I seriously doubt I’m one of the most judgmental people who posts here. I call out people for being jerks. And I tell most to relax, they’re making a bigger deal out of something than needs be. You’re the one making this a thing BGM. And I’m definitely consistent in my posts and my viewpoints.
“The LW flat-out said she “slept with 10+ men … I don’t judge her for that, but some of them are married.” That seems clear to me.”
By mentioning the number, you are, in fact, judging her based on how many men she’s slept with. You might claim you aren’t, but you really are, otherwise why mention it? What does it add to the story? It’s like someone making a mean comment then following it up with “I’m only joking.”
If this LW’s only concern was truly with her friend sleeping with married men, then that’s all the letter needed to be about.
10 men, two of which were married (and I did agree with that being wrong). That’s not multiple married men.
It’s funny how most of the time you rail against the prudes, bgm, but as soon as a woman has sex with a few different people you’re questioning her morals?? There’s absolutely no reason to mention number unless you’re judging and you want others to judge. All the LW had to say is her friend is sleeping with two married men. That’s it. And that’s what I was calling out.
I’m with ele4phant on this one. At first read, I thought WOW… they are so taking advantage of Alea. Yikes! But with every additional response, I think that ele4phant is spot on w/ the mix of oblivious friends w/ someone who is overly accommodating friend. Of course they’re going to keep asking if she keeps saying yes!!
LW, set boundaries and speak up for yourself.
I’m a people pleaser. I’ll always be a people pleaser. It’s a struggle, but I have learned that I need to look out for myself.
Remember, NO is a complete sentence. You don’t need to offer an explanation.
Chicago had been hot and gross too. Linen has been welcomed! I think I want the mustard color next @cleopatra_30. And maybe chambray.
I ordered some of the Old Navy linen pants and am wearing them for the first time today. LOVE!!!! I have the myrrh. I want in other colors now. However, my body type is pretty straight and narrow.
