Honestly, yeah, I live in Brazil and even here this is illegal; you're paying them (or you're paying your health insurance who, in turn, is paying them) to get this exam; you have every right to get your prescription, it's a medical documentation, and withholding these is completely illegal here and can get you, at minimum, a big fine for it
@@HarleyQuinn-zi5mh interesting to know. I don’t live in the US, so didn’t know that HIPAA was more than just not disclosing your personal info to anyone other than you the patient. Having said that, I’ve never had an optometrist (in any country; three I have lived in so far,) refuse to give me my prescription.
The guy might have called the non emergency line even and the cops arrived quickly because malls typically have cops nearby for mostly traffic infractions (they happen so much around malls).
To be honest if it was an ancestral house in her family I can understand she gave it to her children instead of her husband to keep it that way. Plus if she died in a car crash or something of this nature it could be a situation where she thought her will will be used in two or three decades

"He knows that I'm not serious about anything 99% of the time." Which is why he asked you if you were serious... and then you lied to his face. He confessed his most personal feelings and you used it to make fun of him. What's the question, again?
I give her 1/5. The reason why the damage from this even was so severe is because the guy didn't do himself any favors. He's 20 and genuinely thinks he's found his soulmate. I remember being neive like that too. He put ALL his eggs in one basket, classic rookie mistake. And expected a chronic prankster to seriously pull a full 180 in a week. I would have upgraded to a 2 or 3/5 if she played it up more, confessing her "love" and leaning in for a fake kiss before putting the chocolate against his lips instead of her own. But dude needs some thicker skin. Sounds cold but thrust me, he's not helping with his heartbreak. Approach relationships like an adult, not a 13 year old hopeful
@@shykorustotora I give her 5/5 1 for denying that he took the rejection poorly because he made face with her. She should have believed her friends. Another for deciding to play with his emotions in general, thinking it would be funny. Inconsiderate af. One more for choosing to play this bad prank on VALENTINES DAY. Yet another for that specific prank, during which he asked if she was serious (knowing she was a prankster). If she would have been honest at that point, it'd be one less star. And for the last butthole point, calling his response to her shitty behaviour an "overreaction", regardless of how everyone in their friend group all openly agrees that she was an ass. OP in that story is douchetastic
@Preston Whisler You don't get bonus points for acting like an adult. That's par. Look at this guy, he genuinely put ALL of his eggs in one basket at age 20. That's not HER fault
@@kp-fc4yr "Play with his emotions". Yes she pulled at a delicate thread, but he made it worse for himself. He put every egg he had in her basket... at age 20.. after already being rejected a week prior... If anything the dude comes across as creepy desperate. Strikes me as the "good guy" type
@Shykorus Totora You have literally no information about this guy except what OP, who was trying to make the story sound as favorable as possible for herself, stated. And she made it pretty clear he was a level headed guy who confided his negative emotions about the situation to his other friends so as to not burden her with them (i.e., avoided making her feel culpable). Yeah, he is actually a *good* guy from the sounds of it (fyi, the term you were looking for was "nice" guy). Also, the point being made by @Preston Whisler wasn't that he was being an adult, but rather that OP was the one being a child. Also also, where are you getting this "soulmate" and "every egg in one basket" bullshit? At what point was that even hinted at? He liked OP, clearly, but that does not in any way insinuate he *ONLY* liked OP. It sounds to me like you starred in this exact same manipulative role at some point and are trying desperately to justify your past actions. Guess what? No matter how defensive you get, no matter how you rationalize it, everyone else will think you're the asshole when they find out. See? Other people can make baseless assertions too.
About the optometrist: I’d say that’s withholding medical records or something along those lines and that’s illegal. OP was very much in the right for calling the non-emergency line for the police to handle things.
Medical records cannot be withheld from requesting patients. That is a HIPAA violation and they can in get in trouble for it. That's one of the great things about HIPAA...it protects your right for privacy but also extends basic rights so that you can be involved in your own care.
Yeah, that ophthalmologist is running a scam. I hope the OP reports them to their State Board of Ophthalmologists. I had an optician get mad at me for having to measure my pupillary distance for online glasses. He had to, since my eye doctor asked him to do it, and but he was not happy. I partly get it, as the opticians make commission on sales. But I'm disabled and on Medicaid. It's literally impossible for me to afford progressive lenses from them, so he wasn't going to make any commission from me anyway. 😂 Turns out he got passive-aggressive and wrote my script out wrong. I got this confirmed at a second eye doctor, who I had to see for a special test. I have to tilt my head to the left to see out of my right lens well, lol. Makes me back up the online places even more. It's a pain to self-measure everything, but I'm very happy to do it as they're so affordable. Otherwise, I just don't get to see. Screw their commission.
It's also in violation of Eyeglass Rule, enforced by the Federal Trade Commission. Eyeglass Rule says you have to get a prescription whether or not you ask for one. You're even supposed to give it right after a eye exam. If a optometrist is employed by the Federal, state, or local government, they are exempted from the Eyeglass Rule. If you want proof, it is on the FTC, it is called Eyeglass Rule
As a girl who has had numerous intense crushes on completely unobtainable guys, if I was the victim of the Hershey Kiss prank, I probably would’ve cried myself to sleep. The tiniest things can get your hopes up when you’re in love, and that rejection really sucks.
fr, the hersheys kiss line is only funny when it’s someone who obviously doesn’t like you OR someone who you’re already in a romantic relationship with.
“He didn’t look very upset. He actually took it very well. All of me friends said that he was seriously upset about the rejection but that wasn’t my experience.” Do you expect him to be a Nice Guy and react badly to it? Of course he’s gonna be upset but he’s going to stay chill about it because that’s the normal response. Tf? Whether or not it was the oldest trick in the book prank, he has feelings for you and isn’t going to realize it.
Yeah. NTA all over it. It was issue enough for an officer to arrive, with a call over the non-emergency. Which means that optometry practice is trying to pull some shit by withholding the prescription.
“How could you fall for the Hershey’s Kiss line?” Clearly op needs to know that you shouldn’t emotionally prank someone that they knew was serious about them smh
Robert Loper By early, it could’ve been even less than a week between when the guy confessed and when op pulled the prank. I dunno about the others, but where I’m from, the first 10 days of every month is considered early.
Jennifer Thach I’ve never even heard of the “Hershey’s Kiss Line.” Since when did that even become a thing? And that OP thinks it’s funny and normal? She’s gonna continue to be single with that apathetic and negative attitude.
The thing is that she was toying with his emotions and didn't care. She knew he had feelings for her, she rejected him, and then she proceeded to go ahead with that trick? Especially the way she did it... not like she just walked up to him and said, "Hey, you wanna kiss?" and then handed him a Hershey's kiss. No, when she went the "We need to talk" route, he thought she had changed her mind and he was getting his hopes up, only to be totally let down. It was a cruel, ill-timed prank.
Regarding the "Kiss Prank": I feel like O.P. would only understand why setting someone up with a positive life directional change and then ripping it away is uncool if it happened to them. e.g. "I found your lost cat/dog, they're at my house!" _presents stuffed toy cat/dog after they arrive at the house_ "Hey, a thick envelope from _blank_ university came for you." _hands them a fake acceptance letter from their dream school that ends with "Just Kidding."_
Just the general idea of doing that kind of prank close to the confession and then pulling that on valentines day, is beyond fked up imho. Probably 100% killed his confidence talking with women for a long time.
I don't know.. I get the feeling that even in this situation, she would be angry at the person who pranked her like that, but still believe she was in the right and the most hilarious prankster in her own situation.
imagine bringing up the courage to confess to someone, you get rejected and then they use your confession as a joke thats like the most scummy thing someone could ever do
@Nerdy Jeremy No, N Logan was correct. The Mom passed away three years ago, but the Dad married this new Woman only six months after that. What R/ was mistaken on was the date of her passing, so no the Dad didn't get this other Woman pregnant while still married to OP's Mom. But N Logan's point still stands, that's an incredibly short amount of time to not just get over a spouse's death, but to completely remarry.
Well, your significant other can move on and might abandon your children so it's safer to just give the property directly to your children. At least that's what I'm thinking about that situation
Not sure if it's uncommon in US but here in Europe, it's actually suggested and fairly normal. Divorce and shitty relationships happen and it prevents lots of possible issues.
Everyone knows that the Hershey's Kiss trick is only a backup for the person who is asking the other person out, not the other way around. Also, you played him like fiddle. Hard. As a guy, I would *totally* take that to heart. That's just soul crushing and belittling.
To be honest, before this i never even heard of a Hersey Kiss trick :/ (i had to google Hersey Kiss). Maybe because i am from another country.. anyways that so called prank would hurt so deeply and then even more so if the other person is like that person
She didn’t play him like a fiddle, cause fiddles are hard to play and take time, she played him like a kazoo, cheap and tactic-less. Absolutely horrible and fucked up
Yeah, that prank isn’t meant to be used on someone that you know likes you and you’ve rejected. He clearly took it hard and she still wanted to toy with his emotions.
Yeah, pretty sure he won't forget that for years to come. Playing with people's feelings is more dangerous than you realize. Someone opens up and shares their feelings, they get shut down. That's tough but it happens. But to then take that vulnerability and completely shattering their hopes and self-confidence? That's some traumatizing sh*t right there, chances are he won't ever be friends with her again.
Here's the short version of a long story. I had a guy from my church ask me to go with him to the movies. I was a little taken aback at first because I hadn't really considered dating him before, but after a moment, I agreed - after all you don't know where things might go and I thought he was nice enough - we had known each other for a while and had both been to each others birthday parties as well as the parties of mutual friends. After I had already agreed and we had planned all the details (movie, location, time etc) he said 'By the way, is Rosie (my sister) able to come?" I was stunned for a moment, but then told him 'no, she's busy'. Even after that I stupidly went on the date anyway (first Hunger Games movie). It was civil, but awkward - no chemistry at all, but neither of us was rude to the other. I told my sister about this later and she just scoffed - this guy had asked her on a date only about a week before asking me (unlike me, she was smart enough to tell him 'no'). Yep - that guy had the nerve to try to use me to get the date with the 'better' sister who had already rejected him. My point in sharing this is to demonstrate that when it comes to being an asshole - especially when it comes to the whole topic of dating - you don't simply 'forget about it'. Just as I can directly quote his line of 'by the way, is Rosie able to come?', I'm sure the guy in this story could also quote the moment the girl told him to 'lighten up' after so blatantly toying with his feelings (on Valentine's day no less). BTW, the guy left our church only about a month later, publicly explaining his reason for leaving on Facebook as 'All the decent girls are taken' (and yes - that is another quote).
That wasn't the issue here, remember what the pregnant woman said to her sister, also remember what the father did after that accusation "you are like your mother and a burden to your father", he did nothing told her to pack up and go to the aunt, although he don't have the right or authority to do that he isn't his house. he is a shitty father and the OP is totally right off kick them out.
Well i would say that it would be an asshole move if they are your Mom or dad/some relative and you got no excuse to kick them out... But in that story they had a good reason so its fine
The Valentines prank is 5 out of 5, as she KNEW that he was upset about her rejecting him. And no, he has NOT forgotten what you did, and will never truly forget it.
Yeah what OP did was messed up- The only time I think that prank will ever be okay is between a couple that is close and has a similar sense of humor. Otherwise it might turn out horribly like that did
The wedding story is pretty messed up. If the girlfriend's family doesn't accept the brother, the best thing his family could do is to wholeheartedly accept the girlfriend into their family. That would show her family how judgemental they're being. Instead, OP is acting just as awful as the girlfriend's family.
I have a different perspective, I see it as fighting fire with fire because seems the gf of the brother is not really trying to convince her parents it seems she is just letting in side because he said his brother had been trying to get her parents to like him for a while but just my opinion PS: I could be totally wrong but we need more details on if gf was trying her hardest to get her parents approval
I really thought he would let the girlfriend go to the wedding but just don't invite the parents. Like it's not even the girlfriend's fault that the parents are acting that way, why would he exclude the girlfriend and act like she's also the terrible person too?
As someone who is very insecure, the joke of Valentine's day was way too far, of course the guy wouldn't talk to you during the entire shift, heck she is lucky that the guy would answer her in the same day. The guy dodge a bullet.
Metrack you don’t have to be someone who’s very insecure to know that was insensitive! Also being entirely dismissive of his feelings and making constant excuses for her behaviour all through the post is a sign of someone needing some self awareness and maturity.
@@xcheesyindianx I agree, the fact that she didn't ever once feel the need to apologize shows that she's a self-centered bitch. I'd feel horrible if I had done a prank like that and realized I had played with someone's emotions.
I'm glad that the rest of the friends stood up for Mark in the story from 7:14-10:10. If the op saw the same thing happen except the genders are swapped then I have feeling that she would be mad at the dude instead of saying, "He was just asking."
Also, kinda weird that the receptionist suddenly goes on a tirade just because OP didn't want to buy the glasses from the next store...it's like she/he's getting kickbacks from it or something. Also, for the plane story...why didn't the stewardess asked ANYONE else? Or at least tells OP which seat he'd be moved to?
She was going to "show" him the seat.. And by that, I mean get him up long enough for the siblings to commandeer his seat and then she be like "Well, they're already seated and who am I to separate siblings"
@@thesexysanghieli7818 My thoughts exactly! As soon as she moved her seat would have been occupied. I do think there should have been more explanation though. Some flights are not numbered seats and we don't know the age of these children. Had they been unaware of their right to priority seating (as minors and on the wrong side of the gate for adult instruction) they could have waited too long to get seats together. However, I do find it strange that no-one else was asked to change seats and the unoccupied seat was not filled with someone (one of the children or a displaced adult) which shows the flight was not full. Maybe they upgraded them and the OP's reluctance to move made their flight better as well as hers :D
that happened with my brother as well and u know what the place shut down due lot of complaints of not giving them the prescription and forcing the clients to buy their glasses.
Being one who has to wear glasses to actually see anything more than 4 inches from my face, yeah it is HIGHLY illegal for refusal of giving medical records to the patient of said records and/or Guardian if applicable.
@@gan-erdene.m2732 if you ever see a situation like that please please please file a report with the state board. They take that stuff very seriously and are more then happy to fine the shit out of them
the wedding story made me so sad. as someone who has incredibly conservative parents, i would be devastated if i couldn't go to a partner's sibling's wedding because of my parent's beliefs, not my own. i can't control them and their thoughts and feelings. the op in that story was just way out of line.
He is a butthole,he could have take the high route and accept his brother girlfriend to the wedding but just her and nobody else from her family, that would be fine, but instead of that decide to be like the family of the girlfriend although she had no blame on that. And he still think he is being supportive, yeah right.
@@DarkHeartTheEmo It was a she. She was getting married to another she and didn't want her brother's Indian G/F going to her wedding because of her parents..
So it be nice, let her in as her family kicks the brother to the side non stop, putting both through pain or block her coming to the wedding, which is doing the same thing leaving them by themselves. Yeah, they didn’t think this through n messed up.
Oh if you think the original post was bad just read his comments on the post OP just got worse and worse the more he posted. It was so bad that commenters followed to another post on a whole different subreddit to comment about the post. See: www.reddit.com/user/Cheap-Door/
When her family rejected her partner it was also a rejection of her! Thank goodness no-one in my life has ever rejected me because of my mother's hatred of all that I love! She tried to stop me having anything to do with ANYONE who cared about me. Literally anyone!
The story with the wedding and the girlfriend was so messed up The girlfriend can’t control how her family sees her boyfriend and she clearly loves him? Pushing her out of their family because the parents to that to the boyfriend is gonna make the situation worse
@@someonenewnow212 And that does not mean that OP should exclude _the girlfriend_ for things _her parents_ do. The sins of the parents do not pass onto the child.
@@MartialArtswithLucyLu so dumb. so you'd go just as low as the family that doesn't accept your brother? i bet the gf really tried to get the parents to like him. you're the type of person i really don't like.
@@gloriacoodood2287 I love how you think I'm dumb when I'm probably more nicer than you are here! If I was the girlfriend I would make sure that my family respects no matter what and if they don't I will give the two options either respect the boyfriend or have me cut contact with all of you here! As for the parents if they really loved their daughter they would want to be happy and accept her relationship no matter what here! I understand where he's coming I stand by what I said he did the right thing here!
hfandgkrsyjsvmfjjsfjitsjdgmfuzhvn according to OP “this is not punishing the Indian gf. This is to teach her a lesson” she believes that if the gf doesn’t disown her family, then she is toxic. She says that she’s doing the best for her brother. What a joke. This is what I read from the original reddit post and those are the words OP used
He could've said like "I think you should tell your family that you are being invited to your bf's wedding and that they won't even give your bf a chance and that it isn't fair" not"you're banned to come to anything related to our family until your parents change" 2 horrible things don't make anything good
Also, if the gf parents are against the relationship inviting the brother's gf to the family activities would be a very nice way to support the relationship
magnetothewhite the OP is a girl btw. She believes that she knows best for her little brother and feels that the “Indian gf” (she kept repeating that the gf was Indian) is toxic if she doesn’t disown her family.
We are missing some information on how the GF is acting towards her family. She may be enabling her family's actions which is what's prompting the response in hopes of getting her to grow a backbone.
For the Valentine’s Day prank.....holy shit man, that’s cold. There’s a difference between pranks and toying with someone’s emotions and feelings for you for your amusement. You probably broke that guy for what you thought was a harmless prank. I feel for the guy
@@Georgesingsss For me the roles where switched and I didn't go cry about it like he did. He should learn how to get over it because if a grown ass man can't get over a prank like that when something very similar happened to me in middle school and I got over it then there is clearly something wrong.
@@Someone-kf8xe you just sound like an asshole not everyone reacts to things the same way. Also obviously it was something important to him and he got toyed with by someone he thought was a friend who couldn't even apologize. He probably did get over it but doesn't want to be friends with someone who can't even apologize.
That story with the “harmless” prank is honestly a bit messed up. He confessed to having a crush on OP, she rejects him, he didn’t take it well, and OP toys with his emotions with that heartless prank.....smh
@@warumusic1714 Yeah same, especially because that kind of happen to me, so is more relatable, the prank was overall bad, if it was any other day maybe the thing wouldn't be that hard, but she did it at Valentine day, so she is a completly butthole/asshole.
She knew he had a crush on her, she pretended to give them a chance and she's surprised that he didn't get the "joke". Like... wtf, girl?! That guy can feel free to say "the trash took itself out".
I was kinda just about to point that out. Even without her reaction she is definitely, 100% an asshole. At best she rubbed salt into his wounds, at worst she gave him hope only to cut him back down in an instant. You don't do that sort of thing to a stranger, let alone to a "friend". Then she responds to it by trying to make light of what she did and how she hurt his feelings through it and responds to the whole thing with "why is everyone mad~ at me~? It was only a little, itty~ bitty~ prank..." Have to wonder why the guy likes her in the first place when she somehow thinks things like that are okay and how she managed to make friends in the first place.
The valentines day one was definitely the butthole. You should never play with someone's genuine feeling. That sort of thing can be emotionally traumatic.
Last story: notice how the new wife said "You're just like your mom", which means she was definitely around while the mom was still alive. Plus re-marrying 6 months after the mom's passing away is just sketchy af.
Clarify: The mom dies 3yrs ago, the dad remarried 6 months after her death. After 3yrs they gor pregnant with twins. He might have been cheating on her but he didnt have the baby while she was alive.
Getting married that quickly usually means they did not care that much for their spouse. Most people think just meeting someone and getting married after 6 months is moving way to fast if they were single when they met. Makes you wonder how long after her mom died he started looking for someone new and if he actually mourned her mom at all.this hits close to home for me when my mom died my stepdad (who had been our dad for 11 years and the only dad we knew since our dad died when I was 4 sister 2 and brother 6 and they got married 2 years later. We all called him dad and my parents were already getting separated when he died) got remarried 10 months later and started dating her within a month of my mom death. We knew then that he didn't really love her and just easily replaced her.
Yeah what the flip is her problem? Especially after he ADMITTED he had a crush on her. And she clearly says no. But then plays with his feelings soon after he admitted it. Like...how is that an ok prank to do? It isn't. Sorry. 5/5. Don't play with people's feelings.
I think I already responded myself separately, but I agree. This is one of the worst asshole stories rslash has covered. It honestly seems like she's a sociopath to me and in her case I'd be all for sterilising her. She can't be allowed to raise kids, she has no compass.
@@familyguysofunny1933 yes it does. It may not always be on the surface but it does tend to factor into your love life thereafter even if you don't consciously think about it. My opinion is based on experience in messed up crushes and romances early on.
At least it likely cured him of his crush, seeing her true colors. I highly doubt he would still have feelings for her after that. I managed to instantly lose my crush on a couple of guys in high school when I saw them do or heard them say something utterly despicable. Of course, I didn’t know either very well, so it wasn’t anything more than a crush; what he felt for OP was probably much stronger and maybe not as easily discarded.
"He hasn't spoken to me since but I'm pretty sure he's forgotten all about it". OK I did some hurtful things when I was young but I don't think I was ever quite that lacking in self-awareness.
Yeah that line ticked me off too. Something like this never happened to me, yet I am insecure about myself. I can't even imagine how that guy must have felt. The incredible happiness immediately turn into depression, the feeling of being betrayed... just thinking about that makes me feel so.... off. This just magnified my trust issues.
The fact that the “joke” is used as a backup if you ask someone for a kiss and they say no and you give them the chocolate. She used it in reverse and that’s the worst part
@@It-is-me...Melsie maybe she is a he and the girl was the victim in this and the one writing is the guy trying to make her seem like the bad guy ever think of that
Okay, as I was that person that people often played that Valentines Day "joke" on when I was younger, it isn't harmless AT ALL. It's a terrible asshole move that not only takes something that someone had to gain the courage to bring up, in the first place, but smashes it into the ground when the other person basically makes fun of your feelings. It's very hurtful, and to this day, I still have problems believing people when they give me any sort of complement in a romantic way because of THAT EXACT BS that I was tormented with. It's not okay. Ever. A joke is only funny if it doesn't hurt someone else in the process. That's the difference between light-hearted and mean that a lot of people don't seem to understand.
I was worried there wouldve been a sadder ending that he hurt himself because of it. That thought is just so crushing because of these "jokes". If I had it happen to me and I still look back and can feel sad then imagine others who only say they are fine. 😔
@Mercedes follett I remember in middle school and early highschool some boys during lunch would say to me "HE LIKES YOU!"point at some random guy at the table and they'd just laugh.
miss Kaiya, very well said and I completely agree! It is NEVER ok to make fun of someone's feelings PERIOD! I also would like to add that the so called "weird kids" in my experience (from kindergarten to high school) were always the kids who grew up to actually make something of themselves & also the most kind loyal & friends. I'm sorry you had to go through that! You are a very pretty girl & "weird" is just derogatory word for original in my opinion. Good one you for being your own person! Please always be you because you are clearly one of a kind 💖
"Everybody knows that it's the oldest and lamest trick in the book" No? I only know it as a save (not a joke) if you asked someone "do you want to kiss" and they respond something along the lines of 'wtf' and you can respond with "do you want a kiss" and pull out a Hershey's kiss (so just incase they don't want to kiss or you chicken out). Also his response should have told you he clearly didn't know the joke and it would therefor be cruel and definitely not harmless.
yeah, like the old "do you want a spoon" then if they don't, you pull out a spoon to save face, turn it into a joke. But when you do that, you WANT them to say yes so you can get some spooning action
Doesn't even matter if he knew the joke or not, since she didn't just ask him "do you want a kiss", but set it up with explicitely saying that she thought about how he confessed his crush to her and wanted to talk to him about it (and on Valentine's day!) - there is really no way of blaming him for getting lead on. Getting the guy's hopes up and then crushing them for a cheap laugh is seriously hurtful and definitely not a prank you should ever pull on a friend.
@@drstryker2433 Rslash got the timeline a little off, but over all, he was correct in his verdict. The "father" calls his daughter a "cruel brat" for kicking him and his leeching, manipulative, abusive wife out of her house. Meanwhile, the "father" replaces his deceased wife immediately, lets the replacement move into his daughter's home and take over, walks over the memory of her deceased mother and then proceeds to KICK HIS OWN KID out of her own house. If not supporting to heartless gold diggers is "cruel", then he is the most cruel, heartless, spineless and vile inhuman monster that has ever slithered upon this globe, by "father's" own yard stick. Just the fact that he is choosing anyone over his children, is disgusting, and I wish nothing but the worst for him and his fellow gold digging spouse. Clearly there was a reason their mother chose to leave everything to her daughters and nothing to her spouse. Seems to me she saw a lot of this coming before she passed. (I mean him picking a new piece of ass over his own children, and being willing to through his minor child out on the street in order to keep his piece of ass happy. Or selling it all and taking off with said new piece of ass. Either way, he's a piece of shit and I hope his daughters have an amazing life and never have to see him or the replacement ever again)
@@Original_Tenshi_Chan I have a feeling that the new wife has something to do with OP's mother's death. Maybe the mother didn't die of natural causes or something, as they never specified how she died. Maybe the new wife hated her, especially how she insulted the deceased lady by removing her pictures around the house and while arguing with the daughter. Probably was happy that the mother died, especially since the dad married her six months after the mom died and was pregnant for SEVEN months, meaning the dad was most likely cheating while the mom was still alive. I don't know, just speculating 😂
Thought someone was here and posted this. The Step Mom has no grounds or right to really say if the mom was a burden or not. Further, neither the dad nor step mom had the right to kick the 16 y.o. out, first of all, the dad is suppose to be responsible and care for his daughter, secondly, it is not their house, so they don't get to have a say as to who lives there or doesn't; if they don't like it, they can leave, and thirdly, 2 grown adults have a better chance of dealing with things and rebounding than a 16 y.o., sure they sent her to her aunt, but that is making her a burden to someone else and is very likely to have to force her to do a lot to fend for herself, which will mess up her future.
Breaking news: father called his eldest child cruel after kicking his underaged daughter from the house he lived in rent free by leeching off of the child he insulted who owned the house he got kicked out of as result of allowing his pregnant girlfriend to abuse his daughter
And he allowed his new girlfriend to blatantly disrespect his deceased wife by taking photos that are obviously important to OP and the sister off the walls. It’s clear what his priorities really are.
With the optometrist story his prescription was a medical record and they were withholding that which (as you said) they can’t do so not a butthole. At least he called the non emergency line. Love your vids. 😄
As someone who works in an optometrist, I can confirm the the practice was totally in the wrong. You have a legal right to your prescription and they *have* to give it to you if you request it, it doesn’t matter what else they want you to do. In the end, the most they can do is advise you and refer you onward if needed, but they would still have to give up the prescription no matter what. Op did the right thing, that practice smells of sus
For the last story: OP's mom died three years ago, and their dad moved on six months after their mom's death. He's been with the stepmom for two and a half years
The fact that the father moved on so fast makes me wonder if step-mom was the side piece that just got "lucky". And how did she NOT know that it wasn't his house? Didn't OP or her sister tell her when she couldn't do something like the photos? Or the bills?
The glasses doctor was DEFINITELY breaking the law in trying to not give them their glasses prescription (in the US at least, probably elsewhere to). This USED to be legal decades ago, but it no longer is. In the last decade or two this protection was extended to contact lenses as well.
The optometrist, who is also known as an "optician", is not a doctor, but a graduate in Optics and Optometry. Ophthalmologists are the doctors who made the specialty that studies eye diseases and their treatment.
@@e.noeliahurtado7121 honestly pretty unimportant as far as normal people are concerned, as long as he is allowed to put a "diagnosis" like he can his clients should have complete access to their own records (medical or otherwise).
agreed, "The Federal Trade Commission enforces the Eyeglass Rule. It requires eye doctors - ophthalmologists and optometrists - to give patients a copy of their prescription - whether they ask for it or not. It’s the law." however "The Eyeglass Rule does not apply to ophthalmologists or optometrists employed by any Federal, State or local government entity."
@@EdenRichardson25 i agree in the fact that if it doesn’t hurt someone it’s not technically a joke. Problem is, there’s a very thin line between a joke being funny or hurtful, and she crossed it by far.
I actually just went through the same thing with a opthamologist in my local town. By HIPAA law, in the United States of America, you can get copies of your own Medical Records. I had to invoke my right to HIPAA for them to mail me my prescription. I know the prescription was out of date, and I will be getting a new prescription soon. I just like to keep a copy for my own medical records at home.
9:15 as a moderately overweight person myself, I can say that usually no matter how much we play it off and no matter how light hearted the jokes are, they always hurt. And usually when we say it’s fine or defend the attacker, we’re just trying to draw attention away from the fact that we are overweight. We don’t like that we are fat, and it is genuinely hard to make a change when you are so far gone. And these jokes hurt even more when you are trying to turn yourself around. So while I acknowledge they had no foul intent, I can say that you should never joke around about someone’s weight. And even if they are fine with fat jokes, just don’t do it anyway.
I agree on the fat jokes thing, I think calling her an asshole for the question was a bit much because for me personally, I'd rather be asked about "what happened" than to be teased about the result. And if they know "what happened" usually the jokes stop and they are more compasionate. It wasn't an fully asshole thing to do if you ask me. To me to be an asshole it has to be something very harmful to another person and also somewhat delibrate, otherwise it's ignorance and that's hard to fault considering that means they literally don't know better.
@@Amayagma I partially agree with you. The friend was right, op had no tact, there is a difference between asking "what happened" in a private setting, and "how did you get so far" in front of friends. There may not have been ill will on behalf of op, but asking how you became fat, is really just not appropriate.
Even though this is an video. I agree with ALRB. asking a question isn’t harmful but joking about someone weights. For one bullying someone for something they is not ok and two Sense it was question and a common question at that. Easily a fixable issue by answering the question with I have a medical problems or not comfortable on answering it and Rslash maybe rephrase that answer you get 1 out of 5 but holes on this one Op 3-5 but holes and the rest of the people in this story 4-5 but holes they didn’t even have the audacity to stand up for the guy until he asked a question about it. Advice if you stand by and done nothing to stop the bullying then your no better than then the bullies themselves. Remember it well
Its not like she/he even knew what happened, She was just curious. Did you know that the human brain is constantly trying to learn something? Anything possible? It does this until the day it dies.
The one where the guy was asked "What happened? Why'd you get fat?" was more about being tactless and forgetting to keep out of other peoples business, but what really got my jaw-to-the-floor WTF was the Kiss story - you do NOT prank someone who has already confessed they have a crush on you like that! That whole thing felt _malicious_, done totally on purpose to hurt.
@@thequiccvelociraptor2994 okay, think of it like this. You confess to someone that you want to be with them. They reject you. Then a week later, they lead you on, saying that they thought about what you said. Then BOOM, they ask if you want a kiss and pull that bull. That's the perfect way to hurt anyone pretty badly and is far from a "harmless prank."
The person who broke their friend's heart on Valentines Day gets 5 out of 5 Buttholes. It wasn't a joke to their friend who had confessed his feelings twice. That was just plain cruel and they feel zero remorse.
"My brother's girlfriend's parents are HORRIBLE, so I'll be just like them!" jeez nice, stoop down to their level huh. An eye for an eye and the world goes blind. If anything, do the exact opposite, welcome her with open arms, show her family what it means to support someone.
Henri Dark-Fleury what are you talking about? What does this Pearson’s parents or background have anything to do with what was said? This is EXACTLY what they should do. They should invite the girlfriend. Considering her background just the fact that she’s dating OP’s brother means that she’s standing up to her parents. She can only do so much. Why should she have to pay for what her parents do? If anything what OP is doing is ostracizing her from both families making her parents disapprove even more and her life harder. This isn’t a get even type of thing. This is a making it worse for everyone with what OP is doing.
Henri Dark-Fleury also I found the Reddit post. The OP doesn’t care how the gf feels and is only controlling her brother’s life bed cause she feels that she knows best for her brother and is “keeping toxic people out of her life”
Exactly...if you care for your brother, you care for what HE likes. Welcome her to the family and show her a better one....but reading @@terra_the_nightingale135 comment, I would say to her brother to not show up and just go on a trip that day. And I also wonder if her attitude has influenced the parents attitude (as in, I'm sure it's not the 1st clash between the families).
Exactly. If there are 2 parents, A and B, and A kills B's child, does A's child deserve to die? All OP is doing in that scenario is breeding more hate between the familiy, he's making the girlfriend want to be out of the family, which is what her parents are doing.
Do i agree with how they are handling it, not really. But I can't lie and say I don't see what they're trying to do. I'm not entirely sure but I'm assuming the family has seen how painful it is for him to be rejected by the family of the woman he loves, I think maybe their thought is if her parents see her experience that same pain then they'll think twice about their racism. Maybe it works maybe it doesn't.
I just have to say I would turn this into A**hole tax because I would say one you can never say anything like that to my sister or y'all will have to leave and 2 y'all will have to pay rent from now on.
The one with the Indian girlfriend is so bad. I was saying to myself, "you wanna punish the girlfriend, the one who is accepting of your brother and possibly O.P, for the intolerance of her parents/family?" Ummm ok... That's messed up.
OP : doesn't like family excluding the brother Also OP : Excludes brother's girlfriend to get back at girlfriend's family... That won't be attending anyways... That gives more ammunition to the family to exclude your brother... Enjoy the paste sammich for lunch
I had one local eyeglass place who had an "independent" optometrist doing the exams. One major thing you need buying glasses online is your pupilary distance, PD, the doctor refused to measure mine saying the store staff would do it (his prescription pad had a specific line for the PD) the staff finding out I wasn't buying glasses from them refused to measure my PD for me. I complained to corporate they arranged for a whole new exam. I went in. Doctor was annoyed with me for complaining. Measures my PD. I get home and compare my two, week apart exam results. They're NOTHING alike! I didn't know which one was accurate, probably the 1st one. Contacted corporate, seriously ready to file an AMA for malpractice. A bad prescription could ruin my eyes or cause me to have an accident. They arrange a 2nd doctor to do a THIRD eye exam. This one was closer to the 1st but the PD was quite different. Corporate also arranged a free pair of glasses, any options, any frames to compensate me for the bullshit.My 1st exam was $40 (refunded as well) two subsequent exams $80, glasses in designer frames (they broke during fitting!) with Transitions XtraActive $680. All because a doctor refused to do his job. I'd have happily ordered online from Zenni their stuff ships slow but is top notch and super affordable. But the doc and the store wanted to play games. They lost.
Good. I'd still file a complaint against the doctor, because he shouldn't have a license, let alone be working for and ruining someone else's business.
@@littilwood I honestly should have especially after the 2nd deliberate sabotaged prescription but I had spent hours on the phone and made so many trips across town. I just wanted it over.

Her haircut, her tone, and her primal urge to speak to the manager are, in my expert opinion, all indicative of being a karen."
I can’t believe some people actually think when they hurt someone else, they can defend themselves with “but we always used to do that” “They never had a problem before” crap
Even if you do pranks regularly you should know it is something different he is serious about her and she hurt his confidence so yeah she is the asshole
@@1985toyotacamry Exactly, especially since he specifically asked "are you being serious?" and she answered Yes, negating her excuse of "he knew I wasn't serious".
@@sonamy1231000 dont know how you got that people can be friends then their feelings changed. I was friends with two of my exes one I developed feelings for and the other she developed feelings for me. It happens. I never wanted to sleep with any of them but as we.got closer over 6 or 7 years in both cases and things change.
The problem with the prank one is that she mentioned his confession first. If she just said “do you want a kiss” and gave him the Hershey’s kiss it wouldn’t have been nearly as damaging.
The "kiss prank" story was like something from a high school movie with the girl as the bully. The only thing missing was a camera so she could laugh at it later. Just no empathy there. He probably joked around with her because he liked her in the first place.
"Pretty sure he forgot about that by right now" Really dude I swear to god if something like this happens to me I will never forgive you for what you did and forgive myself for falling in love with you
If he wanted to be supportive of his brother, he would've invited his girlfriend on every family event and backup his brother from his parents so that someday it would change the girls parents minds.. That's how it works.. I think 🤔
“Let me get this straight, your mom died 6 months ago and your dad’s wife is 7 months pregnant?” No, their mom died 3-ish years ago, which was mentioned pretty early on in the story. Their dad married his new wife 6 months after their mom died, and then their sister had the party 3-ish years later.
For the first story with the honeymoon: To be blunt, wanna know what you do? Have the single loudest passionate hugging ever and make sure its 2 AM and it wakes them TF up. Its YOUR honeymoon. Not theirs.
She was so sure he didn't mind her joking about it even though she had been told to knock it off. I'm sure he did mind but was too good natured to confront her. She should have been able to read her surrounding better. Or, of she was curious, at least read the signs and just ask someone close to him in private.
I feel so sorry about the overweight dude. He's obviously so insecure and awkward about his weight while OP ist just super oblivious to his feelings. He defended OP to make it less awkward and the little jokes probably get to him as well.
I don't think he necessarily feels insecure. If he had some accident that prevents him from training, it's sad, but not the end of the world. He moved on, he gained some weight, but his friends stayed with him. OP is Major A-hole for constantly riding him, even if it's just for fun. So what, that he's not as fit, as the rest of the group? Is it so important to be the same as others? And how can you ask "what happened?" when someone gained weight? It's NOT THAT BIG DEAL!
I think this is a clear case of it really depending where you're from (country, culture, environment etc), i know alot of ppl (probably including myself) who would ask the same exact question then and there, just out of pure intrest for the person and the story.
@@Jasper_S Yeah couldn't agree more. Sure the jokes might be a tad out of touch if the guy isn't one to make fun of it himself but asking what happened to someone somewhat close to you when you learn they had big life changes is pretty normal, though it might be inconsiderate to do it in a group discussion as the root of this kind of change can be pretty personnal. If he doesn't want to talk about it he can just answer that "nothing happened" or that he doesn't want to talk about it but it's not others business to intervene and try shame someone who asked a question seemingly out of real interest and care and not just out of malice. We don't all know each other's lives and what is or isn't a sensitive topic.
I was pranked by a crush I confessed my feelings to - worse than the 'kiss prank' but one thing I learnt: Pranks that don't cause physical harm, aren't harmless.
Honestly, that’s what I would think and want to ask. I’m just curious... but I also am somewhat on the autistic spectrum so, maybe that’s why I have no tact. 😅
@@ariaborealis2701 I’m with you on that! As a friend I’d be interested to know what happened to cause the transformation. I’m not trying to be rude or anything. I am also on the spectrum
@@ariaborealis2701 neurotypicals value emotions over facts (I’m sure you already know this). So asking why someone is fat to them means “How lazy are you?” “Why do you look so bad?” etc. That’s because fat isn’t an objective term to a lot of people. They can’t accept circumstances as they are so the word has a negative connotation. If you ever find yourself in a situation like OP, say, “You look so different. Why the change?” Or something like that. The focus isn’t on the weight but on the change. Essentially the same meaning but a huge difference to neurotypicals.
for being a fat kid myself i feel its okay to do that as long as if its your friend and you know they are okay with it and if they specifically say you have crossed a line apologize
There are often medical reasons behind sudden weight gain. E.g. an eating disorder, or simply medication that causes someone to gain weight. It's not your business to enquire about friends medical information (like weight). The person should have realized they were crossing a line when the other friends told them not to make jokes. They could know that is was hurting the guy and he was just covering up that hurt so he didn't get called a "snowflake" as people like this who belittle others tend to respond if the other tells them they hurt their feelings.
yeah, for the prescription, it is absolutely ilegal to refuse to provide a custoimer their prescription. They do not have to give the Pupilary distance, but the remainder, you have a right to your medical information - just like if you asked any doctor for a copy of your files with them. it's YOUR information.
As someone who has had to wear glasses since 3 years old, the Optometrist story frustrates me to no end. For one, it's literally illegal to withhold medical information from a patient, and for another, ordering glasses online isn't a scam! In some cases, they're the only glasses out there that are vaguely affordable, especially if you're like me an have an expensive prescription type. I sincerely hope that the receptionist herself was the only PoS at the Optometrist and not representative of the entire location's shady ass business
Found this on Google about prescription 'a for eyeglasses "The Rule gives you the right to get your prescription from your eye doctor - whether you ask for it or not - at no extra charge. The doctor must give you your prescription for glasses at the end of your eye exam. The doctor can’t require you to pay an extra fee, buy eyeglasses or contact lenses, or sign a waiver or form in exchange for your prescription." Basically the company cannot do that
Ah yes the good old “if you’re family can’t accept my brother, then I don’t accept you” response. Such a natural and non-childish reaction to have... (sarcasm if it’s not obvious)
They want the girl to disown her family for being toxic because she associates with them at all. Even though it's painful enough fir her as it is trying to get him to be accepted his family should have been a break. Too bad they suffer from the same illness or worse.
Squirrel exactly. I feel for her. My husband’s family didn’t like me at first and I could tell how hard it was for him to be caught in the middle. I would never have made him choose between us and I would have been very upset with my family if they’d tried to ostracize him because of how his parents/family acted.
The Mark story makes me so mad she can't see how that is a butthole move. A lot of time when men say it's fine or shrug off comments its really not fine and hurts them. I really feel for Mark.
Ruffenღ Exactly. I’m kinda in Marks position. I gained wait after something happened and my depression worsened. I’ve gained a lot of weight. I get really self conscious but don’t say anything when people point it out. It’s humiliating.
@Gabrielle Boilard TBH as an Autistic person, if people tell me they’re fine but actually aren’t and think lesser of me for it, it’s kind of their fault. Granted, I don’t know if OP is Autistic, but if they were their reaction would be understandable.
@Gabrielle Boilard it seems that i'm the only one here that disagrees with everyone on the Mark issue. Is it wrong for you to see an earlier pic of a friend and see how different they look from how you have known them to ask what happened inbetween? Everyone else knows the story and understand what's happened or why.... Op in that story didn't... so they asked and were put on the cross for it. that's like going to a friends house, sitting in the living room and everyone giving you a death glare because you didn't take off your shoes when no one told you that the floors were handed down from a loved dead uncle To everyone else that knows what happened... it can look like a-hole move... but I haven't seen anyone here put themselves in the shoes of OP to get both sides. Asking what happened is a pretty hard and blunt way to ask " you looked so different back then..... was there something that happened inbetween then and the guy I know now?" That question might of lead to OP finding out what happened and everyone maybe not being assholes to OP.... but when you see an old Pic of a good friend that is night and day from who you have always knew them as.... the most direct way to find out is to ask " What happened?" as it's a bit of a shock to you to see the change and it's only natural to want to know the cause From what I am getting... OP wasn't looking to play the part of an asshole and just wanting to the chain of events that everyone else but them knew. You can't be mad and punish someone for braking a rule in a game that they didn't even know they were a part of
@@OnyxDStone I fully agree, it is also important that Mark defended her saying it was okay, now we can of course always try and read everything into his statement between here and the sun, but reality is all we have to go by is his words, we have no idea if he was nervous, had tears in his eyes, was laughing about it, or completely neutral. Furthermore, he kept on defending her even after his friends attacked her for it, so it sounds to me that his friends very much so overreacted in trying to protect him from something that while maybe unpleasant for him, wasn't so bad as to him not defending her over it. (but again we have no idea what he felt or thought at the time, all we know is she asked why her friend had changed so much after seeing an old picture of him and everyone getting really angry at her for it without her knowing why)
The Valentine's one made me fuming. I've had to reject friends before and I always feel like an awful person for it (thank the lord that they understood and we've stayed friends), and the fact that OP would use his romantic feelings to pull a prank on him on Valentine's day, which is the day people usually do romantic crap, is messed up and hurtful.
S1: NTA. OP’s in-laws are TTA for invading their privacy. It sounds like they are desperate to keep control over OP’s husband. S2: NTA. The stewardess was unprofessional and the old dude was a hypocrite. S3: NTA. They were definitely running a scam. S4: TTA. That was super rude and OP took it too far. S5: TTA. That was insensitive. And if she just left well enough alone, this shit storm wouldn’t have happened. S6: TTA. Everyone is terrible. OP shouldn’t exclude his brother’s girlfriend just because of her shitty parents. And the relatives on all sides are no better. S7: NTA. OP’s parents are TTA and should be ashamed of themselves for being selfish assholes. The stepmom is super insecure about any mention of OP’s mom like she is trying to compete with a dead woman. And the dad is a spineless bastard who never cared about his family.
10:10 there are plenty of reasons why Mark was "out of shape" the traumatizing incident for one, which might have brought him to depression, and when you're depressed you lack the motivation to do anything, like going to the gym to keep his "amazing bone structure"
I'm still not seeing what she did wrong. It seems to me that she was just interested why he looked so different. The friends acted like she was magically supposed to know he had a traumatic experience
@@lagle8 Just my thoughts. She was out of line for poking fun at his weight before, but when it was really only in a lighthearted manner, that can be forgiven. Asking what happened to him though, isn't out of line. The way she told the story it seems she asked out of genuine interest and care for him. You know, you need to know about the people you call friends and their history and sometimes the only way to accomplish that is to ask them. Nothing good can come from silencing the problem. At least now that she knows he has another friend who is mindful of his situation and can give him support. Yes, it's not a pleasant topic to bring up, but among friends it should be possible to talk about these things, otherwise it's not a friendship.
tOwOxic The way the story was written, I could see op’s genuine interest, care and curiosity, and it’s true that by being friends, it is of the importance to know at least something about them. However, the way op worded her question was completely tactless. No one’s not gonna feel humiliated when a person just flat out ask them “Oh my, how’d you get so fat?” in front of their friend’s in a public place. And then the lack of self awareness and the ability to read the people around her just made op seem like a terrible person.
@@lagle8 also the big reason is the fact the she doubles down without remorse, if someone feels offended by what you did don't say "there being too sensitive" that just makes you look like, well a butthole. Even if the offendee doesn't feel hurt your actions affect those around you and what they think of you, this goes back the the single best advice my father gave me "time and place, know your audience, and perception is reality" that last one fits this post generously, if you say something offensive and you don't thinks it's offensive, AND there are 4 or 5 who disagrees with you don't be beside yourself and simply apologize.
With the optometrist I believe what they were trying to do was flat out illegal. A prescription, to the best of my knowledge can be used any place I can fill it properly
not necessarily, it really depends on the terms of service. If the customer agrees to get checked out and use the prescription in a particular way, than that is a legitimate contract. The question is: did the person who needed the glasses read the contract or was at least informed before the checkup about the ToS.
I agree with you- I think it’s a law in most states that citizens have access to their medical records, which eye exams fall under since they not only check for medical conditions of the eye and optic nerve, but are also referred to when getting your driver’s license if you have especially poor vision.
The optometrist charging for a test that is a prescription for glasses cant be use elsewhere sounds really sketchy. I dont know the rules but I would definetly report it to whoever optometrist use for certification and see if its illegal and what legal actions to take but I'm positively sure they're unable to withhold that type of medical information. They could deny giving you medical info but they need to justify it why.
pruna blue pepper as someone who has had glasses since she was eight: no. They can’t withhold that. It is medical information and you are entitled to it legally. Now could he have handled it better? Yes. The way my family handles this if we want to shop around, we agree to look at the selection available and then just not find anything we like. Then ask for the prescription and look other places. So we have given them an opportunity, and just found it didn’t work out. But in no way were they allowed to withhold that. Straight up, that is a diagnosis of what your vision is and what is required to correct it. It would be like your doctor finding something wrong and then refusing to tell you what was wrong then when you asked for at least the medication he’s prescribing, him then saying “I can only give that is you go to x pharmacy.” Not permissible. You are allowed to know what is wrong with your eyes, to what extent, and how to correct it. And “terms of service” no. Any reputable doctor would not do this. Where have you been going that you have signed some bs like that? I’ve had 3 eye doctors since I was old enough to sign my own papers. Never once has that been anywhere in my forms.
@@AppleStrawberryLove yeah the terms of service to state something about denying the prescription and only be used there definetly sounds illegal. Unethical for sure but illegal.
“So, you’re trying to get my brother accepted by your family and it’s not working. I’m mad that it’s not working. So, to show my support I’m going to do THE EXACT SAME THING”
Regarding the wedding story: That is the stupidest ultimatum I've heard of in recent memory. The Indian girlfriend's parents clearly don't care about the brother's family, as it seems they just ignore his existence entirely when they can. They don't care if the white-boy's family excludes their daughter from stuff, in fact they probably want it as it'll help their side of the argument about how the girlfriend shouldn't date the brother. How is excluding her going to make her family any less likely to exclude the brother? OP is extremely arrogant in how much sway he thinks his family has over her family, and the only thing to come out of it is this poor woman's feelings are hurt for no reason than both families in this argument are apparently full of hateful idiots. Two wrongs don't make a right, you don't stop discrimination with more discrimination.
Militaristic Wombat OP actually said that if the gf doesn’t disown her family, then she’s toxic. She said that she’s “not punishing the Indian gf. Just teaching her a lesson” and thinks that she knows what’s best for her brother by taking the gf out of the picture. Edit:: people think this is me defending her. It is not. I’m clarifying why OP is a delusional piece of shit. I looked through the Reddit post, and OP is terrible. Was just giving more info.
Terra_the _Nightingale That is stupid and still doesn’t justify OP’s decision in excluding her from the family. It’s not her fault that her family is racist and trash. She’s already been having a tough time with her own family. She doesn’t need another family making her life more difficult.
Nerdy Jeremy oh no I wasn’t trying to answer any question, I was just giving more info on the reddit post since I managed to look through it and see how deep OP’s delusion goes
He confessed his crush to you, its the most important part of his life, he was at his most vulnerable stage. whatever you say will stay with him for the rest of his life. Just because you pranked each other back then that doesnt mean that you can play with someone who is serious with his feelings especially on valentines day whwre people express their love. Never forget that pranks has its own limitations.
She is the trashiest type of person you could fall for. Notice how through out her story, she kept making excuses, but all of them are based on her own assumption, made in favor of herself without any logic behind the assumption. The type of woman that always have an excuse for her shitty behaviour.
Tbh, she should've just done a solid rejection and asked to remain friends. Then if anything else happens after that, it would end up being his fault because he couldn't handle rejection
The wedding story is basically OP punishing his brother's gf for her family not accepting her bf. Like wtf, find a way to punish the parents if you want, but punishing your brother's gf for something she can't control isn't right
I love the third story, he had no reason to give up his seat, especially if he was tired and needed that extra space since he was tall, true the other guy should have given up his seat if he was gonna be hypocritical to the guy about it, and stewardess should have been professional about asking him, honestly I don’t get why she didn’t ask the other guy when he said no
They always searching for "nice looking ppl", maybe not air plane but bus, i was with my friend, we were chatting and then, Polish Karen (Grażyna) asked me and my friend with this "nice" voice, "Can you two give me this seats ? My child can't stand for one station and I am really tired.." this kid was a teenager, a freaking teenager... I was 18 at that moment and my friend was looking younger than that kid... I told her that I and my friend were also tired and over there are free seats. She started screaming at me, I was really shocked, this bus was almost half empty, why did she wanted ours seats ? .. Some ppl are just brainless..
@@scarlett2x Not all flights have numbered seats to book. It sounds to me like the stewards messed up by not making sure the unsupervised minors were onboard during priority seating and were trying to fix their oversight without having to issue upgrades to 2 unsupervised kids!
Re: the "y u so fat" woman and the "vday" woman, How are people so oblivious to how their actions affect the people around them? And about the brother-in-law, ever heard of being the bigger man? Be supportive of your brother and his girlfriend! Ignore her family if you want, but your brother chose her, and loves her. If her family are a nightmare, that's not her fault!
I agree withou you abthe the "vday" woman and the bother-in-law, about the "y u so fat" was a poor choice of words she could have ask him about it but should go with a different way on doing that.
@@DarkHeartTheEmo maybe ask once, but when everybody else says it's mean, maybe just accept that you might have misjudged the situation. I always believe that "if you think the whole world is wrong because no one agrees with you, maybe it really is you that's wrong." And the fact that she said "i often tease him about his weight, and the others tell me not to, but it's fine" just makes me think it is absolutely not fine, and this woman is just oblivious to the fact she's hurting the guy's feelings. And the fact that it's a RECURRING issue makes me think she actually has a genuine problem with his weight, but disguises it as a joke. You can also see that by how she compares "skinny" him to "now" him. She's so superficial
@@danmoar94 except she wasnt wrong in wanting to know what happened, it was an heat of the moment type situation. So no she wasnt wrong, the people around her and Mark are wrong becuase they blew it out of proportion and got offended over a question that wasnt directed towards them
Both girls were like 21 and 23. I remember taking note of their age when he mentioned it. They're clearly idiots. But young people are not strangers to saying stupid shit. So it doesn't surprise me at all. Incredibly rude, but not surprising.
So, on the note of the optometrist thing... the client owns the files. A healthcare provider can not refuse to give you your information from your file. Report that office to the governing body they are a part of
When you pay for any assessment (medical or not) the person you hired has no right to decide the results are only for their own records. The results are literally what you're paying for.
11:11 i am a massive social introvert, so i already have low self esteem when talking, better yet confessing to a crush. getting rejected basically splits the self esteem in half. the kiss joke would divide it even further, basically killing it entirely. i also use 1 word answers to people that i dislike. the kiss joke is not a joke, jokes are funny. it's as if you see someone crying about talking about her dad's death and someone starts laughing. it kills their emotion and in some cases they act like a different person. especially if their emotions are genuine. edit: fixing unnoticed mistakes due to crappy keyboard
When someone gifts you something they are forfeiting all ownership of it, so you can do with it as you please, i've had to remind family that buy me gifts for birthdays that they can't claim the item as their's cause "they bought it".
Yeah. I mean, there are some gifts that can be shared by everyone involved, escpecially for poor families, but others absolutely cannot. There are NO gifts in which the gifter has full responsibility for.
The Valentine's prank is horrible. I got a fake confession card when I was younger. And now I just don't really know when someone is flirting with me, just so I don't feel humiliated again.
When I was in Year 7, a boy asked me out. I was surprised as I didn't think myself worthy of any attention from boys... and was very young and didn't know what to do with a boyfriend. However, the boy was cute and I was flattered, thinking maybe it would be a good thing to learn with him as he seemed nice. Instantly, he said 'sike!' and crushed me. I didn't trust guys at all after that and it took until university for me to realise I actually did have some charm about me. That was from a boy I didn't know very well. When I saw where that story was going, I couldn't believe it. You don't do that to a friend, 'prank' or not. It's horrible. I'd 5/5 the one for assholeness based on my own experiences alone. For the wedding one, funny how their 'support' makes them as bad as the other family and completely disregards the brother's feelings. If I was the brother, I would not be going to that wedding.
I had something very similar happen when I was around 14. I had this crush on a boy. The boy was part of my sisters friendgroup at that time so he came over to our place once in a while. I think I even told my sister about the crush previously (not sure though) but she could clearly tell as the next time her friends came over, she asked me if had a crush on him, while he was there. I got red and stuttered that I didn't. That was that until, about an hour later, the boy came up to me and told me he liked me, asked if I liked him too because he wanted to be my boyfriend (you can clearly see where this is headed). I felt so happy and said 'yes!' immediately. I heard my sister yell 'See! I told you she had a crush on you!!!) while he walked away laughing. They were all laughing at me. That killed me. I get along with my sister now. She doesn't even remember that happened. But something like that just sticks to you
Some guys did that to me at work, one guy was known to be pretty chill and nice and cracked jokes so most didn't mind the other was the jobs. . .let's say space filler ya know the kind of guy trying to hide to not work, brag about how big he will be in life all that jazz. And everyone at work knows i've been with my current bf/fiance for 9 years so the funny one asked and I said nah and he pulled out a kisses candy I told him if he wants some real kisses get better candy. We laughed and even the manager laughed, the other guy who I find annoying asked I told him "Not even if I was single and you paid me." everyone found that funny that one chill guy did get a kiss from one chick and from the manager lol that was funny to watch.
The first story. In the Netherlands there is a tradition called: the white bread weeks where 2-3 weeks after a marriage the couple is not allowed to be disturbed by friends, relatives or business people.
When the first post came up, I thought the OP ran away on their honeymoon by themselves and left their significant other alone. Glad to know that wasn't the case.
This is like a competition of OPs who can be the least self-aware. "My friend hasn't spoken to me once since I 'pranked' him, that probably means he's forgotten all about it right?"
Karen and Dad: "You can't kick us out, we're your parents and we are FAAAAAMILY!" OP: "Yes I can. I *OWN* the house." Karen and Dad: *Surprised Pikachu Face*
Oh, I've used the Hershy's kiss line before on V-day... To my significant other on our first V-day as an official couple... And then we shared real smooches after the chuckles and nomming of chocolates. Yeah... You don't do that to someone who you know has it bad for you, but that you aren't interested in. That's just cruel.
Interesting fact: Withholding medical information from a client/patient is illegal. OP had every right to call the police.
I was gonna say, I thought that was a crime
Super illegal I'm the united states. That does infact break all kinds of HIPPA laws.
I have never left the optometrist without a prescription
I’ve lived in 3 states, 8 different clinics and 5 different pairs of glasses
Honestly, yeah, I live in Brazil and even here this is illegal; you're paying them (or you're paying your health insurance who, in turn, is paying them) to get this exam; you have every right to get your prescription, it's a medical documentation, and withholding these is completely illegal here and can get you, at minimum, a big fine for it
@@HarleyQuinn-zi5mh interesting to know. I don’t live in the US, so didn’t know that HIPAA was more than just not disclosing your personal info to anyone other than you the patient.
Having said that, I’ve never had an optometrist (in any country; three I have lived in so far,) refuse to give me my prescription.
“Ok Karen, seems like a waste of police time to me”
It seems like they dont understand what the non emergency line is for.
Yeah and wouldnt OP have already explained the situation beforehand, like before the policeman actually was dispatched?
She needs new friends
Or that you're 100% entitled to your personal medical information you paid for...
you are entitled to have the prescription and take it to any place you like, denying you and trying to make you fill with them was super illegal.
The guy might have called the non emergency line even and the cops arrived quickly because malls typically have cops nearby for mostly traffic infractions (they happen so much around malls).
The fact, that the mother put her children in her will instead of her then husband speaks for itself.
To be honest if it was an ancestral house in her family I can understand she gave it to her children instead of her husband to keep it that way. Plus if she died in a car crash or something of this nature it could be a situation where she thought her will will be used in two or three decades

"He knows that I'm not serious about anything 99% of the time."
Which is why he asked you if you were serious... and then you lied to his face. He confessed his most personal feelings and you used it to make fun of him.
What's the question, again?
I give her 1/5. The reason why the damage from this even was so severe is because the guy didn't do himself any favors. He's 20 and genuinely thinks he's found his soulmate. I remember being neive like that too. He put ALL his eggs in one basket, classic rookie mistake. And expected a chronic prankster to seriously pull a full 180 in a week. I would have upgraded to a 2 or 3/5 if she played it up more, confessing her "love" and leaning in for a fake kiss before putting the chocolate against his lips instead of her own. But dude needs some thicker skin. Sounds cold but thrust me, he's not helping with his heartbreak. Approach relationships like an adult, not a 13 year old hopeful
@@shykorustotora I give her 5/5
1 for denying that he took the rejection poorly because he made face with her. She should have believed her friends.
Another for deciding to play with his emotions in general, thinking it would be funny. Inconsiderate af.
One more for choosing to play this bad prank on VALENTINES DAY.
Yet another for that specific prank, during which he asked if she was serious (knowing she was a prankster). If she would have been honest at that point, it'd be one less star.
And for the last butthole point, calling his response to her shitty behaviour an "overreaction", regardless of how everyone in their friend group all openly agrees that she was an ass.
OP in that story is douchetastic
@Preston Whisler You don't get bonus points for acting like an adult. That's par. Look at this guy, he genuinely put ALL of his eggs in one basket at age 20. That's not HER fault
@@kp-fc4yr "Play with his emotions". Yes she pulled at a delicate thread, but he made it worse for himself. He put every egg he had in her basket... at age 20.. after already being rejected a week prior...
If anything the dude comes across as creepy desperate. Strikes me as the "good guy" type
@Shykorus Totora
You have literally no information about this guy except what OP, who was trying to make the story sound as favorable as possible for herself, stated. And she made it pretty clear he was a level headed guy who confided his negative emotions about the situation to his other friends so as to not burden her with them (i.e., avoided making her feel culpable). Yeah, he is actually a *good* guy from the sounds of it (fyi, the term you were looking for was "nice" guy).
Also, the point being made by @Preston Whisler wasn't that he was being an adult, but rather that OP was the one being a child.
Also also, where are you getting this "soulmate" and "every egg in one basket" bullshit? At what point was that even hinted at? He liked OP, clearly, but that does not in any way insinuate he *ONLY* liked OP.
It sounds to me like you starred in this exact same manipulative role at some point and are trying desperately to justify your past actions. Guess what? No matter how defensive you get, no matter how you rationalize it, everyone else will think you're the asshole when they find out.
See? Other people can make baseless assertions too.
About the optometrist:
I’d say that’s withholding medical records or something along those lines and that’s illegal. OP was very much in the right for calling the non-emergency line for the police to handle things.
Yes he is. Don't understand his friends tho
Medical records cannot be withheld from requesting patients. That is a HIPAA violation and they can in get in trouble for it. That's one of the great things about HIPAA...it protects your right for privacy but also extends basic rights so that you can be involved in your own care.
Yeah, that ophthalmologist is running a scam. I hope the OP reports them to their State Board of Ophthalmologists.
I had an optician get mad at me for having to measure my pupillary distance for online glasses. He had to, since my eye doctor asked him to do it, and but he was not happy. I partly get it, as the opticians make commission on sales. But I'm disabled and on Medicaid. It's literally impossible for me to afford progressive lenses from them, so he wasn't going to make any commission from me anyway. 😂
Turns out he got passive-aggressive and wrote my script out wrong. I got this confirmed at a second eye doctor, who I had to see for a special test. I have to tilt my head to the left to see out of my right lens well, lol.
Makes me back up the online places even more. It's a pain to self-measure everything, but I'm very happy to do it as they're so affordable. Otherwise, I just don't get to see. Screw their commission.
It's also in violation of Eyeglass Rule, enforced by the Federal Trade Commission. Eyeglass Rule says you have to get a prescription whether or not you ask for one. You're even supposed to give it right after a eye exam. If a optometrist is employed by the Federal, state, or local government, they are exempted from the Eyeglass Rule. If you want proof, it is on the FTC, it is called Eyeglass Rule
I agree that friend was the butthole. They have no right to withhold medical records.
As a girl who has had numerous intense crushes on completely unobtainable guys, if I was the victim of the Hershey Kiss prank, I probably would’ve cried myself to sleep. The tiniest things can get your hopes up when you’re in love, and that rejection really sucks.
As a guy who has never had a girlfriend because he is too awkward and with no confidence, same
fr, the hersheys kiss line is only funny when it’s someone who obviously doesn’t like you OR someone who you’re already in a romantic relationship with.
“He didn’t look very upset. He actually took it very well. All of me friends said that he was seriously upset about the rejection but that wasn’t my experience.”
Do you expect him to be a Nice Guy and react badly to it? Of course he’s gonna be upset but he’s going to stay chill about it because that’s the normal response. Tf?
Whether or not it was the oldest trick in the book prank, he has feelings for you and isn’t going to realize it.
She called the NON emergency line, she is in the clear.
Exactly! Besides if it was a waist of time the one on the phone or the officer would/could have said so right?
Yeah. NTA all over it. It was issue enough for an officer to arrive, with a call over the non-emergency. Which means that optometry practice is trying to pull some shit by withholding the prescription.
Exactly. And withholding her prescription is illegal
she was in the clear anyway because they were supposed to have their own copy of the prescription and give her her own copy
“How could you fall for the Hershey’s Kiss line?” Clearly op needs to know that you shouldn’t emotionally prank someone that they knew was serious about them smh
Robert Loper
By early, it could’ve been even less than a week between when the guy confessed and when op pulled the prank. I dunno about the others, but where I’m from, the first 10 days of every month is considered early.
Jennifer Thach I’ve never even heard of the “Hershey’s Kiss Line.” Since when did that even become a thing? And that OP thinks it’s funny and normal? She’s gonna continue to be single with that apathetic and negative attitude.
The thing is that she was toying with his emotions and didn't care. She knew he had feelings for her, she rejected him, and then she proceeded to go ahead with that trick? Especially the way she did it... not like she just walked up to him and said, "Hey, you wanna kiss?" and then handed him a Hershey's kiss. No, when she went the "We need to talk" route, he thought she had changed her mind and he was getting his hopes up, only to be totally let down. It was a cruel, ill-timed prank.
My immediate reaction was "you b****" I can't believe that someone would do that
I know right! It’s emotional abuse!
About the glasses one “so you called the police cause they wouldn’t give you your prescription?” Yes that’s what the non-emergency line is for
The friend calls OP a Karen like they called emergency services
Did "non-emergency line" fly over your head?
Regarding the "Kiss Prank":
I feel like O.P. would only understand why setting someone up with a positive life directional change and then ripping it away is uncool if it happened to them.
e.g.
"I found your lost cat/dog, they're at my house!"
_presents stuffed toy cat/dog after they arrive at the house_
"Hey, a thick envelope from _blank_ university came for you."
_hands them a fake acceptance letter from their dream school that ends with "Just Kidding."_
Hmm..why no one comment here...
Just the general idea of doing that kind of prank close to the confession and then pulling that on valentines day, is beyond fked up imho.
Probably 100% killed his confidence talking with women for a long time.
I don't know.. I get the feeling that even in this situation, she would be angry at the person who pranked her like that, but still believe she was in the right and the most hilarious prankster in her own situation.
But literally who asks do you want a kiss? Unless they re doing that kiss prank.
@@Original_Tenshi_Chan but she said they prank each other all the time

On the last one: Seeing that the mom willed the homes in the daughters' names and not her husbands......says a lot. A LOT.
@Nerdy Jeremy No, N Logan was correct. The Mom passed away three years ago, but the Dad married this new Woman only six months after that. What R/ was mistaken on was the date of her passing, so no the Dad didn't get this other Woman pregnant while still married to OP's Mom. But N Logan's point still stands, that's an incredibly short amount of time to not just get over a spouse's death, but to completely remarry.
Well, your significant other can move on and might abandon your children so it's safer to just give the property directly to your children. At least that's what I'm thinking about that situation
@N Logan Not to mention she was 7 months pregnant
Not sure if it's uncommon in US but here in Europe, it's actually suggested and fairly normal. Divorce and shitty relationships happen and it prevents lots of possible issues.
N Logan and kicked his own fucking daughter out of someone else’s house
Everyone knows that the Hershey's Kiss trick is only a backup for the person who is asking the other person out, not the other way around.
Also, you played him like fiddle. Hard. As a guy, I would *totally* take that to heart. That's just soul crushing and belittling.
As a girl, I’m so confused on how that girl could be so cruel and not have sympathy. Like??? You broke his heart?
To be honest, before this i never even heard of a Hersey Kiss trick :/ (i had to google Hersey Kiss). Maybe because i am from another country.. anyways that so called prank would hurt so deeply and then even more so if the other person is like that person
She didn’t play him like a fiddle, cause fiddles are hard to play and take time, she played him like a kazoo, cheap and tactic-less. Absolutely horrible and fucked up
@@madeliefje1991 I mean, I don't know where OP is from but I'm from the States and I have never heard of the prank, either.

“I’m pretty sure he forgot about it by now”
*huh*
Yeah, pretty sure he won't forget that for years to come. Playing with people's feelings is more dangerous than you realize. Someone opens up and shares their feelings, they get shut down. That's tough but it happens. But to then take that vulnerability and completely shattering their hopes and self-confidence? That's some traumatizing sh*t right there, chances are he won't ever be friends with her again.
Here's the short version of a long story. I had a guy from my church ask me to go with him to the movies. I was a little taken aback at first because I hadn't really considered dating him before, but after a moment, I agreed - after all you don't know where things might go and I thought he was nice enough - we had known each other for a while and had both been to each others birthday parties as well as the parties of mutual friends. After I had already agreed and we had planned all the details (movie, location, time etc) he said 'By the way, is Rosie (my sister) able to come?" I was stunned for a moment, but then told him 'no, she's busy'. Even after that I stupidly went on the date anyway (first Hunger Games movie). It was civil, but awkward - no chemistry at all, but neither of us was rude to the other.
I told my sister about this later and she just scoffed - this guy had asked her on a date only about a week before asking me (unlike me, she was smart enough to tell him 'no'). Yep - that guy had the nerve to try to use me to get the date with the 'better' sister who had already rejected him.
My point in sharing this is to demonstrate that when it comes to being an asshole - especially when it comes to the whole topic of dating - you don't simply 'forget about it'. Just as I can directly quote his line of 'by the way, is Rosie able to come?', I'm sure the guy in this story could also quote the moment the girl told him to 'lighten up' after so blatantly toying with his feelings (on Valentine's day no less).
BTW, the guy left our church only about a month later, publicly explaining his reason for leaving on Facebook as 'All the decent girls are taken' (and yes - that is another quote).
@@nami141 What an absolute tool. I'm kind of glad traditional dating isn't really a thing in my country.

Okay, it is an asshole hove, if you kick someone out of your house out of nowhere...

That wasn't the issue here, remember what the pregnant woman said to her sister, also remember what the father did after that accusation "you are like your mother and a burden to your father", he did nothing told her to pack up and go to the aunt, although he don't have the right or authority to do that he isn't his house. he is a shitty father and the OP is totally right off kick them out.
Well i would say that it would be an asshole move if they are your Mom or dad/some relative and you got no excuse to kick them out... But in that story they had a good reason so its fine

Dude got rejected once, he insisted next day, rejected twice. Eat dirt for not getting the first hint!
@@RetroArcadeGuy he didnt insist the girl played a prank on him that toyed with his feelings
The wedding story is pretty messed up. If the girlfriend's family doesn't accept the brother, the best thing his family could do is to wholeheartedly accept the girlfriend into their family. That would show her family how judgemental they're being. Instead, OP is acting just as awful as the girlfriend's family.
Yeah.. that was kinda messed up. Like, it's the complete opposite of help... gosh dang
Exactly! If I was in OPs place, I would invite my brother and his girlfriend with open arms!!
I have a different perspective, I see it as fighting fire with fire because seems the gf of the brother is not really trying to convince her parents it seems she is just letting in side because he said his brother had been trying to get her parents to like him for a while but just my opinion PS: I could be totally wrong but we need more details on if gf was trying her hardest to get her parents approval
Mr Ritter 16 except it could just cause her family to double down and go “look they don’t accept you so just break up with him!”
I really thought he would let the girlfriend go to the wedding but just don't invite the parents. Like it's not even the girlfriend's fault that the parents are acting that way, why would he exclude the girlfriend and act like she's also the terrible person too?
As someone who is very insecure, the joke of Valentine's day was way too far, of course the guy wouldn't talk to you during the entire shift, heck she is lucky that the guy would answer her in the same day. The guy dodge a bullet.
Metrack you don’t have to be someone who’s very insecure to know that was insensitive! Also being entirely dismissive of his feelings and making constant excuses for her behaviour all through the post is a sign of someone needing some self awareness and maturity.
@@xcheesyindianx I agree, the fact that she didn't ever once feel the need to apologize shows that she's a self-centered bitch. I'd feel horrible if I had done a prank like that and realized I had played with someone's emotions.
I'm glad that the rest of the friends stood up for Mark in the story from 7:14-10:10. If the op saw the same thing happen except the genders are swapped then I have feeling that she would be mad at the dude instead of saying, "He was just asking."
Exactly. That woman would flip out if a guy said a woman was fat
I was wondering if OP is just clueless about social cues because there's no way someone could be that ignorant of how their words could hurt
Also, kinda weird that the receptionist suddenly goes on a tirade just because OP didn't want to buy the glasses from the next store...it's like she/he's getting kickbacks from it or something. Also, for the plane story...why didn't the stewardess asked ANYONE else? Or at least tells OP which seat he'd be moved to?
I work for the police, and in NO WAY would I consider this a waste of an officer's time. Scams like this are exactly what police are for.
She was going to "show" him the seat.. And by that, I mean get him up long enough for the siblings to commandeer his seat and then she be like "Well, they're already seated and who am I to separate siblings"
@@thesexysanghieli7818 Her. The OP is a woman.
@@thesexysanghieli7818 My thoughts exactly! As soon as she moved her seat would have been occupied. I do think there should have been more explanation though. Some flights are not numbered seats and we don't know the age of these children. Had they been unaware of their right to priority seating (as minors and on the wrong side of the gate for adult instruction) they could have waited too long to get seats together. However, I do find it strange that no-one else was asked to change seats and the unoccupied seat was not filled with someone (one of the children or a displaced adult) which shows the flight was not full. Maybe they upgraded them and the OP's reluctance to move made their flight better as well as hers :D
@@thesexysanghieli7818 A good answer would be "unless that seat is an upgrade no thanks"
The glasses story makes me so mad. It is ILLEGAL to refuse to give someone their own medical records.
Looked it up, and they could potentially be jailed for 10 years for doing it.
that happened with my brother as well and u know what the place shut down due lot of complaints of not giving them the prescription and forcing the clients to buy their glasses.
Being one who has to wear glasses to actually see anything more than 4 inches from my face, yeah it is HIGHLY illegal for refusal of giving medical records to the patient of said records and/or Guardian if applicable.
Big same. If anything he should report them to the state board of opthalmic dispensers
@@gan-erdene.m2732 if you ever see a situation like that please please please file a report with the state board. They take that stuff very seriously and are more then happy to fine the shit out of them
the wedding story made me so sad. as someone who has incredibly conservative parents, i would be devastated if i couldn't go to a partner's sibling's wedding because of my parent's beliefs, not my own. i can't control them and their thoughts and feelings. the op in that story was just way out of line.
He is a butthole,he could have take the high route and accept his brother girlfriend to the wedding but just her and nobody else from her family, that would be fine, but instead of that decide to be like the family of the girlfriend although she had no blame on that. And he still think he is being supportive, yeah right.
@@DarkHeartTheEmo It was a she. She was getting married to another she and didn't want her brother's Indian G/F going to her wedding because of her parents..
So it be nice, let her in as her family kicks the brother to the side non stop, putting both through pain or block her coming to the wedding, which is doing the same thing leaving them by themselves. Yeah, they didn’t think this through n messed up.
Oh if you think the original post was bad just read his comments on the post OP just got worse and worse the more he posted. It was so bad that commenters followed to another post on a whole different subreddit to comment about the post.
See: www.reddit.com/user/Cheap-Door/
When her family rejected her partner it was also a rejection of her! Thank goodness no-one in my life has ever rejected me because of my mother's hatred of all that I love! She tried to stop me having anything to do with ANYONE who cared about me. Literally anyone!
The story with the wedding and the girlfriend was so messed up
The girlfriend can’t control how her family sees her boyfriend and she clearly loves him? Pushing her out of their family because the parents to that to the boyfriend is gonna make the situation worse
Technically, her family is being racist too for not accepting the white boyfriend....not saying OP is right but he is not wrong either
I would have done the same thing. If you're family can't accept my family then it's not worth it here!
@@someonenewnow212 And that does not mean that OP should exclude _the girlfriend_ for things _her parents_ do. The sins of the parents do not pass onto the child.
@@MartialArtswithLucyLu so dumb. so you'd go just as low as the family that doesn't accept your brother? i bet the gf really tried to get the parents to like him. you're the type of person i really don't like.
@@gloriacoodood2287 I love how you think I'm dumb when I'm probably more nicer than you are here! If I was the girlfriend I would make sure that my family respects no matter what and if they don't I will give the two options either respect the boyfriend or have me cut contact with all of you here! As for the parents if they really loved their daughter they would want to be happy and accept her relationship no matter what here! I understand where he's coming I stand by what I said he did the right thing here!
the wedding one is really dumb, they should have just invited the girlfriend, and not her family. its not the girlfriends fault.
hfandgkrsyjsvmfjjsfjitsjdgmfuzhvn according to OP “this is not punishing the Indian gf. This is to teach her a lesson” she believes that if the gf doesn’t disown her family, then she is toxic. She says that she’s doing the best for her brother. What a joke. This is what I read from the original reddit post and those are the words OP used
He could've said like "I think you should tell your family that you are being invited to your bf's wedding and that they won't even give your bf a chance and that it isn't fair" not"you're banned to come to anything related to our family until your parents change" 2 horrible things don't make anything good
Also, if the gf parents are against the relationship inviting the brother's gf to the family activities would be a very nice way to support the relationship
magnetothewhite the OP is a girl btw. She believes that she knows best for her little brother and feels that the “Indian gf” (she kept repeating that the gf was Indian) is toxic if she doesn’t disown her family.
We are missing some information on how the GF is acting towards her family. She may be enabling her family's actions which is what's prompting the response in hopes of getting her to grow a backbone.
For the Valentine’s Day prank.....holy shit man, that’s cold. There’s a difference between pranks and toying with someone’s emotions and feelings for you for your amusement. You probably broke that guy for what you thought was a harmless prank. I feel for the guy
Rslash was right too, if the roles were switched she would definitely be complaining on the internet about how guys are jerks
@@Georgesingsss
For me the roles where switched and I didn't go cry about it like he did. He should learn how to get over it because if a grown ass man can't get over a prank like that when something very similar happened to me in middle school and I got over it then there is clearly something wrong.
Nice Wish you where here pfp
Ruff64 thank you!! It’s my favorite album
@@Someone-kf8xe you just sound like an asshole not everyone reacts to things the same way. Also obviously it was something important to him and he got toyed with by someone he thought was a friend who couldn't even apologize. He probably did get over it but doesn't want to be friends with someone who can't even apologize.
That story with the “harmless” prank is honestly a bit messed up. He confessed to having a crush on OP, she rejects him, he didn’t take it well, and OP toys with his emotions with that heartless prank.....smh
99% of the "Prank"-Stories: OP is the asshole
@@warumusic1714 Yeah same, especially because that kind of happen to me, so is more relatable, the prank was overall bad, if it was any other day maybe the thing wouldn't be that hard, but she did it at Valentine day, so she is a completly butthole/asshole.
She knew he had a crush on her, she pretended to give them a chance and she's surprised that he didn't get the "joke". Like... wtf, girl?! That guy can feel free to say "the trash took itself out".
5/5 but holea
I was kinda just about to point that out. Even without her reaction she is definitely, 100% an asshole. At best she rubbed salt into his wounds, at worst she gave him hope only to cut him back down in an instant. You don't do that sort of thing to a stranger, let alone to a "friend". Then she responds to it by trying to make light of what she did and how she hurt his feelings through it and responds to the whole thing with "why is everyone mad~ at me~? It was only a little, itty~ bitty~ prank..." Have to wonder why the guy likes her in the first place when she somehow thinks things like that are okay and how she managed to make friends in the first place.
The valentines day one was definitely the butthole. You should never play with someone's genuine feeling. That sort of thing can be emotionally traumatic.
Last story: notice how the new wife said "You're just like your mom", which means she was definitely around while the mom was still alive. Plus re-marrying 6 months after the mom's passing away is just sketchy af.
Remarrying is not really sketchy. Lots of people do that to pass over their grief. I would agree perhaps is a bit fast, but not sketchy.
But the gf is 7 months pregnant just do the math and It doesn't add up
There was a time skip between remarried - sister's bday party.
Clarify:
The mom dies 3yrs ago, the dad remarried 6 months after her death. After 3yrs they gor pregnant with twins. He might have been cheating on her but he didnt have the baby while she was alive.
Getting married that quickly usually means they did not care that much for their spouse. Most people think just meeting someone and getting married after 6 months is moving way to fast if they were single when they met. Makes you wonder how long after her mom died he started looking for someone new and if he actually mourned her mom at all.this hits close to home for me when my mom died my stepdad (who had been our dad for 11 years and the only dad we knew since our dad died when I was 4 sister 2 and brother 6 and they got married 2 years later. We all called him dad and my parents were already getting separated when he died) got remarried 10 months later and started dating her within a month of my mom death. We knew then that he didn't really love her and just easily replaced her.
The kiss one pissed me off she rejected him and then she played with his feelings like guys have feelings she should’ve got a 5/5 not a 3.5/5
Dude, I was screaming she deserves a 10! (Luckily I'm home alone, otherwise my parents would be scared/worried) What she did was absolutely horrible!
fucking, agree with you to the max my guy
Yeah what the flip is her problem? Especially after he ADMITTED he had a crush on her. And she clearly says no. But then plays with his feelings soon after he admitted it. Like...how is that an ok prank to do? It isn't. Sorry. 5/5. Don't play with people's feelings.
I think I already responded myself separately, but I agree. This is one of the worst asshole stories rslash has covered. It honestly seems like she's a sociopath to me and in her case I'd be all for sterilising her. She can't be allowed to raise kids, she has no compass.
100% agree. He wasn't even done reading what she said and all I could think was omg she's such an asshole.
The Valentines Day Prank: "I'm pretty sure he forgot about it by now."
I'm pretty sure he hasn't. He probably never will
That shit scars you for life. Telling you from experience
@@familyguysofunny1933 yes it does. It may not always be on the surface but it does tend to factor into your love life thereafter even if you don't consciously think about it. My opinion is based on experience in messed up crushes and romances early on.
At least it likely cured him of his crush, seeing her true colors. I highly doubt he would still have feelings for her after that. I managed to instantly lose my crush on a couple of guys in high school when I saw them do or heard them say something utterly despicable. Of course, I didn’t know either very well, so it wasn’t anything more than a crush; what he felt for OP was probably much stronger and maybe not as easily discarded.
"He hasn't spoken to me since but I'm pretty sure he's forgotten all about it". OK I did some hurtful things when I was young but I don't think I was ever quite that lacking in self-awareness.
Yeah that line ticked me off too. Something like this never happened to me, yet I am insecure about myself. I can't even imagine how that guy must have felt. The incredible happiness immediately turn into depression, the feeling of being betrayed... just thinking about that makes me feel so.... off.
This just magnified my trust issues.
Hershey’s kiss op: that’s a one way trip to giving someone trust issues
The fact that the “joke” is used as a backup if you ask someone for a kiss and they say no and you give them the chocolate. She used it in reverse and that’s the worst part

@@chancesmith7231 Errr... no. Sounds pointless and insane.
Okay, as I was that person that people often played that Valentines Day "joke" on when I was younger, it isn't harmless AT ALL. It's a terrible asshole move that not only takes something that someone had to gain the courage to bring up, in the first place, but smashes it into the ground when the other person basically makes fun of your feelings. It's very hurtful, and to this day, I still have problems believing people when they give me any sort of complement in a romantic way because of THAT EXACT BS that I was tormented with. It's not okay. Ever. A joke is only funny if it doesn't hurt someone else in the process. That's the difference between light-hearted and mean that a lot of people don't seem to understand.
I was worried there wouldve been a sadder ending that he hurt himself because of it. That thought is just so crushing because of these "jokes". If I had it happen to me and I still look back and can feel sad then imagine others who only say they are fine. 😔
Like I said somewhere else: this is what you do with people who'd be more excited for a candy than an actual kiss. Like children.
Did you tell them to stop the “BS MOVE”
@Mercedes follett I remember in middle school and early highschool some boys during lunch would say to me "HE LIKES YOU!"point at some random guy at the table and they'd just laugh.
miss Kaiya, very well said and I completely agree! It is NEVER ok to make fun of someone's feelings PERIOD! I also would like to add that the so called "weird kids" in my experience (from kindergarten to high school) were always the kids who grew up to actually make something of themselves & also the most kind loyal & friends. I'm sorry you had to go through that! You are a very pretty girl & "weird" is just derogatory word for original in my opinion. Good one you for being your own person! Please always be you because you are clearly one of a kind 💖
"Everybody knows that it's the oldest and lamest trick in the book" No?
I only know it as a save (not a joke) if you asked someone "do you want to kiss" and they respond something along the lines of 'wtf' and you can respond with "do you want a kiss" and pull out a Hershey's kiss (so just incase they don't want to kiss or you chicken out).
Also his response should have told you he clearly didn't know the joke and it would therefor be cruel and definitely not harmless.
yeah, like the old "do you want a spoon" then if they don't, you pull out a spoon to save face, turn it into a joke. But when you do that, you WANT them to say yes so you can get some spooning action
Doesn't even matter if he knew the joke or not, since she didn't just ask him "do you want a kiss", but set it up with explicitely saying that she thought about how he confessed his crush to her and wanted to talk to him about it (and on Valentine's day!) - there is really no way of blaming him for getting lead on. Getting the guy's hopes up and then crushing them for a cheap laugh is seriously hurtful and definitely not a prank you should ever pull on a friend.
The wedding story confused me like why not invite the girlfriend and do that threatening with the gf’s family? What did the GF do to deserve this?
They started the story with "im not racist but.." Her crime was being Indian

Rslash seems to be wrong more, and have a higher negative reception in these types of aita videos that just his normal reddit reading videos.
Not girlfriend. Wife. I think that adds insult to injury.
@@drstryker2433 Rslash got the timeline a little off, but over all, he was correct in his verdict. The "father" calls his daughter a "cruel brat" for kicking him and his leeching, manipulative, abusive wife out of her house. Meanwhile, the "father" replaces his deceased wife immediately, lets the replacement move into his daughter's home and take over, walks over the memory of her deceased mother and then proceeds to KICK HIS OWN KID out of her own house. If not supporting to heartless gold diggers is "cruel", then he is the most cruel, heartless, spineless and vile inhuman monster that has ever slithered upon this globe, by "father's" own yard stick. Just the fact that he is choosing anyone over his children, is disgusting, and I wish nothing but the worst for him and his fellow gold digging spouse.
Clearly there was a reason their mother chose to leave everything to her daughters and nothing to her spouse. Seems to me she saw a lot of this coming before she passed. (I mean him picking a new piece of ass over his own children, and being willing to through his minor child out on the street in order to keep his piece of ass happy. Or selling it all and taking off with said new piece of ass. Either way, he's a piece of shit and I hope his daughters have an amazing life and never have to see him or the replacement ever again)
@@Original_Tenshi_Chan I have a feeling that the new wife has something to do with OP's mother's death. Maybe the mother didn't die of natural causes or something, as they never specified how she died. Maybe the new wife hated her, especially how she insulted the deceased lady by removing her pictures around the house and while arguing with the daughter. Probably was happy that the mother died, especially since the dad married her six months after the mom died and was pregnant for SEVEN months, meaning the dad was most likely cheating while the mom was still alive. I don't know, just speculating 😂
Thought someone was here and posted this. The Step Mom has no grounds or right to really say if the mom was a burden or not. Further, neither the dad nor step mom had the right to kick the 16 y.o. out, first of all, the dad is suppose to be responsible and care for his daughter, secondly, it is not their house, so they don't get to have a say as to who lives there or doesn't; if they don't like it, they can leave, and thirdly, 2 grown adults have a better chance of dealing with things and rebounding than a 16 y.o., sure they sent her to her aunt, but that is making her a burden to someone else and is very likely to have to force her to do a lot to fend for herself, which will mess up her future.
Breaking news: father called his eldest child cruel after kicking his underaged daughter from the house he lived in rent free by leeching off of the child he insulted who owned the house he got kicked out of as result of allowing his pregnant girlfriend to abuse his daughter
And he allowed his new girlfriend to blatantly disrespect his deceased wife by taking photos that are obviously important to OP and the sister off the walls. It’s clear what his priorities really are.
With the optometrist story his prescription was a medical record and they were withholding that which (as you said) they can’t do so not a butthole. At least he called the non emergency line. Love your vids. 😄
As someone who works in an optometrist, I can confirm the the practice was totally in the wrong. You have a legal right to your prescription and they *have* to give it to you if you request it, it doesn’t matter what else they want you to do. In the end, the most they can do is advise you and refer you onward if needed, but they would still have to give up the prescription no matter what. Op did the right thing, that practice smells of sus
For the last story:
OP's mom died three years ago, and their dad moved on six months after their mom's death. He's been with the stepmom for two and a half years
Officially.
ok, thanks for the clarification
yep.
Literally the first line of the post was 'My mother passed away 3 years ago'. rSlash is a dumb dumb sometimes.
The fact that the father moved on so fast makes me wonder if step-mom was the side piece that just got "lucky". And how did she NOT know that it wasn't his house? Didn't OP or her sister tell her when she couldn't do something like the photos? Or the bills?
The glasses doctor was DEFINITELY breaking the law in trying to not give them their glasses prescription (in the US at least, probably elsewhere to). This USED to be legal decades ago, but it no longer is. In the last decade or two this protection was extended to contact lenses as well.
The optometrist, who is also known as an "optician", is not a doctor, but a graduate in Optics and Optometry. Ophthalmologists are the doctors who made the specialty that studies eye diseases and their treatment.
@@e.noeliahurtado7121 honestly pretty unimportant as far as normal people are concerned, as long as he is allowed to put a "diagnosis" like he can his clients should have complete access to their own records (medical or otherwise).
agreed, "The Federal Trade Commission enforces the Eyeglass Rule. It requires eye doctors - ophthalmologists and optometrists - to give patients a copy of their prescription - whether they ask for it or not. It’s the law." however "The Eyeglass Rule does not apply to ophthalmologists or optometrists employed by any Federal, State or local government entity."
That 'kiss' prank reminds me of an old Fat Albert song. A joke isn't a joke if it hurts someone.

@@EdenRichardson25 i agree in the fact that if it doesn’t hurt someone it’s not technically a joke. Problem is, there’s a very thin line between a joke being funny or hurtful, and she crossed it by far.

I actually just went through the same thing with a opthamologist in my local town. By HIPAA law, in the United States of America, you can get copies of your own Medical Records. I had to invoke my right to HIPAA for them to mail me my prescription. I know the prescription was out of date, and I will be getting a new prescription soon. I just like to keep a copy for my own medical records at home.

"I'm not racist, BUT racist people are"
9:15 as a moderately overweight person myself, I can say that usually no matter how much we play it off and no matter how light hearted the jokes are, they always hurt. And usually when we say it’s fine or defend the attacker, we’re just trying to draw attention away from the fact that we are overweight. We don’t like that we are fat, and it is genuinely hard to make a change when you are so far gone. And these jokes hurt even more when you are trying to turn yourself around. So while I acknowledge they had no foul intent, I can say that you should never joke around about someone’s weight. And even if they are fine with fat jokes, just don’t do it anyway.
I agree on the fat jokes thing, I think calling her an asshole for the question was a bit much because for me personally, I'd rather be asked about "what happened" than to be teased about the result. And if they know "what happened" usually the jokes stop and they are more compasionate. It wasn't an fully asshole thing to do if you ask me. To me to be an asshole it has to be something very harmful to another person and also somewhat delibrate, otherwise it's ignorance and that's hard to fault considering that means they literally don't know better.
@@Amayagma I partially agree with you. The friend was right, op had no tact, there is a difference between asking "what happened" in a private setting, and "how did you get so far" in front of friends. There may not have been ill will on behalf of op, but asking how you became fat, is really just not appropriate.
In my opinion, the question didn't make OP a butthole, rather, it's the fact that they made jokes about the friend's weight.
Even though this is an video. I agree with ALRB. asking a question isn’t harmful but joking about someone weights. For one bullying someone for something they is not ok and two Sense it was question and a common question at that. Easily a fixable issue by answering the question with I have a medical problems or not comfortable on answering it and Rslash maybe rephrase that answer you get 1 out of 5 but holes on this one Op 3-5 but holes and the rest of the people in this story 4-5 but holes they didn’t even have the audacity to stand up for the guy until he asked a question about it.
Advice if you stand by and done nothing to stop the bullying then your no better than then the bullies themselves. Remember it well
Its not like she/he even knew what happened, She was just curious. Did you know that the human brain is constantly trying to learn something? Anything possible? It does this until the day it dies.
The one where the guy was asked "What happened? Why'd you get fat?" was more about being tactless and forgetting to keep out of other peoples business, but what really got my jaw-to-the-floor WTF was the Kiss story - you do NOT prank someone who has already confessed they have a crush on you like that! That whole thing felt _malicious_, done totally on purpose to hurt.
Exactly
They LITERALLY EXPLAINED that they did NOT mean for a HARMLESS prank to be HURTFUL!
@@thequiccvelociraptor2994 okay, think of it like this. You confess to someone that you want to be with them. They reject you. Then a week later, they lead you on, saying that they thought about what you said. Then BOOM, they ask if you want a kiss and pull that bull. That's the perfect way to hurt anyone pretty badly and is far from a "harmless prank."
She sounds like a "nice girl."
Why is everyone so mad at her for pulling a prank like that- It's just a softer way to say, I don't like you that much.
The person who broke their friend's heart on Valentines Day gets 5 out of 5 Buttholes. It wasn't a joke to their friend who had confessed his feelings twice. That was just plain cruel and they feel zero remorse.
no wonder she didn't reciprocate. that bitch was utterly HEARTLESS.
"My brother's girlfriend's parents are HORRIBLE, so I'll be just like them!" jeez nice, stoop down to their level huh. An eye for an eye and the world goes blind. If anything, do the exact opposite, welcome her with open arms, show her family what it means to support someone.
Henri Dark-Fleury what are you talking about? What does this Pearson’s parents or background have anything to do with what was said?
This is EXACTLY what they should do. They should invite the girlfriend. Considering her background just the fact that she’s dating OP’s brother means that she’s standing up to her parents. She can only do so much. Why should she have to pay for what her parents do? If anything what OP is doing is ostracizing her from both families making her parents disapprove even more and her life harder. This isn’t a get even type of thing. This is a making it worse for everyone with what OP is doing.
Henri Dark-Fleury also I found the Reddit post. The OP doesn’t care how the gf feels and is only controlling her brother’s life bed cause she feels that she knows best for her brother and is “keeping toxic people out of her life”
Exactly...if you care for your brother, you care for what HE likes. Welcome her to the family and show her a better one....but reading @@terra_the_nightingale135 comment, I would say to her brother to not show up and just go on a trip that day. And I also wonder if her attitude has influenced the parents attitude (as in, I'm sure it's not the 1st clash between the families).
Exactly. If there are 2 parents, A and B, and A kills B's child, does A's child deserve to die? All OP is doing in that scenario is breeding more hate between the familiy, he's making the girlfriend want to be out of the family, which is what her parents are doing.
Do i agree with how they are handling it, not really. But I can't lie and say I don't see what they're trying to do. I'm not entirely sure but I'm assuming the family has seen how painful it is for him to be rejected by the family of the woman he loves, I think maybe their thought is if her parents see her experience that same pain then they'll think twice about their racism. Maybe it works maybe it doesn't.

It’s your legal right to see YOUR MEDICAL HISTORY. Sue them.
I had one local eyeglass place who had an "independent" optometrist doing the exams. One major thing you need buying glasses online is your pupilary distance, PD, the doctor refused to measure mine saying the store staff would do it (his prescription pad had a specific line for the PD) the staff finding out I wasn't buying glasses from them refused to measure my PD for me. I complained to corporate they arranged for a whole new exam. I went in. Doctor was annoyed with me for complaining. Measures my PD. I get home and compare my two, week apart exam results. They're NOTHING alike! I didn't know which one was accurate, probably the 1st one. Contacted corporate, seriously ready to file an AMA for malpractice. A bad prescription could ruin my eyes or cause me to have an accident. They arrange a 2nd doctor to do a THIRD eye exam. This one was closer to the 1st but the PD was quite different. Corporate also arranged a free pair of glasses, any options, any frames to compensate me for the bullshit.My 1st exam was $40 (refunded as well) two subsequent exams $80, glasses in designer frames (they broke during fitting!) with Transitions XtraActive $680. All because a doctor refused to do his job. I'd have happily ordered online from Zenni their stuff ships slow but is top notch and super affordable. But the doc and the store wanted to play games. They lost.
Good. I'd still file a complaint against the doctor, because he shouldn't have a license, let alone be working for and ruining someone else's business.
@@littilwood I honestly should have especially after the 2nd deliberate sabotaged prescription but I had spent hours on the phone and made so many trips across town. I just wanted it over.
"The Federal Trade Commission enforces the Eyeglass Rule. It requires eye doctors - ophthalmologists and optometrists - to give patients a copy of their prescription - whether they ask for it or not. It’s the law." and " In some states, you are required to include the pupillary distance. If your patient wants to buy glasses online, they will need that measurement. Also, the prescription should be legible and complete." however "The Eyeglass Rule does not apply to ophthalmologists or optometrists employed by any Federal, State or local government entity."
also "If you suspect violations of the Eyeglass Rule or the Contact Lens Rule, you can report that online at ftc.gov/complaint. FTC attorneys and investigators - and hundreds of other law enforcement agencies - use complaints to bring cases against companies and people that violate the law." source ftc.gov

And honestly he was likely putting up with the pranks because he had a crush on her.
@@ebonshade In other words, he was only friends with her cause he wanted to sleep with her
@@1985toyotacamry Exactly, especially since he specifically asked "are you being serious?" and she answered Yes, negating her excuse of "he knew I wasn't serious".
@@sonamy1231000 dont know how you got that people can be friends then their feelings changed. I was friends with two of my exes one I developed feelings for and the other she developed feelings for me. It happens. I never wanted to sleep with any of them but as we.got closer over 6 or 7 years in both cases and things change.
The problem with the prank one is that she mentioned his confession first. If she just said “do you want a kiss” and gave him the Hershey’s kiss it wouldn’t have been nearly as damaging.
The "kiss prank" story was like something from a high school movie with the girl as the bully. The only thing missing was a camera so she could laugh at it later. Just no empathy there. He probably joked around with her because he liked her in the first place.
"Pretty sure he forgot about that by right now"
Really dude
I swear to god if something like this happens to me I will never forgive you for what you did and forgive myself for falling in love with you
True if anything he dodge a bullet
Godless Toyota she said herself, she never took anything seriously. Whose to say she wouldn’t take a relationship seriously as well.
If he wanted to be supportive of his brother, he would've invited his girlfriend on every family event and backup his brother from his parents so that someday it would change the girls parents minds.. That's how it works.. I think 🤔
“Let me get this straight, your mom died 6 months ago and your dad’s wife is 7 months pregnant?” No, their mom died 3-ish years ago, which was mentioned pretty early on in the story. Their dad married his new wife 6 months after their mom died, and then their sister had the party 3-ish years later.
I think the death 3 years ago was actually the first line.
Yeah Geoman265 is correct
For the first story with the honeymoon: To be blunt, wanna know what you do? Have the single loudest passionate hugging ever and make sure its 2 AM and it wakes them TF up. Its YOUR honeymoon. Not theirs.
I feel so bad for the guy in the Valentine prank story. She shattered that poor guys heart. It's concerning that she can't see what she did wrong.
She was so sure he didn't mind her joking about it even though she had been told to knock it off. I'm sure he did mind but was too good natured to confront her. She should have been able to read her surrounding better. Or, of she was curious, at least read the signs and just ask someone close to him in private.
"I like you"
"I like you too, lets kiss"
"really?"
"nah"
I feel so sorry about the overweight dude. He's obviously so insecure and awkward about his weight while OP ist just super oblivious to his feelings. He defended OP to make it less awkward and the little jokes probably get to him as well.
I don't think he necessarily feels insecure. If he had some accident that prevents him from training, it's sad, but not the end of the world. He moved on, he gained some weight, but his friends stayed with him. OP is Major A-hole for constantly riding him, even if it's just for fun. So what, that he's not as fit, as the rest of the group? Is it so important to be the same as others? And how can you ask "what happened?" when someone gained weight? It's NOT THAT BIG DEAL!
I think this is a clear case of it really depending where you're from (country, culture, environment etc), i know alot of ppl (probably including myself) who would ask the same exact question then and there, just out of pure intrest for the person and the story.
@@Jasper_S Yeah couldn't agree more. Sure the jokes might be a tad out of touch if the guy isn't one to make fun of it himself but asking what happened to someone somewhat close to you when you learn they had big life changes is pretty normal, though it might be inconsiderate to do it in a group discussion as the root of this kind of change can be pretty personnal. If he doesn't want to talk about it he can just answer that "nothing happened" or that he doesn't want to talk about it but it's not others business to intervene and try shame someone who asked a question seemingly out of real interest and care and not just out of malice. We don't all know each other's lives and what is or isn't a sensitive topic.
I was pranked by a crush I confessed my feelings to - worse than the 'kiss prank' but one thing I learnt:
Pranks that don't cause physical harm, aren't harmless.

Woah that was so rude, you can’t just go up to someone and say “what went wrong? Why are you so fat?” You completely humiliated him!
Honestly, that’s what I would think and want to ask. I’m just curious... but I also am somewhat on the autistic spectrum so, maybe that’s why I have no tact. 😅
@@ariaborealis2701 I’m with you on that! As a friend I’d be interested to know what happened to cause the transformation. I’m not trying to be rude or anything. I am also on the spectrum
@@ariaborealis2701 neurotypicals value emotions over facts (I’m sure you already know this). So asking why someone is fat to them means “How lazy are you?” “Why do you look so bad?” etc. That’s because fat isn’t an objective term to a lot of people. They can’t accept circumstances as they are so the word has a negative connotation. If you ever find yourself in a situation like OP, say, “You look so different. Why the change?” Or something like that. The focus isn’t on the weight but on the change. Essentially the same meaning but a huge difference to neurotypicals.
for being a fat kid myself i feel its okay to do that as long as if its your friend and you know they are okay with it and if they specifically say you have crossed a line apologize
There are often medical reasons behind sudden weight gain. E.g. an eating disorder, or simply medication that causes someone to gain weight. It's not your business to enquire about friends medical information (like weight). The person should have realized they were crossing a line when the other friends told them not to make jokes. They could know that is was hurting the guy and he was just covering up that hurt so he didn't get called a "snowflake" as people like this who belittle others tend to respond if the other tells them they hurt their feelings.
Rslash: *claims to be the expert of identifying entitled Karens*
Me: yay, an online class that is actually enjoyable. Time to binge
You’ll know you’ve succeeded when your brain has absorbed in the Karen voice.
This is the fun class? I would like to apply for this class instead.
yeah, for the prescription, it is absolutely ilegal to refuse to provide a custoimer their prescription. They do not have to give the Pupilary distance, but the remainder, you have a right to your medical information - just like if you asked any doctor for a copy of your files with them. it's YOUR information.
Was just about to write this exact sentence. I learned this the hard way, with a typical Karen at the counter 😅
As someone who has had to wear glasses since 3 years old, the Optometrist story frustrates me to no end. For one, it's literally illegal to withhold medical information from a patient, and for another, ordering glasses online isn't a scam! In some cases, they're the only glasses out there that are vaguely affordable, especially if you're like me an have an expensive prescription type. I sincerely hope that the receptionist herself was the only PoS at the Optometrist and not representative of the entire location's shady ass business
Found this on Google about prescription 'a for eyeglasses "The Rule gives you the right to get your prescription from your eye doctor - whether you ask for it or not - at no extra charge. The doctor must give you your prescription for glasses at the end of your eye exam. The doctor can’t require you to pay an extra fee, buy eyeglasses or contact lenses, or sign a waiver or form in exchange for your prescription." Basically the company cannot do that
Ah yes the good old “if you’re family can’t accept my brother, then I don’t accept you” response. Such a natural and non-childish reaction to have... (sarcasm if it’s not obvious)
Spoonie_the_Rogue agreed
They want the girl to disown her family for being toxic because she associates with them at all. Even though it's painful enough fir her as it is trying to get him to be accepted his family should have been a break. Too bad they suffer from the same illness or worse.
Squirrel exactly. I feel for her. My husband’s family didn’t like me at first and I could tell how hard it was for him to be caught in the middle. I would never have made him choose between us and I would have been very upset with my family if they’d tried to ostracize him because of how his parents/family acted.
The Mark story makes me so mad she can't see how that is a butthole move. A lot of time when men say it's fine or shrug off comments its really not fine and hurts them. I really feel for Mark.
Ruffenღ Exactly. I’m kinda in Marks position. I gained wait after something happened and my depression worsened. I’ve gained a lot of weight. I get really self conscious but don’t say anything when people point it out. It’s humiliating.
She should of ask the question differently and privately if possible
@Gabrielle Boilard TBH as an Autistic person, if people tell me they’re fine but actually aren’t and think lesser of me for it, it’s kind of their fault. Granted, I don’t know if OP is Autistic, but if they were their reaction would be understandable.
@Gabrielle Boilard it seems that i'm the only one here that disagrees with everyone on the Mark issue. Is it wrong for you to see an earlier pic of a friend and see how different they look from how you have known them to ask what happened inbetween?
Everyone else knows the story and understand what's happened or why.... Op in that story didn't... so they asked and were put on the cross for it. that's like going to a friends house, sitting in the living room and everyone giving you a death glare because you didn't take off your shoes when no one told you that the floors were handed down from a loved dead uncle
To everyone else that knows what happened... it can look like a-hole move... but I haven't seen anyone here put themselves in the shoes of OP to get both sides. Asking what happened is a pretty hard and blunt way to ask " you looked so different back then..... was there something that happened inbetween then and the guy I know now?" That question might of lead to OP finding out what happened and everyone maybe not being assholes to OP.... but when you see an old Pic of a good friend that is night and day from who you have always knew them as.... the most direct way to find out is to ask " What happened?" as it's a bit of a shock to you to see the change and it's only natural to want to know the cause
From what I am getting... OP wasn't looking to play the part of an asshole and just wanting to the chain of events that everyone else but them knew. You can't be mad and punish someone for braking a rule in a game that they didn't even know they were a part of
@@OnyxDStone I fully agree, it is also important that Mark defended her saying it was okay, now we can of course always try and read everything into his statement between here and the sun, but reality is all we have to go by is his words, we have no idea if he was nervous, had tears in his eyes, was laughing about it, or completely neutral.
Furthermore, he kept on defending her even after his friends attacked her for it, so it sounds to me that his friends very much so overreacted in trying to protect him from something that while maybe unpleasant for him, wasn't so bad as to him not defending her over it. (but again we have no idea what he felt or thought at the time, all we know is she asked why her friend had changed so much after seeing an old picture of him and everyone getting really angry at her for it without her knowing why)
The Valentine's one made me fuming. I've had to reject friends before and I always feel like an awful person for it (thank the lord that they understood and we've stayed friends), and the fact that OP would use his romantic feelings to pull a prank on him on Valentine's day, which is the day people usually do romantic crap, is messed up and hurtful.
S1: NTA. OP’s in-laws are TTA for invading their privacy. It sounds like they are desperate to keep control over OP’s husband.
S2: NTA. The stewardess was unprofessional and the old dude was a hypocrite.
S3: NTA. They were definitely running a scam.
S4: TTA. That was super rude and OP took it too far.
S5: TTA. That was insensitive. And if she just left well enough alone, this shit storm wouldn’t have happened.
S6: TTA. Everyone is terrible. OP shouldn’t exclude his brother’s girlfriend just because of her shitty parents. And the relatives on all sides are no better.
S7: NTA. OP’s parents are TTA and should be ashamed of themselves for being selfish assholes. The stepmom is super insecure about any mention of OP’s mom like she is trying to compete with a dead woman. And the dad is a spineless bastard who never cared about his family.
Pretty much
What does TTA mean?
@@juicecoconutgun7264 not sure, but I think they mean YTA or Yes The A**hole
10:10 there are plenty of reasons why Mark was "out of shape" the traumatizing incident for one, which might have brought him to depression, and when you're depressed you lack the motivation to do anything, like going to the gym to keep his "amazing bone structure"
She sounds like the Stacy incels complain about.
I'm still not seeing what she did wrong. It seems to me that she was just interested why he looked so different. The friends acted like she was magically supposed to know he had a traumatic experience
@@lagle8
Just my thoughts. She was out of line for poking fun at his weight before, but when it was really only in a lighthearted manner, that can be forgiven. Asking what happened to him though, isn't out of line. The way she told the story it seems she asked out of genuine interest and care for him. You know, you need to know about the people you call friends and their history and sometimes the only way to accomplish that is to ask them. Nothing good can come from silencing the problem. At least now that she knows he has another friend who is mindful of his situation and can give him support. Yes, it's not a pleasant topic to bring up, but among friends it should be possible to talk about these things, otherwise it's not a friendship.
tOwOxic
The way the story was written, I could see op’s genuine interest, care and curiosity, and it’s true that by being friends, it is of the importance to know at least something about them. However, the way op worded her question was completely tactless.
No one’s not gonna feel humiliated when a person just flat out ask them “Oh my, how’d you get so fat?” in front of their friend’s in a public place. And then the lack of self awareness and the ability to read the people around her just made op seem like a terrible person.
@@lagle8 also the big reason is the fact the she doubles down without remorse, if someone feels offended by what you did don't say "there being too sensitive" that just makes you look like, well a butthole. Even if the offendee doesn't feel hurt your actions affect those around you and what they think of you, this goes back the the single best advice my father gave me "time and place, know your audience, and perception is reality" that last one fits this post generously, if you say something offensive and you don't thinks it's offensive, AND there are 4 or 5 who disagrees with you don't be beside yourself and simply apologize.
With the optometrist I believe what they were trying to do was flat out illegal. A prescription, to the best of my knowledge can be used any place I can fill it properly
not necessarily, it really depends on the terms of service. If the customer agrees to get checked out and use the prescription in a particular way, than that is a legitimate contract. The question is: did the person who needed the glasses read the contract or was at least informed before the checkup about the ToS.
I agree with you- I think it’s a law in most states that citizens have access to their medical records, which eye exams fall under since they not only check for medical conditions of the eye and optic nerve, but are also referred to when getting your driver’s license if you have especially poor vision.
The optometrist charging for a test that is a prescription for glasses cant be use elsewhere sounds really sketchy. I dont know the rules but I would definetly report it to whoever optometrist use for certification and see if its illegal and what legal actions to take but I'm positively sure they're unable to withhold that type of medical information. They could deny giving you medical info but they need to justify it why.
pruna blue pepper as someone who has had glasses since she was eight: no. They can’t withhold that. It is medical information and you are entitled to it legally. Now could he have handled it better? Yes. The way my family handles this if we want to shop around, we agree to look at the selection available and then just not find anything we like. Then ask for the prescription and look other places. So we have given them an opportunity, and just found it didn’t work out. But in no way were they allowed to withhold that. Straight up, that is a diagnosis of what your vision is and what is required to correct it. It would be like your doctor finding something wrong and then refusing to tell you what was wrong then when you asked for at least the medication he’s prescribing, him then saying “I can only give that is you go to x pharmacy.” Not permissible. You are allowed to know what is wrong with your eyes, to what extent, and how to correct it. And “terms of service” no. Any reputable doctor would not do this. Where have you been going that you have signed some bs like that? I’ve had 3 eye doctors since I was old enough to sign my own papers. Never once has that been anywhere in my forms.
@@AppleStrawberryLove yeah the terms of service to state something about denying the prescription and only be used there definetly sounds illegal. Unethical for sure but illegal.
“So, you’re trying to get my brother accepted by your family and it’s not working. I’m mad that it’s not working. So, to show my support I’m going to do THE EXACT SAME THING”
Regarding the wedding story:
That is the stupidest ultimatum I've heard of in recent memory. The Indian girlfriend's parents clearly don't care about the brother's family, as it seems they just ignore his existence entirely when they can. They don't care if the white-boy's family excludes their daughter from stuff, in fact they probably want it as it'll help their side of the argument about how the girlfriend shouldn't date the brother. How is excluding her going to make her family any less likely to exclude the brother? OP is extremely arrogant in how much sway he thinks his family has over her family, and the only thing to come out of it is this poor woman's feelings are hurt for no reason than both families in this argument are apparently full of hateful idiots. Two wrongs don't make a right, you don't stop discrimination with more discrimination.
Militaristic Wombat OP actually said that if the gf doesn’t disown her family, then she’s toxic. She said that she’s “not punishing the Indian gf. Just teaching her a lesson” and thinks that she knows what’s best for her brother by taking the gf out of the picture.
Edit:: people think this is me defending her. It is not. I’m clarifying why OP is a delusional piece of shit. I looked through the Reddit post, and OP is terrible. Was just giving more info.
Terra_the _Nightingale That is stupid and still doesn’t justify OP’s decision in excluding her from the family. It’s not her fault that her family is racist and trash. She’s already been having a tough time with her own family. She doesn’t need another family making her life more difficult.
Nerdy Jeremy I never said it did? I was clarifying how much worse OP actually is
@Militaristic Wombat That's very well said.
Nerdy Jeremy oh no I wasn’t trying to answer any question, I was just giving more info on the reddit post since I managed to look through it and see how deep OP’s delusion goes
I work in a hospital and I think that the optometrist story is DEFINITELY a hippa violation lmao.
He confessed his crush to you, its the most important part of his life, he was at his most vulnerable stage. whatever you say will stay with him for the rest of his life. Just because you pranked each other back then that doesnt mean that you can play with someone who is serious with his feelings especially on valentines day whwre people express their love. Never forget that pranks has its own limitations.
She is the trashiest type of person you could fall for. Notice how through out her story, she kept making excuses, but all of them are based on her own assumption, made in favor of herself without any logic behind the assumption.

I love the third story, he had no reason to give up his seat, especially if he was tired and needed that extra space since he was tall, true the other guy should have given up his seat if he was gonna be hypocritical to the guy about it, and stewardess should have been professional about asking him, honestly I don’t get why she didn’t ask the other guy when he said no
I agree, but wanted to point out that the OP in that story was female.

My child can't stand for one station and I am really tired.." this kid was a teenager, a freaking teenager... I was 18 at that moment and my friend was looking younger than that kid... I told her that I and my friend were also tired and over there are free seats. She started screaming at me, I was really shocked, this bus was almost half empty, why did she wanted ours seats ? ..

@@DarkHeartTheEmo maybe ask once, but when everybody else says it's mean, maybe just accept that you might have misjudged the situation. I always believe that "if you think the whole world is wrong because no one agrees with you, maybe it really is you that's wrong." And the fact that she said "i often tease him about his weight, and the others tell me not to, but it's fine" just makes me think it is absolutely not fine, and this woman is just oblivious to the fact she's hurting the guy's feelings. And the fact that it's a RECURRING issue makes me think she actually has a genuine problem with his weight, but disguises it as a joke.

i am a massive social introvert, so i already have low self esteem when talking, better yet confessing to a crush. getting rejected basically splits the self esteem in half. the kiss joke would divide it even further, basically killing it entirely. i also use 1 word answers to people that i dislike. the kiss joke is not a joke, jokes are funny. it's as if you see someone crying about talking about her dad's death and someone starts laughing. it kills their emotion and in some cases they act like a different person. especially if their emotions are genuine.

When someone gifts you something they are forfeiting all ownership of it, so you can do with it as you please, i've had to remind family that buy me gifts for birthdays that they can't claim the item as their's cause "they bought it".
Yeah. I mean, there are some gifts that can be shared by everyone involved, escpecially for poor families, but others absolutely cannot. There are NO gifts in which the gifter has full responsibility for.

When I was in Year 7, a boy asked me out. I was surprised as I didn't think myself worthy of any attention from boys... and was very young and didn't know what to do with a boyfriend. However, the boy was cute and I was flattered, thinking maybe it would be a good thing to learn with him as he seemed nice. Instantly, he said 'sike!' and crushed me. I didn't trust guys at all after that and it took until university for me to realise I actually did have some charm about me. That was from a boy I didn't know very well. When I saw where that story was going, I couldn't believe it. You don't do that to a friend, 'prank' or not. It's horrible. I'd 5/5 the one for assholeness based on my own experiences alone.
For the wedding one, funny how their 'support' makes them as bad as the other family and completely disregards the brother's feelings. If I was the brother, I would not be going to that wedding.
Mcyxof I read that story and turns out, OP thinks the the gf should disown her family to prove herself to her and her brother.
I had something very similar happen when I was around 14. I had this crush on a boy. The boy was part of my sisters friendgroup at that time so he came over to our place once in a while. I think I even told my sister about the crush previously (not sure though) but she could clearly tell as the next time her friends came over, she asked me if had a crush on him, while he was there. I got red and stuttered that I didn't. That was that until, about an hour later, the boy came up to me and told me he liked me, asked if I liked him too because he wanted to be my boyfriend (you can clearly see where this is headed). I felt so happy and said 'yes!' immediately. I heard my sister yell 'See! I told you she had a crush on you!!!) while he walked away laughing. They were all laughing at me. That killed me. I get along with my sister now. She doesn't even remember that happened. But something like that just sticks to you
"He still hasn't talked to me at all. Pretty sure he's forgotten about it." That makes sense
The kiss prank is like the trashiest people in the existence, like sly.
Some guys did that to me at work, one guy was known to be pretty chill and nice and cracked jokes so most didn't mind the other was the jobs. . .let's say space filler ya know the kind of guy trying to hide to not work, brag about how big he will be in life all that jazz. And everyone at work knows i've been with my current bf/fiance for 9 years so the funny one asked and I said nah and he pulled out a kisses candy I told him if he wants some real kisses get better candy. We laughed and even the manager laughed, the other guy who I find annoying asked I told him "Not even if I was single and you paid me." everyone found that funny that one chill guy did get a kiss from one chick and from the manager lol that was funny to watch.

When the first post came up, I thought the OP ran away on their honeymoon by themselves and left their significant other alone. Glad to know that wasn't the case.
This is like a competition of OPs who can be the least self-aware. "My friend hasn't spoken to me once since I 'pranked' him, that probably means he's forgotten all about it right?"

Karen and Dad: "You can't kick us out, we're your parents and we are FAAAAAMILY!"
OP: "Yes I can. I *OWN* the house."
Karen and Dad: *Surprised Pikachu Face*
the dad probably know if it was in the mom will^^'
For those here after it got edited; I forgot the original :]
In the last story, mother passed away 3years ago and father remarried 6months after her death.

@@whyamihere1563 No the story is pretty recent which is pretty famous. Last time I check she's giving them a one month packing before moving out.

Oh, I've used the Hershy's kiss line before on V-day... To my significant other on our first V-day as an official couple... And then we shared real smooches after the chuckles and nomming of chocolates. Yeah... You don't do that to someone who you know has it bad for you, but that you aren't interested in. That's just cruel.
