WIFE REFUSES TO HELP HUSBAND PAY LOAN, HUSBAND STOP PAYING FOR HER STUFF

0

My wife is a stay at home mom for our 2 kids and I work full-time as the sole income provider for the family. I am slowly working on paying back my student loans.

My wife recently received a relatively large inheritance, about 10x the number of my student loans.

A month after everything regarding the inheritance was settled, I talked with my wife about using the inheritance to pay off my loans. She refused to give me any of the money and said the inheritance belongs only to her. I told her that, yes, legally that’s true but we are a family and we should share our resources to make our burdens easier.

She disagreed and said my student loans pre-date our marriage and are my sole responsibility.

I felt like she was being unfair to our relationship and to us as a family, so the next day I told her that if she was not going to help me pay off her student loans, now that she has money I will not be paying for any expense that is solely hers (like clothes, eating out, flights, makeup, spas, new phone, etc.).

Instead, I will be putting that money towards my loans to pay them back faster. She accused me of being controlling with money and abusing my position as the income-earner but I don’t see why I should be responsible for all that when she has her own money now?

Here are what netizens think:

  • Sometimes woman want an emergency fund. Especially if their husband is controlling, or other red flags.
  • I agree with you. It’s been made clear to him by his wife that his debt is his debt and that he’s on his own — and of course he wants to clear it off as soon as possible. And if that means putting an extra $500 towards it instead of his wife’s non-necessities, which she can now afford herself — then it is perfectly reasonable for him to do so.
  • But the money he’s putting into the household is essentially paying her in a way for childcare, cooking and cleaning, that’s how it works when one parent stays home.

GUY GOES SIAM DIU, SEES HIS FATHER DRINKING WITH SIAMBU, HANG FLOWER

0

A netizen shared a story about how he went to a Thai disco with his friends and saw his father inside, drinking with a siambu.

Here is the story

I went *club name redacted* with my friends at *location redacted* a few weeks ago to celebrate my one of my friend’s birthday.

We ordered about 10 towers for the 4 of us and planned to have a really good time, anyway all 4 of us were single and we were trying to see if we could hook up with a siambu at the disco.

We were about 6 towers in, and I had drank probably the most because one of my friends was spending the whole night trying to siam drinks.

Needless to say, I was floating a little bit already.

I looked around trying to check out the siambus and i glanced across a table that was probably 5 tables across from our table.

I saw my dad.

He was drinking with a siambu and I thought I saw wrong, so I stumbled across to his table to confirm and yep, it was indeed him.

Just for a little bit of context, my parents have what I thought was a happy marriage and I always thought they loved each other.

I asked him what he was doing there, and he just said he was unwinding after work. I even saw him hanging $100 flower for the siambu that was drinking at his table.

He warned me not to say anything to my mother, which of course I kept the secret.

Anyway the night went on and I figured screw it (plus i was also pretty drunk), so I asked my dad and his siambu to join us at our table.

We even asked his siambu to introduce some girls and my friend even managed to bring her back to a hotel.

They have been texting almost every day ever since.

What a night huh?

Editor’s note: Never jio your mother to come along next time also?

MAN GETS RASH AFTER GOING BANGKOK SOI COWBOY & “RAWS” THE GIRL

0

A netizen recently shared a story after travelling to Bangkok and doing something ridiculous in the heat of the moment.

Here is the story:

I was travelling with a friend who enjoys the red lights but does not enjoy drinking. I was having a swell time drinking as it was much cheaper in Thailand than in Singapore.

So my friend who was very hungry decided to go to Soi Cowboy to find the girl of his dreams…

There were two girls sitting with us and I didn’t mind buying a drink and chatting casually. My friend on the other hand is all about his “hands”. He stretches into the woman’s clothes and does what many men enjoy.

I’m no saint, I just don’t find them attractive.

Soon after the girl touched him back he was like a dog in heat and starts to strike a deal with the woman, the woman wanted 3,000 baht + 500 bar fine for the “shot”. My friend turned to me and asked me to negotiate with the woman as I could speak Thai.

I managed to get the price down to 2,500 baht.

After drinking we returned to our room and he began to do his “job” while I sat in the living room and continued to drink my beer.

After a couple of beers, my friend was out of the room and told me that the girl got drunk and got “on him” before he had a chance to wear the magical “umbrella”.

I asked if he stopped he said he was “in heat” like the mating season of some wild animal and he could not stop.

The day after he started to develop a rash around his neck and he insist that his “clothes” are dirty and its not some diseases.

I told him to go see a doctor if the symptoms persist.

THIEF WRAPS HEAD IN PLASTIC BAG & BREAKS INTO COFFEESHOP TO STEAL MONEY, ARRESTED

A thief had the ingenious idea of wrapping his head with a plastic bag to hide his identity while breaking into a coffee shop and stealing from the cashier.

He made off with more than $700 and a mobile phone, but was arrested later that same day.

The incident happened on 28 May at about 2am, at a coffee shop located along Boon Tiong Road, according to Shin Min Daily News.

One of the stallholders spoke to SMDN and said that the drinks stall owner opened for business at about 5.30am and found the place in a mess.

He then suspected that a burglary had taken place and called the police, as well as alerting the other 6 stall owners who discovered that their stalls had also been burgled.

The suspect was seen in CCTV footage cutting the wires attached to the cashiers and leaving the coffeeshop with 5 cash registers.

Through ground enquiries and the use of police camera images, a 55-year-old man was later arrested for his suspected involvement in the case.

He was charged on Monday with housebreaking and theft.

Here is the police’s statement

The Police have arrested a 55-year-old man for his suspected involvement in a case of housebreaking and theft.

On 28 May 2022 at 5.55 am, the Police received a report that a coffeeshop along Boon Tiong Road was broken into. Five cash register machines with cash amounting to about $700 and a mobile phone, were purportedly stolen.

Through ground enquiries and with the aid of images from Police cameras, officers from Central Police Division established the identity of the man and arrested him on the same day of the reported crime. One mobile phone was also recovered from the man.

The man will be charged in court on 30 May 2022 with housebreaking and theft under Section 451 of the Penal Code 1871. The offence carries an imprisonment for a term up to 10 years and a fine.

The Police would like to advise all property owners to adopt the following crime prevention measures:

  • Secure all doors, roller shutters, windows and other openings with good quality grilles and closed-shackled padlocks when leaving your premises unattended;
  • Install a burglar alarm, motion sensor light and/or CCTVs, to cover the access points into your premises. Ensure that they are tested periodically and in good working condition; and
  • Refrain from keeping large sums of cash in your premises

FEMALE FRIEND GOT DRUNK, TRIED TO “EAT ME” AND CONFESSED

0

I’m a guy so my best female friend and I have had some relationship problems in the past, but this might have been the tipping point for me.

We met when we were 15 and I knew that she was in love with me for a while, she asked me out and I said no, after that her feelings past (or so I thought) we remained friends. When we were 16 we became best friends and that was kind of the high point of our friendship.

When we were 21 is kind of when the problems started brewing. She had a very difficult time, she became kind of overprotective and possesive for a while. When I did something she thought was risky, she would call me a ton of times. When I started dating my girlfriend at the time, she said things to the effect of be careful she might be using me, she had a full on mental breakdown at a party when I told her I had S with my girlfriend because she didn’t trust her, she also told me that one of my friends who I was getting closer to might be using me. At one point she burned bridges with a lot of our friends, so I was one of the few she had left. Once we were on a festival and we shared a bed and she would get closer than was appropriate and that I was comfortable with, though I never said anything. We didn’t hang much for a few months after all that.

That brings us to this year, she seemd to have really grown alot and got herself together, she got herself some new friends. I kept myself at a little bit of a distance from her so that our relationship would flow back into healthier waters, but she really seemd alot better and I was super happy for her because I really did care about her.

Drunk

This last week, however, we had our last day of school and we all bought booze and went drinking in this park nearby. She got super super wasted fast and confessed to me that she had a boyfriend and I was happy for her. She then put her head on my lap which I was comfortable with.

Then she started saying how his boylfriend and me are the two most important men in her life and she started kissing my thigh, like light pecks on my thigh, but alot of them and I got very uncomfortable very quickly. I then got up and told her I was going to talk to some other friends and she begged me stay a few more minutes and then I did while she drunkely rambles and at one point asks me If she is a bad girlfriend.

I walked away later, 20 minutes pass and she’s throwing up for a third time and I decide i really need to take her home. We go to the edge of park, I order her a grab and we sit on a bench, she then puts her head on my shoulder which was fine, but then she kisses my neck. I kind of freeze in shock and thankfully the grab arrives. I get her in there and go back to the party. The next day I send her a text that she made me uncomfortable and she thought it was because she told me she had a boyfriend.

Don’t get me wrong, I really care about her and we’ve known each other for a long time and we have had some truly great times together, but this might have been the last straw for me. I gave her a second chance once before and I don’t know if I could do it again.

I’m confused and kind of sad and dont really know what to do now about her. Any and all advice appreciated.

0

A woman who visit a McDonald’s outlet at JCube, commended a McDonald’s employee for going the extra mile to help her when she was facing difficulties placing orders.

She had posted her commendation onto McDonald’s Facebook page.

Here is what she said

I would like to take this apportunity to compliment Yuvan working at Mcdonalds Singapore at Jcube Outlet.

I had encountered some problems trying to order on the ekiosk counters as I didn’t know how to imput add-on extra order.

He was actually outside the counter helping Aunty at the ice cream counter. He assisted me and teach me how to use the ekiosk and even make sure that l understand so l can do it correctly next time.

He took the payment slip and brought me to the counter to make payment.

I’m your regular customer and have been watching him the way he serve customers. He is very friendly and approachable and willing to take the extra mile in helping his colleaques as well as customers.

You can see him amost everywhere where help is needed. In a competitive market you need to do everything you can to be one step ahead of your competition.

This is where quality customer service and doing that little bit extra will help you to succeed. Yuvan is one such example and customers always remember exceptional service.

DIOR SALESMAN LOOKED DOWN ON GIRL’S MUM, SO SHE GAVE THE SALES TO HIS COLLEAGUE

A netizen, Amjea, posted a video onto her TikTok account, @nahtyourbby, claiming that her mother was allegedly disrespected by a Dior salesperson while they were on holiday in Italy.

The salesperson had allegedly refused to show her mother the item that she was looking for and had apparently ignored her.

The salesperson then apparently went to serve another customer instead.

Her mother then told her what happened and Amjea then insisted that they went back to the store, and they then sought the assistance of another salesperson instead.

The other salesperson was described as being really nice and offered them coffee and water.

They then picked out the items that her mother wanted to buy and the salesperson then told them that they could return later to pick them up.

They mother and daughter then went for lunch as Amjea continued to communicate with the salesperson over text and she agreed to buy some more items.

When she returned to the store to collect and pay for the goods, the salesperson who had ignored the girl’s mother, then told the current salesperson “congratulations” sarcastically, seemingly annoyed that he had missed out on the commission.

@nahtyourbby Don’t let anyone disrespect your mom #dior #diorsaddlebag #commission #fumoney ♬ Break My Stride – Chateau Pop

GIRL SAID THAT HAPPIEST DAY OF HER LIFE WAS THE DAY HER FATHER DIED

0

Wouldn’t dare to say this in person, but screw it. The happiest day of my life was the day my dad died
I am so happy he is gone and will never hurt me again, and for many years have had no outlet to express these feelings because nobody I grew up with (save maybe a couple people here or there who witnessed his temper firsthand) would ever believe me.

To them, he was a pillar of morality and a shining example of our community. When he died his funeral was packed out, with a bunch of people talking about how much he affected their lives and what a stand-up guy he was.

He was not. That monster beat me every day for years behind closed doors. He beat me until my legs and arms were raw, screaming in my face the whole time and hurling insults at me, telling me how horrible of a child I was, calling me a stupid brat and saying I wasn’t good for anything except prison. This started when I was a toddler and continued until he kicked the bucket when I was 14. Not once during that span of time did he ever let up. I was that sick psychopath’s punching bag so he could relieve his stress and resentment.

They don’t know about him force feeding me white vinegar, apple cider vinegar, and soap as punishment for the most inane, innocent childhood mistakes and when I vomited, forcing me to drink them again. They don’t know about how many times he screamed so loudly in my face my ears rang about how much of a cash drain I was, how I was the reason the family didn’t have any money and how I taxed their financial situation by being born and how all I am is a leech and a mooch off of him. They don’t know how many injuries I got, from him or in general, how many times I was sick or hurt and he refused to take me to the doctor or get me any medical care whatsoever, instead just laughing at me.

I guess I just wasn’t good enough for him. I wasn’t the “ideal” child like my sister. She failed a test, he shrugged and told her good job for trying. I got under a 90 and got the belt. Every time. When I would cry about the favoritism he would belt me more. I was gaslit for so many years regarding this and it was only when I was an adult that my extended family all confirmed that yes, she did receive disgusting preferential treatment and they all saw it as well.

The night before he died he was verbally attacking me like usual, telling me I was out of control and an ungrateful piece of crap and useless. He hadn’t belted me in probably a couple weeks because the last time he’d tried, I screamed back at him instead of just enduring it. He’d beat me because I hadn’t cleaned up after my sister like he demanded me to. I hadn’t washed her dishes and cleaned her area after she left the room looking like a hoarders episode. So he beat me and I didn’t say silent that time. I screamed and told him he was insane and that I would never clean up after my sister again and struggled and resisted instead of just taking it. I planned to yank the belt from him and hit him back the very next time he came for me, but it never happened because he died.

And I was so happy. So overjoyed that when my mom called with the news, I just cried out with relief while my sister went catatonic and was never the same. She was the only one he’d hugged and said “I love you” to the night before. No one else. Certainly not me.

everyone came out for the funeral. His coworkers, old buddies, randos I’d never seen before in my life who claimed to have loved him (?) I plastered on a sad face because if they knew how happy I was I’d have just gotten more mistreatment and judgment. But I was. I was so happy.

IIn the years after his death, my hair and nails started to grow in healthy, my skin cleared up, I lost weight, I began figuring out how to make friends and started living and thriving independently. I am, even today, absolutely mentally wrecked. But still so, so happy.

Once I was sitting down with a friend maybe a year after he passed and something came over me then, where I felt like I had to tell her what he was really like and what he did behind closed doors.

“But your dad was such an angel! No way he really did that.”

I never told anyone else ever again, until now.
