So did Dusty just miss the snide remark about how she didn’t earn her scholarship "she just wrote a letter" or the fact the daughter has both kicked a dog and shaken a box with a live animal in it and thinks it's not a big deal? She's 8 not 3. He also said in the comments that GF is very hands-on and has actively protected his daughter. So I'm guessing GF is always the bad guy because OP only ever wants to be the fun parent.
I'm surprised that no one mentioned in story 2 that OP says her husband came out of the bedroom "10 minutes later". Like, lady, I'm sorry, what? You said you wanted a divorce, you saw his face, saw he went to the bedroom, and you just... never intervened? For 10 mins? The fuck?
Oh wow. I was TOTALLY surprised by Dusty's response to story 3. It sounds like OPs daughter is a bit of a monster, based on the limited info provided. Kicking animals and shaking a box with a live bird inside is NOT normal, even for a kid! Obviously, she was old enough that the pet store lady thought it appropriate to hand her the box. Isn't she 8 years old? A kid should know better by 3 years old! IDK, the gf sounds like she's not the greatest either, but OP definitely sounds like the bigger AH to me.
Thank you. I was quite surprised with Dusty's opinion. This man doesn't parent his child so the gf gad some valid concerns. And he said her pets were inconvenience, that sort of explains why he didn't react to his child's behaviour
Me too! Totally team GF on that one, run girl and don't look back! The way they have totally different views on how to spend money is the biggest red flag (and the way OP is spoiling his daughter to compensate for the broken relationship with his ex is red flag 2)
That crazy ex needs her head examined 😂. He doesn't owe you a conversation, he didn't owe you anything. If you are such a "catch," you will have no problem finding someone else. This poor man and his wife just want peace. Leave them the hell alone. She sounds dangerous.
Story 1- If my husband said that to me, it would have been the same. Hurting your loved one isn't a joke. I mean, I couldn't even FORCE those words to come out my mouth. Story 2- I don't think girlfriend is asking too much, I think she's asking in the wrong way. He doesn't need to be spoiling the child because her mom sucks. I think those 2 need to just call it. Story 3- i have nothing. PURE DELULU. Story 4- dudes ridiculous. Story 5- EFFF THAT BRIDEZILLA! Take her to Judge Judy!!!!
Story 2- Honestly, couples joke about different things. The key here is she KNEW he wouldn't like this joke yet did it anyway. And the so called "friends" who pressured her into doing it are throwing their hands up and not helping and it shows their true colors. OP messed up. My husband and I joke about a lot of things. I often joke I'll sleep on the couch because his reply is he'll sleep on the floor [we never sleep apart save for work since he's army] but that's it. I'd never joke about divorce because like Dusty said, why would you do that to someone you love?
I feel like the “friends” were jealous of her healthy marriage and sabotaging it by pressuring the “joke” but op is definitely TA I would never risk my relationship
I think there’s a reason why the kid and Mom don’t get along. Maybe Mom is more of a discipline area and doesn’t let her daughter abuse animals and daddy is the fun parent that loves to spoil his daughter and Mom is more of the no you have to earn it Because there’s no excuse unless the animal is attacking you to hurt an animal to yank it to kick animals the little girl sounds like a brat and I think Dad is the bigger ah. have to disagree with you on this one daddy to do something about his daughter. It’s not about flipping a switch but punishing them when they abuse animals instead of making excuses they’re just kids because eventually she’s not going to be a kid no more she’s going to grow up, thinking it’s OK to abuse animals.
Story 2....Ma'am needs to cut contact to her "friends". Divorce, Miscarriages, Breaking up, Death, Pregnacy, etc are things you DO NOT JOKE/PRANK people with these things. Her "friends" are pathetic excuses for women, to do that is NOT okay. Wife needs to grow up and act like an adult, she's not a child. Accept the consequences she did this and she needs to be single for awhile til she can be an actual wife. If it was me, I would have the same reaction as him. You don't want to be with me anymore, fine I'll go. I will NOT beg you to stay where you don't want to be. It would hurt me to do, however, I will not stay with someone like her.
I used to gaslight my husband when we were fighting taking the TV Remote to work with me , moving his keys , or his dip around the house acting like he must be losing his mind because he keeps misplacing everything, he died almost 15 years ago, I loved him but, I don’t feel bad, it was hilarious 😉

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE when Candy gets heated and drops the f-bombs. She is always right, and always expresses herself like the goddess she is!

I don't get what difference that makes. Unless you are suggesting that she shouldn't let her husband out of her sight/control for 10 min.
For the "I want a divorce" story, peer pressure is absolutely not cool. Your friends don't know how your husband would react.

totally agree. Was about to say this. I feel like Dad is not just spoiling her with toys, but also lets her do whatever.

You're not alone thinking this! I would have been upset if I were the gf. The 8-year-old isn't to blame regardless, it's on the dad; but
Me too! Totally team GF on that one, run girl and don't look back! The way they have totally different views on how to spend money is the biggest red flag (and the way OP is spoiling his daughter to compensate for the broken relationship with his ex is red flag 2)
Same! I swear OP is the bigger asconaunt, this is unfair.
you don't typically get graced with crazy ex stories from the crazy ex

Fafo I hope your friends are great with you from now on
Okay but did she *actually have a heart attack?

23:16 "Nothing his wife has that I don't".. Well expected his ring and last name 😂🫳🎤

Making someone feel crazy is evil behavior. I'm glad he's free of you.
Mrs. Thunder. I love the word fat, especially when used before the word baby. Cause ain't nothing cuter than fat babies and all their fat rolls! ❤
