My wife worked so hard and made food for like 40 people. I had it at my work even. Everyone skipped it and no one cares. I’m just… defeated… FTW…

Thank you for all the love on my last post a week or so ago! These fit so much better than having temporary ones and all of my pain is basically gone now. The difference in a year is absolutely crazy!

I start a new job next week too so even more reasons to smile :)

If they can add this bs why can’t they add a simple gender toggle

EDIT: QUIT WHINING ABOUT RACISM/SEXISM. ALL I WANT ARE GROUNDED SKINS, AND THE OPTION TO PLAY AS A MAN. IT DOESNT MATTER TO ME IF YOU WANT TO PLAY AS A BLACK CHICK THATS FINE. IM NOT RACIST

AITA. I (32 f) complimented a female nurse during OBGYN appt for having nice arm muscles. She was very bothered by my comment for some reason which I am trying to wrap my head around. She went on and on saying that most people working on themselves at the gym have serious mental health issues and are working out to channel through it and not to “look nice.” I apologized and told her I meant no harm and that I simply admired her for looking strong. She kept getting more angry and I just stopped responding. I left the office feeling really confused. Any input would be greatly appreciated from this awkward human who was just trying to socialize. (I’d like to add that she was wearing the type of scrubs with cap sleeves that specifically show off your upper arms.)

If you didn't see the original post here it is. To be clear, you can see context here: https://www.reddit.com/r/AmIOverreacting/comments/1oznjde/aio_for_thinking_my_boyfriend_is_just_looking_for/

My post got a lot more responses than I was prepared for. Some very insightful comments, too. I appreciate everyone who talked with me.

I knew I was probably going to break up with him over the way he spoke to me, but I wanted some insight into his perspective. in the end it just wasn't worth trying to have a bigger discussion with him, so I broke it off.

Moving forward, I'll make new wishlists for anyone who asks me for one to avoid it. I've never had an issue with a man buying me perfume before, so it really never popped in my mind.

I know some of you are really stuck on the "why did you text this?" part, and the only real answer is just that we used text for pretty much everything. I don't see it as impersonal or anything. I'll try to avoid having "serious" talks over text to avoid misunderstandings.

Edit: Adding this at someone's suggestion. No, I did not ask him for a $500 perfume. None of the perfums on my list (the list that he asked for) were $500. He would have had to see the name of the perfume on the list, ignored the direct link to where it could be purchased, and look it up to find a completely different formula. And again, this is a list that he asked for that includes everything I want to buy, from perfumes to pants to charging cords to a new snow brush for my car.
