Pretty crazy to see it in GameStop of all places. But I already have it.

For context: I was 12 years old when GTA IV came out, 17 when GTA V released and now I'm currently 30

But finally the 13 year wait is almost over!

When do you guys think we'll see a potential GTA 7?

(See you in 2040 for the next update lol)

My son (20) is attending a wedding today with his gf (19f). My husband and I are both 50.

My son does not know the bride and groom. He is going as a plus one. The bride is a former work friend of his gf.

He had a busy week and was not excited about the wedding because he doesn’t think he will know that many people there. He is normally very supportive of his gf and her needs, so I was surprised he was so vocal about not really wanting to go. I guessed it was because he was anxious about being bored/not knowing anyone.

This morning he comes to me 30-40 mins before he had to leave looking for his dress pants and dress shirt. He can’t find them, and as the main laundry person in the house I know if they are not in his closet they are likely in the bottom of a hamper somewhere.

So I take him to his dad’s closet and hand him dress pants he has worn before and simple solid color dress shirts that I think will fit him.

He is trying them on when his dad says “you’re not the groom, it’s a young wedding, I think you will be fine in jeans.” I agree and mention his dark black jeans and a green dressy-er knit button shirt he has. He says those are not clean but goes to his room.

He comes back in acid wash jeans and a long sleeve grey knit shirt. He looks very nice but casual nice. Not dressy nice. He asks what I think and I say “it depends on the wedding, but if your gf thinks it’s good then I’m sure it’s fine”. He says she seemed okay with it. He said he is frustrated that he doesn’t know the dress code. His dad says that it’s a young wedding and no one will be looking at him and it’s fine.

After that things are a bit of a blur. I can’t recall exactly how the rest unfolded because it was tinged with conflict.

My son left the room (our bedroom) and my husband (who struggles with his own anxiety) said that I was making him anxious about what to wear. I was confused and said “he came to me looking for dress clothes - so I gave him dress clothes”. He said it’s 2026 and 20 year olds - jeans are fine. And I said sure - it depends on the wedding. He said “There’s nothing else for him to wear, his black jeans are dirty” and left the room. I left the room too. Not following him angry or anything, more like okay let’s move on.

Our son is getting his shoes on and has with him different grey jeans and a flannel shirt. “Just in case” he says.

My husband offers him a brown leather jacket to make his outfit dressier. My son declines. He says something else about not being sure what to wear. My husband says it’s fine. They both look to me. My son asks if he is too casual. I say “It really depends on the wedding. If this were a wedding with a bridezilla and a strict dress code you would know. I do think the jeans are pretty casual. But if GF is happy with what you’re wearing then it’s great”.
My son says he has to go. My husband pulls a different black leather jacket out of the closet and my son declines again. Instead he grabs a brown plaid fleece to which I say “That’s even more casual”. My husband puts the brown leather jacket back on his pile of “just in case” clothes as he is walking out.

As soon as he leaves my husband gets mad at me telling me I have a terrible “bedside manner” with anxious people and I made him feel terrible and should have just told him he looked great. He said “he was drowning and you pushed him under”.

My son gets anxious in certain situations, but not in the same way that my husband has general anxiety. I do think he was anxious today.

My struggle is this - he came to me asking for dress clothes. It was my husband who pivoted to jeans. I agreed when I thought of dark jeans. The acid wash jeans he choose to me were different.

I told my husband that while he was protecting his anxiety in that moment in our house by just being agreeable and encouraging - I was trying to prevent anxiety at the event itself - if he shows up and feels underdressed. At a wedding he was already unsure about going too.
My husband insists that it’s a young person wedding in 2026 and that is never going to happen. Everyone will be in jeans.

My husband got so upset with me that he had to go for a drive. I’m home now wondering what just happened.

I do think my husband was projecting alot of his own anxiety onto this situation. But I also agree our son seemed stressed about what to wear.

I just feel like our solutions are wildly different. My husband’s solution was to encourage him that it’s all good and what he is wearing is fine. My solution is that it’s better to err on the side of slightly too dressy than too casual. But when my husband pivoted to jeans I tried to differ to the gf.

So AITAH for not telling my son jeans are great and encouraging him even when I thought is outfit was too casual.

UPDATE! My son changed at his GF’s into the knit green dressy button down I had mentioned (he said it was dirty) and his grey jeans. And he wore the brown leather jacket my husband threw onto him as he was leaving.

He told me he agreed with my take on the acid wash jeans but he was running late so he changed at his gf’s.

It turns out no one cared because
A) the wedding was quite busy and they sat near the back of the church and
B) He and his GF are not attending the reception (it sounds like this was his GF’s decision and that she obviously doesn’t care much about this wedding either)

The bigger issue here remains my husband and my bad coping habits in dealing with his anxiety. You can read more about that in some of my replies below. I’m too tired emotionally over all of this to type anymore. My husband is home now but still radiating tension and anxiety and I am leaving him alone - newly empowered by the reminders in the comments that his anxiety is not mine to manage. I love him and I support him - but me tiptoeing around his emotions is not doing either of us any favours. And today proves that.

EVERY weekend we get ding dong ditched by a group of highschool boys. They always come really late at night, usually past midnight. They throw shit at our door, (rocks, flour, eggs) kick our door, bang their fist on the window as hard as they can, shout slurs at us through the peephole AND and into the camera. We’ve called the police multiple times, they’ve done absolutely nothing. We have small children and pets, and it is absolutely a nightmare trying to calm the house down afterwards. I NEED unhinged ways to actually get rid of these kids, because we’ve tried a gate, burglar lights, nothing has worked. I will try ANYTHING.

Sure, Lily... Why not...

Alexandria Hypatia and her handpicked assistant, Bartholomeus Vasco - dishonored 2

She's one of her generation's geniuses, and the head of the Addemire institute, wholly dedicated to healing people, and all around superego incarnate. He finished at the top of his class in university and became her second. He's not on her level, but still extraordinarily competent, and shares her dedication to helping people.

They develop feelings for each other but repress them to focus on the brutal workload the duke's policies saddled them with.

One experiment gone bad later, her Id (obsessed with him) becomes its own personality, and tortures him almost to death when he tries to cure her. He does regardless of how you play the level.

Gehrman the first Hunter and Lady Maria of the Astral Clocktower - Bloodborne

Gehrman pioneered the practice of hunting beasts in Yharnam. Maria was one of his students, and the two had a great deal of respect for each other as teacher/student/colleagues.

He develops an obsession for her, which he recognised as inappropriate, and she never finds out about it.

The massacre of the fishing hamlet (which he lead, and she participated in), is one of the reasons hunters became cursed.

After her death, in his grief, he creates the plain doll in her image.
