- 0:00Speaker 1: Guys, it's my birthday today. Well, the day I'm filming this,
- 0:04Speaker 1: not the day that this is posted. But I'm thirty.
- 0:07Speaker 1: I am thirty years old, and I'm gonna need you
- 0:10Speaker 1: to be so for real with me right now? Do
- 0:13Speaker 1: I look thirty? Do not be honest in the composes?
- 0:17Speaker 1: I feel good? Look at this? Look at a thirty
- 0:19Speaker 1: year old? Do this? Yeah, I still got it. Dance
- 0:26Speaker 1: party by its partyday. She doesn't like to dance that much.
- 0:34Speaker 1: Forty true, but you look fantastic today. I might look
- 0:40Speaker 1: like a wrinkly old hag, but you look fantastic. Skin.
- 0:44Speaker 1: Thirty is not that old. When I tell like young
- 0:46Speaker 1: twenty somethings that I'm now thirty, they're like, ah, you
- 0:49Speaker 1: do not look thirty, as if thirty was like ninety
- 0:53Speaker 1: years old. Give us a break. Okay, thirty is the
- 0:56Speaker 1: new twenty. Anyway, today it's my birthday. I kind of
- 0:59Speaker 1: just wanted to relax and just film something, you know,
- 1:02Speaker 1: just kind of fun, read some tea, and then I'm
- 1:05Speaker 1: gonna go eat some cake, you know, maybe paint a
- 1:07Speaker 1: picture and hang out with my husband. So let's do that.
- 1:11Speaker 1: Let's read some Reddit, all right. Naturally, we're going to
- 1:19Speaker 1: do birthday theme Reddit stories. Okay with updates, so stay tuned.
- 1:23Speaker 1: Let's read first s up we have my friend's boyfriend
- 1:27Speaker 1: gave me an inappropriately expensive gift for my birthday. Ooh,
- 1:31Speaker 1: the drama is thick today. Just how I I get
- 1:35Speaker 1: on my birthday? Let's go. Hey everyone, last week I
- 1:37Speaker 1: celebrated my birthday with my friend group. We're all fairly
- 1:40Speaker 1: close and whilst we've never discussed present slash gifts explicitly,
- 1:44Speaker 1: we all kind of naturally fell into an unspoken pattern
- 1:47Speaker 1: around what kind of birthday gifts we give to each other.
- 1:51Speaker 1: We do gifts, but they're usually in the ten to
- 1:53Speaker 1: forty euro range. Think things like a book about your
- 1:56Speaker 1: first theater ticket, maybe a nice bottle of wine. That's
- 1:59Speaker 1: us A good, good budget for a friend gift. I
- 2:03Speaker 1: feel like that's nice, that kind of stuff. We're all
- 2:05Speaker 1: young professionals or grad students and that just fits our
- 2:08Speaker 1: general income level fair enough. A good friend of mine
- 2:11Speaker 1: brought her boyfriend to the party and he gave me
- 2:13Speaker 1: a gift of his own, separate from my friends. Do
- 2:16Speaker 1: you know this man or did he just come into
- 2:18Speaker 1: this not knowing what the budget was and all that
- 2:21Speaker 1: because these are two different things. I'll keep reading. I'll
- 2:22Speaker 1: shut up. Sorry, it's my birthday. Don't get mad at me. Okay.
- 2:25Speaker 1: Without going into too much detail, it was a small
- 2:27Speaker 1: object that had a very thoughtful connection to a trip
- 2:30Speaker 1: I took in winter. I was genuinely very thankful for
- 2:33Speaker 1: the gift and thought it was lovely. He gave you
- 2:35Speaker 1: a sentimental gift. Okay, so he loves you. However, when
- 2:40Speaker 1: I unpacked the item at home, something about it just
- 2:42Speaker 1: caught my eye. Certain parts of the item that I
- 2:45Speaker 1: would have expected to be made of glass didn't look
- 2:48Speaker 1: like glass. I ended up googling the maker's mark on
- 2:51Speaker 1: the bottom and found the exact same item online for
- 2:54Speaker 1: the price of seven hundred and fifty euros. Okay, he's
- 2:59Speaker 1: either rich rich or he literally wants to have babies
- 3:03Speaker 1: with you. I think now, it'd be one thing if
- 3:06Speaker 1: this guy was a trust fund kid he's not, okay,
- 3:08Speaker 1: for whom that kind of money was just peanuts. I'd
- 3:11Speaker 1: still feel uncomfortable, but at least there'd be some logic
- 3:14Speaker 1: to this then. But my friend's relationship with this guy
- 3:17Speaker 1: already has massive problems, largely centered around him being under
- 3:21Speaker 1: employed and making her pick up the tab for their
- 3:23Speaker 1: shared lifestyle to an undue degree. Oh my god. If
- 3:28Speaker 1: I was the girlfriend, I'd be so upsited. This is crazy.
- 3:32Speaker 1: I'm scared. We honestly all expect the relationship to fizzle
- 3:36Speaker 1: out soon because they obviously aren't compatible in some key aspects.
- 3:40Speaker 1: So now I've got this seven hundred and fifty euro
- 3:43Speaker 1: item on my shelf and I have no clue how
- 3:45Speaker 1: to handle this. It feels extremely inappropriate to have this thing.
- 3:48Speaker 1: I feel uncomfortable accepting the sort of gift from almost
- 3:51Speaker 1: anyone I know, But the fact that it's a a
- 3:53Speaker 1: friend's romantic partner. I'm gay and her boyfriend knows, but
- 3:57Speaker 1: still the block twist. The blocks be said friend has
- 4:02Speaker 1: issues with her partner's handling of this finances just makes
- 4:04Speaker 1: it even worse. It's also a highly specific item that
- 4:07Speaker 1: I don't think he'd be likely to just have, so
- 4:09Speaker 1: I'm pretty certain he must have bought this for an
- 4:12Speaker 1: occasion and must be aware of its value. What do
- 4:14Speaker 1: I do? My friend seems to be totally unaware of
- 4:17Speaker 1: the value of this item, and do I tell her?
- 4:19Speaker 1: Do I contact the boyfriend and ask him what the
- 4:21Speaker 1: he was thinking? How would you handle this, wow, ignore it.
- 4:26Speaker 1: So if you don't love this person, also sounds like
- 4:30Speaker 1: you're not into his variety, his vintage, then truthfully, if
- 4:37Speaker 1: it's your friend, I would definitely tell a friend and
- 4:39Speaker 1: be like yo, like I know, like they're probably gonna
- 4:42Speaker 1: break up already. This might be the cherry on the cake.
- 4:44Speaker 1: I would definitely say something and be like this is
- 4:46Speaker 1: way too expensive and just present it like that, like
- 4:49Speaker 1: are you aware that this is like seven hundred and
- 4:51Speaker 1: fifty dollars like I can't accept this, or like no, actually,
- 4:53Speaker 1: don't say that because you need to keep that and
- 4:55Speaker 1: you could do whatever you want with it. It was a gift.
- 4:56Speaker 1: Just be like this was a really expensive gift, like
- 4:59Speaker 1: am I missing something? And then she can do with that,
- 5:02Speaker 1: which she will, and then you saw it on Facebook
- 5:05Speaker 1: marketplace unless you actually like it and want to keep it.
- 5:07Speaker 1: But I'd be going to get something else. Take yourself
- 5:10Speaker 1: out to a real nice steak dinner. Yeah, I would.
- 5:13Speaker 1: I would definitely tell a friend. All jokes aside, let's
- 5:15Speaker 1: see what the comment said. I'd bring it up with
- 5:17Speaker 1: the friend. Okay, there's a chance that he got a
- 5:20Speaker 1: really really good deal or even a decent knockoff at
- 5:22Speaker 1: a lower price, but honestly, if he's bad with money,
- 5:25Speaker 1: even something half that price would be pretty inappropriate. Talk
- 5:28Speaker 1: to your friend and offer to return the gift. Now,
- 5:32Speaker 1: that's probably the right thing to do if it turns
- 5:34Speaker 1: out to have cost as much as you suspect it did.
- 5:36Speaker 1: Let them know you are incredibly grateful for his thoughtfulness,
- 5:39Speaker 1: but it wouldn't feel right accepting such a lavish gift,
- 5:42Speaker 1: and that their company and friendship is all that you
- 5:44Speaker 1: ask for. Just be honest about how you feel and
- 5:46Speaker 1: let your friend decide how she wants to proceed. Yeah,
- 5:49Speaker 1: I wouldn't. I mean, I guess you can involve him.
- 5:51Speaker 1: I don't really know what your relationship is like with him.
- 5:53Speaker 1: It sounds like he's like a part of the friend group,
- 5:55Speaker 1: but she's your friend more so, so I'd kind of
- 5:58Speaker 1: leave the ball in her court first and then see
- 6:01Speaker 1: how she reacts and then kind of proceed from there.
- 6:04Speaker 1: Another one says, my thought was that it's possible he
- 6:06Speaker 1: got it at a second hand or thrift shop. In
- 6:08Speaker 1: my experience, thrift shop pricers are not thinking all about
- 6:11Speaker 1: how much something costs. Initially, there will be plastic cups
- 6:14Speaker 1: and plates Ikia sales for twenty five to fifty cents
- 6:17Speaker 1: labeled as a dollar, and something obviously nice might get flagged,
- 6:21Speaker 1: but is more likely to just be labeled ten dollars.
- 6:23Speaker 1: I mean that's possible too, and then op answered that
- 6:25Speaker 1: and said, yeah, I think I'll have to have a
- 6:26Speaker 1: discussion with my friend. I also considered that he might
- 6:29Speaker 1: have got some kind of bizarrely amazing deal, and spent
- 6:31Speaker 1: all of yesterday night googling around for auctioning sites and
- 6:34Speaker 1: checking whether there might be a chance he bought this
- 6:37Speaker 1: without knowing what it was and how much it was worth.
- 6:39Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure though, that unless something genuinely absurd happened,
- 6:43Speaker 1: he must have paid at least five hundred euros for this,
- 6:46Speaker 1: and even that's a very generously low estimate. There is,
- 6:49Speaker 1: of course a chance that he just had this item,
- 6:52Speaker 1: but it's so specific and rare that I don't think
- 6:54Speaker 1: some random pseudo finance pro would just have this in
- 6:57Speaker 1: his house, sees it and thinks, huh, it's my girlfriend's
- 6:59Speaker 1: friend's birthday. That might be a good chance to get
- 7:02Speaker 1: rid of this totally bizarre behavior. I don't know what
- 7:04Speaker 1: this man was thinking, but I need this thing out
- 7:06Speaker 1: of my house. Okay, so you just want it like gone,
- 7:09Speaker 1: that's fair for me. I wouldn't want to like hurt
- 7:11Speaker 1: anybody's feelings, so I would just probably just let it
- 7:13Speaker 1: collect dust on my shelf, unless my friend was really
- 7:15Speaker 1: pissed about it. Then I'd be like, do you want it?
- 7:17Speaker 1: You can sell it and then we can go out
- 7:19Speaker 1: for dinner to get Wait, that's a good idea, do
- 7:22Speaker 1: that they can break up anyway. We do have an
- 7:24Speaker 1: update for two days later, so let's read that. I
- 7:26Speaker 1: ended up texting my friend and telling her that I
- 7:28Speaker 1: had researched the gift and discovered it was worth a
- 7:30Speaker 1: very inappropriate amount of money. She was very surprised by
- 7:34Speaker 1: the entire situation, especially considering her boyfriend now X but
- 7:38Speaker 1: more on that later. Thank you. Queen is perpetually broke
- 7:41Speaker 1: and makes her foot the bill for their shared lifestyle.
- 7:44Speaker 1: She came over to my place and together we called
- 7:46Speaker 1: him on speakerphone, where she demanded some answers. Long story short,
- 7:51Speaker 1: the molasses just turned into tar. He stole it from
- 7:57Speaker 1: his own mother, so he's a thief. He's a literal criminal.
- 8:04Speaker 1: That is insane. I was wondering. I was like, where
- 8:07Speaker 1: how would he stash this money? This is so weird.
- 8:10Speaker 1: He's still being a bit shady about some details, but
- 8:12Speaker 1: we managed to piece together the sequence of events to
- 8:14Speaker 1: a satisfying degree. My friend was supposed to be coming
- 8:16Speaker 1: to my birthday party straight from work. When she left
- 8:18Speaker 1: her office, she realized she had forgotten the gift she
- 8:21Speaker 1: had planned for me, a book at home. Since she
- 8:23Speaker 1: was already running late and her place is pretty far
- 8:25Speaker 1: from both her work in the flat, she chose to
- 8:27Speaker 1: text her boyfriend, who was having dinner at his parents'
- 8:29Speaker 1: home at the time. She knew he was there and
- 8:32Speaker 1: knew his parents lived close to me, so she asked
- 8:34Speaker 1: him to just buy a copy of the same book
- 8:36Speaker 1: at a bookshop on his way to my place, so
- 8:38Speaker 1: they'd have a gift. Okay, So they mutually gave it
- 8:40Speaker 1: to you. I guess the okay. I didn't realize that.
- 8:43Speaker 1: I must have missed that, or she didn't. She just
- 8:46Speaker 1: say grab a book, and he's like, let me steal
- 8:48Speaker 1: this like narrow thousand dollars item off my mother's shelf.
- 8:52Speaker 1: For reasons known only to him, he did not choose
- 8:55Speaker 1: this simple, reasonable solution to the We forgot our gift issue.
- 8:59Speaker 1: Instead of leaving five minutes early to pick up another
- 9:01Speaker 1: copy from the bookstore, he instead chose to grab a
- 9:04Speaker 1: random item off his mother's living room shelf without asking her.
- 9:07Speaker 1: He had no idea what it was, just thought it
- 9:09Speaker 1: looked pretty, took it and stuffed it in a paper bag. Okay,
- 9:12Speaker 1: so he's not in love with you. That's good because
- 9:14Speaker 1: that would have been weird. This is still weird, but
- 9:17Speaker 1: you know. He also did not text my friend or
- 9:19Speaker 1: react to her calls, so she reasonably assumed he hadn't
- 9:22Speaker 1: read her message and ended up going back to get
- 9:25Speaker 1: the book. Okay, so she did have a gift for you. Okay,
- 9:26Speaker 1: so I didn't read it wrong, thank you, which was
- 9:28Speaker 1: why they arrived separately with separate gifts. Meanwhile, the boyfriend
- 9:31Speaker 1: had unknowingly gifted me not just in any antique, no, no,
- 9:35Speaker 1: n nay. This item had been passed down to his
- 9:37Speaker 1: mother from her three times great grandmother. I'm so glad
- 9:41Speaker 1: you didn't sell it to go to his steak dinner
- 9:43Speaker 1: like I suggested. I'm evil. I was joking. Mostly, it
- 9:47Speaker 1: had been in his family's possession for literal centuries and
- 9:50Speaker 1: was the only tangible connection she his mother still had
- 9:54Speaker 1: to her home country, which incidentally is also my mother's
- 9:58Speaker 1: home country, which he wasn't aware, meaning what I thought
- 10:01Speaker 1: was a thoughtful connection to my trip, there was a
- 10:03Speaker 1: total coincidence. He had no idea of the item's cultural significance. Wow,
- 10:07Speaker 1: my friend immediately made him call his mom to fesce
- 10:09Speaker 1: up to the entire situation. His mother had been running
- 10:11Speaker 1: herself ragged trying to figure out where this item disappeared
- 10:14Speaker 1: to for days. Oh my, that poor mother. Obviously she
- 10:18Speaker 1: never suspected thavery and was blaming herself terribly for having
- 10:22Speaker 1: lost something this important. The boyfriend actually had the goal
- 10:25Speaker 1: to try to convince her not to make her call
- 10:28Speaker 1: his mom. What he wanted to sweep the entire thing
- 10:31Speaker 1: under the rug. Of course, we didn't let that happen.
- 10:33Speaker 1: His mother came by my place this morning and returned
- 10:35Speaker 1: the item to her, along with some apologies for not
- 10:37Speaker 1: starting investigations immediately and some nice chocolate. That's so nice.
- 10:42Speaker 1: We had a lovely conversation about our shared cultural heritage
- 10:45Speaker 1: and assured her that the item had been treated with
- 10:47Speaker 1: dignity for the entire time it was in my possession.
- 10:50Speaker 1: And then I fell in love with his mother and
- 10:52Speaker 1: we lived happily ever after. I'm just kidding. It doesn't
- 10:54Speaker 1: say that, but that would make it so juicy, wouldn't it.
- 10:56Speaker 1: And we parted ways with a hug. She also told
- 10:58Speaker 1: me that my initial estimate of the item's value was incorrect.
- 11:02Speaker 1: It's actually worth even more money. It would probably sell
- 11:04Speaker 1: for a four figure sum at auction. Oh my god,
- 11:07Speaker 1: he should go to jail for a night at least.
- 11:09Speaker 1: I don't know what she wants to do with her son,
- 11:10Speaker 1: but I hope she whoops his ass. Amen, my friend,
- 11:13Speaker 1: for obvious reasons, broke up with him. Lessons learned. Google
- 11:16Speaker 1: suspicious gifts and lock away your sentimentals, slash valuables when
- 11:19Speaker 1: people you're not entirely sure about come over the gall
- 11:22Speaker 1: of this man, that's insane. I never would have guessed that,
- 11:24Speaker 1: that's really crazy. I'm glad that she got it back,
- 11:27Speaker 1: Thank goodness. I'm really glad you didn't sell it to
- 11:30Speaker 1: get something else or go on a trip. Like I said,
- 11:33Speaker 1: I feel really evil right now, but I'm glad. And
- 11:37Speaker 1: luckily somebody asked in the post what the gift was,
- 11:40Speaker 1: and I think Gop answered. So let's read that because
- 11:42Speaker 1: I need to know. I'll write it right. It's super specific,
- 11:44Speaker 1: but it's a special kind of religious devotional triptych made
- 11:48Speaker 1: in a case of my particular one of silver and
- 11:51Speaker 1: real rubies. Oh that's my birthstone. I have a little
- 11:54Speaker 1: tiny anybity little tiny ruby right here. That's crazy. They're
- 11:59Speaker 1: called travel triptychs am I saying that, right? I really
- 12:02Speaker 1: want to look up what this is? Oh cool kind
- 12:06Speaker 1: of just they're like, look like those Oh yeah, what
- 12:09Speaker 1: a beautiful gift. Yeah, I'd be so confused. I'd be like, what, like,
- 12:13Speaker 1: first of all, how did you know that I just
- 12:16Speaker 1: guessed crazy crazy? Well, I've got it all sorted I
- 12:19Speaker 1: got it all sorted out, and that he's not in
- 12:20Speaker 1: love with you, and it's not like some weird like
- 12:22Speaker 1: you're still friends with your friend. You gotta fall in
- 12:25Speaker 1: love with his mother. It's gonna be great. I love
- 12:28Speaker 1: this for you. Let's move on. What do you guys think?
- 12:30Speaker 1: All right? Next up, we have am I the scilly
- 12:32Speaker 1: wig for skipping my friend's birthday without warning because his
- 12:35Speaker 1: girlfriend calls me the typical girl best friend. Okay, so
- 12:39Speaker 1: you skipped your friend's birthday without warning because his girlfriend
- 12:44Speaker 1: calls you the typical girl best friend. So you're the
- 12:47Speaker 1: girl I'm gonna. I'm gonna walk into this really open minded.
- 12:51Speaker 1: We'll see. Okay, I'm really rooting for you that you're
- 12:54Speaker 1: not that typical girl best friend. Okay, I want to
- 12:58Speaker 1: be on your side. Let's read. Miles and I have
- 13:00Speaker 1: known each other since we were two because our parents
- 13:03Speaker 1: are best friends. Now, I would not say Miles is
- 13:06Speaker 1: my best friend. He has a good friend and we
- 13:08Speaker 1: do hang out on occasion, but see each other on
- 13:10Speaker 1: all major holidays because of our parents. Okay, we're already
- 13:14Speaker 1: this is reasonable right now, we are in our early twenties.
- 13:17Speaker 1: The problem started because of a dumb childhood memory. When
- 13:20Speaker 1: we were eight, we had a wedding play on school
- 13:22Speaker 1: after care. I played the bride and Miles the groom.
- 13:25Speaker 1: It was a play with horrible songs and uncoordinated kids. Obviously,
- 13:29Speaker 1: our parents made pictures and videos of that, and we
- 13:31Speaker 1: each have one picture on our family picture walls. Miles
- 13:34Speaker 1: is dating Lindy. They met three years ago and started
- 13:37Speaker 1: dating last year. Lindy does not like me, so every
- 13:40Speaker 1: time we coincide at a celebration, she makes a comment
- 13:43Speaker 1: about me being the typical girl best friend. She one
- 13:46Speaker 1: time said that I secretly wanted to sleep with Miles.
- 13:49Speaker 1: I have no clue where she got that impression from.
- 13:51Speaker 1: Miles and I have different friend groups and schedules. Besides
- 13:54Speaker 1: the monthly catch up over food, we didn't really meet
- 13:57Speaker 1: that much. Things got worse when Lindy saw the wedding
- 13:59Speaker 1: play pictures. The comments just got more. She even started
- 14:02Speaker 1: dming me on Instagram saying she knew what game I
- 14:05Speaker 1: was playing. Okay, so Lindy, Lindy might have some insecurity
- 14:10Speaker 1: issues maybe, And you know, it's it's it's hard seeing
- 14:14Speaker 1: just another person probably of the same age, around the
- 14:16Speaker 1: same age as you, is that's really close with your
- 14:18Speaker 1: significant other. I get that that is hard, but you
- 14:21Speaker 1: also need to look at what is actually happening, Like
- 14:24Speaker 1: are they spending a whole lot of time together? Does
- 14:26Speaker 1: he care about her opinion more than your all the
- 14:29Speaker 1: there's little things that do matter. And I mean we
- 14:32Speaker 1: see a monthly food thing. Is it like is it alone?
- 14:36Speaker 1: Is it? I don't know. I need to read more.
- 14:39Speaker 1: I talked to Miles once about this and he told
- 14:41Speaker 1: me to give her time. So his birthday was on
- 14:44Speaker 1: Saturday and I was invited. Lindy wrote me saying something
- 14:47Speaker 1: along the lines that she was going to supervise me.
- 14:50Speaker 1: This was the first birthday as a couple, and I
- 14:51Speaker 1: was not allowed to take up his time. I was
- 14:53Speaker 1: honestly just fed up. I tried talking to Miles once more,
- 14:56Speaker 1: but he said the same thing. Okay, Well, sometimes people
- 15:00Speaker 1: get together, it's like they decide as a couple to
- 15:03Speaker 1: put up boundaries, which they can, and unfortunately you're getting
- 15:08Speaker 1: the short end of the stick there, And I don't
- 15:10Speaker 1: really know what there is to do about it, but
- 15:11Speaker 1: just like, let it either run its course or just
- 15:14Speaker 1: the friendship might fizzle out, unfortunately, but I'll keep reading.
- 15:17Speaker 1: So I just skipped out, probably the best thing you
- 15:20Speaker 1: could have done, because that just sounds exhausting to be around.
- 15:22Speaker 1: When the party started, I wrote a quick sorry I
- 15:24Speaker 1: can't come and told him my mother was going to
- 15:26Speaker 1: bring his present. Now he's upset with me for missing
- 15:29Speaker 1: his birthday. Lindy is mad that I made it all
- 15:31Speaker 1: about myself, and my parents are upset I missed a
- 15:34Speaker 1: family function, right, because I mean, the whole family's there.
- 15:37Speaker 1: That's what's weird. It's like it's kind of a weird situation.
- 15:39Speaker 1: I understand that, but like, the families know each other
- 15:42Speaker 1: and it's just like a thing that happens, So it
- 15:44Speaker 1: is something that Lindy would have to understand, but also
- 15:48Speaker 1: doesn't have to necessarily because I'm just picturing Lindy making
- 15:51Speaker 1: a post being like this girl always comes around like
- 15:54Speaker 1: I'm super uncomfortable with it, YadA YadA, And what I
- 15:56Speaker 1: would tell her is to just bring it up with Miles,
- 15:59Speaker 1: let her know how she feels, ask if boundaries are
- 16:02Speaker 1: a possibility, and then just go from there. So I'm
- 16:04Speaker 1: trying to see it from every angle. So it says,
- 16:06Speaker 1: am I the asshole. I don't think you're the asshole
- 16:08Speaker 1: for skipping out. I mean, clearly Lindy does not like you,
- 16:12Speaker 1: she's trying to set up boundaries, and Miles agreed with that.
- 16:16Speaker 1: I don't think you're the asshole at all in this situation. Personally,
- 16:19Speaker 1: I would have removed myself. I'm like, okay, and then
- 16:21Speaker 1: I'm not welcome, so I don't really want to be there.
- 16:23Speaker 1: There's an edit and it says I didn't show anyone
- 16:25Speaker 1: the messages because I didn't want to make more of
- 16:28Speaker 1: this than it is. I didn't want to poison anyone
- 16:31Speaker 1: against Lindy, especially not if she is a new fixture
- 16:34Speaker 1: in miles life. That would make both of our lives
- 16:36Speaker 1: more difficult. I hope they just talking about it might
- 16:38Speaker 1: be the more adult thing. I agree, Yeah, like sending
- 16:41Speaker 1: messages out to different people that would have definitely tainted
- 16:43Speaker 1: it and everything. I think you took the high road
- 16:45Speaker 1: in that way. My parents are not mad at me
- 16:47Speaker 1: or blowing up my phone. I'llah Reddit fashion. They and
- 16:51Speaker 1: miles parents were just bummed out that this was the
- 16:53Speaker 1: first birthday that I ever missed. That's fair as to
- 16:56Speaker 1: why she's jealous, I have no idea. Neither of our
- 16:58Speaker 1: parents ever wanted us to get together. There were no
- 17:01Speaker 1: jokes or anything about it. I think they also never
- 17:04Speaker 1: would want that the wedding play picture is in the
- 17:06Speaker 1: living rooms because they loved the picture and it was
- 17:08Speaker 1: our first play. That's fair. I guess people were, you know,
- 17:11Speaker 1: mitching and moan in the comments and all that kind
- 17:12Speaker 1: of stuff. But she answered it and there's an update,
- 17:14Speaker 1: so I'm just going to go right to that. I
- 17:15Speaker 1: will update you in the first part and clarify some
- 17:17Speaker 1: things later. After my post, I talked to Myles. At first,
- 17:20Speaker 1: he was kind of mad and thought I'd been blowing
- 17:22Speaker 1: things out of proportion. Some more details are in my
- 17:25Speaker 1: latest post. We came to the conclusion of taking more
- 17:28Speaker 1: distance while he figures that out, mainly because I did
- 17:30Speaker 1: not want the added stress of petty drama. Then I
- 17:33Speaker 1: talked to my parents and explained to them what was
- 17:34Speaker 1: going on. They were really upset by how Lindy treated me.
- 17:38Speaker 1: Obviously they weren't going to get involved, but it was
- 17:40Speaker 1: nice to get that off my chest. Then nothing else
- 17:43Speaker 1: happened until Tuesday evening. Wednesday was a holiday, so some
- 17:47Speaker 1: of the friends took the opportunity to go to an
- 17:49Speaker 1: Irish pub to do karaoke. At some point, my best
- 17:52Speaker 1: friend and I went to pee and touch up our makeup.
- 17:54Speaker 1: Then Lindy and some of her friends walked in and
- 17:56Speaker 1: kind of cornered us. It wasn't pretty. They started loudly
- 17:59Speaker 1: to talking about man stealing bitches and how some women
- 18:02Speaker 1: were just born to be home wreckers. Okay, see I
- 18:05Speaker 1: don't like Lindy. I'm not on Lindy's side. I'm in
- 18:08Speaker 1: the bathroom with you touching up your makeup, okay, And
- 18:10Speaker 1: then we're to Lindy right the elbow, right in the face.
- 18:15Speaker 1: We're face wreckers, not home wreckers, man. And imagine being
- 18:18Speaker 1: pathetic enough to pretend to be a guy's friend to
- 18:20Speaker 1: fame and how pick mees are the worst. That sucks
- 18:23Speaker 1: that she was just going off like that. That's like
- 18:25Speaker 1: embarrassing for her in so many ways. I would have
- 18:28Speaker 1: just been like, yeah, that's crazy. I don't know. Like
- 18:31Speaker 1: they kept kind of edging us physically into the part
- 18:34Speaker 1: where the hand drivers were while pretending we were not there,
- 18:37Speaker 1: until my best friend had enough and just pushed through
- 18:40Speaker 1: them while pulling me behind her. We were almost at
- 18:43Speaker 1: our table when Lindy went right behind me and pulled
- 18:45Speaker 1: my hair. Lindy, she's about to get its whooped? Pulled
- 18:51Speaker 1: your hair? What is she? Five? This is insane. So
- 18:54Speaker 1: that I fell backward onto like a metallic piece where
- 18:58Speaker 1: you were supposed to put your your feet on. It
- 19:01Speaker 1: hurts so bad that I started to see white. So
- 19:04Speaker 1: that's a salt. And you could call the police and
- 19:08Speaker 1: get her rested, okay, And I know they have cameras
- 19:11Speaker 1: because you're at a bar. Hopefully if it's not like
- 19:13Speaker 1: a dingy dive bar or something, you could literally get
- 19:16Speaker 1: her arrested for that. You did nothing to provoke that,
- 19:18Speaker 1: that's insane. And then a girl next to Lindy poured
- 19:21Speaker 1: beer on me. I cannot really tell you what happened,
- 19:24Speaker 1: but there was a scuffle and someone dropped one of
- 19:27Speaker 1: those heavy pint glasses on my head. You got assaulted
- 19:32Speaker 1: by multiple people. I hope they all trip on the
- 19:36Speaker 1: lines of a sidewalk for the rest of their lives
- 19:39Speaker 1: and fall up and downstairs. And their pillows always hot,
- 19:43Speaker 1: and their coffee is always cold unless they like it cold.
- 19:46Speaker 1: Then I wanted hot. These bitches, the Lindy's were taken
- 19:49Speaker 1: away by police woo woo, and I was taken to
- 19:53Speaker 1: the hospital. My parents were furious, as were Miles's parents.
- 19:56Speaker 1: They both came to the hospital. I was severely concussed.
- 19:58Speaker 1: My nose was fracture, and the worst thing is that
- 20:01Speaker 1: I have a hairline fracture in my back. I stayed
- 20:04Speaker 1: in the hospital till yesterday morning. Myles did try calling
- 20:08Speaker 1: me a bunch. According to my parents, they told him
- 20:10Speaker 1: not to visit me right now. I did get an
- 20:12Speaker 1: official notice saying that apparently there was now a legal
- 20:15Speaker 1: case open against Lindy and one other girl for not
- 20:18Speaker 1: only assault but also public disturbance in the bar. So
- 20:22Speaker 1: now I'll have to deal with all that legally. I
- 20:24Speaker 1: finally talked to Myles. Long story short. Those of you
- 20:27Speaker 1: saying Lindy was isolating him was a sign that of
- 20:30Speaker 1: an abusive relationship was right for sure, Like there are
- 20:32Speaker 1: relationships where that is okay and healthy, where it's like
- 20:35Speaker 1: you're spending way too much time with that person. I'm
- 20:37Speaker 1: not super comfortable with that, Like, if I'm going to
- 20:39Speaker 1: continue this, there needs to be some balance. But this
- 20:42Speaker 1: seemed like you barely saw him and your famili's were friends.
- 20:45Speaker 1: Like she was next level crazy and I mean assaulting you.
- 20:49Speaker 1: I'm glad that that we figured that out early on.
- 20:53Speaker 1: Like it's just like this is pretty reasonable, and I'm
- 20:55Speaker 1: glad that she got arrested. That's awesome and that'll be
- 20:58Speaker 1: on her record forever. He told me all the things
- 21:01Speaker 1: she said to make him, to make him feel awful.
- 21:03Speaker 1: She would freak out about anything in her life and
- 21:05Speaker 1: take that out on him. She would scratch him and
- 21:08Speaker 1: bite him when she was mad. Our talk ended with
- 21:10Speaker 1: both of us crying and apologizing. We will be closer again.
- 21:13Speaker 1: At least we can talk about these things more often.
- 21:16Speaker 1: He broke up with her and it is hiding at
- 21:17Speaker 1: my parents' house. I'm really sorry that you and him
- 21:21Speaker 1: had to go through that, but thank goodness that she's
- 21:24Speaker 1: out of y'all's life. What a monster. And now, low key,
- 21:28Speaker 1: I'm going to need you guys to get together for me.
- 21:31Speaker 1: It's my birthday, come on, just kidding. No, I'm glad
- 21:35Speaker 1: that you guys have each other as friends. That's really
- 21:37Speaker 1: great that you can support each other in this. So
- 21:39Speaker 1: let me know what you guys think. Have you been
- 21:40Speaker 1: in a situation like this? And all let's read another one?
- 21:44Speaker 1: All right? Next up, we have a today. I screwed
- 21:47Speaker 1: up and it's today. I screwed up my wife's birthday present. Okay,
- 21:51Speaker 1: so let me preface this by saying that my wife
- 21:53Speaker 1: is not a gamer, but I'm a gamer. I'm a gamer.
- 21:56Speaker 1: I'm a chad gamer. I played to hims like Cod
- 21:58Speaker 1: and Ring and like skyriman Oblivion and I'm so Alstone.
- 22:04Speaker 1: I like all those games. I'm not gonna lie. Actually
- 22:07Speaker 1: I don't really play a lot of cod Halo, though
- 22:09Speaker 1: Halo is fantastic. But I managed to get her into
- 22:12Speaker 1: animal crossing and she's put one hundred and thirty hours
- 22:15Speaker 1: in over the last years. Am she is a gamer?
- 22:18Speaker 1: That's cool. I've never played Animal Crossing, but I hear
- 22:20Speaker 1: a lot of people like it. I've never played it myself,
- 22:23Speaker 1: but she has a great time, so we're all happy.
- 22:25Speaker 1: Cool awesome. Get to today, where I am in possession
- 22:28Speaker 1: of a shiny new switch too. I thought it would
- 22:31Speaker 1: be nice to give her my old switch for her birthday.
- 22:34Speaker 1: You're going to give her a hand me down switch
- 22:37Speaker 1: and get yourself a new one, did I hear that correctly?
- 22:40Speaker 1: I thought it would be nice to give her my
- 22:41Speaker 1: old switch and buy her a copy of Animal Crossing
- 22:44Speaker 1: for her birthday. So I transferred all my data off
- 22:47Speaker 1: and initialized the old switch and waited well when she
- 22:51Speaker 1: booted up her very own copy on her very own
- 22:53Speaker 1: switch and was prompted to start a new island. Weird.
- 22:57Speaker 1: I poked around for a bit as the horrifying realize
- 23:00Speaker 1: dawned on me. Her island didn't transfer. I have hundreds
- 23:06Speaker 1: of hours in multiple games, don't judge me. If my
- 23:10Speaker 1: save didn't transfer for like Oblivion or like Skyrim or something,
- 23:15Speaker 1: I would be devastated. So I am horrified. For her
- 23:20Speaker 1: right now, not only that that she got a hand
- 23:21Speaker 1: me down switch, but because you deleted oh my god,
- 23:26Speaker 1: her island didn't transfer. Turns out you need to do
- 23:29Speaker 1: a manual backup, and I didn't know that. So now
- 23:31Speaker 1: her island is gone and she's devastated that I nuked
- 23:34Speaker 1: one hundred and thirty hours of her life. Happy birthday. Listen,
- 23:37Speaker 1: I know accidents happen, Like if I don't know, if
- 23:40Speaker 1: Caleb like tried to transfer something for me and something happened,
- 23:43Speaker 1: like it would suck, but I wouldn't. I'd just be like,
- 23:45Speaker 1: it's okay, Like it's you didn't know, there's nothing you
- 23:48Speaker 1: can do about it, but that sucks. But we're just
- 23:52Speaker 1: glazing over. Not only did you delete it, but it's
- 23:54Speaker 1: like you got a new one for yourself and you're
- 23:57Speaker 1: giving her the old one. You suck, Like what, I'm sorry,
- 24:03Speaker 1: I don't know. That just seems crazy to me. It'd
- 24:05Speaker 1: be one thing to just give her your switch. That'd
- 24:08Speaker 1: be really nice. I don't know. Maybe I'm is that crazy.
- 24:11Speaker 1: I feel like that's like that's so weird. Maybe I'm crazy.
- 24:14Speaker 1: I don't know. I need to read the comments. But
- 24:17Speaker 1: you did. You did screw up. This isn't like, am
- 24:19Speaker 1: I the asshole? But honestly, you're a little bit like
- 24:21Speaker 1: a soft No, you would just kind of are I
- 24:24Speaker 1: think you kind of r I need to read the comments.
- 24:26Speaker 1: Thank you. First comment, you need to give her your
- 24:28Speaker 1: brand new switch to for her birthday now, it's only fair. Amen. Also,
- 24:32Speaker 1: if she put one hundred and thirty hours into Animal Crossing,
- 24:34Speaker 1: she's a gamer. Now if she played AC on your
- 24:37Speaker 1: old console on your account, there's a chance that the
- 24:40Speaker 1: save is still on your account, if you had any
- 24:43Speaker 1: saves in the cloud. Yeah. I don't know how all
- 24:44Speaker 1: that works totally, so hopefully not. The comment says, happy birthday,
- 24:48Speaker 1: here's our used shit. Also, I deleted your stuff either
- 24:52Speaker 1: rage made or genuinely a brain dead person? Oh like
- 24:55Speaker 1: actually though, thank you? So I feel Oh we have
- 24:58Speaker 1: an update. Okay, let's read the app. So yesterday I
- 25:01Speaker 1: posted how I screwed up by deleting my wife's Animal
- 25:04Speaker 1: Crossing island in a failed transfer. She was very sad,
- 25:06Speaker 1: but I promised her I'd start my own island and
- 25:09Speaker 1: play with her so she wouldn't have to rebuild herself.
- 25:11Speaker 1: That's nice at least also give her the new switch.
- 25:14Speaker 1: When I went to start my own island, Tom Nuke
- 25:17Speaker 1: told me he had some old saved data he didn't
- 25:19Speaker 1: know what to do with. Turns out it was my
- 25:21Speaker 1: wife's island. I went onto her account, enabled back and
- 25:25Speaker 1: let it do its thing. Back up, saved overnight, and
- 25:27Speaker 1: she was able to log into her island this morning,
- 25:29Speaker 1: and everything is still intact. Not much more to share, really,
- 25:31Speaker 1: thanks to everyone who was wishing me well and gave
- 25:33Speaker 1: advice on how to recover it. Just glazing over the
- 25:37Speaker 1: fact that he gave her just a shitty old switch.
- 25:41Speaker 1: Comment says good. Now go buy her an actual birthday present.
- 25:44Speaker 1: Ohpi says she really enjoyed the necklace and giant plushy
- 25:47Speaker 1: I got her. I didn't cut that part, so I
- 25:49Speaker 1: didn't mention it. You should have mentioned that in the update,
- 25:52Speaker 1: my guy, I don't know. I still don't really. I
- 25:54Speaker 1: mean whatever, she seems happy. I'm glad she got her
- 25:56Speaker 1: safe back at least, you know, and she could enjoy
- 25:59Speaker 1: the game on her own sweat which whatever. Maybe I'm
- 26:01Speaker 1: being petty. Maybe I want the best for her. Sue
- 26:04Speaker 1: me be better, Chad. I think we have time for
- 26:06Speaker 1: one more. So let's read one more. All right, let
- 26:08Speaker 1: me know the worst birthday gift that you've ever gotten.
- 26:11Speaker 1: I know mine, and I think I've mentioned it here before,
- 26:13Speaker 1: but it was a sandwich maker that that I didn't
- 26:20Speaker 1: even get to keep at my house. I had to
- 26:22Speaker 1: make sandwiches at their house for them, but it was
- 26:25Speaker 1: for me to make sandwiches for them. I won't go
- 26:27Speaker 1: into any more detail, but yeah, all right. Next up,
- 26:29Speaker 1: we have Emily the Scallywig, for showing up to my
- 26:31Speaker 1: nephew's birthday party without the cupcakes. I said, I would
- 26:35Speaker 1: make better have a good excuse, because cupcakes. Dessert makes
- 26:40Speaker 1: a birthday. Okay, we don't need dinner, you just need dessert.
- 26:43Speaker 1: In my personal opinion, and I have I can. I
- 26:46Speaker 1: can stand by that because I went to go visit
- 26:48Speaker 1: my family in Canada and this was the They know
- 26:52Speaker 1: I like desserts. So look at the amount everybody. Everybody
- 26:57Speaker 1: brought desserts. Look at that so many desserts. I was
- 27:01Speaker 1: in literal dessert heaven. It was awesome. Let's read. A
- 27:04Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago was my nephew Sam's tenth birthday.
- 27:06Speaker 1: I love Sam so much. I will probably not be
- 27:09Speaker 1: lucky enough to have my own son, so I'm so
- 27:11Speaker 1: happy to be able to know him. But I don't
- 27:13Speaker 1: have a great relationship with my older brother. He did
- 27:15Speaker 1: everything the right way, good grades, good school, good job,
- 27:18Speaker 1: good wife. I've always been jealous at how easily being
- 27:21Speaker 1: normal comes to him. I did not do well in
- 27:23Speaker 1: school and got on a lot of trouble, didn't finish college.
- 27:25Speaker 1: I picked shitty boyfriends. Basically every wrong choice you could make.
- 27:28Speaker 1: Suffice to say, he and I are not on the
- 27:30Speaker 1: same page, and he doesn't take me seriously. But the
- 27:32Speaker 1: one thing he does appreciate is that I can bake.
- 27:35Speaker 1: He asked if I could bake cupcakes for the party
- 27:37Speaker 1: in a Spider Man theme, of course, edited to add
- 27:40Speaker 1: that Sam did not know they were going to be
- 27:42Speaker 1: a surprise. Spider Man is just his favorite superhero. Well,
- 27:45Speaker 1: then I was laid off. I didn't do anything wrong
- 27:47Speaker 1: except to be the last person hired. I was devastated
- 27:50Speaker 1: and ended up drinking with my roommates instead of baking
- 27:52Speaker 1: the cupcakes. It just felt like another and a long
- 27:56Speaker 1: line of stupid things. I ended up going to the
- 27:58Speaker 1: grocery store and buying cupcakes. Okay, well, at least you
- 28:01Speaker 1: brought something at two different stores, which was hard on
- 28:04Speaker 1: the bus, but it was important. Thank god it's graduation season.
- 28:08Speaker 1: I showed up and told my brother upfront what happened
- 28:11Speaker 1: and apologized so they she didn't come empty handed. He said,
- 28:14Speaker 1: you've got to be kidding me. He was furious. I
- 28:17Speaker 1: apologized a bunch of times. I never once made an excuse.
- 28:19Speaker 1: It was one hundred percent entirely my fault. He told
- 28:22Speaker 1: me that I shouldn't have even come, and the cupcakes
- 28:25Speaker 1: were the only reason he'd invited me. That's just me.
- 28:28Speaker 1: I felt awful and left without seeing Sam. Oh, don't
- 28:31Speaker 1: take it out on sam. My mom called me when
- 28:34Speaker 1: I was on the bus ride home to ask me
- 28:36Speaker 1: why I would be such an airhead and show up
- 28:38Speaker 1: without the only thing I was invited for. I am
- 28:41Speaker 1: so your family sounds horrible. Like, I get that he
- 28:45Speaker 1: screwed up a bit, but that's rough. She said. She
- 28:49Speaker 1: thought she raised me smarter than that, but then said, well,
- 28:51Speaker 1: I guess not, with an ugly little ha at the end.
- 28:54Speaker 1: This is like so unbelievable that I almost don't believe it.
- 28:57Speaker 1: But I'm really sorry if this is true. This is crazy,
- 29:00Speaker 1: except that I have fully one thousand percent responsible for
- 29:03Speaker 1: not having Spider Man cupcakes. But I think I did
- 29:05Speaker 1: my best to try to make up for it by
- 29:07Speaker 1: getting any cupcakes I couldn't I could find. I didn't
- 29:09Speaker 1: show up empty handed. I didn't put it on them
- 29:11Speaker 1: to come up with a solution. Am I wrong? And
- 29:14Speaker 1: was it the wrong thing to do? I mean Sam
- 29:16Speaker 1: didn't expect them, so that's good at least, and I'm
- 29:19Speaker 1: glad you came with something. And I mean I don't
- 29:21Speaker 1: know the history. I mean you told the history. You
- 29:23Speaker 1: said that you know, stuff is just not worked out
- 29:25Speaker 1: in your favor and all these things, and you know
- 29:28Speaker 1: your your brother is very like he's doing really well
- 29:32Speaker 1: in life, and YadA, YadA, YadA. I don't know. I mean,
- 29:34Speaker 1: your family sucks, first of all. And it was just
- 29:37Speaker 1: like the one thing you were supposed to do. So
- 29:39Speaker 1: it does suck that you didn't pull through with it.
- 29:41Speaker 1: I like, if you didn't bring cupcakes, I would have
- 29:43Speaker 1: been like, dude, what like, come on, I get you
- 29:46Speaker 1: got fired. That does suck. Some of the comments say,
- 29:49Speaker 1: did you tell Sam that you're making the cupcakes? What
- 29:51Speaker 1: the theme was? Hi? I just wanted to correct one thing,
- 29:53Speaker 1: but I'm not arguing I didn't tell Sam it was
- 29:56Speaker 1: going to be a special surprise for him. He wasn't
- 29:57Speaker 1: expecting Spider Man cupcakes and that's just favorite superhero. Sam
- 30:01Speaker 1: didn't know I was making the cupcakes. I took the
- 30:02Speaker 1: toppers off the cupcakes. They were all black and white
- 30:05Speaker 1: and yellow. Though. I don't understand why you're making things
- 30:08Speaker 1: up that didn't happen. He didn't ask for a Spider
- 30:10Speaker 1: Man theme. He didn't know he was having a party
- 30:13Speaker 1: to begin with. Another comment says, not the asshole for
- 30:15Speaker 1: the question that you asked for judgment on, which is
- 30:17Speaker 1: if you were the asshole for showing up without the cupcakes,
- 30:20Speaker 1: given that he didn't even know he was getting a
- 30:22Speaker 1: Spider Man cupcakes. He got cupcakes in the end. I
- 30:25Speaker 1: don't think you're the asshole for showing up. You said
- 30:27Speaker 1: this was a few weeks ago. Has anyone in your
- 30:29Speaker 1: family REACHEDHUT or said anything about you being laid off
- 30:31Speaker 1: or do they care? Oh? He says my dad did
- 30:34Speaker 1: because he saw there was news about layoffs at my company,
- 30:36Speaker 1: but no one else has said anything. They might not know.
- 30:40Speaker 1: I don't think they look at the same news as
- 30:42Speaker 1: my dad does. Dang. Another Copt said, your family is awful,
- 30:46Speaker 1: but I'm more concerned that you couldn't control your desire
- 30:48Speaker 1: to drink enough to fulfill your promise. You may need
- 30:50Speaker 1: to consider you have a drinking problem that is far
- 30:52Speaker 1: bigger than cupcakes. Your family is still being awful, But
- 30:55Speaker 1: my guess is that this isn't the first time substance
- 30:58Speaker 1: has been an issue with you. And then, yeah, as
- 31:00Speaker 1: someone who has somebody in their family that has an
- 31:03Speaker 1: issue with this, yeah, I get that vibe. It's hard
- 31:07Speaker 1: to like assume that though, you know, because we only
- 31:09Speaker 1: have so much information, But based off the information we have,
- 31:12Speaker 1: it's probably habit and families probably just over it. Does
- 31:15Speaker 1: I give them the right to treat him like a
- 31:17Speaker 1: subhuman No, not at all. Op answered that and said,
- 31:21Speaker 1: you are correct, it is not the first time substances
- 31:23Speaker 1: had been a problem with me. In them When I
- 31:25Speaker 1: was in high school, I got drunk at a party
- 31:27Speaker 1: and had to call my dad to come get me.
- 31:28Speaker 1: It was two am, it was very tired, and we
- 31:31Speaker 1: had a minor accident on the way back to the house.
- 31:33Speaker 1: He was very proud of that car because it was
- 31:35Speaker 1: the first thing he bought new and paid off and
- 31:37Speaker 1: then in college, I participated in the end of the
- 31:39Speaker 1: year campus party. I made a poor decision to wear
- 31:41Speaker 1: new heels and drink and slipped on some stairs, broke
- 31:44Speaker 1: my ankle, and needed them to come get me earlier
- 31:46Speaker 1: than expected. Okay, So, I mean, it doesn't sound like you're,
- 31:49Speaker 1: you know, a raging alcoholic or something. You've had a
- 31:51Speaker 1: few classic younger years where you know, you go a
- 31:55Speaker 1: little crazy or whatever. But I don't know. Yeah, really
- 31:58Speaker 1: kind of just kind of seems like everybody's suck, especially
- 32:00Speaker 1: your family. I feel like there's an update, though, so
- 32:02Speaker 1: let's read that. Hi. Thanks off for the comments before
- 32:04Speaker 1: about me failing to bring the Spider Man cupcakes to
- 32:07Speaker 1: my nephew's party. I think I have an okay update
- 32:09Speaker 1: to share. I was sort of spiraling when I wrote
- 32:11Speaker 1: my post before, and that it happens very often to me. Yes,
- 32:14Speaker 1: I messed up, but life goes on. I have not
- 32:16Speaker 1: been able to find a good job, but I have
- 32:17Speaker 1: been making ends meet with cleaning houses. I did that
- 32:20Speaker 1: for ten years. It was a great cake. I just
- 32:22Speaker 1: want to listen to podcasts and music and just cleaned.
- 32:24Speaker 1: It was also last week my family got together for
- 32:26Speaker 1: Thanksgiving and surprised my nephew by bringing him a small
- 32:28Speaker 1: batch of Spider Man cupcakes, and he was over the moon.
- 32:31Speaker 1: My brother thanked me for it, so that was nice.
- 32:34Speaker 1: My mom said better late than never, I guess, and
- 32:36Speaker 1: she and my dad laughed together. I also baked a
- 32:38Speaker 1: pie to bring, but I ended up dropping it. I'm sorry.
- 32:43Speaker 1: That sucks. It's just like sometimes it's just the amount
- 32:47Speaker 1: of things, the amount of times I've just like made
- 32:50Speaker 1: something and dropped it or since been ruined. I just
- 32:51Speaker 1: I've sympathized with this. For the first time in my life,
- 32:54Speaker 1: I stood up for myself against them and told them
- 32:56Speaker 1: that it was really hurtful that they can't ever just
- 32:58Speaker 1: be supportive, reflect on all the ways over the years
- 33:01Speaker 1: they haven't just taken me seriously or have ignored my
- 33:04Speaker 1: small wins because I don't get the big ones like
- 33:06Speaker 1: my brother. They argued with me, and then probably the
- 33:09Speaker 1: best thing ever happened, my sister in law stood up
- 33:11Speaker 1: for me. We love that. She said that ever since
- 33:14Speaker 1: she's been part of this family, she's seen the way
- 33:16Speaker 1: they talked to me and about me and laugh at
- 33:19Speaker 1: me behind my back and treat me like someone else's daughter.
- 33:21Speaker 1: She said they have been doing it for years. They
- 33:23Speaker 1: tried to pull the she knows it's out of love
- 33:25Speaker 1: card on me and told them that I don't feel
- 33:28Speaker 1: loved by them and never have, and brought up that
- 33:30Speaker 1: she said the only reason I have ever been invited
- 33:32Speaker 1: to a party was for the cupcakes fire your family.
- 33:36Speaker 1: Mom tried to say that wasn't true, but my sister
- 33:38Speaker 1: in law stopped her and said that's exactly what she said.
- 33:41Speaker 1: My mom and dad were quiet for a little bit,
- 33:43Speaker 1: and then my dad said he didn't realize how sensitive
- 33:46Speaker 1: I am, and they'll try to do better. Just backheaded.
- 33:48Speaker 1: Didn't really so sensitive? You were, Yes, we won't just
- 33:51Speaker 1: we just won't talk anymore. I hate that reaction so much.
- 33:54Speaker 1: I was so happy. I mean, you know we're not there,
- 33:56Speaker 1: but it sounds like you guys resolved it to a
- 33:58Speaker 1: certain degree. Really glad you have a boss bitch sister
- 34:00Speaker 1: in law. Yes, I thank my sister in law so much,
- 34:02Speaker 1: and we have been texting a ton. I didn't realize
- 34:05Speaker 1: she liked me. I think twenty twenty six is going
- 34:06Speaker 1: to be my year, and I'm excited. I think so.
- 34:08Speaker 1: My biggest hope is to find a job that helps
- 34:10Speaker 1: me save money so that I can get my own
- 34:12Speaker 1: place by twenty twenty eight to marry Holidays everyone. That's good. Well,
- 34:15Speaker 1: I'm glad you have somebody in the family, even if
- 34:17Speaker 1: it's like technically you know, you're guys married into the family.
- 34:20Speaker 1: But I'm glad you have somebody that you can at
- 34:22Speaker 1: least talk to about this, because not every family's perfect.
- 34:25Speaker 1: But it sucks to feel like a like a outsider
- 34:28Speaker 1: in your own family. Like what a rough feeling. But
- 34:31Speaker 1: you know, I think it is going to be your year.
- 34:33Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be awesome, and I think it's
- 34:36Speaker 1: gonna be everybody's year out there. I think it's gonna
- 34:38Speaker 1: be everybody's year. I'm thirty. I know what's gonna be
- 34:40Speaker 1: by year. Man, this is where life begins. I think
- 34:43Speaker 1: that's what I've heard. I feel like it. I care
- 34:45Speaker 1: less and I'm just like happier in general. I feel
- 34:48Speaker 1: like I just comparisons the thief of joy, and I'm
- 34:52Speaker 1: really living with that. I'm coming into who I am
- 34:54Speaker 1: and I love my job, and I love the people
- 34:59Speaker 1: I'm around, my husband and my animals and my family
- 35:02Speaker 1: and friends, and it's just it's really good. I'm trying
- 35:04Speaker 1: to just focus on all the good things in life.
- 35:06Speaker 1: It's awesome and I'm really, really extremely grateful for you,
- 35:10Speaker 1: So thank you so much for hanging around and listening
- 35:13Speaker 1: to me. Yeah. Please let me know, though, what other
- 35:16Speaker 1: videos you want me to see. I'm open to doing
- 35:18Speaker 1: literally whatever. It's my channel, I can do whatever I want.
- 35:20Speaker 1: I'm thirty, I don't care anymore, all right, but thank
- 35:23Speaker 1: you so much for tuning in, and I'll see you
- 35:25Speaker 1: in the next one, all right. Bye.
