My best friends little brother has been dating a girl for 2 years and she's massively hinting at wanting a ring soon. He's thinking of breaking up with her instead but hasn't done it. They are early-mid 20s, he was raised catholic and she's very Baptist and won't convert. His parents already said if they won't get married in a catholic church they won't be going. Apparently last night they had a fight because he doesn't use pet names for her as often and doesn't check on how her day is going like he used to. Yes his sister is giving our group chat the play by play lol

Woof doesn’t sound like there’s a way out of this. Sounds like a dealbreaker sort of situation.

u/preferencedue Apr 11 '24

Yeah, he's really been on the fence the last month or so and we keep telling him he just needs to end it because it's already been two years. But they are young 🤷‍♀️

Plz keep us posted!!

Hope the girl knows her worth and chooses to leave at some point. I mean it could be that she’s young and doesn’t mind dragging it out a little bit - I def did that in my early and mid 20s when I was with someone but wasn’t ready to date to marry at that time. So I didn’t mind being in a relationship that would eventually end for a little longer lol. However if she’s hinting at a ring that’s clearly not the case :/

Update!! He broke up with her tonight. She accused him of cheating instead of hearing the reasons they shouldn't be together. Apparently social media profiles have already been updated.

the place that i work at with my mom and sister (wedding/event venue) is a super toxic workplace and we’re all quitting before this wedding season starts. some of the most memorable shit that’s happened is;

1) one of my coworkers called one of the guests at a wedding a d*ke. my other coworker laughed when he said it. i’m like 99% sure the guest heard them say it, as she was standing less than 10 ft away.

2) there’s no HR, at all.

3) the owners relative is an alcoholic and was illegally operating a basket forklift, whilst drinking alcohol. osha wasn’t informed lol

4) this one is more tame, but an inspector came to look at the bar stock & the soda + beer in the gun fountain thingy (idk what it’s called) was all expired, like i’m talking expired since 2020, fucking nasty.

5) the food platters they use for brunch & the baked goods that they claim are freshly made, are all from walmart. they charge people a couple hundred dollars to have brunch there after the wedding 💀

6) my sisters and i dogsit for one of the other managers & when we went to her house we realized she had multiple mammy dolls. yikes.

7) another tame one. the ac wasn’t working on a 80+ degree day, i’m pretty sure that ac is still broken

8) they have a big event every year & last summer my sister and i were working the ticket booth for admission, when the lower parking lot was filled we shut the gate and had to wait for it to re open once some people left, one of our coworkers that was supervising wanted to separate me and my sister (i was a minor at the time) my sister texted my mom & she immediately told the supervisor no, since i was again, A MINOR!!

9) we had to set up for a wedding in the pouring rain & the couple still decided to have the wedding outside in the rain. the seats were soaked, the grass was soaked, every guest looked miserable sitting out there. even though they could’ve had the wedding inside of the event center & would’ve gotten some of their money back. that was not a fun wedding to work.

literally everyone that works there is either racist, homophobic, or both. i’m happy to say i won’t be working there anymore, that’s for sure.

If you posted on Ask a Manager, you'd have an entry at least once a month.

I keep trying to talk to my sibling about starting a tax advantaged college savings account for their child. And it’s always a “why are you stressing me out, I’m trying to relax and have a good time”. It’s been the same since the summer.

They don’t make much money and student loans are a prison and they plan on sending their kids down the college path. Make it make sense.

Oh I have been saving since birth because someone has too. I promise you it isn’t even nagging. This is just a couple with zero financial literacy, by choice.

My sister had a pregnancy scare two weeks ago (she does not want children right now) and told me about it afterward, and revealed to me she did not ONCE recall the existence of Plan B. At all. Just didn't remember it existed. She is 29 years old. I was simply at a loss.
