re: Why do people always blame the victim when things happen?
Posted by DakIsNoLB on 5/17/24 at 11:27 am
Frick 'em. You don't need these people in your and your wife's lives. Cut them out and cut them off. You owe nothing to family when they act like this, and, perhaps I'm out of line, but the rest of the family should be calling out their heinous act but aren't, so you don't need them either....

[quote]I wasn't much concerned with grades but was an A student at a very large high school my first three years. I had made a single B in biology as a freshman. Moved and as a senior attended a small high school, with a graduating class of only 46. Two otherwise goofy girls had 4.0 averages while t...

[quote]Agreed. That's not really a weekend trip to me. Ours is 400 miles one way.
You almost have to take off Friday or Monday to get all of the stuff done that you didn't because you were traveling (laundry, errands, yard work etc). You can do it and be back at work Monday morning, but it sucks....

It is a good compromise. I'm advising going unless the fallout of not going is worth it to you.
I think it's too much driving in too short a time frame, and the conve...

[quote]I’d go on this trip to keep the peace and then talk about the longer term outlook of taking that many weekend trips to see her family when you get home. That doesn’t sound sustainable to me, at least while maintaining any semblance of an independent social life.
I actually had a similar si...

No, I don't think you're wrong, but, like others have basically said, is this the hill to die on? I'd do it, but then I'd lay out your case about needing down time and having the time to get things done. Trying to do you weekly job and get all your house stuff done between traveling weekends is no f...

[quote]If two able bodied and able minded adults can’t generate enough income to simply feed their family (as in being able to purchase food) then it’s a safe assumption they are lazy as frick.

[quote]It's not easy for anyone to reduce the comfort level they're accustomed to. People aren't willing to raise children with less than they had or to reduce their own accustomed comforts. Nobody wants to take a step back simply for procreation. Like I said earlier, I think it's short-sighted but ...

I get it dude. Living to work isn't the answer and sucks, but humanity has had to work to exist since the dawn of time. 9-to-5ers weren't a thing, but you most definitely were doing work daily. Do what you have to do; then do what you want the rest of the time.

I may fall asleep, but likely won't stay a sleep. The light and/or noise will wake me up for sure.
