certain parents who put so much pressure on their child. And then their child, like, is just survival mode.
Starting point is 00:44:28 Yes, I witnessed that a lot as an actor. I'm sure you witnessed it too with the child actors, the amount of pressure that's put on them. That's a different kind of pressure. But, I mean, it's similar because they need her to be like a doctor lawyer, super smart, and she's only 26. It's so unfair. But he needs to just get out because that's not his problem. Who? And also-
Starting point is 00:44:51 She could be with someone who is down to do this project with her. Yeah, it's a project. Also, she's going to try to lie and say he comes from an old money family, like, I don't even know if I've met many old money-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-mmmied-o-o-o-o-many-o-many-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-li-a-li-li-li-li-a-li-a-li-s.. tho'-li-I's-I's-s. that's-s. that's-s. that's-s. that's-s. that's-s. that's-s. that's-n't-s. that's-n't-s. I's-n't-n't-n't-n't-n't-n't-n't-n't-n't-n't-s... that's-n't-n't-s. that's-s-s-s-s-s-s-s. that's-no-no-no-no-no-no-s no'-s no-s Ita-s It's-s It's-s It's-s It's-s It's-s It's-no-s It's-s.. You can't, that's hard to fake. Like they're a different kind of person. Oh yeah. Like, I couldn't, I'd have to study up for a year to pretend to be like that. That's on a different level. I think, I think Liv is right.
Starting point is 00:45:20 Like she needs to find someone who is down to do this project with her because that's what it is. Yeah. It's not a partnership. It's a literal project to get inheriting money. She's, I think she would be happier forfeiting this money, like as much money as it is, and being able to like free her own self, she is going to be in a hellish like mindscape for the rest of her life. Unless she can handle it, unless she, like you, it, it, it, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, it, it, it, it, it's like, it's like, it's like, it, it, it's like, 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, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, you, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, th, like, like, like, th, like, like, like, thi, thi, like, thi, thi, like, mindscape for the rest of her life. Unless she can handle it, and unless she's like, you know what, the money is worth it for me. It's not sounding like it's good though. Right, like, okay, like, let's say she is with someone,
Starting point is 00:45:57 and they're down to do this, and then they get like millions and millions of dollars, and then they can just 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, th.., th., like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, th.... th. to, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, they, to, to, they, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, th. th. to, th. to, to, to, th. to, to, to, to with the family and then they go when they live their life. That's so true. They could do that, but I just think that this guy is not. It's just not for this guy. It's not for this. It's not for this. I'm not for this. You know what youes for this. Hi, I'm Olivia. I'm five foreign base in Los Angeles. I'm reading for your future.
Starting point is 00:46:26 You know what he should do? A future husband, lawyer. You know what he should do? You should go meet the parents. And when the parents are like, hey, you're a graphic designer, you're not good enough, he's like, all right. I'm so sorryie that I got for you from Spencer. Don't take it up. All right, moving on.
Starting point is 00:46:47 Hopefully there's another update on that one, but that one's recent as of reading it right now. Okay, here is our next story. Am I the assel for inviting a clown to my wedding and putting him in the pictures? That is awesome. That is awesome. Oh, that is awesome.

You get the exact same photos with just like friends and family, and then you get photos with the clown in it, right? You wait, like 20, 30 years. You have grandchildren. You've had those photos of
Starting point is 00:47:26 just the family and friends up all around your house, right? Then one day you swap them with the ones with the clown. And then your grandchild's like, what's that clown? And you just ruined their life. This is too long of a game. You plan it for decades to ruin your grandchild's life. And then when they come back to show their other grandchildren grandchildren grandchildren grandchildren grandchildren grandchildren grandchildren grandchildren grandchildren grandchildren grandchildren the other grand grand grand, the other, the other, the other, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, and, and, and, their, their, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, 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. th. their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, th. th. th. th. th. th. the. thi, thi, their, ththey come back to show the other the other grandchildren, you flopped them back and they're like the clown and they're like, what clown?

Starting point is 00:47:58 You have to do this. But 30 years is a long time to get satisfaction. You wait. You wait. That's crazy. Please do a chain. Well, I didn't, Courtney and I didn't get a clown at our wedding. Do more pictures. I'm so upset. Oh God.
Starting point is 00:48:14 Damn. Oh, all right. Am I the asshole for inviting a clown to my wedding and putting him in the pictures? Throw away a twooe tooo tho th th old woman, married my hubby, a 31-year-old man, a few months ago. Neither of us were particularly interested in spending a boatload of money on a wedding no one would actually enjoy, so we were casual. The wedding was in the party room of a pizza place we love. It's in a recently renovated 19th century factory, so it's cool looking looking and we decided to let our friends and family bring their army of small children because pizza. To
Starting point is 00:48:47 entertain the kids we decided to have a few carnival-themed games and snacks available and we hired a clown, 23-year-old guy to do balloon animals. I know this clown. I know this clown. Hey, does anyone know this clown? I know this clown. I know this clown. He's got credentials. Yeah, he's got clown credentials. He just pulls out confetti. He's like, ah, baa, bip. Yeah, let me get my credentials out. Whoa. They're like, oh, oh. Good tracks, I know this clown. Let me see your card. Uh-uh-uh.
Starting point is 00:49:27 God. We could do so much with this. This is so good. So much. So much. I'm just remembering that for the 100th, try not to laugh. We got a clown on and it was my dream. It was so good.
Starting point is 00:49:44 It was like, I don killed me. He was like, where do I go? Yeah, he was like, all right. No, after we were done filming, there's just a clown, like just kind of chilling, just like, bup, all right? Like, now you're, that's the funniest part. Yeah. Okay, I know this clown, he's a th.
Starting point is 00:50:05 He was great with the kids. We had the bright idea to invite the clown to be in some of our wedding photos as well. Anyhow, I noticed my mother-in-law in her 60s had been kind of distant since the wedding, but I didn't realize that she was pissed at us until she came to dinner last night. We got the wedding photos and picked our favorite, which is the two of us looking at each other dramatically with the clowns, us holding a big fake squeaky hammer like he was about to bonk my husband's head. We got it framed and put it up in the house. When my mother-in-law saw the photo, she lost it. She blamed me for embarrassing her and continuing to rub it in her face with the clown photos and that I should have put my foot down and made sure her son had a classy wedding and not the clown show you put on. My husband told his mom to leave to leave to leave to leave to leave to leave to leave to leave to leave to leave to leave to to to to to to to told his mom, told his mom, told his mom, told his told his the told his the the the the told, I, I, I, 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 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 th th th th tho, the, the, the. the. thean, thean, thean, tho. thean, thean, tho. the. the. I, the, tho. I, th My husband told his mom to leave, but I'm honestly kind of shaken. The feedback from other family and friends has been positive, and I've had a good
Starting point is 00:50:47 relationship with my mother-in-law thus far. So this was a surprise. I know a lot of people say that the wedding is for the family, not the couple, which isn't something I took seriously until now, So am I the assu for my clown show wedding? Okay, hear me out. All she needs to do is put back on the outfit, go to a cute little garden and take a couple photos. Because it's, it is for the couple, but the mothers matter. Like you just need a couple things. The mothers matter. Do not, I mean, I think the clown is hilarious, but like, the mom, the moms, the moms, the moms, the moms, the moms, the moms, the moms, the moms, the moms, the moms, the moms, the moms, the moms, the moms, the moms, the moms, the moms, the moms, the moms, the moms, the moms, the moms, the moms, the moms, the moms the moms thoms, thoms, thinks, thooms, thooms, thooms, thooms, thinks, thians, thians, thians, thians, thians, thians, thians, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, thous, thous, thous, thousa, the thousands, thousands, that, the thousand, that, thanks, to thanks, to thanks, thousan, thanks, thanks, thanks, thanks, thanks, I mean, I think the clown is hilarious, but like, the moms matter, you've got
Starting point is 00:51:29 to do something. That's what I think, just to like keep the piece. Because if I were the mother and my child did that, I'd be like funny, but also this sucks because now this is just a forever memory of us. Yeah, she doesn't have a pick, I get it, she doesn't have a picture of her son without a fucking clown bonking his head with a hammer. What I will defend them though is like, what I think, I think it's like, okay, this is who they are.
Starting point is 00:51:56 This is what makes them happy. And like, it's so much personality that those are the types of photos where 50 years later, you actually, whereas like, you know, everyone goes through this, whereas you're a kid, you're looking through old family photos of relatives who passed away or just when they were far younger, and they all look the same, because everybody's doing the same thing, and that's cool, that's fine.
Starting point is 00:52:17 But when you see something interesting and different and quirky. It's like actually what makes you go like, oh this is who they were. So I think it's kind of sad that the mother-in-law is like kind of not embracing like this is what her son wanted to. Oh I think they killed it. I think But I also know what you mean of just like hey moms can be intense around weddings like do your thing. You know maintaining a good relationship with your mother-in-law is often impossible for people, but if there is anything you could do, like, you'll just make your life a concession to, I get better. So much better if you consider, because I had my, my mom, my own mom and my mother-in-law, I could feel like, oh wait, am I missing something? There's tension, what's happening? And it's like they wanted a job to do yeah and they wanted something special that was just for them
Starting point is 00:53:07 yeah and it's like just just just do it like have you have your thing have the clown I think that's hilarious and so great but like have something yeah just make your life so much easier also like it's just nice to I I think this is also just I love my mom so much and I would never want to make her feel upset or like bummed out and like her, you know, in their position, like, oh my god, my only, my child is getting married. This is a forever thing, like, just make them happy.
Starting point is 00:53:39 Like, mothers, they can make your life. Exactly. They do so much already, like just... Especially mother-in-laws. Yeah. Ooh. They can make your life. Keep the peace. Keep the peace. I see that. I do think it's hilarious though. It's over a clown.
Starting point is 00:53:53 Like, I'm so glad they did that. That's fucking hilarious. And just, maybe just one thinne. will say like in my life it's it's like okay I know who I am I know what I want but there are the times when you have family get-togethers or things similar to this where it's like all right let's get one for mom exactly like I do understand that mindset of like our mom's gonna want this so let's do this for her yeah just like one and it's like it's annoying but it's like it's annoying but let's th 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 th thin thin thi thi thi the the the the thi thi thi the the the th th th th th the th the th th the the th th people don't. And maybe the clown really upset her. It's like, eh.
Starting point is 00:54:27 Yeah. Yeah, exactly. Weddings are so tricky, but the best advice I got was like, give people a job and make the mothers feel really important. Give them special tasks. And also because I wanted to. It's so special to have them special tasks and and also because like I wanted to I wanted to it's so special to have them but like my the mothers in my wedding they walked down the aisle right they had their own aisle moment with their own flowers and like
Starting point is 00:54:55 I organized their dresses and it I'm so glad because they were glowing right they were like I'm a part of this. Totally. And having said all that, this person's not an asshole, though. No, not an asshole at all. You're talking about just like, hey, to make your life easier, you could do this, but you don't owe the mother-in-law, but you could do this to make things calm. Well, it's just like, this all I'm thinking about her. Yeah, it's like, sometimes it's like, all right, what do I need to do to just make my life easier for the next decades? Yeah. Not the asshole, though.
Starting point is 00:55:29 Like, I... People need to have weddings that are about the couple. Not the asshole. It's just like, celebration and how you choose to celebrate is really up to the couple. If you want a carnival for a wedding then go nuts. Now that being said, clowns are a divisive form of entertainment. They can make a lot of people uncomfortable and their style of entertainment can be invasive. I think you and Hubby just need to let the situation day. She's entitled to have not liked it, but it was special and fun for you to. O.P. said, thank you and understandable,
Starting point is 00:56:09 apart from the photos of the three of us, we did have him stay off to the side with the kids who wanted to hang with him. So it wasn't like, he thuke,'re serving each other and he's just in there going like, bonk, bonk, bonk. Someone said, not the asshole, it was your wedding, as long as you and your spouse were happy, then it all is good. Regarding your mother-in-law, I'm confused as to why she would be embarrassed. If you had photos of her with the clown, thoes of the tho, tho, tho, thi, tho, thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, and, and, and, the thi, thi, the thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, the the thi, thi, th, th, 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 thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thin, and, thin, and, and thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, toee. too. thin, th thin, th thin, th th thin, th thin, th th th be a kindness to not have those photos on display. Do you have more traditional photos that show you and your husband without the clown, and photos of you with mother-in-law and other family without the clowns?
Starting point is 00:56:51 The ope responds. Thank you. The only pictures the clowns were just with the clowns were just with me and on our social media. We have just me, it's just with me those with her and on our social media. But admittedly, the clown photos are our favorites and what we featured on our own pages for the most part. A lot of her friends have reacted to those. The reactions have been positive to our faces, but maybe they're talking crap elsewhere.
Starting point is 00:57:18 Okay. They do have photos. So they literally, they are, they did the right thing. They have their photos, there's, now it's just like, okay, mother-in-law, now you need to back up. Yeah. Lastly, someone said, clowns are not my cup of tea, but far be it from me to tell strangers what kind of wedding reception they should have. Mother-in-law was probably daydreaming. for her son's wedding, but it wasn't her reception, it was yours and your grooms. Not the asshole. Not the asshole.
Starting point is 00:57:46 Yeah. And also they got all the photos. They have all the photos. So it just seems like. Now I can just laugh at this story. It just seems like the mother-in-law's about their thoe. their own friends. We're like, I can't believe you let your daughter. It's like, oh, so they, that's really huge.
Starting point is 00:58:10 That's, yeah. They had a clown for kids or them? Yeah. It's a different generation of things. Alright, here's our last story. Am I the assul for getting my roommate to hook up with my ex to get my favorite coffee mug back? Hey. What are these stories? Hey man, I have a mission. I'm gonna need you to have sex.
Starting point is 00:58:36 All these people. All right, dude, I'll do it. All these people having sex for like something. What an insane situation. I need you to hook up with my ex bro. All right dude. Just go over and get it in a mug. Against my will. Yeah, against my will. Here we go. Dude, just have the friend go. My friend wants the mug. The mug back. And then he's like, well, you're going to have to sleep with me for that mug. How are you going to get past? Could you go, could go, go, go, go, go, go, go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to go, to to to go, 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 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. th. th. th. the. the. the. thex, thex, the. thex, thex, the. the. the. the. to get, just just just just just just just just're going to have to sleep with me for that mug. How are you going to get past?
Starting point is 00:59:08 Could you go, could you go, could you go ask my ex for my coffee mug back? Like, I think I'm probably going to have to sleep with her in order to do that. Yeah, it's crazy. Like, I don't have to use my body to do what's right? Like what? Just get the fucking mug. Okay, okay. I collect coffee mug shaped as cool things. That's cool. What do you know?
Starting point is 00:59:34 There's like the toilet bowl coffee mug and stuff like that. Oh, I love to drink out of the toilet bowl. Yeah, there's the one that looks like a camera lens. This is not for me. Okay. Well, it's for this this this this this this this this that looks like a camera lens. This is not for me. Okay. Well, it's for this guy. I collect coffee mug shaped his cool things. Anyways, I dated a guy for a year that brought me back this mug from the states shaped like a shark.
Starting point is 00:59:53 The handle was a fin, semi-expensive mug. I looked into buying another one. I love sharks more than't worthy of this mug. When we broke up despite my love for the shark mug I put it in the box of stuff you give back to your ex thinking it would bring back too many memories. Now a year later I'm happily with someone else and these memories are no longer. I basically just want my favorite mug back. My roommate who is newly single as on Tinder happened to match with my ex.

The roommate did in fact see the mug, and she also did not take it back. The sex was inevitable. I thought all was lost in Operation Shark Bug. My dreams crushed, to say the least, game over. But then, I recently went to a wedding in which my ex attended as a close friend. Him and I made conversation about the roommate, about the mug, and eventually I came clean about the plan. Yeah, that's right, I'm not a total dickhead after all.
Starting point is 01:04:11 He told me that it was a hilarious plan, but that he had to be honest with me. The shark mug, you see, was too important to usebrush holder. He sent me picture evidence later that evening and I told him I deserved it for the plan I hatched. End of the day it was a good laugh for all. The end. Here's what I'm upset about.
