Hi - I have donations given to Team Everest for Nov 2021 with receipt. But IBM AskHR says no support for donations tax exemption on Form 16. Thus, the donation isn't deducted on my Form 16. Can I now update the donation directly on E-filing.gov u/s 80G for exemption or will that cause an issue ? IBM

He sounds like he works at the same firm as you. 🙂
Lol, that would not work for us. He is the primary parent and does some contract work in a different field

NOBODY, puts baby in a corner.
Also, are you my wife?
But seriously, if he is always on “On” mode, it’s going to be a tough one changing his approach. Him looking to be the center of attention, is probably filling a void somewhere. Looking for an ego stroke. Gotta navigate wisely or you can damage the ego he is bolstering.

OMG he definitely has ADD/ADHD (about a dozen friends with ADHD have confirmed and he doesn’t deny it) but he refuses to get diagnosed because, “it doesn’t affect anyone else but you, other people it bothers don’t stick around.” That was a fun one to hear.
My husband is like this. I go find someone else or others to talk to and engage with. I literally walk away. I don't care what others think about his approach though bc I love him and it doesn't bother me, I just get bored with hearing the same stories. If he said something that offended me though, I would let him know afterwards, and make it clear to not bring that subject up again in a social setting.
This is how my dad is it drives us crazy 🙈I don’t have a solution and it’s a different dynamic because he’s our dad and not a partner, but maybe just choose a little thing instead of the full extent of your annoyance.
For example - if he’s making a generalization that might come off as insulting to someone, later when you guys leave just mention in private “hey one thing I noticed was when you mentioned X, if someone ….” And relate it to a general perception as opposed to you being annoyed by him
Lol get over yourself. You’re not his conversation manager and as long as he’s having fun and not harming people then so what. Go have fun conversations of your own rather than wasting time assessing his
Yeah, I’d prefer that. Unfortunately he often wants to hold court with the whole room so I have to pry individuals away which feels weird.
I dated a guy like that and hated this about him. He insisted on dominating every conversation and would interrupt people.
